God Bless us to recover from the Pandemic. And when we are in our usual routine or out and about,
Keep us in His Heart. Even when the Post comes from the phone and not the usual, beloved routine.
We remember Psalm 139, we always have Abba, our Father, dwelling within, making us joyful remembering He is with us. Pleased and encouraging as we simply Love Jesus.
The Light of the world. The Light of mankind, putting a Hope and Future again in us and quelling
Any restless fussing. Be with those comfortably home. Be with those in grief and changed circumstances. Fill us with Your Love overflowing and renew us to be comforting others.
May the Love God is, being you and keep you in His Joy.
The Lord said, “Shall I hide from Abraham what I am about to do, 18 seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him? 19 For I have chosen him, that he may command his children and his household after him to keep the way of the Lord by doing righteousness and justice, so that the Lord may bring to Abraham what he has promised him.” 20 Then the Lord said, “Because the outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is great and their sin is very grave, 21 I will go down to see whether they have done altogether according to the outcry that has come to me. And if not, I will know.”
22 So the men turned from there and went toward Sodom, but Abraham still stood before the Lord. 23 Then Abraham drew near and said, “Will you indeed sweep away the righteous with the wicked? 24 Suppose there are fifty righteous within the city. Will you then sweep away the place and not spare it for the fifty righteous who are in it?
25 Far be it from you to do such a thing, to put the righteous to death with the wicked, so that the righteous fare as the wicked! Far be that from you!
Shall not the Judge of all the earth do what is just?”
26 And the Lord said, “If I find at Sodom fifty righteous in the city, I will spare the whole place for their sake.”
27 Abraham answered and said, “Behold, I have undertaken to speak to the Lord, I who am but dust and ashes. 28 Suppose five of the fifty righteous are lacking. Will you destroy the whole city for lack of five?”
And he said, “I will not destroy it if I find forty-five there.” 29 Again he spoke to him and said, “Suppose forty are found there.”
He answered, “For the sake of forty I will not do it.”
30 Then he said, “Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak. Suppose thirty are found there.” He answered, “I will not do it, if I find thirty there.”
31 He said, “Behold, I have undertaken to speak to the Lord. Suppose twenty are found there.” He answered, “For the sake of twenty I will not destroy it.”
32 Then he said, “Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak again but this once. Suppose ten are found there.”
He answered, “For the sake of ten I will not destroy it.”
33 And the Lord went his way, when he had finished speaking to Abraham,
and Abraham
returned to his place.
God Loves You.
Psalm 103:15-17
As for man, his days are like grass—he blooms like a flower of the field;
when the wind passes over,
it vanishes,
and
its place remembers it no more.
But from everlasting to everlasting the Loving devotion of the LORD
extends to those who fear Him, and
His righteousness
to their children’s children
Mankind could achieve only a vacant place, where its place knows it no more.
Father God's mission is to save the world in Jesus Christ. He is our Salvation. And God's mercy is the same in the Old Testament, remaining His Steadfast Love in the New Covenant.
Jesus continues the discussion of Abraham expecting God to be Love. Jesus boldly proclaimed before the Pharisees, and the children of God: Before Abraham, Jesus was there.
Luke 18
And He told them a parable to the effect that they ought
always to pray
and not lose heart.
2 He said, “In a certain city there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected man. 3 And there was a widow in that city who kept coming to him and saying, ‘Give me justice against my adversary.’
4 For a while he refused, but afterward he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect man, 5 yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will give her justice, so that she will not beat me down by her continual coming.’”
6 And the Lord said, “Hear what the unrighteous judge says. 7 And will not God give justice to his elect, who cry to him day and night? Will he delay long over them?
8 I tell you, he will give justice to them speedily.
Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?”
Luke 23:34
Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.”
We do not presume to come to this thy Table, O merciful Lord, trusting in our own righteousness, but in thy manifold and great mercies. We are not worthy so much as to gather up the crumbs under thy Table. But thou art the same Lord, whose property is always to have mercy: Grant us therefore, gracious Lord, so to eat the flesh of thy dear Son Jesus Christ, and to drink his blood, that our sinful bodies may be made clean by his body, and our souls washed through his most precious blood, and that we may evermore dwell in him, and he in us. Amen.
When we think of God's overwhelming Grace and Mercy.
We could delve into God's Word, Abraham speaking of the number of souls to have mercy upon, and remember, God might see this as the number of days in our lives we would ask for His Mercy. The days we all have in life, we regret. And remember that one day, we are aware of Jesus seeing into our souls. Because of the Overwhelming Love Jesus has for you.
Romans 10:9
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.
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 One.
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.
Please Bless our prayers for this Nation.
