🕊️ “And the patriarchs, becoming envious, sold Joseph into Egypt. 

But God was with him and delivered him out of all his troubles, and gave him favor and wisdom in the presence of Pharaoh, king of Egypt; and he made him governor over Egypt and all his house. 🕊️

Acts 7:9-10

And whoever will not receive you nor hear your words, when you depart from that house or city, shake off the dust from your feet.

Matthew 10:14

Life’s lessons:

I read a story this morning, about a blessing and appreciation, which can be both about the flesh and the spirit, and how one affects the other.

A father said to his son, “You graduated with honors. Here is a Volkswagen Beetle that I bought many years ago… It is over 50 years old, but before I give it to you, take it to a dealership downtown and ask how much they are offering you.”

The son went to the dealership, came back to his father and said, “They offered me $10,000 because it looks very used.” The father said, “Take it to a pawn shop.”

The son went to the pawn shop, came back and said, “They only offered me $1,000 because they say it is too old.”

Finally, the father asked his son to take the car to a classic car club and show it there. The son took the car to the club, came back and said, “Some people at the club offered me $100,000! because it is a very rare car and sought after among the members.”

The father said to his son, “I wanted you to understand that the right place appreciates you in the right way. If they don’t value you, don’t be angry, it just means you’re in the wrong place. Those who know your value are the ones who truly appreciate you. Never stay in a place where they don’t recognize your value!”

🕊️ Praise for the LORD’s Mercies

Bless the LORD, O my soul;

And all that is within me, bless His holy name!

Bless the LORD, O my soul,

And forget not all His benefits:

Who forgives all your iniquities,

Who heals all your diseases,

Who redeems your life from destruction,

Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies,

Who satisfies your mouth with good things,

So that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

The LORD executes righteousness

And justice for all who are oppressed.

He made known His ways to Moses,

His acts to the children of Israel.

The LORD is merciful and gracious,

Slow to anger, and abounding in mercy.

He will not always strive with us,

Nor will He keep His anger forever.

He has not dealt with us according to our sins,

Nor punished us according to our iniquities.

For as the heavens are high above the earth,

So great is His mercy toward those who fear Him;

As far as the east is from the west,

So far has He removed our transgressions from us.

As a father pities his children,

So the LORD pities those who fear Him.

For He knows our frame;

He remembers that we are dust.

As for man, his days are like grass;

As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.

For the wind passes over it, and it is gone,

And its place remembers it no more.

But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting

On those who fear Him,

And His righteousness to children’s children,

To such as keep His covenant,

And to those who remember His commandments to do them. 🕊️

Psalms 103:1-18

🕊️ The Lesson of the Withered Fig Tree

And when the disciples saw it, they marveled, saying, “How did the fig tree wither away so soon?”

So Jesus answered and said to them, “Assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but also if you say to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ it will be done. 

And whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.” 🕊️

Matthew 21:20-22

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It is not good to eat much honey;

So to seek one’s own glory is not glory.

Whoever has no rule over his own spirit

Is like a city broken down, without walls.

(Proverbs 25:27-28)

Starving the Ego

Oh Lord, as I experience success in different ways, I pray I will always give You the glory. 

Keep my head level. Help me not to become bloated with pride and false importance. 

It is so easy to feed on the sweetness of compliments rather than on the hard kernels of Your truth.

God, build up my self-control so I am protected from the desire to stuff my ego with empty words. 

I pray that You see me as a person of substance and integrity. 

Let my honor come from my association with Jesus, the King of Kings!

Father, being filled with Your Holy Spirit, and putting on the “Full Armor of God”, Lord, I still reach out to You for All things, as Your child of the light, I am constantly checking myself, looking to be preventative, rather than reactionary, I know my character flaws and my limits, I also know when I exceed them or when I am tempted to act in my flesh, rather than allow Your Spirit within me to calm my own spirit.

This war of flesh and spirit wages on, but so does my morning prayers, reaching to the “God of the impossible”, my Lord and my Shepherd, daily consulting You O Lord, to help me to fight the desires of my flesh and walk in the spirit, my spirit, which bears witness to Your Spirit strengthening me for my day, so thus I pray, may I walk in my spiritual man and not by my fleshly man. 

