Revelation 1 ~ and in the midst +

Ephesians 3:14-16

14 For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, 
15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, 
16 that according to the riches of his glory 
he may grant you to be strengthened 
with power through his Spirit in your inner being,

Revelation 22:1 

Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, 

as clear as crystal, 

flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb

Matthew 13:31-32

31 Jesus put before them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that a man planted in his field. 32 Although it is the smallest of all seeds, yet it grows into the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, 
that the birds of the air come and 
nest  among the branches.”

Revelation 1

1 The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show to his servants the things that must soon take place. 

He made it known by sending his angel to his servant John, 2 who bore witness to the word of God and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, even to all that he saw. 3 Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear, and who keep what is written in it, for the time is near.


4 John to the seven churches that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven spirits who are before his throne, 5 and from Jesus Christ the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of kings on earth. To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood 6 and made us a kingdom, priests to his God and Father, to him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. 7 Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him, and all tribes of the earth will wail on account of him. Even so. Amen. 8 "I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty."

9 I, John, your brother and partner in the tribulation and the kingdom and the patient endurance that are in Jesus, was on the island called Patmos on account of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus. 

10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and I heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet 11 saying, "Write what you see in a book and send it to the seven churches, to Ephesus and to Smyrna and to Pergamum and to Thyatira and to Sardis and to Philadelphia and to Laodicea." 

12 Then I turned to see the voice that was speaking to me, and on turning I saw seven golden lampstands, 13 and in the midst of the lampstands one like a son of man, clothed with a long robe and with a golden sash around his chest. 14 The hairs of his head were white, like white wool, like snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire, 15 his feet were like burnished bronze, refined in a furnace, and his voice was like the roar of many waters. 16 In his right hand he held seven stars, from his mouth came a sharp two-edged sword, and his face was like the sun shining in full strength. 

17 When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. But he laid his right hand on me, saying, 

"Fear not, I am the first and the last, 18 and the living one. I died, and behold I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of Death and Hades. 

Write therefore the things that you have seen, those that are and those that are to take place after this. 20 As for the mystery of the seven stars that you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden lampstands, the seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven churches.

And one day, God's Holy Spirit will say to us all, "Come."

We will fly to Heaven.

And we will see what John saw 60 years after Jesus Ascended into Heaven.

But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. 11 Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; 
he is Christ the Lord.

Abba, Father God,

Moses left a prayer, and this prayer probably interested David and Solomon. Psalm 90 when Moses prayed to be happy.

So teach us to number our days
that we may get a heart of wisdom.

Let us be pleased to Look for Your mercies renewing each day,

Help us to remember the Lord's Prayer Jesus gave us saying, "Give us this day!"

To be so pleased to know this day is part of eternity. 

Return, O Lord! How long? Have pity on your servants!

David loved to look for Your tender Heart, Father God. David dwelled in anticipation of Your Mercy. We will follow their example and melt thinking of Your Great Love.

Satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.

We love Moses looking for You, Father God, and happiness to rejoice and be glad in. Moses speaks well with You, we can say this prayer is a Rock to stand upon in prayer.

Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, and for as many years as we have seen evil.

Surely not a pleasing thought. Yet, to know the Words of God is to know the Power of God's Word. Your Prayer says, "Lead us not into Temptation." We know You look for heart. Samuel saw the process of David's family working the day Samuel came to anoint David, and, Jesse, his father said move on without David. We know David did find himself anointed of God. God, we pray in all hope for all things work together for good, for those who Love You and work according to Your purpose.

Let your work be shown to your servants, and your glorious power to their children.

Millenniums have seen the Beloved of God pray for their children. This loving concern is far from tedious to You, Father. God of Love. Jesus our Salvation. And for the people You have given us.

Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us,and establish the work of our hands upon us; yes, establish the work of our hands!

Abba, we Love the work of Jesus' hands. Bless us to remember the Hands of Jesus and be grateful. And Pleased Jesus is in the Paradise He gave His Father - a new Heaven and a new earth.

