John 14 ~ Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." †

John 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.




We wonder about the way, the truth and the Life. And what we need to Live is hope, faith and love.

Let's find this — the place we are living. Shown. God says, “Fear Not”  we are misplaced or forgotten; instead in realization of His Plan. Living God. Living Word. Placed in God's Plan.

Peace.  Believe in the Works of God.

Where is the Good News this past week?  

Goodness
We have new news of the Vote. And we want to live in the Truth. 
We have the knowledge — all of us — where truth is pointing in the News. Social Media. And we will go where we find Truth.   Deliberately we will find the Truth. And in this determination we see change. Truth is a Force of Nature.

We find people vote less along agenda and more seeking Goodness. Lines have changed as the people seek Goodness. Democrats and Republicans are blending to the middle. Democrats I know are proclaiming themselves to be Moderate on Social Media. I haven't seen Moderation been discussed in a long time. I see this on the Republican side too.

Our Churches remind us all things work together for Good for the majority of Americans praying. We want the Purposes of God.

Senator Mitch McConnell is urging the Process of Law. The basis of the Republic and giving his years of experience, saying this is part of our American Experience.  Senator Joe Manchin, WV, is asking us to find the middle and not let fringes run us awry. 

Exploring the Process of the Votes is the right of Donald Trump to explore his Civil Rights. And this Vote is completely believed to be solid vote counting.




Truth and Peace
I'd bet there will be New Social Media and the mix of left and right will be — innovation. Why, easily understood the Media isn't filling in the gaps to represent our real views. The Vote shows we are crossing lines. We are growing comfortable not being represented and don't show viewer loyalty.  We will be able to sort out the words we don't want to hear in Fellowship. We will remove what we don't want to see.  We will be able to say remove repeat phrases. Controversy.  “Violent Wrestling.” “Fearmongering.”  “Fake Shame.” Or any phrase we chose.  Exactly as we change Channels. Fabulous. No more censor.



Taking Fear and Dwell on God.
What we can't do, we believe firmly God is interested in. 
Our powerlessness is transitory. Because we take our cares to Him Who Cares for us. We look with Love to the Word of God as unchanging. One Call. One Faith. One God and Father of All. And in All. Jesus Christ, our way, truth and Life to Salvation.


Go Now in Peace, Never be Afraid.
We have been afraid of Civil Unrest. With Covid. With Censoring. Calm the Media. Finding what Unites us.


Finding Common Ground.
We aren't going to be our best fake selves. We are going to be Merciful to each other and the process we are engaging in. Better to know, act accordingly. We will allow the process. Tolerant Love.


† We are seeing all the work from Unite and make Liberty and Equality. People are not seeking ugly revenge. In fact, One Major News Network fired a major newscaster for asking for retribution. We are finding Judges are not changing the voting laws recently. We will go with  Legislative Civil Rights.  We are seeing Peaceful Assembly. We see the Youth interested in our process of Government. Finding Unity. We are seeing the Media let go of some non-controversies with apology.  Andrew Yang if giving us Common Ground.  We will see Gridlock making us safer.



Staying on the Path
Allowing Good Faith. Finding Data and Evidence. Solving and making steadfast. Reliability. Recount and meet the Legal Challenges.  The Electoral Process made more perfect. Following the Precedent of Florida 2000 A.D. Creating True Transparency. This is the Process of Government, naturally.  All. We are owed this Governmental Process, All, to each one of us, to see the Challenges of one vote to one man.


Good Faith Evidence. 
Not to be puppeted.  To have Good Health. Reliable. Data with honesty. To ignore rudeness.  Glory in righteousness and utter lack of uncertainty. 



God is in the Changes.
Recognizing the Help of God this year. Recalling all this year. This horrible year people have said has cleansed their priorities and their hope and want for each other. The tremendous work this year has been. Gracious. Grateful.



Patient.
To see what our Prayers bring forth the Grace and Willingness of Father God. To find what is Beautiful. To find Harmony.  Seek the Goodness of God.  Earlier on Good Friday, we read and saw an average Sunday Sermon from The United Woodlands Methodist Church  and the topic was Good Friday. It was poignant to see what we missed. To see. Having the Realization. And today, seeing Church on Television YouTube, to see the Valiant. Today. To find the Hope of God's Goodness. To understand again the Graciousness of the Good Fight. The Glory of seek and find the Higher Purposes of God. Lifted from the everyday, to find the Eternal.

