Joshua 24:15 ~ As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.







At Easter, we found the terrible Pandemic was beginning to slow down. The Peak was coming down pretty quickly. Not coincidentally, Easter is about Life.

This is Pentecost. The week the Disciples found the Holy Spirit gave them Courage. This is 50 days from finding Jesus Christ Lives. It's a cultural day. The people witnessing the Renewal of God's Holy Spirit in His Magnificence, speak different languages and come from differing cultures.

Not coincidentally, this is Pentecost. When decisions are reached about the Holy Spirit.

Joshua 24:15


As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.

Jesus, please.



Within 16 years of the death of Jesus Christ and His Life, Emperor Claudius began to kill Christians for saying Jesus is King and Son of God. From 46 A.D. until 325 A.D. persecution sometimes persisted. From belief and an idea. The amazing fact we have Scriptures in our hand today is the work of faith and of prayer.

The Challenge this Pentecost is to believe The Holy Spirit would be pleased for us to join together as we watch these demonstrations - to pray for God's Spirit to hold them to Him in Love. To change the atmosphere of every soul to realize what is needed is our Father God. To ask God for His Miraculous Holy Spirit.

It's just flat impossible for a Jewish man born out of wedlock in the Suburb of Syria to be Alive Today. There is no way His Church exists 2,000 years later. How would we know? We have the written record of Him telling us this from the first/early second century records of Papyrus 46 held intact by the University of Michigan. 300 Intact Chapters of The Scriptures.

The personal Challenge of this Pentecost is to believe your prayers are heard by Father God for Love and Encouragement of His Holy Spirit. The personal Challenge of Pentecost is to believe your prayers join with others praying for the rioters. For the Police held in crowds during Covid-19. For the unfortunate caught in the path. To pray for the people conned into a riot. To pray for those rioting not to fall desperately ill and create another Hot Spot. Praying for the people who love their communities and want the scar to be healed on the land and on the people.

We will pray Love prevails and not fear.


Romans 5:8
God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Jesus, please.


We witness Horrible Actions. We pray for the Holy Spirit to make Love live in these souls.


Ezekiel 37:5-6
This is what the Sovereign Lord says to these bones: "I will make breath enter you, and you will come to life.  I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you, and you will come to life. 
Then you will know that I am the Lord.’”

Jesus, please.


We see undeserving people with cruel actions.


1 John 4:10
And love consists in this:
not that we loved God, but that He loved us
and sent His Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.

Jesus, please.


We know many, many are praying, don't sink into despair, Hope in God our Father. Hope in Jesus.

Romans 8:31
What then shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

Jesus, please.


When we feel discouraged, we will fight on in the Good Fight to Pray with all Expectation of God's Righteousness. Even if the number of angry people is overwhelming. God knows us all.

Isaiah 40:26

Lift up your eyes on high and see: who created these?
He who brings out their host by number, calling them all by name;
by the greatness of His Might
and because He is strong in power,
not one is missing.

Jesus, please.


We feel sorrow for the Police and the National Guard and pray for their health during Covid-19. We pray for the parents of the rioters and their family and children. We pray for the souls who will have sorrow for their actions today. We pray for God's Love to bring softer hearts and wisdom. We pray for the innocent to be safe. We pray God to fight the Battle.

Jeremiah 4:6
Set up a standard toward Zion: flee for safety, stay not;
for I will bring evil from the north, and a great destruction.

Exodus 14:14
The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still.

Jesus, please.


We pray that as fears increase, we will stay strong. And in strong emotion, have deliberate compassion and prayer. Determination of faith. We will ask Jesus to help us Stand Firm.


Be sure you put your feet in the right place, then stand firm. Abraham Lincoln.

Lincoln Memorial: "In this Temple, as in the Hearts of the People,
for whom he saved the Union
The Memory of Abraham Lincoln
is enshrined forever."


Isaiah 61:8
For I, the LORD, love justice; I hate robbery and iniquity;
in My faithfulness I will give them their recompense 
and make an everlasting covenant with them.

Jesus, please.













2 Chronicles 7:14-17

If my people who are called by my name
humble themselves, and pray and seek my face
and turn from their wicked ways, 
then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin 
and 
heal their land.

15 Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayer 
that is made in this place. 

16 For now I have chosen and consecrated this house that my name may be there forever. 

My eyes and my heart will be there for all time. 
17 And as for you, if you will walk before me as David your father walked, doing according to all that I have commanded you and keeping my statutes and my rules

Jesus, please.


