Mark 1: 1-20

Come follow Jesus Christ on this journey through the gospel of Mark as He extends His invitation to you to seek for Him with all your heart, mind, soul and strength. Persevere with Him until your appointed time to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit from God in heaven above. Be willing to surrender all so you may receive spiritually in greater measure in return. The time of the revelation of the Messiah has come!

Philemon

Hear the Holy Spirit's call upon your heart to forgive those who have hurt you, and be reconciled in your fellowship as brothers or sisters in Christ Jesus, your Lord and Saviour. He suffered once for your sins so that you may also extend that forgiveness forward to those who have wronged you. Be on guard against the devil who roams about like a lion seeking to destroy, or roadblock, your faith and block the refreshing waters of the Spirit of Christ, that encourage you from within your heart and mind on your journey. Endure to the end and you shall be saved.

Titus 3

Heed the Holy Spirit's call within your heart as He leads you to acknowledge the truth of your need for forgiveness and reconciliation with God, accomplished by the saving work of Jesus Christ our Saviour at Calvary. Grow in your knowledge of who God and Christ are to you, as you stand in times of testing, praying for protection against the enemy's plans to pull you back into legalism, away from the freedom of grace Christ paid for with His blood. The choice is yours to make.

Titus 2

Where do your loyalties lie? Heaven or earth? Live in such a way as to attract others to Jesus Christ so they may also receive the blessing of redemption and relationship with Him, as their daily Lord and eternal Saviour. Obey every prompting from the Holy Spirit to help gently and lovingly lead those He provides to you as children of the faith. Hold tightly to the truth of God's word, both His written word and His Spirit's voice within you, as He pulls you through the veil into His glorious presence.

Titus 1

Are you spiritually ready to face the opposition, in order to be used by God to help bring those who live in darkness into the light of the truth of Christ Jesus and their need for Him as their personal Saviour? Open the soil of your heart to a full surrender to the Holy Spirit, to train and guide you as you willingly walk into opportunities that He can speak into your heart. Obey Him as to what to say or not say, giving up your natural sinful impulse to human reactivity and instead, embrace others' souls with Christ's love and patience, as we wait upon the Holy Spirit to silently work at planting His truth seeds within their hearts.

2 Timothy 4

Keep your eyes on Jesus to endure these challenging end times. You will be surrounded by ridicule and rejection, as people will want to surround themselves with others who agree with their views on sin and life in general. Remain in the truth you have been inwardly taught, by the Holy Spirit, who has quickened your soul for an eternity of celebration and righteousness with Christ Jesus your Lord and Saviour. Forgive those who are not yet spiritually transformed. Pray for God's grace and love to pursue them until they surrender and receive the life and peace they have been always searching for yet could not find in this world alone. 

2 Timothy 3

Be on guard against false teachers who oppose the truth of Christ and God's plan of salvation. They look for vulnerable people who don't know the truth and don't know Jesus personally, in hopes of getting them to join their new age church mindset. Preaching love of self and love of pleasure, they may act religious but behind their facade is a demonic spirit of warfare and deception, set against God's purpose in sending His Son, your need for sorrow for your sin, humble repentance, and to live a new spiritual existence feeding from the inspiration of the word of God, our source of life.

2 Timothy 2

Are you willing to endure any trial God has chosen for you to pass through, in order to grow upwards spiritually in heart knowledge and kinship with Christ and His sufferings? Will you allow Him to choose which kind of "dish" He will design you to be, so you may bring glory and honor to His name, by feeding His lambs and sheep truth and sustenance needed for their own spiritual growth? Live in such a way as to not grieve the Holy Spirit. Be a good soldier for Christ and be ready at all times to obey His command. God is the Farm Manager and knows what He is doing. Don't be sidetracked by the devil and his schemes as he works to gain a foothold in your life to try to trip you up, through the arguments of unbelievers. Remember who you are and to Whom you belong.

2 Timothy 1

Understand your calling into Christ's ministry as a blessing and nothing to be ashamed of. He is there to guide you through the tests and trials that lay ahead. Use these opportunities to glorify Him and all He has done in love for you, knowing your testimony will be used by Christ through the inner working of the Holy Spirit to seek and save those who are lost so they may also attain such a great salvation. Pray for the lost and obey every command from the Lord. The battle is His and He is Victor! Praise God!

1 Timothy 6

Give honor and respect to your position, doing all things in righteousness, in scope of the gospel of Christ. Flee and forsake the lusts of the flesh and worldly gain but rather lay hold upon eternal life. The love of money and gain is the root of all evil. Fight the good fight of faith, by following the Holy Spirit to resist the temptations and pitfalls of the devil, as he wages a spiritual warfare. Don't engage in disputes and contentions but stick to the truth of the word of God and be an example of love towards others.
