Desiring the Best for Others

On December 12, 2020December 9, 2020 By aaronosowski7In Growth, TopicalLeave a comment

In Zechariah 3:5, we see Zechariah asking for a fair mitre to be placed upon the head of Joshua in a vision he is being given from God. And, in Zechariah 6:11 God instructs Zechariah to literally place crowns of gold and silver and set them upon Joshua's head. The vision and the action are …

Seeking Sanctification in Others

On December 11, 2020December 9, 2020 By aaronosowski7In Growth, Topical1 Comment

Humility is one of the most important characteristics for us as Christians. For Jesus Himself says "I am meek and lowly in heart" and Jesus, in the greatest act of humility "emptied Himself and took upon Him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: and being found in fashion …

Making Yourself Poor

On December 10, 2020December 9, 2020 By aaronosowski7In Growth, TopicalLeave a comment

If you seek to make yourself rich on this earth, in reality you have nothing, though you may obtain and possess many physical things. On the other hand, if you make yourself poor on this earth, by giving your things and money away, you will have great riches in heaven. Both states cannot be true. …

Boasting in The Cross

On November 23, 2020November 19, 2020 By aaronosowski7In Growth, TopicalLeave a comment

David says in Psalms 21:5, speaking of "the king," "His glory is great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him." This is quite remarkable. David had many earthly and fleshly things to glory of. If he wanted to boast about something of worldly value he had no lack of material. He …

The Joy of Knowing Jesus

On November 22, 2020November 19, 2020 By aaronosowski7In Growth, TopicalLeave a comment

The blessing, glory, honor, and majesty found in salvation, which we experience/will experience through Jesus are a result of us seeing Jesus' glory. The reason salvation is so magnificent is because through it we get to intimately know and expereince God through Jesus, who is the "fullness of the Godhead in bodily form." Jesus Himself …

Refuge Under The Skirt of Christ

On November 21, 2020November 19, 2020 By aaronosowski7In Admonition, TopicalLeave a comment

The true story of Ruth and Boaz is a great picture of Jesus and His bride, the Church. One of the most important lessons I think we can learn from it is our great need to come under the "skirt" of Jesus. Just like Ruth did with Boaz, we must do the same with Jesus. …

The Help of His Countenance

On November 20, 2020November 18, 2020 By aaronosowski7In encouragement, TopicalLeave a comment

There are plenty of times, and will probably be plenty more, in our lives when we feel downcast, downtrodden, disquieted, disinterested. These are normal consequences of living in a cursed world ruled by satan and under the continual tempting of him, the flesh, and the world. But Jesus is more powerful, His beauty is more …

Redeemed Through Judgment

On November 19, 2020November 18, 2020 By aaronosowski7In Admonition, encouragement, TopicalLeave a comment

Jesus redeems us by God's judgement on him. The cup which Jesus drank, praying, "let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt" was the very wrath of God we deserved for our sins. Our offences against a holy God were cast upon His Son, "whom God hath set …

Forgiveness Brings Knowledge

On November 18, 2020November 18, 2020 By aaronosowski7In Admonition, TopicalLeave a comment

Because Jesus has died for our sins, resurrected, and given us the ability to be forgiven through faith, we can know The LORD. Though one might think they can know God through reading about Him or meditating upon spiritual matters: true knowledge of God comes only through Jesus and faith in Him. Intimate knowledge of …

The Greatest Promise

On November 9, 2020November 5, 2020 By aaronosowski7In encouragement, TopicalLeave a comment

One of the greatest promises that we have been given by The Lord is forgiveness. What an immeasurable debt we owe God; and yet, because Jesus paid the due punishment for our sins, He doesn't require payment from us. What glorious freedom is in Christ Jesus for those who take refuge under His wings from …
