December 11th 2024 – One True King

“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and of peace there will be no end, on the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish it and to uphold it with justice and with righteousness from this time forth and forevermore.” (Isaiah 9:6-7)

In a world that often seems chaotic and uncertain, we can find great comfort and security in knowing that there is One who reigns supreme. Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is the one true King whose kingdom will never end.

Though earthly kings and rulers may come and go, Jesus Christ is the King of kings and Lord of lords. His throne is established forever, and His dominion knows no bounds. From the beginning of time, He has been sovereign over all creation, and one day every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that He is Lord.

As the true and rightful King, Jesus is worthy of our complete devotion and allegiance. He did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many. Though He is exalted high above all, He humbled Himself to walk among us, to understand our struggles, and to offer us the gift of eternal life.

In Jesus, we find a King who is perfectly just and righteous, yet also compassionate and merciful. He rules with wisdom, grace and love. No earthly king can compare to the majesty, power and glory of our King, Jesus Christ.

“In the midst of the uncertainties and challenges we face in this world, let us fix our eyes on the One True King who reigns supreme. He is our solid foundation, our refuge and strength. Place your trust in Him, for His kingdom will have no end.“

Prayer:

Dear Lord Jesus, our One True King, We come before You today, humbly acknowledging Your sovereign reign over all creation. You alone are worthy of our worship and devotion, for You are the King of kings and Lord of lords.

Jesus, we praise You for the majesty, power and glory that is rightfully Yours. Yet, we are in awe that though You are exalted high above all, You humbled Yourself to walk among us. You understand our struggles and offer us the gift of eternal life. Be our solid foundation, our refuge and strength. We trust in Your wisdom, grace and love to guide and sustain us.

Help us, Your people, to keep our eyes fixed firmly on You, the One True King. May we be quick to pledge our complete allegiance to You, for You alone are perfectly just and righteous, yet also compassionate and merciful. Reign in our hearts and lives. May Your kingdom come and Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. For Yours is the kingdom, the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.

November 22nd 2024 – The Gift Of Friendship

Leave a reply

“A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity.” (Proverbs 17:17)

Friendship is one of God’s most beautiful gifts. Throughout the Bible, we see examples of deep, meaningful friendships that reflect God’s love and faithfulness. From the bond between David and Jonathan to the companionship of Jesus and His disciples, we learn that friendship is not just about shared interests, but about supporting one another through life’s journey.

God calls us to be true friends—those who love unconditionally, offer encouragement, and stand by each other during trials. In a world where relationships can often be superficial, God invites us to cultivate friendships that are rooted in faith, honesty, and love.

What Does God Say About Friends?

1. Friends are a Source of Strength:

Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 reminds us that “two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up.” True friends help us rise when we stumble, offering strength and support.

2. Friends Reflect Character:

Proverbs 27:17 states, “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.” Our friendships should challenge us to grow and become better versions of ourselves, reflecting Christ’s love and values.

3. Friends Provide Comfort:

In times of distress, a friend can be a comfort. Job’s friends initially came to support him, showing us that presence and empathy are essential in friendship, even when words fail.

4. Friends Are Gifts from God:

John 15:15 shows the depth of friendship that Jesus offers us: “I no longer call you servants… Instead, I have called you friends.” This highlights that true friendship is a divine relationship, rooted in love and trust.

“Remember, God calls us to nurture these beautiful relationships that mirror His love.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I come before You with a heart full of gratitude for the incredible gift of friendship. Thank You for placing people in my life who bring joy, support, and love. I recognize that these relationships are not just coincidences but are woven into Your divine plan for me.

Lord, I ask that You help me to be a true friend, one who embodies Your love and grace. Teach me to listen with compassion, to offer encouragement when times are tough, and to be a source of strength when my friends are in need. Help me to recognize the needs of those around me and give me the wisdom to respond in ways that reflect Your heart.

Thank You for being the ultimate friend, Jesus. Your unconditional love, sacrifice, and unwavering support inspire me to be a better friend to others. I pray that my friendships would draw us all closer to You. In Your precious name, I pray. Amen.

you do not know Jesus personally, I encourage you not to pass up the precious gift of His love and eternal life. Jesus died on the cross for you and me. He loves us and wants to help us. If you have not asked Jesus to be your Lord and Savior, please click here

November 11th 2024 – I Love You Lord, My Heart Is Yours

Leave a reply

“You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.” (Matthew 22:37)

In the hustle and bustle of daily life, it can be easy to lose sight of what truly matters. Yet, when we pause and reflect on our relationship with God, we are reminded of the depth of His love for us and the call to respond in kind. “I love you, Lord. My heart is Yours.” These words are not just a declaration; they are a commitment to put God first in everything we do.

