You Special

5 Now therefore, if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine. 6 And you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’  . . .

via Ex 19 NKJV – Israel at Mount Sinai – In the third – Bible Gateway.

A special treasure to Me above all people.

Yes, Yahweh was talking to Israel when these words were penned by Moses in the Book of Exodus.

But who else was/is The GREAT I AM talking to here?

Galatians 3:29 New King James Version (NKJV)

29 And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

via Galatians 3:29 NKJV – And if you are Christ’s, then you are – Bible Gateway.

Does that help explain?

Who do you see in verse 29 of Galatians 3? Who is Abraham’s seed? Who are the heirs?

So tell me, is one of those ‘yous’ among that ‘Special Treasure’ YOU? Why? Or why not?

So what does that mean to you? Do you anticipate some soon coming changes as you embrace this truth? 

Just thinking . . . hope you are too now.  

Blessings to you Dear Friends for a prodigious weekend :)  +++

Remember YOU have the God-given RIGHT to do right in this wrong world!

Attended

Today I am sharing with you that I am specifically praying for Poppins. She’s a beautiful young woman, star basketball player, having knee surgery on Thursday. I am praying for textbook perfect surgery and recovery – a return to the court for this precious young woman. And there are others. No doubt you have specific people and matters that you are desperate for DADDY GOD to attend for you.  Ask Him. He will hear. And He will answer us. 

Psalm 34 New King James Version (NKJV)

14 Depart from evil and do good;

Seek peace and pursue it.

15 The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,

And His ears are open to their cry.

via Psalm 34:14-16 NKJV – Depart from evil and do good; Seek – Bible Gateway.

And there it is. The key to our prayers being heard and attended by our DADDY GOD – Creator of the Universe.

Thank You, ABBA, for this WORD to direct us, correct us and build our faith to pray. I personally ask for renewed strength and will to depart from evil, to do good, to seek peace, to pursue peace, to pursue You will all my heart, soul, mind and strength. Thank You that Your Eyes are upon us; that Your Ears are open to us, that NOTHING escapes Your loving attention concerning us. And so I am asking You for surgeons well rested and fully skilled for Poppins and for accurate and textbook perfect restoration of Poppins’ knee. I am asking You to return her to the basketball court with no ill residue of this injury and more than that for a deeper, stronger, unbreakable fellowship with You that will bring You glory.  And there are others particularly that I am bringing to You right now – You know their names, You know the cries of their hearts and mine for them. Thank You for hearing and thank You for answering. Still I remember Israel, asking for peace for them and for all their enemies to be defeated. And the evil attacks today in Egypt and Libya. I trust You to uncover and bring to pass the justice that honors You. And not only justice, but comfort and consolation for each violated soul, particularly family members of the Four Americans who have been slain. We need You. I pray for You to make clear the proper response to confront and destroy this evil. ABBA, again I remind You of Abraham’s request and I fashion mine likewise, asking You to save America. Asking You to raise up men and women, boys and girls, that will surrender to labor with You to bring revival, repentance and restoration to this blessed Nation. ABBA, please remove the ungodly that will not repent and raise up moral leaders with integrity and common sense I pray. And before I sign off here I thank You for each reader who comes to this page, I speak strength and peace and wisdom over them that they may walk in each today for Your glory and their own well-being. Thank You, ABBA. Thank You for loving us and thank You for enabling us to love You. And we do love You and we pray to love You more and more.

Blessings, Friends +++

See What I Mean?

Journey had a lot to say to me today and I have only gotten as far as the opening Scripture. Here is what I mean.

Psalm 101:2 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

2 I will pay attention to the way of integrity.   . . .  I will live with a heart of integrity in my house.

via Ps 101:2 HCSB – I will pay attention to the way of – Bible Gateway.

In truth, I did not live that way yesterday in my house. Most likely I would have at your house. See what I mean?  Of all the people on the planet, it is our families that would most benefit from our integrity. Glad I was home alone yesterday. :)  Seriously, living unglued – without integrity – is sin. And we need to stop it. And for today we can. Scripture tells us so. 

Philippians 4:13 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

13 I am able to do all things through Him who strengthens me.

via Phil 4:13 HCSB – I am able to do all things through Him – Bible Gateway.

And tomorrow? Let’s do today first.  :)

Today I am praying for Tavarie. He has some health issues. Would you join me in praying for him too?

First, I must thank You for mercy and forgiveness and loving correction. Thank You, Father. Thank You for Your strength to live with integrity today. Thank You.  And we come bringing Tavarie today; asking for a remedy and for resolution of these health issues and all matters concerning Tavarie. We are not privy to Tavarie’s life but You are and we are grateful for the privilege of praying for him.  Thank You. And there are others. And so I come this morning with these names filling my mind at this moment, names and situations, conflicts and issues needing attention and I ask for Your Touch in each. And I pray for my dear Friends who come here to faithfully read and pray, thanking You for them and for the strength and help You will give to each one of them this day. 

Blessings, Friends +++
