🕊️  The Beginning of Knowledge

The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel:

To know wisdom and instruction,

To perceive the words of understanding,

To receive the instruction of wisdom,

Justice, judgment, and equity;

To give prudence to the simple,

To the young man knowledge and discretion—

A wise man will hear and increase learning,

And a man of understanding will attain wise counsel,

To understand a proverb and an enigma,

The words of the wise and their riddles.

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge,

But fools despise wisdom and instruction. 🕊️

Proverbs 1:1-7

Good morning Father!

Thank You for this day!

Thank You for my life!

Thank You for my sweet bride, Amy!

Thank You for my beautiful daughter, Selah!

All that I am and all I possess, they are blessings from You O Lord!

Thank You!

Father, may You bless me with Your Holy Spirit today, open my mind and my heart, to truly understand the knowledge and wisdom of the Words You speak!

Bless me this morning Jesus! 

Let me walk in the light with You today, as a son with his Father, teaching Your son Truth and Life, in terms I understand.

Holy Spirit, please fill me and lead me! 

Teacher, I need You today, may I put on the full armor of God, and may I have open ears, an open heart, and an open mind, to follow Your Word, O Lord, and step out in Faith, to live the life of Truth, albeit, filled with choices, may You guide me to the right and just choices, and forgive me when I step out of bounds, bring me back to the path of Truth and following the Way.

Jesus, I lift up All my loved ones this morning, that they may hear Your Holy Spirit’s ‘call’, may they follow Your Leading, to the path of Life and Truth.

Jesus, my Lord, my Savior, my Shepherd and my Redeemer, I lift up All my children before You this morning, All my grandchildren and their little ones, I pray for their safety, I pray for their spirit and souls, may Your Holy Spirit, Your Teacher, fill each one today, may they accept the gifts You have to offer them and may they learn to follow the Way, may they bring Your light with them into the darkness, leading the lost and the blind to Redemption, may they be Your tools of Faith and Salvation, to all around them, may they walk in boldness and newness of life today.

Bless my children O Lord Jesus!

Father, may I shine my light today and walk in Your Way, may my whole being be focused on You O Lord and bring glory to Your Holy name, Yahweh, in and through all I say and do today, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. 

Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 

For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. 

And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak. 🕊️

Ephesians 6:10-20

Fill me again today Father, May Your Holy Spirit, keep fresh in my mind, my heart, my spirit, every verse and teaching found in Your Word, and the revelation and wisdom found therein. 

May I be used by You, O Lord, as Your vessel for Truth and Faith, in and through all I say and do today, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

 ע AYIN

🕊️ I have done justice and righteousness;

Do not leave me to my oppressors.

Be surety for Your servant for good;

Do not let the proud oppress me.

My eyes fail from seeking Your salvation

And Your righteous word.

Deal with Your servant according to Your mercy,

And teach me Your statutes.

I am Your servant;

Give me understanding,

That I may know Your testimonies.

It is time for You to act, O LORD,

For they have regarded Your law as void.

Therefore I love Your commandments

More than gold, yes, than fine gold!

Therefore all Your precepts concerning all things

I consider to be right;

I hate every false way.

 פ PE

Your testimonies are wonderful;

Therefore my soul keeps them.

The entrance of Your words gives light;

It gives understanding to the simple.

I opened my mouth and panted,

For I longed for Your commandments.

Look upon me and be merciful to me,

As Your custom is toward those who love Your name.

Direct my steps by Your word,

And let no iniquity have dominion over me. 🕊️

Psalms 119:121-133

Good morning Father!

Thank You for this day!

Thank You for my life!

Thank You for my sweet bride, Amy!

Thank You for my beautiful daughter, Selah!

All that I am and all I possess, they are blessings from You O Lord!

Thank You!

Father, Today may I be filled with Your Holy Spirit, may I walk in the light with You and learn of Your Way, may Your Holy Spirit, Your Teacher, guide me in my walk of Faith, and shine Your light in the darkness around me, may I bring glory to Your Holy name, Yahweh!

Bless All my children today Father, All my grandchildren, and their little ones, may they receive Your Holy Spirit today, and walk in the light, as Your children, may they learn of You and the Way, may they bring light into the darkness around them today, may You keep them safe in Your loving arms, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ At that time Jesus answered and said, “I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and have revealed them to babes. 

Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight. 

All things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father. 

Nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him. Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 

Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 

For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” 🕊️

Matthew 11:25-30

Good morning Father!

Thank You for this day!

Thank You for my life!

Thank You for my sweet bride, Amy!

Thank You for my beautiful daughter, Selah!

All that I am and all I possess, they are blessings from You O Lord!

Thank You!

Father, may I receive the “yoke” upon me, the one You speak of in Your Word today, that I might hear Your Word and ‘learn’ from You, teach me to be gentle and lowly in heart, help me to find the rest for my soul.

Lord, I believe Your Way is rooted in Grace, Mercy, and Love, which give me the ‘Rest’ You speak of in Your Word.

Jesus, I believe, You call Your yoke “easy” and Your burden “light” because Your way is rooted in Grace, Mercy, and Love. 

Many shepherds create “rules” they place on all people, without studying the “Root” meaning of Your Words, or in following in the Way to true “rest”.

Father, I lift up All my children before You, All my grandchildren, and all the ones who come after them, may they receive Your Word today, may they learn of You and accept the “Yoke” You speak of in Your Word, may they learn to walk humbly before You and receive the “rest” You speak of in Your Word.

Bless me this day O Lord, may I shine the light of Your Holy Spirit, in and through all I say and do today, in Jesus’ name, Amen! 

Praise Yahweh!

“Judge not, and you shall not be judged. 

Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. 

Forgive, and you will be forgiven. 

Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. 

For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.” 🕊️

Luke 6:37-38

Father, I take joy in my morning prayers to You today, just as each morning comes a new day, each day allows a new opportunity to Praise You, my God, and share the Good news of Jesus Christ, our Savior, our Redeemer, and the blessings we receive when we believe!

I lift up All my children before You today Father, may they receive their sight and in reading Your Word, may they begin the journey towards the light, on the path which leads to life and Faith, the joy of Salvation in Jesus Christ!

Father may Your Holy Spirit bless each child, each grandchild, and every little one which comes into this life, may they be Your guiding lights into a life free of guilt and shame, for the lost and those wandering aimlessly in the darkness around them, may they find You in their day today, may Your Spirit keep them safe and on the path of the Way, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

O Lord, I lift my arms in Praise to You, Father, may I be filled with Your Holy Spirit today, may I walk in the path of the Way and shine my light, the light You placed within me, outwardly into the darkness, may the light reach those who are desperate to find You, in terrible need of the healing and comfort of Your presence in their lives, may this be my ask for today, and for Your blessing, in and through all I say and do, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ “And behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work. 

I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last.”

Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city. 

But outside are dogs and sorcerers and sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and whoever loves and practices a lie.

“I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. 

I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star.”

And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely.

~~~ A Warning

For I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds to these things, God will add to him the plagues that are written in this book; and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the Book of Life, from the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.

~~~ I Am Coming Quickly

He who testifies to these things says, “Surely I am coming quickly.”

Amen! Even so, come, Lord Jesus!

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen! 🕊️

🕊️ “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.

“But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. 

And great was its fall.” 🕊️

Father, You have always been watching over me, my whole life.

I have not always followed Your Word and teachings, but in my heart I knew right from wrong, and I did not always follow the right path, until the day Your Holy Spirit came and blessed me with Your light, and opened my eyes to a life and purpose in following Your Word and Your Way, through Jesus Christ’s example and teachings.

Lord, today I continue my journey on the path You destined for me to follow, a life filled with Your Spirit, Your light, You protected me through the hard times and blessed me with good times, my life journey has been enriched by Your undeniable presence, and allowed me to use it as a witness for You O Lord.

🕊️ Nevertheless I am continually with You;

You hold me by my right hand.

You will guide me with Your counsel,

And afterward receive me to glory.

Whom have I in heaven but You?

And there is none upon earth that I desire besides You.

My flesh and my heart fail;

But God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.

For indeed, those who are far from You shall perish;

You have destroyed all those who desert You for harlotry.

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 Your works. 🕊️

🕊️ The LORD is righteous in her midst,

He will do no unrighteousness.

Every morning He brings His justice to light;

He never fails,

*But the unjust knows no shame.

