1 Corinthians, 2021, Gospel of Matthew, Prayer Requests

Wouldn’t it be good?

Leave a comment

We are here tonight thinking it would be really good if the Body of Christ, the Remnant, would pray for Healthcare Workers losing their jobs because they made an informed decision about their own health care.
Could we, would we think about what we would need in their situations and pray earnestly for those things, that The LORD of Heaven will provide those very things to them?
And as we pray may it be that HOLY SPIRIT will lead those who can to reach out and help as He provides means and opportunity.

Harried and Helpless – Not!

Leave a comment

Matthew 9:36 Complete Jewish Bible
36 When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them because they were harried and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.  source

This is an avenue under construction; let me give you what I have so far.

How does GOD see people?

Clearly here He sees people who have yet to come to Him for salvation and relationship as sheep without a shepherd; as harried and helpless. 
What is harried, anyway? 

Harried people are marked by disturbance, distress, exhaustion due to demands, criticism, harassment. 
Battered and buffeted. source

That’s well descriptive, isn’t it? 

And helpless too.

Sheep without a Shepherd.

No wonder JESUS came. 
He could not bear to see us without help and hope. 

What is it like for sheep without a shepherd?

Allow me to list what little I know and then let me invite you to seek THE SHEPHERD for what more He has to say to you. 

Sheep with no shepherd have
no protection from predators
no protection from the elements (wind, rain, heat, cold, etc.)
no help finding food or water
no healing from parasites, nose flies, and other injuries and diseases.

How does that translate to people without JESUS?

No defense against the accusations of the evil one
No shelter – no refuge from the coming storm, or eternal damnation because of sin
No Healer for all the harried-ness in this world
No Helper with the buzzing in our heads

What would you add to that list? 

Do YOU have The Shepherd?

Is Psalm 23 YOUR Psalm?

First Question

Leave a comment

Where are you? 

When I ask this question it is most often because I don’t know where someone is; I am asking to locate them. 

Did you know that was the FIRST question GOD asked Adam? Unlike me He was not asking because He didn’t know but because Adam and Eve needed to know WHERE they were. 

Did you know GOD did not ask the first question?

Do you know who did ask the first question? 

Genesis 3.

An informative chapter. 
Perhaps you would read it.  HERE. 

So what was the first question and who asked it? 
Do you know? 
Do you want to know?
And if you don’t want to know, what does that say? 

Just curious.
