"Be Thou My Vision" by Eden's Bridge

This hymn has called to my Irish heart since the first I heard it! I am half Irish on my Mom's side and these words light a spiritual fire in my heart whenever I hear it and sing it in worship! 

I researched a little of its history and added a link if you want to know more. If you choose to listen, may you be blessed with God's majesty and presence with full knowledge in your heart that our High King of Heaven loves and protects us always!

The following is found in the video description:

Fire glowed against the visage of St. Patrick as he lit yet another candle in the dark Irish churchyard on Slane Hill. The fire reminded him of Christ, Redeemer and light of his life. Opposite the churchyard was Tara, where resided the pagan High King Lóe­gaire-- the man who outlawed candles in Ireland. But it was the eve of Easter, 433 A.D. and St. Patrick was determined to glorify God that night. And thus began the hymn. 

"Therefore, on that day when I was rebuked, as I have just mentioned, I saw in a vision of the night a document before my face, without honour, and meanwhile I heard a divine prophecy, saying to me: 'We have seen with displeasure the face of the chosen one divested of name.' And he did not say 'You have seen with displeasure', but 'We have seen with displeasure' (as if He included Himself) . He said then: 'He who touches you, touches the apple of my eye.'"-- Saint Patrick 

This is very true for me, especially with this hymn!

"Sometimes hymn singing invites us to connect with the saints who have gone before. Such is the case with the famous Irish hymn, "Be Thou my vision." The original poem, found in two Irish manuscripts in the library of the Royal Irish Academy, may be dated as early as the 8th century."

Three Red Marbles

This is the life legacy I would hope everyone would want to have! I know I do! I was blessed to get this in an email today from a wonderful, caring friend. I have to share it with you. I know your heart will be touched as mine was!

3 Red Marbles - audio reading by Anita

Three Red Marbles
I was at the corner grocery store buying some early potatoes.
I noticed a small boy, delicate of bone and feature, ragged but clean, hungrily appraising a basket of freshly picked green peas.
I paid for my potatoes, but was also drawn to the display of fresh green peas.
I am a pushover for creamed peas and new potatoes. Pondering the peas, I couldn't help overhearing the conversation between Mr. Miller (the store owner) and the ragged boy next to me.
'Hello Barry, how are you today?'
'H'lo, Mr. Miller. Fine, thank ya. Jus' admirin' them peas. They sure look good.'
'They are good, Barry. How's your Ma?'
'Fine. Gittin' stronger alla' time.'
'Good. Anything I can help you with?'
'No, Sir. Jus' admirin' them peas.'
'Would you like take some home?' asked Mr. Miller.
'No, Sir. Got nuthin' to pay for 'em with.'
'Well, what have you to trade me for some of those peas?'
'All I got's my prize marble here.'
'Is that right? Let me see it' said Miller.
'Here 'tis. She's a dandy.'
'I can see that. Hmmmmm, only thing is this one is blue and I sort of go for red. Do you have a red one like this at home?' the store owner asked.
'Not zackley but almost.'
'Tell you what. Take this sack of peas home with you and next trip this way let me look at that red marble', Mr. Miller told the boy.
'Sure will. Thanks Mr. Miller.'

Mrs. Miller, who had been standing nearby, came over to help me. With a smile she said, 'There are two other boys like him in our community, all three are in very poor circumstances. Jim just loves to bargain with them for peas, apples, tomatoes, or whatever.
When they come back with their red marbles, and they always do, he decides he doesn't like red after all and he sends them home with a bag of produce for a green marble or an orange one, when they come on their next trip to the store.'

I left the store smiling to myself, impressed with this man.

A short time later I moved to Colorado, but I never forgot the story of this man, the boys, and their bartering for marbles.

Several years went by, each more rapid than the previous one.

Just recently, I had occasion to visit some old friends in that Idaho community and while there I learned that Mr. Miller had died.
They were having his visitation that evening and knowing my friends wanted to go, I agreed to accompany them.
Upon arrival at the mortuary, we fell into line to meet the relatives of the deceased and to offer whatever words of comfort we could.

