Philippians 1:20-24 I eagerly expect and hope that I will in no way be ashamed, but will have complete boldness so that now as always Christ will be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death.

Do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore, whoever chooses to be a friend of the world renders himself an enemy of God. Or do you think the Scripture says without reason that the Spirit He caused to dwell in us yearns with envy? But He gives us more grace. This is why it says: “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.” Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Grieve, mourn, and weep. Turn your laughter to mourning, and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will exalt you.YOUTUBE: https://youtu.be/7XtYKTMsbZQ

Our lips are our own—who can stop us?” The LORD replies, “I have seen violence done to the helpless, and I have heard the groans of the poor. Now I will rise up to rescue them, as they have longed for me to do.” The LORD’s promises are pure, like silver refined in a furnace, purified seven times over. Therefore, LORD, we know you will protect the oppressed, preserving them forever from this lying generation, even though the wicked strut about, and evil is praised throughout the land.

Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others. Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds us all together in perfect harmony. And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful. Let the message about Christ, in all its richness, fill your lives. Teach and counsel each other with all the wisdom he gives. Sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs to God with thankful hearts.

Let him show it by his good conduct, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom. But if you harbor bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast in it or deny the truth. Such wisdom does not come from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic. For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every evil practice. But the wisdom from above is first of all pure, then peace-loving, gentle, accommodating, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial, and sincere. Peacemakers who sow in peace reap the fruit of righteousness.Wisdom, knowledge, and understanding Proverbs 2:1-12Full read on, Living the New Life, Colossians 3:1-17YOUTUBE: https://youtu.be/77vvMrI6MG8

Ephesians 1:19 and [so that you will begin to know] what the immeasurable and unlimited and surpassing greatness of His [active, spiritual] power is in us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of His mighty strength. AMPEphesians 1:11-22 Furthermore, because we are united with Christ, we have received an inheritance from God, for he chose us in advance, and he makes everything work out according to his plan. 12God’s purpose was that we Jews who were the first to trust in Christ would bring praise and glory to God. 13And now you Gentiles have also heard the truth, the Good News that God saves you. And when you believed in Christ, he identified you as his own by giving you the Holy Spirit, whom he promised long ago. 14The Spirit is God’s guarantee that he will give us the inheritance he promised and that he has purchased us to be his own people. He did this so we would praise and glorify him. 15Ever since I first heard of your strong faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for God’s people everywhere, 16I have not stopped thanking God for you. I pray for you constantly, 17asking God, the glorious Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, to give you spiritual wisdom and insight so that you might grow in your knowledge of God. 18I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope he has given to those he called—his holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance.19I also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God’s power for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power 20that raised Christ from the dead and seated him in the place of honor at God’s right hand in the heavenly realms. 21Now he is far above any ruler or authority or power or leader or anything else—not only in this world but also in the world to come. 22God has put all things under the authority of Christ and has made him head over all things for the benefit of the church. 23And the church is his body; it is made full and complete by Christ, who fills all things everywhere with himself. NLTLet your heart be close to HimJeremiah 29:11-14 (Key verse 13) For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, to give you a future and a hope. 12Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart. I will be found by you, declares the LORD, and I will restore you from captivity.YOUTUBE: https://youtu.be/whaMdFtfl5M

Scripture for thought1 John 5:10-111 John 5:1-21Psalm 19:1-6Hebrews 11:5-7Romans 8:6John 17:15-201 John 5:9-13 Even if we accept human testimony, the testimony of God is greater. For this is the testimony that God has given about His Son. Whoever believes in the Son of God has this testimony within him; whoever does not believe God has made Him out to be a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given about His Son. And this is that testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life. I have written these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.Luke 8:10 He replied, “The knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of God has been given to you...YOUTUBE:https://youtu.be/dEZodmt0r7c
1 John 5:17-21 (18) All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not unto death. We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not. And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness. And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life. Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.You Belong To GodEphesians 1:12-14 God’s purpose was that we Jews who were the first to trust in Christ would bring praise and glory to God. And now you Gentiles have also heard the truth, the Good News that God saves you. And when you believed in Christ, he identified you as his own by giving you the Holy Spirit, whom he promised long ago. The Spirit is God’s guarantee that he will give us the inheritance he promised and that he has purchased us to be his own people. He did this so we would praise and glorify him. NLTEphesians 1:15-23 Ever since I first heard of your strong faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for God’s people everywhere, I have not stopped thanking God for you. I pray for you constantly, asking God, the glorious Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, to give you spiritual wisdom and insight so that you might grow in your knowledge of God. I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope he has given to those he called—his holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance.I also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God’s power for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead and seated him in the place of honor at God’s right hand in the heavenly realms. Now he is far above any ruler or authority or power or leader or anything else—not only in this world but also in the world to come. God has put all things under the authority of Christ and has made him head over all things for the benefit of the church. And the church is his body; it is made full and complete by Christ, who fills all things everywhere with himself.Wisdom, knowledge, and understanding are ours in Him Ephesians 1:2-8 Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.

We Are Formed In Christ, Live RightConcerning Colossians 3:12-14, it is not an act; it is a heart thing. You see, if we dwell in love, we dwell in God. I can not love my sisters and brothers that I can see if I don’t live in Christ. God is the Love that we are living in through Jesus Christ, His Son.Colossians 3:1-17 (5-10) Put to death, therefore, the components of your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires, and greed, which is idolatry. 6Because of these, the wrath of God is coming on the sons of disobedience. 7When you lived among them, you also used to walk in these ways. 8But now you must put aside all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips. 9Do not lie to one another, since you have taken off the old self with its practices, 10and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator. 11Here there is no Greek or Jew, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave, or free, but Christ is all and is in all. 12Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, clothe yourselves with hearts of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. 13Bear with one another and forgive any complaint you may have against someone else. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. 14And over all these virtues put on love, which is the bond of perfect unity. 15Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, for to this you were called as members of one body. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. 17And whatever you do, in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.Galatians 5:23-25 (24-25) Ephesians 4:17-27 (20-24)Ephesians 4:(20-24) (Note #3 pg. 1253 KJV (24) The new man is Christ formed in the believer, Galatians 2:20, 4:19, 1John 4:12.

Jehovah Shammah - The LORD IS THEREIts name is Jehovah Shammah—God Is There (Ezekiel 48;35). John says of the New Jerusalem, “God is with men, and He will dwell with them. . . . God Himself will be with them” (Revelation 21:3).I was singing a song this morning and the lyric went “Welcome into this place welcome into this broken vessel you desire to abide in the praises of your people, so we lift our hearts and we lift our hands as we offer up this praise onto your name.” Now, the more that I sang the song, I had this thought, When do we step out of the sound of our voices and into the omnipresence of God? I have a Psalm 27:4 desire One thing I have asked of the LORD; this is what I desire: to dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the LORD and seek Him in His temple.No matter the arguments of life, no matter the distress or the diseases or the knocking on the door, what comes in the mail, the husband, or wife, children, the father, or mother whoever it is that's close enough to affect your life nobody, and no situation, nothing can separate you from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Scripture for thoughtJames 2:19 You say you have faith, for you believe that there is one God. Good for you! Even the demons believe this, and they tremble in terror. NLTYou have learned the boundaries of Salvation - stay in the love of God.Isaiah 12:1-6Isaiah 26:1-6 Hebrews 12:4-17James 2:18-20Appearance of godliness2 Timothy 3:1-5 But understand this: In the last days terrible times will come. For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, without love of good, traitorous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. Turn away from such as these!UnforgivenessMatthew 6:14-15 For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive yours.Hebrews 10:30-32 For we know Him who said, “Vengeance is Mine; I will repay,” and again, “The Lord will judge His people.” It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. Remember the early days that you were in the light. In those days, you endured a great conflict in the face of suffering.All sin is unrighteousness, and it all starts with a thought.1 John 5:17-18 All unrighteousness is sin, yet there is sin that does not lead to death.

Mary Luke 1:26-38 (31-35) You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you will name him Jesus. He will be very great and will be called the Son of the Most High.

I am a virgin.” The angel replied, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the baby to be born will be holy, and he will be called the Son of God.Genesis 1:1-3 The Word and the SpiritJesus MarredIsaiah 52:14 Just as many were appalled at Him— His appearance was disfigured beyond that of any man, and His form was marred beyond human likeness.Moses Numbers 20:7-13 (10-12) And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before the rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out of this rock? And Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote the rock twice: and the water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their beasts also. And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed me not, to sanctify me in the eyes of the of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this congregation into the land which I have given them.Exodus & Deuteronomy 38,The Soul That SinsEzekiel 18:20 The person who sins is the one who will die.

God is spirit [the Source of life, yet invisible to mankind], and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”Philippians 3:3 For it is we who are the circumcision, we who worship by the Spirit of God, who glory in Christ Jesus, and who put no confidence in the flesh.Proverbs 14:12 There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death.Proverbs 30:12 There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet is not washed from their filthiness.Romans 6:21 What fruit did you reap at that time from the things of which you are now ashamed? The outcome of those things is death.Isaiah 40:28-31 (28-29) Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.Psalm 1:1,2 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful…Even if it’s husband or wife or father or mother, child, grown up children, grandparents, aunties, uncles, cousins, or friends.

Fullness of Life in ChristColossians 2:6-23 Since you have accepted Christ Jesus as Lord, live in union with him. Keep your roots deep in him, build your lives on him, and become stronger in your faith, as you were taught. And be filled with thanksgiving.See to it, then, that no one enslaves you by means of the worthless deceit of human wisdom, which comes from the teachings handed down by human beings and from the ruling spirits of the universe, and not from Christ. 9For the full content of divine nature lives in Christ, in his humanity, 10and you have been given full life in union with him. He is supreme over every spiritual ruler and authority.11In union with Christ you were circumcised, not with the circumcision that is made by human beings, but with the circumcision made by Christ, which consists of being freed from the power of this sinful self. 12 For when you were baptized, you were buried with Christ, and in baptism you were also raised with Christ through your faith in the active power of God, who raised him from death. 13 You were at one time spiritually dead because of your sins and because you were Gentiles without the Law. But God has now brought you to life with Christ. God forgave us all our sins; 14 he canceled the unfavorable record of our debts with its binding rules and did away with it completely by nailing it to the cross. 15And on that cross Christ freed himself from the power of the spiritual rulers and authorities;+ he made a public spectacle of them by leading them as captives in his victory procession.16 So let no one make rules about what you eat or drink or about holy days or the New Moon Festival or the Sabbath. 17All such things are only a shadow of things in the future; the reality is Christ. 18Do not allow yourselves to be condemned by anyone who claims to be superior because of special visions and who insists on false humility and the worship of angels. For no reason at all, such people are all puffed up by their human way of thinking 19 and have stopped holding on to Christ, who is the head of the body. Under Christ's control the whole body is nourished and held together by its joints and ligaments, and it grows as God wants it to grow.Dying and Living with Christ20You have died with Christ and are set free from the ruling spirits of the universe. Why, then, do you live as though you belonged to this world? Why do you obey such rules as 21“Don't handle this,” “Don't taste that,” “Don't touch the other”? 22All these refer to things which become useless once they are used; they are only human rules and teachings. 23Of course such rules appear to be based on wisdom in their forced worship of angels, and false humility, and severe treatment of the body; but they have no real value in controlling physical passions.Colossians 3:1-4 You have been raised to life with Christ, so set your hearts on the things that are in heaven, where Christ sits on his throne at the right side of God. Keep your minds fixed on things there, not on things here on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. Your real life is Christ and when he appears, then you too will appear with him and share his glory!Youtube https://youtu.be/fkuIyodAEig
Deuteronomy 30:14-16 But the word is very near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart, so that you may obey it. See, I have set before you today life and goodness, as well as death and disaster. For I am commanding you today to love the LORD your God, to walk in His ways...1 John 4:8-10 (9-10)And God showed his love for us by sending his only Son into the world, so that we might have life through him. 10 This is what love is: it is not that we have loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the means by which our sins are forgiven.James 4:7 Submit to God...Ezekiel 37:1-7 (3)And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest.The Lord turns the captivityJeremiah 29:11-14 (13-14) And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart and I will be found of you says the Lord...We do not substitute God's love with an idol. When trouble comes, we look to the Lord and take cover in His promises. We say and do what the Lord said just like Jesus. God is love, the love that he is, is a shield that fear cannot penetrate.

But the one who enters through the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep recognize his voice and come to him. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. After he has gathered his own flock, he walks ahead of them, and they follow him because they know his voice. They won’t follow a stranger; they will run from him because they don’t know his voice.” Those who heard Jesus use this illustration didn’t understand what he meant, so he explained it to them: “I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep. All who came before me were thieves and robbers. But the true sheep did not listen to them. Yes, I am the gate. Those who come in through me will be saved. They will come and go freely and will find good pastures. The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life.Hebrews 4:14-16 So then, since we have a great High Priest who has entered heaven, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to what we believe.

These dying bodies cannot inherit what will last forever.But let me reveal to you a wonderful secret. We will not all die, but we will all be transformed! It will happen in a moment, in the blink of an eye, when the last trumpet is blown. For when the trumpet sounds, those who have died will be raised to live forever. And we who are living will also be transformed. For our dying bodies must be transformed into bodies that will never die; our mortal bodies must be transformed into immortal bodies. Then, when our dying bodies have been transformed into bodies that will never die, this Scripture will be fulfilled: “Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?”For sin is the sting that results in death, and the law gives sin its power. But thank God! He gives us victory over sin and death through our Lord Jesus Christ. So, my dear brothers and sisters, be strong and immovable. Always work enthusiastically for the Lord, for you know that nothing you do for the Lord is ever useless.Youtube https://youtu.be/HlRIcjktels

He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.Scripture for thoughtIsaiah 57:15-19 (15) he high and lofty one who lives in eternity, the Holy One, says this: “I live in the high and holy place with those whose spirits are contrite and humble.

So all the people went home and ate and drank joyfully and shared what they had with others, because they understood what had been read to them.Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 That’s the whole story.

Faith does not come from feelings it comes from the word of God. The word brings the knowledge of what you have inherited through Jesus Christ. We are at this very moment ONE WITH THE LORD, so then, how can our confidence be in the flesh? Do we know that the knowledge we have been given transcends the world we live in? We are right now, born from above as we continue to submit our souls to God. But if we do not submit to God, the devil will not flee torment will pursue and emptiness will have its way in us. 2 Corinthians 5:6-7 Therefore we are always confident, although we know that while we are at home in the body, we are away from the Lord.

Therefore, since we have now been justified by His blood, how much more shall we be saved from wrath through Him! For if, when we were enemies of God, we were reconciled to Him through the death of His Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through His life!1 Corinthians 6:9-11 Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who submit to or perform homosexual acts, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor verbal abusers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God.

This is a lyric to a song, "I am under the rock, the rock that's higher than I Jehovah hide me, I am under the rock Go tell my enemies, I am under the rock." The Lord Jehovah has put you on the Rock not under one. If we wanted to look at this lyric from the position of the body (the church), then Jesus is the head of our lives and though we are hid in Christ in God we are visible but unattainable to the enemy because we are solid On This Rock. Jesus said upon this Rock the gates of hell would not prevail against His church (Christ's body) but we have to wake up to the supreme authority of Christ and our position in Jesus Christ.Get in the right positionMatthew 16:17-19 …17Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah!

I believe every Child of God should read, know, and study this blueprint. This is a foundational principle. I mean it! every born again Child of the Most High God needs to know this.Revelation 12:7-12 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them.

After worshipping this morning, I saw a staff going across me like a shepherd standing with a staff protecting his sheep. And the shepherd said she is mine, back off, don't touch her leave her alone. And there is still an ongoing song lifting up the Lord. I do not know how you are feeling today but press in and lift up the Lord. There is not a word that comes out of your mouth that God does not know so we knowingly surrender every thought and intention of the heart and mind to worship the Lord. Fighting through presumptuous thoughts casting them down as if to climb the highest mountain to tell the LORD how great He is. As we do, we are gaining the kind of heart that is filled with true faith. Hebrews 10:22 let us draw near with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.Colossians 2:1-4 Colossians 2:1-17 Galatians 6:14-16 2 Corinthians 5:16-17 Ephesians 4:21-24 Psalm 27:1-14Psalm 29:1-11Psalm 31:14-24Psalm 103:13-14 Look up the word compassion and look up the word alleviate to get the deeper meaning.Assurance of faithPsalm 119:104-105 I gain understanding from Your precepts; therefore, I hate every false way.

My prayer, to God, give me back what I once had, my dance and my song for you. Bring me back to that place when I wasn't afraid of you, Lord Jesus. The Mind FieldI once loved God with all my heart with all my strength and with all my mind until I walked into a minefield. It felt like explosion after explosion until I could not hear or think clearly anymore. It hurt so much to be separated from the one I adored and all I could do was long for the Lord at a distance because of the mortar all around me. I yelled for the Lord, I screamed and became bitter and resentful of my enemies.The mind field makes you afraid of everything that moves even the living God who saves you. You won't come to Jesus and rest in his arms. You won’t praise and worship him like he's your one and only. You won't lift him up anymore and magnify him with all your heart, with all your mind, and all your strength.Do not allow yourselves to be deceived because of sin. I thank God for taking us out of darkness and bringing us into the kingdom of His dear son. Colossians 1:11-14 We also pray that you will be strengthened with all his glorious power so you will have all the endurance and patience you need. May you be filled with joy, always thanking the Father. He has enabled you to share in the inheritance that belongs to his people, who live in the light. For he has rescued us from the kingdom of darkness and transferred us into the Kingdom of his dear Son, who purchased our freedom and forgave our sins.2 Corinthians 5:18-19 But all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ [making us acceptable to Him] and gave us the ministry of reconciliation [so that by our example we might bring others to Him], 19that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting people’s sins against them [but canceling them].

Asaph, the writer of Psalm 73, didn't just pull out a pen and begin to write he pulled out an instrument and the hum of his heart went before the living God. He lifted up the need before the Almighty all the while recognizing and comprehending the Creator of heaven and earth. He didn't allow any situation or circumstance to be greater than the Lord. He submitted himself to God. Do not despise the day of small beginnings.Zechariah 4:10 Do not despise these small beginnings, for the LORD rejoices to see the work begin, to see the plumb line in Zerubbabel’s hand.” (The seven lamps represent the eyes of the LORD that search all around the world.)Psalm 77:10-14 God declares His strength to His people... 72:17-20 His name shall endure for ever: his name shall be continued as long as the sun: and men shall be blessed in him: all nations shall call him blessed.

The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.Psalm 73:24-28 Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory. Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee. My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever. For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee. But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works.Psalm 73:1-28Proverbs 10:22 The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.Keep the Lord's joy The joy you have is addicting. John 15:10-11 If you keep My commandments, you will remain in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and remain in His love. I have told you these things so that My joy may be in you and your joy may be complete.The famine in Joseph's time was predicted all over the land, yet God had a plan.Genesis chapters 41-50Genesis 41:14-16 So Pharaoh sent for Joseph, who was quickly brought out of the dungeon. After he had shaved and changed his clothes, he went in before Pharaoh. Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I had a dream, and no one can interpret it. But I have heard it said of you that when you hear a dream you can interpret it.” “I myself cannot do it,” Joseph replied, “but God will give Pharaoh a sound answer.”…Genesis 46:1-7 Jacob trusting God, again.Genesis 50:19-21 But Joseph replied, “Do not be afraid.

Therefore, do not be afraid. I will provide for you and your little ones.” So Joseph reassured his brothers and spoke kindly to them.A Sticky note on my desk, Help me to behold you Lord, and esteem you higher than any other.

I thank God for the forgiveness of sins. Now we get to forgive othersMatthew 6:12 Amplified Bible ‘And forgive us our debts, as we have forgiven our debtors [letting go of both the wrong and the resentment]. THIS WORD IS LIVING AND ACTIVE – IT IS SPIRIT AND LIFE. This is not advice from a strange word that you don’t know.Matthew 6:9-15 Pray like this: Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. May your Kingdom come soon. May your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us today the food we need, and forgive us our sins, as we have forgiven those who sin against us. And don’t let us yield to temptation, but rescue us from the evil one. “If you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you. But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins.Colossians 3:12-15 Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, clothe yourselves with hearts of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. Bear with one another and forgive any complaint you may have against someone else. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which is the bond of perfect unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, for to this you were called as members of one body.

If we truly comprehended the depths of God's love, we will not allow our feelings to contradict this love. Anger, bitterness, rage, depression, ungodliness, fear, and uncertainty could not remain in us. Because perfect love throws out fear and overthrows all fears cousins. Nothing can separate you from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.Scripture for thought Ephesians 3:14-21 I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is.

We are the children of God because of what Christ has done for us. Jesus Christ did what we could not do; he reconciled us back to God, with his body and his blood. Right NOW we are FREE from the judgment of God and we have been freed from all the power of the enemy. We have a new life; a life hidden in Christ with God. We have been given the Spirit of God. The Spirit of power, dunamis power, that same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead. We have been given authority, love, and a clear mind all through the same Spirit. Jesus didn't leave us with a spirit of fear, God sent His Spirit into our hearts. We are supposed to drive out these forces that come against the knowledge of God. We have to keep this clear mind. We have it by inheritance, Romans 8:14-17. Claim your mind, claim your peace, sit with the Father sit with the Son and Holy Spirit, and enjoy the presence of the Almighty dwelling with you. Be fueled to get up and go about your business today as you are a child of God and no longer a slave to the enemy like the world.John 17:10-11 All I have is Yours, and all You have is Mine; and in them I have been glorified. I will no longer be in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to You. Holy Father, protect them by Your name, the name You gave Me, so that they may be one as We are one.John 17:14-15 I have given them Your word and the world has hated them; for they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. I am not asking that You take them out of the world, but that You keep them from the evil one.…John 15:19 If you were of the world, it would love you as its own.

The Lord wants to debride us from the corruption and corrosion going on in our souls. Look at this description of wound healing. Taken from the Merck Manuel, Wound hygiene (eg, cleansing, irrigation, and debridement), including thorough examination of the wound and surrounding tissues, promotes uncomplicated healing of traumatic skin wounds and is required prior to wound closure.Wound healing is impaired by various factors (eg, bacterial contamination, foreign bodies, wound ischemia, host factors). All traumatic wounds are assumed to be contaminated. The goal of wound hygiene is to reduce the contaminant burden without causing further tissue damage or introducing more contaminants. Diagnosis and management of foreign bodies in wounds are a critical part of wound hygiene. Occasionally, identified or suspected foreign bodies are deeply seated, requiring referral to a surgical specialist.Proverbs 3:5-6, 7-8Psalm 91:1-16 (1-5)Romans 7:14-25 The good I would do. Do not allow your mind to be choked up.Isaiah 25:1-12 (3-4) Therefore shall the strong people glorify thee, the city of the terrible nations shall fear thee. For thou hast been a strength to the poor, a strength to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat, when the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall.Isaiah 26:1-21 “ (1-4)...Our city is strong! We are surrounded by the walls of Gods salvation. Open the gates to all who are righteous; allow the faithful to enter.

I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.

Isaiah 54 :14-17 I will build you using fairness. You will be safe from those who would hurt you, so you will have nothing to fear. Nothing will come to make you afraid. I will not send anyone to attack you, and you will defeat those who do attack you. “See, I made the blacksmith. He fans the fire to make it hotter, and he makes the kind of tool he wants. In the same way I have made the destroyer to destroy. So no weapon that is used against you will defeat you. You will show that those who speak against you are wrong. These are the good things my servants receive. Their victory comes from me,” says the Lord. God wanted that conversation to bother meWe have to stop just getting along with people and live with a heart like Jesus so that words of wisdom might penetrate.

Loose the bands from your neck you are oppressed for nothing.Isaiah 52:1-6 NCV Wake up, wake up, Jerusalem! Become strong! Be beautiful again, holy city of Jerusalem. The people who do not worship God and who are not pure will not enter you again. Jerusalem, you once were a prisoner. Now shake off the dust and stand up. Jerusalem, you once were a prisoner. Now free yourself from the chains around your neck. This is what the Lord says: “You were not sold for a price, so you will be saved without cost.” This is what the Lord God says: “First my people went down to Egypt to live. Later Assyria made them slaves. “Now see what has happened,” says the Lord. “Another nation has taken away my people for nothing. This nation who rules them makes fun of me,” says the Lord. “All day long they speak against me. This has happened so my people will know who I am, and so, on that future day, they will know that I am the one speaking to them. It will really be me.”It's not too hard for God. The only way out of all these thoughts that would consume us is to get all the way into Christ. No matter how someone else is living, your mind belongs to God. It is a choice to have the mind of Christ, and the only way that we can do that is to forcefully advance the kingdom of God. Matthew 11:11-12 “Truly I tell you, among those born of women there has risen no one greater than John the Baptist. Yet even the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

I don't feel like I stated the point. Our lives were already known in the mind of God. Every scenario of life has already been seen and is already known; we are the ones who make the choice.

A coil spring is a helical-shaped mechanical device that is close-wound or open-wound. Coil springs store mechanical potential energy. A coil spring functions by storing energy in order to release it, absorb shock or maintain force between two surfaces. If you apply too much force, you can stretch a spring beyond its limit which will permanently distort the spring.Hope this ending isn’t too goofy. I did not say what I was fasting from because not all people understand and that’s okay. Scripture application 1 Corinthians 8:9-13 Be careful, however, that your freedom does not become a stumbling block to the weak. For if someone with a weak conscience sees you who are well informed eating in an idol’s temple, will he not be encouraged to eat food sacrificed to idols? So this weak brother, for whom Christ died, is destroyed by your knowledge. By sinning against your brothers in this way and wounding their weak conscience, you sin against Christ. Therefore, if what I eat causes my brother to stumble, I will never eat meat again, so that I will not cause him to stumble.Fasting I’m fasting from something that is not sinful to have, just like it’s not sinful to eat unless we do it in gluttony. Everything is permissible for us but not everything is beneficial. Try fasting from something you could have but it’s become convenient. Try it for 3 days, 7 days, 28, or 1 day that is up to you, and tell the “Lord, You Are My Dwelling Place” to replace what you have removed.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOcyxkU8Aj4

The real reason we love is because God first loved us, but if we stop desiring our first love how can we truly love? We are talking about the one who is LOVE and if we remain in Him the effects of the love we have received of Him will go before us. The Father's continuous love will touch our families and the world.

How can light live with darkness? What harmony can there be between Christ and the devil? How can a believer be a partner with an unbeliever? And what union can there be between God’s temple and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God said: “I will live in them and walk among them. I will be their God, and they will be my people. Therefore, come out from among unbelievers, and separate yourselves from them, says the LORD.

Living by the SpiritGalatians 5:15-17 But if you keep on biting and devouring one another, watch out, or you will be consumed by one another. So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. For the flesh craves what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are opposed to each other, so that you do not do what you want.Romans 13:14 Instead, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the desires of the flesh. Galatians 5:24-25 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us walk in step with the Spirit.Ephesians 2:3 All of us also lived among them at one time, fulfilling the cravings of our flesh and indulging its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature children of wrath.1 Peter 2:11 Beloved, I urge you, as foreigners and exiles, to abstain from the desires of the flesh, which war against your soul.

Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

And of some have compassion, making a difference: And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

God has sent us the Comforter, God has sent His Spirit into our hearts, and we call ABBA, ABBA because we are drawn to our creator, we have this innate understanding we belong to God. We are his children through His Son.
I Do Not Know What To Say But Be Strong In The LORD!We Overcome the World Part 2 Wisdom Is YoursI literally started off with not knowing what to say to us this morning. But when I opened my mouth wisdom seemed to be the theme. We overcome the flesh the devil and the world by faith. What to know, God IS, Jesus IS the Son of God, and God has sent His Spirit into our hearts. We are never alone and wisdom is available all the time. We are just going to have to trust God and go about our business knowing He will direct our paths.This is an excerpt from Going Deeper With The Holy Spirit by Benny Hinn, Pages 11-12. The Spirit of God is the name of the Holy Spirit associated with power, prophecy, and guidance.We first encounter the Spirit of God by this name in Genesis 1 the very first chapter of the Bible. Add creation, it was the Spirit of God who hovered over the face of the waters (Genesis 1:2). Can you imagine the awesome power that was present when the universe was created? The mighty Spirit of God created all things from absolutely nothing!Later the New Testament tells a most remarkable story about what happened when the Lord Jesus healed demon possessed man who was also blind and deaf. The Pharisees accused him of using satan's power to perform such a miracle. The Lord Jesus, who knew their thoughts, declared that he “cast out devils by the Spirit of God” (Matthew 12:28)(1 Samuel 10:10, 2 Chronicles 24:20, Ezekiel 11:24)The Spirit of God is the Spirit of prophecy, he's the Spirit of power, and he is the Spirit of guidance. We see this as in scripture declares in Romans 8:14 “For as many as our lead by the Spirit of God they are the sons of God.”Just think what it means to know that the Holy Spirit is dwelling within you the same Holy Spirit who created the universe, the Holy Spirit who inspired prophecy, the Holy Spirit who cast out demons, and the same Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead. He is living in your heart making resurrection power available moment by moment. Hallelujah for the Spirit of God! And Hallelujah that the spirit of God dwells in you” (1 Corinthians 3:16).

