Matthew 6:6-14 ~ Pray










Matthew 6:6-14






6 But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door 
and pray to your Father, Who is in secret. 
And your Father Who sees in secret will reward you.

7 “And when you pray, 
do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do, 
for they think that they will be heard for their many words.
 8 Do not be like them, for your Father 
knows what you need before you ask Him. 

9 Pray then like this:


Our Father in Heaven,
Hallowed 
be Your Name.

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 trespasses,
    as we forgive those who trespass against us.

Lead us not into temptation,
   Deliver us from evil.


14 For if you forgive others their trespasses, 
your Heavenly Father will also forgive you.












  
  
  Exodus 3:14

God said to Moses, 
"I AM WHO I AM. 
This is what you are to say to the Israelites: 

'I AM has sent me to you.'

  
  Hebrews 13:8 
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.
  




1 Chronicles 29:11

Yours, 
O Lord, is the Greatness and the Power and the Glory 
and the victory and the majesty, 
for all that is in the Heavens 
and in the earth is Yours. 
Yours is the Kingdom, O Lord, 
and You are exalted 
as Head 
above All.







Psalm 145:10-12

All Your Works shall give Thanks to You, O Lord,
    and 
All Your saints shall bless You!

11 They shall speak of
the Glory
of Your Kingdom
and tell of Your Power

12 to make known 
to the children of man 
Your Mighty Deeds,
    and 
The Glorious Splendor of Your Kingdom.





Daniel 2:37

You, O King, The King of Kings, 
to Whom the God of Heaven 
has given 
The Kingdom,
 The Power, 
and the Might, 
and the Glory











Revelation 1:5-6

From Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, 
and the Ruler of the kings of the earth.

 To Him 
Who loves us 
and 
has released us 
from our sins by His blood
 
Who has made us to be a Kingdom, 
priests to His God and Father
— to Him 
be the glory and power forever and ever! 
Amen. 






Revelation 5:13

And I heard every creature 
in Heaven 
and on earth 
and under the earth 
and in the sea, 
and all that is in them, saying: 

"To Him 
Who sits on The Throne 
and to the Lamb 
be praise and honor
 and glory and power forever and ever!"










Abba, Father God,


Dwell in us, Father.
Help the ones we Love to have You dwelling in them.
Help us to Seek You First.
And we will finish well in Jesus Christ.


Help us to see
Help us to seek
Help us to be
More Heaven upon earth.


We want to live, to speak
to see
You
and what 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



Praise Your gift of life in Jesus. 
Amen.

Psalm 98 ~ The Lord has made known His Salvation !!!


Today was an extraordinary Church Service
at
St. Martin's Episcopal Church
in Houston, Texas






Father and Dr., Rector, Russ Levenson, Jr. is retiring.
No one wanted less than a Glorious Sunday 
Worshiping God.



St. Martin's needs a YouTube Song Page,
Having searched all the continents for "Jesus Christ is Risen Today" 
and this is spot on.



Psalm 98





Oh 
Sing to the Lord a new song,
    for 
He has done marvelous things!

His right hand and His Holy arm
    have worked salvation for Him.

The Lord has made known His Salvation

    He has revealed His Righteousness 
in the sight of the nations.

He has remembered 
his steadfast love and faithfulness
    to the house of Israel.

All the ends of the earth have seen
    the Salvation of our God.

Make a joyful noise to the Lord, 
all the earth;
    break forth into joyous song 
and sing praises!

Sing praises to the Lord with the lyre,
    with the lyre and the sound of melody!

With trumpets 
and the sound of the horn
    make a joyful noise before the King, 
The Lord!

Let the sea roar, and all that fills it;
    the world and those who dwell in it!

8 Let the rivers clap their hands;
    let the hills sing 
for joy together
 before the Lord, 
for He comes
    to judge the earth.

He will judge the world 
with righteousness,
    and the peoples 
with equity.

Recently, Neil Cavuto, of Fox News, had Russ Levenson on to ask him to remain in the pulpit. 
You wouldn't want to miss this Sunday at St. Martin's Episcopal Church:




Psalm 1


Blessed is the man
who walks not in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stands in the way of sinners,
nor sits in the seat of scoffers;
2 but his delight is in the Law of the LORD,
and on His Law he meditates day and night.

3 He is like a tree
planted by streams of water
that yields its fruit in its season,
and its leaf does not wither.
In all that he does, he prospers.
4 The wicked are not so,
but are like chaff that the wind drives away.

Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;
for the LORD knows the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked will perish.



We will pray this for Russ Levenson and his family. And our Church Family as well. We pray
in the Highest Name of Jesus for these abundant Blessings. Amen.





“Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good. 
His love endures forever.” 
{Psalm 136:1}


“I will sing to the Lord for He has been good to me.” 
{Psalm 13:6}


“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.”
 {Hebrews 13:8}


“And I will be a fire around her, 
declares the Lord. 
And I will bring glory in her midst.” 
{Zechariah 2:5}


“For God is working in you, 
giving you the desires and the power 
to do what pleases Him.” 
{Philippians 2:13}


“For the Lord your God is going with you. 
He will fight for you 
against 
your enemy 
and 
He will give you victory.” 
{Deuteronomy 20:4)


“But seek first the kingdom of God, 
and His righteousness, 
and 
all these things will be given to you.” 
{Matthew 6:33}



“Look among the nations and see; 
wonder
 and be astounded. 
For I am doing a work in your day
 that you would not believe even if I told you.” 
{Habakuk 1:5}



