Psalms 91:14-16 ~ My Salvation

Psalms 91:14-16

Because he has loved Me, therefore I will deliver him;

 I will set him securely on high, 

because he has known My name. 

He will call upon Me, and I will answer him; 

I will be with him in trouble; 

I will rescue him and honor him. 

 With a long life I will satisfy him And let him see My Salvation.

The prayers God answers and those He turns to His Own Plan. 

Abraham prayed to save a town of sinners to have God's Mercy. He even dared to count. Abraham prayed when his son, he forced upon a slave, messed with the Plan of God and this son would have God's favor.

Hannah prayed, when she was the second wife, to a man who had been married longer to another more sarcastic, hateful woman - to be fruitful. 

David prayed for his son, before Solomon, to live. Even as David was told his son would die, David asked for God's Mercy and had the policy of praying with Hope for Life. Hope while Life endures.

Gideon didn't believe God entirely and asked for God to return and prove this prayer again. And so did Abraham and Samson's parents.

Mary asked Jesus to give up His Ministry and come home safely with her and her sons. And this was after seeing Gabriel years earlier.

Jairus went to find Jesus, as Synagogue Worker, to have Jesus heal his daughter who had died. He was so filled with Hope, Jairus allowed hope after being told his child was dead.

The blind men cried on to Jesus when they were told to be quiet.

Jesus told us we'd see Him as an Unrighteous Judge, to continue to pray with Hope. David prayed when his infant son was dying for life. Abraham wasn't righteous enough to ask for Ishmael. Hannah's marriage wasn't modeled after Abraham and Sarah, whew, or Isaac and Rebekah. Modeled more like Jacob's marriages. Not what we hope for our children.

And then we are told with faith, we move the Hand of God. Who was willing to live with us and be Grace upon Grace. The Hand of God.

And we read about the Promises of Faith and Prayer.

Matthew 7:7-11
Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. "For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. "Or what man is there among you who, when his son asks for a loaf, will give him a stone?

Luke 11:9-13
So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. "For everyone who asks, receives; and he who seeks, finds; and to him who knocks, it will be opened. "Now suppose one of you fathers is asked by his son for a fish; he will not give him a snake instead of a fish, will he?

Matthew 21:22
"And all things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive."

John 15:16

Psalms 91:14-16
Because he has loved Me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him securely on high, because he has known My name. "He will call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him and honor him. "With a long life I will satisfy him And let him see My salvation.


Psalms 50:14-15
Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving And pay your vows to the Most High; Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I shall rescue you, and you will honor Me.

Psalms 10:17
O LORD, You have heard the desire of the humble; You will strengthen their heart, You will incline Your ear

Exodus 22:22-23
You shall not afflict any widow or orphan. "If you afflict him at all, and if he does cry out to Me, I will surely hear his cry"

Psalms 102:19-20
For He looked down from His holy height; From heaven the LORD gazed upon the earth, To hear the groaning of the prisoner, To set free those who were doomed to death,

Isaiah 41:17
The afflicted and needy are seeking water, but there is none, And their tongue is parched with thirst; I, the LORD, will answer them Myself, As the God of Israel I will not forsake them.

Zechariah 10:6
I will strengthen the house of Judah, And I will save the house of Joseph, And I will bring them back, Because I have had compassion on them; And they will be as though I had not rejected them, For I am the LORD their God and I will answer them.

Zechariah 13:8-9
It will come about in all the land," Declares the LORD, "That two parts in it will be cut off and perish; But the third will be left in it. "And I will bring the third part through the fire, Refine them as silver is refined, And test them as gold is tested They will call on My name, And I will answer them; I will say, 'They are My people,' And they will say, 'The LORD is my God.'"

1 John 3:22
and whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do the things that are pleasing in His sight.

Mark 11:24
Therefore I say to you, all things for which you pray and ask, believe that you have received them, and they will be granted you.

1 John 5:14
This is the confidence which we have before Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.

Matthew 18:19
Again I say to you, that if two of you agree on earth about anything that they may ask, it shall be done for them by My Father who is in heaven.

Jesus is the door or gate of the Sheep.

Shushan, Eastern, Sheep, Beautiful Gate for the Messiah

We will be like Jesus and go with our prayer conversations with Abba, Father, exactly in the forthright manner the Saints of the Bible called on Abba. The Lord's Prayer says His Will be done. 

And considering the active prayer life of so many, and the honesty of the Scriptures, we will let Father God have our trust. Knowing the Word of God is Love, Encouragement and True. The Way will go forth with Hope and in His Future.