Father I lift up All my loved ones, All my children, All my grandchildren, and their little ones, may they each sense Your presence in their lives, may they learn to hear and obey the leading of Your Holy Spirit, guiding them in making good choices, and living as Your children of the light.

Bless me O Lord, may I complete all the tasks before me today, and may I shine in and through all I say and do, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ He who disdains instruction despises his own soul,

But he who heeds rebuke gets understanding.

The fear of the LORD is the instruction of wisdom,

And before honor is humility. 🕊️

🕊️ You have dealt well with Your servant,

O LORD, according to Your word.

Teach me good judgment and knowledge,

For I believe Your commandments.

Before I was afflicted I went astray,

But now I keep Your word.

You are good, and do good;

Teach me Your statutes.

The proud have forged a lie against me,

But I will keep Your precepts with my whole heart.

Their heart is as fat as grease,

But I delight in Your law.

It is good for me that I have been afflicted,

That I may learn Your statutes.

The law of Your mouth is better to me

Than thousands of coins of gold and silver.

Your hands have made me and fashioned me;

Give me understanding, that I may learn Your commandments.

Those who fear You will be glad when they see me,

Because I have hoped in Your word.

I know, O LORD, that Your judgments are right,

And that in faithfulness You have afflicted me.

Let, I pray, Your merciful kindness be for my comfort,

According to Your word to Your servant.

Let Your tender mercies come to me, that I may live;

For Your law is my delight.

Let the proud be ashamed,

For they treated me wrongfully with falsehood;

But I will meditate on Your precepts.

Let those who fear You turn to me,

Those who know Your testimonies.

Let my heart be blameless regarding Your statutes,

That I may not be ashamed. 🕊️

Father, I praise You for allowing me to see good days and watch my family grow.

I lift them All up before You now, keep them safe Lord.

Having lost our first born, Tommy, at birth, after waiting many months to greet him, and the loss of my son, Judah at 32, Father I can only imagine the pain and sorrow of losing Jesus, when he died, and I understand the sacrifice, in creating a better way for ALL man to be free and receive Salvation, never to fear of death or dying, but living forever with You O Lord, I get it Father, Thank You!

*Today is another of my sons birthday Lord, Malachi, coming to me at 6 years of age, when I was out burning trash on our acreage, he asked me to pray for God to forgive him of his sins and receive Salvation and have everlasting life. I lift him up before You then, together, as two, standing before You, and I ask it again today Jesus, may he be healed from within and come to remembrance of the words we shared that day, so long ago, may he walk with You O Lord, and may he follow the Way, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Lord I lift up All my children this day, may Your Spirit bless each of them and keep them safe, I lift up All my grandchildren Father, All my great grandchildren, may they be blessed today and receive Your Spirit, Your Joy, may they sense Your Spirit working within them and guiding their way, may they find You in all they see and experience, may they come to the light as Your children and bring glory to Your Holy name, Jesus.

I pray Father, I might walk this day in remembrance of Your Love shown to me, so many years ago, You freed me from my past and gave me a New path to follow, one filled with Joy and Peace.

I ask O Lord, may I continue to shine my light, in and through all I say and do, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ “Moreover if your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault between you and him alone. 

If he hears you, you have gained your brother. 

But if he will not hear, take with you one or two more, that by the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.’ 

And if he refuses to hear them, tell it to the church. 

But if he refuses even to hear the church, let him be to you like a heathen and a tax collector.

“Assuredly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.

“Again I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven. 

For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.” 🕊️

Matthew 18:15-20

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

🕊️ Love Your Neighbor

Owe no one anything except to love one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law. 

For the commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not bear false witness,” “You shall not covet,” and if there is any other commandment, are all summed up in this saying, namely, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 

Love does no harm to a neighbor; therefore Love is the fulfillment of the law. 🕊️

Matthew 13:8-10

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ All your children shall be taught by the LORD,

And great shall be the peace of your children.

In righteousness you shall be established;

You shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear;

And from terror, for it shall not come near you.

Indeed they shall surely assemble, but not because of Me.

Whoever assembles against you shall fall for your sake.

