🕊️ 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

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 God, may I find Grace in Your presence today, considering the weakness in my body, however the strength in my mind and spirit is without measure. 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.” 🕊️

Thank You for keeping me and my Family safe on our journey yesterday, as we travelled through Yellowstone Park, Thank You for the wonderful creatures we saw, we all enjoyed watching Your Creation, Your beauty in the land and its diverse creatures.

Father, my heart and my spirit look for You again today, I seek You in every decision and every action, may I follow the leading of Your Holy Spirit, as I walk in the Way and according to Truth and Righteousness, may I not wander, may I continue on the path which leads to Life and Love, may my Faith not waver or yield to any other, bless me this day O Lord!

Lord, I lift up All my children before You, All my grandchildren and their little ones, may You keep them safe today, may they sense Your presence in their lives, may Your Spirit, Your Teacher, guide their learning and all that leads to You Lord, may they discover the majesty of all Your Creation and may they learn to follow the Way, in their coming and their going, may they be a blessing to all they come across today. 

Father, I pray today my journey again, begins with celebration of Your Creation and all the wonderful new and repeat places we go, may we celebrate them together and enjoy our time, and create new memories.

Bless us O Lord, keep us safe as we travel, may my light, Your light within me, shine bright, in and through all I / we say and do, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ 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. 🕊️

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.🕊️

🕊️ 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.  

Father, may Your Spirit guide our way and shine Your light in and through all we say and do today, may we bring glory to Your Holy name, Jesus!

🕊️ 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. 🕊️

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!

🕊️ 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. 🕊️

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

🕊️ The LORD is gracious and full of compassion, slow to anger and great in mercy.

The LORD is good to all, and His tender mercies are over all His works.

All Your works shall praise You, O LORD, and Your saints shall bless You.

They shall speak of the glory of Your kingdom, and talk of Your power, to make known to the sons of men His mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of His kingdom.

Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and Your dominion endures throughout all generations.

The LORD upholds all who fall, and raises up all who are bowed down. 🕊️

O Lord, may I shine the light You placed within me, today, out in the darkness around me, in all I say and do, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ The LORD is gracious and full of compassion,

Slow to anger and great in mercy.

The LORD is good to all,

And His tender mercies are over all His works.

All Your works shall praise You, O LORD,

And Your saints shall bless You.

They shall speak of the glory of Your kingdom,

And talk of Your power,

To make known to the sons of men His mighty acts,

And the glorious majesty of His kingdom.

Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,

And Your dominion endures throughout all generations.

The LORD upholds all who fall,

And raises up all who are bowed down.

The eyes of all look expectantly to You,

And You give them their food in due season.

You open Your hand

And satisfy the desire of every living thing.

The LORD is righteous in all His ways,

Gracious in all His works.

The LORD is near to all who call upon Him,

To all who call upon Him in truth.

He will fulfill the desire of those who fear Him;

He also will hear their cry and save them. 🕊️

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!

Father, God, show me how to share Your Love and Your blessings today, may it forever be on my heart, mind, and Spirit.

Thank You!

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. 🕊️

I lift up All my children before you Lord, may they be safe today, may they find You in their coming and their going, may their lives reflect Your Love, Mercy, Grace, and Peace. I pray Your Holy Spirit, Your Teacher, visit my children and open their minds to Your presence in their lives and use them to bring Your light into the darkness around them, may they bring glory to Your holy name, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

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. 🕊️

Father my joy is complete in serving You, aside from accomplishing my daily tasks in this world, there is nothing which supersedes this other than my returning to prayer and time spent with You. 

I look forward to the blessing of Your Spirit in every word, sentence, and paragraph I read.

I pray Father I might increase in knowledge and understanding more every day.

O Lord, I pray, You bless All my children this evening, as they rest, and I pray Your Spirit protect them, guide their dreams and lead them into a new and exciting journey, one of Love and Giving, may Your Spirit, Your Teacher, guide them in the Way so they may learn what it is to be children of the light.

Thank You O Lord, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ 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!

Although I do not deserve it, Father, You have lifted me up, removed my guilt and shame, You have shown me Mercy and Grace, and You have Forgiven my sins, and then You fed me Your Word and gave me a life worth living.

You provided me comfort and Peace through Your Holy Spirit, to make many changes in my life, which has built up my Faith, to what it is now. 

Thank You O Lord!

Bless my family and loved ones this day, may they come to know Your saving grace and receive Your Holy Spirit.

🕊️ The Enduring Word

Since you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit in sincere love of the brethren, love one another fervently with a pure heart, having been born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever, because

“All flesh is as grass,

And all the glory of man as the flower of the grass.

The grass withers,

And its flower falls away,

But the word of the LORD endures forever.” 🕊️

I Praise God for this day, for the many opportunities to live and serve the living God. 

Thank You Jesus Christ, my Lord, and the Savior of our souls, our Merciful Redeemer, who in Your Lovingkindness, forgives us where we have failed and You give us your Holy Spirit, Your Teacher, for us to learn Your Ways, and follow on a path of Faith and believing, a journey to the light as children of the light, whereby we, Your people, may enter Your everlasting kingdom, a place where Peace reigns and true Love and it’s foundation rules.