Abba, Father God,

John 15

 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful. 3 You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. 4

 Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain

 in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.

5 “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. 7 If you remain in me and my words remain in you, 

ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. 

8 This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.

9 “As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. 

Now remain in my love. 

10 If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, 

just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love. 

11 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. 

12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. 

13 Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. 14 You are my friends if you do what I command. 15 I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, 

for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. 

16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you. 17 This is my command: Love each other. 

To live in Your Grace and Mercy

Knowing to put down the worries that were pointless and fruitless in the past.

In Jesus Christ, to have Your Grace and go forth. Forgiven of old worries.

To press on to Seek You First.

To daily include and invite, You, to dwell in me.

And in those I love, the people God has given me.

And be grateful.

To forgive those who have given Judgement, as I have judged. 

To be wiser, to rejoice.

Rejoice in faith, hope and Love and not be tossed by my doubts

and not tossed by doubts of others.

Hold tightly to Jesus Christ daily.

To be Blessed to ask more Heaven on earth.

To find more Heaven on earth.

Be more Heaven on earth.

To pray for good health for us all

As we pray for all of us in Covid, with our concerns 

and the worries of others. So many people have allergies, colds,

coughs and sneezing without Covid. RSV. 

Believing, this is sympathy of the world for 

one another.

The Lord Jesus as we remember Prophetic miracles.

The hopes we put in knowing of Miracles of Yours

and Prayer moving Your hand.

We pray for those who are ill

and asked for prayer. Covering them

in the Willingness of Jesus.

Keep us in Jesus,

This Republic, the people of the Republic.

 The world needing kindness and a hope

of peace from this hugely stressful season.

This will turn out well,

we have read the Last Page of the Bible and this ends well.

Our Governors and Legislatures for help and wisdom.

Giving Thanks to those keeping Mercy and Justice.

Let's agree in prayer, Pandemic

causes willy-nilly barbarism brain thoughts that end.

And we pray Jesus for go faster, please.

He understands. 

We arrive in prayer just as we really are.

Keeping the joyful thought of Eighty percent of

people pray. And not worrying too much about this poll

or that poll. God forgives the sin of our youth, and

knowing the Church has always welcomed

those of years in the pews for a long time.

God doesn't worry too much about the people who Pray.

His Love is flowing, now, for us

and the people who will come to a prayer and faith life.

His Mercy Renews Daily.

Thank God,

Thank God,

Thank Jesus.

Amen with prayer in Jesus

and Your Righteousness.

Please Availeth this one much.

Amen.

Hebrews 13 ~ Let Brotherly Love Continue

 

Hebrews 13

1 Let brotherly love continue. 

The Word of God records the fellowship of the Disciples and the Family of Jesus Continues.


2 Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. 

Paul certainly records with Luke that angel visitations happened.  Even in Prison, Jesus was there to lead, comfort and guide and heal.



3 Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them, and those who are mistreated, since you also are in the body.

4 Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous. 

Peter was not un-married, nor did Jesus ever ask him to be single. The men and sisters-in-law of Jesus all traveled to bring the Good News.



5 Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” 6 So we can confidently say,
“The Lord is my helper;
I will not fear;
what can man do to me?” 

Jesus was seen to be the Love and the Promises. The Word of Life.




7 Remember your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God. Consider the outcome of their way of life, and imitate their faith. 8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. 

Paul wanted Governor Felix to know Jesus. Felix was to suffer the loss of his family when Pompeii was destroyed. Paul's gift of Jesus is lasting.



9 Do not be led away by diverse and strange teachings, for it is good for the heart to be strengthened by grace, not by foods, which have not benefited those devoted to them. 10 We have an altar from which those who serve the tent have no right to eat. 

The least popular teaching of Jesus was to eat His Body and drink His Blood. Today we rely upon the Grace of Jesus in Communion. His Disciples bravely continued in what Jesus had told them to teach.




11 For the bodies of those animals whose blood is brought into the holy places by the high priest as a sacrifice for sin are burned outside the camp. 12 So Jesus also suffered outside the gate in order to sanctify the people through his own blood. 13 Therefore let us go to him outside the camp and bear the reproach he endured. 

Jesus changes lives. The men hid and then with multitudes, praised the Eternal Victory of Jesus.




14 For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come. 

The House of Jesus has many rooms.




15 Through him then let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name. 16 Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God. 

Thank You, Father God for the Love Jesus has for us today.