Matthew 15:24
He answered, "I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel."

Romans 1:16 
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, 
for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes

Titus 3:5 
He saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, 
but according to his own mercy, 
by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit

Zephaniah 3:17 
The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing

Jesus, please.


Going to the store, grocery, this early evening, I saw worried people. People wanted to see kind faces. Faces were really being searched in a trying-not-to-look-way. I felt compassion and saw people asking others where to find things and being diligently helped. Strangers laughed with sincerity to help one another and find compassion.

On the way home, a turn only right on to a road was halted. The driver couldn't decide where to go. (Not the freeway, a regular road.) The couple carefully signalled to change lanes several times. It was a younger, mixed race couple. The Couple was worried and distracted and speaking kindly to each other.

Next, we were in a 15 car traffic jam going, 31 mph in a 45 mph Speed Limit. People are concerned everywhere.

May 14 - The UN warns of a global mental health crisis caused by isolation, fear, uncertainty and economic turmoil.



Abba, our Father,

Jesus Christ Himself be with us all.
We know He will be and hear all of our Prayers.
We will diligently keep praying.


We will pray for safety for all.
We will pray for Justice for all oppressed.
We will pray Safety from the Violent.
We will pray Safety for the innocent, thrust into this.

We will pray for Minneapolis, to have this efficiently solved.
Justice for all the oppressed.
Grateful to see a Sit In in Minneapolis. Diligently persist.

We will pray for JAG to investigate Police misconduct.
Never have these riots again.

We will pray for Healing. 
We will pray mankind's Light in Jesus Christ
will shine in small ways until His Love Shines Brightly.

We will give thanks for the wisdom we have heard from Trey Gowdy
and Rudy Giuliani. We will be glad for Bipartisan Encouragement
for the healing of All.

We pray for less sensationalization and more solutions.
We pray for Hope and Encouragement. And Health.

We pray for the evil to cease and for D.C. St. John's  Church on fire.
Thank You, Fire Department Personnel has arrived.
Thank You , Father God, for those making the area safe and putting the fire out.
Thank You, Jesus.

And during this News Coverage one protester jumped in front of the news camera,
signalling with both hands, the deaf sign language for "I love you."

In Philadelphia, looters stopped other looters from harming the reporters.

The reporters were grateful.


Help us to seek You first and Your Kingdom.

We truly want to know we helped You bring more Heaven to earth.

To Live Love, Joy and Peace. Uphold those we Love.

We Trust You.

We ask for the Virus to end! We pray the riots and harm to Stop.

 And, now, we need Your Help.
We need Warp Speed Virus success.

Noon Prayer - Psalm 122






Psalm 122


I was glad when they said unto me, 
Let us go into the house of the Lord.

2 Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem.

3 Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together:

4 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the Lord.

5 For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David.

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.

7 Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces.

8 For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee.

9 Because of the house of the Lord our God I will seek thy good.



Please be sure to listen to The Word of God from His House.

Collectively we might say, "Thank God, it's Sunday!"

I'm thinking, "Good GOD, ya'll, we need Church today."

Jesus be with us all. Amen.

1 Thessalonians 5 ~ Be at peace among yourselves †




1 Thessalonians 5



Be at peace among yourselves.

 And we urge you, brothers, admonish the idle, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with them all.  See that no one repays anyone evil for evil, but always seek to do good to one another and to everyone.  Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

 Do not quench the Spirit.  Do not despise prophecies,  but test everything; hold fast what is good. 

Abstain from every form of evil.

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. 24 He who calls you is faithful; he will surely do it.

Brothers, pray for us.

Greet all the brothers with a holy kiss.

I put you under oath before the Lord to have this letter read to all the brothers.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.








2 Chronicles 7:14

If my people who are called by my name
humble themselves, and pray and seek my face
and turn from their wicked ways, 
then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin 
and 
heal their land.








When you closely observe people, actions define them. Finding Joy in life is to find the focus. Finding the Light of Jesus in people is going to lead to the path of the Holy Spirit. Fruitfulness.

When the Riot started
There was sheer rage. And in typical riots, the criminal element is going to push those taking selfies and having entertainment to do horrendous acts and be caught in being in the wrong place and, perhaps, seriously injured or seriously charged with crimes. (The criminal element is going to throw the lesser criminal to the ground and escape. This is not a team sport.)