Loving the Lord with all our heart means surrendering our desires, fears, and hopes to Him. It invites us to trust in His plans, even when the path ahead seems uncertain. When we say, “My heart is Yours,” we are acknowledging that our lives are intertwined with His purpose. We are allowing His love to shape our actions and decisions, guiding us to reflect His light in the world.

“By proclaiming, “My heart is Yours,” we acknowledge that our lives are intricately woven into His greater purpose.”

Prayer:
Heavenly Father, I come before You today, grateful for Your unfailing love and grace. I declare that my heart is Yours. Help me to love You with all my heart, soul, and mind. Teach me to trust in Your plans and to seek Your presence in every moment. May my life be a testament to Your goodness, and may I share Your love with those around me. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

January 12th 2024 – But, God

Leave a reply

“But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8

“But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),” Ephesians 2:4-5

Two of the most important words in the entire Bible are “But God.” You and I were dead in our sins and trespasses… but God.rescued us.

Linda was an alcoholic and Steve was a heroin addict… but God… Charles was dying, but God… healed him. The world needs to hear these words… but God. When I read local and world news, it becomes evident that this world is a complete mess… but God.

“For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.” 1 Timothy 2:3-4

We have to step out of our comfort zones and tell people one on one about Jesus. We have to get Bibles into the hands of those who don’t have them or who have never even seen one. We have to show the love of Jesus by bringing the Good News to those who have lost hope, to those who are living in the mess that has been made of this world. What mess have you made? God is in the business of fixing messes. God will break through the situation if you’ll allow Him. Maybe you know this. Too often we keep this to ourselves when we should be telling others.

“God never said that the journey would be easy, but He did say that the arrival would be worthwhile.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father Thank You for sending Your only Son to die for my sins. Please forgive me for times when I have selfishly kept the light of the Gospel to myself and please give me the courage and desire to tell others about the reason for my hope, which is Jesus. I pray this in Jesus’ name, Amen.

August 10th 2023 – Unfailing Assurance of God’s Love

Leave a reply

“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” – Romans 8:38-39

Let us bask in the unfailing assurance of God’s boundless love that transcends time, space, and all the challenges we face in this world. In a world that is ever-changing and often tumultuous, we find solace and strength in the steadfastness of God’s love for us.

The assurance of God’s love is not merely a concept, but a reality that permeates every fiber of our being. It is a love that surpasses all understanding, a love that has been demonstrated through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross. As we gaze upon the wounds of our Savior, we are reminded of the immeasurable depth of God’s love for us.

No matter what we have done or how far we may have strayed, God’s love remains constant and unchanging. His love is not based on our performance or our merits, but on His perfect nature. It is a love that is unconditional, forgiving, and overflowing with grace. It is a love that pursues us relentlessly, even in our darkest moments.

This assurance of God’s love offers comfort, healing, and hope. It assures us that we are never alone, for God is with us every step of our journey. It assures us that we are deeply known and intimately loved by the Creator of the universe. It assures us that we have a secure and eternal home in His loving embrace.

Let us hold fast to this assurance of God’s love, for it is the foundation of our faith. It empowers us to face the storms of life with confidence, knowing that we are held by the One who loves us beyond measure. It frees us from the chains of guilt and shame, reminding us that we are forgiven and redeemed. It transforms our hearts, enabling us to love others as God loves us.

Today, let us take a moment to reflect on the assurance of God’s love. Close your eyes, breathe deeply, and allow His love to wash over you. Feel His presence surrounding you, enveloping you in His tender care. Know that His love is unshakeable, unbreakable, and unending. Rest in the assurance that nothing can separate us from His love.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for the assurance of Your love. Help us to fully comprehend the depth and breadth of Your love for us. May Your love fill our hearts, transforming us from the inside out. Give us the courage to embrace Your love and share it with others. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

April 12th 2020 – He Shall Live

Leave a reply

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.” (John 11:25)

Easter is not about the Easter Bunny or brightly colored eggs. Easter is about the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

For some, Easter will be a great day, spent surrounded by family and friends. But for others, it will be a sad day, because Easter is a reminder of a loved one who has died and is now desperately missed.

Death seems so cruel, so harsh, and so final. That is what the disciples were feeling when they saw their Lord, whom they had left everything to follow, hanging on the cross. They were devastated. Death had crushed them. But if they would have gone back in their memories, they would have recalled an important event and statement Jesus had made.

They would have remembered Jesus standing at the tomb of his close friend Lazarus. They would have remembered that Jesus did something completely unexpected: He wept (see John 11:35 ). Jesus wept, because He knew that death was not part of God’s original plan. Humanity was not meant to grow old, to suffer with disease, or to die. But because of the sin of Adam and Eve, sin entered the human race, and death followed with it. And death spread to all of us. Jesus wept, because it broke His heart.