The Faith That Overcomes The World Is Faith Toward GodWe Overcome the World – A True Relationship With God - Dying To SelfThere is so much scripture to support what I am saying that there is not enough room to post it. Our lives are not hidden from God. Every day is known to Him. Let us take hold of our peace, God is that Peace.John 16:31-33 (33) I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.”Psalm 34:11-22 (11-14) Come, you children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the Lord. Who is the man who desires life, And loves many days, that he may see good? Keep your tongue from evil, And your lips from speaking deceit. Depart from evil and do good; Seek peace and pursue it.Job 1:1 There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was blameless and upright, and one who feared God and shunned evil. Job 38:1-5 1Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said: “Who is this who darkens counsel By words without knowledge? Now prepare yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall answer Me. “Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell Me, if you have understanding. Who determined its measurements? Surely you know! Or who stretched the [b]line upon it?John 14:26-27 But when the Father sends the Advocate as my representative—that is, the Holy Spirit—he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I have told you. “I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.1 John 5:4-5 For every child of God defeats this evil world, and we achieve this victory through our faith. And who can win this battle against the world? Only those who believe that Jesus is the Son of God.Revelation chapters 2:1-29; 3:1-22
Psalm 91:1-2 Verse 3 is what happens next after submitting to God. Each of us needs to have a surrendered mind so the Holy Spirit can lead. James 4:5-8Psalm 34:1-11-22 KJV Romans 8:1-17 NLT Life in the Spirit

If we are separated from God, it is in our minds that's what the bible says. Colossians 1:21 This includes you who were once far away from God. You were his enemies, separated from him by your evil thoughts and actions. Romans 8:38-39Luke 10:18-20 …So He told them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. Behold, I have given you authority to tread on snakes and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will harm you. Nevertheless, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”…Colossians 1:13-23 Ephesians 1:1-23 Ephesians 2:6-7 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
Delight Yourself In The LordJEHOVAH TSURI-O LORD MY STRENGTH I pray for the strength of the Lord for you today.Let God's love control you. The glory that shined on the face of Moses is in our hearts. We have a relationship with the living God because of Jesus, and we walk hand and hand with Him. We walk in the spirit and can be spiritually minded at all times because we are surrendered to God in our hearts, and we fear God more than man.God Never FailsIf love never fails and God is love, how can we fail? The love of God is poured into our hearts by the Holy Spirit. Romans 8 says nothing shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. This is a love that cannot fail. Know your defender.Remember to pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

Our relationship with God is personal first. Remain in God’s love.John 15:8-10 This is to My Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, proving yourselves to be My disciples. As the Father has loved Me, so have I loved you. Remain in My love. If you keep My commandments, you will remain in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and remain in His love. What is that thing that brings a dullness into your relationship with the Holy Spirit?God has sent His Spirit into our hearts. Galatians 4:6-7 And because we are his children, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, prompting us to call out, “Abba, Father.” Now you are no longer a slave but God’s own child And since you are his child, God has made you his heir.1 John 4:4 4 You, little children, are from God and have overcome them, because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.Psalm 91:1-16Psalm 46:1-11Isaiah 40:28-31Isaiah 53:4-5Hebrews 12:1-4Gods’ workmanship created in Christ His SonEphesians 2:10 For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance as our way of life.Psalm 19:9 the fear of the Lord is clean and during forever…King James notes the fear of the LORD is reverential trust hatred of evil. Revelation 14:6-71 Corinthians 6:19-20 Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore glorify God with your body.Be ReadyGod has given us His Spirit. Listen to Him, let Him Lead, Let Him guide you into all truth.1 John 2:20 NLT But you are not like that, for the Holy One has given you his Spirit, and all of you know the truth.AMP But you have an anointing from the Holy One [you have been set apart, specially gifted and prepared by the Holy Spirit], and all of you know [the truth because He teaches us, illuminates our minds, and guards us from error].
Scriptures for thoughtThe Greater One Is Living In You1 John 4:4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. KJVJeremiah 32:27 “Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh. Is anything too difficult for Me?Matthew 19:26 Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."Genesis 18:14 Is anything too difficult for the LORD? At the appointed time I will return to you--in about a year--and Sarah will have a son."Numbers 16:22 But Moses and Aaron fell facedown and said, "O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, when one man sins, will You be angry with the whole congregation?"2 Thessalonians 2:16-17 Now our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and God our Father, the One having loved us and having given us eternal comfort and good hope by grace, may He encourage your hearts and may He strengthen them in every good work and word.Laminations 3:14-26 Simply MichMich - I AM Affirmations From The Bible [AUDIO BIBLE SCRIPTURES] Faith Declarationshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9ltaK0UOxc&list=TLPQMTExMjIwMjMX9ECxVzk7Gg&index=1
Ephesians 1:15-23 Ever since I first heard of your strong faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for God’s people everywhere, I have not stopped thanking God for you. I pray for you constantly, asking God, the glorious Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, to give you spiritual wisdom and insight so that you might grow in your knowledge of God. I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope he has given to those he called—his holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance. I also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God’s power for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead and seated him in the place of honor at God’s right hand in the heavenly realms. Now he is far above any ruler or authority or power or leader or anything else—not only in this world but also in the world to come. God has put all things under the authority of Christ and has made him head over all things for the benefit of the church. And the church is his body; it is made full and complete by Christ, who fills all things everywhere with himself.Ephesians 2:4-6 But God is so rich in mercy, and he loved us so much, that even though we were dead because of our sins, he gave us life when he raised Christ from the dead. (It is only by God’s grace that you have been saved!) For he raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus.Ephesians 3:14-21 When I think of all this, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father, the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth. I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God. Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.
And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him… Colossians 3:10Sometimes when we wake up in the morning or maybe even when we go to bed at night, we don't always feel like Christ is with us or that we are even in him. These are the words that came to mind this morning, “Put on the Lord Jesus Christ.” I then reached for the papers with prayers and declarations, and these words caught my eye; I am precious in the sight of my God and I have been considered honorable as it is written in Isaiah 43:4I'm raised up and seated with my brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus in heavenly places as it is written in Ephesians 2:6 I'm treading on serpents and scorpions, with full authority of Christ Jesus over all the power of the enemy and nothing shall by any means hurt me as it is written in Luke 10:19I'm submitted to God, i resist the devil and he flees from me as it is written in James 4:7So as I was meditating on these scriptures and feeling good another feeling came up, it was anxiety and I was led to Joshua 1:1-9 particularly verses 8 and 9. This is how you defeat the enemy, we first submit to God.The meditation of the word is everything for us; It is what brings us into clarity. How can I break this down more? Meditating on the word is not a religious act just some ritual we perform every day, we are pursuing God. We are looking at what the Creator did then and what He is doing now through Jesus Christ, Hebrews 1:1. What we have through Jesus is an active relationship with God by His Spirit who teaches us what is true. John 16:13 However, when the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide you into all truth… So if at any part of the day I should feel alone, fearful, angry, unforgiving, hurt or any other taunt of sins nature rise up, I can say, “Lord I want you, show me your ways. This is how I feel but you are who I want.” And then watch how the Lord redirects your steps.Scripture for thoughtJoshua 1:1-9Deuteronomy 6:5Proverbs 9:10-11Colossians 3:1-17Ephesians 4:24 17-32I pray we would see these scriptures not like something we do laboriously with human mind and effort, but with a great desire for God and to live as His creation. Anytime anything speaks contrary in us, we lay out our soul like an open book before God, so we can be reminded of what is true. Truthfully, WE ARE NEVER ALONE, ESPECIALLY WITH OUR THOUGHTS, God knows them all. Understand that everyone is bear before God, but we want our deeds to be exposed to the light so our motives will be pure. What we think and what we choose to hold on to is a choice. (Hebrews 4:13, John 3:21)

Some scripture for thoughtGenesis 50:19-21 Job 1:6-12 John10:10Jesus gave us Everything. Jesus took our sins, and we no longer have to live a life separated from God’s presence.

Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take along any extra oil. But the wise ones took oil in flasks along with their lamps. 5When the bridegroom was delayed, they all became drowsy and fell asleep. At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’ Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’ ‘No,’ said the wise ones, ‘or there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’ But while they were on their way to buy it, the bridegroom arrived. Those who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet, and the door was shut. Later the other virgins arrived and said, ‘Lord, lord, open the door for us!’ But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I do not know you.’ Therefore, keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.PLEASE DO NOT literally eat the pages of your Bible! Instead, feast your eyes on the words and let the word of God fill you richly.

Putting Off The Old Self Colossians 6:11, Ephesians 4:22Colossians 6:11 When you came to Christ, you were “circumcised,” but not by a physical procedure. Christ performed a spiritual circumcision—the cutting away of your sinful nature.Ephesians 4:21-23 Since you have heard about Jesus and have learned the truth that comes from him, throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception. Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes. Put on your new nature, created to be like God—truly righteous and holy.How can you reckon yourself dead to sin until you know the nature of sin in you? It’s easy to point out the actions of others. Scripture for thoughtThe nature of the soul without ChristEphesians 4:31 Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, outcry and slander, along with every form of malice. Colossians 3:8 But now you must put aside all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips.Hebrews 4:9-13 (9) So there is a special rest still waiting for the people of God. (12-13) For the word of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword, cutting between soul and spirit, between joint and marrow. It exposes our innermost thoughts and desires. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God. Everything is naked and exposed before his eyes, and he is the one to whom we are accountable.Hebrews 14-16 So then, since we have a great High Priest who has entered heaven, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to what we believe. This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses, for he faced all of the same testings we do, yet he did not sin. So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most.CREATION AWAITS THE CHILDREN OF GOD Romans 8:1-39Romans 8:11 The Spirit of God, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you. And just as God raised Christ Jesus from the dead, he will give life to your mortal bodies by this same Spirit living within you.Romans 8:5-6 Those who are dominated by the sinful nature think about sinful things, but those who are controlled by the Holy Spirit think about things that please the Spirit. So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace.1 John 2:11-14 -15-17 Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world. And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever.

Things To Do Every DayOur salvation is personal first, it's right there, in you, it's right there in your home, you are the temple of the living God and your strength is in Jesus.1.Spend time with God! Psalm 5:32.Spend time feeding your spirit on other sources! 2 Timothy 4:133.Spend time in quietness! Psalm 46:10, Isaiah 30:154.Spend time with people who strengthen your soul!5.Take time to randomly pause and thank God throughout the day!6.Every day say no to things that you're not supposed to do and yes to the things you are to do!7.Every day ask to be filled with the Holy Spirit!Hebrews 12:1-3 (2) Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.Psalm 121:1-8 (5-7) The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand. The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night. The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.Galatians 5:13-15Galatians 5:16-26 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.Joni Eareckson Tada's Songs of Suffering: 25 Hymns and Devotions for Weary Soulshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0H9ztsfGfRM&list=TLPQMjUxMTIwMjNPQOa0cbkwEg&index=2The Pilgrim's Progresshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6jcC5plaNk&t=606sPilgrim's Progress: Journey To Heaven | Full Movie | Based on John Bunyan's bookhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPB_GDg9qnk&t=529s

They sent someone in to summon Him, and a crowd was sitting around Him. “Look,” He was told, “Your mother and brothers are outside, asking for You. ”But Jesus replied, “Who are My mother and My brothers?” Looking at those seated in a circle around Him, He said, “Here are My mother and My brothers!

We want to see how the situation is going to work out, and the longer we wait the more anxious we get. These people in John 6 were looking for Jesus because he fed them. They marveled over signs but had no interest in the life Jesus offered themA HARD TRUTHJohn 6:25-69 25-27 Jesus the Bread of LifeWhen they found Him on the other side of the sea, they asked Him, “Rabbi, when did You get here?” Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, it is not because you saw these signs that you are looking for Me, but because you ate the loaves and had your fill. Do not work for food that perishes, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on Him, God the Father has placed His seal of approval.”John 6:57 Just as the living Father sent Me and I live because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on Me will live because of Me.John 6:63 The Spirit gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life. 64 However, there are some of you who do not believe.”John 6: 67-69 So Jesus asked the Twelve, “Do you want to leave too?” Simon Peter replied, “Lord, to whom would we go?

Yes, the popular Bob Marley song jumped in my head. That is because we are in Christ in God, the perfect love, and He makes us one in heart and mind. We have the mind of Christ. 1 Corinthians 2:16 For, “Who can know the LORD’s thoughts? Who knows enough to teach him?” But we understand these things, for we have the mind of Christ. NLTAs I was looking over my words of declaration today, I read I'm filled with the knowledge of God's will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding. His will is my prosperity. This thought whelmed up in my heart when my heart is given to God the will of God is poured in and knowledge and wisdom are infinite.Isaiah 54:16-17Ephesians 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ..Ephesians 1:1-14; 2:1-22 The Temple of the LordEphesians 6:10-12Hebrews 12:1-3James 1:1-51 John 5:16-21 (18)1 John 5:1-51 Corinthians 2:10-16 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

2 Corinthians 3:1-18 (3) Clearly, you are a letter from Christ showing the result of our ministry among you. This “letter” is written not with pen and ink, but with the Spirit of the living God. It is carved not on tablets of stone, but on human hearts.Live like the veil has been removed, trust God with you. 2 Corinthians 3:16-18 But whenever someone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. For the Lord is the Spirit, and wherever the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. So all of us who have had that veil removed can see and reflect the glory of the Lord. And the Lord—who is the Spirit—makes us more and more like him as we are changed into his glorious image.2 Corinthians 4:1-18 Treasure in Fragile Clay Jars 8-10 We are pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not crushed. We are perplexed, but not driven to despair. We are hunted down, but never abandoned by God. We get knocked down, but we are not destroyed. Through suffering, our bodies continue to share in the death of Jesus so that the life of Jesus may also be seen in our bodies.16-18 That is why we never give up. Though our bodies are dying, our spirits are being renewed every day. For our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever! So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever.Cast Down But Not Destroyedhttps://youtu.be/Aq8nsIkkftU
Fall into the love God has for you, and you will love others better.God sent His love into the earth to save His prized possession. One of the reasons we are so hated by the devil is that we have been made in the image of our creator. Genesis 1:16 and God said, let us make man in our image, after our likeness… Power & authority.Genesis 1:27 so God created man in his own image in the image of God… In nature of attributes.Colossians 3:10 and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.If we know God, and what Jesus has done for us, we understand there is a trade for soulish nature, and it’s righteousness.Hebrews 12:11 James 3:18Philippians 1:11Isaiah 32:17Isaiah 53Isaiah 55A war in heavenRevelation 12:10-12 VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION Isaiah 14:12-15Luke 10:17-21 (18) So He told them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.Revelation 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
It is hard to love others the way we are loved by God if we do not understand the love, we are in. First take time to know this great love, YAHWEH IS LOVE and we have stepped into Him through the Son of His love. This love is so intense if we truly set are hearts and minds to know and surrender, we would see the results of Ephesians 3:18-21 And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God. 1 John 4:7-19 James 4:1-10Heals the broken heartIsaiah 61:1-3Genesis Creation of Man Genesis 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.All Souls are mine Ezekiel 18:14We were made a little lower than God Psalm 8: Yet you made them only a little lower than God and crowned theme with glory and honor.

Isaiah 11:2 The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of the shadow of death, a light has dawned.Salvation is personal first. While you may need physical help for something going on in your life, our Father will comfort your heart and mind while you wait. Ephesians 1:19-21 I also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God’s power for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead and seated him in the place of honor at God’s right hand in the heavenly realms. Now he is far above any ruler or authority or power or leader or anything else—not only in this world but also in the world to come. God has put all things under the authority of Christ and has made him head over all things for the benefit of the church. And the church is his body; it is made full and complete by Christ, who fills all things everywhere with himself.Ephesians 2:1-10 (6) For he raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus.1 John 4:12-18 (15-18) If anyone confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. And we have come to know and believe the love that God has for us. God is love; whoever abides in love abides in God, and God in him. In this way, love has been perfected among us, so that we may have confidence on the day of judgment; for in this world, we are just like Him. There is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear, because fear involves punishment. The one who fears has not been perfected in love. 19 We love because He first loved us.Let us breath and trust God!Matthew 6:32-34 For the Gentiles strive after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Today has enough trouble of its own.
WE WERE CREATED BY GOD FOR GODGenesis 2:7 King James Bible, And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.Ezekiel 18:4 Behold, every soul belongs to Me…Ezekiel 37:1-7 The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones, And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry. And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest. Again, he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD. Thus saith the Lord GOD unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live: And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the LORD. So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied…Isaiah 40:28-31 Have you never heard? Have you never understood? The LORD is the everlasting God,the Creator of all the earth. He never grows weak or weary. No one can measure the depths of his understanding. He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless. Even youths will become weak and tired, and young men will fall in exhaustion. But those who trust in the LORD will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.
Live Righteously In The Sight Of GodFall into the abyss of God’s love.No, I am not talking about self-righteousness – living from human wisdom but living from the wisdom that comes from God. God has given us His Spirit (Ephesians 1:15-23)He has sent His Spirit into our hearts. Galatians 4:6-7 And because we are His children, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, prompting us to call out, “Abba, Father.” Now you are no longer a slave but God’s own child. And since you are His child, God has made you His heir.2 Corinthians 1:21-22 21 It is God who enables us, along with you, to stand firm for Christ. He has commissioned us, and he has identified us as his own by placing the Holy Spirit in our hearts as the first installment that guarantees everything he has promised us2 Corinthians 1:22 Amplified Bible …It is He who has also put His seal on us [that is, He has appropriated us and certified us as His] and has given us the [Holy] Spirit in our hearts as a pledge [like a security deposit to guarantee the fulfillment of His promise of eternal life].Video SpotlightLive righteously in the sight of Godhttps://youtu.be/5AaPIdcLVFUThe Baptism of the Holy Spirit by John G.

Psalm 121 The LORD will watch over your coming and going, both now and forevermore.Job 34:29 When he giveth quietness, who then can make trouble?There is a quietness the Lord gives, a stillness in you where you are not troubled, you are not moved by what moves the world. We must learn to live from our spirit. Romans 8:5-6 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Walking with the Holy SpiritI want to say I am not moved by what I see, or hear, but I am. Yet I’m learning to let the Lord show me how to guard my heart and help me with my thoughts. I have guarded myself way too long and it’s only resulted in grief and sorrow, bitterness of soul, murmuring, complaining, and wanting people to die. That’s not God's will for them or me…
Don’t lose sight of what salvation has done for us, Psalm 103:1-8Scripture has given us the wisdom to receive salvation, the salvation that comes by trusting in Christ Jesus. 2 Timothy 3:16- 17 All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work. New Living TranslationJude 1:20-21 A Call to Persevere… But you, beloved, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God as you await the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you eternal life.

Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love; but the greatest of these is love.
Matthew 16:24-25 Then Jesus told His disciples, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me.

Men loved darkness rather than lightJohn 3:19 This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Romans 13:8-14 Owe no man anything, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. 9For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. 10Love worketh no ill to his neighbor: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. Clothe Yourselves with Christ Roman 13:11-14 And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light. Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.Romans 12:9-21 (9-16) Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.

God Is Real And He's Right There In The Midst Of You.More Grace to the humble-soul – Soul ProsperityOur tears will be turned to joy but it’s a tradeoff, we believe what God said over fear, anxiety and anxiousness. We lay down our inability for Gods ability. When we take the heart ache, lack, illness, to the throne of grace we are going to receive what we came for, help as we need it. Hebrews 4:16 So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most. Scripture for thoughtJohn 10:10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I have come that they may have life, and have it in all its fullness.James 4:5-10 Do you think the Scriptures have no meaning? They say that God is passionate that the spirit he has placed within us should be faithful to him. And he gives grace generously. As the Scriptures say, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” So, humble yourselves before God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come close to God, and God will come close to you. Wash your hands, you sinners; purify your hearts, for your loyalty is divided between God and the world. Let there be tears for what you have done. Let there be sorrow and deep grief. Let there be sadness instead of laughter, and gloom instead of joy. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up in honor.We must honor God's words.

Scripture for thoughtThe Holy Spirit is working in us. Isaiah 11:2-5, Galatians 5:22-26 Psalm 19:1-7 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard. Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun, Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race. His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof. The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.I want to add verse 7 because the word of God perfects us, which means it brings us into maturity.

Faith works by love, Galatians 5:6Faith works by the love we are living in. God is love and we are to remain in his love. It is because He first loved us that we are able to love, especially loving others the way the Lord loves us.Correction on what I said about declarations.Scripture for thoughtRevelation 14:6-7 Luke 12:5 (4-6) Fear God Alone2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 John 10:9 John 10:9 Psalm 62:5-8 Galatians 6:1-2
Come on let's be ready to meet Christ in the air.Scripture for thoughtGalatians 5:24-25 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us walk in step with the Spirit. Romans 8:10-15 And if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit, who lives in you. Heirs with Christ Therefore, brothers, we have an obligation, but it is not to the flesh, to live according to it. For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. For you did not receive a spirit of slavery that returns you to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!”

Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray. My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.Psalm 27:4-6 One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in his temple. For in the time of trouble, he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock. And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.Isaiah 57:15-16 For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.

Clear The Threshing FloorHis winnowing fork is in His hand to clear His threshing floor… Matthew 3:12Motives - The Living WordHebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it pierces even to dividing soul and spirit, joints, and marrow. It judges the thoughts and intentions of the heart.(2 Timothy 3:10–17) All Scripture Is God-Breathed James 4:3 And when you do ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may squander it on your pleasures.We know His Name, Don’t we?Psalm 91:14-16 Because he loves Me, I will deliver (you); because he knows My name, I will protect (you). When (you) call out to Me, I will answer (you); I will be with (you) in trouble. I will deliver him and honor (you).

Be careful to observe all the law that My servant Moses commanded you. Do not turn from it to the right or to the left, so that you may prosper wherever you go. This Book of the Law must not depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. For then you will prosper and succeed in all you do.

Loved By God - And Hope Maketh Not AshamedHe (God) chose to give birth to us by giving us his true word. And we, out of all creation, became his prized possession. James 1:18 James 1:2-8,12-21Romans 1:16-17 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, first to the Jew, then to the Greek. For the gospel reveals the righteousness of God that comes by faith from start to finish, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”Romans 5:5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.Romans 5:5 Amplified BibleSuch hope [in God’s promises] never disappoints us, because God’s love has been abundantly poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.1 Corinthians 13:4-7 Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.James 1:2-8,12-21James 1:16-18 So don’t be misled, my dear brothers and sisters. Whatever is good and perfect is a gift coming down to us from God our Father, who created all the lights in the heavens. He never changes or casts a shifting shadow. He chose to give birth to us by giving us his true word. And we, out of all creation, became his prized possession.

Preparing the soul for battle.Luke 21:25-27 The Return of the Son of Man There will be signs in the sun and moon and stars, and on the earth dismay among the nations, bewildered by the roaring of the sea and the surging of the waves. Men will faint from fear and anxiety over what is coming upon the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.…Lamentations 3:14—26 (22-26) Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed, Because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness. “The Lord is my portion,” says my soul, “Therefore I hope in Him!” The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, To the soul who seeks Him. It is good that one should hope and wait quietly For the salvation of the Lord. Ephesians 3:10-11 His purpose was that now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms, according to the eternal purpose that He accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord.John 17:15-191 John 4:18
OUR GOD REIGNS – KING OF HEAVEN AND EARTHI'm going to keep on loving youScripture for thoughtMatthew 11:25 At that time Jesus declared, "I praise You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because ...Genesis 24:3 and I will have you swear by the LORD, the God of heaven and the God of earth, that ...Acts 17:24 The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and ..Nehemiah 9:5-6 …5Then the Levites—Jeshua, Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabneiah, Sherebiah, Hodiah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah—said, “Stand up and bless the LORD your God from everlasting to everlasting: Blessed be Your glorious name, and may it be exalted above all blessing and praise. You alone are the LORD. You created the heavens, the highest heavens with all their host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them. You give life to all things, and the host of heaven worships You. Jesus brought us peace we should do the same.Isaiah 52:7-13 7 How wonderful it is to see a messenger coming across the mountains, bringing good news, the news of peace! He announces victory and says to Zion, “Your God is king!” Those who guard the city are shouting, shouting together for joy. They can see with their own eyes the return of the LORD to Zion. Break into shouts of joy, you ruins of Jerusalem! The LORD will rescue his city and comfort his people. The LORD will use his holy power; he will save his people, and all the world will see it. Be sure to leave Babylonia, all you that carry the Temple equipment. Touch no forbidden thing; keep yourselves holy and leave. This time you will not have to leave in a hurry; you will not be trying to escape. The LORD your God will lead you and protect you on every side.

John 14:23-31John 15:1-7John6:22-29John 17:2-3Ephesians 5:25-27 ...… just as Christ loved the church. He gave up his life for her to make her holy and clean, washed by the cleansing of God’s word. He did this to present her to himself as a glorious church without a spot or wrinkle or any other blemish. Instead, she will be holy and without fault.
I feel like I am jumping out of an airplane or falling backward and the only arms that can catch me are the arms of Christ as I let go of my strength for His. I thought I could handle life but the weight of it crushed me, the shame of it hurt me and sin pushed me into hell separating me from the true source of LIFE. Jesus took the guilt of all mankind when He went to the cross. Let’s live free from the mental strongholds that keep us bound to the feelings of the flesh. Jesus has made us free we are no longer on our own. Galatians 5:1 It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.Scripture for thoughtDeuteronomy 6:5-6 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.

Joel 2:1-2 Blow the ram’s horn in Zion; sound the alarm on My holy mountain! Let all who dwell in the land tremble, for the Day of the LORD is coming; indeed, it is near— day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and blackness. Like the dawn overspreading the mountains a great and strong army appears, such as never was of old, nor will ever be in ages to come.Possess your soul by the study of it, know your ways. That means the way you think, the way you feel, the way you react, know your ways, know you. Because then we can really clean the house.We have been set free from mental bondage. Walking by the Spirit (Ezekiel 36:16–38; Galatians 5:16–26) Romans 8:1-4 Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For in Christ Jesus, the law of the Spirit of life set you free from the law of sin and death. For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful man, as an offering for sin. He thus condemned sin in the flesh, so that the righteous standard of the law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.Stop being blinded by the person next to you.Spotted with the flesh, Jude 1:20-25(21-23) Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. And of some have compassion, making a difference: And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh. The Lord is our shield and defense all around us every day. The word the Lord has spoken to us is in our hearts and minds, we can trust Him; He is here with us every moment. Listen to the song, “I Speak Jesus,” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcmqSfr1ENYMy prayer for us, Lord help us to submit our soul to your will. Help us Lord to receive every word you have said. Help us to know in our heart the intensity of your love for us; So that no matter what anyone else is doing we are not blindsided by their ignorance. but that in all our ways we hear your voice and stand strong with your word in our hearts and mouths ready to speak life rather anyone likes it or not.

Let’s get our pride and emotions in order so that we will be ready for the LORD'S coming. Holding on to offenses will weigh us down, but giving the Lord what concerns us will cause us to walk out our soul salvation in the power of God. We can trust Jesus with everything.Luke 12:35-40 “Be dressed for service and keep your lamps burning, as though you were waiting for your master to return from the wedding feast. Then you will be ready to open the door and let him in the moment he arrives and knocks. The servants who are ready and waiting for his return will be rewarded. I tell you the truth, he himself will seat them, put on an apron, and serve them as they sit and eat! He may come in the middle of the night or just before dawn. But whenever he comes, he will reward the servants who are ready. “Understand this: If a homeowner knew exactly when a burglar was coming, he would not permit his house to be broken into. You also must be ready all the time, for the Son of Man will come when least expected.”Please ForgiveProverbs 19:11 A man's insight gives him patience, and his virtue is to overlook an offense.Proverbs 15:18 NIV A hot-tempered person stirs up conflict, but the one who is patient calms a quarrel.2 Corinthian 2:10 NLT When you forgive this man, I forgive him, too. And when I forgive whatever needs to be forgiven, I do so with Christ’s authority for your benefit, 2 Corinthians 2:9-11 My purpose in writing you was to see if you would stand the test and be obedient in everything. If you forgive anyone, I also forgive him. And if I have forgiven anything, I have forgiven it in the presence of Christ for your sake, in order that Satan should not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes.
I Will Save Those Who Love Me A Constant Salvation Christ in you the hope of glory.Colossians 1:26-28 The mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now has been revealed to His saints. To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. Him we preach, warning every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus. To this end I also labor, striving according to His working which works in me mightily.More than conquers Romans 8:37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.Whatever comes our way we are the redeemed of the Lord. Jesus has gone before us into the heaven and spiritually speaking we are seated in heaven, in Christ, in God and we will be with him forever. We are saved, we are deeply rooted in God through Christ. Revelation 20:10 And the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, into which the beast and the false prophet had already been thrown. There they will be tormented day and night forever and ever. 1 John 2:1 My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father—Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. NIV Psalm 91:9-16 (14) “Because he loves Me, I will deliver him; because he knows My name, I will protect him. Hebrews 12:1-4 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. 2 We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith. Because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now he is seated in the place of honor beside God’s throne. 3 Think of all the hostility he endured from sinful people; then you won’t become weary and give up. 4 After all, you have not yet given your lives in your struggle against sin. Galatians 5:22-25 But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things! 24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there. 25 Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives. 26 Let us not become conceited, or provoke one another, or be jealous of one another. My Prayer, “Father help us to shine as lights in this world.”
In Spirit And In Truth Hebrews 4:13 Jesus answered, “Those who drink this water will get thirsty again, but those who drink the water that I will give them will never be thirsty again. The water that I will give them will become in them a spring which will provide them with life-giving water and give them eternal life.” Hebrews 4:23-24 But the time is coming and is already here, when by the power of God's Spirit people will worship the Father as he really is, offering him the true worship that he wants. God is Spirit, and only by the power of his Spirit can people worship him as he really is.”Fearless loveMental Opposition: For some it may be physical opposition but no matter what type of opposition we face if we're not stationary in God, rooted in Christ we will be thrown off and easily moved by our situations and circumstances. I was told one time through prophecy that there was a root in the ground, but it was not stationary yet. At the time I didn't understand quite what they meant by that but as I went on through the situations and circumstances that life brings us, I found myself in dread and doubt and grief and in fear. The root that was not strong enough yet went deeper into God's love as I gave Him all the cares. I was driven to the place where I could say, Lord, I trust you. This might still be happening, but I trust you, this hurts my heart, but I trust you, thank you, Father, thank you, Lord Jesus. We have to learn to lay everything down before him so the spirit of God can show us how to bear fruit in every season.2 Corinthians 4:7-9 Now we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this surpassingly great power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on all sides, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed.Trust in the LORD with all your heartDeuteronomy 6:5 And you must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength.Peace that surpasses all understanding - Stand Firm in the Lord - He will guard your heart and mind Philippians 4:6-7 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Let The Word Dwell In You RichlyColossians 3:16 Amplified BibleLet the [spoken] word of Christ have its home within you [dwelling in your heart and mind—permeating every aspect of your being] as you teach [spiritual things] and admonish and train one another with all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs with thankfulness in your hearts to God.Colossians 3:12-13 So, as God’s own chosen people, who are holy [set apart, sanctified for His purpose] and well-beloved [by God Himself]Readiness at Any Hour Luke 12:34-36 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

Surrendering self for salvation is the true soul prosperity. John 15:4 Remain in Me, and I will remain in you.

Oh, Father, soul prosperity is mine because who the Son has set free is truly free, and I am free, In JESUS NAME!

The Light Has Shined Into The DarknessThe light of Christ has shined into our hearts and has obliterated the darkness that once held us in bondage to sin. 1 John 3:8 NIV The one who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil’s work.Scripture for thoughtJeremiah 29:11-14Jeremiah 1:4Psalm 42Psalm 41Isaiah 9:1-2Remember this, God is exalted, the enemy is defeated. There is no power in heaven or in the earth greater than the power of one who created all things. All things were made by Him and for Him and all things consist because of Him. We can trust the LORD, and when we do there is NO Darkness that can overtake us because the light of God's presence is shining in and on us.Greater is He who is in you than he that is in the world.The featured site today, KNOWING JESUS, Subject: 25 Bible Verses about Satan, Defeat Of https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/topics/Satan,-Defeat-Of
Trust In The LORD Going into the depths of God's enveloping lovePsalm 37:1-11 (3-7) Trust in the LORD and do good. Then you will live safely in the land and prosper. Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you your heart’s desires. Commit everything you do to the LORD. Trust him, and he will help you. He will make your innocence radiate like the dawn, and the justice of your cause will shine like the noonday sun. Be still in the presence of the LORD, and wait patiently for him to act.Isaiah 40:28—31 (29) He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increases strength.Deuteronomy 6:5 You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.Jude 1:20-25 (20-21) But you, dear friends, must build each other up in your most holy faith, pray in the power of the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in God’s love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.John 15:7 Amplified Bible, If you remain in Me and My words remain in you [that is, if we are vitally united and My message lives in your heart], ask whatever you wish and it will be done for you.Matthew 6:32-34 (32-33) …your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.1 John 4:4 But you belong to God, my dear children. You have already won a victory over those people because the Spirit who lives in you is greater than the spirit who lives in the world.
Colossians 3:4 Your real life is Christ and when he appears, then you too will appear with him and share his glory! GNTScripture for thoughtEphesians 3:14-21Isaiah 40:28-31Colossians 3:1-17Word ConfessionI am still and at peace because the Lord is fighting for me. Exodus 14:14 the Lord shall fight for you, and you will hold your peace.
God, family member, or friend, who comes first? Loving God comes before I can truly love anybody else. Scripture for thought Deuteronomy 6:5 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
Proverbs 9:10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. Deuteronomy 8:6 Therefore you shall keep the commandments of the LORD your God, walking in His ways and fearing Him. Hebrews 4:13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do. Love bears fruit, it reveals the nature of God in you. Galatians 5:22-23 But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things! No anxiousness, No fear just pure love Commit to praying for others and trust God to work in their lives. Do not worry about them. When you give them to the Lord, pick up the peace Jesus gave you. John 14:27 Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled; do not be afraid. We have the heart of the Father, we have the gentleness of the Son Matthew 11:28-30 Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” The fear of man is a real issue in our lives, it can be subtle, or it can be loud. It can be persistent pressing you until it gets its way and its desire is to get you off the path that leads to life. Do not compromise. This path may look lonely, but it is not, the Lord is with you and will add to you shortly.
Luke 12:35-40 Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning; And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately. Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them. And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so, blessed are those servants. And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through. Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.
2 Peter 3:1-15 (8-15) But you must not forget this one thing, dear friends: A day is like a thousand years to the Lord, and a thousand years is like a day. The Lord isn’t really being slow about his promise, as some people think. No, he is being patient for your sake. He does not want anyone to be destroyed, but wants everyone to repent. But the day of the Lord will come as unexpectedly as a thief. Then the heavens will pass away with a terrible noise, and the very elements themselves will disappear in fire, and the earth and everything on it will be found to deserve judgment. Since everything around us is going to be destroyed like this, what holy and godly lives you should live, looking forward to the day of God and hurrying it along. On that day, he will set the heavens on fire, and the elements will melt away in the flames. But we are looking forward to the new heavens and new earth he has promised, a world filled with God’s righteousness. And so, dear friends, while you are waiting for these things to happen, make every effort to be found living peaceful lives that are pure and blameless in his sight. And remember, our Lord’s patience gives people time to be saved.
Sometimes I think that we need to refuse our feelings but at the same time I think that we would be hardened, or be unresponsive, unsensitive, and uncaring to the people around us. But because God has given us his Spirit, we're learning not to live by how we feel but by what we know of the one who created the world and all there is in it. Scripture reference 2 Corinthians 5:7, Ezekiel 36:25-27 We have received the nature of God the very nature of Christ and as we abide in the truth that nature emerges more and more. We begin to bear much fruit because we believe the Lord. Scripture reference John 15:7-12
What does all this have to do with the talk today? We are hardened by the situations and circumstances of our lives, which means that we will not hear the Lord's voice, we will not be caught up in the clouds with him, because the cares of this life have crowded our hearts and minds. If we're going to be crowded let us be crowded with the love of God that shows mercy to the unmerciful.

