Luke 7:11-17 ~ God has come to help His people

 


Luke 7:11-17


Soon afterward, Jesus went to a town called Nain.

And his disciples and a large crowd went along with him. As he approached the town gate, a dead person was being carried out—the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the town was with her.

When the Lord saw her, his heart went out to her and he said, “Don’t cry.”


Then he went up and touched the bier they were carrying him on, and the bearers stood still.

 He said, “Young man, I say to you, get up!”

The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him back to his mother.

They were all filled with awe and praised God. “A great prophet has appeared among us,” they said. “God has come to help His people.” 

This news about Jesus spread throughout Judea and the surrounding country.




"That is - impossible". If you heard that story from a person at work, if you were rushing and they were telling you, you might be very, very frank.

And your day progresses busily - yet the co-worker comes back and says,"Look here is Stan and he saw this too. With his own eyes." Stan glowingly tells the same impossible story.  Well, they have never, ever told you a story like this, but they look too gleeful. Could be a scam. (Hey, Stan, Got him!) You are now busy and uncertain and annoyed, "Ok, wow, thanks -." You reply and you say, "I am very, very busy."

And the deadline is met, but you missed.............




Actually, in Oklahoma a teen-age boy was brain dead from a head on collision.  the machines and the doctors and the family knew to be dead for hours - he had checked he was an organ donor. The medical people came in with the tools - to break his skin - he had Rigor mortis. And the tech screamed because this teenager clamped her hand and said, "No." He had only had his mom there? No, his entire extended family. The whole small town in Oklahoma prayed for this teen - who recovered. Every Church in town asked for prayer.

Sep 17, 2010 - Gore Otteson, 2, was underwater for 25 minutes, but he's OK today.

Wadena, Minnesota in July 2009. 
Every wall remaining from an F4 Tornado- had a Cross on the wall.





What if you had been alive and attended the real and factual funeral of that widow and her only living son? And you spoke of this your entire life - telling people Jesus Christ the Lord didn't even touch that living young man or use His Hands - He merely touched the bier from afar and spoke - to make Life.

And all your life you've rejoiced Jesus Christ has defeated death.

Suddenly



Life can change. 
Multitudes came to mourn Jesus as He died. Multitudes came to say we Know Jesus Lives. And people will say in their lives exactly as Martha did to Jesus - "Where were You when we needed You?" The reply is always the same through the millenniums. Jesus is on God's Plan. He has not wavered.

We cry out like the Psalms David and Solomon chose and Asaph wrote:

Psalm 74
1 O God, why have you rejected us forever?
Why does your anger smolder against the sheep of your pasture?
2 Remember the nation you purchased long ago,
the people of your inheritance, whom you redeemed—
Mount Zion, where you dwelt.
3 Turn your steps toward these everlasting ruins

These days do not surprise Jesus:

Luke 17:22
Then he said to his disciples, "The time is coming when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, but you will not see it."

I lost my daughter. My daughter had been my plan from about the time I realized I could have children of my own some day. This was utterly devastating to me. I have lost my dad - Daddy - twice. I have lost people when the wild winds of life - rage and howl.

The choice - we can surely be like Job's wife - cuss God and die.

Or we can be honest, struggle through the times far from good and read Elijah. Who knew what it was to stand up, take a stand and feel as if you'd like to die later. And Elijah discovered the still voice of God compels us to love ourselves, to Hope in God and struggle to fight the Good Fight to the Gates of Heaven. Elijah ended well.

David fought the good fight and ended well. Nathan helped.

Solomon, it's rather unknown, spent many years in the high places begging God to do things Solomon's way and eventually Solomon rediscovered God has a Plan and Solomon ended well.

Hezekiah fought the good fight - and ended well.

Jeremiah fought the good fight - and ended well.

John fought the good fight and - ended well.

Titus fought the good fight - and ended well.

Luke fought the good fight and ended well.

Mark fought the good fight and ended well. Abraham, … Isaac... Jacob... JESUS!

Give us this day.


Mark 12:27
He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. 



 
Isaiah was a visitor of Almighty Father God's Eternal Kingdom unto His Throne. Isaiah 49 tells us there are Highways, Hills and Nations. God tells us in Revelation of His Love of Color. Nations and Nations in Heaven.






The Creator of Heaven and Earth are the Same. The Earth displays His Majesty in New Zealand and across China


Not all roads in Heaven need gravity

Abba, Father God,

Dwell in us and help us
to always seek You first.

To be filled with Your Love, and see Your Glory.
The Wonders of Your Way.

 Your Scriptures and in Your Power, every one of us will bow at the Name of Jesus.

Jesus, You appeared in the Power of the Grace of God offering Salvation to us all.
 In every Nation. For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. 
And this is Your free gift to us.

Father, You want all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. 
Faith calls us to Trust in You.

You have planned eternal life, we will know You the only true God, 
and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.

We have a hope in You, there will be a resurrection of both the just and the unjust. 

Freedom in Jesus. 
Father God will render to each one of us according to our life, choices and faith. 
You will give eternal life; but for those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, there will not be Heaven.


There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven 
given higher than Jesus.

We pray as we face eternity we have told with great effect the name of Jesus - that our families in Heaven not only include our blood families - but include the nobility - the true nobility is those who look to Father God knowing He Loves us. And we will be for us in Jesus Christ.

 We pray for our Nation.
We pray for the healing of God's Good Creation after the Pandemic.
We pray for our families to have Peace.
And pray for Elliott to heal.

Thank You, Father God,
Texas has not flooded with only smaller rains than we thought.
Please continue with Your Mercy!!!

 For healing and for guidance we ask 
in Jesus. 
Amen.


Matthew 4:19 "
“Come, follow Me,” Jesus said, “and I will make you fishers of men.”


Daniel 4:3
How great are His signs, and how mighty His wonders! 
His kingdom is an eternal kingdom


Isaiah 49:8
This is what the LORD says: "In the time of my favor I will answer you, 
and in the day of salvation I will help you; 
I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people, 
to restore the land and to reassign its desolate inheritances"


Isaiah 49:10
They will neither hunger nor thirst, nor will the desert heat 
or the sun beat down on them. 
He who has compassion on them will guide them and lead them
 beside springs of water.

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.

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. <><
