Saints study the picture above and open your bibles to Revelation 3:4 which reads Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments. And they shall walk with me in white, for they are worthy. And also look to Revelation 7:9 and Revelation 7:13-14 which reads After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they? And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Remember saint reading this, there was a great multitude which no man could number 10000 X 10000 and thousands and thousands (an infinite number) and not just 144000 who were before the throne of Jesus dressed in white robes. Now whoever is reading this remember shout and praise Jesus for the robes of these saints which are all who believe Jesus as Lord are made white by the blood of Jesus. The verse above says the robes we all get in heaven from Jesus are white because we all have been washed in the blood of Jesus. I remember saints when Jesus explained to me that when we come back to reign with Jesus for 1000 years we come back on white horses and the horses are white because the horses have also been washed in the blood of Jesus. Revelation 19:14 reads And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. Remember saint reading this don't ever let the devil make you feel guilty of your sins. If you ever feel guilty of any sin you did, look with your heart to Jesus and the cross and tell the devil the blood of Jesus has washed me clean of all my sin and totally purged or cleansed my conscience. Quote these scriptures to remove guilt from your life. Revelation 1:5 which reads Unto Him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in His own blood. 1 John 1:7 which reads But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanseth us from all sin. Hebrews 9:12,14 which reads Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by His own blood (I could shout forever on this verse alone. Thank you Jesus for taking your own blood and not the blood of goats and calves and sprinkling your own blood on the mercy seat to redeem or totally set us free from sin) He entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us. How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? I remember once a lady wrote on a desk where I worked Brother Bob I see faults in your life and you call yourself a minister of God. I took a black marker and wrote on a piece of paper for all to see on my state job Thank you Jesus for the Blood of Jesus which washes and cleanses us all from all sin. I guarantee you all who forever read this if you just think on Jesus Christ crucified and remember the blood that Jesus shed for you, any form of guilt will immediately disappear from your lives in Jesus name. Wow, look at the picture above of Jesus as the Light of the entire universe. Jesus gave me a revelation from heaven and told me and my friend Wes that before the sun was ever created Jesus was the Light and shined like the light of seven days. Open your bibles to Genesis 1:3 and 1:16 and I'll prove this all to you. The scriptures read. And God said Let there be Light and there was Light. This was on the first day. Then later on on the fourth day it reads And God made two great lights, the greater light to rule the day and the lesser light to rule the night, He made the stars also. Now with all respect and praise to Jesus here is the verse that proves Jesus was that Light created on the first day by the Father who is Jesus because Jesus said I and my Father are one and Before Abraham was I AM (John 8:58). Jesus is the Great I AM and is God. John 8:12 reads Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the Light of the world, He that followeth me shall not walk in darkness but shall have the Light of life. Now read this revelation I received from Jesus through my friend Tiffany and shout for joy. The grass, the herbs yielding seed, and the fruit trees were created on the third day and existed before the sun was created on the fourth day. Now logic and head reasoning say plants need the sun to grow. But look again at the picture above and remember that the plants on the third day grew from the Light Jesus which was created on the first day. And to top it all off to the praise of Jesus, the light of Jesus shines as the light of seven days according to Isaiah 30:26 which reads Moreover, the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold as the light of seven days in the day that the Lord bindeth up the breach of his people and healeth the stroke of their wound. Finally, saints I'm writing this bible blog at 3:00 AM not PM in the early morning. Some people might say why is Brother Bob writing his blog in the early hours of the morning. He's nuts. To answer this turn to Proverbs 8:17 which reads I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me. Saint if you want to find Jesus tell your flesh to be quiet and stop complaining and wake up real early in the early hours of the day and seek Jesus with all your heart. Praying and seeking are different. We should pray to Jesus at all times. Psalm 55:17 reads Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud; and He shall hear my voice. But to find Jesus we must seek not pray early and we will find Jesus. If we wait to seek Jesus later on in the day we get too busy with bills, grocery shopping, daily jobs, and laundry that we don't have the adequate time to find Jesus. Alright everyone reading this blog, study the picture above of the beggar Lazarus at the rich man's house full of sores and the dogs licking his sores. The beggar Lazarus just wanted some crumbs that fell from the rich mans table but the rich man was so cruel that he would give his dogs the