John 14
14 “Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. 2 In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you?
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. 4 And you know the way to where I am going."
5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?”
6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him.”
8 Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.”
9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does his works. 11 Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else believe on account of the works themselves.
12 Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father. 13 Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it.
15 If you love me, you will keep my commandments.
16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever, 17 even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you.
18 “I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. 19 Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live. 20 In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you. 21 Whoever has my commandments and keeps them, he is who loves me. And he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and manifest myself to him.”
22 Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, how is it that you will manifest yourself to us, and not to the world?”
23 Jesus answered him, “If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. 24 Whoever does not love me does not keep my words. And the word that you hear is not mine but the Father's who sent me.
25 “These things I have spoken to you while I am still with you. 26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.
27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.
28 You heard me say to you, ‘I am going away, and I will come to you.’ If you loved me, you would have rejoiced, because I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I. 29 And now I have told you before it takes place, so that when it does take place you may believe. 30 I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming. He has no claim on me, 31 but I do as the Father has commanded me, so that the world may know that I love the Father.
Rise, let us go from here.
Mount Tabor is the mountain easily climbed, pretty well determined to be the site of the Transfiguration.
And would easily fit into 2020 being an uphill climb.
And in going with the Lord God we are going forth in this 2020 year.
Isaiah 57:10
You wearied yourself by such going about, but you would not say, 'It is hopeless.' You found renewal of your strength, and so you did not faint.
Patmos and Mount Tabor are a little similar and John was there for both. This is the view from John's Cave on Patmos.
One Sunday, the cave walls fell away and John was sitting with Jesus about 60 years later.
When we think about renewal, where would you anticipate your soul to live in your body? Brain? Most people would say near the heart - giving the heart importance in emotional responses.
Deliberation. Make your soul deliberately placed for heart, prayer, love and emotions renewal daily. Making our eternal soul
Prepared for the Lord.
What if your soul has a entrance like the cave John lived in on Patmos?
Job 14:14
If someone dies, will they live again?
All the days of my hard service I will wait for my renewal to come.
Matthew 19:28
Jesus said to them, "Truly I tell you, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones,
Jesus said to them, "Truly I tell you, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones,
judging the twelve tribes of Israel."
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
Your brain will not remember your life - your soul will.
Abba,
Live and dwell in us this day and always.
Live in those we Love, we ask in Jesus Christ.
When we seek You first, Father God. Each day is sufficient.
We find more Heaven on earth. And give more Heaven on earth.
God's Mercies Renew. Daily. This optimism is called in Scripture,
"Daily He Loadeth us with Benefits."
The Joy of the Lord is Strength.
Soulful prayers, a tool for the heart, brain and soul. To deliberately find what is joyful in Life. When one is excessively burdened, the beginning of mindful prayers can make the eyes mist up. Fine, well and good. The Journey has begun to find what is good to create Strength and Joy. Thanks be unto God, our Father.
Our Father in Heaven,
hallowed be Your Name.
10 Your kingdom come,
Your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
Yours is the Kingdom,
the Power
and the Glory.
Jesus help us in this Nation to be in Your Word Joyfully
filling us with Your Kingdom, Power and Glory.
Covered in God's Love,
President Donald Trump
Vice President Mike Pence
The Presidential Team
Dr. Anthony Fauci, Dr. Robert Redfield, Dr. Deborah Birx
and their families.
Governor Abbott, Doug Ducey
and all 50 Governors and Legislatures.
Today, and always, Senator Tim Scott,
The end of trouble surrounding this Virus.
Praying for World Wide Recovery,
Peace, Liberty and Justice.
A calm Gulf of Mexico we pray.
Amen in
Jesus.
Jesus.