Sin is crouching at the door, change your mind.Genesis 4:6-7 …“Why are you angry,” said the LORD to Cain, “and why has your countenance fallen? If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you refuse to do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires you, but you must master it.”If it is hard for the righteous to be saved1 Peter 4:18 And, “If it is hard for the righteous to be saved, what will become of the ungodly and the sinner?” Born of the incorruptible seed1 Peter 1:23 NLT For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.NLT For you have been born again, but not to a life that will quickly end. Your new life will last forever because it comes from the eternal, living word of God.Sin is not your nature.Romans 8:1-4 (3) For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful man, as an offering for sin. He thus condemned sin in the flesh…God is love and that nature is in you. 1 John 4:8, Galatians 5:22-25.Acts 26:16-18 (18) To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.2 Corinthians 5:7 Walk by faith and not by sight.Colossians 3:14-17 (14) And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.Psalm 62:1-12Psalm 91:5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flies by day…Psalm 121:1-8Colossians 1:13-141 Peter 5:5-11 (8-9) Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. 9Stand firm against him, and be strong in your faith…Psalm 103:1-8 (1-4)Bless and affectionately praise the LORD, O my soul, And all that is [deep] within me, bless His holy name. Bless and affectionately praise the LORD, O my soul, And do not forget any of His benefits; Who forgives all your sins, Who heals all your diseases; Who redeems your life from the pit, Who crowns you [lavishly] with lovingkindness and tender mercy… Revelation 12:10-12 We overcome by the blood of the lamb and the word.And I heard a loud voice in heaven saying: “Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of His Christ. For the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down—he who accuses them day and night before our God. They have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony. And they did not love their lives so as to shy away from death. Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! But woe to the earth and the sea; with great fury the devil has come down to you, knowing he has only a short time.”…
Lord help us to walk in power today. Scripture for thought1 John 15-19 (18-19) There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear: because fear hath torment. He that fears is not made perfect in love. We love him because he first loved us.John 15:7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.Ephesians 3:16-21 I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God. Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.Hebrews 13:20-21 Now may the God of peace—who brought up from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great Shepherd of the sheep, and ratified an eternal covenant with his blood—may he equip you with all you need for doing his will. May he produce in you, through the power of Jesus Christ, every good thing that is pleasing to him. All glory to him forever and ever! Amen.If we have received the good news then we have entered into God's rest.
Saved For God's Purpose Ephesians 3:10-12 God's purpose in all this was to use the church to display his wisdom in its rich variety to all the unseen rulers and authorities in the heavenly places. This was his eternal plan which he carried out through Christ Jesus our Lord. Because of Christ and our faith in him, we can now come boldly and confidently into God's presence…I will be so glad when we really understand what we are fighting.Hebrews 13:20-21John 17:21-26 Ephesians 2:11-22Ephesians 3:8-12We are spiritually strong, Ephesians 6:10-12“The weapons of our warfare are not fleshly, but they are mighty through God for the pulling down of strongholds. “2 Corinthians 10:3-6Proverbs 10:7Predestined Ephesians 1:5, 1:11, Romans 8:29-30We are God's finished work, His masterpiece.
The Calm SoulI don’t think I will be done with the soul until it completely surrenders to God's will. Our mind, will and emotions scatter too easily. “In patience, we possess our souls.” Scripture for thought Isaiah 30:15 For the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel, has said: “By repentance and rest you would be saved; your strength would lie in quiet confidence— but you were not willing.” Luke 21:18-19 …Yet not even a hair of your head will perish. By your patient endurance, you will gain your souls. Romans 12:2 Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. ...Leaning Into Our Strength Isaiah 12:1-4 And in that day, you will say: “O LORD, I will praise You; Though You were angry with me, Your anger is turned away, and You comfort me. Behold, God is my salvation, I will trust and not be afraid; ‘For YAH, the LORD, is my strength and song;He also has become my salvation.’” Therefore, with joy, you will draw water From the wells of salvation. And in that day, you will say: “Praise the LORD, call upon His name;Declare His deeds among the peoples, Make mention that His name is exalted.Jude 1:20-25 But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. And on some have compassion, making a distinction; but others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire, hating even the garment defiled by the flesh. Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy. To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion, and power, Both now and forever. Amen.
If you have been contaminated by the sins of life, yours, or someone else's I want you to know are free from the power of sin. It can no longer rule our understanding. We have been forgiven and as we continue in this forgiveness of God, he cleanses us from all of our unrighteous ways (sins). We forgive others as Christ has forgiven us and we hold no one hostage in our thoughts, in our will, and in our emotions. We pray for them and let them go, and we trust God, our father, to work out the situation, and circumstance. A reminder, put on Christ and be aware of the weapons of our warfare; our weapons are not fleshly, they are spiritual weapons (2 Corinthians 10:3-6).Scripture for thoughtJude 20-23 But you, dear friends, must build each other up in your most holy faith, pray in the power of the Holy Spirit, and await the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ, who will bring you eternal life. In this way, you will keep yourselves safe in God’s love. And you must show mercy to those whose faith is wavering. Rescue others by snatching them from the flames of judgment. Show mercy to still others, but do so with great caution, hating the sins that contaminate their lives.Jude 24-25 Now all glory to God, who is able to keep you from falling away and will bring you with great joy into his glorious presence without a single fault. All glory to him who alone is God, our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord. All glory, majesty, power, and authority are his before all time, and in the present, and beyond all time! Amen.Revelation 1:1-9 (4-6) Grace and peace to you from the one who is, who always was, and who is still to come; from the sevenfold Spirit before his throne; and from Jesus Christ. He is the faithful witness to these things, the first to rise from the dead, and the ruler of all the kings of the world. All glory to him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by shedding his blood for us. 6He has made us a Kingdom of priests for God his Father. All glory and power to him forever and ever! Amen.2 Timothy 2:3-4 Join me in suffering, like a good soldier of Christ Jesus. A soldier refrains from entangling himself in civilian affairs, in order to please the one who enlisted him.
We press into the kingdom Overtake the violence by violently taking hold of the Kingdom of God. Spiritually speaking we learn to take hold of the wisdom and knowledge of God and Christ. We are hungry and thirsty for this godly life the Lord has offered us.
Scripture for thought Luke 17:20-21 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you. Ephesians 6:10-18 Matthew 11:12 KJV, And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.
Got Questions is a site that answers bible questions. They have some good content that will help you study and become aware of what a particular verse might mean. I encourage each of us to study and use these tools as much as the Holy Spirit leads you to do so. My study question was about the gospel of peace; one of the answers I received was from “Ephesians 6: 15, it says, “And with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.” The New Living Translation words it this way: “For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News so that you will be fully prepared.” The gospel of peace is the message that Jesus gave to those who trust in Him (John 14:27; Romans 10:15). It comes with the assurance from God that we are His children and nothing can snatch us out of His hands (John 10:29; 1 John 5:13). It outlines clearly what is required to become a child of God (1 Corinthians 15:1–6; John 1:12; Romans 10:8–10). Any other message is a false gospel. https://www.gotquestions.org/gospel-of-peace.html
Another great study is Matthew 11:12 What does it mean that the kingdom of God suffers violence? https://www.gotquestions.org/kingdom-God-suffers-violence.html
Glorify God in your heart, in your mind, and mouth. I pray your inner beauty is expressed through love. Faith expresses itself through love; how deep is your love? Compare it to these scriptures Ephesians 3:7-21, Romans 8:28-30,35-39.What does a bride do? She gets herself ready for her groom. She plans for the wedding and prepares herself; she anticipates the day when she will be with her true love forever.Revelation 19:7-9 Let us rejoice and be glad and give Him the glory. For the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His bride has made herself ready. She was given clothing of fine linen, bright and pure.” For the fine linen she wears is the righteous acts of the saints. Then the angel told me to write, “Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.” And he said to me, “These are the true words of God.” Delight yourself in the Lord because He delights in you.Scripture for thoughtIsaiah 61:2-6 He has sent me to tell those who mourn that the time of the LORD’s favor has come, and with it, the day of God’s anger against their enemies. To all who mourn in Israel, he will give a crown of beauty for ashes, a joyous blessing instead of mourning, festive praise instead of despair. In their righteousness, they will be like great oaks that the LORD has planted for his own glory. They will rebuild the ancient ruins, repairing cities destroyed long ago. They will revive them, though they have been deserted for many generations. Isaiah 62:1-5 Because I love Zion, I will not keep still. Because my heart yearns for Jerusalem, I cannot remain silent. I will not stop praying for her until her righteousness shines like the dawn, and her salvation blazes like a burning torch. The nations will see your righteousness. World leaders will be blinded by your glory. And you will be given a new name by the LORD’s own mouth. The LORD will hold you in his hand for all to see— a splendid crown in the hand of God. Never again will you be called “The Forsaken City” or “The Desolate Land.” Your new name will be “The City of God’s Delight” and “The Bride of God,” for the LORD delights in you and will claim you as his bride. Your children will commit themselves to you, O Jerusalem, just as a young man commits himself to his bride. Then God will rejoice over you as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride. The bride of God for the Lord delights in you and will claim you for His bride. We are in God through Christ, and God is love. The depth of God's love in you or me depends on our willingness to trust Him. The love that we are in exceeds us and it touches the hearts of others.

Put your trust in the Lord Spiritually Speaking I get so emotional sometimes it's hard to get all the words out.
Psalm 103:1-8
Psalm 23:1-6 (1-3) The LORD is my shepherd; I have all that I need. He lets me rest in green meadows; he leads me beside peaceful streams. He renews my strength. He guides me along right paths, bringing honor to his name. Lean on the Shepherd. Learn the shepherds voice, Jesus said that his sheep know his voice and because they know the sound of His voice a stranger’s voice they will run from.
Isaiah 54:1-17 (13) I will teach all your children, and they will enjoy great peace.
Isaiah 57:13-19 Let’s see if your idols can save you when you cry to them for help. Why, a puff of wind can knock them down! If you just breathe on them, they fall over! But whoever trusts in me will inherit the land and possess my holy mountain.” God says, “Rebuild the road! Clear away the rocks and stones so my people can return from captivity.” The high and lofty one who lives in eternity, the Holy One, says this: “I live in the high and holy place with those whose spirits are contrite and humble. I restore the crushed spirit of the humble and revive the courage of those with repentant hearts. For I will not fight against you forever; I will not always be angry. If I were, all people would pass away—all the souls I have made. I was angry, so I punished these greedy people. I withdrew from them, but they kept going on their own stubborn way. I have seen what they do, but I will heal them anyway! I will lead them. I will comfort those who mourn, bringing words of praise to their lips. May they have abundant peace, both near and far,” says the LORD, who heals them.

Back To The Place Of Worship I have been upset for so long that I lost my way. Worship is the way of putting God first. The Lord is the refuge, He is our habitation. So, invest your emotions in God first then you will walk in power, and have the strength you need for the day. (Matthew 6:13, 32-34)
Scripture for thought John 3:16-17 Ephesians 6:10-18 Psalm 37:1 Proverb 3:1-8 Matthew 6:32-33 Matthew 11:28-30 Romans 8:20-21For the creation was subjected to futility, not by its own will, but because of the One who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God. Joseph Comforts His Brothers Genesis 50:19-21 But Joseph replied, “Do not be afraid. Am I in the place of God? 20As for you, what you intended against me for evil, God intended for good, in order to accomplish a day like this— to preserve the lives of many people. Therefore do not be afraid. I will provide for you and your little ones.” So Joseph reassured his brothers and spoke kindly to them.…

The LORDS Kindness Did you know that God does not throw people away? People throw people away. Scripture for thought Luke 6:27-37 (36-37) You must be compassionate, just as your Father is compassionate. Do Not Judge Others. “Do not judge others, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn others, or it will all come back against you. Forgive others, and you will be forgiven. Jude 20-25 20 But you, dear friends, must build each other up in your most holy faith, pray in the power of the Holy Spirit, and await the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ, who will bring you eternal life. In this way, you will keep yourselves safe in God’s love. And you must show mercy to those whose faith is wavering. Rescue others by snatching them from the flames of judgment. Show mercy to still others, but do so with great caution, hating the sins that contaminate their lives. Now all glory to God, who is able to keep you from falling away and will bring you with great joy into his glorious presence without a single fault. All glory to him who alone is God, our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord. All glory, majesty, power, and authority are his before all time, and in the present, and beyond all time! Amen. Ephesians 2:1-10 (4-5) But sins; so rich in mercy, and he loved us so much, that even though we were dead because of our sins, he gave us life when he raised Christ from the dead. (It is only by God’s grace that you have been saved!) Ephesians 2:9-10 Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.

What do you think of when you hear first love? That is the word I heard this morning. I hope you will search out what that means for you. Trusting the Lord sends a sweet aroma.
Casting all your cares before the Lord because He cares for you. This is the process in which we will stay spiritually grounded.
Scripture for thought 1 Peter 5:6-11 Philippians 4:4-9 4-5, 4-7, 8-9 Romans 8:6 Luke 12:35 Romans 13:11 10 Virgins Matthew 25:1-13
Settling You Submitting To God First The problems of this life are not meant to bring you down, but to push you up. There is discipline in salvation that discipline teaches us to stay in it. We learn through all the trouble past, present, and future to remain in Christ, that is to remain in Gods love. With every situation we are in Christ in God.
Putting on the New Self Colossians 3:2-4 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.…
Hebrews 12:3-11 Think of all the hostility he endured from sinful people; then you won’t become weary and give up. After all, you have not yet given your lives in your struggle against sin. And have you forgotten the encouraging words God spoke to you as his children? He said, “My child, don’t make light of the LORD’s discipline, and don’t give up when he corrects you. For the LORD disciplines those he loves, and he punishes each one he accepts as his child.” As you endure this divine discipline, remember that God is treating you as his own children. Who ever heard of a child who is never disciplined by its father? If God doesn’t discipline you as he does all of his children, it means that you are illegitimate and are not really his children at all. Since we respected our earthly fathers who disciplined us, shouldn’t we submit even more to the discipline of the Father of our spirits, and live forever? For our earthly fathers disciplined us for a few years, doing the best they knew how. But God’s discipline is always good for us, so that we might share in his holiness. No discipline is enjoyable while it is happening—it’s painful! But afterward there will be a peaceful harvest of right living for those who are trained in this way.
1 Peter 5:5-11 Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble. Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, establish, strengthen, settle you. To him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
I know many people would probably argue with me and say there are many truths, but God created all that there is, seen yet not seen and heard yet not heard. Everything that's been created has been created by God and for God. Without the existence of God, there is nothing. All things consist because of him who is and has always been. God is the Alpha and the Omega the Almighty God.
Scripture for thought Hebrews 12:11-15 Isaiah 12:1-6
The Faith of Enoch Hebrews 11:5-6…5By faith Enoch was taken up so that he did not see death: “He could not be found, because God had taken him away.” For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God. And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who approaches Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.
A People Claimed By The Lord - Full Of Grace Deuteronomy 28:10 Deuteronomy 6:5 John 3:16 John 15:5 John 17:15-19 Full of Grace and Truth 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. Grace and truth are in you because you are in Christ. It is a seed that was planted when you said yes to Jesus being the Head of your life. The situations and circumstances of life are now translated through the word God gave us, not through human wisdom.
I pray that we would know to whom we belong and start living like it not because people see us but because we love God. God gave us His Son so we could be saved from corruption. When we said yes, we received a seed in our hearts. That seed grows as we feed it.
The Lord God has set a table before us in the presence of our enemies. You know what’s interesting to me is that we were once enemies of God in our minds but now we are reconciled through death not our physical death, but Christ's death on the cross. He did this to present us holy, unblemished, and blameless in His presence, Colossians 1:20-22. We are not relying on physical strength and the wisdom we received when we lived like the world. We have sowed this soul into the ground as a seed so we could live through Christ, John 3:17.
We are set, fixed in Christ and the only thing that can take us out is unbelief. This table of the knowledge of God gives us insight and understanding and because we trust Him, the will of God will be done in our life’s circumstances as we apply the truth to it. The truth is in you. Read Ephesians 4:21 and 1 Timothy 3:15-16.
An Act Of Grace Our Salvation Hebrews 1:1-3 Long ago God spoke many times and in many ways to our ancestors through the prophets. And now in these final days, he has spoken to us through his Son. God promised everything to the Son as an inheritance, and through the Son he created the universe. The Son radiates God’s own glory and expresses the very character of God, and he sustains everything by the mighty power of his command. When he had cleansed us from our sins, he sat down in the place of honor at the right hand of the majestic God in heaven.
Lord, I love you, help me to honor you with my life. Your grace is sufficient for me. Whatever I walk through in this life, you are here in me and right here beside me. Father you promised that you would never leave me, that I'd never be alone I thank you for that, Jehovah, Jehovah Nissi. Thank you for that, Jesus, thank you for the life that you've given us. Thank you for the blood that you have given us, thank you for the word that you have poured into our hearts and written on our minds. Thank you for this perfect love this perfect peace, thank you for this wonderful grace, thank you Father for sending your Son.
Never stop telling the Lord how much you love him because the world that he came to save doesn't. But you and I know Him, so we love him with every breath that we breathe because we know where our breath comes from. We know who our help is and we trust him with our lives never stop telling the Lord how much you love him.

Earthly Blessings Ephesians 1:3 All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ.
Matthew 5:5 Berean Literal Bible, Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. Good News Translation, "Happy are those who are humble; they will receive what God has promised! Amplified Bible, “Blessed [inwardly peaceful, spiritually secure, worthy of respect] are the gentle [the kind-hearted, the sweet-spirited, the self-controlled], for they will inherit the earth.
John 15:11 “I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. John 15:1-12
Excerpt from World Challenge, Gary Wilkerson, GOD’S EARTHLY BLESSINGS Gary Wilkerson, October 10, 2016, Moses knew how important God’s blessings were to Israel. His supernatural works had saved their lives — manna from heaven when they faced starvation and water from a rock when their bodies were parched beyond their limits. But Moses recognized that the point of these experiences, beyond their miraculous provision, was to know and trust the compassionate, loving God who bestowed them. Moses’ next statement comes as no surprise: “Please show me now your ways, that I may know you in order to find favor in your sight” (Exodus 33:13). Moses knew that, ultimately, God’s favor wasn’t found in the blessings He provided — it was found in knowing the Lord Himself.

Here is a another good excerpt from GOD FIRST, the teaching of Reverend Younghie Paik. Earthly blessings are good for this world. Heavenly blessings benefit this world and the after-life. When Peter throws his net into the water and catches fish, he receives an earthly blessing. When we do as God commands and see good results, it firms up our faith. We think, “If I do as God commands, things will work out.” It also lays the groundwork for us to receive heavenly blessings. It plants the seeds for heavenly blessings.
When God tells Peter to be a fisher of men, He urges Peter to receive heavenly blessings. When God blesses us in this world, mainly through material wealth, we must invest all our earthly blessings into receiving heavenly blessings. If we apply our earthly blessings to become fishers of men and for the work of the gospel, God continues to shower us with earthly blessings because He knows we will convert those blessings to heavenly work. Gaining material wealth may no longer be a goal in our lives, but God keeps giving it to us because He knows we will use that wealth for heavenly blessings. Use your material wealth and whatever you perceive to be God’s earthly blessings for the gospel!

YOU ARE BORN OF GOD Know that you belong to Christ and know who you are in Him! If anyone tries to separate you from the kingdom, separate rate yourself from them; I am really talking spiritually.
Colossians 1:27 Good News Translation God's plan is to make known his secret to his people, this rich and glorious secret which he has for all peoples. And the secret is that Christ is in you, which means that you will share in the glory of God.
Ephesians 1:3-23 Ephesians 1:13 And you also became God's people when you heard the true message, the Good News that brought you salvation. You believed in Christ, and God put his stamp of ownership on you by giving you the Holy Spirit he had promised.
Ephesians 1:22-23 God put all things under Christ's feet and gave him to the church as supreme Lord over all things. The church is Christ's body, the completion of him who himself completes all things everywhere.
GOT QUESTIONS, What does the Bible say about when God will judge us? https://www.gotquestions.org/judgment.html There are two separate judgments. Believers are judged at the Judgment Seat of Christ (Romans 14:10-12). Every believer will give an account of himself, and the Lord will judge the decisions he made—including those concerning issues of conscience. This judgment does not determine salvation, which is by faith alone (Ephesians 2:8-9) but rather is the time when believers must give an account of their lives in service to Christ. Our position in Christ is the “foundation” spoken of in 1 Corinthians 3:11-15. That which we build upon the foundation can be the “gold, silver, and precious stones” of good works in Christ’s name, obedience and fruitfulness—dedicated spiritual service to glorify God and build the church. Or what we build on the foundation may be the “wood, hay and stubble” of worthless, frivolous, shallow activity with no spiritual value. The Judgment Seat of Christ will reveal this.

SERMON FOR THE HEART R. W. Schambach powerful sermon - Changing the Mind of God https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRdjy2UB45M
God's word goes into our hearts and repairs the wounded soul. His word strengthens and fortifies us so that we're not walking in the wisdom of the world anymore, but we are walking in the wisdom of God. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom knowledge of the holy one is understanding. The Lord does not give us grief, in fact, his word is not grievous. 1 John 5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. KJV
Scripture for thought Psalm 62:1-12 I wait patiently for God to save me; I depend on him alone. He alone protects and saves me; he is my defender, and I shall never be defeated. How much longer will all of you attack someone who is no stronger than a broken-down fence? You only want to bring him down from his place of honor; you take pleasure in lies. You speak words of blessing, but in your heart you curse him. I depend on God alone; I put my hope in him. He alone protects and saves me; he is my defender, and I shall never be defeated. My salvation and honor depend on God; he is my strong protector; he is my shelter. Trust in God at all times, my people. Tell him all your troubles, for he is our refuge. Human beings are all like a puff of breath; great and small alike are worthless. Put them on the scales, and they weigh nothing; they are lighter than a mere breath. Don't put your trust in violence; don't hope to gain anything by robbery; even if your riches increase, don't depend on them. More than once I have heard God say that power belongs to him and that his love is constant. You yourself, O Lord, reward everyone according to their deeds.

1 John 5:3 Amplified Bible For the [true] love of God is this: that we habitually keep His commandments and remain focused on His precepts. And His commandments and His precepts are not difficult [to obey].
The Entrance To Rest Is Jesus
Blameless and simplicity are the words that come to my mind. 2 Peter 3:14 But in keeping with God’s promise, we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells. Therefore, beloved, as you anticipate these things, make every effort to be found at peace—spotless and blameless in His sight.
2 Peter 3:10-15 But the Day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar, the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and its works will be laid bare. Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to conduct yourselves in holiness and godliness as you anticipate and hasten the coming of the day of God when the heavens will be destroyed by fire and the elements will melt in the heat. But in keeping with God’s promise, we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells. Therefore, beloved, as you anticipate these things, make every effort to be found at peace—spotless and blameless in His sight. Consider also that our Lord’s patience brings salvation…
Throwing away all the offenses and living in that humble and gentle spirit of Christ. Don't lose sight of the simplicity of the gospel of Jesus Christ. God sending his own son in the likeness of this sinful flesh delivered us from the corruption of sin in the flesh. So, now we keep ourselves in God's love by being open to the Lord in all of our ways, walking and talking and trusting with every breath we breathe. Do not tremble, the Lord is here, SHALOM!
The voice of the Lord shakes things, read Psalm 29. Let’s see what will happen as we lean on the Lord and not on our own understanding.
Scripture for thought: John 6:32-40 And Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst. But I said to you that you have seen Me and yet do not believe. All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out. For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me. This is the will of the Father who sent Me, that of all He has given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day. And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day.”
Matthew 11:25-30 (28-30) “Come to me, all of you who are tired from carrying heavy loads, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke and put it on you, and learn from me, because I am gentle and humble in spirit; and you will find rest. For the yoke I will give you is easy, and the load I will put on you is light.”
2 Corinthians 2-4 I am jealous for you with a godly jealousy. For I promised you to one husband, to present you as a pure virgin to Christ. I am afraid, however, that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent’s cunning, your minds may be led astray from your simple and pure devotion to Christ. For if someone comes and proclaims a Jesus other than the One we proclaimed, or if you receive a different spirit than the One you received, or a different gospel than the one you accepted, you put up with it way too easily. You Are Delivered From The Bondage Of Corruption
Romans 8:3 New Living Translation The law of Moses was unable to save us because of the weakness of our sinful nature. So God did what the law could not do. He sent his own Son in a body like the bodies we sinners have. And in that body God declared an end to sin’s control over us by giving his Son as a sacrifice for our sins.
1 Corinthians 6:19-20 Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.
Isaiah 55:6-8 Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
Psalm 91:1-4 (3) Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
Matthew 11:28-30 (29) Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. Suggestion: Anyone wanting to add scripture in the comments, please do so we can encourage each other and stand strong, in the Lord. We are in Christ together.
Capturing rebellious thoughts, bringing down high thoughts and destroying prideful thoughts starts with each of our minds. (2 Corinthians 10:4-6) We have been given the power to come into the knowledge of the truth.
Galatians 5:24-25 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there. Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives. Romans 10:8-10 (What God Has put in our hearts and in our mouths.) God has saved our souls and word has entered your heart that is the word we speak. We exercise our salvation by speaking the word that is in our heart. 2 Corinthians 10:3-6 (I like the KJV on this one because this obedience starts with us.) For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.
John 17:14-19 I have given them your word. And the world hates them because they do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world. I’m not asking you to take them out of the world, but to keep them safe from the evil one. They do not belong to this world any more than I do. Make them holy by your truth; teach them your word, which is truth. Just as you sent me into the world, I am sending them into the world. And I give myself as a holy sacrifice for them so they can be made holy by your truth. Let’s make sure we forgive and pray.
Scripture for thought: Revelation 20:10 And the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, into which the beast and the false prophet had already been thrown. There they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.
Isaiah 54:16-17 “Behold, I have created the blacksmith Who blows the coals in the fire, Who brings forth an instrument for his work; And I have created the spoiler to destroy. No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, And their righteousness is from Me,” Says the LORD.
Revelation 12:10-12 And I heard a loud voice in heaven saying: “Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of His Christ. For the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down—he who accuses them day and night before our God. They have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony. And they did not love their lives so as to shy away from death. Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! But woe to the earth and the sea; with great fury the devil has come down to you, knowing he has only a short time.”
(Mark 8:27–30; Luke 9:18–20; John 6:67–71) The gates of hell cannot prevail against the church, Matthew 16:15-19 “But what about you?” Jesus asked. “Who do you say I am?” Simon Peter answered, You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah! For this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by My Father in heaven. And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”
Another note, when God builds the house, we don’t labor in vain, bears the fruit He created it to bear. Psalm 127:1 Except the LORD build the house, they labor in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman wakes in vain.

I see this great submission to God – A TRUE Spiritual Awakening
This Salvation Comes With Everything We Need Abram heard God and believed Him. Genesis 12:1 Then the LORD said to Abram, “Leave your country, your kindred, and your father’s household, and go to the land I will show you. Genesis 12:4 So Abram departed, as the LORD had directed him,….
Psalm 19:1-14 (9) Reverence for the LORD is pure, lasting forever. The Fear of the Lord Proverbs 9:10-11 Perfect Love John 4:17-18
John 4:23 But a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth, for the Father is seeking such as these to worship Him. God is Spirit, and His worshipers must worship Him in spirit and in truth.”
1 John 4:15-18 (16-18) …whoever abides in love abides in God, and God in him. In this way, love has been perfected among us, so that we may have confidence on the day of judgment; for in this world we are just like Him.)
Romans 8:37-39 … “we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
Everything is based on the fact that God IS and He sent His Son and saved us. Salvation is God and we live in Him, in His strength, in His love, in His wisdom, in His understanding, and in His Mercy. The Lord knows our weaknesses and calls us to humble ourselves and surrender to the knowledge of Him. It is our soul that is being renewed and it is made new by knowledge; the knowledge of God and of Jesus our salvation.
Isaiah 57:15 For thus says the One who is high and lifted up, who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: “I dwell in a high and holy place, and with the oppressed and humble in spirit, to restore the spirit of the lowly and revive the heart of the contrite.
Matthew 11:28-30 (29) NIV Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
Philippians 4:5-9 1 Peter 5:6-10 Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you. To Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.
1 John 5:13-15 (13) These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.

James 3:7-18 Taming the tongue Ephesians 6:10-18 2 Corinthians 10:3-6
The weapon is in your heart and in your mouth Romans 10:6-10,13
The weapon of our warfare is our Salvation. We have this knowledge of God and of our Christ in our hearts and on our tongues. It says in the book of Revelation “They overcame the enemy by the blood of the lamb and the word of their testimony. None of this is what we have done and the testimony is what God has said.

Pray for me I need to be able to refine my notes.
The Rich Young Man Mark 10:17–31; Luke 18:18–30; Matthew 19:16-28 Believing what God said will cost you. Family, people you know, strangers, and some church folk will laugh at you, leave you, and call you a fool. But remain in faith in God. Remember what Jesus said to Jairus, Luke 8:50 ONLY BELIEVE!… Persecution is more than physical beatings and death, it's also being talked about, lied on, stolen from, harassed, and discriminated against. But I say this endure like a good soldier always abounding in the truth. Psalm 27:1-2 I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD. Deuteronomy 6:5 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. Proverbs 4:7-8 Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding. Exalt her, and she will promote you; She will bring you honor, when you embrace her. Matthew 5:3 God blesses those who are poor and realize their need for him, for the Kingdom of Heaven is theirs.
Ephesians 3:16-17 I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. Faith toward God is not faith in your ability but in God's ability. Remember what Jesus said, “You of little faith.” It was never about faith in us it’s always been in what God said. Now what did God say to you?
The Lord's unfailing love is deeper than we know and all we should want to know. All wisdom and knowledge and the greater understanding flow in this place where we are unashamed and never abandoned.

Jesus took care of that 1 Corinthians 13:4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
1 Peter 4:8 Amplified Bible Above all, have fervent and unfailing love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins [it overlooks unkindness and unselfishly seeks the best for others]. Proverbs 10:12 Hatred stirs up dissension, but love covers all transgressions. God Is! We need to understand this, He, God is here, He is with and in us. Above everything we think or feel the LORD is Real. The situations and circumstances will disappear but the God of all creation never will. 1 Peter 1:21-23 Through Him you believe in God, who raised Him from the dead and glorified Him; and so your faith and hope are in God. Since you have purified your souls by obedience to the truth so that you have a genuine love for your brothers, love one another deeply, from a pure heart. For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.…
Psalm 57:1-11 (9-11) I will praise You, O Lord, among the nations; I will sing Your praises among the peoples. For Your loving devotion reaches to the heavens, and Your faithfulness to the clouds. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; may Your glory cover all the earth.

