Second Chance

Gallery 1 Comment

I did wrong yesterday.

Ephesians 4

29 Let no harmful language come from your mouth, only good words that are helpful in meeting the need, words that will benefit those who hear them. 30 Don’t cause grief to God’s Ruach HaKodesh, for he has stamped you as his property until the day of final redemption. 31 Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, violent assertiveness and slander, along with all spitefulness. 32 Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted; and forgive each other, just as in the Messiah God has also forgiven you.
via Ep 4 KJV;CJB – I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, – Bible Gateway.

Does the passage give you a hint? It is more than a hint to me. 

Conversation.

I was not careful. I spoke what I did not KNOW. I even said I don’t know but it might be that they are doing ___ and planning _____. Even so it certainly did not fit the instructions above. 

Today I am contrite about it. Today I am purposing to remember this passage. It is the passage the HOLY SPIRIT brought to mind as I thought about yesterday’s conversation – what is worst He checked me yesterday before the words came from my lips. Obviously, I did not obey that Still Small Voice.  I am now reminded of another phrase from His Word – ‘these things ought not to be so’ (James 3:10).

I can only say thank You, ABBA. Thank You for correcting me. Thank You for loving me. Thank You for forgiving me. And Thank You for still another second chance. I love you, ABBA, in YESHUA’s Mighty name. 

The sun has climbed above the trees in our backyard and so this little girl is about to seek the comforts of air conditioning. :)

Signing off for now but not without some joyful gratitude.

Day 184 of 2014, a day to give Thanks.

Oh one more thing — Have a safe, happy, holy Independence Day celebration tomorrow. Give our Father thanks for this Nation. She is not what she used to be and perhaps she is not what she will yet be, especially if we can pray the Supreme Court to making more good rulings as they have done recently. PRAY! There is hope in JESUS name.

Oh, That’s Just . . .

The News Personality said: ” Oh that’s just Joe.”  And immediately a phrase from Scripture came to mind: “from the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.”

Listen. Listen for a while. And when you hear a similar stream of nouns, verbs and adjectives come from one’s mouth, then you should take note of this Scripture and know his/her verbiage is coming from within — the overflow from his/her heart. 

Luke 6:44 Each tree is recognized by its own fruit — figs aren’t picked from thorn bushes, nor grapes from a briar patch. 45 The good person produces good things from the store of good in his heart, while the evil person produces evil things from the store of evil in his heart. For his mouth speaks what overflows from his heart.
46 “Why do you call me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ but not do what I say?

via Luke 6:44-46 KJV;CJB – For every tree is known by his own – Bible Gateway.

The implication that I gathered from the News Spokesperson was ‘don’t be so critical, don’t critique what Joe says, don’t take his words so seriously.’

There’s a lesson I want to learn here, perhaps you do too.

I want you to take my words seriously. I want you to be able to take my words to the bank, cash the check and be richer for having heard my words. I want to be known as a person who says what she means and means what she says and I want my words to honor Jesus and bless you. And I want this to be constant. I hope no one ever says of me: ” Oh, that’s just Kathie.”

No, let it be ‘Oh, that Kathie, she speaks JESUS’.

For his mouth speaks what overflows from his heart.

Well, Friends. It’s Friday. The weekend is upon us. Yeah!! So enjoy. Plan something relaxing, something fun, something good, something helpful and crown the weekend with worship particularly on Sunday be intentional and seat yourself in a Sunday School class and stay for preaching! :)

ABBA, thank You. Thank You for this message.  And I pray to practice it well. Britton has come to mind and I am asking You to intervene in his medical care, to enlighten the doctors, to find the cause of his fever and infection; to not only find the cause but the cure. I pray You will heal this little boy. Thank You for this National Day of Prayer that is nearly spent. I am grateful for every prayer that was offered to You today for this Nation. HOLY SPIRIT, please call us to keep on praying for America. I get highly charged, ABBA, when I think about our condition. I get highly charged when I think about the corruption, the injustice, the lies, the fraud, the debauchery that goes on day after day in Washington and from shore to shore. I am so sorry. And without You to speak to me, correct me and help me I will surely despair under it all. I long for the day when YESHUA will return as King and rule this place and until then I invite You to help me be a part of the solution and not a party to the corruption. I pray for holy boldness to speak Your Truth; to offer Your Gospel every where I am every day and I pray souls will hear, will believe and be saved.  Thank You, ABBA, in JESUS name.

National Day of Prayer 2014

Gallery Leave a comment

The theme for this year’s National Day of Prayer 2014 is 

Investing in Hope… Transforming our Nation Through Prayer!

Investing in hope.  That sounds like a great idea to me! Immediately this comes to mind: My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus’ blood and righteousness. 

ABBA, we publicly acknowledge our hope is in CHRIST alone; in His finished work; only His righteousness and cleansing blood are sufficient to save we the people. Thank You  for birthing America. Please forgive us for corrupting it; forgive us for allowing a minority to close the mouths of the majority; and, ABBA, if we are still the majority, and even if we are not, I pray You will quicken us and save America. Thank You for hearing our prayers today and, HOLY SPIRIT, please inspire, call and empower every Christian in America to live holy and boldly and pray and pray until we the people are moved to repentance. I pray we will live 2 Chronicles 7:14; for if we do I know You will surely save this Land.

I happened upon a website today that I’d like to share with you. We are counseled again and again by leaders of the Christian Faith to pray for the Peace of Israel. It is Scriptural.

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:

via Psalm 122:5-7 KJV;CJB – For there are set thrones of judgment, – Bible Gateway.

How many facets of Peace for Israel can we pray for? Many. I hope you will carefully consider the PDF that I am attaching hereto. It can also be found on the website I visited today: Jerusalem Prayer Team. There is a Live Feed from the Kotel (Western Wall) on the website. It is a connection I treasure. 

HowToPrayForThePeaceOfJerusalem 

In the above linked PDF written by Dr. Mike Evans, among the many prayers offered, I found this one:
“Lord of Glory, as evil hearts devise wickedness against Your Holy City, I pray that You will cause their knees to bow before You. In the place where You have set Your Name, bring peace around Your throne. Even so come and bring peace to this earth.”  (page 5)

And this one:
“God of battles, You selected Jerusalem from all the cities of the earth as the place to establish Your name forever. You chose Your servant David as the leader and defender of Your people. Keep Your covenant with him today and arise to defend Jerusalem from destruction.” (page 4)

And one more I’ll share here with you:
“God of Heaven and earth, protect the schools and the school children who are being targeted by enemy terrorists. Watch over the families who trust in Your name. Provide jobs and sufficient income for every family and reveal to them that it is by Your mercy and grace alone so they may come to believe in You, the One True God and Your Son Messiah Yeshua, in Jesus’ Name!”  (page 8)

There are many many others. 

I hope you will find this book How to Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem as helpful and enlightening as I have. 

Blessings my friends.

ABBA, thank You for leading us; thank You for loving us, and thank You for giving us the privilege to pray for Israel, for the Body of Christ, and for the Peoples of the world.  As we gather here there are troubled hearts, wounded souls, illnesses, and diseases of sundry kinds, and so we come trusting You to heal and make new in Yeshua’s Mighty name.
