John 6:29 ~ Jesus replied, "The work of God is this: To believe in the One He has sent." †

 

Genesis 1:3 

 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.

John 21:25

Now there are also many other things that Jesus did. 

Were every one of them to be written, 

I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books

 that would be written.

John 1:9

The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world.

Isaiah 6:3

And one called to another and said:

 "Holy, Holy, Holy,

is 

The Lord of Hosts,

the whole earth is

Filled with His Glory!"

John 1 

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.

John 1:12

Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in His Name, 

He gave the right to become 

children of God 

John 3:3

Jesus replied, 

"Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God 

without being born again."

John 1:14

The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. 

We have seen His Glory, 

the Glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, 

full of grace and truth.

“I am  in your world.’ said Aslan. ‘But there I have another name. 

You must learn to know me by that name. 

This was the very reason why you were brought to Narnia, 

that by knowing me here for a little, you might know me better there.” 

― C.S. Lewis, The Chronicles of Narnia

“’You would not have called to me unless I had been calling to you,’ said the Lion.” 

—The Silver Chair, CS Lewis

At that moment they heard from behind them a loud noise — a great cracking, deafening noise as if a giant had broken a giant’s plate…. The Stone Table was broken into two pieces by a great crack that ran down it from end to end; and there was no Aslan. 

“Who’s done it?” cried Susan. “What does it mean? Is it more magic?”

 “Yes!” said a great voice from behind their backs. “It is more magic.” 

They looked round. There, shining in the sunrise, larger than they had seen him before, shaking his mane (for it had apparently grown again) stood Aslan himself. 

“Oh, Aslan!” cried both the children, staring up at him, 

almost as much frightened as they were glad

The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, CS Lewis

"Lucy buried her head in his mane to hide from his face. But there must have been magic in his mane. She could feel lion-strength going into her. 

Quite suddenly she sat up. "I'm sorry, Aslan," she said. "I'm ready now." 

"Now you are a lioness," said Aslan. "

And now all Narnia will be renewed. But come. We have no time to lose." 

— C.S. Lewis

“But, first, remember, remember, remember the signs. Say them to yourself when you wake in the morning and when you lie down at night, and when you wake in the middle of the night. And whatever strange things may happen to you, let nothing turn your mind from following the signs.

CS Lewis, The Chronicles of Narnia

Hebrews 4:12

Indeed, the word of God is living and active, 

sharper than any two edged sword, 

piercing until it divides soul from spirit, 

joints from marrow; 

it is able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart

John 6:29

Jesus replied, "The work of God 

is this: 

To believe in the One He has sent."

Imagine the Songs we will know in Heaven. Songs from the Exodus. Songs from the Temple. Songs from the Second Exile in Babylon. Songs sung to rebuild the Temple. Songs from the catacombs in Rome from early Christians, like Peter. Songs of the Dispersion after Jesus rose to Life again. Songs unwritten today

Psalm 33

Sing to Him a new song;

play skillfully on the strings, with loud shouts.

For the word of the Lord is upright,

and all his work is done in faithfulness.

 He loves righteousness and justice;

the earth is full of the steadfast love of the Lord.

 By the Word of the Lord the heavens were made,

and by the breath of his mouth all their host.

Psalm 145:7

They shall pour forth the fame of your abundant goodness and 

shall sing aloud of your righteousness.

Psalm 33

Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord,

the people whom He has chosen as His heritage!

Psalm 147:5

Great is our Lord, and abundant in power; 

His understanding is beyond measure.

Romans 8:32

Will he not also with him graciously give us all things?

Psalm 33

 Let all the earth fear the Lord;

let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him!

 For He spoke, and it came to be;

He commanded, and it stood firm.

1 Peter 1

According to His great mercy, 

He has caused us to be born again to a living hope

 through the resurrection of Jesus Christ 

from the dead, 

4 To an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, 

kept in heaven for you, 

5 who by God's power are being guarded 

through faith 

for a salvation 

Psalm 33

The plans of His heart to all generations.

Isaiah  35

The desert shall rejoice and blossom like the crocus;

2 it shall blossom abundantly

and rejoice with joy and singing.

The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it,

the majesty of Carmel and Sharon.

They shall see the glory of the Lord,

the majesty of our God.

3 Strengthen the weak hands,

and make firm the feeble knees.

4 Say to those who have an anxious heart,

“Be strong; fear not!
Behold, your God
will come"

Isaiah 45:8 

 Shower, O heavens, from above, 

and 

let the clouds rain down righteousness; 

Let the earth open, 

that salvation and righteousness 

may bear fruit;

 Let the earth cause them both to sprout; 

I the LORD have created it.

Acts 2 ~ came together

 

Pentecost

Acts 2

 

 

2 When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. 

2 And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, 
and it filled the entire house where they were sitting.

3 And divided tongues as of fire appeared to them and rested on each one of them. 

 Like the unconsumed bush that drew Moses to speak with God the Almighty.

4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance. [“Xenolalia” or "xenoglossy" the phenomenon when the language being spoken is a natural language previously unknown to the speaker.]


The Holy Spirit is part of Genesis, the First Chapter. The Holy Spirit is displayed throughout all the Scriptures.

 Moses was radiating the Glory of God when he came down from speaking with God.