Ezekiel 36: Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine holy name's sake, which ye have profaned among the heathen, whither ye went. And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the heathen, which ye have profaned in the midst of them; and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, saith the Lord GOD, when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes.
Titus 3:1-10, (1-7) Remind the believers to yield to the authority of rulers and government leaders, to obey them, to be ready to do good, 2 to speak no evil about anyone, to live in peace, and to be gentle and polite to all people. 3 In the past we also were foolish. We did not obey, we were wrong, and we were slaves to many things our bodies wanted and enjoyed. We spent our lives doing evil and being jealous. People hated us, and we hated each other. 4 But when the kindness and love of God our Savior was shown, 5 he saved us because of his mercy. It was not because of good deeds we did to be right with him. He saved us through the washing that made us new people through the Holy Spirit. 6 God poured out richly upon us that Holy Spirit through Jesus Christ our Savior. 7 Being made right with God by his grace, we could have the hope of receiving the life that never ends.

James 4:5-17 (7-10) So give yourselves completely to God. Stand against the devil, and the devil will run from you. Come near to God, and God will come near to you. You sinners, clean sin out of your lives. You who are trying to follow God and the world at the same time, make your thinking pure. Be sad, cry, and weep! Change your laughter into crying and your joy into sadness. Humble yourself in the Lord’s presence, and he will honor you. NCV
Our transformation saves lives. Remain in Christ and be truly changed.
Romans 13:8-14 (8) Do not owe people anything, except always owe love to each other because the person who loves others has obeyed all the law.
Scripture for thought: James 3:1-18 (11) Does a spring send forth fresh water and bitter from the same opening?
2 Corinthians 3:18 And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.
Romans 8:28-30 And we know that God works all things together for the good of those who love Him, who are called according to His purpose. For those God foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brothers. And those He predestined, He also called; those He called, He also justified; those He justified, He also glorified.
Read Ephesians 1:3-23 Look for the words, “God's possession”, and share how you feel about being God's possession.

HELP! Psalm 121 Topics Affliction, Cheer, Courage, Heart, Oppression, Order, Overcome, Peace, Spoken, Tribulation, Trouble, Victory, Won Know where your help comes from. Our help comes from the Lord who created the heaven and the earth. (Psalm 121) Does our soul know that we have a wonderful counselor? Does it know that its’ life is hidden with Christ in God? (Colossians 3:3). Does the soul know that it has an Almighty God an Everlast Father and Prince of Peace? Stay anchored soul of mine. Why are you downcast Oh my soul? do not be distressed in me. Stay anchored soul of mine, greater is he that is in me than he that is in the world. (Psalm 42:5, 1 John 4:4) Be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might soul of mine. Jesus said I have told you these things so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take courage; I have overcome the world!" John 16:33 Scripture for thought: Isaiah 12:1-2 Isaiah 40:28-31 Isaiah 9:6 John 14:27 John 10 Psalm 121:1-8 Psalm 42:1-11 (5) Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance. Lamentations 3:19-24 18And I said, “My strength and my hope is perished from the LORD: Jeremiah’s Hope Remembering mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood, and the gall. My soul hath them still in remembrance and is humbled in me. This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope. It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore, will I hope in him. 1 John 5:4 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world: and this is the victory that overcomes the world, even our faith. 1 John 4:4 You are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. Romans 12:21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

Faith In Christ Faith Toward God Let’s Not be deceived! Being ready. Will Jesus find faith in us when HE comes? Luke 18:7-9 The Persistent Widow…7Will not God bring about justice for His elect who cry out to Him day and night? Will He continue to defer their help? 8I tell you, He will promptly carry out justice on their behalf. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on earth?” 9To some who trusted in their own righteousness and viewed others with contempt, He also told this parable:… 2 Peter 1:1-12 (2-4) May God give you more and more grace and peace as you grow in your knowledge of God and Jesus our Lord. By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. We have received all of this by coming to know him, the one who called us to himself by means of his marvelous glory and excellence. And because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share his divine nature and escape the world’s corruption caused by human desires. Jude 1:17-24 A Call to Persevere But you, beloved, remember what was foretold by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ when they said to you, “In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow after their own ungodly desires.” These are the ones who cause divisions, who are worldly and devoid of the Spirit. But you, beloved, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God as you await the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you eternal life. And indeed, have mercy on those who doubt; save others by snatching them from the fire; and to still others show mercy tempered with fear, hating even the clothing stained by the flesh. Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you unblemished in His glorious presence, with great joy— to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority through Jesus Christ our Lord before all time, and now, and for all eternity.

Hello everyone this is my husband, Apostle Harry Jackson, speaking from the book of Romans, at at Trinity Communion Church- Sermon title - Freedom In Christ, on July 16 2023
We have the power to live godly in this world.
Suffering as Christians 1 Peter 4:17-19 For it is time for judgment to begin with the family of God; and if it begins with us, what will the outcome be for those who disobey the gospel of God? And, “If it is hard for the righteous to be saved, what will become of the ungodly and the sinner?” So then, those who suffer according to God’s will should entrust their souls to their faithful Creator and continue to do good.…
What are we fighting with? Ephesians 6:10-12 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can make your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world’s darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
2 Corinthians 10:3-4 For though we live in the flesh, we do not wage war according to the flesh. The weapons of our warfare are not the weapons of the world. Instead, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. Isaiah 12:2
Scripture for thought Ephesians 6:10-20 Isaiah 11:1-5 Isaiah 12:1-6 2 Corinthians 10:3-6 Two thoughts for the day: 1. The blessings of the Lord overtake me. 2. Nothing is random.
I want to get my mind in the position to humble itself. by gathering every thought and putting it under my foot. Because there is no thought higher than God's thoughts and there's no ways greater than His ways. We belong to the Lord, and we need everything in our conscious being to trust Him, to rest in Him, to lean on Him, and rely on Him. Now that is faith, that's faith toward God. We are in Christ in God, and He works everything out together for the good of those who love him and are called according to his plan. The Fear of man, and of situations and circumstances is on the path but it's not God's plan that you walk in fear. It is God's plan that we walk by faith and trust that he is with us.
The Lord says I know the thoughts that I think towards you, thoughts of peace and not of evil to bring you to a successful end. (Read Jeremiah 29:11-14) If there is any good in this life I want the Lord to be known. God is who he is, Jesus is the son of God he died and rose again. He came to be our savior and took us beyond the cross. God loves us, and he made one way to come to him and that's through his son. It is all in the knowledge of who God is and in the knowledge of His Son
2 Peter 1:1-8 This letter is from Simon Peter, a slave, and apostle of Jesus Christ. I am writing to you who share the same precious faith we have. This faith was given to you because of the justice and fairness of Jesus Christ, our God, and Savior. May God give you more and more grace and peace as you grow in your knowledge of God and Jesus our Lord. Growing in Faith 3By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. We have received all of this by coming to know him, the one who called us to Himself by means of his marvelous glory and excellence. 4And because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share his divine nature and escape the world’s corruption caused by human desires. 5In view of all this, make every effort to respond to God’s promises. Supplement your faith with a generous provision of moral excellence, and moral excellence with knowledge, 6and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with patient endurance, and patient endurance with godliness, 7and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love for everyone. 8The more you grow like this, the more productive and useful you will be in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9But those who fail to develop in this way are shortsighted or blind, forgetting that they have been cleansed from their old sins.
Begin to thank the Lord for the experience that you are walking through.
My prayer is, Lord, help us to help each other.
Scripture for thought Proverbs 9:10-11, Revelation 14:6-7, Matthew 13:18-23, Mark 11:12-14, 20-25, Ephesians 3:14-21.
(Read Isaiah 55:1-12) The Lord is really talking about the prosperity of our soul as we come to acknowledge Him in all are ways. 12 The lord wants your soul to prosper.

Some trees have roots too close to the surface of the ground, they don't go down deep into the earth. As we trust Jesus our roots grow down into God’s love. Not everyone is on the same spiritual level. Do not beat them up for it, don’t be hard on them and do not by any means allow yourself to be made to feel small when God has called you to come up higher.
It’s one thing to humble ourselves to one another but an entirely different thing to be hurt, or offended over what others do not understand, what they don’t get about you or what they do not see as important. It is so easy to think the wrong way. It's so easy to minimize yourself and let others minimize you. You are not small you're great in this earth because you are in Christ and Christ is in you. We are to grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. (2 Peter 3:18)
Ephesians 3:14-21 2 Peter 3:18 1 Peter 5:5-7 Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble. Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
Psalm 1:2-3 Psalm 27:1,13-14 Hebrews 4: Ephesians 3:14-21 Hebrews 5:8 Even though Jesus was God’s Son, he learned obedience from the things he suffered.
Jeremiah 17:5-14 (5-8) Thus says the LORD: “Cursed is the man who trusts in man And makes flesh his strength, Whose heart departs from the LORD. 6 For he shall be like a shrub in the desert, And shall not see when good comes But shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, In a salt land which is not inhabited. 7 “Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, And whose hope is the LORD. 8 For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, Which spreads out its roots by the river And will not fear when heat comes; But its leaf will be green, And will not be anxious in the year of drought, Nor will cease from yielding fruit.
Pray for me, I need more time to work on this work.
The Parables of the Treasure and Pearl Matthew 13:44-46 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls: Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.
John 5:2-9 Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool with five covered colonnades, which in Hebrew is called Bethesda. On these walkways lay a great number of the sick, the blind, the lame, and the paralyzed. One man there had been an invalid for thirty-eight years. When Jesus saw him lying there and realized that he had spent a long time in this condition, He asked him, “Do you want to get well?” “Sir,” the invalid replied, “I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am on my way, someone else goes in before me.” Then Jesus told him, “Get up, pick up your mat, and walk.” Immediately the man was made well, and he picked up his mat and began to walk

Isaiah 57:14-15 God says, “Rebuild the road! Clear away the rocks and stones so my people can return from captivity.” The high and lofty one who lives in eternity, the Holy One, says this: “I live in the high and holy place with those whose spirits are contrite and humble. I restore the crushed spirit of the humble and revive the courage of those with repentant hearts.
Psalm 62 Psalm 84
We are Filled with the life of God. What is the measure of the gift of God in you? John 15:4 Remain in me, and I will remain in you. Galatians 5:22-23 But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things! Isaiah 55:6-9 (7-8) Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
Romans 8:11 And if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit, who lives in you.
Romans 8:12-14 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
Ephesians 3:19-20 May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God. Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think.
Sanballat and Tobias are mocking spirits they discourage, threaten, and frighten. These are spirits that constantly remind you of what you are not. Their mission is that you do not finish the work. They always address your self-conscious mind.
Do not use your feelings to sense your life. Your feelings need to submit to God in the throne room of grace and not cower before the enemy! The Lord knows our weakness and when we submit to Him, He shows Himself strong. True faith comes from knowing our God, and that comes from hearing about him. We bring down strongholds with the knowledge of the truth. Even your worship is knowledge of what is true. Worship is a weapon of mass destruction to spiritual enemies. It is a place they do not want you to enter because your emotions (feelings) will have found their place of refuge and rest. Worship is the place where feelings can freely express without fear of getting hurt. The reality of the Father and the Son set our hearts in a blaze of desire for the one we will adore forever and ever; we are so in love with the Creator of all things and His love for us that all we want to do is stand on our feet, lift our hands, and lift our voice in reverence to His supremacy. (sovereignty, authority, power, omnipotence)
Scripture for thought: John 17:3 “And this is life eternal that they might know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.
Jeremiah 9:24
My sheep know me John 10:(4-5), 14-16, 27-30 4 When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice. 5 But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will flee from him because they do not recognize his voice.”
Nehemiah 4:1-9 (A mind to work.) Psalm 2:1-12
Romans 10:17 Consequently, faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of Christ.

The blessings of the Lord make me rich, and he adds no sorrow with it. • Get an understanding of how God is working in you. • Everyone has a gift. • I will not be weary; I will not be afraid! • Put on Christ! • Now we stand!
The fears we have are all about our ability. They are all about our strength, our wisdom, and knowledge. Scripture says, is there anything too hard for the Lord? Genesis 18:14 Is anything too difficult for the LORD? At the appointed time I will return to you— in about a year, and Sarah will have a son.” Matthew 19:26 Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." Luke 1:37 For no word from God will ever fail."
The Lord has always had good things in mind for us even though the road may be difficult and long. The Lord is faithful, we just have to be fully persuaded. Romans 4:20-21 Yet he did not waver through disbelief in the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, “being fully persuaded that God was able to do what He had promised”.
Letting it all go, raise your hand to heaven, because you don't know, raise your hand to heaven because God is the strength of your heart. When we raise our hand to God, we are saying not my will but your will be done. When we relinquish our feelings and our thoughts for the Lord’s thoughts and His ways, we worship Him. We are changing our minds, we are in active repentance, and we are open to receiving the help we need.

Restore My Soul To Worship We worship him in spirit and in truth Called to worship Faith comes by hearing… Roman 10:17 Job 33:14-16 For God speaks in one way and in another, yet no one notices. In a dream, in a vision in the night, when deep sleep falls upon men as they slumber on their beds, He opens their ears and terrifies them with warnings… Zachariah 4:6-7 Then he said to me, “This [continuous supply of oil] is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel [prince of Judah], saying, ‘Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit [of whom the oil is a symbol],’ says the LORD of hosts. ‘What are you, O great mountain [of obstacles]? Before Zerubbabel [who will rebuild the temple] you will become a plain (insignificant)! And he will bring out the capstone [of the new temple] with loud shouts of “Grace, grace to it!” AMP John 4:23-24 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” The Holy Spirit knows how to pray: Romans 8:26-27 Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession [g]for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God. Isaiah 53:4-5 Psalm 91:1 Psalm 71:1 In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion.
To Such As These Matthew 19:14 But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them! For the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” The Greatest in the Kingdom Matthew 18:2-4 …Jesus invited a little child to stand among them. “Truly I tell you,” He said, “unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.…

We Have The Mind Of Christ Crown Of Life James 1:12 Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love Him. 1 Corinthians 2:9-16 (16) For who has known the mind of the Lord, so as to instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ. Romans1:19-32 The LORD Speaks to Elijah at Horeb 1 Kings 19:9-13 There Elijah entered a cave and spent the night. And the word of the LORD came to him, saying, “What are you doing here, Elijah?” “I have been very zealous for the LORD, the God of Hosts,” he replied, “but the Israelites have forsaken Your covenant, torn down Your altars, and killed Your prophets with the sword. I am the only one left, and they are seeking my life as well.” Then the LORD said, “Go out and stand on the mountain before the LORD. Behold, the LORD is about to pass by.” And a great and mighty wind tore into the mountains and shattered the rocks before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake there was a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire came a still, small voice. When Elijah heard it, he wrapped his face in his cloak and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave. Suddenly a voice came to him and said, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
The LORD will give you what to say Ezekiel 37:1-4 The hand of the LORD was upon me, and He brought me out by His Spirit and set me down in the middle of the valley, and it was full of bones. 2He led me all around among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, and indeed, they were very dry. Then He asked me, “Son of man, can these bones come to life?” “O Lord GOD,” I replied, “only You know.” And He said to me, “Prophesy concerning these bones and tell them… 1 John 4:18-19 There is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear, because fear involves punishment. The one who fears has not been perfected in love. We love because He first loved us. Romans 8:38-39 1 Peter 5:6-11 (8-9) Be sober-minded and alert. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in your faith and in the knowledge that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kinds of suffering.

He is why we can come to the Father of heaven and earth and lay out our lives.
Romans 1:16-17 I wish I had more time to lay out scripture for us. Pray for my time and resources to do this work. I so want us to be ready to meet Jesus in the air.
Isaiah 2:2-5 (5) Come, O house of Jacob, let us walk in the light of the LORD.
Psalm 89:1-17 (14-17) Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne; loving devotion and faithfulness go before You. Blessed are those who know the joyful sound, who walk, O LORD, in the light of Your presence. They rejoice in Your name all day long, and in Your righteousness they exult. For You are the glory of their strength, and by Your favor our horn is exalted.
1John 1:3-7 (5-7) This is the message we heard from Jesus and now declare to you: God is light, and there is no darkness in him at all. So we are lying if we say we have fellowship with God but go on living in spiritual darkness; we are not practicing the truth. But if we are living in the light, as God is in the light, then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from all sin.

It is not in heaven, that you should need to ask, ‘Who will ascend into heaven to get it for us and proclaim it, that we may obey it?’ And it is not beyond the sea, that you should need to ask, ‘Who will cross the sea to get it for us and proclaim it, that we may obey it?’ But the word is very near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart so that you may obey it. See, I have set before you today life and goodness, as well as death and disaster. For I am commanding you today to love the LORD your God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commandments… Doesn’t that remind you of Romans 10:6-8
The Fullness Of Our Salvation - Throne Of Grace God is our salvation and strength. Learning to rest in him is living in him. Let's live in the fullness of our salvation.
Psalm 91:1-4 Deuteronomy 6:5 2 Chronicles 20:17 Hebrews 4:14-16
We are in Christ. We are not outside of Christ's body; we are His body and He is the head of His Body.
2 Corinthians 4:6 New Living Translation For God, who said, “Let there be light in the darkness,” has made this light shine in our hearts so we could know the glory of God that is seen in the face of Jesus Christ. Colossians 1:13 Amplified Bible For He has rescued us and has drawn us to Himself from the dominion of darkness, and has transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son…

To walk in the spirit is not striving to be excellent, it's not a work of the flesh. Submitting my soul to the word of God is taking hold of the mind of Christ, the way Jesus thinks and not my selfish desires. The Lord knows the desire of every living thing, I do not. So, I trust him and don't lean on my own understanding about whatever situation or circumstance that comes my way. The Lord will always be the strength of my life and I pray the strength of yours as we put our trust in him completely. Again Galatians 5:22-23 is not meant for you to force yourself to obey a law but rather to put whatever you care about into the hands of the father and let his love work through you. Whatever is wrong the Lord knows how to make it right so that he can say many lives.
Isaiah 30:18 so the Lord must wait for you to come to him so he can show you his love and compassion. For the Lord is a faithful God. Blessed are those who wait for his help.
Elijah Prayed 1 Kings 18:36-39 At the time of the evening sacrifice, Elijah the prophet approached the altar and said, “O LORD, God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, let it be known this day that You are God in Israel and that I am Your servant and have done all these things at Your command. Answer me, O LORD! Answer me, so that this people will know that You, the LORD, are God, and that You have turned their hearts back again.” Then the fire of the LORD fell and consumed the sacrifice, the wood, the stones, and the dust, and it licked up the water in the trench. When all the people saw this, they fell facedown and said, “The LORD, He is God! The LORD, He is God!”
Elijah Prayed James 5:17 Amplified Bible Elijah was a man with a nature like ours [with the same physical, mental, and spiritual limitations and shortcomings], and he prayed intensely for it not to rain, and it did not rain on the earth for three years and six months.
Galatians 5:22-25 But the fruit of the Spirit [the result of His presence within us] is love [unselfish concern for others], joy, [inner] peace, patience [not the ability to wait, but how we act while waiting], kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such things there is no law. And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature together with its passions and appetites. If we [claim to] live by the [Holy] Spirit, we must also walk by the Spirit [with personal integrity, godly character, and moral courage--our conduct empowered by the Holy Spirit].
Trusting our Father in everything through the work of Jesus Christ the Son.
Scriptures in for thought Luke 22:28-31 Isaiah 30:18-26 Hebrews 1:3
What are we a reflection of? The word is a perfect reflection because it is what God said. The word of the Lord is put in our hearts and written on our minds.
James 1:16-25 6So don’t be misled, my dear brothers and sisters. 17Whatever is good and perfect is a gift coming down to us from God our Father, who created all the lights in the heavens.d He never changes or casts a shifting shadow.e 18He chose to give birth to us by giving us his true word. And we, out of all creation, became his prized possession.f Listening and Doing 19Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry. 20Human angerg does not produce the righteousnessh God desires. 21So get rid of all the filth and evil in your lives, and humbly accept the word God has planted in your hearts, for it has the power to save your souls. 22But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves. 23For if you listen to the word and don’t obey, it is like glancing at your face in a mirror. 24You see yourself, walk away, and forget what you look like. 25But if you look carefully into the perfect law that sets you free, and if you do what it says and don’t forget what you heard, then God will bless you for doing it.
Scripture for thought Luke 6:41-41 Deuteronomy 6:4-6 Hebrews 4:11-13 Ephesians 3:16
Rich Toward God – The Prayers of The Righteous There's just something about getting our mind stayed on Christ, keeping the mind of Christ having the attitude of Christ, and the heart of Christ this is the mind that will sustain us through this time in this world. God's love is more than we are aware of as these situations and circumstances seem to swirl around us and invade our hearts. We are too easily dissuaded against the promises God has promised. We act as if we are powerless like we have no authority in the situation. Through Jesus, all power has been given to us to overcome all the works of the enemy and that word is what God said.
Scripture for thought 1 Peter 1:23-25 For you have been born again, but not to a life that will quickly end. Your new life will last forever because it comes from the eternal, living word of God. As the Scriptures say, “People are like grass; their beauty is like a flower in the field. The grass withers and the flower fades. But the word of the Lord remains forever.” And that word is the Good News that was preached to you.
Luke 12:1-34 Proverbs 15:28-29 James 5:16-20
Crave Pure Spiritual Milk Growing Deeper
Trust in the Lord with all of your heart, do not lean on your own understanding. Trust the Father's words, he has nothing but life and peace in mind for you he wants to restore the power. He wants to bring us into a place where we are not moved by what we see or what we hear. Those people that live with us the big ones and the little ones somehow, they know how to affect us, and even if they should do it unaware, we are moved by the situations and circumstances that they are walking in and we're troubled, and we're perplexed but the Lord did not give us a spirit of fear, confusion, or doubt. The Lord gave us his Spirit who teaches us all things he'll help us to not lean on our own understanding. The Lord wants us to go deeper, and grow deeper in the knowledge of his grace and that is possible as we submit our cares to him and lean on him. We eagerly await the sound of his voice so that we can walk in this life as the true children of God. We are being born from above not the beneath especially as we keep our eyes on the author and finisher of our faith. Scripture for thought 1 Peter 1:1-25 1 Peter 2:1-3 So get rid of all evil behavior. Be done with all deceit, hypocrisy, jealousy, and all unkind speech. Like newborn babies, you must crave pure spiritual milk so that you will grow into a full experience of salvation. Cry out for this nourishment, 3now that you have had a taste of the Lord’s kindness. Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Ephesians 5:10-13 In conclusion, be strong in the Lord [draw your strength from Him and be empowered through your union with Him] and in the power of His [boundless] might. Put on the full armor of God [for His precepts are like the splendid armor of a heavily-armed soldier], so that you may be able to [successfully] stand up against all the schemes and the strategies and the deceits of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this [present] darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) places. Therefore, put on the complete armor of God, so that you will be able to [successfully] resist and stand your ground in the evil day [of danger], and having done everything [that the crisis demands], to stand firm [in your place, fully prepared, immovable, victorious]. AMP Proverbs 9:10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.
There's Strength In God's Love The amazing thing is that God is love and as we abide in his love we gain confidence toward God and that turns into strength in our souls. Worship point,” Lord, you are awesome Father, there's no one like you in all the earth and I thank you for the salvation that you've given us. Strengthen me with your love Lord STOP BEING TERRIFIED IN THIS LIFE! PUT YOUR MIND ON JESUS. Hebrews 12:1-3 Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses [who by faith have testified to the truth of God’s absolute faithfulness], stripping off every unnecessary weight and the sin which so easily and cleverly entangles us, let us run with endurance and active persistence the race that is set before us, [looking away from all that will distract us and] focusing our eyes on Jesus, who is the Author and Perfecter of faith [the first incentive for our belief and the One who brings our faith to maturity], who for the joy [of accomplishing the goal] set before Him endured the cross, disregarding the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God [revealing His deity, His authority, and the completion of His work]. Just consider and meditate on Him who endured from sinners such bitter hostility against Himself [consider it all in comparison with your trials], so that you will not grow weary and lose heart. God perfects you. Hebrews 13:20—21 Now may the God of peace [the source of serenity and spiritual well-being] who brought up from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood that sealed and ratified the eternal covenant, equip you with every good thing to carry out His will and strengthen you [making you complete and perfect as you ought to be], accomplishing in us that which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen. Philippians 3:3 Amplified Bible for we [who are born-again have been reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, set apart for His purpose and] are the true circumcision, who worship in the Spirit of God and glory and take pride and exult in Christ Jesus and place no confidence [in what we have or who we are] in the flesh—
Wings Of The Wind Born On The Wings Of The Wind Our weakness is destroyed by His love for us, and we are in Him. We've been born again through Christ and right now we are seated in heavenly places in Christ. We live in a physical body but we're truly spiritual beings we just need to learn to live from the secret place. Psalm 91. We learn how to live in the unforced rhythms of grace by the Spirit of Grace. We learn to walk in the spirit and not live in the lust - in the fantasy - in the desires the neediness and the adulterousness of the flesh. God has a plan for our lives and that plan is filled with the Shalom PEACE. That is more than you can think ask or even imagine yeah the Lord shows us these things that are beyond us beyond our thoughts beyond what we could imagine as we abide in him and abide in the truth. It is the Lord who fulfills the desire of every living thing. I am talking about the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace the one who shelters us in His word isn't just life health and strength in this life but it's an everlasting spiritual life in God the father. If we're in the Son and the Son is in the Father then so are we. That's why it's so important to cast all of our cares before the Lord and trust him to carry us through. Isaiah 4:31 but those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like Eagles they will run and not grow weary. they will walk and not faint. John 3:5-8 James 4:7 Parable of the Sower Luke 8:4-15, Matthew 13:1–23; Mark 4:1–20 Isaiah 40:31
2 Corinthians 10:3-7 Romans 8:5 Philippians 4:5-7 John 14:15-17 John 14:27-29 Song Jireh you are enough. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mC-zw0zCCtg I will be content in every circumstance Jireh you are enough, forever enough.
The Lord Makes My Way Perfect The Way Of The Mind Our mind will walk in its own way but forge its own path but what we need is to gird up in the strength of the Lord Jesus. Psalm 18:1-8; 27-36 (32) it is God that girds me with strength and makes my way perfect. Psalm 23:1-6 (3) He restores my soul: he leads me in the past of righteousness for his name's sake. Hebrews 4:12-13 (13) Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight; everything is uncovered and exposed before the eyes of Him to whom we must give account. Romans 8:35-39 (Nothing can separate you from Gods love.) Romans 8:5-6 (6) To be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. It is God working in us to do His will and we can trust Him. Hebrews 13:20-21
We are living in a great salvation a seed has been planted in our gut we've been filled with the life of God. The life we now live in the flesh we now live through the son of God. This soul salvation is awesome, we have complete rest in our soul in everything that is going on in us and around us. We are not moved, we're not perplexed, we're not torn apart, we believe God for everything, and we are not grieving about the issues that we will encounter in this life. We will trust the word that God has sent into our hearts and we will walk out that word. That word is our salvation and salvation is life. Because salvation is God. God is our salvation and strength. Isaiah 12:2 “Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and will not be afraid; for the LORD GOD is my strength and my song, and he has become my salvation.” Romans 10:8-10 Galatians 2:20 New American Standard Bible I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me. 2 Corinthians 4:7-9 We now have this light shining in our hearts, but we ourselves are like fragile clay jars containing this great treasure. His makes it clear that our great power is from God, not from ourselves. We are pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not crushed. We are perplexed, but not driven to despair. We are hunted down, but never abandoned by God. We get knocked down, but we are not destroyed. The Lord knows our needs Genesis 15:1-3 (1) Amplified Bible After these things the word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision, saying, “Do not be afraid, Abram, I am your shield; Your reward [for obedience] shall be very great.”
Jesus came that he might destroy the works of the enemy in our lives. God is exalted and the enemy is defeated. We have life and life more abundantly! We have a shield and a surrounding shield. The Lord is the strength of our lives, all of this, and yet we act like we are powerless against the flesh the devil, and the world. Are we strangers to our God?
Scripture is to strengthen your core. The Supremacy of the Son Colossians 1:15-17 The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in Him, all things were created, things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities. All things were created through Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.
John 10:4-5 John 10:10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I have come that they may have life and have it in all its fullness. John 17:3 Now this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom You have sent. Acts 17:22-27 Matthew 7:21-23 Matthew 25: Luke 13:25 (22-30) 2 Timothy 2:19
There is an old song I remember called Open Arms part of the lyrics is “Now I come to you with open arms hoping you'll see what your love means to me, open arms.” I know a lot of old songs go through my head sometimes, but when they do my heart is in awe with our creator and not with any physical person on the earth.
I guess that means for me that there is no love on this earth that could compare to the depth of the love that God has for me, but I never compare people to God. I just expect everyone who says I love God to love God as much as I do if not more because He first loved us. 1 John 4:7-10 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love does not know God, for God is love. In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. 10In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
1 Samuel 15:29 He who is the Glory of Israel does not lie or change his mind; for he is not a human being, that he should change his mind. Titus 1:2 in the hope of eternal life, which God, who cannot lie, promised before time began.
Hebrews 7:21 but Jesus became a priest with an oath by the One who said to Him: "The Lord has sworn and will not change His mind: 'You are a priest forever.'"
Numbers 23:19 God is not a man, that He should lie, or a son of man, that He should change His mind. Does He speak and not act? Does He promise and not fulfill?
1 Chronicles 29:11 Yours, O LORD, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the splendor and the majesty, for everything in heaven and on earth belongs to You. Yours, O LORD, is the kingdom, and You are exalted as head over all.
Ezekiel 24:14 I, the LORD, have spoken; the time is coming, and I will act. I will not refrain or show pity, nor will I relent. I will judge you according to your ways and deeds,' declares the Lord GOD

Peace In The Midst Of The Storm. Jesus was asleep in the back of a boat while the storm surged. It must have been pretty bad because the disciples thought they would die.
I want to sleep in the boat like Jesus.
We are all a part of the great commission, miracles signs, and wonders are a part of living in the kingdom of God. Let's get beyond our souls.
The same power and authority that is in Jesus is in us.
Jesus Calms the Storm Luke 8:22 One day Jesus said to His disciples, “Let us cross to the other side of the lake.” So He got into a boat with them and set out.
23 As they sailed, He fell asleep, and a windstorm came down on the lake, so that the boat was being swamped, and they were in great danger. 24 The disciples went and woke Him, saying, “Master, Master, we are perishing!”
Then Jesus got up and rebuked the wind and the raging waters, and they subsided, and all was calm. 25 “Where is your faith?” He asked. Frightened and amazed, they asked one another, “Who is this? He commands even the winds and the water, and they obey Him!”
We are married to Christ. He truly loves His bride He takes care of each of us as we are a part of Himself (His body) not like a building made with bricks.
Read Ephesians 5:25-30
Scripture for thought Matthew 5:3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 1 John 4:7-8 1 John 4:13-20 (18) There is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear because fear involves punishment. The one who fears has not been perfected in love. We love because He first loved us. Forgive others their sins! Yes, I know it hurts. But God sent his son into this world to save the whole world through His Son. We that have received the Son have been forgiven. The Lord expects us to forgive others as He has forgiven us.
Let God complete the work in you just trust Him.
Zechariah 4:8-10 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying, “The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house, and his hands will complete it. Then you will know that the LORD of Hosts has sent me to you. For who has despised the day of small things? But these seven eyes of the LORD, which scan the whole earth, will rejoice when they see the plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel.” Isaiah 6:1,3 Ephesians 3:17-18 Romans 8:18-19

Willingly we give our soul over to the one who created it. We are known in the mind of the creator. He sees our struggles and knows how to perfect what concerns us. we can trust God to keep our souls. Isaiah 57:16 For I will not contend forever, Nor will I always be angry; For the spirit would fail before Me, And the souls which I have made.
My thoughts The soul tries to negotiate with God. Casting every emotion before the Lord.
Scripture for thought Psalm 138:8 The LORD will accomplish what concerns me; Thy lovingkindness, O LORD, is everlasting...
Mark 14:37-38 Then Jesus returned and found them sleeping. “Simon, are you asleep?” He asked. “ Were you not able to keep watch for one hour? Watch and pray so that you will not enter into temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak.”
We exist because we were created by God. Our purpose is in the mind of the creator. When we receive salvation, we discover our real purpose, and it is lived out through the knowledge of Him who loves us. How High How Wide How Deep Is The Love Of God… Sin starts young. The word of God is a shield for us. The word of God is a shelter for us. The word of God sanctifies our hearts and minds. Why, because he loves us.
Confession: Father, because of Your Word I am an overcomer. I overcome the world, the flesh, and the devil, by the Blood of the Lamb and the word of my testimony (1 John 4: 4, Revelation, 12:11) I put on the full armor of God: faith, truth, righteousness (right living), peace, the word of God, and all prayer.
Scripture for thought: Ephesians 3:16-21 I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God. Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.
Psalm 62 Trust in The LORD At All Times The Longing Soul “A calm resolve to wait for the salvation of God”, is the title I read above Psalm 62 in the Bible. I was thinking about this as we have salvation we do not have to wait for it. We have a salvation that's a working salvation it is already operating in us. The more we surrender our will for God's will and take his ways over the way we feel and think the more our soul is transformed into its original pattern God intended. Jesus has made it possible for a reset of our souls. Our souls trust in God, leans on God, rolls all cares, we have peace in the one who is peace. The one who created us keeps us and keeps us from being corrupted by evil.
It is a trust thing The more our soul is renewed in who God is the more rest there is in us. We cannot be moved because we understand that we are in His presence and cannot be snatched from it. We know in our gut God IS. and this is something we absolutely must know the God who is, is who he is and we stand firm in what we know about him who is and will always be Scripture for thought Psalm62:1-12 (8) Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah. Matthew 6:32-33 (33) Seek first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness.
Unpluckable SoulBuild Your House LORDThe urban dictionary describes unpluckable as a permanent position fixed or attached to that can't be removed. In a sentence, I live a life of unpluckable faith.Isaiah 57:14-19 (14-15) And it will be said, “Build it up, build it up, prepare the way, take every obstacle out of the way of My people.” For thus says the One who is high and lifted up, who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: “I dwell in a high and holy place, and with the oppressed and humble in spirit, to restore the spirit of the lowly and revive the heart of the contrite.Meaning of Contrite Feeling regret and sorrow for one's sins or offenses; penitent.Matthew 26:40-41 Then he returned to the disciples and found them asleep. He said to Peter, “Couldn’t you watch with me even one hour? Keep watch and pray, so that you will not give in to temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak!”John 10:27-30 My sheep listen to My voice; I know them, and they follow Me. I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one can snatch them out of My hand. My Father who has given them to Me is greater than all. No one can snatch them out of My Father’s hand. I and the Father are one.”Ephesians 2:10 For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.New living translation says it like this, “For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.”
We are building a house to the LORD.Hebrews 3:5-6 And Moses indeed was faithful in all His house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which would be spoken afterward, 6but Christ as a Son over His own house, whose house we are if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope ]firm to the end.Hebrews 3:1-6The Lord restores my soul The Lord leads me in paths of right living for his namesake. (Psalm 23)2 Corinthians 5:17Proverbs 9:10-11Philippians 4:5-7Hebrews 4:11Isaiah 6:5-7 Then I said: “Woe is me, for I am ruined, because I am a man of unclean lips dwelling among a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of Hosts.” Then one of the seraphim flew to me, and in his hand was a glowing coal that he had taken with tongs from the altar. And with it he touched my mouth and said: “Now that this has touched your lips, your iniquity is removed, and your sin is atoned for.”Prayer: Lord, help us to come into the knowledge of the truth.Confessions from Charles Capps ministry:I AM filled with the knowledge of God's will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding.

