ISAIAH 53:4

For those joining me in memorizing Isaiah Chapter 53, here's the next one in line...Verse Number 4...

"Surely He hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem Him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted."



God bless and remember, many say this should be a 5th Gospel.

The Gospel of Grace



BAD MOM, I FORGOT YOUR MEDICINE LAST NIGHT...BUT NOT TONIGHT, LOL

10. Samson! Get your hand out of that lion. You don't know where it's been! (Judges 14:5-8)

9. David! I told you not to play in the house with that sling! Go practice your harp. We pay good money for those lessons! 


8. Abraham! Stop wandering around the countryside and get home for supper!

7. Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego! I told you never to play with fire!

6. Cain! Get off your brother! You're going to kill him some day!

5. Noah! No, you can't keep them! I told you, don't bring home any more strays!

4. Gideon! Have you been hiding in that wine press again? Look at your clothes! (Judges 6:11)

3. James and John! No more burping contests at the dinner table, please. People are going to call you the sons of thunder! (Mark 3:17)

2. Judas! Have you been in my purse again?!

And the number one biblical saying of mothers is:

1. Jesus! Stop working on that old wood and come in and eat! You'd spend your life on that wood, if your father asked ya to!*

* Please note that the word "spend" isn't used in the sense of time, but in the sense of "giving his all" "being poured out".



I thought this was a bit irreverent but when I thought about it, His Father
asked Him to and He did.  Thank you, Jesus Christ, for your Grace on Calvary!

I think this is enough for today!

God bless you all and spread the Cross!

TRUST IN JESUS


Trust In Jesus

by unashamedojesus
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding Proverbs 3:5
Trust-  firm belief in the reliability, truth, ability or strength of someone or something
Do you truly trust in The Lord? Do you have firm belief that Jesus is your Lord and Savior?
What will it take for you to truly Trust in Jesus? Even though we were still sinners he died for us (Romans 5:8) A sacrificial love that was given to us even when we didn’t deserve it. Is Love not enough to earn trust?
Jesus is The Truth , Life , and Way (John 14:6) The Living Word that became flesh, he revealed who God is and the plan for our lives. Do you reject The Lord because you reject truth? Why is Truth so difficult to accept? Because it forces us to reflect on our own lives?
What happens when we continue to lean on our own understanding? Can the blind lead the blind? Jesus opens the eyes of the blind, (Isaiah 42:7) once was lost and now found. To fully trust in The Lord is follow him with your whole heart and not lean on your understanding. Because our understanding can’t compare to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords in Jesus Name Amen


GRACE WON...IT IS THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO JESUS CHRIST

First Corinthians 15:1-4
Ephesians 2:8-9
John 3:16
Galations 3

Death + Burial + Resurrection = SALVATION

NO WORKS
NO DEEDS
NO BUYING OR SELLING
NO IFS, ANDS OR BUTS

IT IS GRACE AND GRACE ALONE IN CHRIST JESUS!

OCTOBER 25, 2016 VOTE MORALS AND VALUES NOT THE CANDIDATE!


Commentary By:  Gordon King
As the days roll by we get closer and closer to the U.S. Presidential election.  We must as American citizens make a decision, a decision to vote and a decision on who to vote for.
There are those who believe as Christians that they don’t need to vote, that it really won’t matter in the end.  They say that our hope is not in government, and I agree it’s not!  However, as believers we are to continue on living in the world until the return of our Savior.  We are not to stop living, not to go hide in a cave and wait for Christ’s return for us, but to occupy and do what the good Lord has put us here to do.
We are here on earth to be a light to the world, to make righteous and holy decisions, to do the right thing, and that includes voting for our leaders.  God will make the final decision, He will put into office whomever He chooses.  But, we are put here to perform the will of God on earth until His return.  We are to support leaders whose values fall in line with God’s values.
If you are a true believer in Jesus Christ then you will want to vote in whomever supports God’s values the most.  There is no perfect candidate, and in this election it’s not about the candidate but about their values.  God hates murder, especially of innocent unborn children, He also says that homosexuality is an abomination to Him.  So do we in our right mind as Christians, as followers of Jesus Christ then vote for a candidate that supports these things?!
God did not approve of His people killing innocent blood and sacrificing their children to idols, in fact He punished them greatly for it!

Jeremiah 19:4-9

Because they have forsaken Me and made this an alien place, because they have burned incense in it to other gods whom neither they, their fathers, nor the kings of Judah have known, and have filled this place with the blood of the innocents (they have also built the high places of Baal, to burn their sons with fire for burnt offerings to Baal, which I did not command or speak, nor did it come into My mind), therefore behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord, “that this place shall no more be called Tophet or the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, but the Valley of Slaughter. And I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place, and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies and by the hands of those who seek their lives; their corpses I will give as meat for the birds of the heaven and for the beasts of the earth. I will make this city desolate and a hissing; everyone who passes by it will be astonished and hiss because of all its plagues. And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and everyone shall eat the flesh of his friend in the siege and in the desperation with which their enemies and those who seek their lives shall drive them to despair.
Is this where America is headed for the innocent killing and sacrificing of millions of unborn babies?
The good Lord also calls homosexuality an abomination and a sin.