Marvelous to find something in this very year to Rejoice with. 

 God Gives Us.

2 Corinthians 4:18


We look not to the things that are seen, 
but to the things that are unseen.
For the things that are seen are transient,
 but the things that are unseen 
are eternal.





Isaiah 43:1-7

But now thus says the Lord,
he who created you, O Jacob,
he who formed you, O Israel:
“Fear not, for I have redeemed you;
I have called you by name, you are mine.

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;
and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you;
when you walk through fire you shall not be burned,
and the flame shall not consume you.

For I am the Lord your God,
the Holy One of Israel, your Savior.
I give Egypt as your ransom,
Cush and Seba in exchange for you.


Because you are precious in my eyes,
and honored, and I love you,
I give men in return for you,
peoples in exchange for your life.

Fear not, for I am with you;
I will bring your offspring from the east,
and from the west I will gather you.

I will say to the north, Give up,
and to the south, Do not withhold;
bring my sons from afar
and my daughters from the end of the earth



Please continue to bless us.
Amen in Jesus.

Luke 14:1-11 ~ He took him and healed him and sent him on his way.

Luke 14:1-11


One Sabbath, when he went to dine at the house of a ruler of the Pharisees, they were watching him carefully. 

2 And behold, there was a man before him who had dropsy. 3 And Jesus responded to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath, or not?” 4 But they remained silent. 

Then he took him and healed him and sent him on his way. 

5 And he said to them, “Which of you, having a son or an ox that has fallen into a well on a Sabbath day, will not immediately pull him out?” 

6 And they could not reply to these things.


7 Now he told a parable to those who were invited, when he noticed how they chose the places of honor, saying to them, 8 “When you are invited by someone to a wedding feast, do not sit down in a place of honor, lest someone more distinguished than you be invited by him,  and he who invited you both will come and say to you, ‘Give your place to this person,’ and then you will begin with shame to take the lowest place. 

10 But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when your host comes he may say to you, ‘Friend, move up higher.’ Then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at table with you. 

11 For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”



Jesus never lived by the motto:

Jesus is the exact nature of God.

Hebrews 1:3 
The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of His being, sustaining all things by His Powerful Word. 


Consider Jesus' Goal, to heal, to promote the man's well-being. 
Jesus wants the man to be self-sufficient. Jesus finds Life to be Joy. The work of mankind is to Believe the One He has sent. To work the garden, the good creation of God. Jesus doesn't need the man to depend on Jesus because Jesus knows the path of Jesus. To Live and Rise to God. This man will be sustained in his faith outlook.

To bring the man home in the Prodigal Son fashion, Jesus was explaining why He was healing. Jesus even explains when He wants to heal — Constantly.  Jesus is working on healing the silent people. God says truth doesn't always bring happiness. Truth will, in progress, set us free.

Jesus says as we heal those around us — do so immediately. 
Covid is described as the human body recognizes the illness as a Common Cold. The biggest common cold the human body recognizes and the immunity system goes into overload.  Jesus is the opposite. Jesus isn't jumping on a stage. He doesn't set huge fires as a backdrop. 

To Heal, Jesus isn't Lording over us.  Jesus uses transparency and this puts hackles up.

Jesus overcomes the indignity of His Healing is approaching. Basically, being God of Love. They don't want Jesus above them. People are not comfortable being 'helped' or 'fixed.' He isn't bending down and cooing. Jesus has earned the Right and doesn't take this up. Jesus is even moderate in His teaching and preaching style. Jesus doesn't go out of His Way to suggest to the party, the more pious attitude of a Sunday work ethic is not to have the Party.


We say we want to heal the Nation. We ask for Unity.

Jesus is seeking Common Ground with all people. 
And as the exact Nature of God, Jesus accepts not all will fall in love with Jesus. And in fact, Jesus waits upon His own Brothers and Mother. Believing in faith, Love will arrive. Jesus is content with the Person His Father has Created. Saying in His Life, Give Us This Day.