“I have cut off nations,

Their fortresses are devastated;

I have made their streets desolate,

With none passing by.

Their cities are destroyed;

There is no one, no inhabitant.

I said, ‘Surely you will fear Me,

You will receive instruction’ so that her dwelling would not be cut off,

Despite everything for which I punished her.

But they rose early and corrupted all their deeds.

~~~~~~~

A Faithful Remnant

“Therefore wait for Me,” says the LORD,

“Until the day I rise up for plunder;

My determination is to gather the nations to My assembly of kingdoms,

To pour on them My indignation, All My fierce anger;

All the earth shall be devoured

With the fire of My jealousy.

“For then I will restore to the peoples a pure language,

That they all may call on the name of the LORD, to serve Him with one accord. 🕊️

🕊️ Sonship Through the Spirit

Therefore, brethren, we are debtors—not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. 

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. 🕊️

Thank You!

Father, I am blessed today, to be protected by You, and knowing my loved ones are protected!

We have returned from our trip and had a safe and tiring journey. 

Just as it feels good to be home, it feels great to be at my kitchen table with all my tools in front of me, my prayer time, reading and journaling is just as I am acustomed.

I simply returned to my daily routine, my morning’s fresh and wonderful time spent with You in prayer!

Father, I pray, in my coming and going today, I may shine the light You placed within me, surrounding me, to act as a beacon for others to witness the Glory of God, working in the life of a man of sin, being restored to fullness of life and free of guilt and shame. 

Father may I wear the full armor You have provided, so I may meet every challenge today with Joy and a sense of Your presence there to guide my way and bless the work of my hands, I pray, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ To Live Is Christ

For I know that this will turn out for my deliverance through your prayer and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, according to my earnest expectation and hope that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death. 

For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. 

But if I live on in the flesh, this will mean fruit from my labor; yet what I shall choose I cannot tell. 

For I am hard-pressed between the two, having a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better. 

Nevertheless to remain in the flesh is more needful for you. 

And being confident of this, I know that I shall remain and continue with you all for your progress and joy of faith, that your rejoicing for me may be more abundant in Jesus Christ by my coming to you again. 🕊️

Philippians 1:19-26

I pray Lord, You Fill me with Your Spirit today, as I put on the Full armor of God, may I use it accordingly, blessing others who need the Loving kindness from another human being, a kind word, a brief smile, may my light be a blessing to all those I come upon today.

Father, I pray for All my children, which I now put before You, All my grandchildren and their little ones, Father, may they be safe today, may Your Spirit fill their minds with Your presence in their lives and may You guide them in the Way to become the children of the light.

Prepare my mind now Lord, for service and the leading of Your Spirit, may I shine in and through all I say and do, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ Plea for Purity

Finally then, brethren, we urge and exhort in the Lord Jesus that you should abound more and more, just as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God; for you know what commandments we gave you through the Lord Jesus.

For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you should abstain from sexual immorality; that each of you should know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor, not in passion of lust, like the Gentiles who do not know God; that no one should take advantage of and defraud his brother in this matter, because the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also forewarned you and testified. 

For God did not call us to uncleanness, but in holiness. 

Therefore he who rejects this does not reject man, but God, who has also given us His Holy Spirit. 🕊️

1 Thessalonians 4:1-8

Good morning Father!

Thank You for this day!

Thank You for my life!

Thank You for my sweet bride, Amy!

Thank You for my beautiful daughter, Selah!

All that I am and all I possess, they are blessings from You O Lord!

Thank You!

My Lord and my God, bless me this day, with Your Spirit, with Your full armor all about me, within me, that I might walk in the Way, and as Your child of the light, in accordance to Your Word, and through the blood of Jesus Christ, all my sin is washed away, I am a new creature in Christ, Redeemed, and Sanctified, for the work of the Lord. 

Lead me with Your Holy Spirit, O Lord, that I might be a vessel of God.

