Is It The Laughter Of The Lord?

Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall a child be born unto him that is an hundred years old? and shall Sarah, that is ninety years old, bear?

Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?

And Sarah said, God has made me to laugh so that all that hear will laugh with me. And she said, Who would have said unto Abraham, that Sarah should have given children suck? for I have born him a son in his old age. And the child grew, and was weaned: and Abraham made a great feast the same day that Isaac was weaned. And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she had born unto Abraham, mocking. Wherefore she said unto Abraham, Cast out this bondwoman and her son: for the son of this bondwoman shall not be heir with my son, even with Isaac. And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight because of his son. And God said unto Abraham, Let it not be grievous in your sight because of the lad, and because of your bondwoman; in all that Sarah has said unto you, hearken unto her voice; for in Isaac shall your seed be called. And also of the son of the bondwoman will I make a nation, because he is your seed.

And as for Ishmael, I have heard you: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation.

And God heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What ail you, Hagar? fear not; for God have heard the voice of the lad where he is.

Thus saith the Lord, In an acceptable time have I heard you, and in a day of salvation have I helped you: and I will preserve you, and give you for a covenant of the people, to establish the earth, to cause to inherit the desolate heritages;

(For he saith, I have heard you in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succored you: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)

And God said, Sarah your wife shall bear you a son indeed; and you shall call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him.

And he said, I will certainly return unto you according to the time of life; and, lo, Sarah your wife shall have a son.

He that sits in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.

The Lord shall laugh at him: for he sees that his day is coming.

But you, O Lord, shall laugh at them; you shall have all the heathen in derision.

Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to heaviness. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.

Sorrow is better than laughter: for by the sadness of the countenance the heart is made better.

Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The Lord has done great things for them.

Gen. 17:17;Gen. 18:12;Gen. 21:6-13&17;Gen.17:20;Isa. 49:8;2 Cor. 6:2;Gen. 18:10;Gen. 19:17;Psa. 2:4;Psa. 37:13;Psa. 59:8;Jam. 4:8-10;Ecc. 7:3;Psa. 126:2

Abraham and Sarah laughed, but was it righteous laughter? Ishmael who mocked the weaning of Isaac was it a cause for laughter? After we humble ourselves, we will experience the laughter of the Lord and we will sing and proclaim the greatness of the Lord's judgment because the Lord is not playing. And the Lord worked it out for Abraham's which is for our good because we love God and we are the called according to his purpose. Ishmael was the beginning of the salvation package and Isaac was the end of the salvation package, which is sorrow being turned to joy and the joy is everlasting.

Everything is so funny nowadays, you see so much on youtube and television that makes you laugh, but is your laughter righteous? Is it any profit?

"Whereever You Tread Upon"

Every place whereon the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even unto the uttermost sea shall your coast be.

There shall no man be able to stand before you: for the Lord your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you upon all the land that you shall tread upon, as he has said unto you.

You shall not muzzle the ox when he tread out the corn.

Happy are you, O Israel: who is like unto you, O people saved by the Lord, the shield of your help, and who is the sword of your excellency! and your enemies shall be found liars unto you, and you shall tread upon their high places.

Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you, as I said unto Moses.

You shall tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shall you trample under feet.

But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God. And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray. And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering. And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses and Elias: Who appeared in glory, and spoke of his decease which he should accomplish at Jerusalem. But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: and when they were awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him. And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing what he said. While he thus spoke, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and they feared as they entered into the cloud. And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him. And when the voice was past, Jesus was found alone. And they kept it close and told no man in those days any of those things which they had seen.

Father, I will that they also, whom you have given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which you have given me: for you loved me before the foundation of the world.

And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receives whomsoever I send receives me, and he that receives me receives him that sent me.

Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father have sent me, even so send I you. Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end. And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him; Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God; He rises from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself. After that he pours water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded. Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, do you wash my feet? Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do you know not now; but you shall know hereafter. Peter saith unto him, You shall never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash you not, you have no part with me. Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head. Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needs not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and you are clean, but not all. For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, You are not all clean. So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know you what I have done to you? You call me Master and Lord: and you say well; for so I am. If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; you also ought to wash one another's feet. For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you. Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him. If you know these things, happy are you if you do them. I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me has lifted up his heel against me. Now I tell you before it comes, that, when it is come to pass, you may believe that I am he. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receives whomsoever I send receives me, and he that receives me receives him that sent me.

And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when you depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.

