Our Father is so kind!

I love this verse...

 

[Easyrider]

Ephesians 2:10 . . .
HE has Created us anew in CHRIST JESUS,
so that we can do the Good Things HE
Planned for us long ago.

Psalm 78:72 . . .
HE cared for them with a True Heart and
led them with Skillful Hands.


GOD made us Creative so that we could Express
Ourselves in a million Different Ways-we’re Able
to Worship, to Sing, to Love, to Help, to Play Music,
to Make Things, to Think Through Problems.
But each Expression of our Creativity Needs
to be GOD-Honoring, because Creativity is an
Extension of a Characteristic of GOD.
We have a Responsibility to Reflect GOD’s
Image in Appropriate Ways.

Exodus 5:8
But require them to make the same number of bricks as before; don't reduce the quota. They are lazy; that is why they are crying out, 'Let us go and sacrifice to our God.'


The art of grace is the supply of straw

 

[Citizen of the Kingdom]

The old testement was heralded in with prophets thundering Divine justice but Jesus has significantly expressed the difference between the Old testement and the New.
​

Luke 9:54-56

​

54When the disciples James and John saw this, they asked, "Lord, do you want us to call fire down from heaven to destroy them?" 55But Jesus turned and rebuked them, 56and they went to another village.​

As messengers of Grace, being as Jesus, gaining back the hearts of sinners by the gospel of the tender mercy of God.
"How lovely on the mountain are the feet of them who bring good news"

Jesus came not to destroy all things but to save them "Many waters cannot quench love"​

1 Cor 13:

4Love has long patience, is kind; love is not emulous [of others]; love is not insolent and rash, is not puffed up,
5does not behave in an unseemly manner, does not seek what is its own, is not quickly provoked, does not impute evil,
6does not rejoice at iniquity but rejoices with the truth,
7bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8Love never fails; but whether prophecies, they shall be done away; or tongues, they shall cease; or knowledge, it shall be done away.
9For we know in part, and we prophesy in part:
10but when that which is perfect has come, that which is in part shall be done away.
11When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I felt as a child, I reasoned as a child; when I became a man, I had done with what belonged to the child.
12For we see now through a dim window obscurely, but then face to face; now I know partially, but then I shall know according as I also have been known.
13And now abide faith, hope, love; these three things; and the greater of these [is] love.

Psalm 34:5-NLT . . .
Those who look to HIM for Help will be
Radiant with Joy; no shadow of shame
will darken their faces.

1 Corinthians 13:12-NLT . . .
Now we see things imperfectly as in a poor mirror,
but then we will see Everything with Perfect Clarity.

Revelation 22:4-NLT . . .
They will see HIS Face.

We Gain Spiritual VISION by
Believing in CHRIST!!

“He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?” (Romans 8:32)

 

[Citizen of the Kingdom]

But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light.

1 Peter 2:9​

The Nazirite

1 The LORD said to Moses, 2 "Speak to the Israelites and say to them: 'If a man or woman wants to make a special vow, a vow of separation to the LORD as a Nazirite, 3 he must abstain from wine and other fermented drink and must not drink vinegar made from wine or from other fermented drink. He must not drink grape juice or eat grapes or raisins. 4 As long as he is a Nazirite, he must not eat anything that comes from the grapevine, not even the seeds or skins.
5 " 'During the entire period of his vow of separation no razor may be used on his head. He must be holy until the period of his separation to the LORD is over; he must let the hair of his head grow long.

The covering is representative of the covering Jesus of Nazareth provides. We are told not to take vows on anything from heaven or earth, the Nazirite vow is one that was placed on their own heads

13 " 'Now this is the law for the Nazirite when the period of his separation is over. He is to be brought to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. 14 There he is to present his offerings to the LORD : a year-old male lamb without defect for a burnt offering, a year-old ewe lamb without defect for a sin offering, a ram without defect for a fellowship offering, 15 together with their grain offerings and drink offerings, and a basket of bread made without yeast—cakes made of fine flour mixed with oil, and wafers spread with oil.
16 " 'The priest is to present them before the LORD and make the sin offering and the burnt offering. 17 He is to present the basket of unleavened bread and is to sacrifice the ram as a fellowship offering to the LORD, together with its grain offering and drink offering.
18 " 'Then at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, the Nazirite must shave off the hair that he dedicated. He is to take the hair and put it in the fire that is under the sacrifice of the fellowship offering.

The New Testement has Jesus as the gate that we may come or go.

Revelation 4:9-11-NLT . . .
Whenever the living beings give Glory and Honor
and Thanks to the One Sitting on the Throne,
the One who lives Forever and Ever,
the twenty-four elders fall down
and Worship the One who Lives Forever and Ever.
And they lay their Crowns before the Throne and
say, “You are Worthy, O LORD Our GOD,
to Receive Glory and Honor and Power.
For You Created Everything,
and it is for Your Pleasure that
they Exist and were Created.”

Revelation 5:11-12-NLT . . .
Then I looked again, and I heard the singing
of thousands and millions of Angels around
the Throne and the Living Beings and the Elders.
And they sang in a mighty chorus:
“The Lamb is Worthy-the Lamb who was killed.
HE is Worthy to Receive Power and Riches
and Wisdom and Strength and Honor and Glory
and Blessing.”


Our Worship of GOD is a Foretaste of Heaven!!

2 Peter 1:3-NLT . . .
As we know JESUS better, HIS Divine Power
gives us Everything We Need for Living a Godly Life.
HE has called us to Receive HIS Own Glory and Goodness!

2 Corinthians 9:8-NLT . . .
GOD will Generously Provide all you Need!
Then you will always have Everything
you Need and plenty left over to Share
with Others.

Matthew 6:33-NLT . . .
HE will give you all you Need from day to day
if you live for HIM and make the Kingdom of
GOD your Primary Concern.

By keeping GOD First Place in your Life,
All your Needs will be Met!!

1 Corinthians 13:4-7-NLT . . .
Love is Patient and Kind.
Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude.
Love does not Demand its own way.
Love is not irritable, and it keeps no record
of when it has been wronged.
It is never Glad about injustice
but rejoices whenever the truth wins out.
Love never gives up, never loses Faith,
is always Hopeful, and Endures through
every Circumstance.


The Gifts that Come from LOVE Are MANY.
Here are a Few:
(1) Forgiveness,
(2) Patience,
(3) Kindness,
(4) Love for Truth,
(5) Love for Justice,
(6) Love for the Best in a Person,
(7) Loyalty at Any Cost,
(8) Belief in a Person No Matter What.

Love does not allow for:
(1) jealousy,
(2) envy,
(3) pride,
(4) a haughty spirit,
(5) selfishness,
(6) rudeness,
(7) a demand for one’s own way,
(8) irritability,
(9) grudges.

Weeping may endure for the night, but joy cometh in the morning...

[Easyrider]

Matthew 5:9 . . .
GOD Blesses those who Work for Peace.

Isaiah 43:2 . . .
When you go through Deep Waters and
Great Trouble, I will be with you.


Peace is not Always the Absence
of Conflict....
GOD Calls Us to Pursue Peace,
which Involves Hard Work!!

Ps 91:7-8 A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you. You will only observe with your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked.
