Passersby

a you tube for you this 11th day of December 2012.

Have we considered that Joseph was just as much chosen by ABBA for JESUS as was Mary?

ABBA, thank You for knowing well and without flaw the servants to choose for specific works. Thank You for choosing our works for JESUS’ glory and our good. Thank You for yesterday’s good surgery report for Sheila; I ask for a steady and complete recovery for her. Thank You for good news received yesterday from others too. Thank You for the plans you have for us. Thank You for this season; I pray this year, ABBA, more of my celebrating will be holy and honorable. I pray to give the gift of Your Gospel wrapped in love, righteousness, peace and the forgiveness of JESUS the CHRIST to family, friends and passersby. And I am reminded in this moment of Sharron – You know her needs, You know the strength she requires this day for a safe and productive day; and it is for that I pray for her today. And others are coming to mind: Perry, Rosemary, Janet, Carol, Pam K, Pam M, Kerri, Cynthia, Betty, Brenda and You know there are others – precious and beloved folks, asking for their strength to be meet for this day, lavished with Your Presence, LORD JESUS, so tender, comforting and wise. Thank You, HOLY SPIRIT, for hearing and answering in JESUS name.

One Day

A late good morning my Friends.  It’s a cool Friday here.  But comfy inside.

Just something to ponder for the hours we have remaining in this day:

Matthew 25:31 New American Standard Bible (NASB)
31 “But when the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, then He will sit on His glorious throne. via Matthew 25:31 NASB – The Judgment – But when the Son of Man – Bible Gateway.

This is a blessed thought to me!

And before I go just a little Thompson trivia.  Our tree is up ornaments and all :) . Candles are burning. I so enjoy the fragrance of balsam and cedar. Just does me good. It reminds me of a dear, dear friend and cabin in the woods.  GOD is so good!!

Keep Braving the Dark with The LIGHT,
Kathie

Christmas Song # 12 *** O Holy Night ***

Just for the fun  of it (and since it is my birthday :) ) would you PLEASE leave a comment sharing which of these 12 songs so far is your favorite?

If you would like to review all 12, each is linked on page You Tubes

I don’t mind telling you with this one, I shouted, cried and clapped sitting right here before you and this computer screen. O Hallelujah THE SAVIOR HAS COME!!

The SON of DAVID, legal and HOLY heir to the Throne of David, is JESUS CHRIST THE LORD!!  (Matthew 1:1-18)

I’ve been studying for Sunday School this morning in chapters 1 and 2 of Matthew and I’m about to give away part of my preparing for class ’cause for sure at least one faithful IDOK (and Reader)  is a member of the class.

Per chance any one of us should be waiting and praying and waiting for ABBA to bring something to fruition I want us to ‘take heart’ today. Our ABBA, GOD and KING takes His Word, His Promises S E R I O U S L Y! Not one thing He ever says He will do, does He not do!

Just in two chapters alone in the book of Matthew is recorded by Him for us these words:

Chapter 1, verse 22: “Now all this took place TO FULFILL what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet.”

Chapter 2, verse 15: “He remained there until the death of Herod. This was TO FULFILL what had been spoken by the Lord through the prophet: “OUT OF EGYPT I CALLED MY SON.”

Verse 17: “Then what had been spoken through Jeremiah the prophet WAS FULFILLED:”

Verse 23: “and came and lived in a city called Nazareth. This was TO FULFILL what was spoken through the prophets: “He shall be called a Nazarene.”

Our AWESOME, LOVING GOD means what He says and says what He means and He makes sure it comes to be. So if you have come to the Word of God and He has spoken His Word over you and confirmed in your Spirit by His Spirit that He will do such and such; Honey, you can take that PROMISE NOTE to the BANK of HEAVEN and you will be rewarded the full face value written thereon!  You MUST hold onto it until MATURITY, and based upon the Character and the Word of our HOLY GOD and FATHER it will be so!! (If you don’t mind, let me point you to another [IDOK] post for more encouragement, Did You Check the Attic? ).

Oh, ABBA, this is so GOOD. Thank You. Thank You. And HOLY SPIRIT, I pray right now with my sisters and brothers that You will anoint me to minister Your Word and serve Your People on Sunday Morning; but not just Sunday Morning in Sunday School but anywhere and everywhere You will privilege me to do so. I pray to be accurate and filled with love for You and People always.

And as it has come to mind, I pray for Jessica, the young woman in Walmart last night and her beau, Joshua, that was so fun – thank You – I pray for them now; for strength and courage to do right, to trust, to wait and lean hard upon You as they seek to know what You have for them.  And not just for them but for these too – Praying for These – I am honored for the privilege of bringing each name before You this day. I know You love them, I know Your heart is for them, to do good for them and even through them for others and so I and we are entrusting them and their needs and even their wants to You and as always we include our IDOK Troops too for safety and protection and wisdom and right decisions and safe and sound homecomings. And there are other matters no doubt, many that are represented by every precious one who comes to read and pray at this screen.  I ask You, ABBA, in the Name and through the BLOOD and RIGHTEOUSNESS of JESUS to tend them, to encourage them and bring them up a step higher in fellowship with You today. And in particular Elaine comes to mind, comfort and bless and heal her I pray in JESUS NAME. Amen and amen.

Christmas Hope and Holy hugs, kt
