1

explaining the fight between Soldier Goliath, found archaeologically correct procedure in the city of Gath of Goliath, against the boy David, a Shepherd.

Timothy 2 

In a large house there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some are for noble purposes and some for disposal of refuse.

 21 Those who cleanse themselves from the latter will be instruments for noble purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do any good work.

Didn't we always think this was similar in our hearts, Yes!

Psalm 37

Of David.

Do not fret because of those who are evil

    or be envious of those who do wrong;

2 for like the grass they will soon wither,

    like green plants they will soon die away.

Shiloh - the city of King Saul

3 Trust in the Lord and do good;

    dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.

4 Take delight in the Lord,

    and he will give you the desires of your heart.

David's Jerusalem - the first time since the Exodus

the Tribe of Judah filled their land allotment, with God and David's help.

 Commit your way to the Lord;

    trust in Him and He will do this:

6 He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn,

    your vindication like the noonday sun

David's Palace outside the City Walls of Jerusalem

7 Be still before the Lord

    and wait patiently for him;

do not fret when people succeed in their ways,

    when they carry out their wicked schemes.

The Cave geographically of David watching Saul sleep in the cave.

8 Refrain from anger and turn from wrath;

    do not fret—it leads only to evil.

9 For those who are evil will be destroyed,

    but those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land.

Zitlag,  Ditch where David's family was living and kidnapped. 

David's band of mercenaries threatened to kill David if their families were not saved.

A little while, and the wicked will be no more;

    though you look for them, they will not be found.

11 But the meek will inherit the land

    and enjoy peace and prosperity.

Jerusalem during King David's Life

Amos 9:11

"In that day I will restore David's fallen shelter ~~ I will repair its broken walls and restore its ruins ~ and rebuild it as it used to be.

Ivory Eating Utensils found in David's Palace

12 The wicked plot against the righteous

    and gnash their teeth at them;

13 but the Lord laughs at the wicked,

    for He knows their day is coming.

Column of David's Palace

14 The wicked draw the sword

    and bend the bow

to bring down the poor and needy,

    to slay those whose ways are upright.

15 But their swords will pierce their own hearts,

    and their bows will be broken.

16 Better the little that the righteous have

    than the wealth of many wicked;

17 for the power of the wicked will be broken,

    but the Lord upholds the righteous.

18 The blameless spend their days under the Lord’s care,

    and their inheritance 

will endure forever.

Psalm 35:26-28 ~ Great is the Lord †† †

Psalm 35:26-28

Great is the Lord

Psalm of David

Let them be put to shame and disappointed altogether who rejoice at my calamity! 

Let them be clothed with shame and dishonor who magnify themselves against me! 

 27 Let those who delight in my righteousness 

 shout for joy and be glad and say evermore, 

“Great is the Lord, who delights in the welfare of his servant!” 

28 Then my tongue shall tell of Your righteousness 

 and of 

Your praise all the day long.

Lessons in Happiness. In Reality.

John 8:31-32

So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed Him, "If you abide in My Word, you are truly my disciples and you will know the Truth and the Truth will set you free."

Clearly the Prodigal Parent is Parable of Father God. With an underscore on the deepest cut to the heart, the people who know you best. And includes examples of Parenting.

The truth is even Mary and Joseph failed as parents in critical times.

Proverbs 8 says God looks into the heart of mankind and delights. John 1 says mankind has the Light of Christ. Mostly people are trying their best with limited ideas and resources.

Forgiveness.

The Government does studies on Brain Damage, which probably could include some types of Terminal Illnesses in parents. And the Study says young adults run off to avoid seeing pain, aging, need and loss of freedom. The Government Study says if we forgive, we will see a total healing. Social studies meet the Scriptures!

There are different styles of Parenting. 

Some Parents are absolutely great. Some Helicopter. Parents do trust their children well. Other parents trust too much. Some apparently care and don't really.  Then you meet the plots of the Chilly People. This chilly group doesn't want to be known as chilly, unloving or usurer; therefore the words are all appropriate. With Sunday School Lessons trotted out of heart and behavior repair, or lessons given to the failure child who possibly might have a hope, glimmer, sadly might improve one day. Or the variation on the length of repair lessons. The tone of the repairs can include, such a disappointment.

In Basketball, the hips show the direction of the ball.

Calamity has a way of revealing hearts. Calamity magnified is part of this.  Hearts are revealed in the Level of Hope and Love the Heart has been stretched to hold.

Victory has a way of revealing hearts. Victory magnified is part of this: the direction of the Heart. What Level of Hope and Love the Heart has been stretched to hold.