In this Goal Jesus has to heal, later in the day, Jesus will have the Great Crowd. 
Jesus tells them the most important portion of Life, to know to Love God First. To Love God the Joy of the Lord is our Strength. Jesus has been disappointed in His, “Lunch with friends.” And explains how we get past disappointments in life.


Luke 14 Continues Teaching us about Jesus Finding Joy in Setbacks.

25 Now great crowds accompanied him, and he turned and said to them, 26 “If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple. 

27 Whoever does not bear his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple. 28 For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, whether he has enough to complete it? 29 Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him, 30 saying, ‘This man began to build and was not able to finish.’ 

31 Or what king, going out to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and deliberate whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? 32 And if not, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends a delegation and asks for terms of peace. 

33 So therefore, any one of you who does not renounce all that he has cannot be my disciple.


Jesus has fully explained His Day.  Leading by example.

Sunday is a day for Family, instead Jesus is not entirely at peace with His Mother and Brothers. (Although Nazareth has two sets of Verses to historically say the family is a good and cohesive, loving family. ) Not because Jesus isn't longing for the Peace, Jesus is looking for the Good Fight to bring Life forever. Jesus isn't seeking the 'nicey' Peace. The great crowd knew where to find Jesus, so He is explaining His Choice on this day.

Jesus is cutting down class and monetary barriers. Jesus is Living Water, flowing to all who want to Drink From His Living Water.

Jesus is saying He is here for the Duration God Gives Jesus. Jesus is saying the Prodigal Son's Father has counted the cost. Jesus is also saying as He is teaching, recognizing He is the Son of Almighty God, Jesus is bringing forth the Peace.

Hebrews 1
His being, sustaining all things by His Powerful Word. 

And

Matthew 5:9 
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.

In Fact, Jesus is so capable Luke 14 fully explains Matthew 5:18

Matthew 5:18 
For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, 
not an iota, not a dot, 
will pass from the Law until all is accomplished.

Jesus Christ is completely amazing and fully astonishing.



Our God is fully Capable.

John 1:1 
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

1 Timothy 5:21 
In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus and of the elect angels I charge you to keep these rules without prejudging, doing nothing from partiality.

Colossians 1:16
For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, 
whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities
—all things were created through Him 
and for Him.

Matthew 28:18 
And Jesus came and said to them, 
“All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.”

John 3:16
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, 
that whoever believes in Him
should not perish but have eternal life.”





Abba, Father

Our Abba, we pray in unison with Jesus — to increase the Holy Spirit.

Your throne, O God, is forever and ever,
the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of Your Kingdom.

Jesus, Son of God — Bless, Heal, Sustain, Comfort, Guide
Our 50 United States of America in Joy, Faith and Love.

President Donald Trump, and his family, 
Vice President Pence and his family,
The White House Staff,
especially those in need of healing today
Mark Meadows

 God Bless All!


Safety and wisdom for:
Governor Abbott
and all 50 United States Governors and our Legislatures

Praying for Elliott, Harby and their family 
For complete blessing of healing.
I believe Jesus is healing Elliott.


We long for Your Love and help, Father God, to have Your Kingdom, 
Power and Glory upon Your Throne. 

The Fringe of Your Robe placed upon all of Your Good Creation. 
The Balm of Gilead — Jesus — rubbed just where we hurt.

Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord of Hosts. 
We pray more of Your Good Will filling the whole earth with Your Glory.

We will
 Remember our answered Prayers. 
And live this Day. Looking in expectation! 

You will strengthen us, 
And the ones we Love. 
We will Seek You first and find Your Kingdom.

Covering us with the Name and Power of Jesus,
Brave people. Holding up Life for one another.

We are People with the Help of Jesus,
we can make
Redemption
Strength.
Praying the Victory!
And Virus end!
Knowing God is going to bring us Together
with ninnies and damn twits to love
us past the storms into
His Plan of desired Haven 
Psalm 107.

Abba, Delta is the mathematical symbol of Change,
we pray to end all storms for us. Amen.

Fruitful Justice for ALL.
For our families and children yet unborn


The Freedom in Jesus we call
Liberty and Justice for All!

