Be Aware Of Adversaries
1 Kings 11:13 Then the Lord raised up against Solomon, an adversary, Hadad the Edomite, from the royal line of Edom,
Hadad was an Edomite. They were descendants of Esua. Yes, that's right, the brother to Jacob. The Edomites were an enemy to Israel. Joab had tried to eliminate all the men of Edom, but this man Edom had escaped as a boy to Egypt. Hearing that King David had died, he purposed to avenge his family.
K and A, I say all this to make sure you know that not all will be peaches and cream, peanut butter and jelly, or cake and ice cream. Not all will go just the way we think it should. sometimes our potatoes will have no gravy, and our cake no icing. This is normal. But, take heart you can overcome them by the blood of the Lamb. Jesus said that troubles will come but take heart for you can overcome just as he did. Daughters, God will give you victory over the enemy. Put your trust in him!

Amen, Jude 1:25
Amen
Jude 1:25 to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power, and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen.
Well, I probably told this story before... but here we go again... When I grew up, we had a pastor in the Ickesburg area that had two churches during the same period my father pastored at Saville. His name; the Reverend James Gold. He had several quirks, yet everyone loved him and his wife, Elenore. The most prevalent characteristic to me was his booming voice. He learned to project it and he could do it well! We had many community services between churches for Grandpa and he had a strong relationship. The one word that always reminds me of him is "amen". Actually it is... A-MEN! I rarely hear the word without repeating in my head as he would say it. He said it and all knew that that one word ended the service. There was nothing more to be said!
And, that is how this verse and this book ends, A-MEN! Nothing more to be said! God, the only God. God, our Savior, the One to whom all honor is due! There is no greater power or authority. Not now nor will there ever be! Throughout the ages all glory and majesty belong to him and to his son Jesus Christ our Lord!!! A-MEN! (That says it all, there's nothing more to be said.)