By the third night, people had done some deciding and gone home earlier. And parents put teens in cars to be safe, you could tell they'd been told to,"Stay-in-the-car!" Not a bad idea, but daytime is better. In fact, younger ones were earlier, and older ones were late. (So old and so late, we wondered what will happen with Covid-19 to this amount of astonishing lack of self-motivation in health.)

By the fourth night, people are exhausted from hate, yelling, screaming, setting fires and acting up. And so - the crowd was a different age, different race and in a different mood. Frankly, different. In fact, so different trash bins were set on fire. Why? This crowd didn't want to go to Federal Prison for Domestic Terrorism!




This Crowd is Thinking.


So,  we are seeing a real reaction - let's think together:

Rudy Giuliani - Attorney, Major of NYC, and United States Associate Attorney General says looking at this - it's Murder One by Derek Chauvin and Murder charges for the depraved indifference for the 3 other policemen. (He is, frankly, surprised they weren't charged day One.) These 4 Protect and Serve Policemen are "clearly" caught on 2 separate Video phones for the crowd pleading to not murder George Floyd - we are seeing outrage for correctly applied - ineptitude - from Minneapolis.

This set of police in Minneapolis is - inept. They have rogue police officers who aren't afraid to be filmed doing "murder". They do not contain the crowd or inspire the crowd. This police group is not, not, not, not led to do the purpose with efficiency.

Frankly, 4 days of riots asking for Justice - when Justice is the Police purpose, other than "protecting and serving" the people seeing murderous police - is just awful. They need 3 new Officiers reorganizing the Minneapolis Police Department. We need to see Police protecting and serving when we have all seen 2 phone videos of - plain murder. With 4 complicit murderous, guilty, terrible police men led by inept Police led by 3 leading officials of that police department.

We need Solutions and - not - fruitless harm.


Success


Success


Success


Success


It's entirely pointless to endanger yourself.

Power does not come from a husband beating a wife. Power does not come from a wife beating the children. This Nation is a collective Family.  Solutions come from "Praying, Thinking and Proper Conduct."

I know, we can all imagine the scene of someone coming home from endangering the family, as a whole, from Riots and Rioting. You think violence in the street doesn't lead to violence in the HOME? Violence makes more Violence. "Maintain the DOMESTIC TRANQUILITY."

STOP. Do not participate in VIOLENCE.







BE FRUITFUL.

Where Will You Sit?
The Capital. The Police Department. The FBI.

"What's Your Sign?"
Have signs saying what you want. Try to be a teacher and not a reactionist. Lead Change in your life.

Why Not Ask For a New System?

When someone swears to "Protect and Serve", they aren't actually a regular citizen. Why not try them in a Higher Branch Court. The Judge Advocate General's Corps (JAG Corps) is the branch or specialty of a military concerned with military justice and military law. Officers serving in a JAG Corps are typically called Judge Advocates. ... They also serve as prosecutors for the military when conducting courts-martial. JAG law allows a complete and thorough personal History.

Derek Chauvin has been cited 19 times. And this is sealed. Not in JAG Court. His actions are going to be "JUDGED" in JAG Court.

Leavenworth Military Prison typically has much longer sentences. And a policeman is not going to be shanked. Mercy and Justice. Military Court has a tremendous ability and goals for smooth and sincere Justice. Fair and not biased.

The Military is just huge on obedient orders. Rank and file sheer obey.

It appears, to us all, police conduct is in Critical lack of approval. And has a huge reaction nationwide. If we want this to be out of police jurisdiction - ask for a Specific Change. Probably much more effective than spraying rude words on walls.


Abba, Holy God our Father,

Thank God we have You. We need Jesus to be in us all.

Giving us the ability to see Jesus in each other.

And right now, we need to see More Jesus, Please.


Speak Your Healing Word, we will have more Heaven upon earth.


We pray Covid-19 doesn't eat us all up and the Chinese see we act like Rational People.


Help us to see our Blessings and believe You are going to Provide More Willing Blessings.





Help us to seek You first and Your Kingdom.

We need more Heaven, whew we do.

To Live Love, Joy and Peace. Uphold those we Love.

We Trust You.

We ask for the Virus to end! And, now, we probably need Your Help - a lot.


We need Warp Speed Virus, please, Lord.


Less Rioting. Soon we pray.