Let us live to bring more Heaven on this earth. And with Your Love, Guidance, Encouragement, Joy and Hope - we will bring More Heaven to earth.

Thank You Jesus, Amen.

Matthew 1 ~ the Family of Jesus Christ

Post from 2014

Matthew 1

1 The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

2 Abraham was the father of Isaac, and Isaac the father of Jacob, and Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers, 3and Judah the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar, and Perez the father of Hezron, and Hezron the father of Ram,[a] 4and Ram the father of Amminadab, and Amminadab the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon the father of Salmon, 5and Salmon the father of Boaz by Rahab, and Boaz the father of Obed by Ruth, and Obed the father of Jesse, 6and Jesse the father of David the king.

And David was the father of Solomon by the wife of Uriah, 7 and Solomon the father of Rehoboam, and Rehoboam the father of Abijah, and Abijah the father of Asaph,[b] 8 and Asaph the father of Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat the father of Joram, and Joram the father of Uzziah, 9 and Uzziah the father of Jotham, and Jotham the father of Ahaz, and Ahaz the father of Hezekiah, 10 and Hezekiah the father of Manasseh, and Manasseh the father of Amos,[c] and Amos the father of Josiah, 11 and Josiah the father of Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the deportation to Babylon.

12 And after the deportation to Babylon: Jechoniah was the father of Shealtiel,[d] and Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel, 13 and Zerubbabel the father of Abiud, and Abiud the father of Eliakim, and Eliakim the father of Azor, 14 and Azor the father of Zadok, and Zadok the father of Achim, and Achim the father of Eliud, 15 and Eliud the father of Eleazar, and Eleazar the father of Matthan, and Matthan the father of Jacob, 16 and Jacob the father of Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom Jesus was born, who is called Christ.

17 So all the generations from Abraham to David were fourteen generations, and from David to the deportation to Babylon fourteen generations, and from the deportation to Babylon to the Christ fourteen generations.

What are we to make of this list? For starters, all of these people, whether we know their lives, stories, hearts - all are important to God. Very important.

And all of the people Father God placed in the genetics of Jesus where flawed. Two prostitutes. Thieves, liars. And all of them loved by God. We know most of these stories from the Bible. From Sunday School.

Boaz was so loved for the way he cared for Ruth and adopted Naomi, as Mother-in-law and adopted Grandmother, Solomon named the pillar by the front door of the Temple - Boaz. God loves heart.

And the list of Kings - some did well with what they were given and some made spectacular mistakes with their lives and the lives they were entrusted with. Remember David was a Shepherd and David's descendants were Shepherds as well. All Kings are recorded nicely for the rest of mankind to read. No pressure.

v. 11 Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the deportation to Babylon.


One of the clay tablets revealing the presence of the Judean royal house as prisoners in Babylon. Excavated from an arched building near the Ishtar Gate of ancient Babylon. The cuneiform texts, 595 - 570 B.C., contain lists of rations of barley and oil issued to the captive princes and artisans, including "Yaukin, king of the land of Yahud." This is a direct reference to Jeconiah. The other tablets mention his 5 sons accompanying him to Babylon. Staatliche Museum, Berlin

v. 12 ~ Zerubbabel marched or trudged back with the freed slaves into Israel with high hopes from Governor Nehemiah for Zerubbabel to become governor next. The people hope the curse God gave Zerubbabel will be removed, the sentence on his father, Jeconiah, for his impiety. To Jeconiah He had said Jeremiah 22:24, "though he were the signet upon My right hand, yet would I pluck thee thence; and I will give thee into the hand of them that seek thy life."

Haggai 2

¹ In the seventh month, on the twenty-first day of the month, the word of the LORD came by the hand of Haggai the prophet, ² "Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to all the remnant of the people, and say, ³ 'Who is left among you who saw this house in its former glory? How do you see it now? Is it not as nothing in your eyes?

⁴ Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel, declares the LORD. Be strong, O Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest. Be strong, all you people of the land, declares the LORD. Work, for I am with you, declares the LORD of hosts, ⁵ according to the covenant that I made with you when you came out of Egypt. My Spirit remains in your midst. Fear not.

