Eph 3:16 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;

2Ti 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:


2Pe 1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.

2Pe 1:21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

Eph 6:20 For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.


Am 8:11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD:


Mt 5:6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

Mt 5:7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

KJV*

Eph 3:1 For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles,

Eph 3:2 If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward:

Eph 3:3 How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery;

Eph 3:4 Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)

Eph 3:5 Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;

Eph 3:6 That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:

Eph 3:7 Whereof I was made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God given unto me by the effectual working of his power.

Eph 3:8 Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;

Eph 3:9 And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:

Eph 3:10 To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,

Eph 3:11 According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:

Eph 3:12 In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.

Eph 3:13 Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.

Eph 3:14 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

Eph 3:15 Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,

Eph 3:16 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;

Eph 3:17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,

Eph 3:18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;

Eph 3:19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

Eph 3:20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,

Eph 3:21 Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

If We Could Only Listen


Dear Lord please be with us this day and please may Your Holy Spirit be guiding and protecting us in every thing that we say and do. Thank You for all of the great gifts and the blessings and the protection that You give us and please forgive our sins the same as we forgive the mistakes of others.

Dear Lord please open our eyes and let us see the injustice that is so prevalent in the society that we follow as we mix and mingle with Your Children in Your Creation while seeking Your Kingdom among the temptations of this world, that are driven by hate and greed and are not in step with Your Word nor Your Teachings, In Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.


KJV*

Mt 13:3 And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow;

Mt 13:4 And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:

Mt 13:5 Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:

Mt 13:6 And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.

Mt 13:7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:

Mt 13:8 But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.

Mt 13:9 Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.


How much plainer can the Word of God be?

Do we have ears to hear?

In Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen!

To Light A Candle Of Love

 

Dear Lord please be with us this day and please may Your Holy Spirit be guiding and protecting us in every thing that we say and do. Thank You for all of the great gifts and the blessings and the protection that You give us and please forgive our sins the same as we forgive the mistakes of others.

Dear Lord please lead us into the obvious insights of the parables about You being the sower and the seeds being the teaching of Your Word and Your Messages found in the Gospels and the stories of love as Your Seed can find places to root as we mix and mingle with Your Children in Your Creation while seeking Your Kingdom among the temptations of this world and please help us see how love can be the Dominant  Gene in our personality and character makeup if we but choose to pick a path that is dominated by Your Love, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.


KJV*

Isa 6:5 Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.

Isa 6:6 Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:

Isa 6:7 And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged.

Isa 6:8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.

Isa 6:9 And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.

Isa 6:10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.

Isa 6:11 Then said I, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate,

Isa 6:12 And the LORD have removed men far away, and there be a great forsaking in the midst of the land.

Isa 6:13 But yet in it shall be a tenth, and it shall return, and shall be eaten: as a teil tree, and as an oak, whose substance is in them, when they cast their leaves: so the holy seed shall be the substance thereof.


Lu 8:4 And when much people were gathered together, and were come to him out of every city, he spake by a parable:

Lu 8:5 A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it.

Lu 8:6 And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture.

Lu 8:7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and choked it.

Lu 8:8 And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bare fruit an hundredfold. And when he had said these things, he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

Lu 8:9 And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this parable be?

Lu 8:10 And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.

Lu 8:11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

Lu 8:12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.

Lu 8:13  They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.

Lu 8:14 And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.

Lu 8:15 But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.

Lu 8:16  No man, when he hath lighted a candle, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a candlestick, that they which enter in may see the light.

Dear Lord please may understanding be of the utmost importance to us as we mix and mingle with Your Children while seeking Your Kingdom among the temptations of this world and please show us how to know when we are understanding Your Word as You meant it to be understood even when we are in transition from hate over into love as we move into the understanding of Your Teachings and the seeds that You were trying to sow, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.

Ps 104:4 Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:

Ps 104:5 Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever.

Ps 104:15 And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face to shine, and bread which strengtheneth man's heart.

Ps 104:16 The trees of the LORD are full of sap; the cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted;

Ps 104:17 Where the birds make their nests: as for the stork, the fir trees are her house.

Ps 104:18 The high hills are a refuge for the wild goats; and the rocks for the conies.

Ps 104:19 He appointed the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going down.

Ps 104:22 The sun ariseth, they gather themselves together, and lay them down in their dens.

Ps 104:23 Man goeth forth unto his work and to his labour until the evening.

Ps 104:31 The glory of the LORD shall endure for ever: the LORD shall rejoice in his works.

Ps 104:32 He looketh on the earth, and it trembleth: he toucheth the hills, and they smoke.

Ps 104:33 I will sing unto the LORD as long as I live: I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.

Ps 104:34 My meditation of him shall be sweet: I will be glad in the LORD.

Dear Lord please lead us into feelings of security as we mix and mingle with Your Children in Your Creation while seeking Your Kingdom among the temptations of this world even when we must deal with the threats of the evil misunderstood knowledge that is keeping us away from Your Presence as we have to reconcile thoughts that undermine our feelings of security because our strength is not in Your Word as it should be, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.

The more a man is united within himself, and interiorly simple, the more and higher things doth he understand without labor; because he receiveth the light of understanding from above. --Thomas a Kempis


KJV*

Mr 12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:

Mr 12:30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.

Mr 12:31 And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.

Mr 12:32 And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he:

Mr 12:33 And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbour as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.

Mr 12:34 And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said unto him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that durst ask him any question.
