John 17 ~ my joy




 

John 1

 
When Jesus had spoken these words, He lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, “Father, the hour has come; glorify your Son that the Son may glorify you, 2 since you have given him authority over all flesh, to give eternal life to all whom you have given him.  

3 And this is eternal life, 
 that they know you the only true God, 
and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. 

 4 I glorified You on earth, having accomplished the work that you gave me to do. 
 And now, Father, glorify me in Your own Presence with the glory that I had with you before the world existed.
 


6 “I have manifested Your name to the people whom you gave me out of the world. Yours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word. 7 Now they know that everything that you have given me is from you. 8 For I have given them the words that you gave me, and they have received them and have come to know in truth that I came from you; and they have believed that you sent me.  

9 I am praying for them. I am not praying for the world but for those whom you have given me, for they are yours. 10 All mine are yours, and yours are mine, and I am glorified in them. 11 And I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, 
 keep them in your name, 
which you have given me, 
that they may be one, even as we are one.


 12 While I was with them, I kept them in your name, which you have given me. I have guarded them, and not one of them has been lost except the son of destruction, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.  

13 But now I am coming to you, and these things I speak in the world, 
that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves.  

14 I have given them Your word, and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. 15 I do not ask that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil one. 16 They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.  


17 Sanctify them in the truth; Your word is truth. 18 As You sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world. 19 And for their sake I consecrate myself, that they also may be sanctified in truth.


20 “I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, 21 that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. 22 The glory that you have given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as we are one,  

23 I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one, 
so that the world may know that You sent me.
And loved them even as You loved me.

24 Father, I desire that they also, whom You have given me, may be with me where I am, to see my glory that You have given me because You loved me before the foundation of the world. 25 O righteous Father, even though the world does not know You, I know You, and these know that You have sent me. 26 I made known to them Your Name, and I will continue to make it known, that the love with which You have loved me may be in them, and I in them.” 




Yesterday's Post did agree Jesus told us "Days will come." Jesus boldly said in this life we have trouble.  The same week with trouble often sees the Light of the world is Jesus. Being shown the Light of Jesus is in mankind. 

Garth Brooks has a song about this:

Jesus Christ is Glorious! Glory!

When we put our mind on Jesus. 

Hebrews 7:24-27 

Because Jesus lives forever, He has a permanent priesthood. 

Therefore
He is able to save completely 

those who come to God through Him, 
because He always lives to intercede for them. 


Such a high priest truly meets our need — One who is holy, blameless, pure, set apart from sinners, exalted above the heavens. 

Unlike the other high priests, He does not need to offer sacrifices day after day, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people. 

He sacrificed for their sins once for all when He offered Himself.


 

 John 8:36 
So if the Son sets you free, 
you will be free indeed.



Job 11:14-16 
If iniquity is in your hand, put it far away, and let not injustice dwell in your tents.
 Surely then you will lift up your face without blemish; you will be secure 
and will not fear. 
You will forget your misery; you will remember it as waters that have passed away.



Isaiah 65:16 
Whoever invokes a blessing in the land will do so by the God of truth, 
and whoever takes an oath in the land will swear by the God of truth. 
For the former troubles will be forgotten and hidden from My sight. 


 Genesis 41:51 
And Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh: 
 For God, said he, hath made me forget all my toil, and all my father's house.



Ecclesiastes 5:20 
 For a man seldom considers the days of his life, 
because God keeps him occupied with the joy of his heart.


Matthew 24:35

Heaven and earth will pass away
but
My Words will not pass away



Abba, Father God,

When we pray, we ask simply
Help us seek You first.
Dwell in me.
Dwell in those John 17 says You have given me.

And we lift up our cares to You
and You care for us.

Help us to want Your Will
and as we seek eagerly to find the Daily Blessings
our Blessings findings will become more diligent and thoughtful.

We please You, Father, immensely
just for trying.

Your Word upholds the Universe
and me.
Your Word upholds those I love, Father.

Let Your Word uphold the Goodness of our Nation pleasing to You.
Let us see the Blessings of the Nation believing in Jesus Christ.

Thank You, Lord Jesus, the rain has been good and provided
and has not been overwhelming.