You are all children of the light and children of the day. 

We do not belong to the night or to the darkness.

So then, let us not be like others, who are asleep, but let us be awake and sober. For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk, get drunk at night.

Since we belong to the day, let us be sober, putting on faith and love as a breastplate, and the hope of salvation as a helmet. For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.
 He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him.

Encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.

We ask you, brothers and sisters, to acknowledge those who work hard among you, who care for you in the Lord and who admonish you. Hold them in the highest regard in love because of their work. Live in peace with each other.

Abba, Holy Father,

Let us Live Your Son Jesus and His Words. Live in me.

Compline, Night Prayer 2 Timothy 1:7 ~ Spirit of Love



Abba, our Good Father,

You have given us a Spirit, not of fear, but of power and love and self-control.

You give us Light in Your Gospel.

Psalm 94:19 
When my anxieties multiply, your comforting calms me down

In Jesus we pray for calm, for us all.

Psalm 107:19-20
“Lord, help!” they cried in their trouble, and he saved them from their distress. He sent out his word and healed them, snatching them from the door of death.

Thank You, Father, for all the people praying. The incredible number of good people asking You for help. Thank You.

Deuteronomy 31:6
Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you.
He will not leave you or forsake you.

Jesus, God's Savior, keep safe our loved ones. Keep us in You, all in You.

Exodus 12:31
Then he summoned Moses and Aaron by night and said, “Up, go out from among my people, both you and the people of Israel; and go, serve the LORD, as you have said."

Father God, we pray for a time of prayer and fasting.(Fasting can be removing a meal or a type of food.) And in this prayer and asking, You will hear our prayer, see our diligence for You and heal us in Your Holy Spirit and Overwhelming Love and Mercy. We ask in Jesus, Amen.

Romans 8:28 ~ Interweave







We have given thanks for children not affected by Covid-19. We have given thanks for lack of violence in protests. And we have found - trouble.

Thanksgiving to God is never wasted. Hope is not only a positive influence on us every moment we can genuinely employ Faith. Historically, we can trust trouble will occur and in the overcoming we find Optimism, Faith and Hope keep us Alive.

Senses versus sensationalism. More is at work than George Floyd. We have heard the complaints during the Pandemic of ridiculous freedoms being entailed. We have seen fights over masks - in a Pandemic! It's not been widely reported about the solutions. I listened last week to one weary in striving to make a living, "Solutions are childish, we need trade offs."

So we really want to hear all of our problems displayed without the hope of a better next month? If we don't focus on what is working and build up our strength, we will Weaken. Ministry is the example of the Posts, the last two days about the wonders of Jesus Christ. His ancestry is flawed. His Disciples lack faith. Circumstances move against Him. And the reply from the Word of God isn't something so sweet we can't hold on to it with rational faith. All things are interweaving:


Romans 8:28
And we know that all things "Interweave" together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.




God tells us, rather unbelievably, we sulk to learn, to focus on God and Love Him. In our rational minds, we wonder if God believes still in lambs and goats and turtledoves being offered. Because there is so much we touch upon and we wonder if God is there. And we find God is wise.

Where are we going to put our focus?

If we look at Pandemic, we find ourselves in fact finding mode. We entrust our senses to finding what is sensational and not find the solutions. Solutions are real. Trade offs are the sacrifices of goodness life requries us to make. To give up hope is applauded as realistic. And alcoholism is 1 in 3 adults. If we are going to applaud a lack of hope - we are going to find ourselves - hopeless.

Realistic. Trouble ends. Applaud the less dramatic solutions.

Realistic. Trouble ends. THANK GOD.

Applaud God our children do not have Covid-19 like Polio.


4 million confirmed cases of COVID-19.

Among 345 children with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 and complete information about underlying conditions, 23% had an underlying condition, with chronic lung disease (including asthma), cardiovascular disease, and immunosuppression most commonly reported.12

Recently, however, reports from Europe and North America have described clusters of children and adolescents requiring admission to intensive care units with a multisystem inflammatory condition with some features similar to those of Kawasaki disease and toxic shock syndrome. Case reports and small series have described a presentation of acute illness accompanied by a hyperinflammatory syndrome, leading to multiorgan failure and shock.13-15 Initial hypotheses are that this syndrome may be related to COVID-19 based on initial laboratory testing showing positive serology in a majority of patients. Children have been treated with anti-inflammatory treatment, including parenteral immunoglobulin and steroids.