But standing there at Lazarus’ tomb, Jesus also delivered these hope filled words: “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live” (John 11:25).

Death is not the end. And the resurrection of Jesus Christ proves it.

If you have put your faith in Christ, then Easter means that you will live forever in the presence of God. Easter brings hope to the person who has been devastated by death.

“Death is not the end for the Believer in Christ!”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, Thank You for taking my sin upon You. I am sorry for the wrong things I have done and for the right I have failed to do. I confess my sins to You and ask for forgiveness. (Confess your sins, by act and by name to Him). Lord, thank You for helping me with my past and present sins. Help me to keep my eyes not on my sin, but on my Savior, Jesus. Help me to soar by casting off the weights of sin. Help me to live the life You have called me to live. I thank You for having a winning game plan for dealing with my Sin, In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Happy Easter from Scripturalseeds.org

Looking to ask Jesus into or recommit your life to Him? Read Below..

Jesus says “Look! I stand at the door and knock. If you hear my voice and open the door, I will come in, and we will share a meal together as friends.” (Revelation 3:20)

The Bible promises eternal life to all who receive Christ: “And this is what God has testified: He has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have God’s Son does not have life. I have written this to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know you have eternal life.” (1 John 11-13)

If you have not asked Jesus into your life, You can receive Jesus Christ right now by faith through prayer.

Prayer is just talking with God. He knows your heart, so don’t worry about getting your words just right. Here is a suggested prayer to guide you:

Lord Jesus, I want to know you personally. Thank you for dying on the cross for my sins. I open the door of my life and receive you as my Saviour and Lord. Thank you for forgiving me of my sins and giving me eternal life. Take control of my life. Make me the kind of person You want me to be. Amen.

If you have done this, then congratulations! (Luke 15:7) says that when one sinner accepts Jesus Christ as his or her Saviour the angels rejoice. So there’s a party going on in heaven right now over your decision! Remember this date as your “second birthday,” the day you were born into a new life in Christ! You have God’s Word that he answered your prayer.

March 14th 2020 – God Is Love!

Leave a reply

Then the LORD said to me, “Go and love your wife again, even though she commits adultery with another lover. This will illustrate that the LORD still loves Israel, even though the people have turned to other gods and love to worship them.” (Hosea 3:1)

Have you ever taken time to truly think about God’s love? In Hosea, we get a glimpse of this love through the lives of the prophet Hosea and his wife Gomer. Gomer has continued to commit adultery against her husband, yet God tells Hosea to go and love her again. You see, this is not just a story about marriage and it’s not just an image of Israel. This is also a picture of the Gospel.

Like Gomer, we all have continued to walk away from God. We chase after other things to make us happy or fulfill our lives all the while forgetting the One who truly loves us. If the story ended there, we would be in a hard situation, but like Gomer, we have a heavenly Father Who was willing to buy us back. How did He buy us back? God purchased us from the slavery of sin with the blood of His Son Jesus. You see, while we were in bondage to our sinful ways, Jesus stepped out of heaven, walked to the cross and died in our place. When He died, He buried our sins with Him. When He arose, He pronounced freedom to all who would trust in Him. His reason for doing this for us is simple. God loves us.

“God is love”

If you have never experienced the love of God through a relationship with Jesus then come to Him today. He will never turn you away. You can pray a prayer like this…

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I know that I have sinned. Today, I come to You and ask that You would forgive me of my sins. I believe Jesus died for me and that He rose again. Fill me with Your Spirit and use me for Your Kingdom. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

If you have read this prayer and believed in your heart, then congratulations!

(Luke 15:7) says that when one sinner accepts Jesus Christ as his or her Savior the angels rejoice. So there’s a party going on in heaven right now over your decision! Remember this date as your “second birthday,” the day you were born into a new life in Christ! You have God’s Word that he answered your prayer.

March 10th 2020 – What Do You Seek

Leave a reply

“Then Jesus turned, and seeing them following, said to them, “What do you seek?” (John 1:38)

That’s the question we need to have answered in our lives isn’t it? “What do you seek?” Is it a better marriage? A promotion at work, more money, more notoriety? Maybe to see your kids walking with the Lord? Are we seeking the Lord’s hand of blessing more than we are seeking the Lord Himself?

They once asked Jesus where He was staying. He told them to come and see. Where is the Lord in our lives? The Lord is saying to come and hang with Him. We ask where. The cross!

Then He said to them all, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will save it.” (Luke 9:23-24)

When we come to Jesus, not for His hand of blessing but for His will to be done in our lives. When we are willing to lay down our life for His sake, then He begins showing us things greater than we could possibly imagine.