Thank You for Jesus
and listening to all my prayer requests.
Blessed are those Believing Jesus,
Amen and Amen! Alleluia!

Ezekiel 7:23-27~ know that I am the Lord †


Ezekiel 7:23-27


23 “Forge a chain! 
For the land is full of bloody crimes and the city is full of violence. 24 I will bring the worst of the nations to take possession of their houses. I will put an end to the pride of the strong, and their holy places shall be profaned. 25 When anguish comes, they will seek peace, but there shall be none. 

26 Disaster comes upon disaster; rumor follows rumor. 

They seek a vision from the prophet, while the law perishes from the priest and counsel from the elders. 27 The king mourns, the prince is wrapped in despair, and the hands of the people of the land are paralyzed by terror. According to their way I will do to them, and according to their judgments I will judge them, and they shall know that I am the Lord.”


Now we are multiple weeks past Easter. 
And instead of God of Encouragement, we find God of Noah's Flood.  God of the Fullness of the Earth is His. God of Mass only spoken in a foreign language Mass - Latin, not really hearing or knowing the Word of God, illiteracy, Serfdom, Starvation as the principal cause of death, likely never to travel 3 miles from being born and dying at age late 30s. Paying for indulgences, surely the correct way to say paying someone to forgive your sins. 1/3 of the world's population dying. Then starvation from lack of farm hands and knowledge. Lack of sunlight from volcanic activity. 

Who has this horrible suffering happen to them? Only Sinners? 
The prophets are well known to suffer. Suffer in war, suffer in government dislike, suffer from being disliked from being bossy, pushy or overbearing for putting 'their' opinion first or loudly. Suffer from family.  Prophets suffer from other people judging them. Suffering is what Jesus told us, "Days will come."

We have our faith tampered with when we suffer. And God knows this well. 
We are the Prodigal Son.

We tend to dislike John 14 and 15 telling us if we ask God, He is going to answer our prayers. 
When we know the Children of Exodus didn't have the journey go like John's Chapter 6 and suddenly the boat arrived. Instead, here is "The Moses" and the journey is over 40 years. If God didn't answer Moses, why is God going to answer us?

Jesus asked Father God to take the cup from Him. 

Jesus is the Trinity of God and God died on the Cross fully in full understanding of Jesus.
God the Almighty Trinity knew all of Jesus on Good Friday.

God is God of Encouragement. 
And God is Father to decide what His Children will receive. Like Jonah.
Like Peter. Like John. God decides and Jesus tells us, "Days will come." God the Father is Judge. Jesus acknowledges God is Judge as Jesus in the same Chapter and Verses explain to us to Pray in Hope.


Now, Surely, we can't link this to Jesus the exact nature of God. 
We can always find Scripture explains Scripture. We can easily find something linking the Gospels to God.

Jesus encounters the Sinful. Those outside. 







Ezekiel 7:23-27

23 “Forge a chain! For the land is full of bloody crimes and the city is full of violence. 

Tyre is known during the Life of Jesus for prosperity. Creating Purple Clothing. 
Wonderful fleet of ships, a leader of worldwide shipping. Tyre was allowed to keep much of its independence as a "civitas foederata". A decree found at Tyre certainly implies Marcus Aemilius Scaurus – Pompey's deputy in Syria – played the key role in granting Tyre the privileged status of remaining a free city. 

Scaurus did apparently so "with a certain payment". Tyre continued to maintain commercial importance. Apart from purple dye, the production of linen, shipping, became main industries as well as garum fish sauce, "a caviar" in our days. Roman remnants in the basement of the Maronite cathedral, with geographical location made Tyre "The Natural" port of Damascus, to Linking through a Roman road during the Roman period, and displays a similar meeting point of the Silk Road shipping. 

During this time, Canaanite was a collection of small tribes in the areas of Ammonites, Moabites, Israelites and Phoenicians were all considered to be The Merchant Princes. Roman Empire suited them exactly perfectly. This Canaanite woman of the Gospels knows Tyre well.

Israel had not had any of the Joy of Tyre, their former ally. Israel had been weakened, Holy Places profaned. Merely a suburb of Syria, Israel had not seen the Roman Occupation as Peace.