crumbs and let Lazarus starve. But when they both died Lazarus was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom and the rich man was taken to hell and was in torment. I tell people if you had a choice in this life to be either the rich man or Lazarus in the picture above, who would you want to be. To the glory of Jesus, Brother Bob says I'd rather be Lazarus and have eternal joy and peace forever in heaven with Jesus. The pleasure of sin is for a season and the end result is torment in hell. But there are pleasures forevermore with Jesus and eternal peace and joy forever in the kingdom. Moses was blessed and according to Hebrews 11:24 By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter; choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt; for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward. Wow, Moses could have been the top commander and Pharoah but chose to be with Jesus looking like Lazarus above to the future glory of eternal peace in heaven. I'd rather like Moses have the pleasures forevermore with Jesus than the pleasures of sin for a season. This is promised in Psalm 16:11 which reads Thou wilt shew me the path of life; in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures forevermore. Now here are four verses which Brother Bob loves which prove that the humble servant for Jesus will be exalted and blessed like Lazarus pictured above. Proverbs 13:7 reads There is that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing. There is that maketh himself poor, yet hath great riches. Galatians 6:3 reads For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself. Proverbs 14:12 reads There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. And finally, Romans 14:7 reads For none of us liveth to himself and no man dieth to himself. For whether we live, we live unto the Lord and whether we die, we die unto the Lord. Whether we live therefore or die, we are the Lords. Remember the bible says MANY in this life that are first shall be last, but few in this life that are last shall be first. Mark 10:31 reads But MANY that are first shall be last, and the last (notice not many but FEW) shall be first. Wow, what a picture above of Elijah being caught up to heaven in a chariot of fire and horses of fire. The account of this story is in 2 Kings 2:11 which reads And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven. And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more; and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces. He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and went back, and stood by the bank of Jordan. What's amazing to me is that people doubted Elisha when he told them that Elijah was caught up to heaven. 50 strong men were sent out to capture Elijah and they searched for Elijah for three days in the mountains and in the valleys. When these 50 doubting strong men came back to Elisha, Elisha stated in 2 Kings 2:18 And when they came again to him, for he tarried at Jericho, he said unto them, Did I not say unto you, Go not? Now saint reading this study the picture above and realize that you also can ride upon the high places of the earth like Elijah if you today now make Jesus your Lord and Jesus your sabbath and everlasting rest. Read the promise of Isaiah 58:13 and shout for joy. The scripture reads If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day, and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the Lord honourable and shalt honour Him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words, then shalt thou delight thyself in the Lord and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth and feed thee with the heritage (defined as inheritance) of Jacob thy father, for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it. Wow, take a look at the picture above which is a treasure showing Elijah outrunning the chariot of Ahab. Now think about this. Ahab and his wife the witch Jezebel were so wicked that Jesus had Elijah pray and Jesus shut up the sky so that there was no rain for 3 1/2 years. Now Jesus told Elijah to show himself to his worst enemy Ahab who wanted to kill him before Jesus would command an abundance of rain to return to the earth after 3 1/2 years. This is proven in 1 Kings 18 which reads And it came to pass after many days that the word of the Lord came to Elijah in the third year saying, Go shew theyself unto Ahab and I will send rain upon the earth. Now I believe the reason Jesus told Elijah to shew himself to Ahab is because we all must love our enemies and pray for them that despitefully use us. Now look at 1 Kings 18:17 and what Ahab said to Elijah when Elijah was trying to bless him with rain. The text reads And it came to pass when Ahab saw Elijah that Ahab said unto him, Art thou he that troubleth Israel. Elijah responded to Ahab in love and the bible reads at 1 Kings 18:41 And Elijah said unto Ahab, Get thee up eat and drink, for there is a sound of abundance of rain. Elijah had enough faith to believe that after seven times when his servant saw a little cloud out of the sea like a man's hand an abundance of rain was on the way. I wish I had a live movie camera of the picture above of Elijah so happy when the rain poured out after a 3 1/2 year draught of no rain and Elijah in happiness running faster than a speeding chariot of Ahab going about 40 miles per hour. Sometimes when Brother Bob gets happy I run like Elijah real fast all around churches and out in the open at tent meetings. Isaiah 40:31 But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary, and they shall walk, and not faint. Be blessed everyone in Jesus name and have a wonderful day.
