Hebrews 11:32-40, 12:1-2 ~ Looking to Jesus

Hebrews 11:32-40, 12:1-2

32 And what more shall I say? For time would fail me to tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets--

33 who through faith conquered kingdoms, enforced justice, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,

34 quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, were made strong out of weakness, became mighty in war, put foreign armies to flight.

35 Women received back their dead by resurrection. Some were tortured, refusing to accept release, so that they might rise again to a better life.

36 Others suffered mocking and flogging, and even chains and imprisonment.

37 They were stoned, they were sawn in two, they were killed with the sword. They went about in skins of sheep and goats, destitute, afflicted, mistreated--38 of whom the world was not worthy--wandering about in deserts and mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.

39 And all these, though commended through their faith, did not receive what was promised,
40 since God had provided something better for us, that apart from us they should not be made perfect.


Hebrews 12:1-2


1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.





Faith
conquered kingdoms
enforced Justice
obtained Promises
Stopped lions

Quenched the power of fire
escaped the sword
strong Out of weakness
mighty in war
armies to flight

Received the dead back
died

So where is the failure?

Not to run the race.We need to be  Looking at Jesus. Our Perfector.

Jesus has Joy.

The Word of God is always, always, always Fulfilled. In His Time.


One time, and I've written this before, I met my Great Aunt Clarice in a dream - as she was - it turned out - literally - going up High on the Hill into the Walls of Heaven. Is this new? Yes, I remembered as I spoke to Aunt Clarice, Jesus was standing behind Clarice and me and Jesus was contributing to the conversation. Aunt Clarice had had great hip arthritis in her life and she was asking Jesus to remove this from me. I remembered this in hip pain.

What I saw in the Walls has been recorded by other people. Fits Revelation.  The timing was actually the truth. I believe this. Jesus was there. So was Aunt Clarice.

New remembrances of times past. What we have - this day - is what Jesus wants us to have. And in seeing today - find His Joy and Hope and Future. Clarice at one point was screaming like she'd won the Lottery and in her extreme Joy proclaiming all of God's Word and His Promises are True.


The challenge of each year is new. The challenge draws up on our Foundation. We apply what we are doing - renewing each day. Taking our foundation and building on Jesus. Jesus our Rock. What renews? Do we all see something about His Mercies Renew? I think we tend to look more when we are unhappy. The Good of God making a Balance. We know we appreciate the sunshine after the rain has been here. And when we look - we find His Mercies Renew. This is so extremely beneficial. Eventually we could see this as a perpetual and good part of our new day beginning. This is the flight on Eagles' Wings. God never forgets to do something New. His Light on His path is going to allow us - to run the race - seeing God is in charge. Renewal is New.

A really interesting point - God tells us we renew. God tells us in God it's possible to be a New Creation.



Abba,

We see You in Your Word. We ask Your Blessings.


Psalm 145:18
The Lord is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.

Psalm 119:16
The sum of your word is truth, and every one of your righteous rules endures forever.

John 1:17
For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.


Abba, as we do our lives. We start by asking Your Blessings.

And this puts us in this day with a Great Start as Your Mercies Renew Daily. Each day we ask these blessings for our cares. Those we love. Remembering Your Greater Love flowing and pouring forth - unceasingly. Your Love does more than we could ask or even fathom. We rest in Your Abundant Love.

2 Corinthians 5:17
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.

Isaiah 43:19
Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.

And as we travel the great River of God's Love - we are resting and renewed.

His Love covering every part, every dry bone, His Love Unfailing. Sweeping across our cities and towns. Sweeping the Nation. Moving easily over the earth.

2 Corinthians 1:20
For all the promises of God find their Yes in him. That is why it is through him that we utter our Amen to God for his glory.

Our Alleluia in Jesus for the coming New Year. Amen.

