Acts 2:32-33 – God has raised this Jesus to life, and we are all witnesses

Praise the Lord           God has raised this Jesus to life, and we are all witnesses of the fact. Exalted to the right hand of God, he has received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit and has poured out what you now see and hear             Peter proclaimed this message at Pentecost: The cross was God’s wrath poured upon Jesus for our sakes. The resurrection was God’s power that has broken the hold of sin and death once and for all. Now the Holy Spirit is released upon all of God’s people so that Jesus can be exalted in us and the Father can be revealed to us. God is actively involved with His creation. Are we looking to the Holy Spirit today? What do you see and hear? .                 Jeba

Remember. 00-13: USA & Canada 20-29: In-Store Functions 30-37: France 40-44: Germany 45: Japan (also 49) 46: Russian Federation 471: Taiwan 474: Estonia 475: Latvia 477: Lithuania 479: Sri Lanka 480: Philippines 482: Ukraine 484: Moldova 485: Armenia 486: Georgia 487: Kazakhstan 489: Hong Kong 49: Japan (JAN-13) 50: United Kingdom  520: Greece 528: Lebanon 529: Cyprus 531: Macedonia 535: Malta 539: Ireland 54: Belgium & Luxembourg 560: Portugal 569: Iceland 57: Denmark 590: Poland 594: Romania 599: Hungary 600 & 601: South Africa 609: Mauritius 611: Morocco 613: Algeria 619: Tunisia 622: Egypt 625: Jordan 626: Iran 64: Finland 690-692: China 70: Norway 729: Israel 73: Sweden 740: Guatemala 741: El Salvador 742: Honduras 743: Nicaragua 744: Costa Rica 746: Dominican Republic 750: Mexico 759: Venezuela 76: Switzerland 770: Colombia 773: Uruguay 775: Peru 777: Bolivia 779: Argentina 780: Chile 784: Paraguay 785: Peru 786: Ecuador 789: Brazil 80 - 83: Italy 84: Spain 850: Cuba 858: Slovakia 859: Czech Republic  860: Yugoslavia 869: Turkey 87: Netherlands 880: South Korea 885: Thailand 888: Singapore 890: India 893: Vietnam 899: Indonesia 90 & 91: Austria 93: Australia 94: New Zealand 955: Malaysia 977: International Standard Serial Number for Periodicals (ISSN) 978: International Standard Book Numbering (ISBN) 979: International Standard Music Number (ISMN) 980: Refund receipts 981 & 982: Common Currency Coupons 99: Coupons With more and more milk products from China and Taiwan having problem. We really got to check where the things are produced. Here is a way to differentiate Taiwan made products and China made products : by looking at first three digits of its Bar Code. Nowadays, China businessmen know the consumers do not prefer products "made in china", so they won't show made from which country. However, you may now refer to the barcodes, if the first 3 digits is 690-692 then it is made in China . Jeba

Colossians 1:6b – All over the world this gospel is bearing fruit and growing

Praise the Lord           All over the world this gospel is bearing fruit and growing, just as it has been doing among you since the day you heard it and understood God’s grace in all its truth             Paul describes the gospel as a living entity. Notice that it is the gospel that is bearing fruit and growing. Once people really understand the good news, the gospel has a life of it’s own that expands in surprising ways. Just ask the underground church in China or the new expressions of faith that are appearing all over America. In a day when mainline churches are declining, the gospel is going forward in dynamic new ways. We can’t contain it nor should we. When we feel spiritually dry and worn out, we need to come back to the gospel. Have you reminded yourself of God’s grace in all its truth today? .                 Jeba

Luke 12:8-9 – whoever acknowledges me before men, the Son of Man will also acknowledge him

Praise the Lord           I tell you, whoever acknowledges me before men, the Son of Man will also acknowledge him before the angels of God. But he who disowns me before men will be disowned before the angels of God             The claims of Christ are so encompassing that anyone who understands them will realize that to engage with Christ is to be marked for life. This marking puts us in situations that we are uncomfortable with, yet Jesus gives us neither apologies nor loopholes. He wants to cement our heart with Him by admitting our allegiance to Christ with others. To shrink back in that moment is not accepted. There is no middle ground for the person who believes that Jesus Christ is the Savior for all of mankind .                 Jeba

Numbers 23:19 – Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?

Praise the Lord           God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?             This is from the story of the prophet Balaam, who was hired by King Balak to curse the people of Israel. Instead of a curse, God would give Balaam a blessing for Israel each time he tried. Eventually King Balak was faced with a dilemma: he could either hold on to his plans or surrender them to what God was doing in his generation.   Thousands of years later Jesus would put it this way: The Kingdom of heaven is here. God is on the move. We must learn to die to our plans and follow Him. This has been the clarion call of God to humanity from Genesis to Revelations. He does not change His mind.                 Jeba

This image provided by NOAA shows a deep-sea Chimera in waters off Indonesia in July, 2010. Chimeras are most closely related to sharks, although their evolutionary lineage branched off from sharks nearly 400 million years ago, and they have remained an isolated group ever since. According to scientists the lateral lines running across this chimera are mechano-receptors that detect pressure waves (like ears). The dotted-looking lines on the frontal portion of the face (near the mouth) are ampullae de lorenzini and detect perturbations in electrical fields generated by living organisms.
