From this man’s descendants God, according to His promise, has brought to Israel a Savior, Jesus

Wig’s Word of God Today 5-19-2011

From this man’s descendants God, according to His promise, has brought to Israel a Savior, Jesus. Acts 13:23

Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever receives the one I send receives Me, and whoever receives Me receives the One Who sent Me. John 13:20

Acts 13:13-25, Psalm 89 & John 13:16-20

In Acts 13 we have Saul turned Paul testifying to the Truth in Antioch in Pisidia and he was asked by the synagogue officials; “My brothers, if one of you has a word of exhortation for the people, please speak.” Paul stood and proclaimed the history of David’s descendants that was testified to in the Old Testament by the Prophets. His message is clear: “From this man’s descendants God, according to His promise,
has brought to Israel a Savior, Jesus
.” Acts 13:23

John 13 brings about the Washing of the Disciples Feet and the naming of Judas as the traitor of Christ. Jesus describes the need for betrayer to accomplish his betrayal so “the Scripture might be fulfilled.” Never do we hear He is mad at this occurrence nor do we hear Him stating anything ugly at living the Will of God for the Salvation of Humanity. There is a lot to learn from this passage because we fail to see in our own lives the need to wash the feet or extend a hand of charity to those less fortunate than us or to maintain an constant level of thanksgiving even when people do ugly things to us.

Many in the world feel it is beyond them to do something that has been labeled as a servant’s job. This is exactly the reason why Jesus washed His Disciples feet; “I have given you a model to follow, so that as I have done for you, you should also do. Amen, amen, I say to you, no slave is greater than his master nor any messenger greater than the one who sent him. If you understand this, blessed are you if you do it.” John  13:15-17 Even the one who betrays you should be given the same love and prayers as the one who loves you. Love your love of Christ and fulfill His acts of faith, charity and love. Amen.

So we ask in prayer: My LORD and My God, we pray today for continued improvement of Augie Silva and we thank You LORD for his continued improvement. LORD we pray today for the people who have lost touch with You especially my friend’s daughter, Vanessa. May all who have allowed the secular world of flash, flair and selfishness be reunited with Your Son’s Truth and forgive to live in peace for Your Glory. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

God Bless,

About Thomas Joe Cruz-Wiggins

My name is Thomas Joe Cruz-Wiggins. I first recognize Christ as my Savior in all things. I am married to my best friend and Soul-Mate in Christ, Antonia Cruz-Wiggins. I am a University of Florida graduate of Public Relations, a US Navy Veteran and a Montessori Elementary School Teacher. I love life and God's help of living it! I follow the Light of Christ in everything I do! I love writing poetry about the Lord and I create a new poem from each Scripture I discern in my daily mediations. You can almost follow the poem by looking at the readings for each day. I started sharing this small yet personal scripture study four years ago when one day I was reading the bible and the Holy Spirit moved me to share the verse with a group of about 40 Christian Men in my Emmaus Ministry who get together weekly to celebrate the Lord and talk about His Truth. Since then the number of people I share my study with has grown to over 650. I enjoy an open loving dialog about anything I write and I have strived to write what I know the Lord wants me to share steering clear of offending anyone’s spiritual beliefs because I share my work with people I meet in public when I strike up a conversation about the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It took almost 2 years to begin writing what the Holy Spirit leads me to say. I believe that all Christians must unite as One Body of Christ’s Love to accomplish the joy of living with love, honor and respect. I reach out to Humanity to share His Salvation be it Baptist, Catholic, Protestant, Episcopal or any other religion or belief. I seek to mirror His Compassion, His Simpleness, His Charity and His Love. While I am Catholic, I believe we must all unite in the Lord to become One Body in Christ to bring our children back to The Church. I am humbled to share my study with you. Please feel free to comment any time. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is my Joy because I am a Disciple of His Truth. I am honored to share my Bible study with anyone you may recommend. As always, I remain, Yours in Christ, Thomas Joe Cruz-Wiggins