“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. Hallelujah! 🕊️

Isaiah 54:13-17

~~~~~~~

🕊️ Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying, “Son of man, speak to the children of your people, and say to them: When I bring the sword upon a land, and the people of the land take a man from their territory and make him their watchman, when he sees the sword coming upon the land, if he blows the trumpet and warns the people, then whoever hears the sound of the trumpet and does not take warning, if the sword comes and takes him away, his blood shall be on his own head. He heard the sound of the trumpet, but did not take warning; his blood shall be upon himself. But he who takes warning will save his life. But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet, and the people are not warned, and the sword comes and takes any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood I will require at the watchman’s hand.’

“So you, son of man: I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel; therefore you shall hear a word from My mouth and warn them for Me. When I say to the wicked, ‘O wicked man, you shall surely die!’ and you do not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood I will require at your hand. Nevertheless if you warn the wicked to turn from his way, and he does not turn from his way, he shall die in his iniquity; but you have delivered your soul. 🕊️

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? 

And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? 

And how shall they hear without a preacher? 

And how shall they preach unless they are sent? 

As it is written:

“How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace,

Who bring glad tidings of good things!”

But they have not all obeyed the gospel. 

For Isaiah says, “LORD, who has believed our report?” 

So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

But I say, have they not heard? Yes indeed:

“Their sound has gone out to all the earth,

And their words to the ends of the world.” 🕊️ 

Romans 10:14-18

🕊️ Deal bountifully with Your servant,

That I may live and keep Your word.

Open my eyes, that I may see

Wondrous things from Your law.

I am a stranger in the earth;

Do not hide Your commandments from me.

My soul breaks with longing

For Your judgments at all times.

You rebuke the proud—the cursed,

Who stray from Your commandments.

Remove from me reproach and contempt,

For I have kept Your testimonies.

Princes also sit and speak against me,

But Your servant meditates on Your statutes.

Your testimonies also are my delight

And my counselors.

My soul clings to the dust;

Revive me according to Your word.

I have declared my ways, and You answered me;

Teach me Your statutes.

Make me understand the way of Your precepts;

So shall I meditate on Your wonderful works.

My soul melts from heaviness;

Strengthen me according to Your word.

Remove from me the way of lying,

And grant me Your law graciously.

I have chosen the way of truth;

Your judgments I have laid before me.

I cling to Your testimonies;

O LORD, do not put me to shame!

I will run the course of Your commandments,

For You shall enlarge my heart.

Teach me, O LORD, the way of Your statutes,

And I shall keep it to the end.

Give me understanding, and I shall keep Your law;

Indeed, I shall observe it with my whole heart.

Make me walk in the path of Your commandments,

For I delight in it.

Incline my heart to Your testimonies,

And not to covetousness.

Turn away my eyes from looking at worthless things,

And revive me in Your way.

Establish Your word to Your servant,

Who is devoted to fearing You.

Turn away my reproach which I dread,

For Your judgments are good.

Behold, I long for Your precepts;

Revive me in Your righteousness.

Let Your mercies come also to me, O LORD—

Your salvation according to Your word. 🕊️

And whose hope is the LORD.

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.

“The heart is deceitful above all things,

And desperately wicked;

Who can know it?

I, the LORD, search the heart,

I test the mind,

Even to give every man according to his ways,

According to the fruit of his doings. 🕊️

Jeremiah 17:7-10

🕊️ A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things.

For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.” 🕊️

Psalms 17:5-8

🕊️ So when He had washed their feet, taken His garments, and sat down again, He said to them, “Do you know what I have done to you? You call Me Teacher and Lord, and you say well, for so I am. If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet. For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you. Most assuredly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master; nor is he who is sent greater than he who sent him. If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them. 🕊️

🕊️ A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.” 🕊️

🕊️ From that time Jesus began to show to His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised the third day.

Then Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, saying, “Far be it from You, Lord; this shall not happen to You!”

But He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are an offense to Me, for you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men.”

Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. 

For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. 

For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? 

Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul? 

For the Son of Man will come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and then He will reward each according to his works. 

Assuredly, I say to you, there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.” 🕊️

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!

Heavenly Father, I believe! 🕊️

I believe on the last day, many amazing things will come to pass, one in which the dead in Christ Jesus, Your Son, will rise to meet with You Lord, up in the heavens, may I walk until then, filled with Your Holy Spirit, Your Teacher, guiding my way, the path I take, filled with Your light O Lord, and protected by Your Angels.

May I put on Your full armor O Lord, may I walk in the light, as Your child of the light. 

