Justice is Severe

Image
  ' Behold then the kindness and severity of God; to those who fell, severity, but to you, God’s kindness, if you continue in His kindness; otherwise you also will be cut off.' Romans 11:22 (NASB) In severity is a message, Your message to those you have called, a message of love and correction. Darkness needs light. Immorality needs to be confronted. That's God's mercy. That's the Gospel. God's Goodness.  There is Balance and Order in the Kingdom. There should be restored respect, humility, and fear of God from those that fall away. My prayers are for the nation and the images I still have of our political leaders cheering victory over passing legislation last year for full term abortions. I pray for forgiveness for these. Legalizing death of innocence is immoral to a God that's Word brings Life. God loves us. He wakes us up to get our attention first, to tell us what we need to know and do. Like balanced scales, He is patient with us. but no...

' You will not be afraid of the terror by night, or of the arrow that flies by day;       Of the pestilence that stalks in darkness, or of the destruction that lays waste at noon.' Psalm 91:5-6 (NASB) Dear Father Thank you for Your Word. Your Word gives me comfort and Your Spirit protects me. Your Word reminds me to not fear the thief by night. Thank you for Your Guardian and Ministering Angels. Your Word and Spirit strengthens me when I am in battle by day. I am blessed with and surrounded by loving family and caring friends that want to keep me safe. I know that whatever happens to me it is done by Your will so I will not be afraid. Your Love is here. May all sinners find the Love of Christ and come to find You on Your Mercy seat. I pray for the President and my country. Bind the enemy. Bring to justice those that break the law and choose to live opposed to Your will and way. We've messed things up beyond repair. We need You now more than ever Lo...

Polished Silver

' Such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.' 1 Corinthians 6:11 (NASB D ear Father Thank you for Your Word. Weren't we all such as those, children of the wrath? It is good to consider that fact from time to time. And doesn't what You have done for us make Your Grace even more magnificent in conversion, pardon, justification, and salvation?  Yes. For You washed me clean, not as to be cleansed for my filthiness that is without but from the sin living in me. I am washed in the blood of Christ, and sanctified and polished as silver through the powerful Holy Spirit and justified through the righteousness of Christ Jesus. Hallelujah! Thank you Father, Son and Holy Ghost. In Jesus's name. Amen. Source: 'Drummingthemessagehome', May 12, 2020 blog post.

Silver Maple

' And Jacob took fresh rods of white poplar, almond-tree, and maple; and peeled off white stripes in them, uncovering the white which was on the rods.' Genesis 30:37 (DARBY) Dear Father Thank you for Your Word. Just as you did for Jacob you will do for others. You are not a respecter of persons. You are a blessing to those who find You and always find a way to bring peace and comfort those who follow You. Your ways are just and true and You will plead my case when I am feeling oppressed. Your ways are righteous and even though at times I may not understand them, I will still honor You and obey. Whatever You say I will do. You say 'follow me' and show me the way. You say 'don't question My ways', just do it.  So, I've learned to trust in You.  Peel off white strips on the branches and put the speckled branches before the herd so that they might have speckled offspring? That seems illogical but that's exactly what Jacob did and...

Lord, Forgiveness

Image
  'He told them: The Scriptures say that the Messiah must suffer, then three days later he will rise from death.  They also say that all people of every nation must be told in my name to turn to God, in order to be forgiven. So beginning in Jerusalem,' Luke 24:46-47 (CEV)  Dear Father Thank you for Your Word. Through Your Word we find Old Testament prophesy of Christ, who lived and died and rose from the dead three days later. Christ fulfilled it all. And on the day He arose He appeared in a miraculous way and Luke described what Christ did and said in the New Testament. Christ told his disciples to go and preach repentance and forgiveness to every nation and to begin with Jerusalem.  Where would we be without forgiveness? Lord, forgive us. In Your name, we forgive those that have sinned against us.  Thank you for that form of peace. Thank you for that form of healing. Thank you for that act of pure love. We love You Lord. Through You Lord we...

Silver Bullet

' Be well balanced and always alert, because your enemy, the devil, roams around incessantly, like a roaring lion looking for its prey to devour. '  1 Peter 5:8 (TPT) Dear Father, Thank you for Your Word. Father, Your Word is so powerful and this is my silver bullet go to scripture when times get tough. Whenever I keep my eyes on You and bring my problems to You it seems that the enemy is disarmed and cannot attack me with depression or discouragement. Lord, Your Spirit lifts me up when I study and pray. I am so grateful for Your Word that teaches me how to stay balanced and reminds me to stay alert. Thank you for exposing the evils that lurk around me. With You I can stand firm and face it and in You I can be strong and stay safely protected behind Your Shield of Faith. Thank you for Your blessings. Thank you for your encouragement. Thank you for Your Powerful Spirit and Your Healing touch. In Jesus's name. Amen.  Source: 'Drummingthemessagehome; Ma...

Silver Cord

Image
'So before the silver cord is snapped and the golden bowl is shattered: before the earthen jar is smashed at the spring and the wheel at the well is broken—before the dust returns to the earth that gave it and the spirit-breath returns to God who breathed it, let us remember our Creator.' Ecclesiastes 12:6-7 (VOICE) Dear Father Thank you for Your Word. Thank you for Your Spirit. Thank you for Your Son. We pray for the elderly and the youth.  In the elderly, you give us this description of what happens during death. We pray for the spinal cord and the bone marrow, the heart, the blood the arteries and the vessels, and the bones and the muscles and the brain. We pray for the elderly that their pain be relieved and that their inflammation be healed in Jesus name. For the young and for the old we pray for their mobility. Send angels to surround them so that they might not fall. Pour Your healing oil over their bodies so that all infirmity, including all mental illn...
