This command with a promise is still reaching all the way from the first century to the last, from the first person to say YES to the last one to say YES. 
It’s for us!

BUT GOD.
Two of the BEST words in all of language to me.
BUT GOD!

The situation looks dead, hopeless, never going to turn around, never going to work out — BUT GOD. 

But GOD has raised the dead!  What could He possibly NOT do after that? 
Actually, I can think of one thing — take away your (my) free will. 
In that case, we would do well to surrender that will to Him, don’t you think?

There it is written on paper with ink! 
YESHUA is coming back!
This same JESUS (as we Westerners call Him) who ascended from the Mount of Olives near Jerusalem, will return just as He left.  It’s a promise!
I hope it’s within my mortal life, but if not, when He comes back, I’ll be back with Him. 

And you? 

Holy Hugs, Kathie
