Philippians 4:8 ~ The God of Peace

 

Philippians 4:8

The apostle Paul said,

"Finally, Brothers and Sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, 

whatever is admirable --- 

if anything is excellent or praiseworthy ---

Think about such things

and

The God of Peace

Will be with you.

We are seeking more Peace. 

As the Nation arrives into the Midterm Elections, we want peace. We want to break the cycle of outrageous claims, ridiculous rhetoric. We wish to be less surprised at fiery trials.


The Good Old Days filled with Peace. And Peaceful Allies. Not exactly. 

The UK had ongoing Civil War since the time of Charles I who was executed in 1649. And then again, Civil War with Scotland in The Battle of Culloden, the final confrontation of the Jacobite rising of 1745 - all but destroying Scottish Culture. 1775–1783 War for Independence. The French Revolution lasted 10 years from 1789 to 1799. 1812 War with the US. 1861-1865 American Civil War and then the World Wars.

We need to be less surprised and intrigued by harsh circumstances and realize every life and every culture fights the good fight or the fall over fight. Don't be hateful or personal. Fight the good fight for those younger generations.  The unborn. 


How do we find peace?

The "God of Peace" says, "Brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable — if anything is excellent or praiseworthy — think about such things and the God of peace will be with you.”

When we have dreams of peace, love, joy and prosperity. This should be unifying, not looking for war and hate to find trouble only serving as distraction.

It seems we have the Animal Farm Truth. 

We can focus on the hate, the war or the longing for more or easier life, instead we can build. Build lives, education, opportunities, dreams, families, marriage or slog around. Affordable childbirth instead of affordable abortion. If we have Hospitals helping children with cancer and health challenges.

 Why hasn't anyone stepped up to have childbirth affordably?

Why isn't our education as affordable as Canada and Europe. 


To focus on upbuilding. Goals, takes us far.

Refuse the candidates who are not telling the truth. Diligently see lies have led to Tyranny. Theft leads to Tyranny consequences. Find Solutions Providers. Delete false providers rhetoric.

Abba, our Good and Joyous Father,

John found he could recognize You 

finding You are God of Love.

David found You to be God of Compassion as Father.

Jonah found You to be slow to anger, 

relenting to send calamity.

Paul found You to be God of endurance and encouragement. 

Finding Jesus to be our hope of Glory.

You are God who prefers the aroma of toasting bread in Your Temple. 

We find You have given us a recipe for Peace we can hold on to! And go far!

We pray for more Heaven on earth for ourselves and our cares. 

More Heaven on earth for those we love 

and have new beginnings as school starts again. 

For more Joy. More Love. 

For our Nation to trust in God and find Peace. 

More Heaven on earth as the Children of God 

fill this good earth 

of Your creation 

with prayers for Heaven.

The Children of God and the Nations seeking Your Brightness, 

will delight in Your Good Will. 

Continuing to Pray with Love and Hope - Nourishing our souls in Worship. Soaking our souls with 

Your Love and Nourishment.

We see prayers being answered. 

We pray with hope for the

weather experienced in the

first two centuries Anno Domini,

will abate and be good weather again.

Praying for safety and prosperity in these days.

More of Jesus Christ's Holy Spirit. 

Please continue to pray for peace and the wishes of our parents and great and grandparents to be fulfilled in a peaceful and complete manner. 

 God is moving and working 

and the joy of finding answered prayers.

Dwell in me,

Dwell in us,

Dwell in those we Love,

Help us to seek You first.

Peace and the Joy God gives us.

And we will finish well, 

in Jesus Christ. 

Thy Kingdom come

Thy will be done

on earth

as it is

in Heaven. 

And we will be blessed indeed. 

Jesus the Lord. Alleluia

and Amen.

Psalm 85 ~ Favorable †

Psalm 23

Surely goodness and mercy 

shall follow Me 

 all the days 

of My Life

Psalm 85

Lord, You were favorable to Your land;

    

You restored the fortunes of Jacob.

2 You forgave the iniquity of Your people;

    You covered all their sin. 

Selah

3 You withdrew all Your wrath;

    You turned from Your hot anger.

4 Restore us again,

 O God of our salvation,

    and 

put away Your indignation toward us!

5 Will You be angry with us forever?

    Will you prolong Your anger to all generations?

6 Will You not revive us again,

    that 

Your people may rejoice 

in You?

7 Show us Your steadfast love, O Lord,

    and 

grant us Your Salvation.

8 Let me hear what God 

The Lord will speak,

    for

 He will speak peace to His people, 

to 

His saints;

    but 

let them not turn back 

to folly.

9 Surely His salvation is near 

to those who fear Him,

    that 

Glory may dwell in our land.

10 Steadfast Love and faithfulness meet;

    righteousness and peace kiss each other.

11 Faithfulness springs up from the ground,

    and 

Righteousness 

looks down from the sky.

12 Yes, the Lord 

Will give what is good,

    and 

our land will yield its increase.

13 Righteousness 

Will go before Him

    and 

make His footsteps 

a Way

Philippians 4:19 

My God will supply every need of Yours 

according to His riches 

in Glory 

in 

Christ Jesus. 

We have experienced the weather of the first two centuries AD Anno Domini. Wild. Deadly. The word scary is just appropriate. And when we remember the clear skies and water in Venice, we see how quickly the world can be so clean. With all the weather, it is time to pray daily for good weather worldwide.  Jesus Christ told us to pray with hope.  

