The Genealogy of Jesus Christ

1 This is the genealogy of Jesus the Messiah the son of David, the son of Abraham: 
2 Abraham was the father of Isaac, Isaac the father of Jacob, Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers, 
3 Judah the father of Perez and Zerah, whose mother was Tamar, Perez the father of Hezron, Hezron the father of Ram, 
4 Ram the father of Amminadab, Amminadab the father of Nahshon, Nahshon the father of Salmon, 
5 Salmon the father of Boaz, whose mother was Rahab, Boaz the father of Obed, whose mother was Ruth, Obed the father of Jesse, 
6 and Jesse the father of King David. David was the father of Solomon, whose mother had been Uriah’s wife, 
7 Solomon the father of Rehoboam, Rehoboam the father of Abijah, Abijah the father of Asa, 
8 Asa the father of Jehoshaphat, Jehoshaphat the father of Jehoram, Jehoram the father of Uzziah, 
9 Uzziah the father of Jotham, Jotham the father of Ahaz, Ahaz the father of Hezekiah, 
10 Hezekiah the father of Manasseh, Manasseh the father of Amon, Amon the father of Josiah, 
11 and Josiah the father of Jeconiah and his brothers at the time of the exile to Babylon.
12 After the exile to Babylon: Jeconiah was the father of Shealtiel, Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel, 
13 Zerubbabel the father of Abihud, Abihud the father of Eliakim, Eliakim the father of Azor, 
14 Azor the father of Zadok, Zadok the father of Akim, Akim the father of Elihud, 
15 Elihud the father of Eleazar, Eleazar the father of Matthan, Matthan the father of Jacob, 
16 and Jacob the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, and Mary was the mother of Jesus who is called the Messiah. 
17Thus there were fourteen generations in all from Abraham to David, fourteen from David to the exile to Babylon, and fourteen from the exile to the Messiah.

Joseph Accepts Jesus as His Son

18 This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about : His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit. 
19 Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law, and yet did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly. 
20 But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.
21 She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.” 
22 All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: 
23 “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel” (which means “God with us”). 
24 When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife. 

25 But he did not consummate their marriage until she gave birth to a son. And he gave him the name Jesus.

The Magi Visit the Messiah

1 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magifrom the east came to Jerusalem 
2 and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.” 
3 When King Herod heard this he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him.
4 When he had called together all the people’s chief priests and teachers of the law, he asked them where the Messiah was to be born. 
5 “In Bethlehem in Judea,” they replied, “for this is what the prophet has written: 
6 “ ‘But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; for out of you will come a ruler who will shepherd my people Israel.’ ” 
7 Then Herod called the Magi secretly and found out from them the exact time the star had appeared. 
8 He sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and search carefully for the child. As soon as you find him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship him.” 
9 After they had heard the king, they went on their way, and the star they had seen when it rose went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where the child was. 
10 When they saw the star, they were overjoyed. 
11 On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. 
12 And having been warned in a dream not to go back to Herod, they returned to their country by another route.

The Escape to Egypt

13 When they had gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. “Get up,” he said, “take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you, for Herod is going to search for the child to kill him.” 
14 So he got up, took the child and his mother during the night and left for Egypt, 
15 where he stayed until the death of Herod. And so was fulfilled what the Lord had said through the prophet: “Out of Egypt I called my son.” 
16 When Herod realized that he had been outwitted by the Magi, he was furious, and he gave orders to kill all the boys in Bethlehem and its vicinity who were two years old and under, in accordance with the time he had learned from the Magi. 
17 Then what was said through the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled: 
18 “A voice is heard in Ramah, weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children and refusing to be comforted, because they are no more.”

The Return to Nazareth

19 After Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt
20 and said, “Get up, take the child and his mother and go to the land of Israel, for those who were trying to take the child’s life are dead.” 
21 So he got up, took the child and his mother and went to the land of Israel. 
22 But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning in Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. Having been warned in a dream, he withdrew to the district of Galilee, 
23and he went and lived in a town called Nazareth. So was fulfilled what was said through the prophets, that he would be called a Nazarene.

Don't Give Up


CHRISTMAS IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER
 
This time of the year some people are very happy, and some people are very sad and is not looking forward to Christmas, never mind we should be thankful that we are alive

                I THINK  Christmas is one of the most beautiful time of the year
I might be going through things ,so is most people , but I have to keep telling myself  things might be going wrong {BUT I WILL TRUST IN MY GOD JEHOVAH} it is like JOB saying   THOUGH you slay me LORD,I SHALL COME FORTH AS GOLD  . 