Mark 6 ~ Compassion

Mark 6

19 And Herodias had a grudge against him and wanted to put him to death. But she could not, 20 for Herod feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and he kept him safe. When he heard him, he was greatly perplexed, and yet he heard him gladly.

For when Herodias's daughter came in and danced, she pleased Herod and his guests. And the king said to the girl, “Ask me for whatever you wish, and I will give it to you.” 23 And he vowed to her, “Whatever you ask me, I will give you, up to half of my kingdom.”

24 And she went out and said to her mother, “For what should I ask?” And she said, “The head of John the Baptist.”

25 And she came in immediately with haste to the king and asked, saying, “I want you to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter.”

26 And the king was exceedingly sorry, but because of his oaths and his guests he did not want to break his word to her. 27 And immediately the king sent an executioner with orders to bring John's head. He went and beheaded him in the prison 28 and brought his head on a platter and gave it to the girl, and the girl gave it to her mother.

33 Now many saw them going and recognized them, and they ran there on foot from all the towns and got there ahead of them. 34 When he went ashore he saw a great crowd, and he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd.

And about the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea. He meant to pass by them, 49 but when they saw him walking on the sea they thought it was a ghost, and cried out, 50 for they all saw him and were terrified. But immediately he spoke to them and said, “Take heart; it is I. Do not be afraid.” 51 And he got into the boat with them, and the wind ceased. And they were utterly astounded.

The people of Israel had cried out for a king.





A much cleaned up and re-engineered coin of Herod Antipas. 21 BC-39 AD.




And instead of the Davidic Line - received an usurper. Herod would create his own image on a coin - forbidden to be of this level of ego. Herod is King and can do all he wants as King. Instead Herod is busy keeping up with murderous Pilate as Governor. Keeping murderous promises. Pleasing his live in wife. Pleasing his niece. Pleasing alliances and guests. Work of worry - keeping firm hold on his power. Unable to freely speak to the ones he would speak with. It's great to be king?

We have a coin left of Herod Antipas. A tomb.

Jesus is King of Kings.

Scala Sancta the stairs of Herod's Palace where Jesus probably stood. The marble portion is the well known and not doubted stairs of Herod's Palace.

If we could see from the orbit - the Lights of those who believe Jesus in their soul. If we could see the Churches bringing forth Light. We would find the Light of Jesus Christ - alive and with Hope, Faith and Love. Today.

Jesus as King of Kings, God of God - freely has mercy and compassion on His Beloved people. Jesus unable to pass by His Disciples. His Love calls them to have no fear. Jesus travels with them. He changes His plans to participate with His People. Jesus calms even the wind. Herod probably drew no pleasure from his guests to kill John the Baptist. Jesus creates awe and astonishment in His abilities and Love.



One man works at his job to remain in favor with alliances who do not even please him.

The King of King strides even upon the Water with Love.  Light of Light.

One man is pleased with his image stamped on metal.

The King of Kings creates Light to shine eternally - within us for running the race to go to God - inviting us to stay for eternity. The Blessing of God tells us Jesus covers us and we are seen as His Beloved Child.



Abba,

You tell us in Psalm 139, our days are Blessed. We are named from God. We have our days written in Your Book of Life.

With Your Blessing and Your Favor, we have strength to do Your Plan. We have Joy to Hope in Your Path for us. We have Love to be fed and nourished in the most important aspect of us - Love - where Your Holy Spirit and our eternal essence dwells.

We pray this Love, Great Love, blesses those we Love. The People You have given us. We pray more Heaven upon earth. Blessing our families, schools, work places, homes, Churches and Nations. The Love You have for us seen in all our lives. Thank You for Your Word and Plan.

In Jesus. Amen.

Psalm 72 ~ He redeems their life +

Psalm 72

English Standard Version

1 Give the king your justice, O God, and your righteousness to the royal son!

2 May he judge your people with righteousness, and your poor with justice!

3 Let the mountains bear prosperity for the people, and the hills, in righteousness!
4 May he defend the cause of the poor of the people, give deliverance to the children of the needy, and crush the oppressor!