Despair causes you not to hope.Anger causes you not to hope.Why so downcast oh my soul Psalm 42:1-11 (11) Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why the unease within me?

I Believe What You Have DoneMy sheep know my name…John 10:1-18 (4-5) When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice. But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will flee from him because they do not recognize his voice.”How many voices should be strange to us? The answer, The flesh, the devil, and the world.Being Full Of Your GoodnessExodus 33:12-19 (19) The LORD replied, “I will make all my goodness pass before you, and I will call out my name, Yahweh, before you.

I Want My Soul To Prosper Part 2Matthew 11 28-30 Then Jesus said come to me all you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you.

Trust God and What Jesus did for us on the cross. Let’s know this and understand because this is the base of our salvation, this is the strength of our salvation. Do not let anyone or anything move you from faith toward God. Read Hebrews 6:1 in the NLTThe Lord loves us, and he wants to pour that love into our hearts. He wants to write that love on our minds. The Lord has given us the power to have a new mind and it's up to us to lay down all of our cares and examine our thoughts because our thoughts and our ways are not his ways. Isaiah 55:6-9The way to a new mind is through knowing the Father and understanding what Christ has done for us. Know God's love for you and do not let yourself be moved from His love no matter what happens in this current life. Psalm 94:19 When anxiety overwhelms me, Your consolation delights my soul. … Ephesians 4:23...Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes. Romans 12:2 Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect. NLT1 Peter 1:13 Therefore prepare your minds for action. Be sober-minded. Set your hope fully on the grace to be given you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. John 4:23-24 But a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth, for the Father is seeking such as these to worship Him. God is Spirit, and His worshipers must worship Him in spirit and in truth.”Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.John 3:16-173 John 2 Beloved, I pray that in every way you may prosper and enjoy good health, as your soul also prospers. John 4:1-38Ephesians 4:11-15Ephesians 4:20-24 (23-24) Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes. 24 Put on your new nature, created to be like God—truly righteous and holy. Hebrews 6:1 So let us stop going over the basic teachings about Christ again and again. Let us go on instead and become mature in our understanding. Surely we don’t need to start again with the fundamental importance of repenting from evil deeds and placing our faith in God.IF WE ARE NOT ROOTED IN JESUS WE ARE NOT IN LOVE.
Show Your Witness No More ExcusesWe act like we are being pushed around by people but it’s really an inner conflict with the soul. The soul (thoughts, will, and emotions) is still trying to make excuses for its behavior which causes our life not to be hidden in Christ. We are the light of the world but have become dim bulbs because of the life we live in the physical body.1 John 1:5-7 Walking in the LightAnd this is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you: God is light, and in Him, there is no darkness at all. If we say we have fellowship with Him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.Encouraging video: Grace For Purpose https://youtu.be/WTJtHseHSsQWE ARE UNITED TOGETHER FOREVER IN GOD'S LOVE
I have this longing to be consumed with the love of God or should I say stay in the love of God. He covers us with his blood, He sanctifies us with his word. His word is a shield and surrounding shield and our hearts give way to his voice as it echoes into our spirit.Scripture for thoughtPhilippians 3:1-3 Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord. It is no trouble for me to write the same things to you again, and it is a safeguard for you. Watch out for those dogs, those workers of evil, those mutilators of the flesh! For it is we who are the circumcision, we who worship by the Spirit of God, who glory in Christ Jesus, and who put no confidence in the flesh.Romans 8:10-11 in Christ lives within you, so even though your body will die because of sin, the spirit gives you life because you have been made right with God. The spirit of God, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you. And just as God raised Christ Jesus from the dead, he will give your mortal bodies by this same Spirit living within you.Romans 8:1-39 Romans 8:28, 35-392 Corinthians 1:22Nehemiah 8:10 John 15:7Isaiah 12:1-6James 4:7-10Jude 20-23 But you, beloved, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God as you await the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you eternal life. And indeed, have mercy on those who doubt; save others by snatching them from the fire; and to still others show mercy tempered with fear, hating even the clothing stained by the flesh.1 John 5:13-16Billye Brim Warning of Coming Storm: Time to Prepare www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQ6kNtDe2oU

I pray for a more upbeat message, it's just that we seem to be consumed with whatever is going on in our lives. The Lord has not given us a spirit of fear but his spirit who teaches us everything. Whatever we don't know, whatever we don't understand we're not grieved by it. Grief leads to destruction, the destruction of our souls. Grief and sorrow get into the stomach and destroy the body; it destroys the mind, will, and emotions. But we have the Holy Spirit whom God has sent into our hearts. He teaches us how to live in the constant grace and mercy of God’s love, the love that has no measure. We are in the Almighty God. Let’s trust Him today with our life.Psalm 91:1-18Romans 5:1-5 (3) patient in tribulationPsalm 27:4-14Psalm 84:1-12Hebrews 12:1-4Hebrews 12:12 “Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;”Philippians 4:5-7Isaiah 53:4-5John 10:10Blogspot: https://getthewordinyourface.blogspot.com/2023/05/i-desire-to-behold-beauty-of-lord-my-so.html
Psalm 8:1-9Isaiah 30:15Luke 10: 1-22(10: 17-20We have been called to Christ and have the same strength in us. We can accomplish far more than we think but we have limited ourselves. Put your confidence in the Almighty who can strengthen you every time. We all have personal situations that stand out in our thoughts and those thoughts can become our focus. If these thoughts continue, they will destroy you and others. The mind of Christ is love, mercy, goodness, kindness, patience, self-control, it is forgiveness it is full-out grace. Yes, God hates sin, and we should hate it too, but we do not hate people because we know what temps the world. We have a job to do, and it is time to be kingdom minded.When we lean on the Lord strength comes and we can do like the seventy that went out in Luke chapter ten, we can be about kingdom business. Our lives are a reflection of Christ in this world.
Sanctify The Lord In Your Heart1 Peter 3:14-16 But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. “Do not fear what they fear; do not be shaken.” But in your hearts sanctify Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give a defense to everyone who asks you the reason for the hope that is in you. But respond with gentleness and respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that those who slander you may be put to shame by your good behavior in Christ. For it is better, if it is God’s will, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil.Scripture for thought:Philippians 4:5-9Isaiah 11:2-5Galatians 5:24-26 and read the fruit the spirit bears in our spirit, Galatians 5:22-23. When we acknowledge that the Lord is with us in every moment, we will be able to produce this fruit in our lives.Stay encouraged.
Here are some words Jesus said in the book of John Abide in me, abide in my love, if you love me you will keep my words.Scripture for thoughtsJohn 14:15John 15:7Proverbs 3:1-8Let me know if the volume is too low. Please and thank you.Love to all, and stay in Christ's love.
Abide In My LoveWorship is a key to abiding in God's love. The worship I’m talking about is total reverence for God. Acknowledge that you and I exist in him.We have thought about our situations too long, too hard, and too much. We have allowed the situations and circumstances of this life to cloud or should I say to crowd our minds. We are overcome with the cares of this life and have forgotten the way that leads to life.
Be encouraged. Stay in God’s love and trust Him.The Lord has made a promise to keep your heart and mind through all things. Do not be afraid, do not murmur or complain; pursue peace even when others will not. The Lord is your strength wherever you go. Philippians 2:12-16 Therefore, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed, not only in my presence but now even more in my absence, continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God who works in you to will and to act on behalf of His good purpose. Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may be blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and perverse generation, in which you shine as lights in the world as you hold forth the word of life…Think about Psalm 119:81-88The Lord establishes our hearts and minds with his words. Hebrews 8:10Berean Standard BibleFor this is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord. I will put My laws in their minds and inscribe them on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they will be My people.Amplified Bible“FOR THIS IS THE COVENANT THAT I WILL MAKE WITH THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL AFTER THOSE DAYS, SAYS THE LORD: I WILL IMPRINT MY LAWS UPON THEIR MINDS [even upon their innermost thoughts and understanding], AND ENGRAVE THEM UPON THEIR HEARTS [effecting their regeneration]. AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE.Establish us in your love Lord.
We are in the one who overcame everything. "We are more than conquers through him who loved us. " Romans 8:37Romans 10:8-10Luke 10:17-20Psalm 91:9-16Psalm 23:1-6Romans 8:35-39I almost want to apologize for throwing out so much scripture but if it helps us grow up more in the spirit then I will just let it be what it is.
God Works In All ThingsRomans 8:28-30 And we know that God works all things together for the good of those who love Him, who are called according to His purpose. For those God foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brothers. And those He predestined, He also called; those He called, He also justified; those He justified, He also glorified.…The Truth Will Set You FreeJohn 8:30—36 As Jesus spoke these things, many believed in Him. So He said to the Jews who had believed Him, “If you continue in My word, you are truly My disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” “We are Abraham’s descendants,” they answered. “We have never been slaves to anyone. How can You say we will be set free?” Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, everyone who sins is a slave to sin. A slave is not a permanent member of the family, but a son belongs to it forever. So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.
Joshua 1:6-9 “Be strong and courageous, for you are the one who will lead these people to possess all the land I swore to their ancestors I would give them. Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the instructions Moses gave you. Do not deviate from them, turning either to the right or to the left. Then you will be successful in everything you do. Study this Book of Instruction continually. Meditate on it day and night so you will be sure to obey everything written in it. Only then will you prosper and succeed in all you do. This is my command—be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.”
Complete In ChristColossians 2:6-15 Therefore, just as you have received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him, established in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness. See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, which are based on human tradition and the spiritual forces of the world rather than on Christ. For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity dwells in bodily form. And you have been made complete in Christ, who is the head over every ruler and authority.In Him you were also circumcised, in the putting off of your sinful nature, with the circumcision performed by Chris and not by human hands. And having been buried with Him in baptism, you were raised with Him through your faith in the power of God, who raised Him from the dead.When you were dead in your trespasses and in the uncircumcision of your sinful nature, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our trespasses, having canceled the debt ascribed to us in the decrees that stood against us. He took it away, nailing it to the cross! And having disarmed the powers and authorities, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.More scripture for thought: John 14:15-21
You are a creative suite therefore be careful of what you meditate on. What we see with our eyes and what we hear with our ears we should be able to discern in the spirit, not through the flesh because we may get consumed by what we see and what we hear. FEAR NOT!When Mary believed the word of the Holy Spirit and the power of the highest rested on her and she conceived, and Jesus the Son of God was born.

Proclaiming the Lord's name is not just saying Jesus, it is knowing the one who is our salvation. It is knowing what is in the name of the Lord and what’s in that name is life and peace, what’s in the name is protection, His name is comfort, it's help when you hurt, and when you're confused it's clarity. All of this is derived from The Lord's great love for us.Scripture for thoughtsExodus 33:12-19Exodus 33:19 Then He said, “I will make all My goodness pass before you, and I will proclaim the name of the LORD before you. I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.Exodus 34:5-7 Now the LORD descended in the cloud and stood with him there and proclaimed the name of the LORD. And the LORD passed before him and proclaimed, “The LORD, the LORD God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth, keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children and the children’s children to the third and the fourth generation.”Psalm 91:1 God is Love, and everything we need for life is in this love.Song of meditation: I Speak Jesus, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpGYImM_VeM
THE HELMET - GOD'S ARMORThe knowledge of our salvation is pivotal. We have been invited into the presence of God and our hearts rest in His hand. We are so secure in Christ that we cannot be moved; we cannot be plucked from His hand. You and I belong to God. Knowing Him means knowing salvation because God is salvation. His words are a shield for us, His words sanctify us and deliver us from evil. As children of God, we should all be awareAre you under attack and don’t know it? We need to be aware of where the attack begins and how the enemy sets out to distract, hinder and snare us. It is written the devil has come to steal kill and destroy. Ephesians 6:10-13 A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle, you will still be standing firm. Scripture for thought:Ephesians 6:14-18John 10:10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I have come that they may have life and have it in all its fullness
As children of God, we have the power to overcome the warfare in our minds through spiritual weapons. If you're currently struggling mentally, know that the attack is real. Our enemy is a powerful spirit, who prowls around seeking to destroy us. However, we can't combat this spirit using physical weapons, as our souls aren't equipped to handle this battle. Instead, our weapons are spiritual and mighty through God, allowing us to tear down strongholds (2 Corinthians 10:4).I'm so grateful that the Lord has planted His word deep within my heart. To me, it's unfathomable how anyone could live without it. God's word is what sanctifies us, as John 17:17 says, "Sanctify them by the truth; Your word is truth." It's the Lord who instills His word within us, writing it on our minds and hearts. The more we rely on Jehovah's wisdom, the greater our understanding will be in all matters.We are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works. Part of our good work is to demolish strongholds through God's power and the authority of Christ. With Him on our side, we can confidently face any spiritual battle that comes our way.Scripture for thought: Colossians 1:7-22Thanksgiving: Thank you, Lord, for giving us your way of thinking. Thank you, Lord, for taking us out of the darkness. Thank you, Lord, that our names are written in heaven.Song of worship: Thank you Jesus for the blood applied.

Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good; Blessed is the man who trusts in Him!Psalm 37:1-40Scripture for thought “The humble will be glad”, Psalm 34:2 My soul shall make its boast in the LORD; The humble shall hear of it and be glad.Hebrews 4:14-161 John 4:15-18 If anyone confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. And we have come to know and believe the love that God has for us. God is love; whoever abides in love abides in God, and God in him. In this way, love has been perfected among us, so that we may have confidence on the day of judgment; for in this world, we are just like Him. There is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear because fear involves punishment. The one who fears has not been perfected in love. Enter the place of rest, know the LORD, and understand His ways.
Strength RenewedPsalm 110:1-7 The LORD said to my Lord, “Sit in the place of honor at my right hand until I humble your enemies, making them a footstool under your feet.” The LORD will extend your powerful kingdom from Jerusalem you will rule over your enemies. When you go to war, your people will serve you willingly. You are arrayed in holy garments, and your strength will be renewed each day like the morning dew. The LORD has taken an oath and will not break his vow: “You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.” The Lord stands at your right hand to protect you. He will strike down many kings when his anger erupts. He will punish the nations and fill their lands with corpses; he will shatter heads over the whole earth. But he himself will be refreshed from brooks along the way. He will be victorious.Isaiah 40:28-31 Our place of safety is living in the secret place of the Most High (Psalm 91).Psalm 139:1-24 (7) But let him who boasts boast in this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am the LORD, who exercises loving devotion, justice and righteousness on the earth—for I delight in these things,” declares the LORD.Jeremiah 23:24 But let him who boasts boast in this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am the LORD, who exercises loving devotion, justice, and righteousness on the earth—for I delight in these things,” declares the LORD.Jeremiah 9:24 Let us stop living through the lens of the flesh. 1 Samuel 16:7 “…The LORD does not see as man does.

The Mountain Of The LORDI was about to listen to an audiobook “The Pursuit of God, by AW Tozer” and I paused for a moment to pray, I said, “Lord help me hear what will satisfy my soul and quench the thirst of my soul”. We can turn on a lot of things that are about Christ and still not here HEAR what is being said therefore the soul does not get satisfied. The Lord satisfies the desire of every living thing therefore it's good to ask the Lord and not assume that you will hear what the Lord is saying just because you turned something on and have it playing in the background.Scripture meditation: Isaiah 11:9-10 Nothing will hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain, for as the waters fill the sea, so the earth will be filled with people who know the LORD. “And in that day there shall be a Root of Jesse, Who shall stand as a banner to the people; For the Gentiles shall seek Him, And His resting place shall be glorious.”Isaiah 25, In this mountain (6-7) And in this mountain The LORD of hosts will make for all people A feast of choice pieces, A feast of wines on the lees, Of fat things full of marrow, Of well-refined wines on the lees. And He will destroy on this mountain The surface of the covering cast over all people And the veil that is spread over all nations. Isaiah 26:1-21Jeremiah 9:23-24 (24) NLT We really need to search this out and get the right understanding of God.But those who wish to boast should boast in this alone: that they truly know me and understand that I am the LORD who demonstrates unfailing love and who brings justice and righteousness to the earth and that I delight in these things. I, the LORD, have spoken!Isaiah 55:1-3 For the thirsty soulMatthew 4:1-17Hebrews 6:18-20 John 14:1,27Psalm 145:15-17 …15The eyes of all look to You, and You give them their food in season. 16You open Your hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing. 17 The LORD is righteous in all His ways and kind in all His deeds.… Recommended reading or listening, audiobook The Pursuit of God: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygb7vLPhpfcMeditation Song: Give Thanks, by Don Moen:https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=give+thanks+don+moen
He Watches Over You Trustworthy Anchor For Our SoulsHebrews 3:12-15 Be careful then, dear brothers and sisters. Make sure that your own hearts are not evil and unbelieving, turning you away from the living God. You must warn each other every day, while it is still “today,” so that none of you will be deceived by sin and hardened against God. For if we are faithful to the end, trusting God just as firmly as when we first believed, we will share in all that belongs to Christ. Remember what it says: “Today when you hear his voice, don’t harden your hearts as Israel did when they rebelled.” Hebrews 4:9-16 So there is a special rest still waiting for the people of God. For all who have entered into God’s rest have rested from their labors, just as God did after creating the world. So let us do our best to enter that rest. But if we disobey God, as the people of Israel did, we will fall.For the word of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword, cutting between soul and spirit, between joint and marrow. It exposes our innermost thoughts and desires. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God. Everything is naked and exposed before his eyes, and he is the one to whom we are accountable.Christ Is Our High PriestSo then, since we have a great High Priest who has entered heaven, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to what we believe. This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses, for he faced all of the same testings we do, yet he did not sin. So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most.Hebrews 6:16-20 Now when people take an oath, they call on someone greater than themselves to hold them to it. And without any question that oath is binding. God also bound himself with an oath, so that those who received the promise could be perfectly sure that he would never change his mind. So God has given both his promise and his oath. These two things are unchangeable because it is impossible for God to lie. Therefore, we who have fled to him for refuge can have great confidence as we hold to the hope that lies before us. This hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls. It leads us through the curtain into God’s inner sanctuary. Jesus has already gone in there for us. He has become our eternal High Priest in the order of Melchizedek.Songs for meditation: You Lift Me High, www.youtube.com/watch?v=0iNAELCs03U
The LORD Is Our AnchorHebrews 6:18-20 So God has given both his promise and his oath. These two things are unchangeable because it is impossible for God to lie. Therefore, we who have fled to him for refuge can have great confidence as we hold to the hope that lies before us. This hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls. It leads us through the curtain into God’s inner sanctuary. Jesus has already gone in there for us. He has become our eternal High Priest in the order of Melchizedek.Psalm 27:1-14 (4-6) One thing I have desired of the LORD, that will I seek:That I may dwell in the house of the LORD All the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in His temple. For in the time of trouble, He shall hide me in His pavilion; In the secret place of His tabernacle, He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock. And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me; Therefore, I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD.Let’s speak God's will into our lives:I am anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with Thanksgiving I let my request be made known to God. And the peace of God surpasses all comprehension, will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:6-7).I choose to meditate on anything that has virtue or is praiseworthy. I think about things that are true, noble, just, pure, lovely, and of good report (Philippians 4:8).
O, LORD LISTEN Desiring ELOHIMDavid a man after God's own heart.Acts 13:22 After removing Saul, He raised up David as their king and testified about him: ‘I have found David son of Jesse a man after My own heart; he will carry out My will in its entirety.’Psalm 119:169-176 O LORD, listen to my cry; give me the discerning mind you promised. Listen to my prayer; rescue me as you promised. Let praise flow from my lips, for you have taught me your decrees. Let my tongue sing about your word, for all your commands are right. Give me a helping hand, for I have chosen to follow your commandments. O LORD, I have longed for your rescue, and your instructions are my delight. Let me live so I can praise you, and may your regulations help me. I have wandered away like a lost sheep; come and find me, for I have not forgotten your commands.The words of the LORD are like honey.Psalm 19:10 They are more desirable than gold, even the finest gold. They are sweeter than honey, even honey dripping from the comb.That they may be one.John 17:21-23 that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one: I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me.
Bruised For UsWe have been made right with God through Jesus Christ. We are now Christ's seed; His children do not let that drop. The Lord has given us Life Abundantly. That means shalom peace, wholeness, and rest for our soul in every area of this life. We have peace with the Father because of Jesus Ephesians 1:3-6 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms. For He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless in His presence. In love, He predestined us for adoption as His sons through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of His glorious grace, which He has freely given us in the Beloved One.Isaiah 53:1-12 (3-6) He was despised and rejected—a man of sorrows, acquainted with deepest grief. We turned our backs on him and looked the other way. He was despised, and we did not care. Yet it was our weaknesses he carried; it was our sorrows that weighed him down. And we thought his troubles were a punishment from God, a punishment for his own sins! But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed.All of us, like sheep, have strayed away. We have left God’s paths to follow our own.Yet the LORD laid on him the sins of us all.

Now let’s be kept by our Salvation.Declaration: 1. As I live in God my love grows more perfect. I can face him with confidence on the day of judgment because I live like Jesus here in this world (1 John 4:17-18).1 John 4:15-19 If anyone confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. And we have come to know and believe the love that God has for us. God is love; whoever abides in love abides in God, and God in him. In this way, love has been perfected among us, so that we may have confidence on the day of judgment; for in this world we are just like Him. There is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear, because fear involves punishment. The one who fears has not been perfected in love. We love because He first loved us.Declaration: 2.

Isaiah 61:1-3 (3) To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.2 Timothy 2:20-22 A large house contains not only vessels of gold and silver but also of wood and clay.

OUR HIGH TOWERThere is a resting place that we long for. Jesus is that resting place is resting place. The Lord is our mercy seat where our heart rests. Psalm 18:1-3 I will love thee, O LORD, my strength.

I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so, shall I be saved from mine enemies.Scripture for thought: Luke 10:18-21MosesExodus 34:5-7 Then the LORD came down in the cloud and stood there with him and proclaimed his name, the LORD.

His word is our shield and surrounding shield.God bless all those who hear and go beyond the cross.Hebrews 11:1 New King James Version Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.Amplified BibleNow faith is the assurance (title deed, confirmation) of things hoped for (divinely guaranteed), and the evidence of things not seen [the conviction of their reality—faith comprehends as fact what cannot be experienced by the physical senses].Psalm 23Psalm 62Psalm 121:1-8Psalm 37Proverbs 3:1-82 Chronicles 20:1-26John 17:14-17We are in this world and not of it.

Paradox: A statement that seems to go against common sense but may still be true. : a false statement that at first seems true. A person or thing having qualities that seem to be opposites. Paradoxical.Without the word we live in a paradox, we are uncertain. We must be sure of what we hope for and confident about what we do not yet see. Genesis 3 presented a paradox, Genesis 3:1-3 Now the serpent was more crafty than any beast of the field that the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden? The woman answered the serpent, “We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden, but about the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden, God has said, ‘You must not eat of it or touch it, or you will die.’ ”Scriptures for thoughtHebrews11:1-3 Now faith is the assurance of what we hope for and the certainty of what we do not see. This is why the ancients were commended. By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.James 1:8 Their loyalty is divided between God and the world, and they are unstable in everything they do.James 4:8 Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.My ThoughtsI want to be, I need to be, I am certain of what I ask for, and confident that it is God's will for me. I'm so glad that God our father has given me something to hope for. I'm so glad that he's allowed me to lack because this need is something that only he can supply. My hope is in you Lord, you already knew that I was in need and have placed everything that I need in heaven for me. I agree with your word for my life. So father thank you in the name of Jesus, for the goodness you have desired for us we agree and say, let that be. Whatever our needs are the Father has placed them in heaven for us to say it and believe it.Time with the Lord and expectation are key.CHARLES CAPPS | CURE FOR FEAR DOUBT AND UNBELIEF PART 1,2,&3https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_N_TnH-WXQ&list=TLPQMDMwNDIwMjNaIjmd8NJFiQ&index=7
Have you allowed your heart to be troubled?John 14:26-27 (27) Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.Matthew 4:15Galatians 5:24-25Ephesians 5:25-27 (25…) Christ loved the church and gave himself for it; that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.Romans 8:13-17When we do not give our minds to Christ we live in sin.
I thank God that He does not allow us to be consumed when we remember Him. The wisdom and power of God are right here for us. We are in Christ and the knowledge of God's will with wisdom and spiritual understanding has been handed to us. It has been given to us to know the mystery of the Kingdom of God. It is our responsibility to submit to God. He calls and we come near. No burden in our life is greater than the power that is in us. The Holy Spirit will transform our lives as we lay out our lives before him and take up this word of truth. Living in the truth is better than living in a lie. Lamentation 3:19-26 “Remember my affliction and wandering, the wormwood and the gall. Surely my soul remembers and is humbled within me. Yet I call this to mind, and therefore I have hope: Because of the loving devotion of the LORD we are not consumed, for His mercies never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness! “The LORD is my portion,” says my soul, “therefore I will hope in Him.” The LORD is good to those who wait for Him, to the soul who seeks Him. It is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the LORD.”Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”James 1:1-5, 4:7
Mud is washed away by the word.The Water of Life is the Word of God. It is the Word that flows from the throne of grace. Grace is what God does. He is full of mercy and grace. Psalm 1:1-6Psalm 37:1-8The House on the Rock Matthew 7:24-27Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain fell, the torrents raged, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because its foundation was on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not act on them is like a foolish man who built his house on sand.