24 I will bring the worst of the nations to take possession of their houses. I will put an end to the pride of the strong, and their holy places shall be profaned. 25 When anguish comes, they will seek peace, but there shall be none. 

The woman of Tyre in Matthew 15 is living with the results of corruption and wickedness and her child is suffering from spiritual warfare. She has the wisdom to understand where her sorrow emanates.  Her child is in the grip of evil. She does not say if the child jumps into fire, lives in cemeteries, but her home is held in sorrow for a child having something not noble, pure or worthy to be studied. The worst of anguish. No hope. No future.

We are not specifically told if the child is an adult or a child. We only know a woman has offspring and the Gospel says child. 

Would our Jesus act as if He is God of Noah and the Flood?

26 Disaster comes upon disaster; rumor follows rumor. 

They seek a vision from the prophet, while the law perishes from the priest and counsel from the elders. 27 The king mourns, the prince is wrapped in despair, and the hands of the people of the land are paralyzed by terror. According to their way I will do to them, and according to their judgments I will judge them, and they shall know that I am the Lord.”

Would our Jesus act as if He is God of Noah and the Flood?

The Canaanite woman knows enough to seek Jesus Christ and honestly tell Him of her troubles.  She is from one of the tribal areas Ruth came from, but her part of the world suggests all rules change to make sure the trade and prosperity will flow. She is the overlord to the Jews. This woman is not going to stand in line with Jews. Jews will ask favors from her people. They are higher ups.

Matthew 15
21 And Jesus went away from there and withdrew to the district of Tyre and Sidon. 22 And behold, a Canaanite woman from that region came out and was crying, “Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David; my daughter is severely oppressed by a demon.”

23 But He did not answer her a word. 

And His disciples came and begged Him, saying, “Send her away, for she is crying out after us.”

 24 He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” 

25 But she came and knelt before him, saying, “Lord, help me.” 

26 And he answered, “It is not right to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs.” 

27 She said, “Yes, Lord, yet even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters' table.” 

28 Then Jesus answered her, “O woman, great is your faith! Be it done for you as you desire.” 
And her daughter was healed instantly.
  
Yet consider Matthew 20:
25 But Jesus called them to him and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. 26 It shall not be so among you. But whoever would be great among you must be your servant,  27and whoever would be first among you must be your slave,  28 even as the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

We know Jesus put aside being God and took up the mantle of servant. Here Jesus does not take up the mantle of Servant and is God's Own Holy and Righteous Son. Doing what God Judges to Be Holy.

God is not contrary. God is Steadfast. We have to seek, find, knock and ask to see the Love God has for us. To save us from our personal excesses. When God says before the Prayers of John 14 and John 15 ask and receive. God is telling us to Love God and to trust Him and His Will. God is telling us there are 1 talent faiths, fearing God is indifferent or cold. And there are 10 talent faiths allowing us to move forward and trust and Love God.


Jesus fills every dot and iota of the Word of God. 
We cannot fulfill God's Word, Jesus alone is Sufficient and like Ezekiel 7, we know God's Judgment is Correct, Holy and Righteous. If Jesus was actually comfort to the overcome John, His Beloved Disciple, in Revelation 1, God is Good. If Jesus pushed aside John's fright and did as God saw fit, God is Good.

But before we Judge God as Harsh, remember again the Parable of the Ten Talents. 
When we Judge God, our judgments fall on us. Jesus has said we can pray to His Almighty Father impudently. Yet when finding impudence, God is certainly well and able to pronounce Proper Judgment. Holy. Righteous. Jesus leads us in the Lord's Prayer and He tells us, "Give us the Day!" Find Joy. Jesus also says to His Beloved Father, "Lead us not into Temptation." We do well to realize the servants describing the talents and God, to God, actually describe themselves.



Romans 10:9-10 
Because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved.

 

 John 8:12
 Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”





Ruth 2:12 
May the LORD repay your work, and may you receive a rich reward from the LORD, 
the God of Israel, 
under whose wings you have taken refuge."

 Psalm 17:8 
Keep me as the apple of Your eye; hide me in the shadow of Your wings 

 Psalm 91:4 
He will cover you with His pinions, And under His wings you may take refuge; 
His faithfulness is a shield and wall. 