Bless All my children today Father, may they receive Your Spirit, Your Teacher, and accept the gifts You have for them, may they come to the knowledge of Your Word and walk in the Way, may they be blessed and be as Your children of the light. 

Prepare me for this day O Lord, keep us safe as we travel homeward, may our journey home be quick and may we be a blessing to others along the way, may Your light shine in us, in all we say and do, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ Then Jesus cried out and said, “He who believes in Me, believes not in Me but in Him who sent Me. And he who sees Me sees Him who sent Me. 

I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness. 

And if anyone hears My words and does not believe, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world. 

He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him—the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day. 

For I have not spoken on My own authority; but the Father who sent Me gave Me a command, what I should say and what I should speak. 

And I know that His command is everlasting life. 

Therefore, whatever I speak, just as the Father has told Me, so I speak.” 🕊️

🕊️ Marriage—Christ and the Church

Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. 

For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body. 

Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything.

Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, that He might sanctify and cleanse her 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. 

So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself. 

For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church. For we are members of His body, of His flesh and of His bones. 

“For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” 

This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Christ and the church. 

Nevertheless let each one of you in particular so love his own wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband. 🕊️

Good morning Father!

Thank You for this day!

Thank You for my life!

Thank You for my sweet bride, Amy!

Thank You for my beautiful daughter, Selah!

All that I am and all I possess, they are blessings from You O Lord!

Thank You!

Father, I pray Your Spirit help me this day, may I be filled with Your Spirit, may my understanding of Your “Great Mystery” be revealed, so that I might gain understanding more every day. 

May the Love I have for my sweet bride increase more every day, just as it has already done from the first day, may the Love I have for her be as my Love for myself, and then as our lives together as one flesh, one mind, one Faith. Thank You Lord for my ‘sweet bride’ and the life journey we have together.

Father i lift up All my children before You, All my grandchildren, and their little ones, may Your Holy Spirit keep them safe today, my they find healing and comfort in Your loving arms, may they sense Your Spirit within them, surrounding them, protecting them, and leading them to the light, in the Way, which leads only to You Father! 

Bless my day today, may I shine the light of Your Spirit within me, in and through all I say and do today, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ Walk in Love

Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. 

And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma.

But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints; neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks. 

For this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God. 

Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. Therefore do not be partakers with them.🕊️

Ephesians 5:1-7

Father I lift up All my children before you this evening, all my grandchildren, and their little ones, may You keep them safe as they rest and as they play, may they come to know and follow Your Way and become Your children of light, shinning in the darkness.

🕊️ Walk in Unity

I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called, with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love, endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is above all, & through all, & in you all.🕊️

Thank You Lord, for the safe travels and a wonderful reunion with Family. 

Thank You that we can be together creating new memories and shine our light together, in the world around us. 

I pray for a quick resolve for an engine light, which kept showing up in the dash as we drove.

🕊️ The Just Live by Faith

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by Faith.”🕊️

Thank You!

I am traveling with my family; Amy, Selah, and Bridget, heading for Amy’s sister, Connie’s home, where we will stay until Friday. We left home yesterday at 12:30 pm and arrived in Missoula, Montana at 7:00 pm. 

During our stay, since Connie’s home is only 20-30 minutes or so from Yellowstone National Park, we will visit the park one or more of those days. Family is the most important thing for us, aside from our Faith and worshiping in church every Sunday. While we visit, we may attend church with Connie, but not sure just yet.

I have brought some of my equipment to capture new images of Montana, and use some of them for my blog.