5 May they fear you while the sun endures, and as long as the moon, throughout all generations!
6 May he be like rain that falls on the mown grass, like showers that water the earth! 7
In his days may the righteous flourish, and peace abound, till the moon be no more!

8 May he have dominion from sea to sea, and from the River to the ends of the earth!
9 May desert tribes bow down before him, and his enemies lick the dust!
10 May the kings of Tarshish and of the coastlands render him tribute; may the kings of Sheba and Seba bring gifts! 11 May all kings fall down before him, all nations serve him!

12 For he delivers the needy when he calls, the poor and him who has no helper.
13 He has pity on the weak and the needy, and saves the lives of the needy.
14 From oppression and violence he redeems their life, and precious is their blood in his sight.

15 Long may he live; may gold of Sheba be given to him!
May prayer be made for him continually, and blessings invoked for him all the day!

16 May there be abundance of grain in the land; on the tops of the mountains may it wave; may its fruit be like Lebanon; and may people blossom in the cities like the grass of the field!

17 May his name endure forever, his fame continue as long as the sun!
May people be blessed in him, all nations call him blessed!

18 Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who alone does wondrous things.

19 Blessed be his glorious name forever; may the whole earth be filled with his glory!
Amen and Amen! 20 The prayers of David, the son of Jesse, are ended.

Games people play at parties - 10,000 Questions.

Have you ever met someone famous? I've met about 11 Famous People. One of them is Reverend J.I. Packer in January 2008 in Dallas. He is actually the only famous Evangelical person I've met. (Other than an Archbishop - we very, very casually debated Divorce and growing up as children of a divorced mother in a Church Vestibule.)




And then there is serious, serious Life:

Rev. and Professor J.I. Packer was born in the Roaring Twenties in England. At the age of 92, is best known as General Editor of the English Standard Version, an Evangelical revision of the Revised Standard Version of the Bible, and Theological Editor of the Study Bible version.

The Intent of the English Standard Version - following an "essentially literal" translation philosophy while taking into account differences of grammar, syntax, and idiom between current literary English and the original languages.

Today, Rev. Prof. J.I Packer is best known as advocate of ecumenicism. He was awarded the St. Cuthbert's Cross, June 2014 for his "unparalleled contribution to global Christianity." Packer has roots in Calvinism, and wants to unite Catholics and evangelicals. He was defrocked by the Episcopal Church (losing his pension) in his late, late, late 80s. This blogger collected a 100 signatures on an artist canvas and was one of the teeming numbers who encouraged Rev. Packer believing the Word of God is a reward of God Himself.

Rev. Prof. J.I. Packer was born in the U.K., was a student of Oxford Don C.S. Lewis (67 books with the Narnia Series) and is Canadian today.


We have many, many, many Bible translations today. Given the insistence of the Roman Emperors, for 309 years - beginning 16 years after the death and Life of Jesus - trying to eradicate the Bible in your hand today - our Bible is safely here today as a Wonder and Act of God Himself.

We have many Bible translations. Not many Bible translators have faced venerable careers as Clergy with Theology Tenure, to face becoming publicly debated with senectitude defrockment. It's extremely tragic to see such commendable work and find someone so dedicated to the service of Jesus and His Word - almost 90 years old - defrocked at retirement time for believing the Bible. This is a work of God and accompanied by signs of the world.  Rev. Prof. J.I. Packard was awarded the St. Cuthbert's Cross, June 2014 by Archbishop Duncan for his "unparalleled contribution to global Christianity" after being defrocked in the Episcopal Church.  Blessings of God for us all, today, we still have amazing and beautiful Christians believing the Bible as literal and holy.

With the Good News of God - Rev. Prof. J.I. Packer has endured and triumphed. Something all of Jesus' Beloved celebrate. And many, many fine books, such as "Never Beyond Hope: How God Touches and Uses Imperfect People with Carolyn Nystrom."