Ahead of us in line were three young men.
One was in an army uniform and the other two wore nice haircuts, dark suits and white shirts...all very professional looking.
They approached Mrs. Miller, standing composed and smiling by her husband's casket.
Each of the young men hugged her, kissed her on the cheek, spoke briefly with her and moved on to the casket.
Her misty light blue eyes followed them as, one by one; each young man stopped briefly and placed his own warm hand over the cold pale hand in the casket.
Each left the mortuary awkwardly, wiping his eyes.

Our turn came to meet Mrs. Miller. I told her who I was and reminded her of the story from those many years ago and what she had told me about her husband's bartering for marbles.
With her eyes glistening, she took my hand and led me to the casket. 
'Those three young men who just left were the boys I told you about. They just told me how they appreciated the things Jim 'traded' them. Now, at last, when Jim could not change his mind about color or size ... they came to pay their debt.'
 
'We've never had a great deal of the wealth of this world,' she confided, 'but right now, Jim would consider himself the richest man in Idaho '.
With loving gentleness, she lifted the lifeless fingers of her deceased husband. Resting underneath were three exquisitely shined red marbles.

The Moral: We will not be remembered by our words, but by our kind deeds.

Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath. 

Today I wish you a day of ordinary miracles:

• A fresh pot of coffee you didn't make yourself.
  
• An unexpected phone call from an old friend.
  
• Green stoplights on your way to work.
  
• The fastest line at the grocery store.
  
• A good old sing-along song on the radio.
  
• Your keys found right where you left them.
  

Send a link to this to the people you'll never forget. If you don't send it to anyone, it means you are in way too much of a hurry to even notice the ordinary miracles when they occur.

It's not what you gather, but what you scatter that tells what kind of life you have lived.

Jesus' Bride

{Original publish date of 11/7/15 at 1:31 AM}

I Love You, Lord

God, you alone created me.

What I will become, You now see.

Each day You strengthen and sustain

Holding my heart, to keep it from pain.

I dedicate all my life to You.

Let each day prove me to be true.

To serve You and to do Your will.

No matter the cost -- Your plans fulfill.

You've opened my eyes to see so clear.

You've anointed my ears that I might hear,

Your slightest whisper in the night

Fills my heart with purest delight.

My love for You flows with joy from my heart.

With such purity it drowns the enemy's dart.

You have proven yourself again and again

As my greatest treasure and very best Friend.

You care for me with such gentleness and grace,

I long for the day when I gaze upon your face.

Adorned in the beautiful gown of the Bride

With my Savior, Jesus, standing beside.

It's hard for my finite mind to understand

Why you would choose me for this love so grand,

There's no way to repay what You've so freely given

Until I met You --- I knew 'nuthin' 'bout livin'.

My thanks to you hardly seems enough.

You hold me so close when times get rough.

Yet my love for You is all that You ask.

This You want from me is an easy task.

So Father this letter, to You from me,

Is sent from a captive, now joyously free!

All that I am, I surrender to You.

The King of my heart, Faithful and True.

Maranatha,
Anna

2 Corinthians 11:2 - For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.

Ephesians 5:27 - That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

Revelation 19:7-9 - 
7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. 
8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. 
9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.

"Prepare the Way ...

the Lord is at hand!"

As I have said before and will continue to say until we are taken away: the Words, the Dreams, are all coming faster and faster to His Children. This blog has three contributors in it. One is done in written form, one is a photographer, and one is in a video.