Mark 1New International Version (NIV)
John the Baptist Prepares the Way
The beginning of the good news about Jesus the Messiah,[a] the Son of God,[b] as it is written in Isaiah the prophet:
“I will send my messenger ahead of you,
    who will prepare your way”[c]
“a voice of one calling in the wilderness,
‘Prepare the way for the Lord,
    make straight paths for him.’”[d]
And so John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. The whole Judean countryside and all the people of Jerusalem went out to him. Confessing their sins, they were baptized by him in the Jordan River. John wore clothing made of camel’s hair, with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey. And this was his message: “After me comes the one more powerful than I, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie. I baptize you with[e] water, but he will baptize you with[f] the Holy Spirit.”
The Baptism and Testing of Jesus
At that time Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan. 10 Just as Jesus was coming up out of the water, he saw heaven being torn open and the Spirit descending on him like a dove. 11 And a voice came from heaven: “You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased.”
12 At once the Spirit sent him out into the wilderness, 13 and he was in the wilderness forty days, being tempted[g] by Satan. He was with the wild animals, and angels attended him.
Jesus Announces the Good News
14 After John was put in prison, Jesus went into Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God. 15 “The time has come,” he said. “The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news!”
Jesus Calls His First Disciples
16 As Jesus walked beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen.17 “Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will send you out to fish for people.” 18 At once they left their nets and followed him.
19 When he had gone a little farther, he saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John in a boat, preparing their nets. 20 Without delay he called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men and followed him.
Jesus Drives Out an Impure Spirit
21 They went to Capernaum, and when the Sabbath came, Jesus went into the synagogue and began to teach. 22 The people were amazed at his teaching, because he taught them as one who had authority, not as the teachers of the law. 23 Just then a man in their synagogue who was possessed by an impure spirit cried out, 24 “What do you want with us,Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God!”
25 “Be quiet!” said Jesus sternly. “Come out of him!” 26 The impure spirit shook the man violently and came out of him with a shriek.
27 The people were all so amazed that they asked each other, “What is this? A new teaching—and with authority! He even gives orders to impure spirits and they obey him.” 28 News about him spread quickly over the whole region of Galilee.
Jesus Heals Many
29 As soon as they left the synagogue, they went with James and John to the home of Simon and Andrew. 30 Simon’s mother-in-law was in bed with a fever, and they immediately told Jesus about her. 31 So he went to her, took her hand and helped her up. The fever left her and she began to wait on them.
32 That evening after sunset the people brought to Jesus all the sick and demon-possessed. 33 The whole town gathered at the door, 34 and Jesus healed many who had various diseases. He also drove out many demons, but he would not let the demons speak because they knew who he was.
Jesus Prays in a Solitary Place
35 Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed. 36 Simon and his companions went to look for him, 37 and when they found him, they exclaimed: “Everyone is looking for you!”
38 Jesus replied, “Let us go somewhere else—to the nearby villages—so I can preach there also. That is why I have come.” 39 So he traveled throughout Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and driving out demons.
Jesus Heals a Man With Leprosy
40 A man with leprosy[h] came to him and begged him on his knees, “If you are willing, you can make me clean.”
41 Jesus was indignant.[i] He reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” 42 Immediately the leprosy left him and he was cleansed.
43 Jesus sent him away at once with a strong warning: 44 “See that you don’t tell this to anyone. But go, show yourself to the priest and offer the sacrifices that Moses commanded for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.” 45 Instead he went out and began to talk freely, spreading the news. As a result, Jesus could no longer enter a town openly but stayed outside in lonely places. Yet the people still came to him from everywhere.

Look Ahead

 We are all afraid of bad things happening

No Way

 NO WAY.   

Why worry, some people tend to worry every day of their life ,and not knowing what to do next, all I can say is  that we are not alone. Every one that is born ( GOD) has assigned an angel to be with them all the day of their lives, this is one of their guardian angels, but apart from this there are millions and millions as many billions times billions of angels that lives in heaven they go up and down to earth every day and night to help us, even though we most of the time do not realize that the holy angels from holy heaven, from the presence of almighty GOD the one and only living and true GOD.


So there are thousands of angels that help us from time to time . We are never alone. There are good and bad angels , the good ones are of almighty God- but the bad and wicked ones are of Satan the devil. but we do not have to fear them.

Revelation 2




Revelation 2New International Version (NIV)

To the Church in Ephesus

“To the angel[a] of the church in Ephesus write:
These are the words of him who holds the seven stars in his right handand walks among the seven golden lampstands. I know your deeds,your hard work and your perseverance. I know that you cannot tolerate wicked people, that you have tested those who claim to be apostles but are not, and have found them false. You have persevered and have endured hardships for my name, and have not grown weary.
Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken the love you had at first. Consider how far you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first. If you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place. But you have this in your favor: You hate the practices of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.
Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who is victorious, I will give the right to eat from the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.