Keep on with God. Father God has a Way, Truth and Life. Bringing us through all seasons. The enduring, reliable, necessary Love of God our Father and Jesus Christ living in us as His Holy Spirit.


Abba,

In another Gifted Year of Life - we plan for Good News. Faith, Hope and Love.

We plan for difficulties and endurance to Hope, Faith and Love.

Daniel 6:26

I make a decree, that in all my royal dominion people are to tremble and fear before
the God of Daniel, for he is the living God,
enduring forever;
his kingdom shall never be destroyed, and his dominion shall be to the end.


2 Thessalonians 1

In God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: 2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

3 We ought always to give thanks to God for you, brothers, as is right, because your faith is growing abundantly, and the love of every one of you for one another is increasing. 4 Therefore we ourselves boast about you in the churches of God for your steadfastness and faith in all your persecutions and in the afflictions that you are enduring.

5 This is evidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be considered worthy of the kingdom of God.


Romans 5

3 Not only that, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4 perseverance, character; and character, hope. 5 And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out His love into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, whom He has given us.

The Blessing You have shown us. Trouble and still, in the Power of Jesus, overcoming. Enduring Hope. Enduring Faith. Enduring Love.

In the Blessing we would always ask in Jesus. An increase of the Holy Spirit in ourselves, the ones we Love, the people You have given us. The fulfillment of Your Word and the works You would have us walk in.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

Amen and Amen and Amen in Jesus.

1 Timothy 3:14-16 ~ household of God, which is the Church of the Living God

The Lambs of God Love Him. Draw close to Jesus.

1 Timothy 3:14-16

I hope to come to you soon,
but I am writing these instructions to you so that, if I am delayed,
you may know how one ought to behave
in the household of God,
which is the church of the living God,
the pillar and bulwark of the truth.

Without any doubt, the mystery of our religion is great:

He was revealed in flesh,
vindicated in spirit,
seen by angels,
proclaimed among Gentiles,
believed in throughout the world,
taken up in glory

~He was revealed in the flesh

Remember His answered prayer to you. Miracles are very quiet. Faith is internal.

John 1:14
And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father,
full of grace and truth.

~vindicated in the spirit

John 1:-17
John bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, “This was He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me is preferred before me, for He was before me.’” And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.


Life is always Changing. The Pew Reports show amazing new trends for life in the USA this year.


We know when we are saved. We know what we know that we know.  Vindicated in the Spirit of Father God in Jesus. The Holy Spirit living in us.

Jesus returned to life - Triumphant and what He wanted was His Disciples as they truly are. Acts 1 assures us of His Family - together again - with His Disciples. This is the Good Pleasure of  God's Son Triumphant - our Jesus.

 



~seen by angels

Luke 2:8-14

 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men."

Almost all of the United States - believes in Angels.  We are aware of His Holy Kingdom. The New Covenant is seen in the polling of Angelic Belief and Prayer.

~proclaimed among Gentiles

Matthew 28:18-20
Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

The Pew Report shows dramatic changes in home structures in the family ages.  The Church going age is now living with the younger generations in their families. The Church has new open door needs to encourage all ages in families to come to God's House.

  

In 2001, The newspapers told us 2/3rd's of the world professed Christ as Lord. The Highest percentage ever. Christianity was on a new high. And then we were told the Muslim births proved to be moving faster than Christian births. But the Pew Report shows the births are  only 4% higher in Muslim births.  We need to be in firm belief of the truth. Fully informed.  Not just fed bad news and told this is the truth. To believe and proclaim Good News.




~believed in throughout the world

83% of the polled people, according to the Pew Report - pray and believe God is interested in their prayer conversations and will answer. We need to encourage faith. Not say something about the poll is incorrect. Find Encouragement. Believe. 2/3rd's of all college graduate marriages will be "until death we do part." Amazing. And not spoken of regularly. Support marriage, families and education. Support the Navy - their marriages are 70% Divorce Rates. They need support.