Just like John described in the First Chapter of Revelation.

With 

This:

and this thought of Fire and of Light of Christ continues through out Scriptures and even today in worship. 

The photos of white are reported Angels of the Lord, when He was called upon in the Highest Name of Jesus during times of need and worship. The purple photo is local.



5 Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men from every nation under heaven. 

6 And at this sound the multitude came together, and they were bewildered, because each one was hearing them speak in his own language. 


This explains halo's. When Jesus was born, visionaries through the millenniums said, "The Star of Bethlehem did not shine upon the Christ child, the Star was the Light shone from Jesus Christ Upward!"

and a halo we think of is this:



and has far more to do with Stephen in the Book of Acts:

Acts 6:15
All who were sitting in the Sanhedrin looked intently at Stephen, and they saw that his face was like the face of an angel.


The Progression of Stephen and the Disciples probably looks like this:

Glenna Goodacre. Victory.

7 And they were amazed and astonished, saying, “Are not all these who are speaking Galileans? 8 And how is it that we hear, each of us in his own native language? 9 Parthians and Medes and Elamites and residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, 10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya belonging to Cyrene, and visitors from Rome, 11 both Jews and proselytes, Cretans and Arabians—we hear them telling in our own tongues the mighty works of God.” 

12 And all were amazed and perplexed, saying to one another, “What does this mean?” 

13 But others mocking said, “They are filled with new wine.”






 

14 But Peter, standing with the eleven, lifted up his voice and addressed them:

“Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and give ear to my words. 15 For these people are not drunk, as you suppose, since it is only the third hour of the day. 16 But this is what was uttered through the prophet Joel:

17“‘And in the last days it shall be, God declares,
that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh,
and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
and your young men shall see visions,
and your old men shall dream dreams;

even on my male servants and female servants
in those days I will pour out my Spirit, and they shall prophesy.

And I will show wonders in the heavens above
and signs on the earth below,
blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke;

the sun shall be turned to darkness
and the moon to blood,
before the day of the Lord comes, the great and magnificent day.

And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.’

 

“Men of Israel, hear these words:
Jesus of Nazareth, a man attested to you by God with mighty works and wonders and signs that God did through him in your midst, as you yourselves know— 23 this Jesus, delivered up according to the definite plan and foreknowledge of God, you crucified and killed by the hands of lawless men.

 24 God raised him up, loosing the pangs of death, because it was not possible for him to be held by it. 


25 For David says concerning him,

“‘I saw the Lord always before me,
for he is at my right hand that I may not be shaken;

therefore my heart was glad, and my tongue rejoiced;
my flesh also will dwell in hope.

For you will not abandon my soul to Hades,
or let your Holy One see corruption.

You have made known to me the paths of life;
you will make me full of gladness with your presence.’



29 “Brothers, I may say to you with confidence about the patriarch David that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day. 30 Being therefore a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him that he would set one of his descendants on his throne, 31 he foresaw and spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that he was not abandoned to Hades, nor did his flesh see corruption. 

32 This Jesus God raised up, and of that we all are witnesses. 33 Being therefore exalted at the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he has poured out this that you yourselves are seeing and hearing. 

34 For David did not ascend into the heavens, but he himself says,
“‘The Lord said to my Lord,
“Sit at my right hand,
until I make your enemies your footstool.”’

Let all the house of Israel therefore know for certain that God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified.”



 

37 Now when they heard this they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?” 

38 And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 

39 For the promise is for you and for your children and for all who are far off, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to Himself.” 

40 And with many other words he bore witness and continued to exhort them, saying, “Save yourselves from this crooked generation.” 41 So those who received his word were baptized, and there were added that day about three thousand souls.

 42 And they devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers

. 43 And awe came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were being done through the apostles. 44 And all who believed were together and had all things in common. 45 And they were selling their possessions and belongings and distributing the proceeds to all, as any had need. 
 

And day by day, attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they received their food with glad and generous hearts

Praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved.

Abba, Father,

Come, Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ. 

Be with those we Love and the People You have given us. 

Comfort, Guide, Lead, Direct, Encourage us 

and all the believers of this Word.

Please Help our Nation and 

the world, You call Your Good Creation,

 to give You the Glory. 

Amen in Jesus.

Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni

We are concerned God is worried.

He is not.

He looks for compassion.

And hears our cries for His Help.

He is Love.

To Love the Lord

is to believe

in His Love,

His Word

and His Promises 

for

Today.

Genesis 12:1-3

Now the Lord said to Abram, “Go from your country and your kindred and your father's house to the land that I will show you. 2 And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. 3 I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.

^{[by you all the families of the earth shall bless themselves].}

Psalm 53:2 

God looks down from heaven on the children of man to see if there are any who understand, who seek after God.

Psalm 14:2  

The LORD looks down from heaven on the children of man, to see if there are any who understand, who seek after God.

Genesis 18:21

I will go down to see if their actions fully justify the outcry that has reached Me. If not, I will find out

John 5:17 

Jesus said, "My Father has never stopped working, 

and this is why I keep on working." 

Isaiah 9:13 

Go and learn what this means: 

‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.’ 

For I came not to call the righteous, 

but sinners.” 

The Mercy of Jesus Christ Upon Us we pray.

 Amen.