May the witness of my Faith light the path set before me, my loved ones, and all those around me who walked in darkness, may their paths be filled with Your light O Lord, as they come into the Faith, shared with the brethren, the redemption of all our souls. 

Father, I lift up All my children before You this day, All my grandchildren and their little ones, may they each encounter Your Holy Spirit, and sense Your presence, working in their lives and keeping them safe, may they increase in Faith daily. 

Lord, may I complete all the work You have for me today, the care and witness I am to share with others, may I shine with the light You placed within me, in and through all I say and do, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go. 

This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. 

For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. 

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.” 🕊️

Father, my days are filled with various challenges but never more than I can handle.

I pray may Your Spirit fill me this day, may I continue to meet or exceed the challenges I face, giving You the glory for All things, good or bad, its the journey and walking by Faith which makes it all exciting, You surprise me every day with blessings and make my life what it is today.

Lord, may my sweet bride, Amy and I be blessed today, celebrating 28 years together, and sharing that joy with others, may our lives be a witness for You Jesus, may we continue on our journey together, in Love, filled with Your Grace, Mercy, and Peace, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

Stand Fast

But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God from the beginning chose you for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth, to which He called you by our gospel, for the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, brethren, stand fast and hold the traditions which you were taught, whether by word or our epistle.

Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and our God and Father, who has loved us and given us everlasting consolation and good hope by grace, comfort your hearts and establish you in every good word and work. 🕊️

Guide my steps today Father, may I walk in the light as Your child, and may I shine that light in the darkness around me, may I not yield to the temptations of the enemy, the evil one, rather stand fast in my Faith and following Your Word and Your Way, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

O Lord, I lift up All my children before You, All my grandchildren, and their little ones, may they be safe today O Lord, and may Your Holy Spirit quicken to their memory, Your Word, which You have placed deep within their mind and spirit, from birth, may You bless each of them today O Lord, in and through all they say and do, 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.

Walk in Light

For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), finding out what is acceptable to the Lord. And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them. For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret. But all things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light. Therefore He says:

“Awake, you who sleep,

Arise from the dead,

And Christ will give you light.” 🕊️

O Lord, I lift up All my children before You, all my grandchildren and their little ones, may Your Spirit lead them and guide their way to the light and following Your Way this day, may they receive healing and comfort, direction and strength for their journey today, please keep them all safe, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

🕊️ And when Jesus was in Bethany at the house of Simon the leper, a woman came to Him having an alabaster flask of very costly fragrant oil, and she poured it on His head as He sat at the table. 

But when His disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying, “Why this waste? 

For this fragrant oil might have been sold for much and given to the poor.”

But when Jesus was aware of it, He said to them, “Why do you trouble the woman? 

For she has done a good work for Me. 

For you have the poor with you always, but Me you do not have always. 

For in pouring this fragrant oil on My body, she did it for My burial. 

Assuredly, I say to you, wherever this gospel is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be told as a memorial to her.” 🕊️

O Lord, I receive Your Spirit today, overflowing in my heart and mind, may I share every exciting moment with those who are living and struggling, full of fear, walking aimlessly in the dark, may Your Spirit minister to their needs, provide their needs for their healing and provide a path to the light, may I live and walk, having put on the full armor of God, full of strength to take on every challenge and without fear, may my life be a blessing to others today, in and through all I say and do, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! 

How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out!

“For who has known the mind of the LORD?

Or who has become His counselor?”

“Or who has first given to Him and it shall be repaid to him?”

For of Him and through Him and to Him are all things, to whom be glory forever, Amen! 🕊️

🕊️ I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. 

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. 🕊️

🕊️ Help, LORD, for the godly man ceases!

For the faithful disappear from among the sons of men.

They speak idly everyone with his neighbor;

With flattering lips and a double heart they speak.

May the LORD cut off all flattering lips,

And the tongue that speaks proud things,

Who have said, “With our tongue we will prevail;

Our lips are our own; Who is lord over us?”

“For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy,

Now I will arise,” says the LORD;

“I will set him in the safety for which he yearns.”

The words of the LORD are pure words,

Like silver tried in a furnace of earth,

Purified seven times. 

You shall keep them, O LORD, 

You shall preserve them from this generation forever.

The wicked prowl on every side,

When vileness is exalted among the sons of men. 🕊️

🕊️ “Listen to Me, you who follow after righteousness,

