WE ARE CHRIST'S FRAGRANCE...

The Bible says we are the aroma (fragrance) of Christ. Let's spread that fragrance around!

2 Corinthians 2:15, : For we are to God the aroma of Christ, among those who are being saved and those who are perishing.

Go to the King's court...

Hi....
Greetings...

So often we are faced with situations that so...trouble us and we try hard to find answers and judge the situation with our own wisdom.
Sometimes we are treated unjustly and our cry for justice is not heard by anyone down here on earth.
Esther heard her people the Jews were in trouble. She asked all the Jews to fast for 3 days and Night and then she and her maidens too chose to fast and then was ready to boldly enter the Kings Chambers.
She was willing to perish in the process of getting justice for her people.
Esther 4:16,"Go, gather together all the Jews who are in Susa, and fast for me. Do not eat or drink for three days, night or day. I and my maids will fast as you do. When this is done, I will go to the king, even though it is against the law. And if I perish, I perish."
We too have to stand up for truth and maintain justice.
Isaiah 56: 1 This is what the LORD says:
       "Maintain justice
       and do what is right..." 

Today when we face tough situations and look for justice and find none, we can always approach THE KING'S (JESUS CHRIST'S) Chamber or His Courts, at any time and we don't have to get His permission.
We only have to have the right relationship with Our Saviour JESUS CHRIST.
And have to get right with Him if there's any un confessed sin, have to confess & repent for sometimes our sins prevent God from hearing our petitions.
Isaiah 59: 1 Surely the arm of the LORD is not too short to save,
       nor his ear too dull to hear. 
    2 But your iniquities have separated
       you from your God;
       your sins have hidden his face from you,
       so that he will not hear.
When we lay our petitions at our King and Saviour JESUS CHRIST'S feet we are sure to get fair justice, for God sees our hearts and judges out thought. He's a fair judge.
Esther stood up to speak up to the King for her people. Are we willing to stand up & speak to Our King when we face situation that needs God's attention??
Go to the Lord with your petitions. He is a fair judge & a compassionate & loving King.
Don't hesitate or fear to go to the King's Court with your petitions.
