Eyesalve: Testimony of Three

By | Eyesalve

“And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him. 16And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: 17And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” Matthew 3:15-17

 

In this setting we read that Jesus spoke, the Spirit landed on Jesus and the Father spoke. This is the greatest testimony of three this world has ever known.

Eyesalve: Don’t Be A Stranger

By | Eyesalve

“But those that encamp before the tabernacle toward the east, even before the tabernacle of the congregation eastward, shall be Moses, and Aaron and his sons, keeping the charge of the sanctuary for the charge of the children of Israel; and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.” Num. 3:38

 

 

I wonder how many times we have entered the sanctuary, the place where we worship the Lord with the brethren, and have been a stranger to the Lord all week. We cannot allow ourselves to be all caught up in the affairs of this world all week long and then think we can casually stroll into church Sunday morning and everything is alright. Aaron and his sons had the duty of keeping charge of the sanctuary. They were to keep the purity there. You and I have charge over our personal sanctuary, the temple of the Holy Ghost. We must not embrace anything strange to the Lord. We must not allow our temple to be defiled. If we all keep our temple pure, God will have no problem with us when we show up Sunday morning.

By | Eyesalve

“Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?” I Cor. 1:20

 

For starters, the wisdom of this world says give up eternal peace and joy to seek after a few trinkets now.

Eyesalve: He Takes Away Sin

By | Eyesalve

“The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.” Jn. 1:29

 

If repented of, the Lamb of God can and will forgive any sin that has ever been committed in this world. This world has witnessed some of the vilest of sins, sins even beyond comprehension, but the Lamb of God has the authority to forgive them. The Lamb of God came to forgive all the sins of this world, even if you would add them all up. Hallelujah. If you need to, you can repent right now and feel the forgiving power that the Lamb of God gives.

Eyesalve: Glorified in this World

By | Eyesalve

“And they glorified God in me.” Gal. 1:24

 

In this current generation, this world will never glorify God. How do I know that? The bible says the way is narrow that leads to life and few will find it. It also speaks of a coming day when God will pour out His wrath on a rebellious world. Though this world will not glorify God, He can be glorified in this world. That is where you come in.

Eyesalve: You Don’t Need The World’s Help

By | Eyesalve

“And the king of Sodom said unto Abram, Give me the persons, and take the goods to thyself. 22And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lift up mine hand unto the LORD, the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth, 23That I will not take from a thread even to a shoelatchet, and that I will not take any thing that is thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich: 24Save only that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men which went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre; let them take their portion.” Gen. 14:21-24

 

You do not need one shoe latchet of help from the world to fulfill the call of God.

Eyesalve: God Loves To Forgive

By | Eyesalve

“The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.” Jn 1:29

Grace does not make God change His mind about sin, nor does it cause God to look the other way when we sin. Grace is that God LOVES TO FORGIVE SIN. Grace sent “the Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world.”

Eyesalve: The Presence of the Lord (#3)

By | Eyesalve

“Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.” Ps. 16:11

When we assemble together, we need the Lord to be present in such a way that we can feel the life and love of His presence. If the Lord is present in such a way these three things will be evident in God’s people.

1. Spirit of joy that wells up in the believers. For the kingdom of God is righteousness, peace and JOY in the Holy Ghost.

2. There will be a renewed desire to seek God more and know Him more. The more you taste Him the more you want of Him.

3. There will be a renewed desire to live for God. The other things of this world will lose their luster and “grow strangely dim, in the light of His glory and grace.”

Eyesalve: He Will Make You Different

By | Eyesalve

“But against any of the children of Israel shall not a dog move his tongue, against man or beast: that ye may know how that the LORD doth put a difference between the Egyptians and Israel.” Ex. 11:7

Just as the Lord put a difference between Egypt and Israel, He puts a difference between the world and the church, the sinner and the saint. Will you let Him do that distinguishing work in your life? Will you let Him make you different from the citizens of this world?

Eyesalve: Sit By The Well

By | Eyesalve

“And when he went out the second day, behold, two men of the Hebrews strove together: and he said to him that did the wrong, Wherefore smitest thou thy fellow? 14And he said, Who made thee a prince and a judge over us? intendest thou to kill me, as thou killedst the Egyptian? And Moses feared, and said, Surely this thing is known. 15Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of Midian: and he sat down by a well.” Ex. 2:13-15

Sometimes, well-meaning Christians do something they think is right, but neither the church nor the world accept them. Moses’ own brethren rejected him and Pharaoh tried to kill him. When you have these moments in your life, thank God you have a well to go sit down by. “But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.” Jn. 4:34
