Chosen and Protected

On February 6, 2021February 5, 2021 By aaronosowski7In UncategorizedLeave a comment

Satan stands at the right hand of Christ to resist us, to accuse us. He is, "the accuser of [the] brethren" and accuses us before God "day and night." This is shown to us visually in a vison which Zechariah had. In it, he writes for us, "And he shewed me Joshua the high priest …

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 …

Looking Unto Jesus

On November 5, 2020November 2, 2020 By aaronosowski7In encouragement, TopicalLeave a comment

When we look to The LORD our faces are lightened. They are lit up, we are made to rejoice/be glad. When we behold Jesus Christ, our faces are lightened. We must look at Jesus more often and we will be made glad more often! You will not be filled with sorrow, nor disappointed, nor put …

Unashamed

On November 3, 2020November 2, 2020 By aaronosowski7In encouragement, TopicalLeave a comment

Everything in this life will eventually let us down. There is no physical thing or person who will not eventually be taken away from us, or us from them. This life is fleeting and short, and everything that can be seen with the eyes and heard with the ears is temporary. John tells us, "And …

Grace From Birth

On October 12, 2020October 5, 2020 By aaronosowski7In encouragement, TopicalLeave a comment

Whether we know it or not, we have been resting upon The LORD since birth. Since we have came out of the womb, we have been resting upon His grace and mercy. Without God's mercy, and without His help, all men are doomed. There is always grace at work, always mercy, though some do not …

In the Face of Enemies

On October 11, 2020October 5, 2020 By aaronosowski7In encouragement, TopicalLeave a comment

Even in the face of enemies and persecution we can have hope. Even when things aren't going well, hope! Instead of living a life defeated by satan, sin, or the flesh, Praise God more and more, don't let the enemy get a hold of you! David says, "For mine enemies speak against me; and they …

The LORD Delights in Our Hope

On September 24, 2020September 20, 2020 By aaronosowski7In encouragement, TopicalLeave a comment

It can be tempting to feel discouraged because we have "failed" God or to get down on ourselves when we don't perform, but I think that God has a very different view of us in these moments. After all, The Lord chose us for Himself before the foundation of the world, which means He already …

Receiving Richness from The Lord

On August 21, 2020August 20, 2020 By aaronosowski7In encouragement, TopicalLeave a comment

God offers us abundant life. He offers to completely fill us so that we are made rich. Rich in the way a flourishing plant is green/rich/having vigor, not rich as in having wordy wealth. The LORD offers us this richness, this fatness, for free! "Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and …

The LORD is our Portion

On August 7, 2020 By aaronosowski7In encouragement, TopicalLeave a comment

Seeing Jesus in every circumstance. Dear brethren in The Lord, I want to encourage you with something that The Lord Jesus has encouraged me with recently. Let us begin by remembering the words of the apostle Peter, who said, regarding our position in Christ Jesus, "Ye also, as living stones, are being built up as …

The Revelation of Jesus Christ Pt 2, 1:4-6

On August 5, 2020August 8, 2020 By aaronosowski7In Verse by verseLeave a comment

In this section of scripture, John gives us the first of many groupings of sevens: seven aspects of Jesus Christ. Here, too, we see that The Triune God has written to us: Father, Spirit, and Son, and intertwined in these verses is a unique structure of past, present, and future - subtly reinforcing to us …
