AN INTRODUCTION
Because we have seen and sense that events are occurring quickly, we feel that waiting for the monthly newsletter is a bit too slow to stay informed. So we have released something new from "Thus Saith the Lord…" Ministries -- automatic e-mail messages. You can receive immediate news items, the monthly newsletter, and periodical inspirational items. In this format, you will be able to forward the content much easier than our paper form. We appreciate your support with this endeavor. Let us together spread the light as far as possible. We feel that the time is very near. Let us be ready and let us be focused in reaching as many as possible with the Three Angels' Messages.
In Brotherly Love,
Jerry & Carol O'Donnell
AN INSPIRATIONAL NOTE
This Day With God, Chapter 1 - Promise of Peace
Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee. Trust ye in the Lord for ever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength. Isa. 26:3, 4.
I wish you a happy new year. Let us put away everything like distrust and want of faith in Jesus forever. Let us commence a life of simple child-like trust, not relying upon feeling but upon faith. {TDG 9.1}
Do not dishonor Jesus by doubting His precious promises. He wants us to believe in Him with unwavering faith. There is a class who say, "I believe, I believe," and claim all the promises which are given on condition of obedience. While they claim everything in the promises of God, they do not the works of Christ. God is not honored by any such faith, it is a spurious faith. Then we see a people trying to keep all of God's commandments, but there are many of these who do not come up to their exalted privileges and claim nothing. God's promises are to those who keep His commandments and do those things that are pleasing in His sight. . . . {TDG 9.2}
I have to fight the good fight of faith everyday. I have to put to the stretch the powers of faith and not rely upon feeling, and act as though I knew the Lord heard me, and would answer me and bless me. Faith is not a happy flight of feeling, it is simply taking God at His word and believing, because God said He would do this. . . . {TDG 9.3}
I hope you will not become in any way discouraged. . . . {TDG 9.4}
God wants you to be free, He wants you to be believing, to be trustful, and just cease to doubt and believe. May God help you. . . . A new year has opened upon us. Let it be a happy New Year. . . . Nestle in the sheltering arms of Jesus, and do not wrestle yourself out of His arms. Just believe and praise God and go forward. We are almost home. {TDG 9.5}
The Lord is coming. Look up and rejoice, for your redemption draweth nigh. I see in Jesus a compassionate, loving Redeemer, One who can save to the uttermost all who come unto Him. Bear your whole weight on the promises of God. Believe it is your privilege to believe.--Letter 31, Jan. 1, 1887, to Martha Bourdeau, wife of an early minister in Europe. {TDG 9.6}
