John 21:24-25 ~ His testimony is true

Endures Forever

The Lord God Almighty is Vast. 

He may be the entire, whole, Universe we live in. How would God build the Universe and Love us. Knows the stars by name. He does Love us. We would not know God, except our Father would delight in us. His Child. His Children. His Beloved.

 

John 21:24-25

24 This is the disciple 

who is bearing witness about these things, 
and who has written these things, 

and we know 

that his testimony is true.

25 Now there are also many other things that Jesus did. Were every one of them to be written, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would be written.

Ephesians 2:8-9

For by grace you have been saved through faith. 

And this is not your own doing;

 it is the gift of God, 

not a result of works, 

so that no one may boast.

The Word of God will endure always.

John 17:17

Sanctify them in the truth; 

Your Word is Truth.

John 14:26

But the Helper, 

the Holy Spirit, 

Whom the Father will send in My Name, 

He will teach you all things 

and bring to your remembrance 

all that I have said to you.

In Creation, The Father and Son placed the Holy Spirit above the waters. And Delight filled our Father. Jesus, God's Son delighted to see the master work and the variety and beauty. Our Father delighted in Jesus. Jesus was the delight of our Father. And our Father saw Jesus delight in...mankind.



And as we consider the Love God is. 

We realize Jesus has brought our Father a new Heaven and a new earth. To bring the Holy Spirit to dwell in us as we seek Father God. Genesis did not bring the Holy Spirit into mankind. Jesus has brought His Holiness into dwell within our souls where we delight and love and hope and yearn and lean to our Father God's unending and steadfast love.

We have seen with the eyes of our soul. 

Jesus would today go to the Pool of Bethesda. And go back again to the man waiting for healing for 38 years. And Jesus would continue in His Father's Willingness and we would know today the name of Bartimaeus.

The willingness of Jesus cried out,

 "If you have seen me, You have seen the Father."

The Father, Prodigal Father, running to his belabored and brought down child. The widow who would be alone. And God brought her son back to life as he was carried to his tomb. Just as God, our Father, would do for our wonderful Jesus.

Matthew 11:28-30

Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden,

 and I will give you rest. 

Take my yoke upon you, 

and learn from me, 

for I am gentle and lowly in heart, 

and you will find rest for your souls. 

For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

Jesus forgave the thief on the cross with Him.

Jesus forgave the woman caught in adultery. 

Jesus forgave the tax collector who was known to take more than owed.

Jesus forgave Nicodemus who would not stand with Him. And Peter. 

Jesus forgave the Synagogue official who was not following Jesus 

and gave his daughter her life again for her parents.

What happened to the holy men who climbed from the tomb and were seen all over Jerusalem at the time of the First Easter?  We know the answer. Biblically, there is one answer. Jesus, when He died to rise again, no one went back to being dead - like the synagogue's daughter and the widow of Nain. No one went blind again. No one suddenly went leprous again. The lame continued to walk. The blind continued to see.

Ezekiel tells us what happened to the Holy Men. They Lived! John tells us what happened to them in the Book of Revelation, the walls of life fell down, and suddenly, they walked into the House with Many Mansions. Jesus, Himself, told us and wouldn't have said, if this were not so. Enoch entered Heaven as they did. They walked with God.

Jesus Son of God. 

Jesus Light of the world. 

Believers see the Light of Christ in one another. 

Jesus became so filled with Light, He left His accusers.

 God gave us His Son. 

Who opened His arms to all the pain and suffering 

and rejection to be our Salvation. 

God of Love. 

God of Encouragement.

10 of the Disciples stood apart. Jesus would not stand apart from them. 

Jesus would not stand apart from His Beloved Child - you.


What has God Given? Life. Love. Healing. Renewal. Eternity. Because of God's Love. Welcome into His Life and Love and Heaven.

Abba, Father,

Dwell in us, Father.

Help the ones we Love to have You dwelling in them.

Bless us with Your Love,

Revelation 3:20 ~ with Me

Not a comfortable time, Not a time we cheer the old positions with glad hearts. Easy to feel concerned, bored, discomfited, angry and not pleased. Making dealing with people more layered.

The Lord isn't worried. He has a plan and has No Doubts His Plan will Prevail.  And sometimes this leads people to have concerns these are the end days. However, when Jesus spoke of the end of days, He said, "Will the Son of man find faith on earth." Luke 8:8

Now, we have fewer professing Christians, however still a majority. The Word of God says the end of days will occur after all the world knows the Scriptures. This would say 2/3rd's of the world has had the Scriptures made known to them. So, when we believe the Lord, this is not the end of days.

Hosea 6:6

I desire mercy and not sacrifice

Hosea 6:6

Mercy I delight in.

John 15:17 

Jesus said, “Go instead to my brothers and tell them, 

‘I am ascending 

to my Father and your Father, 

to my God and your God.’”

 

Revelation 3:20

Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. 

If anyone hears my voice 

and opens the door, 

I will come in and eat with them, and they with me.

Abba, Father,

Dwell in us, Father.

Help the ones we Love to have You dwelling in them.

Bless us with Your Love,

Help us to Seek You First.