Deut. 11:24-25;Deut. 25:4;Deut. 33:29;Josh. 1:3;Psa. 91:13;Luke 9:27-36;John 17:24;Rom. 10:15;John 13:20;John 20:21;John 13:1-20;Matt. 10:14

It is already on your feet but shake off the dust that cleaves to you against that house or city for a testimony against them if they don't receive you. The Lord washed the bad dust off your feet with his blood. Amen.

"It WAS Very Good"

And they said, Arise, that we may go up against them: for we have seen the land, and, behold, it is very good: and are you still? be not slothful to go, and to enter to possess the land.

And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.

When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.

As you have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk you in him:...For in him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily. And you are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:

O Lord, you have searched me, and known me. You know my downsitting and mine uprising, you understand my thought afar off. You compass my path and my lying down and are acquainted with all my ways. For there is not a word in my tongue, but, Look, O Lord, you know it altogether.

Why say you, O Jacob, and speak, O Israel, My way is hidden from the Lord, and my judgment is passed over from my God? Have you not known? Have you not heard, that the Everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, faints not, neither is weary? There is no searching of his understanding. He gives power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increases strength.

What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? Know you not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwells in you.

Judges 18:9;Gen. 1:31;Gen. 2:1-2;John 19:30;Col. 2:6&9-10;Psa. 139:1-4;Isa. 40:27-29;Rom. 6:1-4;Rom. 8:11

Running after and trying to be good, fighting the air is not making you good but receiving Christ Jesus will make you good in the sight of the Lord. Looking good, and trying to be good or being good is three different things. All your righteousness was like filthy rags to God, but God's witness is that he made you very good through his Son Jesus Christ. God made you very good only in Christ. The witness of God is greater than man's witness. If your heart (your conscience) condemns you, God is greater than your heart (your conscience) and He knows all things. This is a rest for the people of God. Amen.

If I say this over and over again, I must say it over and over again, "Have peace with God through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ."

Do You Receive My Son?

He that receives you, receives me, and he that receives me, receives him that sent me.

Whosoever shall receive one of such children in my name, receives me: and whosoever shall receive me, receives not me, but him that sent me.

And said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receives me: and whosoever shall receive me, receives him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same shall be great.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receives whomsoever I send receives me, and he that receives me receives him that sent me.

As you have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk you in him: Rooted and built up in him, and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.

For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

He that receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward, and he that receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward.

By this shall all men know that you are my disciples if you have love one to another.

Matt. 10:40;Mark 9:37;Luke 9:48;John 13:20;Col. 2:6-7;Gal. 1:12;John 1:12-13;Matt. 10:41;John 13:35

The Lord loves his Holy Son, Jesus Christ and whosoever receives the Son is of God and is the Son of God in the earth: We are the Body of Christ..Amen. It might seem to you that you received me, but coming against me is not receiving Christ, that is what the hypocrites did to Christ. There is no compromise in Christ, we serve the Lord Christ, not the flesh. Remember the Egyptians? We love one another because we are taught of God to love one another.

The Walls Fell!

By faith, the walls of Jericho fell down after they were compassed about seven days.

And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his sword drawn in his hand: and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him, Are you for us, or for our adversaries? And he said, No; but as captain of the host of the Lord am I now come. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and did worship, and said unto him, What says my Lord unto his servant? And the captain of the Lord's host said unto Joshua, Loose your shoe from off your foot; for the place whereon you stand is holy. And Joshua did so. 

Now Jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in. And it shall come to pass, that when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, and when you hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall down flat, and the people shall ascend up every man straight before him. And Joshua had commanded the people, saying, You shall not shout, nor make any noise with your voice, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I bid you shout; then shall you shout.

And Jesus entered and passed through Jericho.

But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbor? And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side. But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him, and went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever you spend more, when I come again, I will repay you. Which now of these three, think you, was neighbor unto him that fell among the thieves? And he said, He that showed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do you likewise.

And it came to pass, that as he was come nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the way side begging: And hearing the multitude pass by, he asked what it meant. And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth passes by. And he cried, saying, Jesus, you, son of David, have mercy on me. And they which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried so much the more, you son of David, have mercy on me. And Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought unto him: and when he was come near, he asked him, Saying, What will you that I shall do unto you? And he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight. And Jesus said unto him, Receive your sight: your faith has saved you. And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise unto God.

And when they had gone through the isle unto Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Barjesus. Which was the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul and desired to hear the word of God. But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith. Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him. And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, you child of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, will you not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord? And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you shall be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand. Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.

And as they departed from Jericho, a great multitude followed him.