We ask Jesus to dwell in us and those we Love always,
and helping us find God First, as Jesus does. 

Moses asked God for Happiness,
we ask You, Father God, for this as well. Amen.

Amen and Alleluia. Amen.

Galatians 2 ~ Entrusted

Galatians 2

Then after fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus along with me. 2 I went up because of a revelation and set before them (though privately before those who seemed influential) the gospel that I proclaim among the Gentiles, in order to make sure I was not running or had not run in vain. 3 But even Titus, who was with me, was not forced to be circumcised, though he was a Greek. 4 Yet because of false brothers secretly brought in—who slipped in to spy out our freedom that we have in Christ Jesus, so that they might bring us into slavery— 5 to them we did not yield in submission even for a moment, so that the truth of the gospel might be preserved for you. 6 And from those who seemed to be influential (what they were makes no difference to me; God shows no partiality)—those, I say, who seemed influential added nothing to me. 

7 On the contrary, when they saw that I had been entrusted with the gospel to the uncircumcised, just as Peter had been entrusted with the gospel to the circumcised 8 (for he who worked through Peter for his apostolic ministry to the circumcised worked also through me for mine to the Gentiles), 9 and when James and Cephas and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given to me, they gave the right hand of fellowship to Barnabas and me, that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised. 10 Only, they asked us to remember the poor, the very thing I was eager to do.

11 But when Cephas came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he stood condemned. 12 For before certain men came from James, he was eating with the Gentiles; but when they came he drew back and separated himself, fearing the circumcision party. 13 And the rest of the Jews acted hypocritically along with him, so that even Barnabas was led astray by their hypocrisy. 14 But when I saw that their conduct was not in step with the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas before them all, “If you, though a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you force the Gentiles to live like Jews?”

15 We ourselves are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners; 16 yet we know that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, so we also have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.


17 But if, in our endeavor to be justified in Christ, we too were found to be sinners, is Christ then a servant of sin? Certainly not! 18 For if I rebuild what I tore down, I prove myself to be a transgressor. 19 For through the law I died to the law, so that I might live to God. 20 I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. 

21 I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness were through the law, then Christ died for no purpose.



Let's look: Galatians 2 Putting Scripture in Our Current Events

How quickly will we solve this dilemma? 
Will it be solved secretly, with stand 50 feet back? Will we need spies? Should we pretend to yield to law. Pretend to say Unity. Pretend to be in an obscure process. Is this merely a war for influence? 

The Government functions to be for the People. 
The Governing Laws were written for the People.  Do the pillars of the Government on both sides press for the Federal Elections Law.

Why solve this expeditiously? 
Small businesses. Jobs.
Getting the Laws in Practice good people spent their lives putting in place. Show us Precedent. Florida 2000 A.D. style, we can all fully see the ballots and lists filled correctly. We do not build security today or tomorrow by secrecy or transparency of glass walls and 30 or more feet away.  

The Hand of Fellowship is the Law. 

Jesus Christ wouldn't say show me your proof to open up the process.

The Government is entrusted to be Gracious to the existing Law. When the Law is not followed, confront this — very — directly. Do not be led astray to accept a transfer not following the Law.


How Many Generations to find Voting Security?
The Laws didn't arrive with great ease or flippantly.


The Lodge Bill of 1890, also referred to as the Federal Elections Bill 
became
The Voting Rights Act of 1965 outlawed the discriminatory voting practices adopted in many southern states after the Civil War, including literacy tests. It stated that “jurisdictions covered by these special provisions could not implement any change affecting voting until the Attorney General or the United States District Court for the District of Columbia determined that the change did not have a discriminatory purpose and would not have a discriminatory effect. In addition, the Attorney General could designate a county covered by these special provisions for the appointment of a federal examiner to review the qualifications of persons who wanted to register to vote. Further, in those counties where a federal examiner was serving, the Attorney General could request that federal observers monitor activities within the county's polling place.

Using the Law to hinder going forward, would very incorrect for a pale and weak reason.

Human beings will press for peace and ask to ignore the desire to see the Law properly filled. Desire to give up for the sake of peace or tradition. 