Thank You for the Privilege of going to Church today. Thank You, Jesus.
Father Bless our States and employment.
Bless the State Legislatures and our entire Nation.
May our Prayers go incredibly High, Wide and Far.
Covering Your Good Creation.
Bless our Neighbors and Families and Friends.
Bless them this week very especially.
We need You. Bless our Beginnings and Ends.
Watch over us as we are spending days and weeks out of town
working for our very ill Mothers. Both.
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
to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death,
to guide our feet into the way of peace.
I read an article in "Guideposts" magazine, decades back, about a mother who had watched her only child, her son, go off to World War II. This son returned in 3 years, with serious war experience, but on the joyous way home, his father wrote him to say his mother had slipped from reality and believed her son to be killed in action. No one could make her better.
The son wrote of his life at home, where his father spoke to him as his son. His mother called his opinion, his room, his plate, his place in the car, the dinner seat as, 'him'. Eventually, both father and son asked visitors not to fix the situation. His mother would go from this dementia to death. And the father and son learned to make peace in all situations.
And in our frustrations, in the politics we all have within families, we won't borrow more trouble, we will find our Blessings. We are all the same, as those even with terminal illnesses.
We have today.
We can be grateful for the love shown to us. We can make loving things for those we love. And if they don't respond, expect to speak up. God told us to Love Ourselves. And each other. And in this process we have The Way, The Truth and The Life.
When Jesus spilled out His Life in such a horrible death, His Father had a choice. We can all picture the paintings of Jerusalem being sacked in 70 A.D. The natural age of Death for His Son. God could have caused the Eclipse to be a volcano and ceaseless dark would occur. God could have jolted the earth with earthquakes until a fault line split it all apart. God could have allowed every miracle occurring due to Jesus' Word to disappear.
People wonder if Jesus hypnotized people to forget their illnesses, well, if this were true, then all the Presbyters interviewed in the coming decades would have said so.
God could have hidden in His Word. Instead, in the bitterness of losing the Joy of Jesus into sorrowful death where Jesus cried out God had deserted Him, God could have simply leaned on the Law. Judge of all could site His Own Law.
God chose instead to Love. To find the Good. And the people who had believed in His Son, the Children of God, found God sheltered them from His Wrath.
We have today.
We can speak the Truth. And find His Way.
We can continue down the journey with our hopes and faith
and find Life.
We can do all we can to be the Light of Christ and Love Him, Love ourselves. And Love others. Find in our looking for the good in God and in others, we live the Truth.
We find Shelter in our Father God, in Jesus, in His Holy Spirit to end the internal storm.
During the Ministry of Jesus, He must not have felt very peaceful with all the conflict thrown at Him. Jesus found Joy in Life by letting the Storm belong to God and Trusting His Father.
The Disciples during the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand, didn't have much peace. Awe. Astonishment. Worship. But not a lot of Peace.
The Forgiveness of God held back the brewing war between the Children of Israel and Rome. And many lives were lived peacefully in God's Hands. The Gift of Peace from God.
Jesus told us the world has troubles. Jesus provides the Shelter to have the storm end. Not all the time, but instead the Way, the Truth and the Life. God used the Disciples even in fear while walking with Jesus and having His Comfort. With God's Help, they did as Jesus said, they overcame.
Isaiah 55:11
So is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty,
but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.
Blessed are those who persevere under trial, because when they have stood the test, they will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.
Abba, Father God,
Now,
May the God of Peace Himself
sanctify you completely,
and may your whole spirit and soul and body
be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
He who calls you is faithful
He will surely do it!
We ask in the Highest Name of Jesus,
we seek and find God's Blessing.
We give You our cares,
Your Steadfast Love assures us
You care for us.
Corrie Ten Baum witnessed to Your Steadfast Love
and need for Prayer.
Corrie Ten Baum saw the need for hope of such magnitude even the fleas
could be relied upon for Your Good Purpose.
The Exodus also declares the Impossibility You display.
The King James Version of the Bible calls the
Impossibility and Improbability of God, "Vouchsafe"
Acts 7:17
As the time drew near for God to fulfill his promise to Abraham,
the number of our people in Egypt had greatly increased.
Jesus, being Your Son, went in a more unbelievable direction
603,550 in Numbers 1:46
The Exodus people God was to feed and water in the absolute desert.
Jesus said such impossible goals of God Himself
He went from 72 Disciples to 70 Disciples and then
explained to 12 Disciples they would form His Church.
Father, Please give us Health in all aspects.
For Elliott Healing. And our families.
For all the Children of God who have suffered and call out
to You, Father, in the Highest Name of Jesus Christ.

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. <><