Heb. 11:30;Josh. 5:13-15-Josh. 6:1&5&10;Luke 19:1;Luke 10:29-37;Luke 18:35-43;Acts 13:6-12;Matt. 20:29

You know you have victory, but you must proclaim it, by a shout, giving the glory to the Lord. Where is the love? Don't put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in your brother's way. Rom. 13:14 Don't take the reward out of the Bible: God is a Rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Heb. 11:6 Keep calling on the name of the Lord to get your healing and your deliverance. Where is the love? Remember: The walls of Jericho fell, the walls hindered God's people from God's promises. Heb. 11:30. Don't stand in your brother's way from the truth; you are hindering God; people can turn from their wicked ways. We really don't know who will change; so commit it to the Lord. He will keep your soul in well doing as a Faithful Creator. He knows who did you wrong and vengeance is His not yours. Amen. All their lives they lived on a wall that would hinder the people from going through. That wall can be a grudge; that wall can be confusion or a lie, or that wall can be condemning innocent and just people. God so loved the world, He gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him shall not perish. And if God gave his Son for you, how much more shall he freely give you all things, that you need. God has a blessing with your name on it, with his name on it. And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Acts 2:21 Healing and forgiveness is the children's bread. The Lord knows them that are His and let everyone that is called by the name of the Lord depart from iniquity. God did not call you to hang around to make sure people get right, that's his business. Amen. The Lord called me to preach the good news. Keep it moving don't stop, No!

"Your Prayer Life"

I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. 

If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

1 Tim. 2:1-2;2 Chron. 7:14

I remember the song about the "Jones" your neighbors, they look or seem like they have more than you; saying that their grass is greener than yours. You really don't know what people are going through behind closed doors. Christians are all over the world, and we all should pray for those in authority in the countries that we reside. The United States doesn't have it any better, they have their own problems; they have to pray for those in authority too. Don't expect me to be here and you be there and use my peace of mind for your convenience. Get your own peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. One elderly lady told me, "They have their own knees, let them pray". If you are a Christian, should you have a prayer life? Amen.

What Is The Kingdom of God Really About? The Truth

His foundation is in the holy mountains.

For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

Abraham said unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. And he said, No, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.(Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which showed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom you have been now the betrayers and murderers: Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men:) Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore did he slew him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous. But now you seek to kill me, a man that has told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.

Nevertheless the foundation of God stands sure, having this seal, The Lord knows them that are his. And, let every one that names the name of Christ depart from iniquity.

For he looked for a city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.

And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal; And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel: On the east three gates; on the north three gates; on the south three gates; and on the west three gates. And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defiles, neither whatsoever works abomination or makes a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.

And these things will they do unto you because they have not known the Father, nor me. O righteous Father, the world has not known you: but I have known you, and these have known that you have sent me.

Pilate, therefore, said unto him, Are you a king then? Jesus answered You says that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth hears my voice.

Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? And they said, Some say that you are John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. He says unto them, But whom say you that I am? And Simon Peter answered and said, You are the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed are you, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood have not revealed it unto you, but my Father which is in heaven. And I say also unto you, That you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give unto you the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever you shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever you shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

But to him that works not, but believes on him that justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. Even as David also describes the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputes righteousness without works, Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.

God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.

And he said, Who are you, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom you persecute: it is hard for you to kick against the pricks.

According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust. And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry; Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief. And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

Psa. 87:1;1 Cor. 3:11;Eph. 2:20;Luke 16:29-31;Acts 7:52;1 Thes. 2:15;1 John 3:12;John 8:40;2 Tim. 2:19;Heb. 11:10;Rev. 21:10-14;Rev. 21:27;John 16:3&John 17:25;John 18:37;Matt. 16:12-19;Rom. 1:17;Rom. 10:3;Rom. 4:5-8;Heb. 11:40;Acts. 9:5;1 Tim. 1:11-14

Someone spoke against one of the prophets as an example of disobedience and I heard another speaking against the apostles of the Lamb as an example of doubting God and disobedience. Not realizing that the children of God are like unto the prophets and the apostles, and also the Lord Jesus Christ. Speaking against their personalities is killing them afresh for they are the foundation of the Kingdom of God or the Kingdom of Truth. You can't enter the Kingdom of God speaking against the prophets and the apostles and also the patriarch, Abraham. Criticizing that they were wrong about something that they did, is speaking against the Lord Jesus Christ's mission, His grace, and His mercy...Repenting like Saul for he changed his name to Paul - Changing his direction...Amen.

"The Child Has The Father's Blood"

Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except you eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoso eats my flesh, and drinks my blood, have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He that eats my flesh, and drinks my blood, dwells in me, and I in him.