You who seek the LORD:

Look to the rock from which you were hewn,

And to the hole of the pit from which you were dug.

Look to Abraham your father, and to Sarah who bore you;

For I called him alone, and blessed him and increased him.”

For the LORD will comfort Zion, He will comfort all her waste places;

He will make her wilderness like Eden,

And her desert like the garden of the LORD;

Joy and gladness will be found in it, thanksgiving and the voice of melody.

“Listen to Me, My people; and give ear to Me, O My nation:

For law will proceed from Me, and I will make My justice rest as a light of the peoples.

My righteousness is near,

My salvation has gone forth,

And My arms will judge the peoples;

The coastlands will wait upon Me,

And on My arm they will trust.

Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look on the earth beneath.

For the heavens will vanish away like smoke, the earth will grow old like a garment,

And those who dwell in it will die in like manner;

But My salvation will be forever,

And My righteousness will not be abolished. 🕊️

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference; for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed, to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. 🕊️

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, thank you for a mind which can rightly divide Truth, and reason between what I see and what I believe, thank you for my “Faith”.

When I see two chairs next to each other, one broken and the other whole, my Faith tells me the good chair, although old, is still standing and I can have Faith will hold my weight, and if not, it will be just like the broken one on the floor. 

I look upon my life the same way;

Either way, I have Faith; that the one good looking one will stand and will hold my weight, and if not and I am sitting on the floor amongst the broken chairs, I believe, and have Faith I can rebuild or fix one of the damaged and broken chairs, and have a good sturdy place to sit.

Father, increase my Faith today, knowing all that is before me is good, and as I take each step, I am trusting You are there beside me, protecting me from harm.

I am believing if or when I fall, Your Holy Spirit will pick me up and heal me and fix me, but no matter the result, I believe, even if I am to remain a broken vessel, I have purpose, I have Faith, You will still be there beside me, sustaining me. 

Help me O Lord, to trust You and Believe on the name of Jesus Christ, and regardless if the body and mind within me is good or broken, I have purpose before a Loving God, You accept me no matter what state I am in, You Love me and will heal my brokenness and change my mortal body into a wonderful heavenly body, when my time in this life is over.

Bless me this day O Lord, may I shine my light, which You put inside me, Your Holy Spirit, may I light up the darkness around me so I can find my way, and lead others who wander in the darkness around, a path to follow.

Forgive me Lord, when my light does not shine and does not lead others to the path of Faith, restore me to my path and awaken in me the Faith I need to get back on track and take those steps of Faith, trusting You in all things.

I lift up All my children before You Father, All my grandchildren, and their little ones, may they be blessed this day by Your Holy Spirit of promise, to fill their hearts and minds with Your Word and lead them on the Way, the path to the light, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ I will praise You with my whole heart;

Before the gods I will sing praises to You.

I will worship toward Your holy temple, and praise Your name.

For Your lovingkindness and Your truth;

For You have magnified Your word above all Your name.

In the day when I cried out, You answered me,

And made me bold with strength in my soul.

All the kings of the earth shall praise You, O LORD,

When they hear the words of Your mouth.

Yes, they shall sing of the ways of the LORD,

For great is the glory of the LORD.

Though the LORD is on high, yet He regards the lowly;

But the proud He knows from afar.

Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me;

You will stretch out Your hand against the wrath of my enemies,

And Your right hand will save me.

The LORD will perfect that which concerns me;

Your mercy, O LORD, endures forever;

Do not forsake the works of Your hands. 🕊️

Psalms 138:1-8

🕊️ Now therefore, it is already an utter failure for you that you go to law against one another. 

Why do you not rather accept wrong? 

Why do you not rather let yourselves be cheated? 

No, you yourselves do wrong and cheat, and you do these things to your brethren! 

Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? 

Do not be deceived!!!

Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. 

And such were some of you. 

But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God. 🕊️

Bless me O Lord, this day, may You, in Your Good pleasure, fill my mind, my heart, and my soul, with the Revelation of Your presence in my life, and the work You have for me to perform today.

Father, I lift up All my children before You this morning, All my grandchildren, and their little ones, may they sense Your Holy Spirit, standing at the door of their heart today, may they open their hearts and receive the many blessings you would reveal for them to use and share with others, may Your Teacher, guide their way in following You and along the journey of Faith and Believing, may their light, which only You can give, shine brightly in their lives, leading others to the light and to You Father, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

🕊️ “No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a secret place or under a basket, but on a lampstand, that those who come in may see the light. 

The lamp of the body is the eye. 

Therefore, when your eye is good, your whole body also is full of light. 

But when your eye is bad, your body also is full of darkness. 

Therefore take heed that the light which is in you is not darkness. 

If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, the whole body will be full of light, as when the bright shining of a lamp gives you light.” 🕊️

