My 2019 in review

Parenting: Maeleth is turning 4 in February 2020. This year we witnessed as she reached so many milestones: feeding herself full meals, fully toilet trained, able to write, read, play keyboard, sing, do karate, dance ballet, swim, do addition and subtraction, pray better than before, etc.
These are all so precious. Our dear baby girl is growing so fast and we just want to hold on to all these priceless moments that we shared.
She has not gone to school yet, so we will have to be led by the Lord whether to enroll her in 2020.

Marriage: Amilee and I haven’t had much opportunity for one on one time such as date nights.
I thank God for such a godly, understanding wife who doesn’t ask for much material stuff.
I would like to pamper her more when our financial situation changes. She’s really not complained at all about our situation. I’m a blessed man.

Health: I think this year is Amilee and I’s healthiest year yet. We didn’t start off the year strong, but I think we finished stronger and in better shape than before. Praise Jesus for keeping us in good health. Believing for increasing strength, health and youth renewal in 2020 and beyond.

Work: I don’t work a job. Everyday I’m writing and writing content to post at least twice here on this Facebook page, Bible studies for our patrons and moderating posts in our “Daily Grace Inspirations” FB group.
I thank the Lord that ever since I asked for fresh revelations to write about daily since 2018, it’s been pouring in like a mighty river every day. He has never failed me once.
Since 2018 I’ve written almost 450 devotionals, a few books and submitted a Christian fiction novel to a publisher.
It gives me a great refreshing feeling inside when readers tell me that they’ve been positively impacted by the writings, and especially when they send testimonies of how a revelation shared has transformed their life.
I fondly remember one testimony where a sister in Christ experienced restoration in her marriage by resting from her self-efforts and just choosing to rest in Jesus’ finished work and His love for her.
I’m really thankful to Jesus for this precious writing gift. All glory to Him!

Finances: This is the only area I’m unsatisfied with. Throughout 2019 our savings were dwindling and we end the year much lesser than when the year started.
It feels as though my family is the children of Israel and the army of Egypt is closing in on us at the Red Sea. But I saw that God provided work for us and never let us starve.
The dwindling finances make me feel like this year was a valley year. Some days I just question myself and ask if I’m making a huge mistake and sabotaging the future of my family.
We don’t own our own home yet, the income is pathetic and our bills are huge in comparison.
But then I turned around and look at all your encouraging comments and messages telling me that you’ve been positively impacted by my work and that just keeps me going.
I know God will not fail us. He will not let His children starve or beg for bread. When the time comes, I will raise my rod and Jesus will part the Red Sea for us and make a way.
He shall surely supply all our needs abundantly according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus!

“being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.” (Philippians‬ ‭1:6‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

Dear brethren, I’m sure you’ve experienced your share of good days and bad days in 2019.
Some days were probably so terrible that you felt like giving up altogether.

However speaking for myself, I believe that if Jesus led me to start writing for Him and that He has been providing the flow of revelation faithfully, He will surely complete the good work and take good care of my family.
The responsibility to complete the work rests on Him, not me. I can breathe easy knowing that.

Likewise, Jesus who began a good work in you will surely complete it until the Rapture happens. What has He led you to do?
Even if it hasn’t borne much fruit yet, keep walking in that calling. Continue and don’t give up—you shall sure reap a good harvest and receive rewards for it.
Even though you sow in tears, you will reap with joy.

Jesus’ Finished Work at the Cross Has Always Been Effective

A reader of my blog asked a question:
“I see that Old Testament saints were also saved by grace. Did they go directly to heaven before Christ died? Were they made perfect as we are said to be in Ephesians. Since God is the same yesterday, today and forever, how was it different?”

Here is my answer:

Yes they are saved the same way—by faith in Yahweh (the pre-incarnate Christ). When you see the words often translated as “the Lord” in the Old Testament, it’s actually the Tetragrammaton yud hei vav hei (YHVH) In Hebrew. No one is sure how it is pronounced, but many believe it is Yahweh.

