Wig’s Word of God Today 11-7-2010
Pray for us, so that the Word of the Lord may speed forward and be glorified, as it did among you, and that we may be delivered from perverse and wicked people, for not all have faith. But the Lord is faithful; He will strengthen you and guard you from the evil one. Thessalonians 3:1-4
2 Maccabees 7:1-2, 9-14, Psalm 17:1, 5-6, 8, 15, 2 Thessalonians 2:16-3:5 & Luke 20:27-38
To strengthen our work in Christ Jesus allows us a confidence bestowed on us by the grace of God. The Word of God is our source of all decisions in life and we must rely only on its divine teachings to accomplish His Will in all we do. In Luke 20, we learn how the Sadducees questioned Jesus denying that the resurrection of the dead was possible. They were a people of “high priestly stature” who didn’t like change and therefore rejected the notion of resurrection according to the Hebrew bible. Jesus reminds them that just as Moses called out to God saying, “‘Lord, ‘the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob; and He is not God of the dead, but of the living, for to Him all are alive.” Luke 20:38 Loving your love of Christ, we become alive in His love in life and in death. Be alive in Him as He is in you.
And so we pray: Father God, make us alive in You in all things allowing us to grow in life as in death seeking the Promise of Everlasting Life in Christ Jesus. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.
God Bless,

Romans 8:28
Deny Not the Resurrection
Tortured and whipped
Eyes gouged with a stick
Strength in Him by courage in belief
Ancestors laws their relief
Seven brothers stood tall
Proving faith above all
No matter if death they endured
They embraced their call
Appeared in Glory
The Lord of joy without deceit
Steadfast and unaltered
Salvation for Humanity to greet
Be it good deed
Be it your word
Live in His Truth
No lies unheard
Deny not the Resurrection
Life will indeed come to know
Heaven’s door to be opened
For the meek and the poor