~~~

🕊️ “Also I say to you, whoever confesses Me before men, him the Son of Man also will confess before the angels of God. 

But he who denies Me before men will be denied before the angels of God.

“And anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but to him who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven. 🕊️

🕊️ This morning I read these words in a bible study booklet,

“We must make our spiritual journey by Faith, and thanks be to God, for giving us that Faith! The nature of Faith leaves much unseen, but through the Holy Spirit’s power, we can trust that God loves us, has a plan for our lives, and each day forms us a little more into the image of Christ. May you believe that God is doing these things for you today.”

~~~

🕊️ “For I know their works and their thoughts. 

It shall be that I will gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come and see My glory. 

I will set a sign among them; and those among them who escape I will send to the nations: to Tarshish and Pul and Lud, who draw the bow, and Tubal and Javan, to the coastlands afar off who have not heard My fame nor seen My glory. 

And they shall declare My glory among the Gentiles. 

Then they shall bring all your brethren for an offering to the LORD out of all nations, on horses and in chariots and in litters, on mules and on camels, to My holy mountain Jerusalem,” says the LORD, “as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of the LORD. 

And I will also take some of them for priests and Levites,” says the LORD.

“For as the new heavens and the new earth which I will make shall remain before Me,” says the LORD,

“So shall your descendants and your name remain.

And it shall come to pass that from one New Moon to another,

And from one Sabbath to another,

All flesh shall come to worship before Me,” says the LORD.

“And they shall go forth and look upon the corpses of the men who have transgressed against Me.

For their worm does not die, and their fire is not quenched.

They shall be an abhorrence to all flesh.” 🕊️

O Lord, my Rock, my Salvation, I lift up All my children before You, All my grandchildren, and my great grandchildren, may they each receive a measure of Faith today, may they sense Your presence in their lives, may Your Holy Spirit, Your Teacher, guide their way today and keep them safe, and may they learn to become the children of the light You are calling them to be, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Serve God with Spiritual Gifts

For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith. For as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function, so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another. Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, let us prophesy in proportion to our faith; or ministry, let us use it in our ministering; he who teaches, in teaching; he who exhorts, in exhortation; he who gives, with liberality; he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.

Behave Like a Christian

Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good. Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another; not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer; distributing to the needs of the saints, given to hospitality.

Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep. Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion.

Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good things in the sight of all men. If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men. 🕊️

🕊️ “Therefore you shall lay up these words of mine in your heart and in your soul, and bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 

You shall teach them to your children, speaking of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up. 

And you shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates, that your days and the days of your children may be multiplied in the land of which the LORD swore to your fathers to give them, like the days of the heavens above the earth.

🕊️ God be merciful to us and bless us,

And cause His face to shine upon us,

~ Selah

That Your way may be known on earth,

Your salvation among all nations.

Let the peoples praise You, O God;

Let all the peoples praise You.

Oh, let the nations be glad and sing for joy!

For You shall judge the people righteously,

And govern the nations on earth.

~ Selah

Let the peoples praise You, O God;

Let all the peoples praise You.

Then the earth shall yield her increase;

God, our own God, shall bless us.

God shall bless us, and all the ends of the earth shall fear Him. 🕊️

🕊️ The Song of Mary

And Mary said:

“My soul magnifies the Lord,

And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior.

For He has regarded the lowly state of His maidservant;

For behold, henceforth all generations will call me blessed.

For He who is mighty has done great things for me,

And holy is His name.

And His mercy is on those who fear Him

From generation to generation.

He has shown strength with His arm;

