Luke 7:11-14 ~ Arise

 



 Luke 7:11-14





11 Soon afterward, He went to a town called Nain, and His disciples 
and a great crowd went with Him. 


12 As He drew near to the gate of the town, 
behold, 
a man who had died was being carried out, 
the only son of his mother, 
and she was a widow, 
and a considerable crowd from the town was with her. 

13 And when the Lord saw her, 
He had compassion on her and said to her, 
“Do not weep.” 

14 Then He came up and touched the bier, and the bearers stood still. 

And He said, “Young man, I say to you, arise.”



Earlier in Luke's 7th Chapter, Jesus marveled at the faith of the Centurion, believing Jesus could heal at a distance. Jesus carries this further into this chapter, healing the dead, without touching the body. Also, ending any debate over the Kosher cleanliness of the dead rising. 

If Jesus ended the weeks and months of debating the cleanliness of the dead being raised to life, from Jesus not touching a dead body, Jesus was thinking of the conversations held in Nain and moving with the Great Crowd. Jesus has brought attention to salvation. Imagine the conversations at the house of the widow with the living son.





Luke 4:21 

And Jesus began to say to them, 
“Today this Scripture has been fulfilled.”



Ezekiel 37

37 The hand of the Lord was upon me, and he brought me out in the Spirit of the Lord and set me down in the middle of the valley; it was full of bones. 2 And he led me around among them, and behold, there were very many on the surface of the valley, and behold, they were very dry. 3 And he said to me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” And I answered, “O Lord God, you know.” 4 Then he said to me, “Prophesy over these bones, and say to them, O dry bones, hear the word of the Lord. 5 Thus says the Lord God to these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter you, and you shall live. 6 And I will lay sinews upon you, and will cause flesh to come upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you shall live, and you shall know that I am the Lord.”


Jesus did fulfill Ezekiel 


15 The word of the Lord came to me: 16 “Son of man, take a stick and write on it, ‘For Judah, and the people of Israel associated with him’; then take another stick and write on it, ‘For Joseph (the stick of Ephraim) and all the house of Israel associated with him.’ 17 And join them one to another into one stick, that they may become one in your hand. 

18 And when your people say to you, ‘Will you not tell us what you mean by these?’ 

19 say to them, Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am about to take the stick of Joseph (that is in the hand of Ephraim) and the tribes of Israel associated with him. And I will join with it the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, that they may be one in my hand. 

20 When the sticks on which you write are in your hand before their eyes, 21 then say to them, Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will take the people of Israel from the nations among which they have gone, and will gather them from all around, and bring them to their own land. 

22 And I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel. And one king shall be king over them all, and they shall be no longer two nations, and no longer divided into two kingdoms. 23 They shall not defile themselves anymore with their idols and their detestable things, or with any of their transgressions. But I will save them from all the backslidings in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them; and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.



Ezekiel 36:26

And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. 
And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh
 and give you a heart of flesh.







 John 1:4 

In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men.









Abba, Father,

Dwell in us, please, Father.
Dwell in those we Love.
Help us to seek You first.
In Jesus Christ, we will finish well.

To see

more daily
Thy Kingdom come

Genesis 12:1-8 ~ you will be a blessing †

 












This Summer, if you are going on your first airplane ride, or 142,343 th business trip, learning to swim, sitting in an ER, visiting the Assisted Living, water-skiing, or tennis lessons, trapped in rush hour traffic, waiting 7 back in the grocery line.....  we all have something in common. Especially, if you are learning to ride a bicycle. 

We would all like our Lord God, the Almighty, to call us His Friend or even Beloved.
Everyone!

How did the Shepherds receive this Call?

Genesis 12:1-8

 

Now the Lord said to Abram, “Go from your country and your kindred and your father's house to the land that I will show you. 2 And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. 3 I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”

4 So Abram went, as the Lord had told him

And Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed from Haran. 5 And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their possessions that they had gathered, and the people that they had acquired in Haran, and they set out to go to the land of Canaan. When they came to the land of Canaan, 6 Abram passed through the land to the place at Shechem, to the oak of Moreh. 

At that time the Canaanites were in the land. 7 Then the Lord appeared to Abram and said, “To your offspring I will give this land.” So he built there an altar to the Lord, who had appeared to him. 8 From there he moved to the hill country on the east of Bethel and pitched his tent, with Bethel on the west and Ai on the east. And there he built an altar to the Lord and called upon the Name of the Lord.


Where is the Waldo in Genesis 12?  If you see this in the 8th verse...Remember, Moses had to ask!



Abraham must have done something good. Worth considering.


Genesis 15:6 

And he believed the Lord, and He counted it to him as righteousness.

 James 2:23 

“And the Scripture was fulfilled that says, 
“Abraham believed God, 
and it was counted to him as righteousness”
—and he was called a friend of God.” 

 



And when we consider Jesus told us, the exact nature of God explained, we sometimes find God as distant or incorrect or unfair or slow to move:

Luke 18 

And Jesus 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.



And how did the Disciples greet Jesus? His chosen Disciples? In John's Gospel, the 21st Chapter, and Acts 1, they argued with the tortured and risen, Victorious Jesus, God's Only Son, about John's length of life and the Kingdom of Israel restored from Romans. Exactly as Luke 18.

And 

Luke 9:1,2

1Then Jesus called the Twelve together 
and gave them power and authority 
over all demons, 
and power to cure diseases. 
2 And He sent them out to proclaim the Kingdom of God 
and to heal the sick.

We know the Book of Acts and the powerful, powerful works of God. And we know John the Beloved Disciple didn't live to be a 1,000 years old and more like the 120 years of Moses. And the Kingdom of Israel dots A.D. history and is splendid today. 

Jesus said something amazing about Luke 9:1,2

John 10:34

Jesus replied, "Is it not written in your Law: 'I have said you are gods'?


Psalm 82:6 

“I said, ‘You are “gods"; you are all sons of the Most High.’
 
The Disciples and people of faith know God's miracles today. The hindsight prayer miracles are also of key importance. Yet, the Disciples, and Job, didn't control our Father, who upholds the Universe with His Word. His Good Will Be Done. God of gods, Light of light.


What did Abraham do? Argued with God. Like the Disciples to the face of the Risen, Victorious Jesus Christ.

Genesis 18

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.


Abraham felt he could speak to the Lord as Job spoke to the Lord. And Abraham forgot to struggle like Jacob and the Angel when God asked for Isaac. Would the Lord have demolished Abraham to insist the Lord is the One in charge of Life and death?

Luke 12

47 And that servant who knew his master's will but did not get ready or act according to his will, will receive a severe beating. 48 But the one who did not know, and did what deserved a beating, will receive a light beating. Everyone to whom much was given, of him much will be required, and from him to whom they entrusted much, they will demand the more.

If you disagree with Jesus' statements in Luke 12, we will have to think about Job! Job was also a Beloved of the Lord. And puts our thoughts about prayer, we treasure in our own hearts, to consider.

Jesus gave us interesting History and ideas in the Word of God about God and prayer.

Luke 18 

And Jesus told them a parable to the effect that they ought always to pray and not lose heart. 





Your Will be Done, On earth as it is in Heaven.





Abba, Father,

Dwell in us, please, Father.

that fill our eyes
and roll down our face.

Before the Great Reunion!

Amen and Alleluia
in Jesus Christ and His Glory!

In the Highest Name of Jesus. 
We Pray Amen with our Alleluia. 
Amen.

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

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. <><
