SOS

You know it is a SOS day (an opportunity to practice what you preach) when you wake up late after incessant dog barking disturbed your sleep and before you can get to the kitchen you stumble over stuff you didn’t leave out. And the first word of Scripture you read is

6 Your speech should always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you should answer each person.

via Col 4:6 HCSB – Your speech should always be gracious, – Bible Gateway.

Good morning Dear Friends!

Yep! That’s when you know Your Gracious Loving ABBA has snapped you back from the brink of a ruined day. :)

ABBA, thank You for Your Word and for accountability with Dear Friends and Loving Family! I pray for each who will come here today; that in You they will find strength to give an answer seasoned with grace to even the most exasperating soul they encounter today; even though they are tired and worn and stressed. I pray HOLY SPIRIT that You will refresh souls today at this page.
Kerri. Pleading for your intervention. Terri and family. For healing and restoration. Leslie. Continued healing. And others, ABBA. Many issues and circumstances beyond our control; we trust You in the Mighty Name of YESHUA. Amen and amen.

Feet

How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! [source]
And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; [source]

Yesterday we looked at the word foundation. And today, ABBA, has us looking at feet. And perhaps asking are our feet taking us to places of peace? Are our feet taking us to places to deliver His Gospel of Good News to all Peoples? 

ABBA, thank You for precious feet. Thank You for The Sure Foundation You laid from before the foundation of the world. Thank You, LORD YESHUA, for being our Foundation upon which You build beautiful lives. HOLY SPIRIT, help us yield to You for the building of our lives. And help us take responsibility for making sure our feet are shod with the preparation of Your Gospel and that we carry Your GOOD NEWS to all the people.
Again this morning I am remembering Leslie and asking that You reveal the cause and give the doctors a remedy for her pain. Terri and her family – I pray for healing; for lives to be made whole. And Others. Many Others. Emotional wounds – those inflicted with malice and those by neglect and preoccupation with other matters.  Chaotic lives that need the Gospel of Peace. Right decisions that are hard decisions. And thank You(s) for jobs well done. And Praise for abundant blessings. Praises that You work all things for good for those who love You and are called according to Your purposes.  Ray – grieving, not to circumvent his grief, ABBA, but that his grieving will bring his focus to You and what is his remaining mission; I pray he come to see that before too long. And for each Reader here I pray we all will take note of our feet today; that we choose carefully where we walk. And all this we bring in JESUS name. Amen and amen.

Nevertheless

Foundation. That’s the word from which I begin this morning.

But what is a foundation anyway? Here is a smidgen definition from my online dictionary:

foundation [faʊnˈdeɪʃən] n
1. that on which something is founded; basis
2. (Miscellaneous Technologies / Building) (often plural) a construction below the ground that distributes the load of a building, wall, etc.
3. the base on which something stands
4. the act of founding or establishing or the state of being founded or established

via foundation – definition of foundation by the Free Online Dictionary, Thesaurus and Encyclopedia..

And when you key in the word foundation at BibleGateway dot-com using the King James Translation 84 references appear.

Let me share one with you. Perhaps we can carry it with us today as we ‘build’ this day.

19 Nevertheless, God’s firm foundation stands, stamped with these words:
“The Lord knows his own,”
and,
“Let everyone who claims he belongs to the Lord
stand apart from wrongdoing.”
20 In a large house there are dishes and pots not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay. That is, some are meant for honorable use and some for dishonorable. 21 If a person keeps himself free of defilement by the latter, he will be a vessel set aside for honorable use by the master of the house and ready for every kind of good work.

via 2 Timothy 2 KJV;CJB – Thou therefore, my son, be strong in – Bible Gateway.

Nevertheless.

I like that word. It tells me NEVERTHELESS my structure right now: a leak in my roof, some holes in the wall, or bare floors; our FOUNDATION in JESUS THE CHRIST is sure and He will STAND and in Him so will we!

ABBA, thank You for speaking the word foundation to me this morning and thank You for where you are leading with it. Thank You for this particular message this morning. Nevertheless our situations in YOU we are secure. In YOU we are safe. In YOU we will build and we will live. Dawn comes to mind this morning. You know the reason. You know the need and I pray she will know for sure that YOU are a firm foundation even when the world is shifting. Leslie. YESHUA, I pray You will heal her. And others. Many others, ABBA. You see their faces, I lift them to You for help. Struggles of many sorts and oppositions. Weaknesses. Illness and diseases. In all these things I pray we will know You, ABBA, are our FIRM FOUNDATION.
HOLY SPIRIT, strengthen every Reader who comes to this page today; build up our love and trust that we will not dishonor Your Name. amen and amen.