And we will finish well in Jesus Christ.

Joel 3:17 ~ The LORD your God, who dwells in Zion, My Holy Mountain

Romans 5

There is no difference between Jew and Gentile,

for all

 have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

and all

 are justified freely by His Grace 

Through the redemption

that came by

 Christ Jesus.

25 God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, 
through the shedding of His Blood

—to be received by faith.

 He did this to demonstrate 

His righteousness,

 because 

in His 

forbearance

Matthew 19:28

Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, 

at the renewal of all things, 

when 

the Son of Man sits on His Glorious Throne."

We ask Jesus, please,

more Heaven on earth 

and the God's Will to be done on earth as in Heaven

 

Joel 3:14, 16-17

14 Multitudes, multitudes,

in the valley of decision!

For the day of the LORD is near

in the valley of decision.

16 The LORD roars from Zion,

and utters his voice from Jerusalem,

and the heavens and the earth quake.

But the LORD is a refuge to his people,

a stronghold to the people of Israel.

“So you shall know that I am the LORD your God,

who dwells 

in Zion, 

My Holy Mountain."

John 15:17 

Jesus said, “Go instead to my brothers and tell them, 

‘I am ascending 

to my Father and your Father, 

to my God and your God.’”

Rise

Matthew 27:63

 “Sir, we remember how that impostor said, while he was still alive, 

‘After three days 

I will rise.’

Matthew 27:64 

Therefore order the tomb to be made secure until the third day, lest his disciples go and steal him away and tell the people, ‘

He has risen from the dead,’ 

and the last fraud will be worse than the first.”

Matthew 28:6 

He is not here, for he has risen, 

as he said. Come, 

see the place where He lay.

Matthew 28:7 

Then go quickly 

and tell 

His disciples that 

He has risen from the dead, 

and 

Behold, 

He is going before you to Galilee; 

there you 

will see Him. 

See, I have told you.”

"Rise" is Personal, Truth and of God

Matthew 17:7

Jesus came and touched them, saying, 

“Rise, 

and have no fear.”

Matthew 9:5

For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ 

or to say, 

‘Rise and walk’?

Luke 17:19

And he said to him, 

“Rise and go your way; 

your faith has made you well.”

John 11:23

Jesus said to her, 

“Your brother will rise again.”

Luke 7 we will all know.

When the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her

 and said, “Do not weep.” 

14 Then He went up and touched the coffin, 

and those carrying it stood still. 

“Young man,”

 He said, “I tell you, rise up!” 

15 And the dead man sat up and began to speak! 

Then Jesus gave him 

back to his mother.

Why do people even employ the outrageousness of cold? 

One of our sons, when he was learning to drive, terrified us and a friend of his. He said if he drove 60 miles an hour in a 35, he felt like he knew what he was doing. Until we were all screeching, "You are driving on the Shoulder!" And he continued. He said he didn't know what a shoulder was. The louder or more quickly a body is in motion, it hopes the speed or volume will gain importance and confidence.

Susan Howatch novels about Love are my favorites. How influence is unduly used for agenda. It's not always screaming, but 'it' is about agenda and control. 

The Word of God is about God of Love. God of Encouragement. Finding the Shelter where Love can live to Eternity.  The Way, Truth and Light. The path and the vast life we know has a map. The Word of God.

My Grandmother Anita had several phrases she used in her life. "Blessings Upon you!" She meant this from her kindly heart.  "Rise above it."  All have sinned and fallen short of the GLORY of GOD.  And we have all know the outrageousness of cold. Anita directly addressed the cold in the hearts.  Jesus said, John 2:24  Jesus did not entrust Himself to them, for He knew them all. 25 He did not need any testimony about man, for He knew what was in a man

RISE!

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, 

whatever is honorable, 

whatever is just, 

whatever is pure, 

whatever is lovely, 

whatever is commendable, 

if there is any excellence, 

if there is anything worthy of praise, 

think about these things.

Abba, Father,

We pray for Your Willingness to Bless us 

and 

we will Rise to Your Way, Life and Truth.

Dwell in us, Father.

Help the ones we Love to have You dwelling in them.

Bless us with Your Love,

Help us to Seek You First.

And we will finish well in Jesus Christ.

Help us, Jesus prayers are good

and You hear us.

The woman holding on to Jesus to be healed,

certainly did not do this herself.

Heal the hurting, uplift the families. 

Send Your vast blessings. Father God, 

You are truly are as vast as the Universe itself and as gentle as a breeze. 

Speak the Word, Father God, and we know Your healing. 

We ask You for healing:

in the Nation,

mankind,

families

and the weather

Economics.

All the things we pray for diligently!

We pray 

to rise

 to shine for Your Glory.

By Faith, we would cover ourselves in Your Blessings, 

Covered in the Name of Jesus Christ, Your Son.

Amen.

Psalm 19

 The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge. 3 Without speech or language, without a sound to be heard, 4 their voice has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.

Please, Father, let the cooling temperatures

produce our warm hearts

to pray

gracious rain as the waters cool

and relief is found.

In Jesus, we pray, Amen.

We pray for the middle
