Good morning everyone

​Good morning everyone, how beautiful and glorious is this day the Lord has made!!  I know many of you may not want to RECIEVE vthat word, as today may not feel glorious. You may have major hurdles, hurts, and strife in front of you. If that is the case please turn to James 1:2-5, for comfort and clarity.  

The verse selection the Lord put on my heart this morning in study, is several verses, eight in fact.  I pasted them all in at the bottom, using the amplified version to provide those additional and explosive adjectives.  Also; turn to Romans chapter 5, so powerful and so often taught I think we sometimes miss the entire point. Through one mans sin (Adam), death was brought down to all of creation.  Death ruling through to Moses. Forward to Christ, through one mans righteousness (the Lord Jesus Christ) and through that He is the gift, the gift of His Son from Father God.  Through His act, as a man, He rained down LIFE for all, who choose it, to have eternal LIFE.  WOW right. 

The below selection speaks to our days, not the big picture, the granular moments. The why Lord moments; how about we modify that to But God. If not But for God... I can't oh wait a minute, But God says I can. I don't know what to do, I am uncomfortable with this situation... God doesn't say ignore, he says seek the truth, get uncomfortable, get to the truth and trust in Him.  Or, whoops I'm not good enough for His blessings; we do NOT serve a Lord that is works based.  He is not scoring our performance, even our sins once repented are forgotten. So those old tapes, even other people trying to assert your past; DONT LET THEM have power over you.  Say, "But My God... Fill in the blank. Thank You Lord."

The POWER, STRENGTH, and MIGHT the LORD has bestowed is there for us to utilize.  To take, it isn't like food in the refrigerator that will go bad. It is sitting and waiting for us to DECIDE on. What have you decided?

THANK YOU LORD, HALLELUJAH.  Stand in agreement w me today and rejoice in our Victorious Life.  His promises, His perfect painting, timing, and Hand in all things. Thank You Lord for our trials, thank you for our molding and shaping, and THANK YOU LORD for your Gift!! In Jesus Name. Amen

“THEREFORE, SINCE we are justified (acquitted, declared righteous, and given a right standing with God) through faith, let us [grasp the fact that we] have [the peace of reconciliation to hold and to enjoy] peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One). Through Him also we have [our] access (entrance, introduction) by faith into this grace (state of God's favor) in which we [firmly and safely] stand. And let us rejoice and exult in our hope of experiencing and enjoying the glory of God. Moreover [let us also be full of joy now!] let us exult and triumph in our troubles and rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that pressure and affliction and hardship produce patient and unswerving endurance. And endurance (fortitude) develops maturity of character (approved faith and tried integrity). (((( again cross reference this promise w James 1:1-5)))) And character [of this sort] produces [the habit of] joyful and confident hope of eternal salvation. Such hope never disappoints or deludes or shames us, for God's love has been poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit Who has been given to us. While we were yet in weakness [powerless to help ourselves], at the fitting time Christ died for (in behalf of) the ungodly. Now it is an extraordinary thing for one to give his life even for an upright man, though perhaps for a noble and lovable and generous benefactor someone might even dare to die. But God shows and clearly proves His [own] love for us by the fact that while we were still sinners, Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One) died for us.”  Romans 5:1-8 AMP