Father I pray, bless All my loved ones today, keep them safe and I pray Your Spirit guide their way.

I lift up All my children Lord, all my grandchildren and their little ones, may they remain safe and healthy, may they sense, hear and receive, the guidance of Your Spirit in their lives, may Your Spirit, Your Teacher, show them Grace, Mercy, and Peace, and how to walk the path of Faith, how to shine Your light in the darkness of this world around us.

I pray O Lord, my petitions before You are heard and answered, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me.

Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

Therefore let us, as many as are mature, have this mind; and if in anything you think otherwise, God will reveal even this to you. Nevertheless, to the degree that we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us be of the same mind. 🕊️

Fill me with Your Spirit O Lord, may I walk today in the newness of Your Grace, Your Forgiveness, remembering how You are my only Salvation, my Master, Teacher, and Friend.

🕊️ So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase. Now he who plants and he who waters are one, and each one will receive his own reward according to his own labor.

For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, you are God’s building. According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it. For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? If anyone defiles the temple of God, God will destroy him. For the temple of God is holy, which temple you are. 🕊️

🕊️ ‘And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God,

That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh;

Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,

Your young men shall see visions,

Your old men shall dream dreams.

And on My menservants and on My maidservants

I will pour out My Spirit in those days;

And they shall prophesy.

I will show wonders in heaven above

And signs in the earth beneath:

Blood and fire and vapor of smoke.

The sun shall be turned into darkness,

And the moon into blood,

Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the LORD.

And it shall come to pass

That whoever calls on the name of the LORD

Shall be saved.’ 🕊️

🕊️ Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men.

And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. 

Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.🕊️

The perfect law of the Lord

🕊️ The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul;

The testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple;

The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart;

The commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes;

The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever;

The judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.

More to be desired are they than gold,

Yea, than much fine gold;

Sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.

Moreover by them Your servant is warned,

And in keeping them there is great reward.

Who can understand his errors?

Cleanse me from secret faults.

Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins;

Let them not have dominion over me.

Then I shall be blameless,

And I shall be innocent of great transgression.

Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart

Be acceptable in Your sight,

O LORD, my strength and my Redeemer. 🕊️

Forgive me where I fall short O Lord, and help me to stay focused today, on the tasks before me and as a witness of Your Grace, Mercy and Love, to those around me who live in darkness. 

My life is a witness of Your goodness O Lord, may I not squander it on worldly pursuits or vain glory, may my focus remain always on the way of the shepherd and the spirit of the evangelist, may I shine my light in the darkness today and point the way of everlasting life, through Jesus Christ, my Savior, my Redeemer, my Father.

Father, I lift up All my children before You today, may You keep them safe, may they sense Your presence in their lives and give You Glory, may they walk by Faith and shine Your light as Your children, a living testimony.

🕊️ Then He said to them, “These are the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me.” And He opened their understanding, that they might comprehend the Scriptures.

Then He said to them, “Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day, and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. 🕊️

Father, God, may you find the image I have created, acceptable in describing the scriptures.

I pray You open my mind to Your Word this day, may the images in my mind reflect the storyline in Your Word today, may I continue telling others, in story, the blessings You have given for us all to receive, and live by, without fear and doubt.

May You bless All my children today Lord, All my grandchildren, and my great grandchildren, Father may they receive Your Holy Spirit, Your Teacher, and may Your Word be opened to their mind and stored in their hearts. 

Father, I pray they all may be safe today. 

Fill me with Your Spirit today Lord, may I be as Your child of the light, Loving, Caring, and sharing Your story and our Faith together with my loved ones. 

May I shine your light in and through all I say and do, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. 

But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.

The Light of Christ’s Gospel

Therefore, since we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we do not lose heart. 

But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness nor handling the word of God deceitfully, but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God. 

But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them. 

For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord, and ourselves your bondservants for Jesus’ sake. 

For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of The glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. 🕊️

2 Corinthians 3:17-4:6

~~~

🕊️ 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. 🕊️

Praise God, Father, I am bowing my everything before You this day!

With every step I take, I hear Your praises being sung, I hear the chorus’s, I imaging the day to come, when we all stand before You, one thousands, thousands, ten thousands… standing before You, worshiping before You. Praise Yahweh!

🕊️ My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. 

But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. 

If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. 

But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. 

For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways. 🕊️

May I be a blessing before You this day Lord, may I shine bright, Your light, in and through all I say and do, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

🕊️ Now by this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments. 

He who says, “I know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. 

By this we know that we are in Him. 

He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked.

Brethren, I write no new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you have had from the beginning. 

The old commandment is the word which you heard from the beginning. 

Again, a new commandment I write to you, which thing is true in Him and in you, because the darkness is passing away, and the true light is already shining.

He who says he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in darkness until now. 

He who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him. 

But he who hates his brother is in darkness and walks in darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes. 🕊️