Blinded By The Situation And Circumstances.Know when you are weak.Do not let offenses have you.Get yourself ready to be caught up with Christ. How can we be caught up with Christ if we are so caught up with the situations and circumstances of this life? We are the children of God, and the Lord is our help.The Lord sees and knows everything about everyone; there is nothing ELOHIM our Father does not know.
“Lest you be wearied and faint in your minds.”Hebrews 12:1-3 (3) Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.Isaiah 41:10 Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.Lamentation 3: 19-26 (22-23) Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.
There Is Fear In The ValleyI'm not talking about the low and high elevations of the earth. I am thinking about Psalm 23 and understanding that we are walking in this world in a low place. I am thinking about Psalm 103:11 For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.Psalm 23:1-6 {A Psalm of David.} The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. The LORD preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anoints my head with oil; my cup runs over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.Ephesians 2:5-7 made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in our trespasses. It is by grace you have been saved! And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages He might display the surpassing riches of His grace, demonstrated by His kindness to us in Christ Jesus.…Ephesians 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms.
The Lord may not answer everything the way that we feel it should be answered but he answers in such a way that we are kept in his plan. The Lord has plans of peace for us, and not evil.Bring your cares to the Lord Proverbs 4:5-8 Get wisdom, get understanding; Do not forget my words or turn from them. Do not forsake wisdom, and she will preserve you; love her, and she will guard you. Wisdom is supreme; so acquire wisdom. And whatever you may acquire, gain understanding. Prize her, and she will exalt you; if you embrace her, she will honor you.Matthew 6:32-34.Psalm 23:1-6Ephesians 3:16-21Proverbs 4:5-8 Get wisdom, get understanding; Do not forget my words or turn from them. Do not forsake wisdom, and she will preserve you; love her, and she will guard you. Wisdom is supreme; so acquire wisdom. And whatever you may acquire, gain understanding. Prize her, and she will exalt you; if you embrace her, she will honor you.Let Christ be formed in you, I am really saying let God's words fill your heart and let them be on your mind. Remember Romans 8:6 “to be spiritually minded is life and peace.”
Hebrews 6:19 New Living TranslationThis hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls. It leads us through the curtain into God’s inner sanctuary.TOGETHER FOREVER WITH YOU IN LOVE - IN HIM WHO IS ALL TOGETHER LOVELY.
My greatest desire is that we would go around doing the work of the Lord. Yet we must learn how to stay on the narrow path that leads to life. Jesus talked about this narrow path in Matthew 7:13-14. I am pushing hard for us to not allow ourselves to be consumed with the cares and the affairs of this life in order that we may be caught up with the Lord when he calls. The world will go on in its sinful state it can't help it, but we do not have to peer into the affairs of the world and get caught up in it. Let’s bring all our cares before the Lord so our minds will not become weary.Scripture meditationJohn 10:10Hebrews 4:14-16John 4:26, 39-42Psalm 16:11You have made known to me the path of life; You will fill me with joy in Your presence, with eternal pleasures at Your right hand.Isaiah 35:8And there will be a highway called the Way of Holiness. The unclean will not travel it--only those who walk in the Way--and fools will not stray onto it.Matthew 7:13Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.You, We, and I Have work to do in this life no matter what our background is. We have all been called to do good works just like Jesus. Please read Acts 20:19-28 and again don't let this life weary your heart and mind. Take all that troubles you to the cross but go beyond the cross. Remember you are an ambassador in this life you are between heaven and earth. Think about that one.
This is the way, walk in it. The word of God will always point the way to life. Believe in the Lord's promises. Before you were born the Lord had a plan for your life, surrender to His plan.Scripture for thought:Hebrews 4:1-16Psalm 23:1-6The word of God will always point to the direction that leads to life because the word is living and active.
Let Your Light Shine Good worksChildren of lightMatthew 5:14-16 You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a basket. Instead, they set it on a stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.Romans 8:20-22 For the creation was subjected to futility, not by its own will, but because of the One who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God. We know that the whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until the present time.James 4:6-7 But He gives us more grace. This is why it says: “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.” Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.Hebrews 4:14-16 (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.Ephesians 5:8-10 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light, for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness, and truth. Test and prove what pleases the Lord.John 6:53-55
I keep hearing the words, spiritual awakening.Scripture for thought:Psalm 24:1 The earth is the LORD’s, and the fullness thereof, the world and all who dwell therein.John 1:15-16 John testified concerning Him. He cried out, saying, “This is He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me because He was before me.’ From His fullness, we have all received grace upon grace.
Let us get full! Full of God’s grace.John 1:14-17 The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the glory of the one and only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth. John testified concerning Him. He cried out, saying, “This is He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me because He was before me.’ From His fullness, we have all received grace upon grace. For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.ONE LOVE ONE FAITH ONE FATHER OF US ALL WE ARE IN THIS TOGETHER.
I'm stuck on the Lord gives life, and that he gives us life in such abundance. Real life comes from the life giver, Jesus came to give us spiritual life. To live in the spirit is to have freedom. Freedom from living in this spiritual world where we are no more than ants and easily crushed. When we come to Christ and allow the Holy Spirit to be our teacher, we learn to bring every thought to the obedience of God's word. our emotions are no longer bringing us into the captivity of the flesh. We learn to put our soul in its place by the Spirit of LIFE. The soul is second place to our spirit our spirit is connected to the Holy Spirit.When we come sit down with the Lord and read the bible the word ignites us, it ignites us to the fear of the Lord. The true fear of the Lord is reverential trust and hatred for evil. You are free from living with a host of spiritual enemies, they do not have power over you. We are in the world and not of it, we are born from above, we are in Christ Jesus, we are spiritual beings in physical bodies and we need to start living from where we are seated in Christ Jesus Ephesians 2:5-6. God is spirit and those who worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
But God is so rich in mercy, and he loved us so much that even though we were dead because of our sins, he gave us life when he raised Christ from the dead. (It is only by God’s grace that you have been saved!) For he raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus. Ephesians 2:4-6 NLT
I want to be ruled by the Spirit of LIFE.If you have chosen Christ, then the Spirit of Life is in you and will guide you into what is true. You are no longer under the curse of sin but have been freed by Jesus. Let us let God’s Spirit show us how to live this spiritual life so we are no longer ruled by the nature of sin.Scripture for thought:Isaiah 53Isaiah 11:2-5Genesis Chapters 7, 8 and 9 Romans 8:5-6 Those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh; but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit. The mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peaceEphesians 1:3-5, 17-23Genesis 6:5 Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great upon the earth and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was altogether evil all the time. Genesis 8:21When the LORD smelled the pleasing aroma, He said in His heart, "Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his heart is evil from his youth. And never again will I destroy all living creatures as I have done.
Consumed With The Affairs Of LIFERun and do not be where weary walk and do not be faint, cast all your care on the Lord because he cares for you.Scripture for thought:2 Timothy 2:1-4John 15Hebrews 4: 14-16James 4:12 (1-12)Go for the crown of life, by staying in God’s love and you will go beyond the cross.
Life is in that time that you spend with the Lord the Wonderful Counselor, Prince of Peace. The salvation of God has saved you from all the mental heaviness and stress. The burden belongs to the LORD. Everything started in the spirit, and everything will end in the spirit.The Prayer of FaithJames 5:16-18 Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power to prevail. Elijah was a man just like us. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth yielded its crops.…Isaiah 55:7-11Galatians 4:6-7 And because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father!” So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, you are also an heir through God.…2 Chronicles 20:12-25Oh, I pray that we would know the Lord is our peace, and the peace He is, is living in us. We are in Jesus, when we trust him we will no longer rely on how we feel or on what we see with our eyes and hear with our ears, but we live by our spirit and are led by the Spirit. The Spirit of God gives spiritual life and knows how to quicken our mortal bodies (restore the soul to God's original pattern.)Let us humble ourselves under the mighty hand of God.
WE ARE NOT SMALL - GO DO SOME GOOD.Jeremiah 1:4-10Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying: “Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you; Before you were born, I sanctified you; ordained you a prophet to the nations.” Then said I: “Ah, Lord God! Behold, I cannot speak, for I am a youth.” But the Lord said to me: “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ For you shall go to all to whom I send you, And whatever I command you, you shall speak. Do not be afraid of their faces, For I am with you to deliver you,” says the Lord. Then the Lord put forth His hand and touched my mouth, and the Lord said to me: “Behold, I have put My words in your mouth. See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out and to pull down, to destroy and to throw down, to build and to plant.”Scripture for thought: Mark 4: 31-32John 4:23-24 Ephesians 2:10 For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance as our way of life. BSBFor we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. NIVFor we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. NLT2 Corinthians 10:3-6 (4-5) For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds: Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God…
The seed of death is a word that did not come from God. Our father has given us life through Jesus Christ. God's son has given us life and life more abundantly. Jesus destroyed the works of the devil. We speak life to ourselves and over everything that concerns us. The only death we speak is that over the works of the enemy. When we accept the words of the devil, we accept the words of death. Speak life.1 Peter 1:23 For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God. NIVEphesians 2:1-7 And you were dead in your trespasses and sins, in which you used to walk when you conformed to the ways of this world and of the ruler of the power of the air, the spirit who is now at work in the sons of disobedience. All of us also lived among them at one time, fulfilling the cravings of our flesh and indulging its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature children of wrath. But because of His great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in our trespasses. It is by grace you have been saved! And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages He might display the surpassing riches of His grace, demonstrated by His kindness to us in Christ Jesus.We are in ChristJohn 17:15-19-20-26 (20) Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.Abide in the word and don't allow the seeds of death in your mind.
If we listen to fear, we will never produce a good work in this world. Do not listen to fear give it to the one who overcame it.I came across this prayer online.A prayer against fearDear heavenly father, I am afraid. I don't want this. I can't control my fear. But you can help me. You tell me “Fear not” But how? Show me how to live without fear. Let me find courage, and strength, in your victory on the cross, and your resurrection. In this truth, let me feel your love. Upon this truth, let me build a strong character to resist evil. I trust in you, Jesus. Scripture for thought:Romans 8:38-392 Timothy 1:7Joshua 1:7-9John 15:7
We are not living out a religion. We are living in a relationship with God.For all the unsaved folks PLEASE say yes to the Lord and let Father give you LIFE. All the trouble that is in this life can not have you.Scripture for thought:Psalm 27:11 Teach me your way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of my enemies. 13-14 I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.Psalm 23:1-6Hebrews 12:3Romans 8:Hebrews 6:3John 16:33 I have told you these things so that in Me you may have peace. In the world, you will have tribulation. But take courage; I have overcome the world!”Nehemiah 2:18-20 Nehemiah Inspects the Walls…I also told them about the gracious hand of my God upon me, and what the king had said to me. “Let us start rebuilding,” they replied, and they set their hands to this good work. But when Sanballat the Horonite, Tobiah the Ammonite official, and Geshem the Arab heard about this, they mocked us and ridiculed us, saying, “What is this you are doing? Are you rebelling against the king?” So I answered them and said, “The God of heaven is the One who will grant us success.
Scripture for thought:Naaman Cured of Leprosy 2 Kings 5:1-14; Luke 17:11-19John 8:31-36 (31-32) So He said to the Jews who had believed Him, “If you continue in My word, you are truly My disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”Hebrews 12:1-4Consider Jesus and what he went through so you will not be wearied in your mind.Have a great love and thirst for God.
I really want us to be of one mind. Not my mind, but the Lords. His thoughts are higher than our thoughts, and His ways are higher than our ways. Jehovah God knows this life better than we do, we can trust Him.Scripture for thoughtEphesians 3:17Galatians 4:4-92 Corinthians 10:3-6Isaiah 55:9Hebrews 12: Weary mind
It is God's nature to help you, it's God's nature to love you. That does not make him wishy-washy. God is not a man that he should lie nor the son of man that he should change his mind about you. He created us for His purpose. Let’s be filled with the nature of God.Help us Lord to see ourselves in your Son. Lord take us beyond the cross.Suggested scripture reading:Galatians 4:1-9 (Be aware there is a spiritual world around you. We are spirit and flesh; live in the spirit.)Ephesians 1:17-23 (We are in Christ and have authority in the body)Galatians 5:1-25 (Take possession over what’s going on in you.)We have not been given a spirit of fear. We have been given the Spirit of LIFE.Let the Lord Be known.
My greatest desire is that we be one in Christ Jesus. I desire that we would be ready for Jesus when he comes and that we would not be deceived by the things going on in the world. The devil comes to steal kill and destroy and he distracts us so easily. I feel like we are those sheep being led to a slaughter we don't even bleat out or fight, we go willingly into darkness into this place of obscurity. We continually wrestle with our understanding. We are not a people who fight according to the flesh we have a spiritual understanding and the power in us comes from God. Feelings cannot discern the situation. The Father sent his light into our hearts, he sent his word into our hearts, he sent his life, and that life is Christ. Now we truly have life and no weapon formed against you can prosper. Let us find ourselves completely "spirit, soul, and body" belonging to Christ. Give all your frustration, fear, and anxious thoughts to the Lord because he bore the grief and sorrow for our peace, and take the rest the Father has given us. Believe what He says to you because the Lord is watching over his word to perform it in your life.Scripture for thought:Jude 1:1-25 PLEASE, KEEP YOUR SELVES IN GODS LOVE.Revelation 7: 13-15Galatians 5:22-26

The Sword Spirit IS The Word Of God. Let the word of God dwell in you richly. When we have the word it is easy to walk in the spirit and do something good.Isaiah 11:2-5 The Spirit of the LORD will rest on Him the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and strength, the Spirit of knowledge and fear of the LORD. And He will delight in the fear of the LORD. He will not judge by what His eyes see, and He will not decide by what His ears hear…Ephesians 6:10-18 Isaiah 57:15-19Isaiah 55:8-9Scripture says that man does not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. Deuteronomy 8:3 It is a choice to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of God. 1 Thessalonians 2:10-13 You are witnesses, and so is God, of how holy, righteous, and blameless our conduct was among you who believed. For you know that we treated each of you as a father treats his own children— encouraging you, comforting you, and urging you to walk in a manner worthy of God, who calls you into His own kingdom and glory. And we continually thank God because, when you received the word of God that you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men, but as the true word of God—the word which is now at work in you who believe.
We are in Christ, the Prince of Peace yet we have been shaken from the place of Peace. There is rest and safety for our souls. Our minds, will, and emotions do not have to figure out life and do life by ourselves anymore. We have been given a comforter and helper who teaches us all the ways of God. The Helper will lead us in a clear path, he sees the enemy and knows the plan the enemy has to deceive us. Before we even get out of bed and before we lay our heads on the pillow at night God sees and knows all things. What a place to be when our mind is rested in the Almighty.It has been given to us to know God's ways and the more we know and trust the Father the power and authority of Christ will reign in our hearts and proceed out of our mouths.Scripture for thoughtMark 4:30-40 Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son, is given, and the government will be upon His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of PeaceEphesians 1:17-18 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son, is given, and the government will be upon His shoulders.

Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. Stand firm against him, and be strong in your faith. Remember that your family of believers all over the world is going through the same kind of suffering you are.Proverbs 3:1-8John 17:20-26I think that we really do forget that we are fighting a spiritual enemy. Remember this fear is false evidence appearing real.
Exodus 33:18 NIV Then Moses said, “Now show me your glory.” NLT Moses responded, “Then show me your glorious presence.” ESV Moses said, “Please show me your glory.” Exodus 33:17-19 So the LORD said to Moses, “I will do this very thing you have asked, for you have found favor in My sight, and I know you by name.” Then Moses said, “Please show me Your glory.” “I will cause all My goodness to pass before you,” the LORD replied, “and I will proclaim My name—the LORD—in your presence. I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.”…John 14:16-23 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever, even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you. “I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live. In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you. Whoever has my commandments and keeps them, he it is who loves me. And he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and manifest myself to him.” Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, how is it that you will manifest yourself to us, and not to the world?” Jesus answered him, “If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.

For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him. With long life will I satisfy him and show him my salvation.2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.Power over all the works of the enemyLuke 10:18-20 …So He told them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.

Give voice to the word by saying:“The spirit of truth abides in me and teaches me all things and guides me into all truths. Therefore, I confess I have perfect knowledge of every situation and circumstance of life. The wisdom of God is formed within me. I trust in the Lord with all my heart and lean not on my own understanding. I let the word of Christ dwell in me richly in all wisdom. I do follow the Good Shepherd; I know his voice and a stranger I will not follow.” Words are from Charles Capps Ministries.Scripture for thought:Psalm 23:1-6 (4-5) Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.…1 John 4:18 There is no fear in love, but perfect love cast out fear: because fear has torment. He who fears is not made perfect in love.
I Will Greatly RejoiceIsaiah 61:1-11 (7) For your shame ye shall have double; and for confusion, they shall rejoice in their portion: therefore in their land they shall possess the double: everlasting joy shall be unto them.Hebrews 4:12-16 (13) Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.Romans 8:18-39 2 Timothy 1:7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power, love, and self-control.
Overthrow doubt with faith in God then Jesus will find faith when He comes.Luke 21:33-35 Be Watchful for the Day Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away. But watch yourselves, or your hearts will be weighed down by dissipation, drunkenness, and the worries of life— and that day will spring upon you suddenly like a snare. For it will come upon all who dwell on the face of all the earth.… BSBLuke 21:34-36 NIV “Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you suddenly like a trap. For it will come on all those who live on the face of the whole earth. Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.”Romans 8:35-39 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or distress or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written: “For Your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.” No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor principalities, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.The Ark Afflicts the Philistines1 Samuel 5:3-4 When the people of Ashdod got up early the next morning, there was Dagon, fallen on his face before the ark of the LORD. So they took Dagon and returned him to his place. But when they got up early the next morning, there was Dagon, fallen on his face before the ark of the LORD, with his head and his hands broken off and lying on the threshold. Only the torso remained.Mark 4:18Psalm 23:1-6Always perfecting in Christ.
Scripture for thoughtBreathe - the rest of God is in our praise.Psalm 32:6-8 Therefore let all the godly pray to You while You may be found. Surely when great waters rise, they will not come near. You are my hiding place. You protect me from trouble; You surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah I will instruct you and teach you the way you should go; I will give you counsel and watch over you.…Lamentations 3:19-26 (19-24) Remember my affliction and wandering, the wormwood and the gall. Surely my soul remembers and is humbled within me. Yet I call this to mind, and therefore I have hope: Because of the loving devotion of the LORD we are not consumed, for His mercies never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness! “The LORD is my portion,” says my soul, “therefore I will hope in Him.”Hebrews 4:14-162 Timothy 1:3-18; 2:1-26
There is no other place I desire to be but in the one and only Son of God. We are seated in Christ, in the heavenly realm, we are spiritual beings in physical bodies so let’s not lean on your fleshy understanding because to be spiritually minded is life and peace, (Romans 8:6).Ephesians 4:12-14 For the perfecting of the Saints for the work of the ministry for the edifying of the body of Christ till we come in the unity of faith and the knowledge of the son of God to a perfect man to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ that we henceforth be no more children tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of teaching… Ephesians 3:16-21Proverbs 3:1-8 (5-6)John 14:1,27John 10:10-18If we allow the love of God to pour into our hearts, we will grow up in Christ.
I am sorry for the choppiness of this file. Be strong in the Lord today.Daniel 12:1-3 “At that time shall arise, Michael, the great prince who has charge of your people. And there shall be a time of trouble, such as never has been since there was a nation till that time. But at that time your people shall be delivered, everyone whose name shall be found written in the book. And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. And those who are wise shall shine like the brightness of the sky above; and those who turn many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever.Scripture for thoughtDaniel 11:36-45Romans 10:9-10Proverbs 3:7-8Psalm 103:1-6
For thus said the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel,“In returning and rest you shall be saved;in quietness and in trust shall be your strength.”But you were unwilling... Isaiah 30:15
We must grow into maturity that is what the subject will be. We are complete in Christ and not moved by what we see. The Lord's promise is to keep us in perfect peace because we roll all our cares onto Him.Gifts have been given for our maturity so that we are not tossed around by every situation and circumstance that this life gives. Scripture for thought Ephesians 4:11-15... Let's grow up and be still before the Lord.Ephesians 5:1-2 NIVFollow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
The Prayers Of The RighteousScripture for thoughtJames 5:15-16 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he has committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. Proverbs 15:29 The Lord is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.Proverbs 15:8 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord: but the prayer of the upright is his delight.Hebrews 4:14-16 Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.I AM inseparable from God's love - as it is written in Romans 8:38-39 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Truth & LoveScripture for thought2 John 1-6 The elder to the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in truth; and not only I, but also all who know the truth, for the sake of the truth which abides in us and will be with us forever: Grace, mercy and peace will be with us, from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love. I was very glad to find some of your children walking in truth, just as we have received commandment to do from the Father. Now I ask you, lady, not as though I were writing to you a new commandment, but the one which we have had from the beginning, that we love one another. And this is love, that we walk according to His commandments. This is the commandment, just as you have heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it.3 John 3:2-4 Beloved, I pray that in all respects you may prosper and be in good health, just as your soul prospers. For I was very glad when brethren came and testified to your truth, that is, how you are walking in truth. I have no greater joy than this, to hear of my children walking in the truth.Isaiah 55:6-9 Romans 12:2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God.Deuteronomy 6:5 And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.The grace of God is working in you.Exodus 3:141 Corinthians 15:10
Where grace aboundsGrace abounds in you. God giving us His Son and His Spirit is grace. The same spirit that raised Christ from the dead is living in us teaching all truths and pouring the nature of the Father into our hearts.Let God's grace abound in you. Romans chapter 5:20-21 The law was brought in so that the trespass might increase. But where sin increased, grace increased all the more, so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.Romans 8: 13-17 (14-15) For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
Scripture for thoughtLamentations 3:19-26 (19) Remembering mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood, and the gall.John 10:27-29 (27) My sheep hear my voice; I know them, and they follow me.John 15:6-12 (11) I have told you these things so that My joy may be in you and your joy may be complete.
Never ThirstThe relationship we have with God is everything. Psalm 107:8-9 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men! For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.John 4:1-24 (10,14) Jesus answered, “If you knew the gift of God and who is asking you for a drink, you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water.” 14 But whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a fount of water springing up to eternal life.” Hebrews 4:10-13 (12-13) For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it pierces even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow. It judges the thoughts and intentions of the heart. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight; everything is uncovered and exposed before the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.Romans 8:11-14Hebrews 12:3James 4:72 Corinthians 10:3-6Isaiah 40:28-31
Love carries me The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, it is new every morning, great is His faithfulness. The Lord will lead us on a plain path he knows the schemes of the enemy. That is a good reason to acknowledge the Lord in all we do. The Lord's thoughts for us are peace and not evil. We may have to walk through some stuff but we can walk through it with confidence because the Lord is in you.Thank you, Lord, for confidence.The Lord is my shepherd. I am secure in Christ.Scripture for thoughtPsalm 27:11 New Living Translation Teach me how to live, O LORD. Lead me along the right path, for my enemies are waiting for me.King James Bible Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.Luke 1: 451 Peter 5:6-101 John 5: 13-15Proverbs 3: 5-8Isaiah 11:2-5 The Spirit produces this in us.Galatians 5:22-25 the fruit the Spirit of truth brings out in you.Proverbs 10:7The love of the Lord keeps lifting me. Stay in God’s love.
Be encouraged and stay in faith 2 Corinthians 4:7-18 (8-11) We are pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not crushed. We are perplexed, but not driven to despair. We are hunted down but never abandoned by God. We get knocked down, but we are not destroyed. Through suffering, our bodies continue to share in the death of Jesus so that the life of Jesus may also be seen in our bodies. Yes, we live in constant danger of death because we serve Jesus so that the life of Jesus will be evident in our dying bodies. 2 Corinthians 4:10 Through suffering, our bodies continue to share in the death of Jesus so that the life of Jesus may also be seen in our bodies Our relationship with Jesus causes us to respond to our situations and circumstances the way Christ would. We are dead to sin and alive in Christ. The Bible says in Romans that “he who has raised Christ from the dead will also quicken our mortal bodies. The word quicken means to make alive. We are a holy temple unto the Lord and it's time to start living in Christ. Romans 8:11 And if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit, who lives in you. Ephesians 3:16-21
The day grief and sorrow took my soul The day grief started, we were not heard, we were not understood, we were misunderstood, we were not seen, we were left alone, and when we were beaten, battered hurt, and broken. When we struggled with no help, when we lost all hope, when the tears wouldn't stop, when we caved in, and gave up, when it hurt so bad and there was no voice to comfort. When the encouragement did not come, when our wisdom failed, when the struggle got real, when fear overtook us, when this world shook us, when death came and loss prevailed, when shame came, when accusation came, when guilt overrode our soul. When the pain was so deep, and so high that there was no seeing around it or over it or through it. The day grief started; I was a child. That is the weight we humans carry every day of our lives; then Christ comes in and says, I will bear your grief I will carry your sorrow; here is my peace, my peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you, don't be afraid. I have overcome the world.We do not have to carry the weight of self anymore. Scripture for thoughtJohn 14:27 Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled; do not be afraid.Isaiah 53:3-5 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him, and with his stripes, we are healed.Ephesians 3:16-21 for this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I ask that out of the riches of His glory He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. Then you, being rooted and grounded in love, will have power, together with all the saints, to comprehend the length and width and height and depth of the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.Psalm 23:1-6
God With Us – We are a new creation, and we speak life.2 Corinthians 5:1-20 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away. Behold, the new has come!2 Corinthians 5:9-10 So, we aspire to please Him, whether we are here in this body or away from it. 10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive his due for the things done in the body, whether good or bad.Matthew 1:23 NCV “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel” (which means “God with us”).Psalm 46:1-5 God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in times of trouble. Therefore, we will not fear, though the earth is transformed, and the mountains are toppled into the depths of the seas, though their waters roar and foam and the mountains quake in the surge. Selah There is a river whose streams delight the city of God, the holy place where the Most High dwells. God is within her; she will not be moved.Mark 11:12-14 12 The next day, when they had left Bethany, Jesus was hungry. 13 Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, He went to see if there was any fruit on it. But when He reached it, He found nothing on it except leaves, since it was not the season for figs. 14 Then He said to the tree, “May no one ever eat of your fruit again.” And His disciples heard this statement. Mark 11:20-25 As they were walking back in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered from its roots. Peter remembered it and said, “Look, Rabbi! The fig tree You cursed has withered.” 22“Have faith in God,” Jesus said to them. 23“Truly I tell you that if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and has no doubt in his heart but believes that it will happen, it will be done for him. 24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. 25And when you stand to pray, if you hold anything against another, forgive it, so that your Father in heaven will forgive your trespasses as well”John 15:7-8 If you remain in Me and My words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. This is to My Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, proving yourselves to be My disciples.Sorry for any place in this talk where I babbled.
Jesus Gave Us The Keys To LifeThe key is the knowledge of God. The key is the knowledge of what ELOHIM is and that Jesus is the Christ the Son of God. Proverbs 1:7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge…When Jesus came to the area of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his followers, “Who do people say the Son of Man is?” Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” Jesus answered, “You are blessed, Simon son of Jonah, because no person taught you that. My Father in heaven showed you who I am. So I tell you, you are Peter. On this rock I will build my church, and the power of death will not be able to defeat it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; the things you don’t allow on earth will be the things that God does not allow, and the things you allow on earth will be the things that God allows.” Matthew 16:13, 16-19 NCVLuke 11:52 Amplified BibleWoe to you lawyers (experts in the law), because you have taken away the key to knowledge (scriptural truth). You yourselves did not enter, and you held back those who were entering [by your flawed interpretation of God’s word and your man-made tradition].”Ephesians 6:10-18Ephesians 1:17-19Colossians 1:9-14 Hebrews 4:14-16Proverbs 1:7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.Proverbs 9:10-11 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.

Scripture for thoughtJohn 18:36-37 Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world; if it were, My servants would fight to prevent My arrest by the Jews. But now My kingdom is not of this realm.” “Then You are a king!” Pilate said. “You say that I am a king,” Jesus answered. “For this reason I was born and have come into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to My voice.”Scripture on my heart today, Matthew 5:8 Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.…
I can't help but keep expressing how much we are in God, and that we have been accepted in Him through Jesus. The Lord is life.The Lord did not give us a spirit of infirmity (sickness, and disease).The Lord did not give us a Spirit of fear.He gave us Himself and we are in Christ.Scripture for thoughtJohn 17: 15-26James 4:7 (5-7)2 Timothy 1:7Romans 8:15Romans 15:5Ephesians 1:17Galatians 4:6God is spirit, that’s what Jesus said when he was speaking to the woman at the well in John 4:24. Psalm 138:8 The Lord will perfect what concerns you.And we know that God works all things together for the good of those who love Him, who are called according to His purpose. Romans 8:28He keeps his promises, especially the ones he said to himself; Let us make man in his own image, after our likeness… Genesis 1:26. We are being transformed into the image of the Son. Romans 8:29For those God foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son so that He would be the firstborn among many brothers.2 Corinthians 3:17-18 Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into His image with intensifying glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.
Be encouraged no matter what. It is time to stop being blown around by everything that happens in this life. It is time to be still and trust God's love.Scripture for thoughtActs 26:16-18 But get up and stand on your feet; for this purpose I have appeared to you, to appoint you a minister and a witness not only to the things which you have seen, but also to the things in which I will appear to you; rescuing you from the Jewish people and from the Gentiles, to whom I am sending you, to open their eyes so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the dominion of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who have been sanctified by faith in Me.’
I have a simple question; can we be friends? We tend to look at each other on the surface rather than at how God sees us. 1 Samuel 16:6-7 But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The LORD does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.” NIVScripture for thought2 Corinthians 5:15-17 And He died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died for them and was raised again. So from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh. Although we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer. Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away. Behold, the new has come! Matthew 7:20 So then, by their fruit you will recognize them.Colossians 2:1-3 Absent in Body, Present in SpiritFor I want you to know how much I am struggling for you and for those at Laodicea, and for all who have not met me face to face, that they may be encouraged in heart, knit together in love, and filled with the full riches of complete understanding, so that they may know the mystery of God, namely Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.John 17:20-26 (23) I will be in them and you will be in me so that they will be completely one. Then the world will know that you sent me and that you loved them just as much as you loved me.
We Have A Life Sentence – With GodScripture for thought John 15:1-17 (4, 9) Remain in me, and I will remain in you. For a branch cannot produce fruit if it is severed from the vine, and you cannot be fruitful unless you remain in me. 9 “I have loved you even as the Father has loved me. Remain in my love.1 John 4:12-14 No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God remains in us, and His love is perfected in us. By this, we know that we remain in Him, and He in us: He has given us of His Spirit. And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent His Son to be the Savior of the world.1 John 4:15-17 If anyone confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. And we have come to know and believe the love that God has for us. God is love; whoever abides in love abides in God, and God in him. In this way, love has been perfected among us, so that we may have confidence on the day of judgment; for in this world we are just like Him.1 Corinthians 10:3-7Galatians 5:20-21 idolatry and sorcery; hatred, discord, jealousy, and rage; rivalries, divisions, factions, and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.…Sin crouching Cain Genesis 4:6-7 “Why are you angry,” said the LORD to Cain, “and why has your countenance fallen? If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you refuse to do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires you, but you must master it.”Every attitude is crucified in Christ anger, jealousy, fear, depression, bitterness, resentment, and unforgiveness. Let the imagination of the heart come to the light; let every attitude of your heart remain in the light.
I rolled over this morning to these words, “love you with a sense of purpose”. I took note of the song and I looked it up with the lyrics, it was from 1985 and the actual name of the song is “Sense Of Purpose”.The Lord wants to show us our purpose. Our purpose is to live in the agape love of God and be what He is. God is love (1 John 4:8) and he pours what He is into our hearts by the Holy Spirit. You don’t have to go back in time to 1985 to understand, that the Lord loves you and has a plan and purpose for your life. Scripture for thoughtJeremiah 29:11-14Words FlyPsalm 91:1-16 (5-6) You will not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flies by day; nor for the pestilence that walks in darkness; Nor for the destruction that waste at noonday. 2 Corinthians 10:3-62 Corinthians 5:11-212 Corinthians 3:14-18 (18) we all show the Lord's glory, and we are changed to be like him. This change in us brings even greater glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the spirit. NCV
Many times, we believe we can fix things with people that only God can fix. The Lord sees the heart we see the emotions. We want to be a part of their lives, but we can't be a part of their sin. Believe me, I've tried to please people. To be a part of their lives means being a part of their flesh. Compromise with no one we owe no one anything but to love them the same way that Christ loves us. Jesus didn't come to give everybody everything that they ever wanted, he did not come to pity pat all their feelings. Jesus came to make the world right with God and He succeeded, John 3:15-17.People are transformed by God's love and that love is in you to live and love as He does. After all the love of God is being poured into your heart by the Holy Spirit who was in you teaching you all things. Do not fear family, or friends, do not fear for your life but trust God to perfect what concerns you.Romans 12: 2 do not conform to the pattern of this world but be transformed 5 the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is his good pleasing.Luke 18:28-30 Look,” said Peter, “we have left all we had to follow You.” “Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or wife or brothers or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God will fail to receive many times more in this age—and in the age to come, eternal life.”…Hebrews 4:14-16 since we have a great high priest, Jesus the son of God, who has gone into the heaven, let us hold on to the faith we have. For our high priest is able to understand our weaknesses. When he lived on earth he was tempted in every way that we are, but he did not sin. Let us, then, feel very sure that we can come before God's throne where there is grace. There we can receive mercy and grace to help us when we need it.Romans 13:8 Owe no one anything but to love them...New Living TranslationOwe nothing to anyone—except for your obligation to love one another. If you love your neighbor, you will fulfill the requirements of God’s law.Jesus reconciling the world2 Corinthians 5:14-21 The love of Christ controls us because we know that One died for all, so all have died. Christ died for all so that those who live would not continue to live for themselves. He died for them and was raised from the dead so that they would live for him. From this time on we do not think of anyone as the world does. In the past we thought of Christ as the world thinks, but we no longer think of him in that way. If anyone belongs to Christ, there is a new creation. The old things have gone; everything is made new! All this is from God. Through Christ, God made peace between us and himself, and God gave us the work of telling everyone about the peace we can have with him. God was in Christ, making peace between the world and himself. In Christ, God did not hold the world guilty of its sins. And he gave us this message of peace. So, we have been sent to speak for Christ. It is as if God is calling to you through us. We speak for Christ when we beg you to be at peace with God. Christ had no sin, but God made him become sin so that in Christ we could become right with God.This issue of life and death needs to be settled in our hearts.John 11:25 (New Century Version) Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me will have life even if they die.I want to be a part of their lives, but I can't be a part of their sin, I've tried it and became defiled, confused, and displaced.

Rather our tears are from the great joy we have of being with the Lord forever or from the hurt of seeing people that we've lived with, or we saw on the street, or that we talked with on the job cast into that fire forever the Lord said he would wipe away every tear from our eyes. Let us live our best life right now by being the light that we are in Christ. For the light has shined in our hearts and we have become the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus who died and rose again. Let's find ourselves in God today in the bosom of the Almighty, resting in Him right now. So that our light will shine in this world wherever we are today.