 Matthew 23:7 
“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it! How often would I have gathered your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you were not willing!"

Isaiah 49:6
 He says:
“It is too light a thing that you should be my servant
to raise up the tribes of Jacob
and to bring back the preserved of Israel;
 I will make you as a light for the nations,
that my salvation may reach to the end of the earth.”

Luke 11:5-13 5 
And he said to them, “Which of you who has a friend will go to him at midnight and say to him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves, 6 for a friend of mine has arrived on a journey, and I have nothing to set before him’; 7 and He will answer from within, ‘Do not bother me; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I cannot get up and give you anything’? 

8 I tell you, though He will not get up and give him anything because He is his friend, yet because of his impudence he will rise and give him whatever he needs.

 9 And I tell you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 10 For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.




Isaiah 12:1,2 
And in that day thou shalt say, O LORD, I will praise thee: 
though thou wast angry with me, thine anger is turned away, and thou comfortedst me



Abba, Father God,

Help us to seek You First.

Just our sincere efforts to do what is Pleasing to Your Will
in give us this day
Pleases You.
And we have Joy.

In Jesus, we are satisfied and Joyful in Your Strength.
Bless those we Love to live, "Give us this day!"
And in Your Joy and Strength 
know Your Love and Gracious Mercy.

Jesus gave His Father and our Father 
a new Heaven and a new earth.

In Jesus Christ
 we are bold to pray impudently as the friend, we implore with Hope:
Yes, we do.

Jesus Christ, Wonderful Jesus, Savior
Entreat me not to leave Thee

 We will never want to return from following after Thee: 
You have the Eternal Words of Life.

Like Thomas said when Thomas saw Lazarus Live:
For whither Thou goest, I will go

And when Jesus gave us John 14,
We know Jesus prepares a place for us.
My father, Daddy, dreamed 80 times
 of coming to guide my mother to Heaven.
My Daddy recognized in God's Amazing House 
- he said he spent more than he knew days looking for the front door, 
he recognized our home as within God's Huge Home.
God does indeed make a Place for us. Home.

 And where Thou lodgest, I will Lodge.

We say to Jesus with all our hearts, dwell in us. Live in us, Jesus.
Thy people shall be my people, and Thy Son Jesus, my God

Jesus saves the world.
Jesus saves me.
Jesus saves you and those you love.
Jesus saves the world.
 
Where Thou LIVE, will I LIVE, 
and there will I be Eternally

Our Jesus LORD do so to me, and more also,
 if ought but death depart
 from me in Thee and mine.

For this reason 
I bow my knees before the Father, 
from whom every family in heaven and on earth
 is named, 

According to the riches of His glory He may grant you 
to be strengthened with power through His Spirit 
in your inner being

So that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith
—that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 
may have strength to comprehend 
with all the saints 
what is the breadth and length and height and depth

And to Know
the Love of Christ 
surpassing knowledge

May you be filled with
 all 
the Fullness of God.

Now to Jesus Christ, Wonderful, Savior, God's Only Son
 He is able to do far more abundantly
 than all that we ask or imagine,

According to the Power at work within us, 
To Jesus Christ be glory in the Church 


for His Glory to Dwell in us
His Living Word Jesus Christ, God Manifest



His Love
His Joy
His Mercy
His Protection
in each soul
in each family
in each friend
Elliott to be healed
in each Church
in each City
in the Nations of His Good Creation, the earth.

We ask Your Mercy on the places with too much rain
,like Texas,
and for Mercy.

Thank You Tuesday went well.
Thank You, Father,
Thank You Jesus




And in Christ Jesus 
Throughout all generations, 
forever and ever
Amen.

Psalm 97 ~ Give Thanks



Psalm 97


The Lord reigns, 
Let the earth rejoice;
    let the many coastlands be glad!

2 Clouds and thick darkness are all around Him;
    righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.
3 Fire goes before Him
    and burns up His adversaries all around.




This Gif lightning started off as pink, but went white. 
We had pink, only, this afternoon!

