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
Oh My Jesus, My Immanuel God Is With Us ~Original Keyboard Instrumental & Vocal Meditations For The Christmas Season
Praise our wonderful Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for blessing me with another Christmas album to share with you for this holy advent season as we celebrate the wonder surrounding the birth of our Lord.
The tracks on my latest release are more like a musical meditation reflecting the Christmas story when the album is considered as a whole unbroken composition. The songs are best listened to in sequence and meditated on while reading and praying through the Gospel stories related to the birth of Christ.
The Lord gave me a beautiful worship song for this album. It is simply called “The Jesus Worship Song”.
Very often I don’t know what to pray for even as the scriptures attest: “In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, Romans 8:26- NASB1995
Though I often don’t know how to pray as I should, yet the Lord helps me pray the simplest, most unfailing prayer: the humble prayer of Jesus’ holy name.
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus… name above all names, a prayer that is always according to the will of God that ever brings glory to the Father. For Jesus said, “Whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it.” John 14:13-14 NASB1995
May I ever sing it, ever pray it, for it glorifies the Father, it honors my Savior who died for me to redeem my soul.
My Lord will ever pray God’s will for whatever my need, and His prayers are always answered according to His will…oh praise Him for His gift of this beautiful prayer song.
For even as I am praying Jesus’ name, Christ’s Holy Spirit is within me praying according to the Father’s will, as I worship my Lord. I know He knows how to pray even when I don’t.
“… but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words; and He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.”~ Romans 8:26-27 NASB2020
Some of God’s children will say the song is a “vain repetition…” (*see Matthew 6:7)
But truly anything is a vain repetition if it is done for God repeatedly and yet the heart is not in it. For then it is as dead and lifeless as a sculpted praying angel.
What are vain repetitions? What is a vanity?
Something performed without meaning.
If I am praying to God in church or my quiet time, and my heart is on lunch, or social media, my work, or myself, then my prayer is a vain repetition.
For I am repeating this religious ritual over and over and it is in vain that I am drawing near to Him with my lips, yet my heart is far from Him, for so the Lord Jesus said to the Pharisees.
Anything I do repeatedly with an empty heart toward God is a vain rhyming pattern or a binding chain that means nothing and leads no closer to Christ, but is in fact leading us farther from Him. For my heart is somewhere else. It’s not on Him.
He sees and knows if my heart is serving Him in truth or is a charade.
But when we pray to the Lord in Spirit and in truth, with a humble pure heart, our prayers are heard. Even when we do not know what to pray for.
“For this reason also God highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” ~Philippians 2:9-11 NASB2020
The Lord is honored when we exalt His beautiful name in prayer, in worship, in every way we can!
May we proclaim His name throughout the whole earth and of it never be ashamed!
May our Lord and Savior be ever glorified! May we pray to ever love Him more and more, now and forever!
And may this prayer of His Holy Name be on the lips of all His children who like me, may not know how to pray sometimes.
The prayer song of His Holy name is a beautiful gift from Him.
For Jesus Christ is the Gift of the Father!
“Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift!”
2 Corinthians 9:15 NASB2020
In Jesus’ name amen.
Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father,
May Thy Holy Son be ever glorified through the songs You blessed us with this Christmas on this album, thank You so much! Please ever draw our hearts closer to Thee, to love You more and more, now and throughout all eternity.
I love You, In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Original Video Painting
God So Loved The World is a 27 second scripture painting video the Lord blessed me with this past Saturday October 21, 2023.
After suffering from a severe migraine the Lord encouraged me to paint a picture of Christ with the crown of thorns, to remember that He’d once suffered violent pain in His head too when He died for all our sins. He understood my suffering and was with me. As I painted I felt His presence comforting me.
He gave me the scriptures in this video to meditate on after I felt better and could create this project ~~which I pray will encourage everyone as much as it has encouraged me, in Jesus’ name, amen.
Credits:
The Art software I used to paint the picture on my IPad is an app called Sketchbook. I used Adobe Software to add the animations and desing the graphics; I used IMovie to assemble the video and then Picollage to create a border around it.
😊 ~~I just discovered PicCollage could even create videos! What fun!
I have been too hampered with migraines to make many videos lately so am excited when the Lord does enable me with the grace to make one not only to comfort and encourage me, but to share with His children!
May this effort bless you all and remind you of His great love and sacrifice for each of us, especially if you are in a challenging situation, shadow valley, or suffering pain.
May all who read this know that you are ever in the Lord’s prayers. For the Bible says that Jesus is always praying for us at the right hand of His Heavenly Father every day and night, and He knows our every need, and His prayers are always answered according to God’s will at the right time. The Lord loves each of us as if we were the only child He had to love. He has no special favorites, for all are His favorites, In Jesus’ Name amen. 🙏🏽❤️💕