I am placing a link to a short rapture dream video here. She mentions the importance of not looking back (remember Lot's wife)...
Rapture Dream on August 14th by Harpazo Rapturo

Photo credit: Jennifer Khordi Aug. 17, 2016

The following is a post from Rene De Villiers 8/17/2016 at 9:31am:
Hello everyone,
About a week or two ago, I woke up with the words "prepare the way, the Lord is at hand!"
Prepare the way - To make ready beforehand for a specific purpose, as for an event or occasion.
At hand - If something is at hand, near at hand, or close at hand, it is very near in place or time.
The next night I had a dream, about a wedding. In the dream I knew it was an event that has NEVER happened before and would be the first time something like this would be recorded in history! Everyone was talking with excitement about this wedding. All of us who was part of this wedding, was so excited and knew it was extremely special. I was in this massive ball room, and there were white drapings from the roof, with crystal lights, it was all so beautiful. I saw many many brides in this room, but I knew there were other brides all over the world that were also preparing for this wedding day! We were all wearing our corsets, our hair was done and make up. There was a stage in this ball room, and a woman was announcing that the flower girls will do their rehearsals for the actual wedding, I saw many flower girls walking out with their beautiful dresses one after the other. All the brides to be were so overwhelmed and excited to see the flower girls, all ready to go. The woman then made an announcement it's time, that we could all go put on our wedding gowns. The brides all ran with joy to put on their dresses, every bride knew exactly where their gowns were, there were MANY of gowns. There were so much joy, and everyone helped one another with their dresses. I believe this is a dream from God about the bride, and it shows how ready we are, and that it's VERY close. We are about to put on our dresses for our bridegroom! Putting on your dress on wedding day, is the last thing you do before you see your groom. I know a while ago, Rhonda Empson had a dream of these brides preparing for the wedding the next day, and their hair was already done! Now we are are really approaching that moment, where we see our groom.
The next morning I woke up with the word Harpazo, I've never heard of this word before. I googled it and this is the definition: to seize, carry off by force, to seize on, claim for one's self eagerly,to snatch out or away. The word "Rapture" comes from the Latin word "Rapturo", which is simply a translation of the Greek word "Harpazo."
The next night I had the following dream: We were at a gathering, but it wasn't just christians. I was outside, talking to people, the best way I can describe what happened next.. Is there where I was standing on a hill, I looked up because of a strange sound I heard, in the sky. It was like many, many meteors drawing back into the heavens! Then I could see more close up and I saw it was people being raptured. I started shouting to the people around me, that It's the rapture, Jesus is here!! I ran to them and asked if they knew Jesus. Many people were saying no, I started leading them into the sinners prayer, because I knew it was nearly our time to go up. The next scene the sky opened up, and I could see deeper into the heavenly, I saw people hugging each other, they were all so happy to see one another! There were so much joy. I know in real life, it will be in a twinkle of an eye, and there won't be time to lead people into the sinners prayer, and everyone will be raptured at the same time. Brothers and sisters, I really believe this is important and God is showing us how close the rapture is!
The week before that, I dreamed also of the rapture. I heard a weird loud sound and I woke up in my dream, and the sky were all lighted up, and I looked at my husband, we held hands because we knew it was the rapture. We then started lifting up of the bed. I woke myself up, I thought it was really happening!
God is showing us that we as his children, are already prepared to meet Jesus! He's coming for us any moment now!
I hope this encouraged you all!
God bless 
by Rene De Villiers

I am sharing to encourage all of us! We are ambassadors of Jesus and we have lost souls to bring to Him. This is the first time I have heard mention that, during the actual rapture, 'we must not look back.' I feel in my spirit how significant this direction is! As we are being taken away, continue to look up, look at Jesus. Do not look down or around or take your eyes off Jesus and Heaven ... remember Lot's wife!

Maranatha,
Anna

WE ARE the END TIMES' Generation ...

and we are living in exciting times!

Matthew 24:34
“Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.” 

Revelation 1:1-3

1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:

2 Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.

3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.

Proverbs 17:6

Children's children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers.

So you say in your heart, "Yeah, yeah ... I've heard it all before. Jesus is coming ... yada yada ..."

but WAIT ... when the signs of the times are all around us ... we are told to look up for our redemption draws nigh. So what should we do when the time is at hand?

Come As You Are!

So you don't believe Jesus can or will forgive you? You think you have done too much ... that there is no way He would accept you? All LIES from the enemy of our souls! Believe Jesus and accept His Love for you!
Jesus stands before you, His arms are open wide, He is ready for you to accept Him as your Savior ... RIGHT NOW! 

