Hey, Y’all

I think I am accurate when I write that I am in the Winter of my living, and oddly it’s gloriously full, hence I am not here as often I wish.

1 Timothy 2. It’s Sunday’s text for Sunday School.

1 First of all, then, I urge that petitions (specific requests), prayers, intercessions (prayers for others) and thanksgivings be offered on behalf of all people, 2 for kings and all who are in [positions of] high authority, so that we may live a peaceful and quiet life in all godliness and dignity. source

A little KWT paraphrase here: First of all; since we have had the introduction, now we get to some doctrine detail. And we start with prayer. How many of you know that prayer is the first step to a healthy resolution — of anything? And how many of us know we do not have GOD’s permission to deem any unworthy of our prayers?

ALL PEOPLE.
All people need prayer.

I have no clue as to the author but the saying I like: ” I need the prayer and you need the practice.”

June 2 was pray for the President day. It was Biblical on Sunday and it’s Biblical today; our Text tells us so.

Who else in your personal world needs prayer today? Have you prayed for them? It’s not too late . . .  yet.

Me Too

Just today a friend of mine shared with her world via Facebook pictures of her newborn grandson.  I commented in part, every baby is a gift from GOD, and here adding, no exceptions. I know it to my bones.  And from there formed these words (and I wondered where can I share them?):

Did you ever want to say:
You know why abortion is such an evil? Because every baby, no exceptions, is a gift from GOD to this world and each one that is aborted is a thumbs down, return to Sender, no thank You, You suck in the Face of GOD.
 
Me too!

In this social climate in which we now reside, what do we do with this?

Mark 16:15  (KJV) 15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.  source

See that word creature? It snagged my attention. I looked it up in Strong’s Interlinear Bible Search.

Thayer’s Definition

      1. to make habitable, to people, a place, region, island
        1. to found a city, colony, state
      2. to create
        1. of God creating the worlds
      3. to form, shape, i.e. to completely change or transform

And so it does! The Gospel of JESUS CHRIST when believed and He is received, He within transforms people, places, regions, islands, cities, colonies, states. 

And that is why this social climate so hates JESUS CHRIST.

And now the question is do we obey the Text or are we in league with this present social climate?

Murders.
Mark 7 

Now this one would appear straightforward and exact, wouldn’t it? And it is.  But let us check; what does Webster 1828 have to say?
 Noah 1828. To kill a human being with premeditated malice.  

The killing of people with premeditated malice happens every day around the world. No wonder we need a Savior to redeem us and transform us! We are a depraved and unholy people! 

With a reading of Matthew 5 in context, perhaps we could agree that murder begins in the heart and that JESUS has said if we hate another, we are already guilty of murder in our hearts, even though we have not ceased their breathing.  

And then there is 1 John 5:13.

1 John 3:15  (AMP) 15 Everyone who hates (works against) his brother [in Christ] is [at heart] a murderer [by God’s standards]; and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.   source 

Do you know why Row v Wade was so important to the abortion industry? Noah Webster answers it for us: “The act of unlawfully killing a human being with premeditated malice” 
It had to be made LAWFUL so it could continue to be done without legal penalty. From the beginning, it has been murder because from the beginning man has known womb babies are people too.

Murders. 
Are we all guilty? Looks like we just might be either by heart or hand.  
As I said, no wonder we need a Savior!
I am so grateful I have the One.
Do you? 

Until Next Time ` ` `