In John 1:50 Jesus sees Nathaniel having devotions under the tree…

“Jesus answered and said to him, “Because I said to you, ‘I saw you under the fig tree,’ do you believe? You will see greater things than these.” (John 1:50)

Please prioritize the Lord in your devotional life. Jesus is taking note. He then tells us “You will see greater things than these.” When we lay our life down for His sake, we find that all we ever needed was Jesus.

“You don’t know that Jesus is all you need Jesus is all you have.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, please help me continue to seek You because I want to know You not just what You can give me. Please forgive me when I fail in this. Give me the power of Your Spirit to set my devotion upon You and Your will for me. I thank You Lord because I can trust You’ll do even greater things with my life as I trust in You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Do you want to experience the kind of Peace and Love that is only found in Jesus? Jesus died on the cross for you. He loves you and wants to help you. He wants to bring peace in your life.

March 9th 2020 – Waiting On Prayers To Be Answered

Leave a reply

He said to me, “Do not fear, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard; and I have come because of your words.” (Daniel 10:12)

There is an interesting story in the book of Daniel offers us a unique, behind-the scenes look at what happens when we pray. The Bible tells us that Daniel was praying and that his prayer reached Heaven. God heard Daniel’s prayer and sent an angel with a special message for Daniel. But the angel who was sent from Heaven was held up for twenty one days because he was engaged in spiritual warfare with a powerful demon spirit. As a result, God then sent the archangel. Michael (You might say that Michael is like the “Big Kahuna” among angels.) Michael was sent, who obviously delt with the demon swiftly, and the answer was brought to Daniel. But it took twenty-one days for the answer to get there.

Sometimes when God doesn’t answer our prayers as quickly as we would like Him to, we think that He is not listening or He letting us down. We need to understand that delays aren’t necessarily denials.

When we pray and don’t see an answer as quickly as we would like, it may be a result of circumstances that we can’t see. There might even be a spiritual battle raging behind the scenes. Maybe you’ve been praying for someone to come to know the Lord. Maybe you’ve been asking God to heal you. Perhaps you’ve been asking the Lord for the blessing of husband or wife. Don’t give up. Don’t be discouraged. Keep praying. Jesus tells us to keep asking, keep seeking, keep knocking, and the door would be opened. So be persistent. And watch what God will do.

The Lord is good to those who wait hopefully and expectantly for Him, to those who continue to seek Him.” (Lamentations 3:25)

“No matter how long it takes, when God works, It’s always worth the wait.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, Thank You for remaining faithful to me. Help me have hope and expectancy as I wait for Your answers to my prayers. And during the extended times when you are waiting for the perfect moment to answer or just waiting on me to be ready, may I contine to give you my praises and wait with a heart of gratitude because your Grace is more then sufficent for me. I thank you for Leading me and Loving me and Blessing me everyday with life. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

March 8th 2020 – Love Like Jesus

Leave a reply

And above all things have fervent love for one another, for “love will cover a multitude of sins.” (1 Peter 4:8)

In 1 Peter 4, the apostle uses an interesting word to describe the love we are to have for one another. He says we are to have a “fervent” love. In the Greek, this word means “stretched out” and carries with it a picture of a runner straining for the finish line. It’s a vivid image of a love that never quits.

Peter commands Christians to work hard at loving each other. The Greek word translated as “deeply,” “earnestly,” or “fervently” is ektenē, used to describe the muscles of an athlete straining to win a race. Peter writes that Christians should do this “above all.” A follower of Christ must make demonstrating the love of Jesus to others his or her first priority. This is always a requirement, but especially crucial during seasons of suffering.

What does this “stretched out” love look like? Peter answers this question with the next quote, “Love will cover a multitude of sins.” In other words, a fervent, stretched-out love is a love that forgives no matter the cost. Like the marathon runner that continues despite the burning in his lungs and the cramps in his muscles because he desires to achieve the goal, so we should endure the pain of rejection and the harsh words of those around us with a love in our hearts and a forgiving spirit. How can we love like this? We can love this way because Christ first loved us. He loved us even though we are sinners. He loved us, even when we rebelled against Him. He loved us with stretched out arms on the cross. Let’s love each other in the same way. Let’s Love like Jesus, because His love never quits!

“For when you demonstrate the same love I have for you by loving one another, everyone will know that you’re my true followers.” (John 13:35)

“We should stretch ourselves in order to love one another. This means being willing to forgive no matter the cost.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I thank You for Your love and ask that You would help me to love others in the same way. Help me to forgive often, love unconditionally as You love me and serve those around me. Use my fervent love to draw others to Your amazing grace. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Do you want to experience a love for you that never quits? Jesus died on the cross for you. He loves you and wants to help you. If you have not asked Jesus to be your Lord and Savior, please click here 4 Simple Steps to Jesus