A Sinners Prayer

“Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from you. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward you. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your will for the rest of my life. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.”

To Satan's Servants, An Invitation From Jesus
There is time to turn around, all will be forgiven, I will protect you from your adversaries, because you will be Mine. 

Message to Satan's Servants from Jesus
Are you afraid to break away? Are you under the spell of these lies that you or family members will be killed if you try. Am I not the Creator of the angels who fell from grace and degraded themselves into these sick creatures? There is no weapon formed against you that will prosper. No weapon. No, not even one. There is no demon more powerful than Me, they are all pitiable in My eyes. I will raise you up with My Grace into the stature of someone you never thought you could be.

Abba, I pray this Psalm for the lost in bondage to Satan. You can and will break every chain as their eyes are opened and they feel the greatness of Your LOVE! In Jesus Name, Amen!
Psalm 18:16-19
16 He sent from above, He took me;
He drew me out of many waters.
17 He delivered me from my strong enemy,
From those who hated me,
For they were too strong for me.
18 They confronted me in the day of my calamity,
But the Lord was my support.
19 He also brought me out into a broad place;
He delivered me because He delighted in me.

Be Still in the Light of my Presence while I communicate Love to you. There is no force in the universe as powerful as My Love. You are constantly aware of limitations: your own and others'. But there is no limit to My Love; it fills all of space, time and eternity.
Now you see through a glass, darkly, but someday you will see Me face-to-Face. Then you will be able to experience fully how wide and long and high and deep is My Love for you. If you were to experience that now, you would be overwhelmed to the point of feeling crushed. But you have an eternity ahead of you, absolutely guaranteed, during which you can enjoy My Presence in unrestricted ecstasy. For now, the knowledge of My loving Presence is sufficient to cary you through each day.

Friday, February 26, 2016, Rhemas:

Salvation 

Luke 19:10 (NKJV)
10 for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save (G4982) that which was lost.

Justification

(Takes place in an instant at the very beginning of our Christian life) 

Romans 3:22-24 (NKJV)
22 even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference; 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,

Perseverance

(Hold fast)

Hebrews 3:14 (NKJV) 
14 For we have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end,

Prayers are going up, around the clock, to prop the door of Mercy open! These prayers are wedging themselves in to keep the door open. This condition will last only as long as the Lord allows it to. Please do not delay! Run to Jesus now ... please!

Anna

Every Day is a New Beginning!

At the beginning of this New Year, I say this prayer from my heart that all that land here are brought by the Holy Spirit to find the Salvation of our Lord and Savior Jesus!

Abba, Father, I come before you, praying in The Spirit in supplication for all the saints.  Thank you for your Mercy, Love and Grace! 
Holy Spirit, I thank you for bringing each one here. For directing their paths and showing them the Love that Jesus has for each one! 
Jesus, thank you for your Everlasting Love that is without measure. We will not truly know Your Passion until we are in Your Presence in Heaven. We get a small taste here but our finite minds cannot fathom the depth of your Love and your Peace! 
Father, thank you that, at the moment your Son's obedient sacrifice was complete, you sent an earthquake to open the rocks beneath His cross. You sprinkled the blood of your precious Son, Jesus, onto the Mercy Seat of the Ark of the Covenant and then declared 'It is finished!"

You loved us so much, that you would rather die than spend Eternity without us! 

I worship and adore you! 
You are King of Kings and Lord of Lords! 
Mighty Counselor, Prince of Peace, 
Jehovah Jireh (The Lord is my Provider), 
Jehovah Nissi (The Lord is my Banner), 
Jehovah Tsidkenu (The Lord my Righteousness)! 
Please, In Jesus Name I ask, Deliver us from evil! Amen!

Luke 9:23 (NKJV) 
23 Then He said to them all, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.

Contentment -- Proverbs 14:30 (NKJV) 
30 A sound heart is life to the body,
But envy is rottenness to the bones.