⁶ For thus says the LORD of hosts: Yet once more, in a little while, I will shake the heavens and the earth and the sea and the dry land. ⁷ And I will shake all nations, so that the treasures of all nations shall come in, and I will fill this house with glory, says the LORD of hosts. ⁸ The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, declares the LORD of hosts. ⁹ The latter glory of this house shall be greater than the former, says the LORD of hosts. And in this place I will give peace, declares the LORD of hosts.'"

What a blessing. Who wouldn't hope for that Word from the Lord.

It was a blessing indeed. Yet Zerubbabel did not rule.The mercy God had for David continued.  Perhaps that is a blessing as well. But God's word cannot be broken.

But Basically. All of these people were called to be Shepherds.

Luke 12:48 
 From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked.

Romans 8:27
And the Father who knows all hearts knows what the Spirit is saying, for the Spirit pleads for us believers in harmony with God's own will.

Acts 20:28
Keep watch over yourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Be shepherds of the church of God, which he bought with his own blood.

Micah 6:8 
He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?


Gratitude is a major component to understanding blessing and living it. We are given gifts by God to live the life He gives us to have. Jesus called this abundant life. Jesus was a King who did not live as a King on this earth.

Something to think about.

Abba, Father God,

This week is our daughter Isabelle's Birthday and, today, she saw Jesus and smiled into Eternity. This week and today is our, Merit, 14 year Springer Spaniel's Birthday who survived cancer and then later passed on. Longer than the books said he'd ever live. This week is our Edward's Birthday. Who has a feverish cold and throat with coughing.

We had canceled a trip to see our son in Lansing, Michigan. And the phone rang asking us to a go with an old friend in a trip in Lansing, Michigan - we hope to go and see our oldest son anyway. The two were unrelated except in You. Bless our son to have Your Love and comfort and for his Husky, Jackson. Aging and much beloved.

Blessings upon You, Father God, for the prayers said over the years. What amazing stories we'd all have for the prayers said and amazing coincidences and answers. Even when we thought there were no answers. Answers like Police show up - coincidently. With lifelong Joy in the remembrance. Lives spared and lessons learned. The Police are mightily prayed for and appreciated. Sometimes the Police are Angels of God Himself.

Thanksgiving for all the mighty works of the Scriptures with all the threads God pulls together in answered prayer. All these threads becoming the Hem of His Robe - filling our heart, mind and soul with His Glory - in our wonder.

May The Blessing of OUr Father God, Himself, Alpha and Omega, Ancient of Days, Merciful and Mighty God of All be your blessing and for those you love. For His Mighty Love to warm this Nation each day.

For all the Nations who Trust in Him to have His own Peace. And the Comfort of our Helper to be int he hearts and prayers of those asking in God's favor for more Heaven on earth.

Blessed Be our Jesus Christ - Savior.

Amen!!!.

Daniel 1 : 5-13 ~ So he listened to them in this matter

Prior Post 11/16

Daniel 1 : 5-13

They were to be educated for three years, and at the end of that time they were to stand before the king. 6 Among these were Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah of the tribe of Judah. 7 And the chief of the eunuchs gave them names: Daniel he called Belteshazzar, Hananiah he called Shadrach, Mishael he called Meshach, and Azariah he called Abednego.
Daniel's Faithfulness

8 But Daniel resolved that he would not defile himself with the king's food, or with the wine that he drank. Therefore he asked the chief of the eunuchs to allow him not to defile himself. 9 And God gave Daniel favor and compassion in the sight of the chief of the eunuchs, 10 and the chief of the eunuchs said to Daniel, "I fear my lord the king, who assigned your food and your drink; for why should he see that you were in worse condition than the youths who are of your own age? So you would endanger my head with the king." 11 Then Daniel said to the steward whom the chief of the eunuchs had assigned over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, 12 "Test your servants for ten days; let us be given vegetables to eat and water to drink. 13 Then let our appearance and the appearance of the youths who eat the king's food be observed by you, and deal with your servants according to what you see."