Knowing the Lord is everything and living in the joy that He has for you is more. The joy of the Lord is life and peace for us. The Lord is rejoicing over you because you belong to Him. Enter the Joy of the Lord. I've always thought that joy was something that I or someone in my life had to perform or that joy would be something I would gain physically. But real joy is only found in the creator who knows us and excepts us the way we are. Remember “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:8 Scripture for thoughtIsaiah 11:2-5 NCV These verses explain the Spirit of Life working in us.Psalm 16:11 You make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.Nehemiah 8:10 Then Nehemiah told them, “Go and eat what is rich, drink what is sweet, and send out portions to those who have nothing prepared since today is holy to our Lord.

He will rejoice over you with gladness; He will quiet you with His love; He will rejoice over you with singing.”Matthew 16:13-17 (17) Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah! For this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by My Father in heaven. And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock, I will build My church, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”Do not choke with the concerns of this life. Mark 4:7 Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the seedlings, and they yielded no crop. Jesus explains Mark 4:18-19 Others are like the seed planted among the thorny weeds. They hear the teaching, but the worries of this life, the temptation of wealth, and many other evil desires keep the teaching from growing and producing fruit in their lives.The Lord is that joy, so I gladly enter the presence of the Lord.

We are Children of God
Scripture for thought Psalm 121:3-8 He will not allow your foot to slip; your Protector will not slumber. Behold, the Protector of Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. The LORD is your keeper; the LORD is the shade on your right hand. The sun will not strike you by day, nor the moon by night. The LORD will guard you from all evil; He will preserve your soul. The LORD will watch over your coming and going, both now and forevermore. Psalm 121:1-8 GALATIANS 4:6 NLT And because we are his children, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, prompting us to call out, “Abba, Father.” Romans 5:5 And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out His love into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, whom He has given us.
Romans 8:9 You, however, are controlled not by the flesh, but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ.
Romans 8:15-18 For you did not receive a spirit of slavery that returns you to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!” The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children. And if we are children, then we are heirs: heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ—if indeed we suffer with Him, so that we may also be glorified with Him. I consider that our present sufferings are not comparable to the glory that will be revealed in us.
Leaning on our own understanding will cause us to think. We do not have to be around people to have a thought. Whatever you have seen, whatever you've heard, and whatever you feel, creates a vision in your mind. Is it a mirage, is it something you need, is it a pain, is it an argument, is it love? Whatever the thought is, it can steer the course of your life.
When it comes to ability, we do not measure ourselves we measure God.

Jehovah Adonai, He is the self-existing one, the Lord God Almighty. My greatest desire is that we would see him as He is, while we are still in this physical body. Because then we could truly look like Him in this earth. We are the exact representation of the Son, if only we would learn to live from the secret place of the Most High. Scripture for thought Psalm 91:1-2 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the LORD, “You are my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” Romans 8:28 2 Corinthians 12:8-10 (9-10) “ 9But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is perfected in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly in my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest on me. That is why, for the sake of Christ, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.” There is maturity in what we suffer, wait on the Lord and have courage. God's grace is sufficient for every problem.

The devil has power but no authority. We have power and authority. Know who you are, and to whom you belong. You are a child of God. Stand firm and do not be moved from your faith.
Scripture for thought
(IF YOU ARE?) We are challenged with, “if we are really God's children, then what are we going to do about the situation. Our confidence is no longer in the flesh; It's not in what we can do. Our faith is from what Jesus has done for us. Our confidence and boldness are in God.
Matthew 4:1-4 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry. Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread. ”But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’ ”
Romans 8:13-17 For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.

There is no question you are a child of God.
We have the Highest love, behold our beloved. We are the object of God's love. If you have received Christ, the nature of God is already in you, we just need to sit down with the Holy Spirit and let him teach us. Love is the nature of God, but it is not natural for us.

Lets us take possession of our soul by putting our confidence in Jesus and what he has done. Salvation is more than being free from judgment, it is more than going to heaven it is being free from the mental stronghold in the flesh. Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me.
2 Corinthians 12:8-10 But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is perfected in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly in my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest on me. That is why, for the sake of Christ, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

We were once enemies with God, our thoughts were not His thoughts, and our ways were not His ways. Colossians 1:21 Once you were alienated from God and were enemies in your minds because of your evil behavior.
We take every thought captive and make it obedient to the word of God. Not on our own, thank God, we have the Holy Spirit helping us.
Are we willing to take every thought, every attitude, every intention of our heart, all of our feelings, the false emotions, and be open to God? The Holy Spirit, who is in us can defuse the thoughts that would lead to sin. We're blessed by God, we are His children, and we are his house, Let the Lord’s words have their place in your heart, and let the Lords will reign in your thoughts, he is our life.

The rest of our lives is a testimony of the Lord Jesus Christ. We already have everlasting life with the Lord. In fact, Jesus could take us right now, but we are still here which means there is a testimony of Christ yet to be revealed. You are that testimony of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Scripture for thought Daniel 3: 11-30 Psalm 46:1-11
There there's so much we could be doing if we weren't so people minded. Being spiritually minded is life and peace, but that comes by hearing the word of God. The life we have in the spirit is the life that dominates the soul. We are supposed to let the mind of Christ be in us and we do that by submitting our mind will and emotions, this soul of ours to the Father’s will. Picture Jesus in the garden on his knees going to the father hours before the cross. He knew what he was facing, the strength to go do it was on his knees. Jesus knew the promise of the father, it was an agreement they made in heaven before the world began. Salvation would come into the earth deliver mankind and relieve mankind from their burdens. The stress turned him to His Father. Jesus trembled as the thoughts and feelings tried to turn Him from His destiny it was horrendous and caused him to sweat great drops of blood. Luke 22:39-43 Jesus went out as usual to the Mount of Olives, and the disciples followed Him. When He came to the place, He told them, “Pray that you will not enter into temptation.” And He withdrew about a stone’s throw beyond them, where He knelt down and prayed, “Father, if You are willing, take this cup from Me. Yet not My will, but Yours be done. “Then an angel from heaven appeared to Him and strengthened Him. And in His anguish, He prayed more earnestly, and His sweat became like drops of blood falling to the ground.

John 17: 15-26
What thought has you trapped? There is a place of grace and there is a place of grief and sorrow. In the movie the Pilgrim's Progress, there was a scene where they crossed over from the path into a meadow. It looked as if the meadow was laid out parallel to the path, but they could not see where it veered off in the distance. So, they jumped the fence leaving the path that led to the celestial city, and ended up in the place called despair. This place of despair tormented them, they’re soul was in great turmoil over their situation, but God revealed the key that would get them out of this castle, out of the stronghold of despair.
The key was in the midst of their despair, they acknowledge God. Just like Paul and Silas in the jail after they had been stripped and beaten with rods; at the midnight hour when they could have been moaning in agony and talking about their defeat instead, they began to pray and sing to God.
The situations and circumstances around us flood us with a brigade of words that quickly become strongholds that will lock us up. Knowing the Father and trusting what Jesus has done for us will bring down the stronghold. We have the Spirit of truth abiding in us who reminds us of what the Lord said, and that is for any situation that may arise.
Each of us needs to remember, the Lord loves us the same today as he did yesterday.

Scripture for thought John 3:15-18 that everyone who believes in Him may have eternal life. For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him. Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.

Ephesians 1:15-23 For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers, that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in your knowledge of Him. I ask that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you may know the hope of His calling, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints, and the surpassing greatness of His power to us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of His mighty strength, which He exerted in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God put everything under His feet and made Him head over everything for the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.

Saving the soul from torment, from the pain the suffering that is in this life without God. When we lay our cares into the hands of God, when we make him the Lord the Most High in our lives there's nothing too hard for him.

Everything is about staying in love with God. How can we grow into more extraordinary things if we do not do the first part? The foundation is love. God so loved the world that He sent His beloved Son into this world to save us from judgment and give us life, true life. Life is in the Son. This is your savior, your best friend, the Prince of Peace, the Son of God, our joy, and the reason the Father has mercy for us. Jesus is our salvation.
Staying in his love is so important right now because we are so easily moved by our situation and the situations and circumstances of this life. We are manipulated by TVs and cell phones; we need to silence everything around us and put the Lord in the place of our idols.
We cannot leave the principles of the teaching of Christ, we cannot go on to perfection, and we do not have a foundation of turning away from dead works nor repentance of them. Where is the faith toward God? Where is the confidence we have in him? We believe that he is, well so do the demons. Will Jesus find faith in us, the faith toward God when he comes?

You can be angry and not sin that is what the scripture says, Ephesians 4:26-27 “Be angry, yet do not sin.” Do not let the sun set upon your anger, and do not give the devil a foothold.
You have the strength to bring you through. We have been given the Spirit of God who reveals the truth about that situation. Hear the Holy Spirit.
Scriptures Lamentations 3:19-26, 2 Peter 2:7-9, Ephesians 4:26-27, Genesis 19:26 (Lot's wife).
We can get through everything knowing Him. Jesus said in John 8:31-32 "If you continue in my word, then are you my disciples indeed; And you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.
Please read 2 Thessalonians 2:1-16 and stand firm in the faith of Christ Jesus. Keep yourself in love with God.
When God is your strength, He is your testimony.
Scripture for thought: 1 John 4:4 "You, little children, are from God and have overcome them, because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world."
Romans 8:11 And if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit, who lives in you.
Be encouraged to follow the High and Lofty One who inhabits eternity. He can, will, and does restore your soul. Trust me lay your thoughts down for the Lord’s thoughts. His thoughts are above the situation and beyond the circumstance. He knows how to bring us through the issues of this life especially as we acknowledge that we are surrounded in the Lord’s love. Peace to all.
Part 2 Do not let anyone or anything move you from your hope. Salvation is the free gift that has made you free. THE BIBLE TALKS ABOUT FALLING AWAY, DO NOT BE THAT ONE. "Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first..." 2 Thessalonians 2:3 (KJV).
Scriptures Romans 8:31-39, Ephesians 3:14-21, Colossians1:11-23, Hebrews 4:14-16
Do not let anyone or anything move you from your hope. Salvation is the free gift that has made you free. THE BIBLE TALKS ABOUT FALLING AWAY, DO NOT BE THAT ONE. "Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first..." 2 Thessalonians 2:3 (KJV).
Scriptures Romans 8:31-39, Ephesians 3:14-21, Colossians1:11-23, Hebrews 4:14-16
When we walk by faith in the promises of God, He is there. I remember a time when I was getting really upset about a developing situation; I heard the Lord say, "Do you trust me? Trust me!" I said yes, "I trust you." I settled in for the night watched a good movie, and laughed the night away. Let us give ourselves completely to God, James 4:7. If we do not walk by faith, will we meet Jesus in the air?
Scripture Matthew 6:32-33, James 4:5-8, 1 Thessalonians 4:17, 1 Corinthians 15:52
Stay in faith stay in the word.
James 1:12 Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love Him.
Scripture James 1:1:12, 1 Peter 5:6-11
The life that Christ came to give you is in you. The Holy Spirit is speaking to your spirit confirming by the word of God that you are a child of God. Our revelation comes from the word. The word establishes our hearts and minds. The word makes you sure because it reveals the truth. It speaks of the very foundation of our hearts. Stay rooted stay grounded in the love of Christ Jesus.
Fill your mind with this scripture Revelation 21:1-27.
Psalm 46:1"God is our strength and ever-present help in trouble.."Let us be still and acknowledge He is the LORD.
Scripture John 10:10, 1 Peter 5:8-9, Ephesians 6: 12-18, 3 John 1:3, Psalm 46:1-11
Trust in God alone. You are seated in Christ in the heavenly realm. We must rest in the Lord which means we must trust Him. With all our hearts, minds, and strength we love Him, and we cleave to the Lord. His words are spirit and life, His words are the words of eternal life. So, whatever promises the Lord has made is ours, but we must confess it. Get the word in your face, and you will see what our Father said.
You are the temple of the living God. His name is in you, His word is in you, and the Holy Spirit is in you, teaching you all things. Calm down and know the Lord.
John 6:67-68 So Jesus asked the Twelve, “Do you want to leave too?” Simon Peter replied, “Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of eternal life. We believe and know that You are the Holy One of God.”
Scripture 2 Kings 21:6-9, John 6:22-70
1 John 2:5 But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this, we know that we are in Him. We ought to be walking like Jesus letting every situation connect to the word. The word that the Lord planted is in our hearts and mouth. What and who have we allowed to consume us? We have the gift of life, but it is all in the Father of heaven and earth who loves us so much more than we realize. Let us keep looking to Jesus the author and finisher of our faith.
Scripture 1 John 2:5-6
God's love is where we live from. The Holy Spirit is pouring the love of the Father into our hearts. We can overcome all the situations and circumstances of this life by knowing the Father and Jesus the Son. It is knowing their great love for us that causes you and I to be overcomers in this life. We can trust Him with everything. BEING CHRIST IS BEING IN LOVE Scripture1 John 1:4-10, 1 John 2:1-6, Ephesians3:16-19
1 John chapter 4:16-17 And we have known and believe the love that God has for us God is love and he that dwells in love dwells in God and God in him. There's where the love of God is made perfect that we may have boldness in the day of judgment. If we dwell in God through his son, through his word by our confession we will feel the power of God's love in us. We will love each other as Christ has loved us. The love of God is being poured out into our heart by the Holy Spirit all we must do is lean on him for understanding, lean on the Lord when you feel weak lean on the Lord when you feel strong. Just be aware of His presence and give all your heart to the Lord He is there for you. Scripture Ephesians 3:14-21, Psalm 91: 14-16, 1-4, Romans 8: 35-36, 38-39; 1 John 4:7-21, Galatians: 22-23
Scripture Deuteronomy 28:1-2 Let us learn how to listen to the Holy Spirit so that can direct our steps.
We must let Jesus be Lord over our soul by including Him in all we are walking through. Your sword is the word of God, and Jesus showed us how to use it. So get the word in your face and be of good courage because the LORD is the strength of our lives. Everything you need will come together as you yield to the transforming word of God. Love to you all.
Scripture Isaiah 55:7-8, Ephesians 6:10-17
The Unshakable Kingdom
This says it all, Hebrews 12:26-28 At that time His voice shook the earth, but now He has promised, “Once more I will shake not only the earth but heaven as well.” The words “Once more” signify the removal of what can be shaken— that is, created things— so that the unshakable may remain. Therefore, since we are receiving an unshakable kingdom, let us be filled with gratitude, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe. This is the kingdom that is in you.
Scripture Psalm 139:7-12, Psalm 77:1-20, Psalm 75:1-10
Be an overcomer in this life. The earth and people will be shaken, but you will not be moved. Greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world. Get strength for today.
Scriptures Psalm 77:1-20, Psalm 75:1-10, John 16:26-27, John 1:1-4
We are free from spiritual death we have spiritual life. It is a life we have received through Jesus and a life we live to the Father. The Holy Spirit keeps us spiritually alive. If we listen to Him, we will be a greater asset in this world, we will truly shine as lights in the darkness.
Titus 3: 4-8 But when the kindness of God our Savior and His love for mankind appeared, He saved us, not by the righteous deeds we had done, but according to His mercy, through the washing of new birth a and renewal by the Holy Spirit. This is the Spirit He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that, having been justified by His grace, we would become heirs with the hope of eternal life. This saying is trustworthy. And I want you to emphasize these things so that those who have believed God will take care to devote themselves to good deeds. These things are excellent and profitable for the people.
Scriptures Psalm 91:1- Romans12:1-5, Colossians 1:9-11
Get strength in your life through Christ. Be conformed in the image of the Son of God by laying yourself out before the Lord. Know Him who is faithful to His word.
Some of the scripture was Romans 8:29, Hebrews 4:14-16, Isaiah 55:6-9, Mathew 16:13-17, Acts 3:1-9, Acts 3:3:16
Love to you all, stay in Christ.
Acknowledge the Lord in everything you do, and He will direct you. Our pathway to life is through the word of God. Jesus is the life-giving word. Remember what He said the words that I speak they are spirit and they are life. Jesus comes as life in the bread, life in the water, and life in the blood. Think about that and Get The Word In Your Face. My love to all.
Scripture John 17:1-26, Genesis 19:12-26, Jude 1:1-23
I can not say it enough remain in the Father's love. There is nobody greater and nobody higher. Forgiveness is a product of love, remain in the Lord's love. Give Him all your cares and take the Father's promises while doing good. My love to all
Remember to Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood remains in Me, and I in him., John 6:56. Stay in the Word
Scripture Galatians 5:22-26, Galatians 6:1, Isaiah 55, Jude 1:21
Proverbs 21:21 New International Version Whoever pursues righteousness and love finds life, prosperity and honor.
This is an excerpt from God's creative power for healing by Charles Capps.
Jesus said if you abide in me and my words abide in you, you will ask what you will, and it will be done onto you (John 15: 7). When God's word becomes engrafted or infused into your spirit it has become a part of you. It cannot be separated from you! It is not only your thought and affirmation, it is you! The word made flesh. Then your flesh will reflect the life of that word when God's word concerning healing takes root in your flesh, it becomes greater than disease and healing is the result. Be strengthened and live from above. Scripture Ephesians 2:8, Hebrews11:5-6, Hebrews 4:14-16, Exodus 34:5-6. Exodus 3:14
I can not seem to express how much the love of God is above the situations and circumstances that we are walking through. The Father's love has given us a name that is above every name that can be named. In the name of Jesus, the situation has to come into order; it has to bow to the will of the Father. Philippians 2:9-10 Therefore God exalted Him to the highest place and gave Him the name above all names, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth... Your situations are not greater than His name.
It is the Spirit that gives life walk with Him, and you will walk in the will of the Lord. Strength, wisdom, knowledge, understanding, protection, and health it is all yours in Him. The Lord loves you. Remember the Lord is with you.
Scripture John 6:32-63, John 4: 23-24
The Lord knows how to work the relationships in our lives. The Lord is the author of relationships and knows how to work in a relationship for your good. Do not let yourself be consumed in your thoughts over it ask Him for wisdom, James1:5.
Scripture Philippians 1:6-11, Philippians 3:1-3, Galatians 5:15, Romans 13:13-14, John 15:7-9
Everybody in this world is a temple but of what? For us who have said yes to Jesus we are the temple of Living God. 2 Corinthians 6:16 What agreement can exist between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: “I will dwell with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be My people.” The day you said yes to Christ you were touched with glory. We need to investigate this through the word so we can walk in it. Remember No situation in your life is greater than our Father. He is the one true ALMIGHTY GOD.
Scripture Psalm 103:1-6, Isaiah, 11:1-5, Isaiah 6:1-8, 2 Corinthians 10:3-5, Ephesians 6:10-18, Ephesians 2:6, 2 Corinthians 6:15-17
I can not help but emphasize how much the Father is present in your life. He is, He is in the present, and he is in the future. The Lord is ready to work all things out for your good (for the good of those who are in love with Him.) Stay in love with Jesus no matter what we face. The Father is greater than everything we will experience and is able to carry us through. He is the God of all comfort and will comfort our hearts and mind. He is with us. I love you all!
Scripture Romans 8:28, 2 Corinthians 1:3
I think it is my job to keep us coming after the Father no matter the situation and circumstance we may be in. The Lord is with you and wants to keep our heart and mind in His peace. But His peace is not like the world’s peace. Yet we will find peace in his presence as we learn how to live in the secret place of the Most High and under the shadow of the Almighty. We will hear his voice as we learn to turn our hearts to Him. Whatever we're walking through he has ordered goodness and mercy to follow us because we trust Him and believe in His name. He will of our needs. Blessings to all.
Scripture Psalm 91:1-16, Matthew 6:6, 32-33, Hebrews 4:14-16, John 4:23-24
Our first love is not the people around us. Our first love is the Father of heaven and earth. I pray that we would do like Jesus and keep Him first. The relationship we have is with the Lord is first. Jesus went out away from everyone to pray. I just want to emphasize He had a conversation with the Father. All the cares of this life we can put in the Lord's hand only he can perfect what concerns us. It is put right through Him. His words never return void. Let Lord comfort you, let your heart be strengthened by the one who really cares so you can be the light that you are.
Scripture Luke 18:1, Luke 6:12, Matthew 14:23
If you are married know what season each of you is in. We can shine as lights in this world. Hold tight to love because it works faith.
Scripture Ephesians 3:16-21, Isaiah 9:2, Psalm 23:1-6, and of course Psalm 91
Our delight is in the fear of the Lord. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Wisdom is what we ask for when we are tempted. What exactly is our temptation when we are sad or shell shocked about some situation. How do you respond to the rhetoric of your mind in its persuasive unrelenting ways? This is what we should do, stop pause and give audience to the Lord, you humbly ask the Holy Spirits' help and he will guide you through.
Greater is He that is in you than in the world. Scripture Isaiah 11:2-5, Isaiah 61:3, James 1:5
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off every encumbrance and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with endurance the race set out for us. Stay in the Father's Love.
Scripture Hebrews 12:1-3
The Lord is our light, and Salvation He is the strength of our lives. He has taken us away from judgment and given us true life through His Son. We are really free, free from sin, free from the flesh, free from the devil, free from the weight of every situation and circumstance. Just look at Jesus on the cross, He laid down His life and picked it up again. We have real salvation let us live like it. Free By the Blood - Live in the name - Live in Christ
Scripture Psalm 27:1, Romans 6:16-17, John 8:35-36, Isaiah 53:4-6, Hebrew 12:1-3
The highest praise is giving it all to God. giving yourself mind, will and emotions, every situation and circumstance, and all relationships just give everything that pertains to life to God. Keep it in the Lord's hands.
Scripture Proverbs 9:10, Psalm 121...
Keep Yourself in the love of God no matter what. Scripture Jude 1:21
Sorry for the bad audio quality. I am working on it.
The title speaks for its self. Lift Him up above the situation, the people, and above yourself. Our praise gives us strength.
Scripture Psalm 8:1-2, 2 Chronicles 16:8-11, Proverb 30:5
You are delivered from judgment that is good but there is so much more. Let the Lord fight for you. The Lord is a shield for us. He is the glory and the lifter of our head, Psalm 3:3. This is how we feel about him day and night; we know our God. Knowing the Lord and knowing you belong to him will help you to walk through every barrier. You will rise above it all and see the salvation of many as we rest in Him.

The life we live is to God through Jesus the Christ. We can and will do all things through Christ who is our strength. Let us be strong in Christ. Strength does not yell out in the street under pressure but rather turns to the Father who gives all comfort. If we trust Him comfort will be in our hearts and minds. The Lord's promises will come to mind and strength will arise in you. Let us stop fearing and take the knowledge of the Father, the Creator, the Son, the Christ, the Almighty God, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace, the Wonderful Counselor. He is with us, in us, and through us. He is for us; trust in Him right now with all your heart, all your mind, and all of your strength.
Scripture Isaiah 6:1-8, Psalm 91:1-16, Psalm 23:1-6
The life we live is to God through Jesus the Christ. We can and will do all things through Christ who is our strength. Let us be strong in Christ. Strength does not yell out in the street under pressure but rather turns to the Father who gives all comfort. If we trust Him comfort will be in our hearts and minds.

Scripture Isaiah 6:1-8, Psalm 91:1-16, Psalm 23:1-6
Knowing the Lord is everything, it is absolutely everything. Be in love with God. Crucifying the soul (mind, will, and emotions) is something we do in love. Galatians 5:24 "Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there. " We live a crucified life by hearing and hearing by the Spirit of Life.
Scripture Luke 22:42, Ephesians 1:3,17-19, Ephesians 5:10-18, 1 Peter 5:6-11, 2 Corinthians 10:3-6
The prophets felt neglected when they spoke of coming conflicts, and the word of God was ignored. We know Jesus was neglected John 1:10 " Though the world was made through Him, the world did not recognize Him." Neglect affects the whole human race infant to adult. It does not come from God it comes from sin. God our Father has always had a plan for the pain, and trauma of rejection. He says I will be with you. Remember we are accepted in Christ we are His beloved.
Scripture Isaiah 43:2, Ephesians 1:5-6, Psalm 23
We have given ourselves to the one who is able to rule it well; let us learn how to walk out our soul salvation by the Holy Spirit. We do not bring ourselves through the situations and circumstances of this life. It is in knowing the only true God and Jesus Christ whom the Father sent. We can not deny our feelings in our strength nor force right thinking into our minds without God. He has given us everything that pertains to life and godliness. But we achieve it only through Him. Cleave to God. Scripture Romans 1:18-25, Isaiah 57:20, Luke 9:23
We rule from our spirit over our thoughts, our will, and emotions that is our soul. The spirit is where the Holy Spirit dwells teaching us all things, like calm down, do not lean on how you feel about this situation. The Holy Spirit is reminding us of all truth. Our strength is in the word of God not in what we see or in how we feel. Scripture Luke 9:23-24, Psalm 103:1-8, Isaiah 11:2-5, Isaiah 61:3, Ephesians 3:16, Galatians 5:24-25
Calm down and breathe you are called for God's purpose. He will work everything together for your good. Please continue doing good.
Scripture Isaiah 43:1-3 Now this is what the LORD says—He who created you, O Jacob, and He who formed you, O Israel: “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; you are Mine! When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you go through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be scorched; the flames will not set you ablaze. For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior.
We need to thank God for providing rest even if we are not living in it because of our current state of mind. Are we ready to meet Christ in the air, or are we divided by our minds? Come wash your soul in the knowledge of God. Dwell in the secret place and let your soul rest in the knowledge of your salvation. GOD IS SALVATION theses words are great words if we could comprehend the completeness they bring. Come, let your soul delight in the fatness of God.
Scripture 1 Peter 4:18 And, “If it is hard for the righteous to be saved, what will become of the ungodly and the sinner?” 2 Peter 2:9, if all this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials and to hold the unrighteous for punishment on the day of judgment.
You were designed to carry out your salvation. Only you can do this no one can walk it out for you it is personal first. I am talking about your walking and talking life with the Father of heaven and earth, your inward and outward conversation in the Almighty. We walk out our soul salvation by hearing the Spirit of Truth.
Faith is to take refuge in Jesus, To lean on Jesus, To Rely on Jesus, and to stay on Jesus. Psalm 2 notes for KJV.
Scripture Psalm 19:1-6, Galatians 5:24-25, Romans 8:11-16, Psalm 2:12, Ephesians 3:19
Do not let yourself be hurt for so long. Give the pain a sorrow to the Lord. His love heals the brokenhearted.
People that love you come along the side of you and show you support, they help you where you are hurting; they help you to get up when you fall down in spirit praying with you and praying for you, waiting with you. God’s love is greater than we know receive what God said about Himself and you. You have a promise investigate it and hold on to it say it and demand it proclaim it and do not stop until you see JESUS. Scripture: Isaiah 11:2-5 What the Holy Spirit does in you. Psalm 2:12 Kiss the Son. Romans 8:6 To be spiritually minded is life and peace, Job: Chapter 1-3 Proverbs 3:1-8
We have not seen the greatness of God's salvation in our personal life. He wants to show it to us. He has already shared it but do we know the intricacy of the salvation of God?
Scripture Hebrews 4:4:12-13, Hebrews 12:1-4, James 1:13-14, Zechariah 4:6-7, Psalm 91:14-16
The Inner part of you is filled with the love of God a love that he has for you. That love will affect everyone around you, but you have to step into the love that He is in you. (1 John 4:16 And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.) Focus on the length and width and height and depth of the love of Christ. This will get us beyond our understanding of the situations and circumstances in this life.
Scripture Psalm 91:2-3, Psalm 91:14, Genesis 4:5-8, Ephesians 3:16-21, Jude 1:21, 1 John 5
Always remember our strength comes from the Lord. The Spirit of God is giving us the ability to walk out our soul salvation.
Scripture Ezekiel 1:12-20, Psalm 37:39, Ephesians 3:16--21
Commit yourself to God. Let everything in you be open to the HolySpirit in every way that you would respond in this life. Let the Spirit of truth be the influencer, not your feelings. Knowing the Lord is everything. Christ the Lord is your life, you belong to Him.
Scripture 1:39-44, Hebrews 6:1-3
The hurt and pains in this life are NOT permanent God comforts our spirit and soul. Trouble puts thoughts and images in the mind that are hard to shake but nothing, absolutely nothing is too hard for the Lord. His love for you can not be taken. Romans 8:35,37 “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or distress or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? “-In all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. Emphasis on through Him. We purposely give every care to the Father so He can care for us. He knows the pain and can get you through it. Oh, how I pray for us to remember that God is in our past, present, and future. Trust Him.
Revelation 3:20, Psalm 119:105, John 14:26
Proverbs 4:20-23 My son, pay attention to my words; incline your ear to my sayings. Do not lose sight of them; keep them within your heart. For they are life to those who find them, and health to the whole body. Guard your heart with all diligence, for from it flow springs of life.
If we learn to take the people we love, the world, the situations, and circumstances before the Lord it will be easier to keep our hearts. The reason our heart and mind are kept in peace is that in our hearts we have stored the words of our Heavenly Father by the power of Him who loves us. Yes, we care for others, but we also care for ourselves by keeping ourselves in love with God. If we are not in love with him, how can we love anyone else, how can we pray for anyone? That love in you causes you to pray earnestly for others. Remember you are important to God do not walk in fear, anger, bitterness, resentment, depression, or confusion these attitudes are not what Jesus passed on to us. Know who you are. Know what you are made of. The Lord is with you and in you.
Scripture: Colossians 1:9-22, Hebrews 4:16, 1 John 5:16
Oh, how I pray for us to know the depths of God's love. Everything we need is in Him. The salvation we have received brings the very will of God to us. Knowing that we are the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus causes us to confess the words that bring life, the God kind of life.
Your life is hidden in Christ with God. Colossians 3:3 You are an heir of God. Romans 8:17
Scripture Mark 16:15-18, John 10:4-10
Our personal situations are not as personal as we think. We need to see them with a bigger lens. If we are going to stay in love with God the way we see the world needs to be with a spiritual lens. These commandments may be done with physical strength, but it is your spirit that agrees. The first commandment is to love the LORD your God with all your heart, soul, and strength. The second is to love your neighbor as yourself. I know that bringing up the commandments does not seem like the right direction to go in but knowing the Lord who is able to keep your heart and mind is first. Being in love with Him causes you to love your neighbor it causes you to love the world like Christ. Be imitators of God and walk in love.
Scripture Ephesians 5:1-5, John 17:3, James 4:6-7 John3:16-17, Luke 14:10-14
We are a mirrored reflection of Christ, a light to the world.
Scripture Isaiah 55:2-3, Matthew 5:14, Ephesians 3:16-21
Getting this soul to rest is work every day and night work. However, the Lord gets us to listen sometimes with songs of deliverance. Are we willing to hear by the Lord's unforced rhythm of grace? What does it mean to work out your own soul salvation? Let us layout our soul before the word of God so we can be led by the Spirit Truth.
Scripture: Colossians 3:2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.
Psalm 32:1-11, Hebrews 4:10-13, Romans 10:8-11
Love to all, keep a clear mind it is our inheritance.
Jesus has made us free from the bondage, the bondage that goes on in the mind. He has given us his Spirit who will lead us to call on the Father. The Holy Spirit will teach us to react to life from the inner man, He will show us how to react from the place within us that cannot be shaken. Lean on God and trust your salvation.
Scripture Jeremiah 29:11, Genesis 4:6, Deuteronomy 34:4-6, Laminations 3:19-26
When we are in that place of trouble, why are we moved? Moved in our emotions challenged to frantic and unruled thoughts. As children of God, we have a revelation in the deeper things of God. In us is the unshakable kingdom of Christ. I know this is a challenge but react to trouble with a calm spirit expecting to see the promise of the Father. let us do what Jesus did. Hope is in you do not let go of hope. Hope will keep you in peace but when a situation rises up like a storm on the sea remember the one that is in you. Hebrews 12:28
Scriptures Psalm 34:11-14, Psalm 91:1-2, Psalm 91:4, 1 John 4:4, Hebrews 12:28, Psalm34:5-8
Growing deeper into God's love brings us to where we are eager to live in His presence. We may not feel him but the knowledge of Him is in our hearts.