Conflict -- 1 Corinthians 6:1-5 (NKJV)
1 Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unrighteous, and not before the saints? 2 Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world will be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters? 3 Do you not know that we shall judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life? 4 If then you have judgments concerning things pertaining to this life, do you appoint those who are least esteemed by the church to judge? 5 I say this to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you, not even one, who will be able to judge between his brethren?

Repentance -- Psalm 51:1-17 (NKJV)
1 Have mercy upon me, O God,
According to Your lovingkindness;
According to the multitude of Your tender mercies,
Blot out my transgressions.
2 Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity,
And cleanse me from my sin.
3 For I acknowledge my transgressions,
And my sin is always before me.
4 Against You, You only, have I sinned,
And done this evil in Your sight—
That You may be found just when You speak,
And blameless when You judge.
5 Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity,
And in sin my mother conceived me.
6 Behold, You desire truth in the inward parts,
And in the hidden part You will make me to know wisdom.
7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean;
Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
8 Make me hear joy and gladness,
That the bones You have broken may rejoice.
9 Hide Your face from my sins,
And blot out all my iniquities.
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God,
And renew a steadfast spirit within me.
11 Do not cast me away from Your presence,
And do not take Your Holy Spirit from me.
12 Restore to me the joy of Your salvation,
And uphold me by Your generous Spirit.
13 Then I will teach transgressors Your ways,
And sinners shall be converted to You.
14 Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O God,
The God of my salvation,
And my tongue shall sing aloud of Your righteousness.
15 O Lord, open my lips,
And my mouth shall show forth Your praise.
16 For You do not desire sacrifice, or else I would give it;
You do not delight in burnt offering.
17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit,
A broken and a contrite heart—
These, O God, You will not despise.

Holy Spirit -- 2 Peter 1:20-21 (NKJV)
20 knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation, 21 for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.

Jesus, I trust in You!  Jesus. I trust in You!  Jesus, I trust in You!

Jesus Blood Sample!

The Ark of the Covenant was discovered under the spot where Jesus was crucified! Jeremiah hid the Ark in a place called Jeremiah's Grotto ... 600 years before the crucifixion of Jesus would take place directly above that spot. 

The Bible tells us there was an earthquake when Jesus died on the Cross. Jesus blood ran down from the stone where His cross was standing in the earth. The blood ran onto the Mercy Seat of the Ark of the Covenant! The man who was shown this miraculous find, Ron Wyatt, took a sample of this dried human blood to a lab in Jerusalem. The scientists tested the blood and were astounded: Still alive after 2000 years! Only had 24 chromosomes ... 23 from His mother, Mary, and 1 Y chromosome - from the Holy Spirit overshadowing Mary as the Bible tells us! 

This blood proves Jesus had NO human father or the blood would have had the complimentary 46 chromosomes. This blood would not make a viable baby .... BUT GOD ... Jesus was fully man and fully God ... and perhaps now you can understand why this is! The scientists were so amazed, they asked 'Who's blood is this?' and Ron Wyatt replied 'It is the Blood of your Messiah, Jesus!' 

The Ark of the Covenant and the Blood of Jesus

More detail on the finding of the Ark of the Covenant is here:

The Ark of the Covenant Part 1

The Ark of the Covenant Part 2

God generously showed Ron Wyatt many mysteries ... some that will be revealed later after the rapture of the Bride of Christ! The links above are just some of the numerous, amazing Biblical finds ... that God showed to His humble servant, Ron. The world has scoffed and tried to discredit Ron Wyatt. Ron went to be with the Lord in August 1999. Rest assured, what he found IS authentic and God chose who would do the finding! That the world ridiculed and hated Ron is no surprise ... they hated Jesus first and if we are in Him - they hate us also! The servant is no better than his Master. 

May you be blessed: your eyes and ears opened ... to see and hear the truth!

Plain Speaking!

There will be no beating around the bush in this blog post! Time is too short. It doesn't matter if you believe me or not. It doesn't matter if you have heard Jesus is coming your whole life and nothing has happened yet. The Point-of-No-Return is on the horizon for this world. Life as we know it is soon to be only a memory. You can feel it in the air. Evil is increasing at an alarming rate. There will be no more forestalling of the Rapture. Jesus IS coming for His Bride ... the time IS imminent.