I will spend some of my time writing in my personal journal, and record our trip and moments shared here.

** Father God, thank You for a safe journey to our hotel in Missoula, and as we continue on this morning, heading to Island Park, Idaho.

I lift up All my children before you, all my grandchildren and their little ones, may Your Spirit keep them safe today and guide them in the Way, I pray we may all be as Your children of the light, and shine Your Love, in and through all we say and do today, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ Praise to God for His Awesome Works!

Make a joyful shout to God, all the earth!

Sing out the honor of His name; Make His praise glorious.

Say to God, “How awesome are Your works!

Through the greatness of Your power, your enemies shall submit themselves to You.

All the earth shall worship You and sing praises to You;

They shall sing praises to Your name.”

Selah

Come and see the works of God;

He is awesome in His doing toward the sons of men.

He turned the sea into dry land;

They went through the river on foot.

There we will rejoice in Him.

He rules by His power forever;

His eyes observe the nations;

Do not let the rebellious exalt themselves.

Selah

Oh, bless our God, you peoples!

And make the voice of His praise to be heard,

Who keeps our soul among the living,

And does not allow our feet to be moved.

For You, O God, have tested us;

You have refined us as silver is refined. 🕊️

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without law, and as many as have sinned in the law will be judged by the law (for not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified; for when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do the things in the law, these, although not having the law, are a law to themselves, who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and between themselves their thoughts accusing or else excusing them) in the day when God will judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel. 🕊️

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ I spread out my hands to You;

My soul longs for You like a thirsty land.

Selah

Answer me speedily, O LORD; My spirit fails!

Do not hide Your face from me,

Lest I be like those who go down into the pit.

Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning,

For in You do I trust;

Cause me to know the way in which I should walk,

For I lift up my soul to You.

Deliver me, O LORD, from my enemies; In You I take shelter.

Teach me to do Your will, For You are my God;

Your Spirit is good. 

Lead me in the land of uprightness.

Revive me, O LORD, for Your name’s sake!

For Your righteousness’ sake bring my soul out of trouble.

In Your mercy cut off my enemies, and destroy all those who afflict my soul;

For I am Your servant. 🕊️

Father, God, I lift up my arms and reach for You with my hands today, You revived my soul, my heart was heavy within my chest, the presence of evil and darkness was all around me. 

My throat was parched and my voice almost gone from me, there was no water to wash away the dust.

I reached out for my God to rescue me, “O Lord, You are my only resolve, You alone are my Salvation, my one and only everlasting merciful deliverer.”

You forgave me of my sin O Lord, You removed the weight of the guilt I felt every time I failed.

My Lord and my God, You filled me with the Holy Spirit, lifted me up, took me away from my place of torment, to a new state of being. 

Father, You planted my feet on fertile ground, into a plush, green garden valley, with beautiful wildflowers, beside a river flowing with the living water of Your Love, Grace, Mercy, and Peace.

Reading Your Word daily O Lord, sensing Your Spirit beside me, within me, surrounding me, comforting me in my struggles, they’re still there, but the weight of sin no longer tormenting me, my soul washed in the blood of my Savior, my Redeemer, Jesus, my Lord and Master, You come to fill me with the Good news of your forgiveness and a new path of walking by Faith.

Now I look ahead, never backward, every day walking with mercy and Grace, filled with the light of God’s presence, I have Hope in my heart and on my lips, speaking truth, following the Spirit’s lead.

Father, I lift up All my children before You today, I lift up all my grandchildren and their little ones, may You keep them safe today, may Your Holly Spirit, Your Teacher, fill them with Your Joy and light, blessing others around them, as Your children, walking by Faith and God’s Love.

Bless the Lord, O my soul, and All that is within me, Praise His Holy name, Jesus!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ The faithful man has perished from the earth, and there is no one upright among men.

They all lie in wait for blood; every man hunts his brother with a net.

That they may successfully do evil with both hands—

The prince asks for gifts,

The judge seeks a bribe,

The great man utters his evil desire; so they scheme together.

The best of them is like a brier;

The most upright is sharper than a thorn hedge;

The day of your watchman and your punishment comes;

Now shall be their perplexity.

