Something More for Tuesday Since Post Time

I have a prayer request for IDOK’s.  My cousin, Scott Shockley (age 17), is at CHOA fighting bone cancer found in his right knee.  Please pray for comfort with the chemo, no infection, good counts.  He will have 30 rounds, I believe it is. I believe it is half and then surgery (hopefully to save his leg) and then the other half of chemo.  Very young, but has faith in the LORD.  His sister is at Auburn.  Hard on all his family.  Please have them pray for him especially now so that he can have some surgery on August 8. Thank you very much! Melinda

ABBA, this stuns us; it’s hard to form words putting ourselves best we can with him and the family; so much of life as they knew it interrupted, exploded even. Of course, I would ask that he be healed. That the cancer be removed; that he get to keep his leg; that he get to live joyfully. LORD JESUS, pray for Scott, pray for his family. And please send brothers and sisters alongside to hold their hands, to do practical things for them and with them. And this scheduled surgery, if it must be, make it textbook perfect. Thank You for hearing us. Amen and amen.

I asked for unconditional love and He said, ‘You already have it inside you, stop sinning against it.’

So I did.
And He did the rest.
To HIM be all glory and praise.

A quick re-visit – the first pass needs a clean up swipe I think.  So I did — actually all that amounts to is BELIEVING HIM and agreeing I HAVE SINNED and I am willing to turn — He truly does do the rest!!!

He is a miracle-working GOD!!! When the HOLY SPIRIT speaks – listen, believe and what is impossible with man happens with JESUS.

Love to you all — His Ministry to you,

You Have It.

I believe this post will be short and yet for those who need it so powerful!

I asked for unconditional love and He said, ‘You already have it inside you, stop sinning against it.’

So I did.

update: actually all that amounts to is BELIEVING HIM and agreeing I HAVE SINNED and I am willing to turn — He truly does do the rest!!!

And He did the rest.
To HIM be all glory and praise.

I understood exactly what He was saying to me.  When He took up residency within me at that moment when He saved me all I needed to live godly came with Him.  All I have to do is stop sinning against what He gave me — His very own righteousness.

And yes, even unconditional love.

2 Corinthians 5:21 New American Standard Bible (NASB)
He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

ABBA, remind us daily least we forget. Thank You, LORD JESUS. Amen and amen.

Remembrance

This evening at Satsuma First I heard a song perhaps for the first time and I am still thinking of the ministry it was to me. Here’s a link to listen via You Tube.  (some of the graphics in this particular you-tube I wouldn’t have chosen BUT even so I am so grateful for this song, for the lyrics, for what JESUS has said to me tonight. And it is my prayer that you will hear from Him too in it.

In Remembrance
(Ragan Courtney and Buryl Red)

In remembrance of Me eat this bread
In remembrance of Me drink this wine
In remembrance of Me pray for the time
When God’s own will is done

In remembrance of me heal the sick
In remembrance of me feed the poor
In remembrance of me open the door
And let your brother in, let him in

Take eat and be comforted
Drink and remember too
That this is my body and precious blood
Shed for you, shed for you

In remembrance of me always love . . .
Do this in remembrance of Me
Do this in remembrance of Me
In remembrance of Me

In remembrance of HIM.

re·mem·brance
2. Something serving to celebrate or honor the memory of a person or event; a memorial.
6. A  token expressive of affection.
via remembrance – definition of remembrance by the Free Online Dictionary, Thesaurus and Encyclopedia..

This is dovetailing with a book I just finished reading Radical by David Platt.

Heal the sick, feed the poor, let your brother in, do these things in celebration, in honor as an expression of our affection, our love for JESUS.

Luke 22:19 And He took bread, and gave thanks and broke it and gave it unto them, saying, “This is My body which is given for you. This do in remembrance of Me.”

ABBA, Thank You. Thank You, HOLY SPIRIT, for Your ministry to the Body of Christ today. My words are inadequate to convey this message to our IDOKs, I pray You will create it afresh and anew in them individually as You purpose for each of them. I pray for radical repentance and radical living in remembrance of JESUS to begin in each of us.
In these moments, I pray for Dori; we believe the surgery was successful and yet we hear from the doctors that there are yet uncertainties as to complete healing and You are aware of each of them; even so I am asking that You surprise the physicians and do what they cannot do. Please restore Dori to health and vitality. Kerri. I am continuing to ask that You heal her, completely. And Gene (Holcomb) comes to mind; since returning from Brazil something physically is just not right, please heal him and restore him. There are others, many others, recall the list with me, ABBA. Thank You for entrusting us here; sometimes like now I just fumble for words, what to ask, what is needed, what is desired for them all; it’s overwhelming to us; but not to You. Thank You, thank You. None of this surprises You or stumps You, You know just what to do in every life and You are doing it.  Thank You, ABBA, in the mighty name and in remembrance of our Precious and Beloved JESUS. Amen and amen.