 14 So he listened to them in this matter, and tested them for ten days. 15 At the end of ten days it was seen that they were better in appearance and fatter in flesh than all the youths who ate the king's food. 16 So the steward took away their food and the wine they were to drink, and gave them vegetables. 17 As for these four youths, God gave them learning and skill in all literature and wisdom, and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams. 18 At the end of the time, when the king had commanded that they should be brought in, the chief of the eunuchs brought them in before Nebuchadnezzar. 19 And the king spoke with them, and among all of them none was found like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah. Therefore they stood before the king. 20 And in every matter of wisdom and understanding about which the king inquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and enchanters that were in all his kingdom. 21 And Daniel was there until the first year of King Cyrus.



In many ways - we are Daniel in our own lives. Using our experiences to do the challenges our lives present.

Daniel had ideas on his own life.

We learn as we listen.







We are living in a unique time. Something new to the earth and the history.

My grandmother's life began in 1898 and she and her six brothers and six daughters rode in two covered wagons to see grandparents. And Grandmother saw the landing on the moon with real joy. Mother saw the polio vaccine steady the planet and parents watching over children. I saw the internet in the early nineties unfold a story about Cardinal songbirds and the time to load up was 30 minutes. I said call me when the water warms up. And my children explained video games and computers to me that we use effortlessly now.



Something New. The Donny Doberman says a lot about today's college indebted for 30 years generation. They don't count on company retirement. They are unsure of our government systems. They don't know if they will marry. And children? 







Christianity has been changing since the end, or the duration, of World War II. Where the liturgy was just read and at the end of the war people said well, we survived and that ol' liturgy didn't help much. Leaving the congregations to be older people today.

Bringing us... To Evangelism Today !!!


Myself included, We get into Bible Studies and we do just like this post, complain the good old days are gone. We judge ex-Presidents on their souls - like we are informed. We expect us all to pony up to one opinion.

And... the result is evangelism of the newbies - has them exiting as soon as they can find people who want to know them as they are.

We aren't told that they are worried to death the spouse is an alcoholic porn watcher.
We aren't told the child is flunked out of 4 universities and likes cocaine with a pot chaser.

We aren't told that they are worried to death the spouse is an alcoholic porn watcher.
We aren't told the child is flunked out of 4 universities and likes cocaine with a pot chaser.

We aren't usually told the child has a prison record.
We can't share if there is a new car - the tithe machine might happen.

We can't say too much about cancer. It's depressing.
We don't share the child is mentally ill.

 We don't hear - kids are living with their significant other. And now, we say that and don't say, "Let's pray they get married."

We can't say the child is in-debt for college and will never own a home.

We can't say that the medical bills are eating us alive and bankruptcy is the largest case for medical bills.

Will we help someone at Church get a job? What if they bring in a host of tell the others who I really am stories.









I'm dealing with a mother who is in dementia and a husband with a terminal diagnosis of 3 damages brain lobes - with stories of my ability that could go on and on - he is 6/4" and is sometimes angry and a lot of cussing and cussing. Edward is my beloved one who houses the soul of Edward.  Even when all day there is not a kind word. And yet, if you ask for support and don't talk too much - Edward is loving. And now on loan to me. Edward worked harder for my mom to go home from the hospital than anyone expects of a spouse.

We have learned not to engage into a culture of "I Am Over You." That is sheer death in bringing the culture into Christ sharing times.







What the HECK IS EVANGELISM???

It is when you and I say, "I'm going to pray for you." And if they are delighted, you say "Let's pray Now." And generally you are going to get - "Please!"

What the Heck is EVANGELISM?

SO GLAD YOU ASKED, It's when your Grandmother says when the Uncle is a r a t - that she "is Never Going To Stop Praying for MY SON !!!" And unlike Eli and Samuel - My Grandmother got results when the R A T was in his 70s and Jesus told his heart "I Love You." And a heck of a lot of the trauma there - was solved.


My favorite Bible Study on the Planet is Bill Hybels' "Just Walk Across the Room." We give back our gratitude to God - who gives us Eternity. And we explain "I love Jesus because of ..."