And we find living in Truth is a joyous thing, when knowledge is Not new. The Joy of the Lord, is our Strength.  To cope, to hope, to have joy, to endure, to prevail, to thrive.

No matter if it is siblings, spouse, parent, boss, authority, co-worker, friend, friend group - to find God Loves Me, God Loves You. We will have the Victory in Joy of the Lord. To believe we are really Children of God. To have the Strength to Hope.  To endure and then thrive.

John 14:1

"Do not let your hearts be troubled. 

You believe in God, believe also in Me."

Rick Warren gave a memorable Sermon on the lies people, in your life, will tell to gain advantage. Rick Warren says find your identity in God and expect the best of people. Dig deep within yourself and have hope to dream and to stand tall. Believe in God. Be so strong, you Love yourself and find strength of heart to be generous and forgive. Looking for goodness, believing to find Goodness.

Ecclesiastes 1:16

16 I said in my heart, “I have acquired great wisdom, surpassing all who were over Jerusalem before me, and my heart has had great experience of wisdom and knowledge.” 17 And I applied my heart to know wisdom and to know madness and folly. I perceived that this also is but a striving after wind.

18 For in much wisdom is much vexation,

and he who increases knowledge increases sorrow.

Romans 1:18

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth.

John 14:6

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. 

No one comes to the Father except through me."

Ephesians 4:15

Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ.

John 17:17

Sanctify them in the truth, Your Word is Truth.

What's upbeat?   HOPE, LOVE, FUTURE. GOD!!!

God says trouble in life will always find us. And we can do all things in the Strength of God with us. What's upbeat?  Living in the Truth.

Proverbs 4

1 Listen, my sons, to a father's instruction; pay attention and gain understanding.

2 I give you sound learning, so do not forsake my teaching.

3 For I too was a son to my father, still tender, and cherished by my mother.

4 Then he taught me, and he said to me, "Take hold of my words with all your heart; keep my commands, and you will live."

5 Get wisdom, get understanding; do not forget my words or turn away from them.6 Do not forsake wisdom, and she will protect you; love her, and she will watch over you. 7 The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom. Though it cost all you have, get understanding.8 Cherish her, and she will exalt you; embrace her, and she will honor you. 9 "She will give you a garland to grace your head and present you with a glorious crown."

We need the Garland of Grace when the wild winds of life howls. To live the straight path, is to find the Strength. The Glorious Crown is wisdom, the Eternal Life is real.

Proverbs 18:21 

The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit.

The Prodigal Son told his father, he wanted to leave. The Father let him.

God tells us in the Psalms, be who you are to God. He will listen and understand all of this. He wants You to have a Hope and a Future.

What are you going to do when you want to complain. 

The Psalm is saying God is Your Father. He will Listen to you. You can tell Him who you are. You can complain at mistreatment. God is not a deity to Fear. The Psalms tell us let it all hang out.

God tells me, He tells you. You are Valuable and Loved and Chosen. Part of His Goodness. Value yourself. God tells you, Love Yourself.

The Nature of God tells us to ask for Heaven. The Nature of God is to ask us to Believe He provides Heaven. The Nature of God is there is Daily Bread. The Nature of God is to want to be asked.

Once you believe God. Once You Believe God. You have the Love for Yourself. To give away, to make others stronger.

Jesus will hold you in His Pinions

above the clamor

Abba, Father God,

The Psalms declare we can pray as we are.

Your Heart tells us

To declare Jesus is Holy and pray in His Righteousness.

Ask for more Heaven on earth.

Believe You give Daily Bread.

Ask and Give Forgiveness.

Believe You end trouble and temptation and deliver us safely. Amen.

Believe the Kingdom of God exists,

in the Power of Your Word and Will,

The Glory of God is Real.

When we are tired, You will hold us up.

We worry about circumstance we can't change, You care for us.

When we are Hopeful, we Believe You are working all this for Good.

Your Prayer offers those who are wrong forgiveness

and You offer me forgiveness too.

Help us seek You first in Your Righteousness

and the frayed ends, drooping knees and tired hands

will be renewed in the Joy of the Lord is our Strength.

Jesus God 

You cover the People

You cover this Nation in Your Goodness

Let Justice be in this Covid Brain situation, and have God and Jesus with Justice 

and Mercy.

Bless those in Authority to have Wholeness in God.

You Cover all Nations in Your Good Creation and Salvation in Jesus.

We will place our Trust in You.

And say Jesus to cover all our prayers,

Thanksgiving for Dee and her family healing,

Jesus is the Lord

Peace

Amen