Babies born in marriage - on the rise. Births Outside of Marriage Decline for Immigrant Women. Long-term growth in total U.S. births driven by the foreign born, who account for 23% of all babies.

For First Time in Modern Era, Living With Parents Edges Out Other Living Arrangements for 18- to 34-Year-Olds. The older generation is not as spurned. This is the youth living with the Church attendance age. Millennials are the United States’ largest living generation. One in three live with a parent. A record number of Americans (nearly 61 million in 2014) were living in multigenerational households. Loans for home purchase are down substantially. Family is on the increase and changing.

As our population is not increasing, Immigrants are driving overall workforce growth in the U.S.


Time for us to learn to be Encouragers. At home. In all our words.


Hebrews 11:6

Without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.

Speak Life. Speak Love. Speak Faith. Speak Hope. Be known as people who believe and encourage because we Love Jesus. Jesus tells us in John 14, 15 and 16 Genesis 1 and 2 - the goodness of God's creation - exists today. Approach speaking with a zeal for Good News. Speak Truth.


Philippians 2
2 So if there is any encouragement in Christ,
any comfort from love,
any participation in the Spirit,
any affection and sympathy,
2 complete my joy by being of the same mind,
having the same love,
being in full accord and of one mind.





Revelation 21:23-26

The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it,

For the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp.

The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their splendor into it.

On no day will its gates ever be shut, for there will be no night there.

The glory and honor of the nations will be brought into it

Ezekiel 43:2

 I saw the glory of the God of Israel coming from the east.
His voice was like the roar of rushing waters, and the land was radiant with his glory.

~ taken up in glory

Revelation 21:1-4

Then I saw "a new heaven and a new earth," for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband.

And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Look! God's dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God.

4 'He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death' or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away."

Revelation 18:1
After this I saw another angel coming down from heaven. He had great authority, and the earth was illuminated by his splendor.

Revelation 21:25

On no day will its gates ever be shut, for there will be no night there.

Revelation 21:11

It shone with the glory of God, and its brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal.

Revelation 22:1

Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb

We cannot know Heaven - only glimpses. Yet our Father GOD created Heaven and Earth. Man only lives by His Word and His Word shapes our wonder.

Without any doubt, the mystery of our religion is great:

He was revealed in flesh,
vindicated in spirit,
seen by angels,
proclaimed among Gentiles,
believed in throughout the world,
taken up in glory



Thank You, Father GOD, Blessed Lord Jesus.
Bless us this Year 2018, Year of God with us.
We are the People of God's New Covenant.
Jesus has told us Love Conquers all.
We will Believe Father God and are blessed.

2 Thessalonians 1:9b-12 ~ because you believed Our testimony to you

2 Thessalonians 1:9b-12

The presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might 10 on the day he comes to be glorified in his holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed.

This includes you, because you believed our testimony to you. 11 With this in mind, we constantly pray for you, that our God may make you worthy of his calling, and that by his power he may bring to fruition your every desire for goodness and your every deed prompted by faith.

12 We pray this so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.





And we are on the cusp of a New Year. Few of us will not wonder what the New Year holds.


There is One who has Plans. God. And not one of us who is not part of the Plans of God. There is One of us who knows of this year and will, obviously, have all of His Plans come to fruition.



New Years. New plans.
A realistic plan for winning. A realistic plan for overcoming. The Scriptures have an entire book on Wisdom.  With 31 Chapters. Skiers have plans to get down the mountain for the thrill and there is a plan to get back to the top of the mountain.



Going with the winter weather -  then  - we will call this - the Bear Hunt of Life - and need - very much - His Help. And our gratitude for His help. We will need to do our words, our deeds with Love. Which is great. Valentines is next. Everything with Love. Wonderful.. Particularly in theory.

