Psalm 28 ~ When I lift up my hands toward Your most Holy Sanctuary

 




Psalm 28



To you, O Lord, I call;
    my rock, be not deaf to me,
lest, if you be silent to me,
    I become like those who go down to the pit.
2 Hear the voice of my pleas for mercy,
    when I cry to you for help,
when I lift up my hands
    toward Your most Holy Sanctuary.

3 Do not drag me off with the wicked,
    with the workers of evil,
who speak peace with their neighbors
    while evil is in their hearts.
4 Give to them according to their work
    and according to the evil of their deeds;
give to them according to the work of their hands;
    render them their due reward.

5 Because they do not regard the works of the Lord
    or the work of His hands,
He will tear them down and build them up no more.

6 Blessed be the Lord!
    For He has heard the voice of my pleas for mercy.
7 The Lord is my strength and my shield

    in Him my heart trusts, and I am helped;
my heart exults,
    and with my song I give thanks to Him.

8 The Lord is the strength of His people;
    He is the saving refuge of His anointed.

9 Oh, save your people and bless Your heritage!
    Be their shepherd and carry them forever.



We all face the Scriptures, understanding each Chapter is about the Christ of God. And we know David wrote at least 73 of the 150 Psalms. The Dead Sea Scrolls contain at least two more Psalms, interesting. David wrote Psalm 29 about 2 Samuel 21, then David wrote Psalm 30 about 2 Samuel 24.  We could pretty well guess, Psalm 28 is from David's life and soul. 

The Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow of Scripture in God's Living Word.

2 Samuel 18 is about David's battle with his son Absalom. David recovers from the loss of an infant and says God's Will is good. When Absalom's decision to take the throne from David by undermining all of David's good faith efforts for his son and then civil war, David is beyond consolation.

We could remember God's reaction to Good Friday.





Unlike Good Friday, the bloodied General Joab bursts in front of grieving David to demand the King behave with gratitude at the win.  If we must, we could say, Joseph of Arimathea demanded of Pilate's wife's dream, the completion of mercy to give Jesus' Body respectful burial.


 

The Family of God. Are the Believers of God.  The Children of God during the Exodus constantly behave like unsure and abused people, doubtful and afraid. And our Father asked from them to Trust Their God.

General Joab demands David not to sanctify his departed son Absalom. Probably, selfishly, for Joab's own actions, placing Joab's life on the line to rescue the Kingdom of Israel. 

Both of these eras saw extreme turbulence. 







We all have families! God knows how many He has seen of our generations. With MERCY!



Chris Stapleton reminds us of the hopes we have in a struggling era.




Charles Wesley said, "God buries His workmen, but carries on His work."

The Psalms remind us of all the Hope and Joy, with worry and Overcoming we can find in this life.
Today is the day. Give us This Day. The Psalms sink down, without any romantic notions of Discipleship. The gory and the Glory.

Matthew 11:28

Then Jesus said, 
“Come to me, all of you who are weary and burdened, 
and I will give you rest."


Romans 10:9
 
If you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, 
and shall believe in your heart 
that God has raised Him from the dead, 
you shall be saved. 




And the Psalms raise us up, to His Glory Today.






Abba, Father, 

Your Living Word, in Jesus Christ, does raise us up, to His Glory Today.

We see the exaggeration of fact used to sway opinion,
let us have Truth
Sincerity
Mercy
Compassion
and find the Benefits 
You Daily Load us with.

Your Power upholds the Universe
help us to live lives of Faith
the Disciples were not fired for their human failings
in Faith and Trust
they were made bold
and found the Joy Jesus tells us is available.

We grow weary.
Jesus finds the Good in us.
We are Helped.
Comforted.

Thank You, Father.

We pray for Turkey and Syria and send relief funds.
Pray for those who are awful, to find
the Lord and heal.

Believe when we see glimpses of
Healing
We will heal.

Praying Allergy Season will be merciful,
my front tooth Crown will repair swiftly.

We pray for all the Struggles worldwide
With peace, food, finances, mercy, wisdom,
Steadfast Love, Redemption,
Renewal,
for our Families,
Loved ones
and His Good Creation.

He Healed Them All.

Thank You, Father,
for Jesus.
Amen.

Ephesians 1:17-23 ~ Not only in this age but also in the One to come

 



Ephesians 1:17-23





The God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of Him, having the eyes of your hearts enlightened


That you may know what is the hope to which He has called you, what are the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints




And what is the immeasurable greatness of His power toward us who believe








According to the working of His great might 
that He worked in Christ 
when He raised Him from the dead 
and 
seated Him at His Right Hand 
in the Heavenly places






Far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come. 

And He put all things under His feet 



And gave Him as Head over all things to the Church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all




Ephesians 1:17-23







Abba, Father 


The love of Christ 

Surpasses knowledge, 
that you may be filled 
with all the fullness 
of God.



He has spoken to us by his Son,
 whom He appointed the heir of all things, 
through Whom also He created the world.


