Happy Sabbath to the Lord - gospel messages of God's Word

Happy Saturday Happy Sabbath to the Lord Remember the Sabbath day Saturday of the Lord You are listening to your Lord? The choice is ours You are hearing the voice of whom?



13 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that the Son of man? 14 And they said, Some say John the Baptist, others Elijah, others Jeremiah or one of the prophets. 15 But ye, saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? 16 Simon Peter answered him: Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. 17 Jesus said to him: Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father in heaven.

21 From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples that it was necessary that he go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and the third day rise again. 22 And Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, God Have mercy on thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee. 23 But he turned and said to Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan, that became my offense, because you are not thinking about the things of God, but those that be of men.

Matthew 16:13 to 17 and 21 to 23

In this passage we can see that the blessed Apostle Peter received a revelation from the Lord God's Holy Spirit as to who was truly the Lord Jesus Christ.

A person can only receive a revelation from the Lord if He dwell in the Holy Spirit of God. Therefore we can say that at the time of the revelation that the Apostle Peter received from God he was filled with the Spirit of God and in that state he said:

You are the Christ, the Son of the living God. Matthew 16:16

And it was the Lord Jesus himself who revealed this:

Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father in heaven. Matthew 16:17

However, even when the blessed Apostle Peter, filled with the Spirit of God, even with a heart full of love and fidelity to the Lord, and still walking, day after day in communion with the Lord Jesus, it was not for him a permanent guarantee of he would not be attacked by the persistent enemy of God.

It's amazing the human condition. We can be a great moment in communion with the Lord, we can be under endless blessings of the Holy Spirit and born of God and in the blink of an eye, move the condition of the blessed and blessed condition for a simple and dominated by the sinful things the father of evil and sin.

Why are we subjected to this?

Because we are disobedient. Because we're not. Why do not we hear the voice of our God.

When the Apostle Peter was keen to put their views, interests and thoughts instead of the Word of our Lord Jesus Christ he abiu the doors of his heart to the action and the works of evil.

Let's take a very practical and current example:

Let us hear this wonderful word of our God:

Remember the Sabbath day to sanctify it. Six days you shall labor and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God. On that day thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates. For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea and everything in them, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day and hallowed it.

Exodus 20:4

It is interesting to note the initial word:

Remember the Sabbath day to sanctify it. Exodus 20:4

Was it by chance that our God got that word that way. Of course not! Who better than our God to know us and know where we were going to slip. It is evident that as a loving father who is and who never tired of warning us, left us this amazing gift to bless us and not to err for lack of warning:

Remember the Sabbath day to sanctify it. Exodus 20:4

And the people and we do:

Do not listen to our God; Do not obey our God; Sanctify and keep Sunday instead of Saturday, so when we remember to save some days for the Lord; We prefer to listen to the voice of our own interests; We prefer to give more value the things of the flesh than what is the spirit

What good is there for us to say we love our God, we do such good work, we give tithes and offerings, we help this or that, we generate many, many jobs that do and do happen if we do not hear no's and do not obey what does the teachings and commandments that our God is telling us. Now! If we continue to contradict the Word of God who asks us to honor and sanctify the Sabbath day is the day to Him. We would not be acting as the Apostle Peter acted? That's not what happened that day?

Now! If we are acting as the Apostle Peter acted on that occasion we will also hear from our God the same words he heard:

23 But he turned and said to Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan, that became my offense, because you are not thinking about the things of God, but those that be of men. Matthew 16:23

And that the Lord Jesus said this to the Apostle Peter?

Because he did not hear what the Lord said. Because he did not give credence to the words of the Lord Jesus Christ. Because he preferred to hear the voice of your heart to hear the voice of the heart of his God and Creator.

When we forget to sanctify the day Saturday the Sabbath we are not doing the same thing?

Today's decision is ours. Now we know the truth. We will continue to hear the voice of our heart, the voice of the world and the voice of evil or will we hear the voice of our God of Love:



Remember the Sabbath day to sanctify it. Exodus 20:4



Amen and thank God.
