The Journey

ROAD is an acronym:

Remind One Another Daily

from Hebrews 3:13 NKJV
but exhort one another daily, while it is called "Today," lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.

Hebrews 3:14-15 NKJV
For we have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end, [15] while it is said: "Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion."

R.O.A.D. - REMIND ONE ANOTHER DAILY

Years have now come and gone and we have all lived through battles, coming out victorious on the other side. We have also lost many soldiers amidst the skirmishes with the enemy.

One thing we have discovered: “we are made partakers of Christ, IF we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end.” (Heb3:14)

We are MADE a sharer, a partner, an associate IN THE VERY NATURE OF THE MESSIAH… THE ANOINTED ONE, THE SAVIOR, THE HEALER, DELIVERER, REDEEMER

IF…

We hold firm, stedfast, certain, sure our confident, unwavering assurance BEING FULLY PERSUADED from beginning to end.

PROBLEM -

“For if any be a hearer of the WORD, and not a doer, he is like a man beholding his natural face in a glass: For he beholds himself, and goes his way, and straightway forgets what manner of man he was.” (Jas1:23-24)

• We look in the mirror of the WORD
• We see our natural (Greek “Genesis”) face
• And when we go about our daily stuff
• WE FORGET WHO WE REALLY ARE!!!

“when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the WORD that was sown in their hearts.” (Mk4:15)

OR…

“when they have heard the WORD, immediately receive it with gladness; And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution arises FOR THE WORD’S SAKE, immediately they are offended” (Mk4:16-17)

OR maybe…

They “hear the word, And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the WORD, and it becomes unfruitful.” (Mk4:18-19)

No matter the reason, the issue and purpose is TO KILL THE WORD! The seed! which produces in you the very likeness, image and nature of CHRIST! WHO IS THE WORD!

“Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. BUT EXHORT ONE ANOTHER DAILY, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.” (Heb3:12-13)