This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that bears witness, because the Spirit is truth.

And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.

But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

As you have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk you in him: Rooted and built up in him, and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. For in him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily. And you are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: In whom also you are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ: Buried with him in baptism, wherein also you are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who have raised him from the dead. And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, have he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

Have in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he have appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;.. 

Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.

And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.

Thus says the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command you me.

I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth; Even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him.

Wherefore come out from among them, and be you separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you. And will be a Father unto you, and you shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

John 6:53-56;1 John 5:5&8;John 1:12-13;Col. 2:6-15;Heb. 1:2;Heb. 11:3;Matt. 23:9;Isa. 45:11;Isa. 43:6-7;2 Cor. 6:17-18

The world is even concerned about "Where are the Dads?" in the picture concerning the children. God made all things by His Son. So the world is testifying of His beloved Son, Jesus Christ. Who really is your Dad in your picture? The one that you received, which is Jesus Christ. He is your Dad, through the new testament in his blood. Because the life is in the blood of the Father. There is no disease in the Lord's blood line, which is God's blood. His DNA has no disease in it but is pure. Let's declare it and walk in it..Amen.

"You Are The Lord's Concern"

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

Thus saith the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command you me.

Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, you shall ask what you will, and it shall be done unto you.

Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? Yeah, they may forget, yet will I not forget you.

Like as a father pities his children, so the Lord pities them that fear him.

Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as you have: for he have said, I will never leave you, nor forsake you.

Rom. 8:28;Isa. 45:11;Heb. 4:16;John 15:7;Isa. 49:15;Psa. 103:13;Heb. 13:5

God the Father has priorities, what is first, what is second, what is third? that is why you must abide in his words. Are we prepared for that blessing? Have you been prepared of God to receive? You must be prepared to stand and to stay in God, after receiving your blessing. Are you prepared for it? Ask for the grace and the mercy to help you in time of your need, The Lord our Helper, commit your way unto the Lord, trust also in Him and the Lord will bring it to pass. What is the Lord's concerns for you? You might find out that what you are doing is His concern. No weapon that is formed against you shall prosper. God is for you, not against you. People who have gathered against you shall fall for your sake, because they are gathering against God, and against His purpose in your life. Remember the red sea? And remember the gainsaying of Core? What do we have but His word? not by power, nor by might, but its by His Spirit. And somehow Jesus came and brought to me the Victory, Oh Victory in Jesus, my Savior forever, My Hero. Isn't He a blesser?, the Lord is my blessing.

"Be Patient And Grow In Grace"

Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit. 

I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favor to men of skill; but time and chance happens to them all.

And you shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endures to the end shall be saved.

Let that therefore abide in you, which you have heard from the beginning. If that which you have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, you also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father. 

When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not where it came from: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom, And says unto him, Every man at the beginning do set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but you has kept the good wine until now.

But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.

In your patience possess you, your souls.

Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which do so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest you be wearied and faint in your minds. You have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin. And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks unto you as unto children, My son, despise not you the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when you are rebuked of him: For whom the Lord loves he chastens, and scourges every son whom he receives.

Knowing this, that the trying of your faith works patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that you may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation works patience; and patience, experience; and experience, hope: and hope makes not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commends his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.

You have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that you should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever you shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

Ecc. 7:8;Ecc. 9:11;Matt. 10:22;1 John 2:24;John 2:9-10;2 Pet. 3:18;Luke 21:19;Heb. 12:1-6;James 1:3-4;Rom. 5:1-11;John 15:16;Gal. 5:22-26

Don't forget where you came from. The Lord made the water into wine. Didn't you know you are like wine, that is getting better with time? Be patient, for He have said that He will never leave you nor forsake you. 

I seen people driving behind me and they would speed up to get in front of me...but the swift, is not the winner in God's eyes..Amen. Being faster don't make you more blessed, because chance comes to everyone. I will have my turn in my season..The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, we fight not against flesh and blood... The Lord says, You are a winner now or "more than a conqueror because He loves you"..Amen.

After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him. Now the Jew's feast of tabernacles was at hand. His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart here, and go into Judaea, that your disciples also may see the works that you do. For there is no man that do any thing in secret, and he himself seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, show yourself to the world. For neither did his brethren believe in him. Then Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet come: but your time is always ready. The world cannot hate you; but me it hates, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil. Go you up unto this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast: for my time is not yet full come. When he had said these words unto them, he abode still in Galilee. But when his brethren were gone up, then went he also up unto the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret. John 7:1-10 Amen, an example of the Lord Jesus, not having the pride of life.
