Philippians 2:1-11 ~ The Name that is above every Name

 






Dr. Alveda King, niece of Martin Luther King,
speaks about Charlie Kirk

Powerfully

Philippians 2:1-11




2 So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy, 2 complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. 

3 Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. 4 Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. 

5 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 6 Who, though He was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but emptied Himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. 

9 Therefore God has highly exalted Him 
and 
bestowed on Him the Name 
that is 
above every Name, 
so that at the
 Name of Jesus every knee should bow, in Heaven and on earth 
and under the earth, 

and 
every tongue confess 
that 
Jesus Christ is Lord, 
to the glory of God 
the Father.



Brad Lea showed up on my social media today. He was explaining about his 2-year-old daughter drowning in their swimming pool.  The ring camera caught the drowning, she was underwater for 2 minutes and 38 seconds and had gone to the bottom of the pool and turned blue.  His wife jumped in, rescued and called for ambulances.  She began resuscitating her daughter, who instead took a breath and began to cry.  After the hospital, their daughter began for 2 weeks to talk over and over and over again about her new friend. Jeshua.  Yeshua.  Jesus. 

His daughter, for 2 weeks beyond, has done a completely remarkable job of explaining, extremely consistently, she met Yeshua. HE is her friend. She met HIM.


This is where Charlie Kirk is. 

Edward and I have been close. So close. Our daughter, died during childbirth, after Hurricane Ike. Barometric Pressures and babies.  And as she was born, she had won everything. The look on her face said ALL.  Our daughter had met Yeshua. Everything was according to His Plan. Our baby girl did not speak, she was asleep with the Lord, however her face was proclaiming. Testifying. Comfort. Help. Comforter.  Shining with Joy.

This is where Charlie Kirk is. 

The one we speak of so much in Bible Studies is Moses. And with constant faith and obedience, Joshua won the heart of Our Father.  Yehoshua (יְהוֹשֻׁעַ). And the Lord said He would Name His Son after Yehoshua. Yeshua.  Jesus. The Name Above All Names.


This is where Charlie Kirk is!

Jude 1:3 

Beloved, although I was very eager to write to you about our common salvation,
 I found it necessary to write 
appealing to you to contend for the faith 
that was once for 
all 
delivered 
to the saints.


Matthew 12:18

“Behold, my servant 
whom I have chosen,
my beloved 
with whom my soul is well pleased. 
I will put my Spirit upon him, 
and he 
will 
proclaim justice to the Gentiles.


1 John 3:1-2

See what kind of love the Father has given to us, 
that we should be called children of God; 
and so we are. 

The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know Him. Beloved, we are God's children now, 
and 
what we will be has not yet appeared; 
but we know that when He appears 
we shall be like Him, 
because we shall see Him 
as He is.






Matthew 17:5
 
He was still speaking when, 
behold, 
a bright cloud overshadowed them, 
and a voice from the cloud said, 

“This is my beloved Son, with Whom I am well pleased; 
listen to Him.”



1 John 4:7

Beloved,
 let us love one another, 
for love is from God, 
and whoever loves 
has been born of God 
and 
knows God.



Daniel 10:11

And he said to me, 
“O Daniel, man greatly loved, 
understand the words that I speak to you, 
and stand upright, 
for now I have been sent to you.” 

And when he had spoken this Word to me, I stood up trembling.


Isaiah 41:10 

Fear not, for I am with you; 
be not dismayed, for I am your God; 
I will 
strengthen you, 
I will 
help you, 
I will 
uphold you 
with my righteous right hand.




Psalm 34:4

I sought the Lord, and 
He answered me 
and 
delivered me
 from all my fears.



Psalm 27:1

Of David. 

The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? 
The Lord is the stronghold of my life; 
of whom shall I be afraid?


1 Corinthians 15:58
 
Therefore, my beloved brothers, 
be steadfast,
 immovable, 
always abounding in the work of the Lord, 
knowing that in the Lord 
your labor 
is not in vain.




Abba, Father,



Forget not all His benefits -

Who forgives all your sins
and 
heals all your diseases,

Who redeems your life from the pit
and crowns you 
with love and compassion

Father, You are working
and so is Your Son, Jesus Christ.
The Power of the Holy Spirit.

Remember not
the sins of our youth.
And the mercy of the merciful
Explains to the youth. Gently and tenderly.

Turn again
to the Lord.

With Your Help
We will act justly
 and to love mercy
 and to walk humbly with You, our God.


Dwell in me,
Dwell in us,
Dwell in those we Love,
Help us to seek You first.
And we will finish well, in Jesus Christ. 



Lord Jesus Christ,

Bless those working for

1 Timothy 6:2-8, 18-20 ~ serve ALL the better!













1 Timothy 6:2-8, 18-20





Rather they must serve all the better since those who benefit by their good service are believers and beloved. Teach and urge these things.

3 If anyone teaches a different doctrine and does not agree with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the teaching that accords with godliness, 4 he is puffed up with conceit and understands nothing. He has an unhealthy craving for controversy and for quarrels about words, which produce envy, dissension, slander, evil suspicions, 5 and constant friction among people who are depraved in mind and deprived of the truth, imagining that godliness is a means of gain. 

6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.

7 For we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world. 8 But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content. 

God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy. 

18 They are to do good, to be rich in good works, to be generous and ready to share, 19 thus storing up treasure for themselves as a good foundation for the future, so that they may take hold of that which is truly life.

20 O Timothy, guard the deposit entrusted to you.




And then suddenly, love reaches up, grabs you and brightens your world forever.

