......Let us remember church and friends that all the gospels, the saints rejoicings and gatherings, the writings of our hope that the apostle Paul penned, and the joy unspeakable and full of glory verse in Peters letter, and the sweetness of the fellowship with the Lord of the early church, all of that was going on and being done right in the midst of great persecutions and threatening's that came against them from the anti Jesus people and spirit. ......God can give His presence, his peace and joy to our heart and souls no matter what is going on in the world or around us...Like the prophet Isaiah wrote, in the most parched land God made His rivers and plants to flow, to spring up and grow up in driest ground...And also like Jesus said when all the crazy things start to happen of the end times events; He said. WHEN YOU SEE THESE THINGS (THESE TROUBLES) BEGIN TO COME TO PASS, he said, REJOICE and BE EXCEEDINGLY GLAD for you have much IN ME to hope for, my promises and my soon return. ........Folks Christ has commanded us and given us HIS FULL PERMISSION to rejoice and be exceedingly glad even in the midst of the most darkest times and the most trying times on earth. .......Our Lords joy on earth was always full and his joy was never diminished by the evil and troubles going on in Israel and around the world..NEVER. Jesus had no shame and no guilt trip about his gladness and about keeping his joy and happiness of heart and spirit full when all around him things were ugly, dirty, and evil....His secret? His heart and mind stayed on the Farther thru it all. He faithfully obeyed the Father and stayed in the closest inner fellowship with him and protected that inner fellowship with all diligence so that the River of the Father within him would flow unquenched........deno.....share freely.
......And Isaiah the prophet of God writing by the Holy Ghost about Jesus said...And His Name shall be called WONDERFUL.... .......Friends God is to be known. On the cross he poured himself out thru the purifying blood for His Spirit to be received within the hearts of men by faith. By His own blood He cleanses us for HIS GREAT ENTRANCE. .......Believe me, there is PLENTY of the Spirit of God to fill all of us up to overflowing forever and plenty forever leftover and then some. Gods length, and breadth, and depths, and heights are immeasurable. He is from Everlasting to Everlasting. Always has been and ever shall be with nothing of Himself ever diminishing. Not even one single spiritual cell. He forever fills up all eternity with the presence of His Eternal Spirit. We are just a tiny speck on a planet of His Eternal Spirits glory that fills all creation, all time and space, and all past, present, and all futures. Truly there is more than enough of God to go around and enter all who receive Him. ........Jesus said to the disciples in Johns gospel concerning Gods Spirits Entrance and of the Holy Spirit of God, he said, The Holy Spirit is with you, (and such a covenant position is good), but better than that covenant position Jesus said, HE SHALL BE IN YOU. (Such is much more BENEFICIAL). ........Church, in us, INSIDE US who have receive Christ within, He that is called WONDERFUL resides. Everything about he that is within us is no less than WONDERFUL, EXCEEDING GREAT and GLORIOUS. .........If we think little of Jesus it is because we are thinking with enemy placed blinders on, blinders used by the RULER of the darkness and blindness of this world to keep us in the dark of how WONDERFUL and GLORIOUS and LOVING Jesus really is. Look at His creation. It reveals much of the Lords incredible understanding, of his glorious power, and AWING WONDER...He shall be called WONDERFUL for so WONDERFUL Jesus in His Glory really is. .........Let us ask God to OPEN OUR EYES to more and more of the beauty and glory and WONDERFULNESS of Jesus who lives within us, and to cause us to walk in the light of that further given understanding with Love, Joy, Strength, and Power from on HIGH so that our rejoicing in the Lord with JOY increases and so that the Name of the Lord be GLORIFIED.....Amen.....deno....share freely.
......Remember Lord, only you are my hope. You are my life and my salvation. Without you I dry up on the vine. Without your light I walk as if blind. Without you I cry seeing no living water in my cup. Like a dry garden my soul is thirsting for you, for your rain, your latter rain. My soul thirst for you and my prayers haves ascended, and yet I have reason to hope greatly and to be expectant. For when my mind and body and soul shouts at me that they are to famished to hope and to press on, right then, so many times, you revived me and restored again my soul and my spirit did rejoice in God my Savior. ........You take me to the Red Sea trials so that my hope points only to you, for without you I can do nothing. You deliver me. When all my hope in my strength is gone, right then I have seen You show up again and again. My deliverance is the Lord. My breath, my thoughts, my life is Jesus the Lord of glory who is also our Messiah and Christ, the giver of the waters of life. .......Revive me again soon Lord. According to the covenant of great promises soon restore my soul. You have pardoned me and you have forgiven me but as a father you chasten me with your whip that I would learn to say no and to not agree with my iniquity as if sin has no consequence. Obedience makes sweet the fruit, but a rebellious heart has much history in the land of Israel and of the gentiles, where even the chosen that rebelled were forced by their sin to trod. Away with all this dry. Come Lord and pour your refreshing waters upon us and make us so green, so fruitful and deliciously sweet to you in Christ. ........Fill my cup Lord, I lift it up Lord. Come and quench all this thirsting in my soul. Bread of heaven, feed me till I want no more. Fill my cup, fill it up and make me whole....deno....share freely.
In the first chapter of Johns gospel we read...And God became flesh and himself dwelt amongst us....In the book of Isaiah we read...Behold said the prophet Isaiah, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and you O Israel shall know His name, He shall be called Immanuel which being interpreted means GOD WITH US. Because of these above scriptures and others and because of the revelations given the apostle Paul, Paul wrote this surety....Be sure that you all understand that all the fulness and all the redeeming operations of God, all dwell in Christ. Because of this truth we preach that all other people, persons, or names, religious ones and non religious ones that anyone of this world esteems or exalts above Jesus Christ who was God with us, those people are false prophets and they fit the scripture that speaks of the blind leading the blind.....JESUS CHRIST IS LORD. All things were created BY HIM and without Him nothing was made that is made....AMEN.