Leviticus 20:13

“If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them.”

1 Corinthians 6:9-10

Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, 10 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.
The U.S. government not only allows homosexual behavior, it endorses and supports it!  The good Lord has spoken and said that homosexuality is a sin and an abomination to Him, and that homosexuals will not inherit the kingdom of heaven.  Sodom and Gomorrah were over run with sexual perversion and sinful behavior, and what did He do to them?!

Jude 7

as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar manner to these, having given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

Genesis 19:13

For we will destroy this place, because the outcry against them has grown great before the face of the Lord, and the Lord has sent us to destroy it.

Genesis 19:24

Then the Lord rained brimstone and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah, from the Lord out of the heavens.

Ezekiel 16:49-50

Look, this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: She and her daughter had pride, fullness of food, and abundance of idleness; neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. 50 And they were haughty and committed abomination before Me; therefore I took them away as I saw fit.
Is this what lies ahead for America?  Have we committed such grave sins in the eyes of the Lord that He will take us away as He sees fit as He did with Sodom and Gomorrah?  We need to change our ways, to return to the morals and values of God Almighty.  A vote for Hilary Clinton is a vote against the morals and values of God.  It is more human sacrifice and more abominations to the Lord of heaven above.  A vote for neither candidate is also a vote for Hilary Clinton and so is not voting at all!
The next U.S. President will decide who the next several Supreme Court justices will be, and these justices will determine the fate of our nation.  They will bring in either godly values or ungodly values, righteousness or unrighteousness, more abominations to God or support of His laws and ways.
The government that we now have is anti-Christ and pro Islam, this will continue with Hilary Clinton as president and it will only intensify.  The persecution of Christians in America will increase, and it will whomever becomes president, however much quicker with Hilary Clinton.
We’ve already seen many Christians in America being persecuted for following their faith over the past eight years, this is just the beginning.  Not only that but president Obama just gave away the internet to the United Nations who does not have to follow our laws.  The United Nations is anti-Christ and pro-Islam, it won’t be long before we are censored to the point of not being allowed to share our faith online anymore.  Before we are persecuted for it, either fined, imprisoned, or both!
As a believer in Jesus Christ you have an obligation to vote for our next leader.  Don’t follow the world, follow God!  What does God say about all of this?  Vote how you will, as for me I will vote according to whomever best supports God’s laws, morals, and values.  Whomever best supports Christianity and our right to practice our religion without being persecuted for it!
The world is not going to get any better until the return of Christ.  However, we can slow the progression of evil in America by shining our light and doing what is right in the eyes of God!  Thereby giving us more freedom to share the gospel message and helping those in need.
There is a bible verse that tells we reap what we sow, and we have seen over the past eight years the reaping of what we have sown by voting in Obama as president not just once but twice!  A vote for Hilary Clinton is yet another vote for Obama and his policies to destroy America!
Perhaps America needs to be shaken to the core in order for people to wake up!  What will it take for people to open their eyes to the truth?  Just maybe four more years of Obama!
God bless my friends!  Maranatha!

MIRACLES

As a mother of 5 and knowing what it feels like for another human being to grow inside you, while may not always be fun and wonderful, to feel the child move, know when it stretches, has the hiccups and to actually be able to see it's little arms and legs is a feeling there are no words in any language to adequately describe how it feels.  You see, feel and touch a true miracle of God.  When you vote, be their voice because for those scheduled to be aborted, they have no one to speak for them.  I also hear this often (and I've said it myself) well, if they cut off abortions at 12 weeks, then I could agree but, if you think about what you just said, an 11 week, 6 day old baby has less value than it will the next day.  

We live in an era where Black Lives Matter; Blue Lives Matter; Gay Lives Matter; etc. and they do, they all do but more people screamed in horror at the death of the lion as a trophy kill but where is the outrage of about 60,000,000 unborn lives?  Vote for life for all!  For those who have had this procedure, it is redeemed on Calvary.  Accept that forgiveness and forgive yourself too.


God Bless the Voiceless Ones!

Pre-Wrath Rapture


God Bless You All and Enjoy!

NOTE:  This is a "theory" I was brought up on but didn't exactly understand it.  As I got older, it didn't make sense and I did a lot of research on this topic.  It is what is known as our "Blessed Hope."  We are NOT appointed to wrath so what else could this be talking about?  Did our early church fathers teach this "strange" doctrine?  Is it Biblical?  There are a lot of foreshadows in the Bible that point to it.  I personally believe it to be true but for those who have doubts, there WILL be a rapture, even if it's at the end of the tribulation but then wouldn't we know the day and hour?  Listen, study and pray.  However, if you still don't believe in this, it's not a salvation issue but you may miss out on some joy in this life by worry.  Live as if you will be raptured to be ready at all times but since we don't know what we'll endure before, be ready for anything.  It's bad out there and just getting worse day by day.  Put on the full armor of God!  Share the Good News!