“The Lord was with him 
and caused everything he did to succeed.” 
{Genesis 39:23}


“In the same way, 
let your light shine before others, 
that they may see your good deeds
 and glorify your Father in Heaven.” 
{Matthew 5:16}


“No unbelief made him waver concerning the promises of God, 
but he grew strong in his faith 
as he gave glory to God.” 
{Romans 4:20}



“I am the LORD your God, 
Who teaches you what is good for you 
and leads you along the paths you should follow.” 
{Isaiah 48:17}



“You are faithful, Lord, 
to strengthen and protect me from the evil one. 
I trust in Your faithfulness.” 
{2 Thessalonians 3:3}




“I will proclaim the Name of the Lord. 
Give our God the greatness He deserves. 
He is a rock. 
What He does is perfect. 
All of His ways are fair. 
He is a faithful God who does no wrong. 
He is honorable and reliable.” 
{Deuteronomy 32:3-4}







Abba, Father God,

Help our prayers be fruitful. 
Let our conversation about joy, need, praise. 


Heal the hurting, 
uplift the families. 
Especially in High Water.


Send Your vast blessings. Father God, we pray,
Speak the Word, Father God, 
and we know Your healing. 

Prayers are being answered. Thank You.

Dwell in us, Father.
Help the ones we Love to have You dwelling in them.
Help us to Seek You First.
And we will finish well in Jesus Christ.


We pray for those facing
difficult days
and for the entire Nation.

Worldwide Peace.


Praise Your gift of life in Jesus. 
Amen.

Hebrews 12 ~ For our God is a consuming fire !!!





Hebrews 12





Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us

Looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, 
Who for the joy that was set before Him 
endured the cross, despising the shame, 

And is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.

3 Consider Him who endured from sinners such hostility against Himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted. 4 In your struggle against sin you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood. 5 And have you forgotten the exhortation that addresses you as sons?




“My son, do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord,
    nor be weary when reproved by him.
6 For the Lord disciplines the one He loves,
    and chastises every son whom He receives.”

7 It is for discipline that you have to endure. God is treating you as sons. For what son is there whom his father does not discipline? 

8 If you are left without discipline, in which all have participated, then you are illegitimate children and not sons. 9 Besides this, we have had earthly fathers who disciplined us and we respected them. Shall we not much more be subject to the Father of spirits and live? 

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,  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. 

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; 16 that no one is sexually immoral or unholy like Esau, who sold his birthright for a single meal. 17 For you know that afterward, when he desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, 
for he found no chance to repent, though he sought it with tears.



18 For you have not come to what may be touched, a blazing fire and darkness and gloom and a tempest 19 and the sound of a trumpet and a voice whose words made the hearers beg that no further messages be spoken to them. 20 For they could not endure the order that was given, “If even a beast touches the mountain, it shall be stoned.” 21 Indeed, so terrifying was the sight that Moses said, “I tremble with fear.” 




22 But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, 
the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable angels in festal gathering,  and to the assembly of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven

And to God, the judge of all, and to the spirits of the righteous made perfect 

And to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel.

25 See that you do not refuse Him who is speaking. 

For if they did not escape when they refused Him 
Who warned them on earth, much less will we escape if we reject Him who warns from Heaven. 

At that time His voice shook the earth, but now He has promised, 

“Yet once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens.” 

27 This phrase, “Yet once more,” indicates the removal of things that are shaken—that is, things that have been made—in order that the things that cannot be shaken may remain. 

Therefore let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe...

For our God is a consuming fire.










Come hell or high water, we will Rely Upon The Lord God Almighty, The Lord of All Heavenly Hosts. His Salvation in Jesus Christ, His Only Son.






Ephesians 3:20-21

Now to Him who is able to do 
immeasurably more than all we ask 
or imagine, 
according to His power 
that is at work within us, 
to Him be the Glory 
in the church 
and in Christ Jesus 
throughout all generations, 
forever 
and 
ever. 

Amen



Abba, Father God,

Help our prayers be fruitful. 
Let our conversation about joy, need, praise. 
Let it be humble, let it be uplifting. 

Thank you, Father, You incline your ear whenever we call upon You. 

Heal the hurting, uplift the families. 
especially in High Water.


Send Your vast blessings. Father God, 
You are truly are as vast as the Universe itself and as gentle as a breeze. 
Speak the Word, Father God, and we know Your healing. 

Prayers for healing in health are being answered.

Dwell in us, Father.
Help the ones we Love to have You dwelling in them.
Help us to Seek You First.
And we will finish well in Jesus Christ.

Praise Your gift of life in Jesus. 
Amen.

About Me

My photo
Email registry at bottom.! “All Scripture is inspired by God” (2 Timothy 3:16). Men “moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God” (2 Peter 1:21). The Holy Spirit carried men along, moving and guiding them as they wrote in their own words what God wanted them to say. The Bible is unique; comprised of 80 separate books, & written over a period of thousands of years by more than 40 writers with one Author, spanning the centuries, different states of peace & war & different situations in life. The Bible answers the question: of who is God, who is man & what can their relationship can be. Although the Bible was written on perishable material and copied by hand for many centuries, its accuracy is not in doubt, proven by Dead Sea Scrolls and papyrus from 2,000 years. The Bible has survived persecution & criticism to be read with great interest in each generation. The Bible gives witness to the greatness of the Creator. A loving Father concerned for all of his creation. With each verse of the bible witnessing to God is love and the multitude & vastness of His attributes. The Bible was written for you. <><