He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

He has put down the mighty from their thrones,

And exalted the lowly.

He has filled the hungry with good things,

And the rich He has sent away empty.

He has helped His servant Israel,

In remembrance of His mercy,

As He spoke to our fathers,

To Abraham and to his seed forever.” 🕊️

Luke 1:46-55

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

🕊️ Instead of your shame you shall have double honor,

And instead of confusion they shall rejoice in their portion.

Therefore in their land they shall possess double;

Everlasting joy shall be theirs.

“For I, the LORD, love justice;

I hate robbery for burnt offering;

I will direct their work in truth,

And will make with them an everlasting covenant.

Their descendants shall be known among the Gentiles,

And their offspring among the people.

All who see them shall acknowledge them,

That they are the posterity whom the LORD has blessed.”

I will greatly rejoice in the LORD,

My soul shall be joyful in my God;

For He has clothed me with the garments of salvation,

He has covered me with the robe of righteousness,

As a bridegroom decks himself with ornaments,

And as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

For as the earth brings forth its bud,

As the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring forth,

So the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations. 🕊️

Isaiah 61:7-11

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!

What a blessing it is to serve the Living God, our Savior, and Redeemer, our Shepherd.

Father God, may You fill me with Your Holy Spirit today, that I might serve You with all that in in my heart to give, to serve others as You have instructed me to serve, may I do as Your Word, Your Spirit, directs me to do.

Lead me Jesus, my Lord, may Your presence be with me, within me, may I shine bright, as Your Spirit filled child, may my Faith be great and my actions louder than words.

Bless All my children today Father, may they be safe today, may Your Holy Spirit, Your Teacher, prepare every heart, mind, and spirit, just how to serve and may they shine bright, with Your light and presence, may each child, each grandchild, each great grandchild, follow this calling to serve, for those who serve others today and those who follow them in this life, a legacy of Love and service, founded in the Grace and Forgiveness of one, who has died to his sin and the old man’s self, to walk into the light of the presence of God, receiving a calling of service forever, repeating in every generation to follow, may this be my mission and my task, to bring glory to Your Holy Name, Yahweh! 

I ask this all, in the name above all names, Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ Oh, that You would rend the heavens!

That You would come down!

That the mountains might shake at Your presence—

As fire burns brushwood,

As fire causes water to boil—

To make Your name known to Your adversaries,

That the nations may tremble at Your presence!

When You did awesome things for which we did not look,

You came down,

The mountains shook at Your presence.

For since the beginning of the world

Men have not heard nor perceived by the ear,

Nor has the eye seen any God besides You,

Who acts for the one who waits for Him.

You meet him who rejoices and does righteousness,

Who remembers You in Your ways.

You are indeed angry, for we have sinned—

In these ways we continue;

And we need to be saved.

But we are all like an unclean thing,

And all our righteousnesses are like filthy rags;

We all fade as a leaf,

And our iniquities, like the wind,

Have taken us away.

And there is no one who calls on Your name,

Who stirs himself up to take hold of You;

For You have hidden Your face from us,

And have consumed us because of our iniquities.

But now, O LORD,

You are our Father;

We are the clay, and You our potter;

And all we are the work of Your hand.

Do not be furious, O LORD,

Nor remember iniquity forever;

Indeed, please look—we all are Your people! 🕊️

Isaiah 64:1-9

🕊️ “Assemble yourselves and come; Draw near together,

You who have escaped from the nations.

They have no knowledge, Who carry the wood of their carved image,

And pray to a god that cannot save.

Tell and bring forth your case;

Yes, let them take counsel together.

Who has declared this from ancient time?

Who has told it from that time?

Have not I, the LORD?

And there is no other God besides Me, A just God and a Savior;

There is none besides Me. 

“Look to Me, and be saved, all you ends of the earth! 

For I am God, and there is no other.

I have sworn by Myself; 

The word has gone out of My mouth in righteousness,

And shall not return,

That to Me every knee shall bow, Every tongue shall take an oath.

He shall say, ‘Surely in the LORD I have righteousness and strength.

To Him men shall come, And all shall be ashamed 

Who are incensed against Him.

In the LORD all the descendants of Israel shall be justified, and shall glory.’ ” 🕊️