4 His lightnings light up the world;
    the earth sees and trembles.
5 The mountains melt like wax before the Lord,
    before the Lord of all the earth.

6 The heavens proclaim his righteousness,
    and all the peoples see his glory.
7 All worshipers of images are put to shame,
    who make their boast in worthless idols;
    worship him, all you gods!

8 Zion hears and is glad,
    and the daughters of Judah rejoice,
    because of your judgments, O Lord.
9 For you, O Lord, are most high over all the earth;
    you are exalted far above all gods.

10 O you who love the Lord, hate evil!
    He preserves the lives of his saints;
  He delivers them from the hand of the wicked.

Light is sown for the righteous,
    and joy for the upright in heart.
12 Rejoice in the Lord, O you righteous,
    and give thanks to His holy name!


Smile and Wave at Sam Houston's Statue
Sam was for peace.
All the time.
Houston is named for Sam!


Our "There and Back Again" began at 4:30 this morning going to Dallas attending to my mother's house repairs. We saw the sunrise. And thrilled finding the rain was holding off. Blue skies instead. Spring in Texas. Rain has been plentiful in May. Beautiful. A great early, early morning Highway ride.

The Storm was just hitting downtown Dallas and the glass and interior lights were glowing.


Then the contractor decided not to complete the work. 
And the other contractor was right on time and spit spot. Trip was pointless? God is in charge! We had breakfast in a favorite Dallas spot. Saw family. Debated by text. Saw my mom. Wept some. Headed for home. Nothing better than Home after that.




Coming home we saw blue skies, then some heavy fog turning rolling Central Texas hills into flatland with clouds making the vistas look like North Carolina's smokey mountains.








 Real beauty. Privileged. God having some experimentation with scenery!


Turning into our street the vast, gigantic dark, dark grey almost black skies, gave way to sunlight in the heavy rain. Beautiful to see - all- of the day.




What is the rarest color of lightning?
Yellow lightning is uncommon; however, they tend to be cooler than the blue, lilac and white. They're caused to due to a high concentration of dust in the air. And is an indication of a dry thunderstorm with low-precipitation. White lightning is the hottest, and literally, all bolts radiate white color.

When lightning strikes, different particles will scatter this light and cause the strike to appear as blue, pink, purple, white or even a brown-ish tint.



Edward and I arrived home, we sat watching part of the storm. Drank hot tea. Every lightning bolt was pink as a rose.  The room filled with pink rose colored lightning.  I moved to sit away from the window and watch face on from the couch!



Then the lightning stopped, suddenly the sky was green. 


A green sky indicates a severe storm producing tornadoes and damaging hail, a green sky does not guarantee severe weather. 


Then the green departed and our sky had some Champagne Golden. And this is a thunderstorm filtering through the clouds of sunset. Marvelous.

And it's time to pray for Texas again. 
We have Flash Flood Warnings near Houston, while Dallas has the Trinity River in some flood stages trying out the Levies.  The Dallas Rivers flow south where we are having big rain.


Abba, our Father,

We ask for Your Blessings.

Thank You for the gift of Psalm 97 today. To read of Your Glory .
 To be swept in Your Glory. Thank You.

Living water of Jesus flow unendingly as Love. 
To be encouraged and helped as we do Your Willing Plan You do have for us all.

To know as Jesus spoke of Living Water and gave You a new Heaven and a new earth, we find Your Throne in Your Kingdom by walking beside the shining water leading to Your Home.

Flowing, filling, seeping in all areas of our heart and with all our soul and with all our mind, for ourselves and the ones we Love. Filling us.


As we are on Your Path, we ask Your help to stay on the Path. 
We ask Your Love to know the daily steps. 
And looking back on our lives, knowing we present our Soul to You.

The Blessings of Jesus healing us and holding us. His Good will and Healing be present in peace
for His Mercy. Love and Answered prayer for Elliott, Dee and our prayers for Elliott. 


Blessings to know Jesus and Your Word. To be comforted by You. 

For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

Blessed in Jesus and His Name flow over our Nation and to the believers, today and tomorrow of the world.  To all of His Children all over His Good Creation.

Please give Texas Mercy to not have floods anymore!!!

Amen in Jesus.
Amen and Ament

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. <><