“subjecting yourselves to one another in the fear of Christ.” (Ephesians‬ ‭5:21‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

The Old Testament teaches us the benefits of “the fear of Yahweh”.
In the verse above, Paul clearly defines Yahweh as Christ. Yahweh is Jesus.
This fear is not a slavish fear as in a dread of punishment for sins, but rather a reverential, worshipful awe towards Jesus who is so powerful and yet chose to humble Himself to suffer and die for us at the cross.

The cross is an eternal work able to reach throughout time (past, present and future) and cleanse even Adam’s sins.
It’s eternal because Jesus is God who exists outside of time and His blood has that same quality—able to transcend time.

This means that His blood has always been effective to cleanse people of their sins when they place their faith in Him.

The main difference between Old Testament saints and us is that they didn’t have the Holy Spirit indwelling them.
However they were justified by faith and cleansed by Jesus’ blood just as we are.

That’s why Enoch and Elijah could be taken into Heaven before Jesus died at the cross.
If the work of the cross was not eternal, they as sinful men (all have fallen short of the glory of God) could not enter Heaven.

Another account whereby we see the eternal effect of the cross is when Samson used a jawbone of a dead donkey to defeat the Philistines.

“When he came to Lehi, the Philistines shouted as they met him. Then Yahweh’s Spirit came mightily on him, and the ropes that were on his arms became as flax that was burned with fire, and his bands dropped from off his hands. He found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, put out his hand, took it, and struck a thousand men with it. Samson said, “With the jawbone of a donkey, heaps on heaps; with the jawbone of a donkey I have struck a thousand men.”” ‭‭(Judges‬ ‭15:14-16‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

Samson swore a Nazirite vow which means he wasn’t allowed to touch a dead body.

““‘All the days that he separates himself to Yahweh he shall not go near a dead body.” ‭‭(Numbers‬ ‭6:6‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

If it was purely based on the Law, he would have sinned and the Holy Spirit that was upon him would have left him when he touched the jaw of the donkey—however the Spirit didn’t leave him, and even continued to empower him to destroy all his enemies.

In the Old Testament, we see Yahweh being merciful to Israel. Their punishments were lenient compared to their sins.
There is no record that Israel suffered the full brunt of the long description of the curse of the Law in Deuteronomy 28.

Yahweh was able to be merciful and lenient to them because of the righteous foundation of the cross.
When Moses was on Mount Sinai, he interceded on behalf of the children of Israel and Yahweh did not destroy them.

Why did Yahweh tell Moses that He was angry and wanted to destroy the children of Israel?
It’s because He wanted Moses to intercede on their behalf—He didn’t need Moses’ permission to righteously strike all of them dead.

“Yahweh said to Moses, “I have seen these people, and behold, they are a stiff-necked people. Now therefore leave me alone, that my wrath may burn hot against them, and that I may consume them; and I will make of you a great nation.” Moses begged Yahweh his God, and said, “Yahweh, why does your wrath burn hot against your people, that you have brought out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand? Why should the Egyptians speak, saying, ‘He brought them out for evil, to kill them in the mountains, and to consume them from the surface of the earth?’ Turn from your fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against your people. Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, to whom you swore by your own self, and said to them, ‘I will multiply your offspring as the stars of the sky, and all this land that I have spoken of I will give to your offspring, and they shall inherit it forever.’” Yahweh repented of the evil which he said he would do to his people.” ‭‭(Exodus‬ ‭32:9-14‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

God is always looking for intercessors who would stand in the gap to pray for others so that God can righteously bless mankind without infringing man’s free will.

The apostle Paul describes the work of the cross as a mysterious secret that was hidden in Old Testament times but has since been revealed.
It was Yahweh’s trump card that no one ever expected—that God would go so far as to die for those He loved so that they could live with Him forever.

“Now to him who is able to establish you according to my Good News and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery which has been kept secret through long ages, but now is revealed, and by the Scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the eternal God, is made known for obedience of faith to all the nations;” ‭‭(Romans‬ ‭14:24-25‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

The work of the cross has always been effective to cleanse people who believe in Jesus (Yahweh).
Just as Abraham’s faith was counted as righteousness, everyone is justified the same way—by faith.
