Psalm 136 ~ His Steadfast Love

Mustard Seed

Philippians 3

12 Not that I have already obtained all this,

or have already arrived at my goal,

but I press on

to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.

Brothers and sisters, 

I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. 

But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 

I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

The Work of Mankind is to believe.

David and Christmas.

Christmas is a creation of God and includes amazing and true wonders of God. Expectations from Archangel visits and prophetic announcements. Shepherds arrive. Holy men understand and see and profess.

Christmas is about discovering the Light of Christ.
David - 22 years - finding out being anointed of God is really about finding the journey life is. David had rejection, existed where life gave little opportunity. The suffering had sharp right turns. David existed in armies he created, doing what we all would hope not to do. David discovered dreams within his grasp, darting away with the on-lookers sure of his failure. David discovered the emptiness of success. When self-serving turns up only disappointment. We are never told, but it's entirely possible a few people told David to ignore the anointing of God and live comfortably with the skills he had.


We are presented with the Glory of God. We have Mountaintop moments.

Hosea 6:3

"Let us acknowledge the LORD!

Let us press on to acknowledge Him! 

As surely as the sun rises, He will appear! 

He will come to us like the winter rains, like the spring rains that water the earth!”

God's Creation of our lives is every single day. Creation is yesterday, today and tomorrow.

We are not building a flash of a photo. We are building the Light of Christ within our eternal property, our soul.

What tool will we choose of all the Words of God?  

What will we use to do the work of believing?

Psalm 136

Give thanks to the LORD, 

for He is good,

 for his steadfast love endures forever.

2 Give thanks to the God of gods, 

for his steadfast love endures forever.

3 Give thanks to the Lord of lords, 

for his steadfast love endures forever;

4 to Him who alone does great wonders, for his steadfast love endures 

forever;

5 to him who by understanding made the heavens, for his steadfast love endures forever;

6 to him who spread out the earth above the waters, for his steadfast love endures forever;

7 to him who made the great lights, for his steadfast love endures forever;

8 the sun to rule over the day, for his steadfast love endures forever;

9 the moon and stars to rule over the night, for his steadfast love endures forever;

10 to him who struck down the firstborn of Egypt, for his steadfast love endures forever;

11 and brought Israel out from among them, for his steadfast love endures forever;

12 with a strong hand and an outstretched arm, for his steadfast love endures forever;

13 to him who divided the Red Sea in two, 

for his steadfast love endures forever;

14 and made Israel pass through the midst of it,

21 and gave their land as a heritage, for his steadfast 

love 

endures forever;

22 a heritage to Israel his servant, for his steadfast 

love 

endures forever.

23 It is he who remembered us in our low estate, for his steadfast 

love 

endures forever;

24 and rescued us from our foes, for his steadfast 

love 

endures forever;

25 he who gives food to all flesh, for his steadfast 

love 

endures forever.

26 Give Thanks to the God of heaven, for his steadfast 

love endures forever.

We will build a Meaningful Christmas when we use the Words and Deeds of Steadfast Love.

When we believe Father God saw the Children of the Exodus through, they didn't drown, starve, dehydrate, they (we) only suffered from lack of faith. And yet,

Merciful God gave them time to process and 'sojourn'.

We are building.
Upbuilding. Like the Exodus. Like the stock market. Like David. Like Mary. Like Abraham. Seasons of sojourning. Learning to make Christmas in our heart every day. To discover the tinkering and helping and annoying and comforting of Steadfast Love. To weep, to laugh, to have joy, to learn to Believe God. Doing the Work He has given us. Believing Days May Come. Believing Steadfast Love.

We are building. We are maturing. We are discovering. We are planting the seeds to present our soul to our Father God with the overwhelming and outstanding Mercy and Glory of Jesus Christ. We persevere for a very good reason - Love.

Abba, Father God,

For our blessing, we ask You, Abba gives us Jesus for our blessing. Thank You.

Today:

We are praying for Dee and Wayne. Like Hebrews 11. For 20 years, we have seen Wayne donate 40 hours a week to Church Office difficult and demanding work for Volunteer Time. Wayne's Gracious Gift. We have seen Dee run Altar Guild. Bible Study and Daughter's of the Cross.  We have seen Dee study St. Stephen's Ministry, work Pro-Life and take Amazing Father Francis and Judith MacNutt Prayer  Ministry Class. And in this Ministry Class we prayed and found our group alone prayed for a 2nd time mouth cancer patient, who graciously accepted prayer for the first time and arrived at surgery to find no oral cancer. Healed. Completely.

 We prayed for an 89-year-old Priest to stay forever in bed dying of heart failure, who got up and began to go 2 miles a day in exercise and make trips to Texas and the grocery store. 

We prayed Hurricane Ike wouldn't crush our houses with trees and found this last summer, our answered prayers held as I lost a Magnolia without damage and Dee lost her two huge Oaks without damage. 

Hurricane Ike saw a tornado in our backyard, trees flung East, South and West and didn't damage our home. Our friend lost the stairs to her home's garage apartment and no damage to their home. 

We prayed over knitted blankets and heard the comfort and healing the hospital patients found in the Lord Jesus and in our group's prayers.  We prayed for Wayne to survive a botched pacemaker and he did. Jesus heard us pray for Wayne to survive his trauma for the hip operation and Wayne did well. Jesus heard us pray for Wayne's sudden bleeding eye and Jesus healed Wayne. Dee had a no big deal nose skin cancer and literally had half of her nose shaved off two summers ago like a skeleton. Dee's next two surgeries Jesus heard us all pray again 

and Jesus restored Dee's nose to a hundred percent of normal.

Jesus has been hearing us pray in Amazing and Wondrous Ways.

Lord Jesus please heal, love, forgive, and heal us all

this Nation

our Families

the angry

the afraid

Praise to You, God of Love

God of Encouragement

 in Your Love and Mercy. Amen.

We pray for all those who mourn

the passing of their Loved Ones.

“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among

 those with whom He is pleased!”

Father God, help us to do the Good Works You have prepared us to walk in. 

For the ones we Love and the People You have given us. 

For our Churches, places of work, our states and Nation. 

The People who are Your Beloved, to ALL

cover them with Your Name in strength and mercy. 

We live abundantly on the Word of God, You have provided.

We Pray for the Republic.

We the People all have Family and Loved Ones 

we have fought and lived and died

for our Freedoms.

We the People pray

One Nation Under God

with

Liberty and Justice for All.

We pray for Truth.

Knowing in the Truth is where Peace and Integrity 

with Love and Courtesy Dwell.

We ask to know to seek You first in all aspects of Life.

Knowing we will see and be more of Heaven on earth.

  

 Proverbs 16:9 

The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps.

Jeremiah 29:11 

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, 

plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.