You are so missed!

SONG OF THE DAY

Okay, so this too is a hymn but I really love this contemporary version by Chris Rice.  It is one of those songs that bring great joy yet makes me cry uncontrollably.  It was played at the most wonderful man in my life's funeral back in 1968.  To this day, I cannot stand the smell of carnations.  He was a GOOD man.  Not perfect but good.  I can't wait to see both of my grandparents again one day soon.  This is to honor the only man in my young life that actually cared about me more than anything.  Both were my anchors, my earthly port in the storm.  God knew what He was doing when He put me in that home.  So, here's to you PAPA, MURPHY HAYWOOD SCOGGINS!  You loved God and He called you home too soon for me.  Rest in peace and I will never ever forget you!


May the God of Grace Always Shine His Light on You!


You were so loved and missed, Papa!


HYMN OF THE DAY

It is Well With My Soul....


GRACE BE UNTO YOU!



WHAT WILL HE FIND?


Good morning;
While spending time in the Holy Ghost this morning, my Lord spoke to me and impressed upon me concerning faith and my own sometimes wobbly attempts in such. So I want to share a word on that and the scriptures He brought to me for today ….
“And He did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.” (Matthew 13:58).
Poor Nazareth. The people there took offense at their hometown prophet, Jesus, and as a result, Jesus couldn’t do much in that town “because of their unbelief.” Their lack of faith robbed them of Jesus’ “many mighty works” ….. Wouldn’t that be an awful thing to have said about your home, about your family, about you even? That “Jesus couldn’t do much in or through you because you didn’t believe Him” …. Have you ever wondered, ‘Lord, why don’t You do more in our church?’… Could it be because of unbelief?
Have you ever thought to yourself, ‘Why do you cause good things to happen in my friends’ life, but not mine?’… Could it be because your friend believes God more?
You may be a candidate for James’s blunt wisdom: “You do not have, because you do not ask. You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly” (James 4:2-3)
Faith is the key. God’s promises are activated by faith. Faith is not passive — it’s active. You cannot just stand there and say, “I’ll just wait over here. Maybe God will work; and maybe He won’t” ….


JESUS GREATEST GIFT BY ABALONEKID

 
JESUS GREATEST GIFT

No gift God has given us is more important than the blood of Jesus Christ. Yet many Christians do not fully comprehend the power of the blood.

Rev.1:
4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne;

5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,

6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

BY HIS BLOOD

"But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower then the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man". Hebrews 2:9

" Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us." Hebrews 9:12

" For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins." Mt.26:28 (See also 1 Cor.11:25; 2 Cor.3:6)

" For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified." Hebrews 10:14

" But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him." Romans 5:8-9

3. It causes us to dwell in Christ and He in us.
John 6:56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.

4. It is the means by which Jesus purchased the church.
Acts 20:28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.

5. It is the means by which Jesus becomes our atonement through faith.
Rom. 3:25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;

6. It justifies us and saves us from wrath.
Rom.5: 9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

7. It redeems us
Eph.1:7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;.

8. It brings those who were far away from God near to Him.
Eph.2:13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.

9. It grants us the forgiveness of sins.
Col.1: 14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:

10. It brings peace and reconciliation to God
Col.1:20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.

11. It has obtained eternal redemption for us.
Heb.9: 12 Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.

12. It cleanses our conscience from dead works to serve the living God.
Heb.9:14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

13. It is the means by which we enter the most holy place with boldness.
Heb.10: 19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,

14. It speaks a better word than the blood of Abel.
Heb.12:24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.

15. It sanctifies us.
Heb.13: 12 Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate.

16. It makes us complete for every good work.
Heb.13:20 Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,

21 Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

17. It cleanses us from all sin.
1 John 1: 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

20. It is the means by which we overcome the accuser of the brethren.(we don't plead His blood! IT IS ALL OVER US AT ALL TIMES!!! and the Devil and demons KNOW IT!)
Rev.12:11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

BY HIS BLOOD WE ARE MIRACLE WORKERS!

"But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower then the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man". Hebrews 2:9

" Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us." Hebrews 9:12

" For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins." Mt.26:28 (See also 1 Cor.11:25; 2 Cor.3:6)

" For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified." Hebrews 10:14

" But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him." Romans 5:8-9

BY HIS BLOOD WE WILL BE PERFECTED ONE DAY

Hebrews 12:
1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us 2 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.

THE CONCLUSION OF SALVATION AT THE "RAPTURE"

We are now blameless IN CHRIST, 1 Cor.1:8, not faultless!

1 Cor.1:
8 Who shall also confirm you unto the end, that ye may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

PERFECTED! (We shall be like Jesus)

At His call we will be perfected. 1 John 3:1-3; Phil.3:21

1 John 3:
1 Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

3 And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.

Philippians 3:
21 Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.

Chaim, least