No one can doubt our life lessons - our experiences

1. My eyes have seen Salvation. And no one is going to personally debunk my real dreams of seeing Heaven like Isaiah - but God had stepped out of the room - I am not Isaiah. Where I was asked to "sell chairs" and now realize these are Heaven's seats.

2. My eyes have seen the down fall of the wicked. Yes. I am in my 50s and see bad habits have shown me real and spiritual death. Living Parables.

3. My eyes have seen God goes before me. My Bible and my Church Going have taught me - I depend on God for my strength and my joy and my delight and my security and HE WILL. People - even the ones we love - come and go - but God beckons us to live in Love forever.



What is Salvation?

A Work of God the Father. Learning to single out one person you love. Salvation comes from love. When the heart is open. Surely pray for many. But we live in this Generation.


What is Evangelism?

We live in a world where God said this about this generation...

"I will put my covenant in their hearts to know I am God." Jesus says that the Light of God shines in all of mankind. If you talk down to someone who has opinions about God - you are shutting down the fact that the Body of Christ has many talents and functions and ideas.

Evangelism is LISTENING. And this is gentle. We find a thought of scripture and we share not a herd of cattle but one pearl. Because the Truth is - God Saves. We do one thing - WE PRAY.

What Works.
Studying Prayer. People are comfortable to pray for others.
Time spent in Prayer works.
When we study the Bible and we pray for the needs of people we all collectively know - we are doing the meeting and praying Jesus asks.

We have to listen to each Person's unique soul tells their Unique Father God Creator.

John the Disciple wandered around, like you and me, saying "What?"

And in the decades passing, he realized he did really well to support Jesus to the very end. Because John knew something we need to Sing Daily in our Hearts.

GOD IS LOVE.

And when we love GOD. We are seen as righteous in the Eyes of God.

And that ... is where we want to be. Eternally today the gates of Heaven are open to us in Prayer.
The very seat of Father God is available to us in Jesus.




Father God,

All sparrows are known to You. Every single one. Because in Your unlimited Creation and Ideas and Solutions and LOVE. You love all of Creation.

And just like the Doberman in the video - each Child of God relates and reacts to You in exactly the way a Vast God reacts to us.

You are the God of Love.

Unfurl and surround, uphold and uplift each loved one we have. Each prayer request we know. The desire of the Nation of  extreme worriers now. Bless the voting to Bless Your Name and Your Heaven.

We need You, We expect You, We will see You.  Thank You for Your Work. Amen Amen Amen
Alleluia Jesus.

1 Corinthians 4:1-6 ~ Regard the Lord

1 Corinthians 4:1-6

 This is how one should regard us, as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God. 2 Moreover, it is required of stewards that they be found faithful. 3 But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you or by any human court. In fact, I do not even judge myself. 4 For I am not aware of anything against myself, but I am not thereby acquitted. 

It is the Lord who judges me. 
Therefore do not pronounce judgment before the time, before the Lord comes, who will bring to light the things now hidden in darkness and will disclose the purposes of the heart. Then each one will receive his commendation from God.

6 I have applied all these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, brothers, that you may learn by us not to go beyond what is written

Who wrote 1 Corinthians 4?

Well, a very young copy of the entire Chapter of 1 Corinthians 4 is found from the late 1st or early 2nd A.D - intact at the University of Michigan. And no one disputes 1 Corinthian 4 was written by Paul.

Christian doctrine accepted in the Bible fits together. We might explain Year A, B or C or perhaps Year 1,2 or 3. Yet the Ideas and Words of God flow. We are all going to the same Banquet of God in Heaven.

If we wander down the Road of Wonder...
we could say Timothy - in later years  -would advise later-in-life loved ones  with 1 Corinthians 4

Timothy was given to in his youth:

Timothy 4:12 
Let no one look down on your youthfulness, 
but rather
in speech, conduct, love, faith and purity, show yourself an example of those who believe.


The two principals flow.

Life - is flowing. Pushing us on in God's Plan. We are sorting fiercely in just about all we do.