17 Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they are keeping watch over your souls, as those who will have to give an account. Let them do this with joy and not with groaning, for that would be of no advantage to you.

Beloved, let us love one another for Love is of God. This is the Commandment of Jesus.






18 Pray for us, for we are sure that we have a clear conscience, desiring to act honorably in all things. 19 I urge you the more earnestly to do this in order that I may be restored to you the sooner.

Father, help us to live the way, the truth, the Life Jesus wants for us. Amen.




20 Now may the God of peace who brought again from the dead 
our Lord Jesus, 
the great shepherd of the sheep,
by the blood of the eternal covenant, 
21 equip you with everything good that you may do his will, 
working in us [you] that which is pleasing in his sight,
 through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.


2 Corinthians 1:20
For no matter how many promises God has made, they are "Yes" in Christ. And so through him the "Amen" is spoken by us to the glory of God.



22 I appeal to you, brothers, [brothers and sisters] hear with my word of exhortation, for I have written to you briefly. 23 You should know that our brother Timothy has been released, with whom I shall see you if he comes soon.

24 Greet all your leaders and all the saints. Those who come from Italy send you greetings. 25 Grace be with all of you.



Amazing things … Paul believed and wrote about. His promises were all complete even after Jesus Christ returned to Heaven. Paul believes the same things that happened to Abraham 2-3,000 years ago,  still occurs.


Some of the most important points in this chapter - the promises of God toward those who have preached the Good News. Paul is saying we can recall God has rewarded those individuals who have believed, lived and preached the good news. And in my life, I can say I do remember the reward of those who have believed. Sometimes seriously unhappy things have occurred to those preaching the Good News, but not permanent things to eternity. Just as Hebrews tell us, they have not been permanently flattened:



Hebrews 11:32-40

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.



2 Timothy 1:7
For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.


Proverbs 24:16
for though a righteous man falls seven times, he rises again,
but the wicked are brought down by calamity.


Revelations 3:5
He who overcomes will, like them, be dressed in white. I will never blot out his name from the book of life, but will acknowledge his name before my Father and his angels.


We are correct to pray for each other and our spiritual leaders. May Father God equip you with everything good that you may do his will, working in us [you] that which is pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.

Father GOD,

I would love to feel not dizzy ever again from my ears or my eyesight. That would be lovely.

Bless us to have a Life of the Fruit of Your Holy Spirit that we will please You Father and find the Joy that was Yours so well. Dwell in us, please and help us in seeking You first, to find Your Blessings each day. Help us to finish well.

We pray for this Nation in Jesus and His Good Creation.  Amen.

Matthew 2:16-18 ~ Comforted

 

Reprint chosen randomly, original Post on 12/31/2014

Matthew 2:16-18

16 Then Herod, when he saw that he had been tricked by the wise men, became furious, and he sent and killed all the male children in Bethlehem and in all that region who were two years old or under, according to the time that he had ascertained from the wise men. 17 Then was fulfilled what was spoken by the prophet Jeremiah:

18 “A voice was heard in Ramah,
weeping and loud lamentation,
Rachel weeping for her children;
she refused to be comforted, because they are no more.”

Scripture points out the reoccurrence of hearts.

The tomb of Rachel, “in the way to Ephrath, which is Bethlehem” (Genesis 35:19), had been, probably from the day when the “pillar” which marked it was first set up, one of the sacred places of the land because Rachel is considered a spiritual mother for the Jews. I read today a scathing reply of the Messianic prophecies as being too wobbly to be believed - Matthew 2:18. Jeremiah 31:15 - being very unreliable. Really Rama belonged at one time to Benjamin.

Jesus went to the Samaritans in the fourth chapter in John's Gospel to tell for the first time plainly that He is the Messiah. 

And just as Rachel and Benjamin were parted as well as Jacob - this is a reminder. 

This is God, years later, reclaiming the remnant Samaritan Jews thrown out in the Reclamation of Jerusalem after 70 years of captivity in Babylon.

Jacob felt Rachel's death was the most difficult thing in life to bear. And Jesus is born where Rachel died. God did not just weep for Lazarus. God had aspects of life He would draw forth again to heal. 

Just as Jesus spoke of the prophet Jonah, we do not know his fate - his salvation led on the help for Israel in Babylon and then Assyria. Emperor Nebuchadnezzar and the way of discovery the Babylonian Empire wanted to know more about the God of Daniel. Daniel in Daniel 1 was renamed as Belteshazzar, with Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. The fruit of the work of God through Jonah. The slaves were giving prominent homes to meet in for Sabbath Worship of their God. And Ezekiel was given his own house by the river to have peace enough to hear again and again from God.