He will work it out for your good. 2 Chronicles 20: 1-25 See the salvation of the Lord in your life.
Be strong in the LORD because you are in Him. All the situations of life are outside of the kingdom of God, but you are in the kingdom, and the kingdom of God is within you. Know where you are. You are in Christ in God we have been moved from darkness to light in the spirit. Remember there is nothing too hard for God. All we have to do is learn to live in the spirit. Being spiritually minded is life and peace. Scripture Isaiah 55:2-3, 6- Psalm 23:1-6, Romans 8:5-7 Calm down let the Father feed you, we are his responsibility.

My desire is that we all go beyond the cross and truly learn to walk with the Holy Spirit. God has given us the rest we need, and it is all in Him.
Scriptures Psalm 32:1-11, Isaiah 43:1-5, Lamentations 3:19-26, John 3:3,5 Let the LORD lead you out of the captivity of your mind. Bitterness, rage, lack of self-control, fear, worry, hatred, and all the attitudes that defile us the Holy Spirit knows how to bring us into the nature of God. Will we hear Him? Will we desire to know the Father of heaven and earth more than the attitude we want to keep? Change your mind and take hold of the Kingdom of God. Peace is ours through Jesus Christ.
Let us learn not to lean on our imagination. Jesus has laid out salvation, and it is what we walk out every twenty-four-hour day. Let us open our ears to walk out this salvation; being mindful of the one who is bringing us into maturity. The more you know Jesus the more you lean on Him in everything. You will know the stranger's voice, and you won't follow him in the imagination of your mind. Trust the Lord today his words are spirit and life. You are invited to come to thrive in the Father of heaven and earth.
ScriptureIsaiah 55:6-10, Isaiah 11:2-4, Matthew 4:1-11Philippians 1:6, 1 Corinthians 1:8, Genesis 15:1
The Lord wants us to be full of the knowledge of Him, He wants us to have a true understanding of our salvation, He wants us to rest in his Son. Having an expectation that this situation will work out for your good even if it means shutting some doors and opening new ones in your life. Be willing to let go and move on even when you don't understand even when it hurts.

Scripture Galatians 5:22-23
Standing securely and firmly in Christ in the Father by knowing who He is and who you are in Him. You are loved and have been made in Christ. You are the beloved of God.

Scriptures Psalm 91:1-16, Proverbs 3:1-8, Psalm 19:13
Be encouraged to keep going, to keep walking in the spirit even though things don't look right or sound right. The Lord has given us wisdom, power, and authority to overcome everything we will face; The Lord is the strength of our lives. Get up and keep practicing the presence of the Lord.
God is offering everyone, your neighbor, your enemy, the bully at school Life -spiritual life.
Please, be so encouraged to stay with the Lord. Will he find faith when he comes? We live in a hostile place and God is doing surgery of love and of grace. Let the Holy Spirit make you the true child of God that you are.
Trusting the Lord in life and in death. Death will come to all of us until Jesus comes again, Mark 13:25-27. We have been given everlasting life lets take the fear out of living and know Jesus, read John 3:16. We are protected from judgment the judgment of God. The word of God judges everyone, make sure the word is in you.
Scripture Deuteronomy 6:5 Revelation 12:10-11, 2 Peter 2
Faith has Knowledge, Faith has wisdom, Faith has understanding an understanding of who God is. Jesus asked his disciples, Who do you say I am? Knowing the Father and the Son is life. There are a lot of rhythms that we can feel in this life, but this rhythm is heard in the silence of the heart, (spirit) In quietness and in confidence we find strength, Isaiah 30:15. Grace is an unforced rhythm that works in the heart on the waves of faith, faith toward God. Have an insatiable love for God that nothing and no one can satisfy but His words. Keep yourself in love with God. Jude 1:21 Scripture Matthew 16:17-19, Revelation 12:11, Ephesians 3:16-21, Zechariah 4:6-7 Grace, grace is the rhythm of our hearts toward God. Please stay in love with Him.

Scripture 62:1-12, Psalm 2:1-4, Isaiah 11:2-3
Faith comes by hearing the word of God. Have we heard, have we so learned Christ? Ephesians 4:21. We should know what the will of the Lord is. Ephesians 5: 16-17 The love of God will teach you the difference between good and evil. Scripture Romans 10:17, Matthew 4:4 John17:2 Luke 17:26, Noah walked with God: Genesis 6:9, Hebrews 11:7
In order to shine as a light in this world, love has to be recognized. The love that God has for you must be recognized in you by you. Then will love truly manifest outwardly in all we do. If we are going to work out our souls' salvation knowing the depth of Christ's love will truly help us. Let's also remember that Christ loves his church and washes and cleanses her with the words he has spoken. Jesus loves his body we are that body. God did not intend for darkness to be in us, so stop consuming it be careful of what you put before your eyes and what you allow in your ears. Faith Comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God.
Scripture Ephesians 4:20-32; Ephesians 5:1-20, 29-30
Trust your Father, the true Father, the one who will strengthen you and keep your heart and mind. We have been blinded to the beauty of God's holiness through the deceitfulness of sin. As I remember it Lots soul was vexed by lawlessness, 1 Peter 2:8 Scriptures John 14:1, Proverbs 13:12, Isaiah 54:1-17, Romans 10:8-11, Romans 8:14-15, Matthew 6:32-33, 1Peter 2:7-9

Who is first before in everything it is God the Father, and the Son. In Psalm 23 King David put God first. His desire was to dwell in the presence of the Lord forever. That should be our desire to dwell in the house of the Lord, where find wisdom, knowledge, and strength for all our needs even when we feel confused. Do not let the enemy trouble you. psalm 23:1-6, Psalm 27: 4
The Lord will keep us in perfect peace because we acknowledge His words are life. Jesus said, John 6:63 The Spirit gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life.
Trust His Promise

Stay true to The Father because He will not abandon you. Grow in the knowledge of the Father and The Son.
Ephesians 1:23 says, "We are filled with Christ." The armour of God is truth, right living, peace, faith, salvation the word of God, praying and never giving up. I would like to say expect a smackdown the devil never plays fair, and the flesh is too stupid to listen. That is why we have to learn to walk by faith and not by sight. We learn to live in every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. Remember who you are and where you are seated (Ephesians 2:6) we are all in Christ. Scriptures Ephesians 1:19-23, Ephesians 6:14-18 Psalm 46, Hebrews 4:16 (14-16), John 17:3, Ephesians 2:1:10,
The word is the reminder of what God has said. God is able to get you through this day, be curious about the word of God.

What happens if you won't follow Christ, but you run after every voice in the world? This world will not always be the way that it is, there is a day of the Lord . The Lord wants to teach us spiritual warfare right now, but are we willing to hear and be taught, or do we already know? Scripture 2 Corinthians 6:17-18, 2 Corinthians 7:1
Let the love of God wash your heart and mind. Scriptures Song of Solomon 5:9-16, Romans811-16, 2 Corinthians 7:1
1 Peter 4:8 "Love covers a multitude of sins". That is how it is said in other translations. The Amplified Bible says it like this, Above all, have fervent and unfailing love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins [it overlooks unkindness and unselfishly seeks the best for others]. We are looking for the salvation of many, so let's be careful of what we think and how we treat others. Love God, love each other, and love people. Be a lover of God and His love will flow through you. Throw anger and bitterness away It's not good for your health or the prosperity of your soul. Scripture Jonah 4:10-11, Jonah 4:1-4 1 Corinthians13:1-7, 8 "Love will last forever." Proverbs 3:3-8 God blessing to you all, and much love Pastor Cheryl
When we know Christ's love, we can be filled with the fullness of God. Let us keep ourselves in love with God so we can know His love and do good. Please remember we are not fighting with people this is a spiritual fight.
Scripture Ephesians 3:18-20, Ephesians 4:1-16 also Ephesians 6:10-20
Colossians 3:3-4Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.… Reading Colossians 3: 1-16 is a good thing so that we are not bringing trouble in to our lives.

Other scriptures Ephesians 6:12 1 John 4:4, 1 John 5::4-6, John 16:32-33 Remember this WE OVERCOME THE WORLD BY FAITH in what God said, I AM!
The Lord wants to help us build up in our most holy faith. 2 Corinthians 7:1 Therefore, since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God. How do we perfect ourselves in the sight of God? We do it by lying our soul out in the word of God. King David said, "The entrance of your word brings light; it gives understanding to the simple". That means it brings revelation, wisdom, insight and so much more for our soul. Lord help us to have your thoughts and your ways.

Consumed with the issues of life? The Lord will not let your mind stay in a mess He makes a way of escape. Jesus let the one who judges rightly take care of him, and so should we. We trust the Lord with our lives with every issue, with all that concerns us, and with every breath, we worship, praise, and adore Him. This is the walk of salvation, we trust the God and Father of our salvation, we look to Jesus the author and finisher of our faith. Let us dive deep into the inner man and learn to walk by the Holy Spirit. Scripture 1 Peter 2:23-25, Matthew11:28-30, Hebrews 12:1-4
Do not be moved Scripture Psalm 62:1-, Psalm 91, Proverbs 3:6-8, Psalm 138:8, Exodus 33:18-19, Exodus 34:5-6, Hebrews 4:14-16 Isaiah 57:15-19 Trust God!
We are in Christ in God. His love is poured out into our hearts every second of every moment all of our days. His word changes everything and it brings us through the battles of life in perfect peace. Don't be afraid you are more than a conqueror, and Greater is He that you than he that is in the world.
Scripture John 17:20-21, John 4:14-24, Romans 8:37, 1 John 4:4
Stand your ground you are in the right place you are in Christ, in God. He is our life be encouraged.

May they also be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me.
Scripture Ezekiel 37:1-14 Get a vision of God's restorative work in you. He wants to put His word in your heart and write it on your mind. That is what makes us, that is what restores our soul to the original pattern that the Father of heaven and earth planned for you and me. Scripture Hebrews 8:10, Jeremiah 31:33-34
Every day we sound like Job and his friends, we talk about things we do not understand. That is vanity, that is PRIDE. Let us not underestimate God He has set us free by His Word, is that word in our hearts and on our minds? We have been set free mentally, physically, and emotionally by Jesus. It is hard to praise and see the results promised to us when we are consumed with self someone else, or something else. God knows our needs and knew them before we had the need. He stored in heaven for us all the blessings, yet self stands in the way. Let us make a path to the inner-man and find rest for our soul.
Supporting scriptures John 8:31-37, Job 36:15-16, 1 Peter 5:5-10, Romans 10:6-10, Hebrews 13:20-21, Revelation 12:10-12, Corinthians 15:57-58, Psalm 8:1-2.

John 6:53-58 So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I tell you, unless you eat the flesh and drink the blood of the Son of Man, you have no life in you. Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For My flesh is real food, and My blood is real drink. Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood remains in Me, and I in him. Just as the living Father sent Me and I live because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on Me will live because of Me. This is the bread that came down from heaven. Unlike your fathers, who ate the manna and died, the one who eats this bread will live forever.” Close your eyes and imagine you are standing there when Jesus is saying this. Now examine your heart and remember He is the Life.
Do you want strong confidence, a faith that stands and does not and does not shrink back? God Almighty is faithful to strengthen us and supplies the physical and emotional need, but it starts in the spirit. This world will make you shake, shutter, and compromise your soul, the very life we put in the Lord's hands. We must ask ourselves; do I know you, Lord? am I hearing what you promised? am I conceiving the words you promised in my heart? He hears us and knows what we long for so bring your concern to the Lord and take His promise for it. Read these scriptures and get an understanding, Isaiah 30:15-22, Proverbs 14:26-27, Philippians 4:6-8. Find out what the real idols are in your life it could be your own thoughts. Remember He is faithful in all that He has promised. Hebrews 10:22-24
I love how Solomon sums up the duty of mankind in Ecclesiastes 12:13, "Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the duty of all mankind." The commandment of God is love, it sums up the whole law. Matthew 22:37-40 "Jesus declared, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”
The spiritual emphasis on life is love. The commandment is first spiritual because Jehovah is Spirit and those who worship Him worship in spirit and in truth John 4:23-24. Knowing God and Jesus the Christ the Son of the living God this is how we remain in love and walk in love nothing is too hard when we know the Lord. All eyes on the Jehovah.
Scriptures Psalm 23, Eccliasties 12:13, James 4:6-10, 2 Corinthians 1:3-4
God exists rather we feel like trusting Him or not. God-ELOHIM is in all places at all times and we the children of God by faith in Christ should know that; we should know the He is with us. If we truly have the knowledge of the self-existing one firmly planted in our hearts grace should be overflowing in our lives. The way into the presence of God is not in anger, fear, anxiety, depression nor complaint all of that is pride; The way is through Christ. Jesus said, "learn of me" Matthew 11:28-30 He is the way that leads to real life, the truth is in Jesus. The truth is the word of God and that word existed before the world began. The Alfa and Omega the first and the last the Son of God has brought us into true fellowship with the Father and the Father has given us His Son. Let us calm down and cast away the restraints in our lives and see what Jesus gave us in his sacrifice. Jesus has shown us that the words of our Father never fail. Expect and keep on expecting what God has said. Sorry for any typos, :) Love to all!!!
Solomon gives his final advice in Ecclesiastes 12:13 he says, "Honor God and obey His commands, because this is all people must do." The first commandment is to love God, it is to know Him who is faithful. The second commandment is like it, it is to love people. Our relationship with the Lord is everything because He is, we are. Be a true child of God by faith in Jesus Christ.
Scriptures Ecclesiastes 8:15, Isaiah 55:1-9, Isaiah 9:1-7, Matthew 22:37-39
We are precious to God, be encouraged, and trust Him. Scripture today Colossians 1:9-14 (11-12), Jeremiah 29:11-14, Isaiah 55:7-8 Please remember you are so very precious to the Lord. His love will fill your heart, and His peace will keep your mind.
“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” John 16:33. The word of God is truly living and active and when we apply what God said to the experience we are physically walking through we will see success. Scripture meditation is Proverbs 3:1-8.
We have so much life in the Son it is worth finding out, it is worth exploring. The knowledge of God is spoken to our hearts by the Holy Spirit who teaches us all things, everything that pertains to life and godliness. Trust Him today.
We learn how to walk by faith. Our lives are built on the words of many including our own, so we must be careful of how we hear. If we would just get quiet before God, He would teach us how to walk out our soul salvation in true reverence before Him because he is before us in all things. Remember this: The thing we should want most is God's kingdom and doing what God wants.
Scripture Matthew 6: 26-34 Matthew 7:13-14
The Light of the world has lit us, we are free from all the bondage in the flesh. Our thought life is changing our desires are changing we are gaining control over our emotions, and all because the entrance of God's word brings light. The word brings a revelation, an awakening, an awareness, it brings wisdom, knowledge, and understanding, and these bring strength and confidence. Therefore, all our confidence is in Jesus. Jesus is the original who put No confidence in the flesh that to say in his own ability, but he showed us what it is like to live in the will and thoughts of God Almighty. How much do we want to know the good things God the Father of heaven and earth has in mind for us?

God will bring you through a hard time without leaving you in mental disorder. He is able to keep our heart and mind in perfect peace because our mind, our soul, our thoughts our will, and our emotions we have submitted to Him. Ask the Lord when you don't know what to do, to remind you of the truth, the truth is the word of God, and it is this word that continues to keep you sanctified. Isaiah 55:2 Listen diligently to me, and eat that which is good and let your soul delight itself in fatness. That fatness is the knowledge of God and Jesus Christ His Son. Scripture Psalm 37:4; James 4:6-7; Zechariah 4:6-7; John 17:13-17
The just will live by faith in God because He Is. He has always existed and is in us to us and through us. We should know in our hearts that God is with us in all things He is faithful in all His promises, but do we know the promises? We learn how to walk with God in faith and the faith grows as we acknowledge ELOHIM in every situation. Life and peace are a promise yet there is so much to be revealed. The righteous will walk by faith in the knowing God is the living God, and Jesus is alive; what do we believe? We have been made right with God by His Son Jesus Now we have a real life. Let us walk with God trusting Him with our lives all the way. Scripture Romans 1:16-17 Genesis 6:9, 7:1 Exodus 33:12-33, 34:5-9 2 Timothy 3:11-13
Let your soul prosper in knowledge. The knowledge of God will keep you from being overtaken in your mind by wicked thoughts. Those are thoughts that do not build up but tear down, they do not fortify and strengthen but bring you into condemnation, guilt, and shame. The thoughts of God towards us are good, they are thoughts of peace to bring us success. When we take in the knowledge of God, we will see life beyond the flesh, live beyond the physical, and we will see our soul prosper. Do not consider your feelings consider faith, faith toward God. Scripture support, 2 Corinthians 10:5, Psalm 91:1-16 Luke 10:18-20 Isaiah 54:1-17
I am making a path to the inner man, that quiet and meek part of us that is of great worth in God’s sight. The soul is made up of the way we think, our will, and our emotions we must learn to master our soul in spirit and in truth. Our soul is washed by the word. That could be any word we hear because all words play a part in what we decide from one day to next it is all about what you believe. But the word of God will strengthen our spirit and give us self control so that we can truly walk out our soul salvation. Scriptures Proverbs 9:10-11, Proverbs 3:5-6; 1 Peter5:6-10

Psalm 2:12 Kiss the Son. That is how close we ought to get to the LORD. Let us understand the love relationship we have with the Lord. Trusting Him is mandatory, rolling our cares on Him is mandatory. Our salvation is in rest, it is resting in Him the High and Lofty One who inhabits eternity. It is leaning on Him and, relying on Him, it is staying on Jesus the Christ the Son of the Living God. When we stay on Him it means to in all your ways to acknowledge Him, in doing so that the Lord will show us His Will and His Thoughts. He will keep our hearts and minds in perfect peace.
Scripture Proverbs 3:1-8; Isaiah 55:1-9; Proverbs 9:10-11; Psalm 91:1 NIV
One day the whole earth will be filled with the knowledge of God. (Habakkuk 2:14) God Is and He made us, everything consists because of the word He spoke. Let's get the word in our face and become like Christ. This is going to take some work, you are going to have to unplug from the situations and close some doors and windows in your life. Are you ready? This will require Psalm 91, you see God's word is living and active teaching us day and night how to rely on God, teaching us how to rest in everything He has shown us. The result will be living with the true nature of God, the fruit of the Spirit. Galatians 5:22-25
God's word is our shield. Psalm 91:1-4 1 He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.” Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler And from the perilous pestilence. He shall cover you with His feathers, and under His wings, you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler-(surrounding shield).
Isaiah 41:10-14 Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’ “Behold, all those who were incensed against you Shall be ashamed and disgraced; They shall be as nothing, And those who strive with you shall perish. You shall seek them and not find them—Those who contended with you. Those who war against you Shall be as nothing, As a nonexistent thing. For I, the Lord your God will hold your right hand, Saying to you, ‘Fear not, I will help you.’ 14“Fear not, you worm Jacob, You men of Israel! I will help you,” says the Lord And your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.
The truth about our salvation is knowing Him who is faithful and true. Know that He is with us whatever we face. But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: and in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple. Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face. Psalm 5:7-8
It is imperative right now in our lives that we get close to God. Come on with me as we move into that secret place in God, and learn to stay there in our hearts in every situation. Just like the apostles of the faith, we will stand in faith until the day we meet Christ in the air. Scripture Psalm 91, John 10:7-10
Let us perfect our love by submitting to God in every thought, in our stubborn will and feelings. Why because Gods perfect love will be poured out in each one of us in a greater measure and believe me we need that right now. Scriptures 1Peter 3:8-12 -22, 1 John 4:11-21, (Matthew 25:34) The Kingdom is the blessing we receive for the real love walk.
I was thinking about the power that worked in Elijah when he told Ahab It would not rain in 1 Kings 17. Then in James 5:17 it is spoken of again as if the same Almighty power and authority of God is living in each of us, we can do all things through Christ who gives us strength.. All we have to do is know our Father and get closer to Him. Scripture to read James 5:13-20; John chapther 20 and 21. To God be the glory, let us go beyond the cross.
God goes beyond the issue and goes straight to the heart. Will you learn this scripture with me, "Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God." Deuteronomy 8:3, Matthew 4:4 We can do this! We can live on the Word of God there is no power greater than what God said, we can trust Him. The Lord is speaking in your day so listen with your heart. Stay in love and forgive others, practice forgiveness. Remember what real love is 1 Corinthians 13:4-7, and remember love never fails.
There is a bare truth in us, known to God alone. He knows every thought we have, and says come to me I want to help you think right. No clothing can hide our soul from the Living God. I am so grateful for his grace and mercy. He could have thrown us away. Instead, He says come learn of me, He says, seek ye first the kingdom of God and my righteousness, He says, cast your care before me, He says, my grace is sufficient for you, He says, come to the throne of grace... It's all free of charge. I will help you believe that I Am. I have life for you. Scripture Isaiah 6:1-8; Hebrews 4:9-13; John 4:13-24.
We have a relationship with the Father of heaven and earth, the One who created all things, humanity was made by Him therefore He owns all life. He saved us from sin and from the punishment of sin which is spiritual death being put away from God forever. We were thoughtfully made, think about that and the Lord knows that we can not live outside of Him. Let us learn how to possess our souls.
Hebrews 4:14-16; 2 Thessalonians 3:3
Jesus bore the weight of the unbelief of the whole world. When we said yes to Him being the head of our lives we were saying I trust you, Lord. We are so consumed by our situations of this life that we don't know our salvation and have lost sight of our everlasting life. Let us be reminded of the life we have through faith in Christ Jesus.
There is a love that superabounds in every situation walking with you in this life. A love that is washing the nature of sin out of you by what he said. Will we believe the words of the Creator of all the ends of the earth, the High and lofty One who inhabits eternity; The one that does not want your spirit or soul to fail? He wants to heal you and fill you with His words of life. Recieve them today and Get The Word In Your Face.

Part 2 If we want to be bold our personal walk with God must be real in all situations and circumstances. Boldness will rise in us as we stop leaning on our understanding. Let go of your will for His will. God wants to work in you His way of living. Jesus the true example of the Father. He showed us how the word of God works in this flesh and blood body. We are created beings on this planet, and our time here is up. We do not know the day or hour that Christ will come in the clouds, but we need to trust the Lord now with every emotion and let every thought open before Him so we can be washed in the Word.
God made it our choice to follow Him Salvation has been offered to the whole world to all who draw a breath. No matter what they have done God's forgiveness is absolute it is full, not partial. Love covers a multitude of sin. 1 Peter 4:8 Proverbs 10:12 Let us get our minds on things above you are not alone Set you mind in Christ settle it now that situation and circumstance God is with you and will be your strength and guide. Read Daniel 3:13-30 Their mind was set in this situation.
Jesus came and showed us the power of God's word in a flesh and blood body. He did not come to just die but to take us beyond the cross. Blessed are those who have not seen him and yet believe that he is.
We have fed ourselves with so much of this present world that we have walked right into the trap of the enemy into the net of fear confusion, and frustration. We have forgotten that we have power over all the works of the enemy, and nothing will by any means hurt us... Luke 10:19. Didn't we read that perfect love cast out fear? These words are our confession and many more like them. We must take back what the enemy has taken and stop living in the knowledge of the current things and begin to speak what the Holy Spirit is showing us. Our knowledge of God and our savior will bring us out of fear. Remember Jesus brought total victory over the flesh the devil and the world. Love to all.
Sorry for the typos and my loudness.
Sorry for the choppiness in this file. Our physical body without God is nothing. Having a relationship with God is everything. He knows our hurt and pain and wants us to trust Him. God has been lied on, rejected, and hurt, but he is not a God that lays around doing nothing He set time and made a place for His enemies.
The whole world has had an adulterous affair against its creator yet His love for His creation sends salvation to all who will come to Him and learn who He is when we do we find out who we truly are and find rest, confidence, and strength in all we face in this life.
Just like the breath is in your body so is the Lord right there with you. Even in the midst of all the trouble, in all the pain, in all the hurt the Lord is there for you. We have the Mighty God, Wonderful Counselor, the Prince of Peace, The Everlasting Father ready to strengthen us, ready to give us wisdom. Closer than the person next to you the Lord is right there He is in you. Elohim will never leave You! Whatever we are facing He is the rest in peace, strength, and the wisdom of our life.
We have got to stand regardless of what anyone else is doing.
We are working our way into the inner man, so we can learn to walk in the spirit and not in our feelings. Let us get through the situation and circumstances of our lives together.
The way into the deepest part of you is by rest and peace. It is all in trusting God and believing every word that He said and continues to say. No matter the situation we are in, greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world the answer is in our Father. We lack nothing even when it looks like we do, our faith is not in what is seen but in every word of God. Jesus said my words are spirit and they are life; come learn what that means by taking the time to sit with the Lord and let Him reveal who He is in you.
Love you, blessings to all!
Choose life by Loving God obeying His voice and cleaving to Him. Step away from the way things look and feel and trust what the Lord has promised. He promised life abundantly that's what He has in mind for us. We have been blessed we no longer live under a curse. But we have to read about this stuff, knowing God and the life He has given us comes because we make time for Him, we truly want to know HIM. Scripture Deuteronomy 30:11-20 suggested Scripture Romans 10:6-13; Hebrews 4:9-13. Get the word in your face and choose the Life God has given.
Colossians 1:22-23 …But now He has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death to present you holy, unblemished, and blameless in His presence—if indeed you continue in your faith, established and firm, not moved from the hope of the gospel you heard, which has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven, and of which I, Paul, have become a servant. Let us continue in the faith no matter what is presently going on in our lives.
God bless you all and great peace.
Part 2 Let God by His Spirit show us life. To Live Is Christ, this is what our hearts and minds should be wanting to be busy about the fruitful works of righteousness not consumed with the unfruitful works of darkness. We are the children of God by faith the good of Christ is in us to do a work on the earth that will lift up the name of Jesus and bring glory to God. Let us not be consumed with our life in this world we a long, long way to go. Everlasting is a promise now let us be sure of where we spend it.

Let us not be consumed with our life in this world we a long, long way to go. Everlasting is a promise now let us be sure of where we spend it.
Moses says to the God in Exodus 33:13-14, Now therefore, I pray You, if I have found favor in Your sight, let me know Your ways that I may know You, so that I may find favor in Your sight. Consider too, that this nation is Your people.” And He said, “My presence shall go with you, and I will give you rest.” God's presence the Holy Spirit is with us in all things no matter what we face, no matter how the world around you is. 1 John 4:4 But you belong to God, my dear children. You have already won a victory over those people, because the Spirit who lives in you is greater than the spirit who lives in the world. Gods promise is with you I will not leave you so trust Him today.
My love to all, Stay close to Jesus he will not forget you.
Conceive by faith the word God has said to you and see it happen; because no word from the Lord will return void. The power of the Highest will strengthen you in the things that may be hard for you. Be encouraged to stand strong until we meet Him in the air.
Be Consumed with God, be strengthened, be sure, believe God, be in love with God trust Him and let him be your strength right now. The Lord is the rock of our salvation, He will hold us together when everything is falling apart. And Please I say it again be consumed with God not what people say about you. God says you are mine, you are the apple of my eye, I will never leave you, I have plans for your life plans of peace and not evil... It is all written in the Word.
Part 2. Please be consumed with God and not your situation, the people around you, or the current world condition. Trust God Him you are His forever. You have been given true life but it is all in knowing the Father the one true God and Jesus Christ whom the Father has sent; this is where life is it is in the LIFE GIVER. Let us return to our first love.
We are in the hand of God He will not let us go, so do not walk away from Him. Receive the wisdom, knowledge and understanding you need. The Lord wants to share life with you. In the situation you face we learn to turn to Him our refuge and strength our very present help in every situation. Let the fire of the word burn in you destroy every work of the enemy in you.
In returning and rest you are saved and because of this you will walk in the strength and confidence of God; not in the weakness of our frail human flesh but in the wisdom and knowledge that the Almighty wants to give you. Be sure you know Him, be ready.
Let God become your passion and hear the words that lead to life; life the way the Father of heaven and earth planned. And let us be ready for the moment the trumpet sounds because we will rise.
Know that you know God and Jesus the One God, sent. Do we understand our lives? Are we aware of the everlasting life we have with the Lord? Christ has gone before us to bring us into glory, but we must cling to Jesus having our hearts ear (spiritual ear)open to hearing by the Holy Spirit. The Bible says, “Do not be conformed to the image of this world but be transformed by renewing your mind.” This renewing comes by intimacy, we give Him our heart our mind, will, and emotions and we are changed by the knowledge of God. We can know His love how deep, wide, long, and high Gods' is love in every situation and circumstance. This love heals all your heartache, calms you in distresses. Jesus is coming back soon and we the bride must make ourselves ready, by getting our soul washed in the word.
Let's wake up and realize the kingdom within us and the kingdom outside of us. We have available to us more then we could ask our think according to how much we will give our selves to hearing by the Holy Spirit. Jesus showed us how to trust the Father all the way to the resurrection.

Reading from 2 Corinthians 12:9-11; Isaiah 55:6-11 Psalm 23 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.

While we were sinners Christ died for us the signs and wonders of God work in the world, his goodness leads to repentance. No matter the disease, mental disability all things are possible with God. We really need to get our eyes on Christ again, there is nothing not known by God just as there is nothing new under the sun. We are vessels of honor desiring to be filled with the wisdom, knowledge and strength of the Lord. Yet we need to lay down this frail composition (body) and start looking to where are help truly comes from. We Are Loved, the whole world is Loved by God let's start looking like Christ, no not by might nor by power but by the Spirit of the LORD. Scripture read Ephesians 1:11-23, Hebrews 4:14-16, Proverbs 3:3-8 KJV & NLT

Scriptures John 14:23,26-27 3Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our abode with him.26“But 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 said to you. 27“Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful. Genesis 50:20 You intended to harm me, but God intended it all for good. He brought me to this position so I could save the lives of many people.

Scripture Matthew 5:3 Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.... The poor in spirit are those who know their need for God. In our need for Him our salvation is revealed more and more our hope, and future is seen as we draw near to God and enquire of Him in the situations. The mystery of the situation gets revealed the kingdom peace comes the comfort comes the word the idea the desire comes. We are the ones that diligently seek Him Hebrews (11:6) We are the ones who hear the word that the Holy Spirit reminds us of and we apply it. Scripture can be found in (Isaiah 55:11) I'm paraphrasing here: where God sends His word it Does not return void but accomplishes what He sent it to do.
Genesis 50:20 0 You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.
Be blessed people of God, and grow in the knowledge of Christ who accomplished everything for us.

One word from the Holy Spirit destroys the toil of the soul, one from Him brings peace to your emotions. One word strengthens your weakness and defeats the already defeated destroyer of your soul. Greater He that is in you then he that is in the world.
It is so easy to be and get deceived We are suppose to be aware of satan strategies and know our own flesh.
Scripture Ephesians 6:10-14, 2 Corinthians 10:3-11
While we were yet sinners are sins was forgiven, while we were yet sinners we were healed. Every good and perfect thing was waiting for before we knew it. The demonstration of Gods love for the whole world. Full scripture read Romans 5:1-11 Romans 5:8-11 But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. And since we have been made right in God’s sight by the blood of Christ, he will certainly save us from God’s condemnation. For since our friendship with God was restored by the death of his Son while we were still his enemies, we will certainly be saved through the life of his Son. So now we can rejoice in our wonderful new relationship with God because our Lord Jesus Christ has made us friends of God.

He is truly the Most High God and is worth finding out. We can know Him personally if we really want to, and it is in your best interest to get to know him, for there is no one and nothing greater than Almighty God. He created the world and all that there is in it, seen and unseen. He desires you, all of you, your mind, will, and emotions He wants to care for you. I am glad we have the choice to be His, because no one in this earth has loved me the way He has. My mind, will, and emotions have been kept by Him. Nothing is great for God.
Scripture today Hebrews 115-6 It was by faith that Enoch was taken to heaven so he would not die. He could not be found, because God had taken him away. Before he was taken, the Scripture says that he was a man who truly pleased God. Without faith no one can please God. Anyone who comes to God must believe that he is real and that he rewards those who truly want to find him. New Century Translation
We have to wake up and recover ourselves from the snare we have been caught in, and that comes from hanging out in Psalm 91 & 27.
