John 14:26 ~ The Helper

John 14:26

The Helper, the Holy Spirit, 

whom the Father will send 

In My Name, 

He will teach you all things 

and 

bring to your remembrance 

all that I have said to you.

We had a Sermon, actually 2 recently! And I have been pondering them. 

When we have a conversation in our heads about choices and decisions to be made, we want an answer.  And as people who believe God's Promises and believe Jesus is the Word of God, then we tend to want to pull out a Scripture and have that answer for us. I smile when I think of Harry Potter and the pensieve memories.  The puzzle is, sometimes we pull out too many Scriptures, and they make us feel this is even more complex. We want something more seasonal to the very day.

As if the answer is this:

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; a time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to throw away; a time to tear, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, 

and a time for peace

Really, when we are thinking through Scripture, we have The Helper and all thought is beneficial to process through our complex and layered emotions.

If Mary is the Mother of God, and Jesus is called The Lamb of God, then... Mary had a Little Lamb? Yes! And we do as well.

Why would this verse be the most sought after verse in 2024 and 2023?

Probably the unexplained and ignored younger deaths. There is so much hype over things of a sexual matter, what we really think about is ... ignored. This is a tough situation, but one God would provide His Comfort.

God Loves the world.  And all have fallen.

God Gives! To you and to me. His Son. Jesus. Wonderful. Counselor. Almighty God. 

Our journey always ends up before Jesus. If our Journey is like yogurt eaters of the Swiss Alps living to be 122 years old,  or if we are having a changing in the heart, in the electrical rhythm, at a young age, we believe we will be given the gift of seeing Jesus Christ.  And He Loves the world.  

Would we be out of His Plan if people did die of the Vaccine, instead of the 28% dying in Italy before the Pandemic Lockdown? Doubtful.

Proverbs 18:10

God's plans cannot be thwarted. 

Therefore, hide yourself in Him; 

The Name of the Lord is a strong tower, 

the righteous run into it, 

and 

they are saved 

1 Thessalonians 5:11

Whether we're awake with the living 

or asleep with the dead, we're alive with Him. 

So speak encouraging words to one another. 

Build up hope so you'll all be together in this, 

no one left out, 

no one left behind

There are so many people.  Will they be known and remembered?

Isaiah 40:26

 Lift up your eyes on high

He who brings out their Heavenly 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.

The average lifespan in Africa and developing nations is still in the 4th decade. President Teddy Roosevelt lost his first wife in her 20s and both his parents in their 40s because this was a typical time to reach Heaven. We aren't guaranteed a long life.  It does not mean this isn't the plan of a Loving Father. Instead, we are given Salvation in Jesus Christ.  Forever. Eternally.

Will we have the strength to do this life?

Jeremiah 29:11

“For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans for prosperity and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope”

Philippians 4:13

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” 

Recently, a 'documentary' was made saying the Bible only repeats what other monotheistic religions have to say. God would answer this in His Word.  Even polytheistic times,  He says there are powers and principalities. Some good, some evil.  And He says we know His exact nature in our being. And when we ask the Lord in His Love and Goodness to dwell in us, He will Live Move and have His Being in our mind, soul, heart, life and eternal path.

By faith, we are healed. 

Israel was attacked in their sleep. Imagine if your family had sleeping murder. Grandparent kidnap and blood, violent kidnap videos. Then toddlers were kidnapped and wore signs threatening the toddler's destruction. And they warmongers guarantee to do this again within a decade. Would you war in return? Wipe out those who want war and murder, or wait for the next set of grandmothers and toddlers to disappear after the videos arrived.

Pray for Peace for Israel.

Isaiah 30:18 ~ Compassion †

 

Isaiah 30:18

Yet the LORD longs to be gracious to you; 

He rises to show you compassion. 

For the LORD is a God of Justice.

Blessed 

are all who wait 

for Him!

We have to really observe to see what surrounds us, with curiosity and joy. Be intentional. 

Zechariah, a priest, met Gabriel in a Holy Place. And he asked how God could complete a miracle. Mary met Gabriel and asked how God could complete a miracle. God saw two hearts asking a similar question, but saw deeply - one was doubtful and one was worried. Similar yet. 

God deals with humanity tenderly when humanity seeks earnestly. Look for the narrow path, this makes life meaningful.

I had the nicest of blessings surrounding me recently.
And without this list on this blog, this would have completely passed me by. And no gratitude would have occurred. Graititude.

Pleased to have gratitude float up. Having time and being able to give a message of His - to bless me to recount gratitude. To Love.

Being in relationship with God to tell Him - oh, I'm having a grumpy moment - and knowing that is ok to be real. To have the idea to see something pretty and share an evening beverage with a loved one who will listen and laugh with you. Enjoying the intelligence of bested with amusement.

2 Corinthians 5:17  

Wherefore 

if any man is in Christ, 

he is a new creature: 

the old things are passed away

Behold, they are become 

new.

 Where are the nine? 

Was no one found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?” 

And He said to him, 

“Rise and go your way; 

your faith has made you well.”

Help us to LIVE

The fullness of the earth is Yours.

The healing of those we pray for

Isaiah 45:8-10 ~ Let the earth open up and salvation bear fruit

ALL SEASONS

ALL GENERATIONS

ALL OF GOD'S PEOPLE 

Sometimes when praying, I visualize a Teton mountain as a beautiful waterfall. And God in His Spirit, in the Glory of Holiness, in His Power of His Word is far more able to do than we can ask or imagine. Jesus, a gift from God to us, is our righteousness.

Isaiah 45:8-10

Let the earth open up 

and 

salvation bear fruit,

And righteousness spring up with it. 

I, the LORD, have created it.

God does not vary, He is the same Steadfast Love yesterday, today and tomorrow.


And in the Celebration God has in Creation - God said, "Let there be Light!"
 

Celebration, God gave the idea beaming brightly in His Word. 

The Festival of Booths is inspired by God and is useful to teach us truth and making us realize correctable parts in our lives. We are put, in tender mercy, to do what is right.

The paths of God are filled with internal Love, Joy, Peace and Hope.

This hope lifts us from the Second Law of Thermodynamics. Events of every day irritation and dismay.

Isaiah 51:6

Lift up your eyes to the heavens,

and look at the earth beneath;

for the heavens vanish

like smoke, the earth will wear out like a garment,

and they who dwell in it will die in like manner

However My salvation will be forever,

and My righteousness will never be dismayed.

God lifts up Ecclesiastes House to the Gospels of Love and Encouragement in Jesus Christ.

Ecclesiastes 1:9
What has been is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done, 
and there is nothing new under the sun.


After World War II, the Cathedrals of Europe began to become empty. And God is bringing new life. The Celebration of Genesis when God gave Light to the world. Light to dwell in mankind. The Allies are celebrating with Europe.


The Return of a type of Festival of Booths.

As Happy as the Craft Events in the USA. As Welcome as the Church Pumpkin Patch.

Isaiah 61:2-4

To proclaim the year of the Lord's favor,

all who mourn

To grant to those who mourn in Zion—

a beautiful headdress

the oil of gladness 

instead of mourning.

The garment of praise 

instead of a faint spirit;

that they may be called 

Oaks of Righteousness,

that He may be glorified.

They shall build up the ancient ruins;

  They shall raise up the former devastations;

They shall repair the ruined cities,

the devastations 

of many generations.