Jesus is revealing Himself to those who spend time sitting at His feet, listening, learning and loving. He longs to have a relationship with you, as well. There are none of us, His Children, who are higher or of more value than any other. Our worth lies in the high cost Jesus paid for each of us. We are His Passion! We are His Heart. The Triune God truly loves us with an Everlasting Love!

So here are some important points for you to ponder:

• The Syrian refugees are a Trojan Horse - our President is a deviously clever man - he is bringing the refugees into the USA on the emotion of compassion for what they have been through. All the while, KNOWING that terrorists are definitely in the mix. 
• A Jewish teen was taken up to Heaven recently. Rabbi Rami Levy & 15 yr old Natan I encourage you to watch this video. During Natan's recounting of the experiences and knowledge he gained there, I came away with some interesting bits of knowledge:
• In Heaven, Obama was identified by the name Gog. He is the leader of the army that is going to attack Israel. This war actually started on 9/11/2014, although we haven't seen the outward appearance of this fact as yet. Once the UN forces led by Gog (Obama) attack Israel; the IDF will last for only two days and then they will be defeated. God will not let Israel fall. Ezekial 38. He will defend Israel and punish the nations that have turned their backs on her. Yes, the USA is in league with the other nations and God will punish ALL the nations! Gog is defeated in Israel and his body will be buried there. Once the world becomes aware of it, the war will last two weeks.

Do not continue to say 'No!' to Jesus or to be lukewarm and complacent!

• The Bridegroom IS coming for his Bride! 
• Wake up church! Wake up and stay alert! You are comfortable and want your ears tickled. You do not want to miss the Marriage Supper of the Lamb because you were lazy and complacent. There are many who will be left behind because they did not take their relationship with Jesus seriously. Deuteronomy 4:29 'If you seek me with all your heart, you will find me.'
• Come to Him, all you who are unsaved! He waits with open arms to bring you into His Family! He is not willing for any to go to Hell. That is definitely not what He wants for you! Please, choose Salvation! We cannot even begin to imagine the joys of Eternity in Heaven! I cannot fathom the depth of pain and suffering through all of Eternity in Hell, totally bereft of the presence of God.

What Gift(s) Are You Giving...

this Holy Season to the Son of God? Are you looking for gifts to give to Jesus? The best gifts come from the heart and are cheerfully given. 

Personal gifts we can give include dying to self, taking up our cross, obedience and quick repentance when we know we have done something not pleasing to the Lord. Let us not give in to buying something just for the 'having' of it! Especially this time of year, when greed and avarice are awaiting their prey wherever we go.

We always hear of these gifts for others listed below, but how many have we ever done ourselves? Just because we wanted to and, in the doing, found that our spirit felt happy, not prideful, in caring for someone else.

Food for the hungry

Drink for the thirsty

Clothing and Shelter for the poor

Have we been, or are we even now, guilty of seeing or knowing of someone in need yet we pass them by and do nothing? Even worse to me is when we tell them "to go see 'so-and-so' or 'go to a certain place' and they can help you" yet we provided no way for them to get there and do not offer to go out of our way to bring it to them. This is lip service, not heart service. We should be doers of the Word not hearers only. 

It is better for the lost to SEE a sermon in LOVE and actions than to only HEAR one from lips with no love or effort being shown.

Matthew 1:23(NKJV)

23 “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which is translated, “God with us.”

Matthew 25:31-46 (NKJV)

The Son of Man Will Judge the Nations

31 “When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy[a] angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory. 32 All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats. 33 And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left. 34 Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: 35 for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; 36 I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’

37 “Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? 38 When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? 39 Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ 40 And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’

41 “Then He will also say to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels: 42 for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink;43 I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, naked and you did not clothe Me, sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.’

44 “Then they also will answer Him,[b] saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to You?’ 45 Then He will answer them, saying, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.’ 46 And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

Revelation 19:16 (NKJV)

16 And He has on His robe and on His thigh a name written:

KING OF KINGS AND

LORD OF LORDS.