It is essential to characterize this syndrome and its risk factors, to understand causality, and describe treatment interventions. It is not yet clear the full spectrum of disease, and whether the geographical distribution in Europe and North America reflects a true pattern,

THANK GOD THE CHILDREN ARE NOT DYING OF COVID 19.


Realistic. Trouble ends. THANK GOD.

I was eight years old and running with a dime in my hand
Into the bus stop to pick up a paper for my old man

In '65 tension was running high at my high school
There was a lot of fights between the black and white
There was nothing you could do
Two cars at a light on a Saturday night in the back seat there was a gun
Words were passed in a shotgun blast
Troubled times had come
To my hometown
My hometown
My hometown
My hometown

Now Main Street's whitewashed windows and vacant stores
Seems like there ain't nobody wants to come down here no more
They're closing down the textile mill across the railroad tracks
Foreman says these jobs are going boys and they ain't coming back
To your hometown
Your hometown
Your hometown
Your hometown

Last night me and Kate we laid in bed
Talking about getting out
Packing up our bags maybe heading south
I'm thirty five we got a boy of our own now
Last night I sat him up behind the wheel and said son take a good look around
This is your hometown.


Jesus Christ worked with His Flawed Family. Jesus Christ believed in the incredibly bumptious Disciples.


We can't dwell in sensationalism. We dwell in God has faith in us and have Hope. Find the Solutions.

We know Minneapolis is on fire at 3 a.m. on Lake Street.

And we know it won't be soon. Because in the riots, we find why God has faith in us. The Light of Jesus Christ is found in mankind even in the damn riots. The man who broke the window at Ace Hardware was photoed, videos taken and reported by the crowd with him. One cheerful quasi-rioter was horrified to learn rocks had been thrown 'at the police', no way. Local news found him finding out. (The other rioter with him was more goat ish.) When Target was looted, one brave bystander stood and took videos of the looters. Knock, Knock. We want the lamps back. Mr Rogers still sees the Helpers. (Can you imagine being the one filming the looting inside Target. Note to self: increase bravery.) PS, Target took a few videos, too.

Anger is one thing. Violence another. 3 A.M Lake Street saw violent people getting away quickly from The National Guard. Thank You, National Guard, for making sure people can dwell in safety through the night and day without fire.



THANK GOD THE DEMONSTRATORS NATIONWIDE,ARE NOT DYING OF COVID 19.

THANK GOD THE DEMONSTRATORS NATIONWIDE, ARE NOT VIOLENT AND BELIEVE SOLUTIONS WILL BE OBTAINED.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR BELIEF AND THE PEACE YOU HAVE SHOWN. NATIONWIDE.



Honor The Peaceful Demonstrators. And include in the ranks of the Peaceful Denomstrators - George Floyd and Ahmaud Arbery. Their families have lost Good Men.

Honor the Solutions we have to Search Diligently to find. Put down Sensationalism.


ASK to see what Paul Harvey called "The Rest of the Story:"


Mayor Simmons, Greenville, MS

Last week, Greenville police officers issued $500 tickets to drive-in church attendees at Temple Baptist Church and threatened the action at King James Baptist Church.

Mayor Simmons said the actions came as a result of Governor Tate Reeves’ statement on a conference call that drive-in services would not work because “people of faith like to fellowship” .


Outlining the steps he and the City Council took as the city sought to follow CDC guidelines and the Governor’s shelter-in-place order, Simmons said faith was at the center of his administration but a “smear campaign” was begun against him and the city, calling it “unacceptable and reprehensible.”

Mayor Simmons said he and his family have had threats on their life following the incidents.

“These incidents have been taken out of context,” Simmons said. “This is not a time to play politics. This is not a time to inflame unprecedented and challenging times with unnecessary attacks and false narratives.”


Mayor Simmons said the city will not be requiring anyone issued a citation to pay the fines.

About scripture-for-today.blogspot.com/

We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He has saved all who call upon His name and rely on Him for His Grace. The Scriptures are living & active and are for understanding the Lord Almighty. 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

A simple blog, scripture-for-today.blogspot

This blog is pretty simple, but for a reason. This blog isn't about agenda or me, it is for the joy and love to found by reading the Scriptures. Ultimately, it is you and the Lord.

The Scriptures are Father God's letter to you. He wanted you to know more, to know He loves you.

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. <><