I recently read an article about Rees Howells.  The praying man in Wales was Rees Howells, founder of the Bible College of Wales in Swansea. During World War II, he and his students gathered every evening from 7:00 PM until midnight. Many times praying through the night. Praying for sustained, strategic intercession over major military campaigns, including Dunkirk and the defense of Moscow. Rees Howells and the praying intercessors never claimed the Victory. The Victory in Jesus Christ for The Lord. 

We should pray for the weather.  These prayer intercessors did not grow weary. The Battle is the Lord's. 

Mark 1:5

And saying, 

‘The time is fulfilled, 

and 

The Kingdom of God is at hand; 

repent 

and 

believe in the Gospel.”

Romans 12:1

Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, 

in view of God's mercy, 

to offer your bodies 

as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God 

– this is true worship.

Titus 3:5

He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, 

but because of His Mercy.

He saved us 

through the washing of rebirth 

and 

renewal by the Holy Spirit 

Micah 6:8

He has shown all you people what is good.

 And what does the LORD require of you? 

To act justly 

and to love mercy 

and to walk humbly with your God.

Matthew 6:33

Seek first His Kingdom and His righteousness, a

nd all these things will be given to you as well.

1 Samuel 2:7-10 ~ He Will

 

1 Samuel 2:7-10

The Lord makes poor and makes rich;

He brings low and He exalts.

He raises up the poor from the dust;

He lifts the needy from the ash heap

to make them sit with princes

and 

inherit a seat of honor.

For the pillars of the earth are the Lord's,

and on them 

He has set the world.

“He will guard the feet of His faithful ones,

but the wicked shall be cut off in darkness,

for not by might 
shall a man prevail.

The adversaries of the Lord shall be broken to pieces;

against them 

He will thunder in Heaven.

The Lord will judge 

the ends of the earth;

He will 

give strength to his king

and 
exalt the horn 

of His anointed.”

Yesterday, I was having time spent with the Lord and reading His Word. I wondered what I should be doing that is more.  And I was so moved reading diligent prayer spent with Jesus Christ, His Father and Holy Spirit is what He looks for.

Hannah wanted to have a life she felt was fulfilling. 

The answer was Prayer.

Who has said this in God's Word:

God Himself. 

The earth is the Lord's and the Fullness Thereof. 

Genesis to Revelation.

Mary's Song. Mary, Mother of God.

And this portion carrying us from  

Let us Have Light 

to 

The Light of Jesus Christ in Revelation.

Struggling with her heart to fulfill her God given purpose. Struggling to ask our Father for answered prayer in despair. Hannah had great despair and felt the world was empty.

Surrounded (Fight My Battles)
Michael W. Smith

That's how we fight our battles
This is how I fight my battles
This is how I fight my battles
This is how I fight my battles
(Praise and worship)
This is how I fight my battles
This is what we doing tonight
It may look like I'm surrounded
But I'm surrounded by You
It may look like I'm surrounded
But I'm surrounded by You
It may look like I'm surrounded
But I'm surrounded by You
It may look like I'm surrounded
But I'm surrounded by You
This is how I fight my battles
This is how I fight my battles
This is how I fight my battles
This is how I fight my battles
This is how I fight my battles
This is how I fight my battles
This is how I fight my battles
This is how I fight my battles
It may look like I'm surrounded
But I'm surrounded by You!

Now, Feel His Name. Jesus. 

Apply Prayer. 

This is where all Battles are Won.

We are anointed in the New Covenant by Jesus Christ for God's Plan.

We have only to ask Jesus to live in us, forever. 

God of Love. God of Encouragement.

God tells us of His Hope and Good Future. 

And God Himself has told us what to do in troubled times. 

Pray.

 Psalm 24

The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof,

the world and those who dwell therein,

2 for He has founded it upon the seas

and 

established it upon the rivers.

3 Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord?

And who shall stand in His Holy Place?

4 He who has clean hands and a pure heart,

who does not lift up his soul to what is false

and 

does not swear deceitfully.

5 He will receive blessing from the Lord

and 

righteousness from the God of His Salvation.

6 Such is the generation of those who seek Him,

who seek the face of the God of Jacob. 

Selah

7 Lift up your heads, O gates!

And be lifted up, O ancient doors,

that 

The King of Glory 

may come in.

8 Who is this King of Glory?

The Lord, strong and mighty,

the Lord, 

Mighty in battle!

9 Lift up your heads, O Gates!

And lift them up, O Ancient Doors,

that 

The King of Glory 

may come in.

10 Who is this King of Glory?

The Lord of Hosts,

He is the King of Glory!

Daniel 10

10 And behold, a hand touched me and set me trembling on my hands and knees. 11 And he said to me, “O Daniel, man greatly loved, understand the words that I speak to you, and stand upright, for now I have been sent to you.”

And when he had spoken this word to me, I stood up trembling. 12 Then he said to me, “Fear not, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart to understand and humbled yourself before your God, your words have been heard, and I have come because of your words. 

1 John 5:4

For everyone 

who has been born of God 

overcomes the world.

And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.

1 John 5:5 

Who is it that overcomes the world

 except the one 

who believes that 

Jesus is the Son of God?

These Verses are from Hannah. Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow

1 Samuel 2:1-10

2 Then Hannah prayed and said:

“My heart rejoices in the Lord;

in the Lord my horn is lifted high.

My mouth boasts over my enemies,

for I delight in your deliverance.

2 “There is no one holy like the Lord;

there is no one besides you;

there is no Rock like our God."

Ephesians 5:8

for at one time 

you were darkness, 

but now 

you are Light in the Lord. 

Walk as children of 

Light