~~~

Do not trust in a friend;

Do not put your confidence in a companion;

Guard the doors of your mouth from her who lies in your bosom.

For son dishonors father,

Daughter rises against her mother,

Daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law;

A man’s enemies are the men of his own household.

*** Therefore I will look to the LORD ***

I will wait for the God of my salvation;

My God will hear me.

Israel’s Confession and Comfort

Do not rejoice over me, my enemy;

When I fall, I will arise;

When I sit in darkness,

The LORD will be a light to me.

I will bear the indignation of the LORD,

Because I have sinned against Him,

Until He pleads my case and executes justice for me.

He will bring me forth to the light;

I will see His righteousness. 🕊️

Bless me with Your Holy Spirit, that I may I be a blessing to others today, a friend, a comfort, an ear to listen, seeking opportunities however I may be of assistance. 

I Pray Father, You protect All my children today, may Your Holy Spirit, Your Teacher, be present in their lives and may they sense Your presence with them, within them. 

I lift up All my grandchildren Father, and their little ones, may they continue to learn and grow, into the people You intended them to be, may they be Your light in the darkness, may they bring glory to Your Holy name, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ LORD, my heart is not haughty,

Nor my eyes lofty.

Neither do I concern myself with great matters,

Nor with things too profound for me.

Surely I have calmed and quieted my soul,

Like a weaned child with his mother;

Like a weaned child is my soul within me. 🕊️

Psalms 131:1-2

🕊️ God’s Wrath on Unrighteousness

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. 

For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 

Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.

Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. 

For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. 

Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.

And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them. 🕊️

🕊️ “I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and have revealed them to babes. 

Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight. 

All things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father. 

Nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him. Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 

Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” 🕊️

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ— from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love. 🕊️

Ephesians 4:11-16

Today O Lord, I meditate on the gift You created, the gift of my son Judah.

I call out his name before You Lord, “Judah”, I thank You for the time I had with him, holding his little body at birth, delivering him into this world, from his mother’s womb, raising him and loving him, teaching him Your Word and Your ways, teaching him my trade and crafts, then releasing him into the world to learn more and grow. 

The enemy came upon him and tormented him and he could not make his way in life, so he cast himself off a bridge, to end the torment. Father forgive my son Judah, for his actions and grant him Your Peace, may he live and continue in Your kingdom, a spirit You created and blessed me with as my own flesh, receive him and grant him the healing and access to Your everlasting presence, worshipping Your Holy name, Yashua  יהושוע

I lift up before You Father, All my children, may Your Holy Spirit, Your Teacher, Visit upon them in their lives today, in their coming and in their going, may Your Spirit reveal to them Your presence in their lives and and the beauty out in the world, Your creation. May they be as a light and lead many to You o Lord, bless the work of their hands and the Words you plant deep in their hearts, may it guide them and lead them this day.

Deliver me O Lord, from the injustice and loss of my son Judah, loss to the enemy who has already taken one son from me. Free me from the guilt of not doing more for Judah, while he was yet with me in this life, more visits with him, more calls and meetups on the road, more prayers for his deliverance, forgive me Lord, in Jesus’ name.

Bless my family today Lord, on the outing with friends and family, may Your angels go ahead of them and prepare the way, a safe path and secure journey, may Your Spirit be with each one, a blessing of light amongst the darkness around them, may they be as Your children of the light, and bring glory to Your Holy name, Yashua  יהושוע

May I walk this morning in Your Grace, Mercy, and Peace, meditating on the life You give and the experience of growing and learning of Your creation, and all the Blessings within, may I be as a light in the darkness, as I praise Your Holy name, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ Let my cry come before You, O LORD;

Give me understanding according to Your word.

Let my supplication come before You;

Deliver me according to Your word.

My lips shall utter praise,

For You teach me Your statutes.

My tongue shall speak of Your word,

For all Your commandments are righteousness.

Let Your hand become my help,

For I have chosen Your precepts.

I long for Your salvation, O LORD,

And Your law is my delight.

Let my soul live, and it shall praise You;

And let Your judgments help me.

I have gone astray like a lost sheep;

Seek Your servant,

For I do not forget Your commandments. 🕊️

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ Glorify God Together

Therefore receive one another, just as Christ also received us, to the glory of God. 

Now I say that Jesus Christ has become a servant to the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made to the fathers, and that the Gentiles might glorify God for His mercy, as it is written:

“For this reason I will confess to You among the Gentiles, and sing to Your name.”

And again he says: “Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His people!”

And again: “Praise the LORD, all you Gentiles! Laud Him, all you peoples!”

And again, Isaiah says: “There shall be a root of Jesse;

And He who shall rise to reign over the Gentiles, In Him the Gentiles shall hope.”

Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. 🕊️

🕊️ Now this is the word which by the gospel was preached to you.

Therefore, laying aside all malice, all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and all evil speaking, as newborn babes, desire the pure milk of the word, that you may grow thereby, if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious.

The Chosen Stone and His Chosen People, coming to Him as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God and precious, you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 

Therefore it is also contained in the Scripture,

“Behold, I lay in Zion a chief cornerstone, elect, precious, and he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame.”

Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who are disobedient,

“The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone,” and “A stone of stumbling and a rock of offense.”

They stumble, being disobedient to the word, to which they also were appointed.

But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy. 🕊️

Praise God, Hallelujah!