However, in Real Bear Hunts - there is frozen tundra, hunters, starvation, isolation and deep napping. Over abundance. Under abundance. We know alligators and the old problems with swamps. Therefore with bears, we'd have to say - berries and rifles. Cows and ranchers. Salmon and other bears. And given any particular day with grumpy bears, berries and rifles, cows and ranchers, caves with other bears and bears with territories - we might find being a bear leaves us feeling we are not as smart as the average bear. We might suddenly come to the realization - even if we have all the berries with no rifles. No cows and no ranchers. All the salmon we'd ever want, on a day where the sunshine never ends. A happy cave we love every day - we might come to realize - it's all clanging gong without Love.

What will we do the day we feel without the fuel of Love? Too much buckshot. On the days we just feel chilly? With mankind, as in Human Employment, we could feel fear of burn out. Or we could sit and have fear our goodness has fled and God Himself has no need for us.

New beginnings can be enormously appealing - and then - have the threat of burn out.

Jeremiah 17:5
Thus says the Lord: “Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart turns away from the Lord."

Now that is ominous to me and, probably, to all who have that day / we grit our teeth all day.

With the deep and abiding Love God has - we can take the days where  the dog bites, when the bee stings, when I'm feeling sad and trust the Lord God even in emptiness. We can call to Abba and say, "Sorry. Empty. All Empty. Sorry."



Romans 12:2
Testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

The Testing - might have test taking anxiety. We have failed what is good and acceptable and perfect - in the eyes of man and of God Himself.

When we are outside the will of God, we can sit and tell the Lord Father God. We can present our failings. And in this honest conversation with God - find He has not left us. He is not sitting comfortably to pull the go to hell lever. The Creator of All Things.

The Will of God?

John 3:16
For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Can we leap all the hurdles and say God loves the world - hurray - on these bear eat bear days?


Hebrews 1:3
Jesus is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature,
and he upholds the universe by the word of his power.

After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.


That is Good News. We need purification for sins when we say hurray - save the world - what about me?

And this is exactly - what we need with Father God. Approaching Him - as if He - is always - approachable. Jesus does this for us - personally. Jesus frequently let the world wait. Jesus had the multitudes of thousands - all of Capernaum - immediately followed Jesus. Jesus frequently told the world to wait. Jesus took the deaf man privately.

Matthew 7
32 And they brought to him a man who was deaf and had a speech impediment, and they begged him to lay his hand on him. 33 And taking him aside from the crowd privately, he put his fingers into his ears, and after spitting touched his tongue. 34 And looking up to heaven, he sighed and said to him, “Ephphatha,” that is, “Be opened.” 35 And his ears were opened, his tongue was released, and he spoke plainly.

We are deaf when we think Jesus abolished the Law to not bring us the Liberty of His Love. We are deaf to God's Love to not see Jesus brings us His love - personally.

We know Jesus crossed the Sea of Galilee 3 times in one day - looking for one person. We can know Jesus would put aside all the earth - and be able - in the Power of the Holy Spirit - to hear me and hear you - personally. Jesus helped Jairus, his wife and daughter and the world waited outside.

And knowing Jesus is the exact nature of God - - -


John 3:16
For God so loved YOU that He gave His one and only Son, that YOU who believes in Him - shall not perish - but have eternal life.



Abba,

You have invited me - personally - to accept all of Your Promises to me. All Your Blessings. I accept with all my heart.

Because Jesus has died for me - has accepted me willing - covered all my sins and weaknesses - You Love me as Your Beloved Child.

And in the Confidence I have in Jesus - I will tell You my heart.


Please convince those I love - how much You Love them. And in all Your Goodness as God - my soul, heart and mind will have the pleasure to see this Love full circle. I trust You.

And carry Your Love forward. I believe Your Love and Light overcomes darkness. I believe when this not clear - You will work all things to the Good of those who Love You.

Jesus the Lord, thank You. Abba, I am Your's in Jesus. Amen.
