---Tuesday, February 19, 2002---

The year of my redeemed is come.

Ye shall hallow the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubilee unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, ... and unto his family.

Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs and the earth shall cast out the dead.

The Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death: O death, I will be thy plagues; O grave, I will be thy destruction.

Their Redeemer is strong; the Lord of hosts is his name.

ISA. 63:4
Lev. 25:10
Isa. 26:19
I Thes. 4:16,17
Hos. 13:14
Jer. 50:34

The kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods ... to every man according to his several ability.

Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey?

All these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will. The manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. - As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. - It is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful. -Unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have commited much, of him they will ask the more.

Who is sufficient for these things? - I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

MATT. 23:14,13. Rom. 6:16. I Cor. 12:11,7. -I Pet. 4:10. -I Cor. 4:2. -Luke 12:48. II Cor. 2:16. -Phi. 4:13.

To him that soweth righteousness shall be a sure reward.

After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them. And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more. His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things; enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

We must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.

I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.

Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

PROV. 11:18. Matt. 25:19-21. II Cor. 5:10. II Tim. 4:7,8. Rev. 3:11.

God is faithful.

God is not a man that he should lie; neither the Son of man that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? - The Lord sware and will not repent.

God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the im-mutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath: that by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us. - Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator.

I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day - Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it. - All the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.

I COR. 10:13. Num. 23:19. -Heb. 7:21. Heb. 6:17,18. -I Pet. 4:19. II Tim. 1:12. -I Thes. 5:24. -II Cor. 1:20.

Refference: Noah Webster's Dictionary

Be strong and of a good courage.

The LORD is my light and my salvation: whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life: of whom shall I be afraid? - He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: but they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. - My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.

If God be for us, who can be against us? - The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me? - Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us. - We are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

Arise therefore, and be doing, and the LORD be with thee.

Our friend sleepeth.

I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.

If the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised: and if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins. Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished. But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.

It came to pass, when all the people were clean passed over Jordan, that the LORD spake unto Joshua, saying, Take you hence out of the midst of Jordan, out of the place where the priests' feet stood firm, twelve stones ... and these stones shall be for a memorial unto the children of Israel for ever. - This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses. - Witnesses chosen before of God, ... who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead.

Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.

Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. - Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him? - Heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.

The Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me. - God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.

He that overeometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. - There is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing. - He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.

Riches are not forever; and doth the crown endure to every generation?

Surely every man walketh in a vain shew: surely they are disquieted in vain: he heapeth up riches, and knoweth not who shall gather them. - Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. - Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

They do it to obtain a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptble. - We look not at the things which are seen but at the things which are not seen. - To him that soweth righteousness shall be a sure reward. - There is laid up for me a crown of righteousness which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day, and not to me only but unto all them also that love his appearing. - A crown of glory that fadeth not away.

Isaac went out to meditate in the field at the eventide.

Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.

When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; what is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? - The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.

Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. - This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night. - My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips: when I remem-ber thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.

How long wilt thou forget me, O Lord! for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

Every good gift, and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. - But Zion said, The LORD hath forsaken me, and my Lord hath forgotten me. Can a woman forget her suckling child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee.

Thou shalt not be forgotten of me. I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins.

Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus. When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was. - A woman ... cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David! But he answered her not a word.

What communion hath light with darkness?

Men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. - Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.

Darkness hath blinded his eyes. - Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

The dark places of the earth are full of the habitations of cruelty. - Love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble. The path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.

I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness

Ye were sometime darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light.

Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all ... things shall be added unto you. - He that spared not his Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him freely give us all things? - All things are your's: whether Paul or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come: all are your's: and ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's. - As having nothing, and yet possessing all things.

The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. - The LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will be withheld from them that walk uprightly. - The living God, ... giveth us richly all things to enjoy. - God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work.

Thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God. - Serve him with a perfect heart with a willing mind: for the LORD searcheth all hearts, and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts.

Behold, a greater than Solomon is here. - Unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, the mighty God, the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace. - My people shall dwell in a peaceable habitation, and in sure dwellings, and in quiet resting places; when it shall hail, coming down on the forest ; and the city shall be low in a low place.

He is our peace. - This man shall be the peace when the Assyrian shall come into our land.

For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; and they shall turn away their ears from the truth and shall be turned unto fables.

Of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. - Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching. - Looking for that blessed hope, ... the glorious appearing of the great God, and our Saviour Jesus Christ,