The Vote was hard fought for by our generations.

The true peace is not achieved, if 70 million voters believe the Video Former Vice-President Biden put out and found on President Trump's website stated Biden saying Biden has placed the largest voter fraud together in history to win the race. To be forced for convenience to accept a fraudulent vote tells us the Laws don't Govern anymore. This nation enjoys politics and disagreements in a jaw dropping extend. When we follow the history of the United States, we find over 350 skirmishes.  And all over our opinions, Facebook posts, twitters count for exactly — not a jot or an iota — we simply exist as a Nation for One Man, One Vote. The Vote was hard fought for by our generations.


Your Vote is your only true voice in any government process we debate endlessly.  
Do not have your vote taken away, cancelled, by sham voters, dead, twice, triple, 50 times voters, fake move ins, dogs, lie votes. Half of the USA will believe the Vote is Fraudulent. We tear at our Nation to accept less than the Process mankind spent their lives to establish. We Unite behind the Process we call Law. We Unite as States for the Common Good.

Show us. Show us, Government. Elected Officials. Show us your true patriotic Loyalty. Why should we believe you won't nullify any law because of convenience? Stand, Hold the Line for the Law. Show us the adherence to the Established Laws of the United States of America. Show us you follow the Laws with amazing speed and precision. Show us your Patriotism.  Show us The Word of God. Show us Galatians 2.

The argument you are wrong, sinning, mean, we can't assist you. And thinking, you are just a mean group of people. That finger will point 'endlessly', 'perpetually'. I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness were through the law, then Christ died for no purpose. 

Jesus Christ died to save sinners. 

Blessed are the Merciful, they will find Mercy. We are not invited to sit down on the Seat of Judgement. To make Gestapo judgements. We survive to do Mercy with Justice. And walk with the humility of all sinners needing the Gracious Mercy of God Himself. 








Voting Rights are Civil Rights

Psalms 18:28

You, LORD, keep my lamp burning;
my God 
turns my darkness 
into light.

Two-Thirds of Americans Think Coronavirus Self-Isolation 
Made Them a Better Person, Study Finds
Some respondents gained the time and flexibility to delve into new hobbies and discover new passions, the study found.

The survey of 2,000 Americans over the age of 21, commissioned by Coravin and conducted by OnePoll, looked at the positives changes to come from the coronavirus pandemic — and the ways in which respondents are re-prioritizing what they value.


Abba, Father God,

Father God, put off our former way of life, our old self, 
corrupted by its deceitful desires.

Renew the Spirit of our minds; put on the new self, created to be like God 
in true righteousness and holiness.

The depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! 
To You be glory forever. Amen.

May the God of endurance and encouragement 
grant all to live in such harmony with one another, 
in accord with Christ Jesus, 
together all may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.




We Know Jesus is alive.

We give Thanks millions looked out for one another. 

Mercy prevails for Israel again.
Your Word upholds the Heavens brings Life and Love. 

 Jesus Christ 
Live in our souls, our hearts, our words and ways. 
Please, more Heaven on earth. More Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
We pray to put God first and Seeking Heaven on earth.

Goodness and Love You are, Father God, spread this to Love ones! 
For our Nation trusting in You. 

Thank You, You are the Key, Jesus Christ.

Jesus Christ has made us His. 
Alleluia. Amen.

Mark 1:1-11 ~ the Good News about Jesus the Messiah

 

All of us want Father God to run to them.



Mark 1:1-11 


1 The beginning of the Good News about Jesus the Messiah, 
The Son of God.

2 As it is written in Isaiah the prophet: 
“I will send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way” 

— 3 “A voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him.’ ”

4 And so John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. 5 The whole Judean countryside and all the people of Jerusalem went out to him. Confessing their sins, they were baptized by him in the Jordan River. 6 John wore clothing made of camel’s hair, with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey. 7 And this was his message: 
“After me comes the one more powerful than I, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie. 8 I baptize you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”

9 At that time Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan. 10 Just as Jesus was coming up out of the water, He saw Heaven being torn open and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.