Father God does not require that we work and work and work. Jesus is there for those who seek Him. He promises Ask and He will be found.

Ezekiel 34 - God is concerned with this life. And our welfare.

Ezekiel 34

23-24 “‘I’ll appoint one shepherd over them all: my servant David. He’ll feed them. He’ll be their shepherd. And I, God, will be their God. My servant David will be their prince. I, God, have spoken.

25-27 “‘I’ll make a covenant of peace with them. I’ll banish fierce animals from the country so the sheep can live safely in the wilderness and sleep in the forest. I’ll make them and everything around my hill a blessing. I’ll send down plenty of rain in season—showers of blessing! The trees in the orchards will bear fruit, the ground will produce, they’ll feel content and safe on their land, and they’ll realize that I am God when I break them out of their slavery and rescue them from their slave masters.

28-29 “‘No longer will they be exploited by outsiders and ravaged by fierce beasts. They’ll live safe and sound, fearless and free. I’ll give them rich gardens, lavish in vegetables—no more living half-starved, no longer taunted by outsiders.

30-31 “‘They’ll know, beyond doubting, 

that I, God, am their God, that I’m with them 

and that they, the people Israel, are my people. 

Decree of God, the Master:

You are my dear flock,

the flock of my pasture, my human flock,

And I am your God.

Decree of God, the Master.’”

God is concerned with our heart. Our earnest heart. 

When Tyre looted the ruined Jerusalem, glad for its destruction, God felt Tyre's hardness of heart. 

Recently, Baylor University and University of North Caroline uncovered a mosaic of Ezekiel 26. Alexander the Great left the prophetic Tyre,  visited the Temple to bow to the representative of God. Because Alexander the Great found prophecy of God in His Word after making Tyre into mainland in a tremendous military campaign to reach the Island of Tyre. 

Tyre- Her ships were never to be seen again, and the island never recovered. 

Opposite of what  Israel did again and again with the blessing and help of Father God. We learn about resiliency from the faith of Israel and more importantly, the Mercy of God - God is Love.

Abba, Father,

We will all have laments before we depart this life. Of choices we made and of people we loved and lost for various reasons. Jesus knew about this and said:

Luke 8:52

Now they were all weeping and lamenting for her; but He said, "Stop weeping, 

for she has not died, but is asleep."

You tell us this again when Ezekiel's wife died.

Ezekiel 24

Groan quietly; do not mourn for the dead. 

Keep your turban fastened and your sandals on your feet; 

do not cover your mustache and beard 

or eat the customary food of mourners.

Jesus grabs and holds our hearts because He weeps for us and with us. 

This is our Father God of Love. 

He strengthens us to be real and not anything but earnest. 

Providing the hope of real recovery.

We believe with You, Father God, 

You have told us in Thessalonians we are informed, about those who asleep, 

we will not grieve as do the rest who have no hope. 

We believe Jesus died and rose again, even 

and Y

ou will bring with Him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus to eternal life in You.

Abba, Father God,

For Your Steadfast Love

reminding us of the

Blessings we have, we have forgotten to look at,

Thank You.

For the times when worries protrude,

You have the whole world in Your Hands

You have the whole world in Your Hands

and

You Uphold the Universe by Your Very Word.

You know all the Heavenly Host by Name.

And tenderly You hear our cares.

We will look to the future with Hope.

We will put aside all the brash and odd

crazy news of 2020, 2021

and 

take up the mantle of Peace.

Deliberately.

Each Day we are Blessed to ask for more

More Heaven on earth.

More Give us This Day.

More Daily Bread.

The Universe is only upheld

by the 

Power of Your Word.

May The Lord God Almighty

His Son Jesus

surround and uphold us

in This Peace.

The Peace is Upheld by God Himself 

and 

we ask

His Blessing and Favor.

The Lord's Prayer isn't filled with subtitles

or subsections, this doesn't encompass every concern and

ward off all anxieties down the road,

we merely put God's Word

on every aspect of Life

and Trust Him.

Gently, we hand You our Cares

knowing Your Hands hold

this so well.

Tenderly.

And we are Loved and Filled.

Dwell in us

and help us to be Pleasing to You

Dwell in those we Love and Honor

and help us to seek You first

to end well.

In the Highest Name of Jesus Christ

Alleluia
