Deeper Fellowship... (9)

Hey, isn't that the guy that was on Nashville Star a while back?

I love what you said Evangelica....it's easier to be a human doing than a human being. That is cool.

And what you said Marty....if people think God doesn't answer prayer they must not be praying!

Have a good day everyone, just wanted to share this. It always blesses and encourages me when I see it~

Here is a very encouraging word for us today~and every day!

In the midst of this worldwide “shaking of all things,” what is God’s great concern in all of this? Is it on the events of the Middle East? No. The Bible tells us God’s vision is trained on his children: “Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy” (Psalm 33:18).

Our Lord is aware of every move on the earth, by every living thing. And yet his gaze is focused primarily on the well-being of his children. He fixes his eyes on the pains and needs of each member of his spiritual body. Simply put, whatever hurts us concerns him.

To prove this to us, Jesus said, “Fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell” (Matthew 10:28). Even in the midst of great world wars, God’s primary focus isn’t on the tyrants. His focus is on every circumstance in his children’s lives.

Christ says in the very next verse: “Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? And one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father” (Matthew 10:29). In Christ’s day, sparrows were the meat of the poor and sold two for a penny. Yet, Jesus said, “Not one of these small creatures falls to the ground without your Father knowing it.”

Jesus’ use of the word “fall” in this verse signifies more than the bird’s death. The Aramaic meaning is “to light upon the ground.” In other words, “fall” here indicates every little hop a tiny bird makes.

Christ is telling us, “Your Father’s eye is on the sparrow not just when it dies but even when it lights on the ground. As a sparrow learns to fly, it falls from the nest and begins to hop along the ground. And God sees every little struggle it has. He’s concerned over every detail of its life.”
Jesus then adds, “Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows” (10:31). Indeed, he says, “The very hairs of your head are numbered” (10:30). Simply put, the One who made and counted all the stars—who monitored every action of the Roman Empire, who keeps the galaxies in their orbits—has his eye fixed on you. And, Jesus asks, “Are you not worth much more to him?”

Php 2:1 ¶ If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies,
Php 2:2 Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.
Php 2:3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
Php 2:4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.
Php 2:5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
Php 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
Php 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
Php 2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
Php 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
Php 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
Php 2:11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Php 2:12 ¶ Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
Php 2:13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
Php 2:14 ¶ Do all things without murmurings and disputings:

1 Corinthians 1:9
For God is faithful , by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

Hi MeekOne. I remember when this thread was getting many posts a day by so many people fellowshipping with one another in Jesus ' name.

Proverbs 27:17
As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.

Yes, remember! Those were the good old days!! Did you perhaps use a different name? Maybe Lambkins? I don't know what happened to her.

Lambkins is on another forum 'Christianity Haven' were she is an administrator going by the same name if it's the person that I'm thinking of. When I used to post here I was maidinHisimage at the time. Good old days is right. There were thousands on at one time. I'm rarely posting anymore either but thought I would give a boost.

Ephesians 2:14 a
For He Himself is our peace ...

I miss so many people too, like JoyShirley and so many more. It would be great to hear of their wonderful adventures of their growth in the Holy Spirit again.

2 Corinthians 3:18
And all of us with unveiled faces, seeing the glory of the Lord as though in a mirror, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another, for this comes from the Lord, the Spirit.

James 3:17 But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere. 18 And a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

Matthew 5;9 Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called children of God.
