Isaiah 40:21-24 KJV Have ye not known? have ye not heard? hath it not been told you from the beginning? have ye not understood from the foundations of the earth? [22] It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in: [23] That bringeth the princes to nothing; he maketh the judges of the earth as vanity. [24] Yea, they shall not be planted; yea, they shall not be sown: yea, their stock shall not take root in the earth: and he shall also blow upon them, and they shall wither, and the whirlwind shall take them away as stubble. Isaiah 41:4 KJV Who hath wrought and done it, calling the generations from the beginning? I the LORD, the first, and with the last; I am he. 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; [2] By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. [3] For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; [4] And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: Romans 3:24-25 KJV Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: [25] Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; ... ... 📜📜📜✝️✝️✝️🙏🙏🙏😎😎😎 #JesusIsGod #Bible #Jesus #JesusIsReal #JesusChristSavior #JesusIsGod #JesusFollower

The Great Falling Away vs. The Great Awakening

When people talk about the “last days,” some picture only darkness, while others imagine a massive revival. Scripture actually presents both realities at once: a great falling away from truth, and a great awakening to Christ. The Great Falling Away The Apostle Paul cautioned believers: • “That Day will not come unless the falling away comes first” (2 Thessalonians 2:3). • “Some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits” (1 Timothy 4:1). This isn’t about unbelievers rejecting God—they already do that. It’s about many who once claimed Christ drifting toward teachings that feel easier, yet stray from biblical truth (2 Timothy 4:3-4). The Great Awakening At the very same time, Jesus promised something powerful: • “This gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world…and then the end will come” (Matthew 24:14). • “In the last days…I will pour out my Spirit on all people” (Acts 2:17). • John saw a “great multitude that no one could count” from every nation, standing before the Lamb (Revelation 7:9-14). So even as some turn away, countless others are discovering the truth of Yeshua and stepping into new life. Two Realities, One Timeline How can these opposite movements coexist? Scripture gives us glimpses: • Isaiah 60:1-2: Deep darkness covers the earth, yet God’s glory rises on His people. • Matthew 13:24-30: Wheat and weeds grow together until the harvest. • Romans 11:25-26: Some resist, yet salvation still breaks through. We are living in this overlap: deception rising while revival spreads. What It Means for Us The falling away warns us to stay anchored in Scripture and close to Jesus. The awakening calls us to share the Good News boldly, to shine in a world that desperately needs light. We don’t choose whether it’s apostasy or awakening—it’s both. But we can choose where we stand. “Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you” (Isaiah 60:1). ✝️ CONTINUED IN COMMENTS ⬇️⬇️⬇️ #Bible #God #Jesus

📖 What Is the Bible, Really? A Love Letter from God

If someone handed you a book and told you it was written over the span of 1,500 years, across three continents, by 40 different authors from all walks of life—but that it all told one unified story—you might be intrigued. That book is the Bible. It’s not just a religious book. It’s a divine record of history, poetry, prophecy, and redemption. It’s the inspired Word of God—66 books that tell the story of the universe, Heaven, Earth, and humanity. It’s a love letter from our Creator that explains who we are, why we’re here, and what happens next. What’s Inside? The Bible begins with the creation of the universe and of mankind. From there, it becomes a powerful, sometimes tragic, always intentional documentation of human choices—some faithful, others rebellious. It’s filled with: • Genealogies and historical records • Laws and covenants • Prophecies that came true—and some that still await fulfillment • Stories of great faith and courage (like David, Esther, and Daniel) • Heartbreaking consequences of sin and rebellion • Poetry and praise songs, especially in Psalms and Song of Solomon And all that? That’s just the Old Testament. Two Halves of One Story The Bible is divided into two main sections: • The Old Testament (before Jesus) • The New Testament (because of Jesus) The New Testament begins with the birth of Jesus Christ, the promised Messiah. It contains: • His life, teachings, miracles, death, and resurrection • A record of how His followers (the apostles) spread the Good News throughout the known world • Letters of encouragement, instruction, and warning to early churches • And a powerful prophetic vision of what’s to come in the book of Revelation 🙏🏼 CONTINUED IN COMMENTS ⬇️⬇️⬇️ #BibleHistory #Bible #BibleTruths #Gospel #Jesus #God #Scripture

I Don’t Know How To Pray - Start Here ❤️

If you’ve ever thought, “I don’t know how to pray,” you’re not alone. Many people feel this way—even lifelong believers sometimes struggle with finding the right words. But prayer isn’t about perfection. It’s about connection. It’s about acknowledging that you want to be near God—and trusting that He wants to be near you. Prayer is not a performance. It’s a conversation with your Creator, who loves you more than you can imagine. ⸻ Start with the Right Mindset Before you speak a word, take a moment to breathe. Let your heart focus on this truth: you are not talking into the air. You are speaking to the God who made you, who sees you, and who longs to hear your voice. Jesus, the Son of God, gave us a model for prayer in what we call “The Lord’s Prayer.” But He never meant it as a rigid formula—it’s a framework, a guide. Let’s walk through it together in simple, real-world terms. ⸻ Step One: Come in Peace and Focus Close your eyes if it helps. Try to picture God. If you don’t have a mental image, imagine a radiant light like the sun—bright, warm, but not burning. Picture yourself standing in that light. You’re not just near it—you’re known, loved, and invited in. That’s what God’s presence feels like. ⸻ Step Two: Praise Him Begin with awe. God is the Creator of the universe—of every galaxy and atom, every heartbeat and breath. He’s the reason the earth spins and your lungs fill with air. You can start simply: “God, You are awesome. You made everything. You made me. Thank You.” ⸻ Step Three: Trust Him Let Him know you trust Him—even if that trust is shaky and growing. “I don’t have all the answers, but I believe You do. I want to trust You with my life.” ⸻ Step Four: Confess and Ask for Forgiveness Don’t be afraid to admit where you’ve gone wrong. He already knows. And He already loves you. 🙏🏼Continued In Comments ⬇️⬇️⬇️ #Bible #God #Jesus #BibleStudy #Help #Christian #Christ #Prayer