Be Abundantly Favored and Blessed,

World or Jesus - Count the Cost

God's wisdom, given to me when I asked for it, on 2/28/1996:

To look at circumstances means taking our eyes off of God. When we keep our eyes focused on Him, our problems seem to fade away, as of no consequence. It is easy to write these words but, apart from God's enabling presence, impossible to live them.

I am His child; freely chosen by my King to be a member of His Royal Family. He looked around and chose me, not for who or what I am, but because He delighted in me! Who am I to question the Lord's choice?! What an ungrateful child I would be to do so. All He asks of me is to love Him with all my heart, mind, soul and strength ... and to love my neighbor as myself. What a small request in return for all He has done in my behalf! 

Lord, help me to draw even closer to you. To determine to do your perfect will -- no matter how anything looks! I love, worship and adore you; Father, Son and Holy Spirit! In Jesus precious name, Amen!

In a few short months, the words written above will be 20 years old. Yet, it seems like yesterday when I sat at His feet and asked for His wisdom during another deep trial in my life. My brother, Danny, had passed away the month before and my personal life was a shambles. My heart was full of pain. Yet God has proven Himself faithful to me from before that day to this. He will never leave me nor forsake me. He will comfort me all the days of my life.

If you have a calling on your heart from the Lord, and you follow the world instead of what you know is God's perfect will for your life: You are committing to a life that will not satisfy you. If you follow God's will and walk His way, the world will hate you for His sake. If you are friends of the world, you do not know God. If you lay down your life and pick up your cross, you will be labeled a lunatic, poor and an outcast. They will say you are irresponsible, lazy and good for nothing. That is true ... in a way. You and the world's goals have nothing in common. To the world, you ARE good for nothing. God does not see us as the world sees us. He sees our hearts. He places the call upon our spirits of the plans He has for us in this 'dressing room' of life.

Count the cost of surrendering to Jesus and giving your heart and life to Him ... I promise you ... HE IS MORE THAN WORTH IT!!! 

Good Good Father by Chris Tomlin

LIFE

This life is just a dressing room,

Where our spirits are taught to grow and bloom.

Each day we're faced with a choice

Stay quiet to hear the Still Small Voice.

To know if the spirit speaking

Is truth or darkness -- takes seeking.

Do the words you hear with the Bible agree?

If not, then tell the messenger to flee!

Demons may come as angels of light.

We are told to test them, to see if they're right.

They try to trap us so we'll join in their doom.

This life IS just a dressing room!

My rhema words for yesterday and the ones Jesus gave me for today are especially powerful!

• Trusting God: Luke 12:32

                Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.

• Loneliness: 2 Cor 6:18

                AND WILL BE A FATHER UNTO YOU, AND YE SHALL BE MY SONS AND DAUGHTERS, SAITH THE LORD ALMIGHTY.

• Friends: Proverbs 18:24

                A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.

Tuesday, 10/21/2015

• Peace: Proverbs 16:7

               When a man's ways please the Lord, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.

• Jesus 2nd Coming: Rev. 22:12, 20

               And, behold I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.

               He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen'. Even so, come, Lord Jesus,

• Forgiving Others: Romans 12:14, 17, 19-21

               Bless them which persecute you: bless and curse not.

               Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.

               Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, VENGEANCE IS MINE; I WILL REPAY, saith the Lord.

               THEREFORE IF THINE ENEMY HUNGER, FEED HIM: IF HE THIRST, GIVE HIM DRINK: FOR IN SO DOING THOU SHALT HEAP COALS OF FIRE ON HIS HEAD.

               Be not overcome with evil, but overcome evil with good.

May each of you reading this page walk in His Love and in Peace. You did not land here by accident but by Divine purpose. 

Abba, please bless each person who reads these words and, if they do not yet know you, I pray they will see and accept the awesomeness of your Saving Grace freely given by the sacrifice of our Savior, Jesus! In Jesus name I pray. Amen
