Psalm 130
A Song of Ascents.
Out of the depths I cry to you, O Lord!
2 O Lord, hear my voice!
Let your ears be attentive
to the voice of my pleas for mercy!
5 I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,
3 If you, O Lord, should mark iniquities,
O Lord, who could stand?
4 But with you there is forgiveness,
that you may be feared.
and in His Word I hope
6 my soul waits for the Lord
more than watchmen for the morning,
more than watchmen for the morning.
7 O Israel, hope in the Lord!
For with the Lord there is steadfast love,
and with Him is plentiful redemption.
8 And he will redeem Israel
from all his iniquities.
We are all ascending.
After The Transfiguration, Jesus began working to help the father with the son and then taught the Disciples. It's very probably The Transfiguration was actually the 2 km Mount Tabor hike.
Regardless if you'd seen the Song of Ascents from the Southern Wall or the Entrance, you can be assured the music to the Ascending Psalm is going to have a range of musical notes.
We are all ascending.
In faith, we say:
Isaiah 45:22-25
Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God,
Isaiah 45:22-25
Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God,
and there is none else.
Romans 10:9
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead,
Romans 10:9
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead,
thou shalt be saved.
Philippians 2:10
At the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth
Philippians 2:10
At the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth
We know God has plans for us, a Hope and Future. We grow concerned, all of us, every day, God plans for His Kingdom for Eternity and life isn't His Domain. God is our Ascent. In our soul, where we don't have a brain, and our memories and hopes truly live - God sends His assurance - Life is now.
Acts 13:15-16
15 After the reading from the Law and the Prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent a message to them, saying, “Brothers, if you have any word of encouragement for the people, say it.” 16 So Paul stood up, and motioning with his hand said:
“Men of Israel and you who fear God, listen
Regardless if we consider the Entrance, the Southern Wall, Mount Tabor or Mount Arbel. Or regardless if we think of the fleeting High Notes or the refrain of the low notes - we are walking the Road to Emmaus.
Listening to Father God, we will have our hearts warm. Jesus is for you. God of Encouragement. Power in The Scriptures. Power in The Word of God.
Hebrews 12:10-15
10 For they disciplined us for a short time as it seemed best to them, but he disciplines us for our good, that we may share his holiness. 11 For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.
12 Therefore lift your drooping hands and strengthen your weak knees, 13 and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be put out of joint but rather be healed.
14 Strive for peace with everyone, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord. 15 See to it that no one fails to obtain the grace of God; that no “root of bitterness” springs up and causes trouble, and by it many become defiled
Ascending is certain
Abba, Father God,
You speak into our Hearts and Mind.
To open the Scriptures is to find, the Word of God is alive.
Father God, Life forever more.
You give rest. Restoration and renewal.
We ask Your Willing blessings upon us,
May our Lord Father God bless us and keep us.
May our Lord Father God, make Your Face to shine upon us.
And be gracious to us.
Father God please lift Your countenance upon us, smile and give us Your peace.
We ask you to put the Name of Jesus Christ upon us, and we are Blessed of God.
Jesus Christ, pray for us, Speak Your Word, bring more Heaven to earth.
We ask Your Abundant and Flowing Blessings upon us. Keep us safe from disasters, quieten storms and keep the Oceans safe.
Help us to seek You first and Your Kingdom.
To Live Love, Joy and Peace. Uphold those we Love. We Trust You.
We ask for the virus to end and Joy in Recovery.
We pray for Your Word to be Spoken. Your help.
God Himself Bless, Sustain, Comfort, Guide
Jesus Christ Live in us.
Help us to seek You first.
Amen!
