THE THREE MINUTE WORD

I OPENED A WAY
Good morning children of the most High God and welcome back to our study of the Book of Isaiah. If you are not a child of the most High God you are a child of darkness, of Satan. I realize that is a little blunt but the cost of staying in the devils’ kingdom is way too high, it is stealing, killing, and destroying now and Hell forever after this life. Change kingdoms today! Before moving on please take a moment and share this teaching as widely as possible by every means available to you. Thank you for sharing. The featured picture today is of a typical American School to remind us to pray for our education system, one of the seven pillars of society. Praying for all of the seven pillars of society including the education system is not an option for the Christian, it is a command. It is an option only for those who have no problem with sin in their lives.
Proverbs 9:10 (KJV)
10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.
Proverbs 18:15 (KJV)
15 The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.
I think we are all aware, most Christians at least, that public education in the United States left the tracks a long time ago. The heathen will not be the ones to right this righteous education train, it must be the Church. Each of us have a role. Let us all seek the Lord as to our role. Let us be sincere pleasing our Heavenly Father as we pray for all in the educational system, both students and teachers alike. When we kick, yes, we the Church, the only True God out of education just who did we think would take His place? Nothing happens in the earth that we the Church have not allowed. Now let’s turn our attention to our primary Bible text in Isaiah continuing to read out loud.
Isaiah 43:14-18 (NLT)
14 This is what the LORD says—your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: “For your sakes I will send an army against Babylon,
forcing the Babylonians to flee in those ships they are so proud of.
15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, Israel’s Creator and King.
16 I am the LORD, who opened a way through the waters,
making a dry path through the sea.
17 I called forth the mighty army of Egypt with all its chariots and horses. I drew them beneath the waves, and they drowned, their lives snuffed out like a smoldering candlewick.
18 “But forget all that— it is nothing compared to what I am going to do.
Picking up from yesterday let’s dive into verse sixteen of our primary Bible text. The Lord now reminds His people about how He brought them to safety through the Red Sea. Let’s think for just a moment about the symbolism here in verse sixteen. Think about the water being the Word of God, and the sea, the Red Sea as the Blood of Jesus. What allows or makes certain our salvation? The Word of God and the Blood of Jesus.
Romans 10:8-9 (KJV)
8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Ephesians 2:13 (KJV)
13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
The Lord made a way for them and He made a way for us. We also went across on dry ground. Just as the children of Israel did not enter the Promised Land immediately neither do, we at salvation. They were to go through a training period and then all in the Promised Land was theirs but they would not believe and enter. This training is learning the ways, the laws of God, believing them, and implementing them. This is the same reason that many in the body of Christ have not entered the Promised Land. Now, back to our primary text. Then He calls to their remembrance how He totally defeated, humiliated Pharoah (type of Satan), and Egypt (type of world system).
Colossians 2:14-15 (KJV)
14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
If we will but believe and walk in our spiritual authority we will have challenges, some very significant, but never defeat. Remember, becoming aware of a threat and letting the threat in are two different things that can have two very different outcomes.
Lord willing, I will pick up right here tomorrow.