11 And a voice came from heaven: “You are my Son, whom I love; with You, I am well pleased.”




Prepared to hear from God the Father. Jesus prepares us and lives revealing the Exact Nature of God. 

The Children of Israel had never heard a plane, a rock concert or a rocket — and yet — they begged Almighty God not to speak. The Loudest Noise they'd ever heard, and they thought they'd die.

Father God wanted to prepare His Beloved Children He would be Speaking.

And He planned very carefully for millenniums. He spoke, “Let there be Light.” God of God. Light of Light. Jesus Lord God.

And again, 700 years before He spoke again. Isaiah was blessed to visit and speak with God.

John came closer — preparing the way.

Jesus Christ gave obedience. The Words we long to hear from Father God.

“You are my Son, whom I love; with you, I am well pleased.”




We read the Bible, Pray, speaking with Father God. We prepare. We believe. We are blessed. We will be blessed when we want to please Father God. 



God prepares us.


Abba, Father God

We ask You to prepare us today and each day to walk Your Plan and Path. 

The incumbent Republicans in the House and Senate did not lose, not even one. 
The newbies are women, minorities and the Military. The Voices of One man and one Vote.
The People have been Heard.

We need our Voting to follow this:

The Lodge Bill of 1890, also referred to as the Federal Elections Bill or by critics as the Lodge Force Bill, was a proposed bill to ensure the security of elections for U.S. Representatives.

It was drafted and proposed by Representative Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts, Senator George Hoar of Massachusetts and with President Benjamin Harrison's endorsement, all Republicans. The bill provided for the federal regulation of elections to the United States House of Representatives, where had heretofore been regulated by state governments. In particular, the bill would have permitted federal circuit courts (upon a petition by 500 citizens from any district) 

To appoint federal supervisors for congressional elections. 

Supervisors would have the power to attend elections, inspect registration lists, verify doubtful voter information, administer oaths to challenged voters, stop illegal aliens from voting, and certify the vote count. Perhaps most controversially, the supervisor would have the power to request Deputy United States Marshals to secure elections by force if deemed necessary.

We ask You protect us. Cherish us. Challenge us. Keep us where You would bless us. Please guide us and lead us as our Father. 

Let us be bringers of Your Goodness.
 Dwell in us. Help us in the Framework You've Given. And Bless those we Love. 
Help us to be always pleasing to You.

Bless our Nation with Your Mercy and help. 
Bless our communities, Churches, work places and culture. 
Blessing the earth in Jesus.

Jesus help, Covered in God's Love,
To have our Elections Secure for our Children.
President Donald Trump and his family
Vice President Mike Pence
The Presidential Team
Dr. Anthony Fauci, Dr. Robert Redfield, Dr. Deborah Birx
And their families.

Governor Abbott and all 50 Governors and Legislatures.
Today, and always, Senator Tim Scott,
Our Nation to heal and be united.
The end of trouble surrounding this Virus.
The Research done on the Vaccine.

For Elliott with God's continued Healing, to avoid this virus.
Their loving family praying and helping him and Harby.
We believe Elliott will be healed.

Father, the Truth, the Way and the Life for our Nation we pray.

We continue to pray for the Safety of All the Nation.

Thank You for cooler temperatures on the Gulf of Mexico for us all.
We pray Eta will just not be a Hurricane of damage.

And end these storms, in Your Mercy, let us be pleasing to You. 

Please let our Nation not continue in Integrity for All.
The Mercy of Jesus Christ Upon Us. Amen!

About scripture-for-today.blogspot.com/

We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He has saved all who call upon His name and rely on Him for His Grace. The Scriptures are living & active and are for understanding the Lord Almighty. Biblical readings are chosen from the Ecumenical Christian Church and the Nicene Council, 325 A.D., approved Apocrypha. People remember not just from reading, but by sight and orally- an image has been added as well as audio readings. God tends to link the passages together with fascinates - this blogger, Anne-Laurel Gardere

A simple blog, scripture-for-today.blogspot

This blog is pretty simple, but for a reason. This blog isn't about agenda or me, it is for the joy and love to found by reading the Scriptures. Ultimately, it is you and the Lord.

The Scriptures are Father God's letter to you. He wanted you to know more, to know He loves you.

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. <><