To the Church in Smyrna

“To the angel of the church in Smyrna write:
These are the words of him who is the First and the Last, who died and came to life again. I know your afflictions and your poverty—yet you are rich! I know about the slander of those who say they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan. 10 Do not be afraid of what you are about to suffer. I tell you, the devil will put some of you in prison to test you, and you will suffer persecution for ten days. Be faithful,even to the point of death, and I will give you life as your victor’s crown.
11 Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches. The one who is victorious will not be hurt at all by the second death.

To the Church in Pergamum

12 “To the angel of the church in Pergamum write:
These are the words of him who has the sharp, double-edged sword.13 I know where you live—where Satan has his throne. Yet you remain true to my name. You did not renounce your faith in me, not even in the days of Antipas, my faithful witness, who was put to death in your city—where Satan lives.
14 Nevertheless, I have a few things against you: There are some among you who hold to the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to entice the Israelites to sin so that they ate food sacrificed to idols and committed sexual immorality. 15 Likewise, you also have those who hold to the teaching of the Nicolaitans. 16 Repent therefore! Otherwise, I will soon come to you and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.
17 Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who is victorious, I will give some of the hidden manna. I will also give that person a white stone with a new namewritten on it, known only to the one who receives it.

To the Church in Thyatira

18 “To the angel of the church in Thyatira write:
These are the words of the Son of God, whose eyes are like blazing fire and whose feet are like burnished bronze. 19 I know your deeds,your love and faith, your service and perseverance, and that you are now doing more than you did at first.
20 Nevertheless, I have this against you: You tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophet. By her teaching she misleads my servants into sexual immorality and the eating of food sacrificed to idols. 21 I have given her time to repent of her immorality, but she is unwilling. 22 So I will cast her on a bed of suffering, and I will make those who commit adultery with her suffer intensely, unless they repent of her ways. 23 I will strike her children dead. Then all the churches will know that I am he who searches hearts and minds, and I will repay each of you according to your deeds.
24 Now I say to the rest of you in Thyatira, to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets, ‘I will not impose any other burden on you, 25 except to hold on to what you have until I come.’
26 To the one who is victorious and does my will to the end, I will give authority over the nations 27 that one ‘will rule them with an iron scepter and will dash them to pieces like pottery’[b]—just as I have received authority from my Father. 28 I will also give that one the morning star. 29 Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

why read the holy bible

Why Read the Holy Bible(king James version)the amplified bible explain things better.




The word of God is powerful ,it is sharper than a 2 edged  sword
cutting to the sunder of our soul, it penetrate our hearts and soul and mind. As we read it or hear it, it washes our spirit that is within us. You might not read it with your eyes, you might just hear it with your ears, even just hearing it is so powerful .And as I looked up towards heaven, heaven opened, then I saw all the angels ,as far as I could see were all dressed in white ,they gather all around looking towards us down here on  Earth they were ready and waiting. For behold the time has come for Lord Jesus Christ to return for the(body of Christ )the Church. It Is time to stop playing silly games. What I mean is stop hating God who is our father
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We must realize in our hearts that we are all sinners, because we have broken one or more of the 10 commandments found in the old Testament of the holy bible(Exodus 20).
The gift of God is Eternal Life, it is free, we just have to come
to almighty God(Jehovah God)in English, but God name in the Hebrew Language  is (YAHWEH)in the Old Testement ,
Almighty God always spoke to the Hebrew and Jewish people in the Hebrew language. The whole Bible was written by  Jewish people-men, then a few centuary  ago they decided to translate it in the Greek language, then the English language.
JESUS CHRIST OUR MESSIAH IS A JEW AND WHEN HE DIED AND AROSE AGAIN HE WAS STILL A JEW HE HAD HIS OWN BODY WITH THE NAIL PRINT IN HIS BODY,BUT HIS BODY WERE TOUCHED BY GOD WHICH MADE HIS BODY ETERNAL
AND AT THE SAME TIME A HEAVENLY BODY.
So when he comes again he will sit on the throne of king David and rule as king in JERUSALEM- ISRAEL
This is just a short prayer
Father God I thank you that you send  your only begotton  son Jesus Christ to earth to die and pay the price for my sins
so that I can come to you face to face  and talk to you in
 prayer .Lord Jesus I want all of my sins forgiven ,You bought me for a price by shedding your precious blood on the cross.  
Please forgive my sins. You said that the only way a person can get into heaven is through you. I renounce Satan the devil .please come into my heart and be the lord of my life ,I repent of my sins. Your words say that if a person confess with their mouth ,Lord Jesus  and believe in their heart that Jesus is the son of the living God, and that when he died he arose from the dead, because God the father touched the body of his son (YESHUA) JESUS CHRIST and put back his spirit into his dead body and he came alive again. I now accept you as my Lord and saviour .I am now born again with Jesus living in my heart

And the Holy Spirit seal me by put ting a special mark on me to say that I belong to JESUS CHRIST  and I am now a child of God, and belong to the family of God, thank you Jesus. AMEN.
