Upon This Rock

Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God ….according to Romans 10.
We must hold fast to Christ’s name and to the gospel we have learned from the beginning the apostles warned.
We can read Gods word for ourselves to learn how important this is and allow the Lord, our Good Shepherd Jesus Christ to teach us how important it is to abide in His word and listen to His voice.
He said His sheep would flee from the stranger’s voice but would know their Good Shepherd and follow Him always.
May our Lord Jesus Christ speak to our hearts as we wait silently before Him and trust Him to lead and guide us away from those who cause His sheep to err from the truth, in Jesus holy name, amen.
Remember always Jesus said, “love one another, by this all will know you are My disciples when you have love for each other. “ (*see John 13) Jesus said the thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy, but I have come to bring life…” (*see John 10:10)
Christ’s children do not fall in league with the Devil to do harm and then justify it as God’s will…not according to the apostles and teachings of Christ. Lord help all Christians to read, read, and read over and over 1 ,2,3 John and the Gospel of John. And then read and meditate on Revelations 3…
Heavenly Father, help us to pray and ask You always as David prayed, “ Search me, oh God, and know my heart, try me and know my thoughts, and see if there be any harmful way in me and lead me in the way everlasting,” (*See Psalm 139)
Lord engrave this truth upon our hearts that Thy word says, “He who loves God is known by God,” and…that “God has no favorites.”
We must walk in love before our Creator who is the God of love who desires that all people be saved and whose only begotten Son suffered and died a horrible death on the cross that salvation would be available for all.
Salvation is a gift of grace and love…may we truly believe in this…and thank our Heavenly Father. May God bless and keep all His precious sheep whom He loves. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Two Faces

Two Faces

The prayer poem Two Faces is inspired from a dream I had the other night.

In the poem I describe my vision of the two faces of the Lord Jesus Christ and when I woke up I was very upset and prayed as I always do about the dreams the Lord gives me for He very often speaks to me through His Word when I ask what my dreams mean. So He gave me a few verses to meditate on as well as the prayer poem. After reading the poem, and praying see how many more bible verses the Holy Spirit inspires you to find to meditate on. He will teach you many things to be sure! May God bless and encourage you as you study and ponder His word and spend time in fellowship with Him today. In Jesus’ name, amen,

Here are some verses.

ENCOURAGING SCRIPTURES

”He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world didn’t recognize Him. He came to his own, and those who were His own didn’t receive Him.

But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become God’s children, to those who believe in His name: who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.“ John 1:10-13 WEBUS

”In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him. Without Him, nothing was made that has been made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn’t overcome it.“

John 1:1-5 WEBUS

”Even if our Good News is veiled, it is veiled in those who are dying, in whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving,

that the light of the Good News of the glory of Christ,

who is the image of God, should not dawn on them.

For we don’t preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake, seeing it is God who said,

“Light will 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 4:3-6 WEBUS

Therefore I urge you, brothers,

by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice,

holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service.

Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed

by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove

what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.“

Romans 12:1-2 WEBUS

”Jesus answered, “My Kingdom is not of this world.

If my Kingdom were of this world,

then my servants would fight,

that I wouldn’t be delivered to the Jews.

But now my Kingdom is not from here.”

Pilate therefore said to him, “Are you a king then?”

Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king.

For this reason I have been born, and for this reason

I have come into the world, that I should testify to the truth.

Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice.”“

John 18:36-37 WEBUS

”Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you don’t believe.

The works that I do in My Father’s name, these testify about Me.

But you don’t believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I told you.

My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.

I give eternal life to them.

They will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand.

My Father who has given them to Me is greater than all.

No one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand.

I and the Father are one.”“

John 10:25-30 WEBUS

”Therefore Jesus said to them, “If God were your father, you would love Me, for I came out and have come from God. For I haven’t come of Myself, but He sent Me.

Why don’t you understand My speech?

Because you can’t hear My word.

You are of your father the devil,

and you want to do the desires of your father.

He was a murderer from the beginning,

and doesn’t stand in the truth,

because there is no truth in him.

When he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own;

for he is a liar, and the father of lies.

Which of you convicts me of sin?

If I tell the truth, why do you not believe Me?

He who is of God hears the words of God.

For this cause you don’t hear, because you are not of God.”

John 8:42-44, 46-47 WEBUS
