~ Joy in longheld habits

Thanks Jesus, for my Xdq verses habits. This is that dedication habit that I learned so long ago. 16 years ago, actually. I found the word when I was looking for a word to tattoo on our first potbelly pig, for his registration ID for the showring. I found it in Zechariah 14. It means "holy, sanctified, seperated unto You." So, I do, dedicate things to You... vessels....vessels of time, vessels of relationships, vessels of posessions....anything.

Today, as I have been doing for many years I received Xdq verses for my birthday 2008, until next year's birthday. In Your grace, You have written the Life of Your Spirit, eventually, on all those items, occasions, places and events that I have asked You to sanctify and separate with the dedication of Qodesh (Xdq). You are faithful in Your Holiness, Jesus.​



I have grown so fond of the stories You write to go with my dedication verses for the year ahead. Another year of life gone by ! Thanks, Jesus. It was so packed with goodness and hardships that I am ready to move on to new days.

A Sabbath Song
1-3 What a beautiful thing, God, to give thanks, to sing an anthem to you, the High God!
To announce your love each daybreak,
sing your faithful presence all through the night,
Accompanied by dulcimer and harp,
the full-bodied music of strings.

4-9 You made me so happy, God
I saw your work and I shouted for joy.
How magnificent your work, God!
How profound your thoughts!
Dullards never notice what you do;
fools never do get it.
When the wicked popped up like weeds
and all the evil men and women took over,
You mowed them down,
finished them off once and for all.
You, God, are High and Eternal.
Look at your enemies, God!
Look at your enemies—ruined!
Scattered to the winds, all those hirelings of evil!

10-14 But you've made me strong as a charging bison,
you've honored me with a festive parade.
The sight of my critics going down is still fresh,
the rout of my malicious detractors.
My ears are filled with the sounds of promise:
"Good people will prosper like palm trees,
Grow tall like Lebanon cedars;
transplanted to God's courtyard,
They'll grow tall in the presence of God,
lithe and green, virile still in old age."

15 Such witnesses to upright God!
My Mountain, my huge, holy Mountain!


Starting with THIS BLOG that took up the banner of in all things, as praise held high for Your Glory, Jesus. Last year's verses were fulfilled, as usual. It has been a privilege to tell of Your grace upon my walk in You. Some days, I struggle to find a word of joy, a moment of joy, to recall.... in the end, a work of praise that I am cherishing more and more, in Your Favor and continued growth pf my Spirit in Your's and in Your Joy revealed. I saw the rousting of an imposter from my world ! One who lied and flattered without conscience for personal gain. And, not until the LAST DAY did You reveal the whole of it to me ! Because today, I ALSO finished a journal volume, one that had Qodesh verses about the imposters who would come and try to do as Paul did and were beat up for ascribing Your power as Paul's "games" instead of any reverance for YOU as THE SOURCE OF TRUE POWER!

13-16 Some itinerant Jewish exorcists who happened to be in town at the time tried their hand at what they assumed to be Paul's "game." They pronounced the name of the Master Jesus over victims of evil spirits, saying, "I command you by the Jesus preached by Paul!" The seven sons of a certain Sceva, a Jewish high priest, were trying to do this on a man when the evil spirit talked back: "I know Jesus and I've heard of Paul, but who are you?" Then the possessed man went berserk—jumped the exorcists, beat them up, and tore off their clothes. Naked and bloody, they got away as best they could. 17-20 It was soon news all over Ephesus among both Jews and Greeks. The realization spread that God was in and behind this. Curiosity about Paul developed into reverence for the Master Jesus. Many of those who thus believed came out of the closet and made a clean break with their secret sorceries. All kinds of witches and warlocks came out of the woodwork with their books of spells and incantations and made a huge bonfire of them. Someone estimated their worth at fifty thousand silver coins. In such ways it became evident that the Word of the Master was now sovereign and prevailed in Ephesus.


Whew.​



It's a purer joy each new time that You reveal the purpose in the Word You ascribe to a dedication. I am almost taking them for granted in the faith You have helped me to receive for these Qodesh verses. The revelation is always there, at the end of the days You prescribe to reveal.​



Bless the imposter, in Your merciful grace and restorative presence in their life, Jesus. Let them apply the new reverance You will surely teach them in these days of breaking and stumbling. Apply Your mercy, also to me. Thanks for being my KING ! And thanks for the verses for this year, too. I am really looking forward to these, for Your Glory. Amen. For now, I guard them as Samson's Hair ! Next year, I will tell their story for Your Glory.​



By now, readers must think You and me are a bit teched-in-the-head, huh? No matter, I am not seeking the approval of those, only of You, Jesus. Separate me unto Your purposes for my life. Amen.​