Some people say the Scriptures are very harsh. Terrible.

And others are pushed out by life rushing them by - other things are more pleasing than listening to "The Good Word."

This is true when we approach Scripture feeling not very loved or nourished by Father God.

We have assailed ourselves with doubts of our self esteem - our worth - in Father God's Eyes, Mind and Heart. This is all of us.

Paul said Fight the Good Fight. Realize how astonishing God truly is. God placed His only Son in His Creation just as wealth swept rural Israel. Foreign Culture. The Jews were mocked and attacked in their own Proud Nation by money. BIG, BIG MONEY. The World would not see this prosperity again until the Renaissance was well, well past first bloom 16th Century.

Mary well understood culture and class and religion and ideas and modernization - war on earth.

If we allow one Scripture to be all our Scripture - we are limited. We have to stand on the Foundation of Jesus.

Jesus is the Light of the world. Jesus is the Light of mankind.

All things are made of Jesus Christ.

In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.  The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

Our God is the fire in us - not consuming. Our Light. The Image of God Himself, our Father dwells within.


1 Corinthians 6:11
You were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

John 1

12 To all who did receive him, who believed in his name, 
he gave the right to become children of God,
 who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, 
but of God.

How did we go from being Born and Blessed of God to Fighting the Good Fight.

The path, and the birds came pecking and eating.

The path was rocky without deep refreshing soil to grow and nourish into.

The Glory of day, turned to be brilliantly about moi..

Others crowded out the Light. Shallow, scorching, withering.

Continue traveling with Love and the Light - a hundred, sixty or thirty times Hope what was sown.



To hear the Word of God in all it's Glory
we must realize

How Very Precious we are to God.

A Loving Father provides lessons on maturity and growth. Assuring us of His Complete Love. He tells us about David doing all he could and finding Mercy. Needed Mercy. Telling us of trial and failure. The Glory of Hope to try again.

Some of the lessons will be for us. Some will be stored to remember in later days.

And in our ability to Learn Father God.s Mercy  and Wisdom , we sort the Living Word of God to apply the right part of the path and the seeds to our day.  Allowing the Word of God to dwell in our Eternal Richly.

Realizing we are on all different steps in the path of life going back and forth. Allowing God's Living Water to rush past to reveal what God is giving us yesterday, today and tomorrow. Letting the Wisdom of God help us learn our own comfort and the comfort we must provide others to make life meaningful and worthy with the Riches of His Goodness.

Our doubts worry us.

Our Father, our Abba,

Each day we seek Your Blessing.

Help us to remember the truthful Word of God. The forward of Life, the fail, the re-group, the Victory of God.

Remembering the Prodigal Father had Joy.

And we place the ones we love in Your Hand and Love.

Jesus is the radiance of the glory of God
and the exact imprint of His nature,
and He upholds the universe by the Word of His Power

We will rest with trust in our prayer requests. God is God.

And for all our prayers, we Rest in Jesus. Amen.

Romans 14:17

For the Kingdom of God is

of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit

Matthew 6:21 
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also

Joshua 1:9
The Lord your God 
is with you 
wherever you go

Abba, Father God,

Where You are, the Great I Am, we will dwell and have our Joy with You Forever in Jesus Christ.

I have seen my loved one smile as Joy unbelievable in the sleep in death

We do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope.

We Believe Jesus died and Lives

And so we Believe God will bring with Jesus.

So many people are told misfortune, life, death and grief end our lives.
No. We have the sweetest of all expectation in the Fulfillment of God's Word.

For the Lord himself will come down from Heaven,
with a loud command,
with the voice of the archangel
and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.

... for this reason I bow my knees before the Father,
from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name.

We pray of the riches of His glory
He may strengthen us with power
through His Spirit in our inner being.

Covering us in Jesus. Our Loved ones. The People He has given us.
Our Nation trusting in Him.
The Nations of the world trusting in Jesus.
And His Children
covering His earth
with their prayers of more
Heaven on earth.

In Jesus we ask. And will have our Joy
and Blessings each day Renew.

Amen.