A day remembered to grace your life. My mother went up to Celina, Texas, to see her uncle Allen, who was passing away.  She wanted to gather, he had graced her life and she would want him to know.  As she went in, this tall, broad-shouldered 94-year-old greeted her by name and told her today would be beautiful.  And she put down her flowers to gather her emotions, this was a hospice.  He covered for her and said today he would be in Heaven and he was so looking forward to see and be with his mother, Julia. My mother's grandmother.  His favorite day on earth was his mother's birthday, the year he was 6 years old. He had worked and worked on her birthday gift and she said the gift had made this her best ever birthday.  My mother witnessed profound joy all over the kind man's face. 


And this week we were again in Independence, Texas to visit the Antique Rose Emporium outside of Bremond, Texas. This nursery is beautiful and this is the unique place where Pioneer Roses are durable, fragrant and discovered all over, but had originated in the county of Washington Co, Texas.  We took our dogs and met a local lady and her friend, they stopped to visit with us and the dogs. 

This lovely woman said she so wanted a dog, but being in her 80s, she declined to prevent pain to a dog, having his owner pass away. As we shopped, I ran into them again, I said, You are so spry. I think you should have a dog!  And she laughed, and replied she hadn't finished the story. Her son had found a lovely puppy and called, sent her a text, the small puppy had wandered up into his business. Her son went on to promise he would take the dog to his home if she were to pass away. This lady looked as if this would be the furthest thing from happening, but now the dog is 7 months old and the delight of her life. One of her best dogs yet, and she has always been a dog person.

Then her face grew warm and loving with remembrance. Her son had called her and asked her what she would name the pup.  And as they spoke, she saw what love the dog had for her, and she knew the dog's name. Her mother's name. An old-fashioned name, one you would not know, but a beautiful hyphenated name.  And saying the name, she had warm and happy tears in her eyes.  She said her son had approved because she said she wanted to hear her mother's name spoken around her for her last years. Because. You see, she longed to see her perfect mother again. It was the thought that brought her such joy each day as she aged towards Heaven.

This is so tender, today, it has provided me joy; I will remember all my days as well.  Her son lives locally and this has brought her mother's name and memories back all over. 


We can spread this Love!


Billy Graham said the Love of Jesus Christ is so bright that after 2 thousand years, we can extinguish every light in a football stadium, light one candle, and everyone in the packed stadium can see The Candle Representing Jesus Christ.

Lives changed.

If you can have the room for another dog or cat, especially if you could adopt two together, the lady in Washington County, Texas, has always had 2 until being 85 years old, because it is such a lovely life to have 2.



















This is a Stellar Facility
and one 
our family 
has supported with Three Adoptions !!!











We actually picked our 2 orange cats from the photos, went in to Petsmart in Shenandoah, saw them behind the glass and stayed with the lovies we have today.

Two is better. More exercise, more entertainment, more snuggles to see, and when away from home, no guilties. More Joy for ALL!





Abba, Father,


Who redeems your life 
from the pit
and 
crowns you 
with love and compassion



Father,
we ask for the Holy Spirit
to dwell first in our lives,
and 
ask Your mercy and grace
upon us who ask
for Your Love and Favor
in Jesus Christ's
Holy Spirit.






Dwell in me,
Dwell in us,
Dwell in those we Love,
Help us to seek You first.
And we will finish well, in Jesus Christ. 






With Your Help, 
evidence unseen, 
we believe Jesus walks on water.












Praying for the healing
of the entire Kirk Family,
both of Charlie's parents,
his wife Erika
and their 2 small children.
Charlie's sister,
his extended family.
And HIS Extended family
in
The God of All Salvation.





Healing, Lord Jesus.

God Bless you
and The Lord
Keep you.

HEAL OUR NATION


For Children in their Schools, all safety.

For those who protect and defend the USA,
protect us from evil.
Let evil and practicing evil
depart far from us

And our families,

Thank You, Father,
for Your Good Will.
And hearing our prayers.
















Those who protect
and defend
All The Word of God.
Freedom in our Churches.




Wholeness

Calling upon You.
Lord Jesus Christ,

Oh Lord Jesus,
Our Father,
Holy Spirit
Amen and Amen and Amen
Thank YOU



We pray that as a Nation,
as a Community,
as a Church,
as a Neighborhood,
we share what You would have us share.





And in this communal sharing,
Your Good Creation would see
better weather.
Rain shared instead of flood.
Removing drought.

Texas is very dry recently.
More for us all, praying for rain! Father!

Warmth shared
instead of unusual cold
storms.

Thank You, Father.

Prayer does work,
Thank You, Lord
 for hearing us.




Bless this
Good Creation,
Father,
let the storms of
destruction
and drought
pass us all by.

And prayers
for my back
are greatly appreciated
Thank You.

Thank You, Father,
for Your Help, Helper,
Comfort, Comforter.
Lord Jesus Christ!



We ask in the Name of Jesus Christ.
Our Father!


2 Corinthians 3:17

Now the Lord
is the Spirit,
and
where the Spirit of the Lord is,
there is Freedom.





And in Jesus - this Hope, 
Faith and Love - we will rise up believing Jesus. 
Amen.

About scripture-for-today.blogspot.com/

We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He has saved all who call upon His name and rely on Him for His Grace. The Scriptures are living & active and are for understanding the Lord Almighty. Biblical readings are chosen from the Ecumenical Christian Church and the Nicene Council, 325 A.D., approved Apocrypha. People remember not just from reading, but by sight and orally- an image has been added as well as audio readings. God tends to link the passages together with fascinates - this blogger, Anne-Laurel Gardere

A simple blog, scripture-for-today.blogspot

This blog is pretty simple, but for a reason. This blog isn't about agenda or me, it is for the joy and love to found by reading the Scriptures. Ultimately, it is you and the Lord.

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. <><