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.






Now to Him 
Who is able to do far more abundantly 
than all that we ask or think, 
according to the power at work within us, 
to Him be glory in the church
 and in Christ Jesus 
throughout 
all 

generations 

forever and ever. 

Amen.

Hebrews 4:15-16 ~ mercy and find grace




Happy Cheerful Sub-Tropical Rain for April Flowers !!!


If you sit and plan your vacation, would you pick 40 years in the not tropical desert? Probably not. And when you read the Exodus - do you think - why do they whine again - what is wrong with them?

Recall with me, Exodus 12:37–38, the Children of Israel numbered "about six hundred thousand men on foot, besides women and children," plus many foreigners  (like Moses' Princess Mother) and livestock. Numbers 1:46 gives a more precise total of 603,550 men aged 20 and up.

We doubt God. He says we do. God says calls our faith this: John 5 - "If you don't believe Moses, how will you believe the Words of Jesus." Paul says Faith is the belief in things unseen. Jesus says God gives mankind "work" to believe.

How will you believe Father God's mercies renew every day - if you don't look? And record and text yourself.




When we read 603,550 men aged 20 and up, we see a nation, but what does Father God see?

If we believe Father God and we are able to see God's opinion.


Hebrews 4:15-16





15 For we do not have a high priest 
who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, 
but we have one who was tempted in every way that we are, yet was without sin. 

16 Let us then approach the throne of grace 
with confidence, 
so that we may receive mercy 
and find grace 
to help us in our time of need. 


Isaiah 55:6,7
Seek you the LORD while he may be found

Ephesians 2:18 
For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.

Ephesians 3:12 
In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.



So in our Prayer Journey, We got past the 12 open Gates of Heaven and the large pearl.



We see the New Jerusalem, so Beautiful to Father God.


We know


We have found the shining water leading to the Throne of God. And we will find the trees of Life.



Following them to the Throne of our Father God.


Father God appears to favor Almond Trees.

And as we follow the path of Living Trees to the Streams of Water...


We will find Abba's Throne surrounded with Emerald Green.

Revelation 4

3 And he who sat there had the appearance of jasper and carnelian, 
and around the throne was a rainbow 
that had the appearance of an emerald.

Where Father God would appreciate the reading of this Psalm.


Psalm 131

O Lord, my heart is not lifted up;
my eyes are not raised too high;
I do not occupy myself with things
too great and too marvelous for me.
2 But I have calmed and quieted my soul,
like a weaned child with its mother;
like a weaned child is my soul within me.

3 O Israel, hope in the Lord
from this time forth and forevermore.





Where we, as a Child of Abba, Almighty God, are welcome at His Throne.



Jacob's Child. Jacob's Children. It is not significant to God - 12 sons 1 daughter -  332 million - 7.8 billion



Isaiah 40:26

Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these? 
He who brings out the starry host one by one 
and calls forth each of them by name. 

Because of His great power and mighty strength, 
not one of them is missing.



God has many, many times in the Exodus called the Nation of Israel "The Children of Israel".

This is our Father in Jesus Christ who inhales prayers and understands fully what His Holy Spirit reveals to Him.

1 Peter 2:10

Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God.




Even more than Israel, a nation of many, many people - this - to Abba is just the Children of Jacob. This is our God, who calls the stars by name because He has named them. To Father God, the many people are just His Children and Children of Jacob - He has called Israel.

So many lists of names. These are not names. These are the Beloved and well known to our Abba.

Into His Loving arms - you are welcome.
And there freely tell Your Father of Your concerns, joys and loves.


Luke 15:10

In the same way, I tell you, 
there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God 
over one sinner who repents.

Luke 23:43

Jesus answered him, 
"Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise."

Luke 12

6 Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? 
Yet not one of them is forgotten by God.
 7 And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 
So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows. 
8 I tell you, everyone who confesses Me before men, 
the Son of Man will also confess him 
before the angels of God.






Abba, Father,

We understand You to clearly say, come directly to Me, My Child.

Father God, may the meditations of my heart 
and the words of my mouth be pleasing 
and acceptable to You, my Father God.

I Give You my heart and this prayer. 
And cover these prayers and please bless them and keep them. 
May Your face shine upon these prayers and be gracious to them. 
Lift up Your Face to Smile upon my prayer. 
And keep these prayers covered 
in Your Name - Jesus Christ - with Peace.

We pray for Turkey Syria, afraid to go home and dwell
in a building that might give way.
We ask Your Mercy
and rejoice, more people were found alive today.
Two earthquakes in the 4 range.


The Lord Jesus Christ, The Lord, 
The Lord. 

Jesus has done all things well. 
Jesus even makes the deaf hear 
and the mute speak.”

May we rest and renew 
to draw encouragement 
from You 
and see the mercies of God 
renew again each day. 
You have the Word of Life. 

Thank You 
Jesus for this 
and our many blessings.
Including a new front tooth.
 Amen.

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. <><
