For Me and My Household-We Will Serve the LORD

-
"Now fear the LORD and serve him with all faithfulness. Throw away the gods your forefathers worshiped beyond the River and in Egypt, and serve the LORD. But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your forefathers served beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD." Joshua 24:14-15 NIV



God is Love 1John 4:16

The Priestly Blessing The Lord said to Moses, “Tell Aaron and his sons, ‘This is how you are to bless the Israelites. Say to them:   “‘“The Lord bless you      and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you      and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you      and give you peace.”’   “So they will put my name on the Israelites, and I will bless them.”

He has the Whole World in His Hand

God Has you in His hand 1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. 3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day. 6 And God said, “Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water.” 7 So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it. And it was so. 8 God called the vault “sky.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day. 9 And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.” And it was so. 10 God called the dry ground “land,” and the gathered waters he called “seas.” And God saw that it was good...

Jesucristo --Only In Jesus Christ

Por la palabra de la paz en Jesucristo--By the Word of Peace in Jesus Christ o "¿QUIEN DESCENDERA AL ABISMO?" (esto es, para subir a Cristo de entre los muertos).  8 Mas, ¿qué dice? CERCA DE TI ESTA LA PALABRA, EN TU BOCA Y EN TU CORAZON, es decir, la palabra de fe que predicamos:   que si confiesas con tu boca a Jesús por Señor, y crees en tu corazón que Dios le resucitó de entre los muertos, serás salvo;   porque con el corazón se cree para justicia, y con la boca se confiesa para salvación.  Pues la Escritura dice: TODO EL QUE CREE EN EL NO SERA AVERGONZADO.   Porque no hay distinción entre judío y griego, pues el mismo Señor es Señor de todos, abundando en riquezas para todos los que le invocan;   porque: TODO AQUEL QUE INVOQUE EL NOMBRE DEL SEÑOR SERA SALVO.   ¿Cómo, pues, invocarán a aquel en quien no han creído? ¿Y cómo creerán en aquel de quien no han oído? ¿Y cómo oirán sin haber quien les predique? ...

EIGHT DAYS OF PRAYERS

-
by the National Council of the Churches of Christ   The themes of the eight days There is a journey of faith that can be discerned in the themes of the eight days. From its first beginnings in the upper room, the early Christian community experiences the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, enabling it to grow in faith and unity, in prayer and in action, so that it truly becomes a community of the Resurrection, united with Christ in his victory over all that divides us from each other and from him. The church in Jerusalem then itself becomes a beacon of hope, a foretaste of the heavenly Jerusalem, called to reconcile not just our churches but all peoples. This journey is guided by the Holy Spirit, who brings the early Christians to the knowledge of the truth about Jesus Christ, and who fills the early Church with signs and wonders, to the amazement of many. As they continue their journey, the Christians of Jerusalem gather with devotion to listen to the Word of God set forth in the apo...

John 17:6-26 New International Version (NIV)  Jesus Prays for His Disciples  "I have revealed you to those whom you gave me out of the world. They were yours; you gave them to me and they have obeyed your word. Now they know that everything you have given me comes from you. For I gave them the words you gave me and they accepted them. They knew with certainty that I came from you, and they believed that you sent me. I pray for them. I am not praying for the world, but for those you have given me, for they are yours. All I have is yours, and all you have is mine. And glory has come to me through them. I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of your name, the name you gave me, so that they may be one as we are one. While I was with them, I protected them and kept them safe by that name you gave me. None has been lost except the one doomed to destruction so that Scripture ...

1. I will break down your stubborn pride. Leviticus 26:19 2. The pride of your heart has deceived you, you who live in the clefts of the rocks and make your home on the heights, you who say to yourself, ‘Who can bring me down to the ground?’ Obadiah 1:3 3. His pride led to his downfall. He was unfaithful to the LORD his God. 2 Chronicles 26:16 4. In his pride the wicked does not seek him; in all his thoughts there is no room for God. Psalm 10:4 5. For the sins of their mouths, for the words of their lips, let them be caught in their pride. Psalm 59:12 6. When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom. Proverbs 11:2 7.

THE PROMISE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT-ASCENSION OF JESUS CHRIST

LUKE... I wrote about all that Jesus did and taught from the beginning until the day when He was taken up to heaven, after giving instructions through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen. After His suffering he presented himself alive to them by many convincing proofs, appearing to them over the course of forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God. While staying with them, he ordered them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait there for the promise of the Father . ‘This’, he said, ‘is what you have heard from me; for John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with* the Holy Spirit not many days from now.’ So when they had come together, they asked him, ‘Lord, is this the time when you will restore the kingdom to Israel?’ He replied, ‘It is not for you to know the times or periods that the Father has set by his own authority . But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samari...

Wisdom Calls

God is Love Wisdom’s Call Proverbs  8   Does not wisdom call out?      Does not understanding raise her voice? 2  At the highest point along the way,      where the paths meet, she takes her stand; 3  beside the gate leading into the city,      at the entrance, she cries aloud: 4  “To you, O people, I call out;      I raise my voice to all mankind. 5  You who are simple, gain prudence;      you who are foolish, set your hearts on it. 6  Listen, for I have trustworthy things to say;      I open my lips to speak what is right. 7  My mouth speaks what is true,      for my lips detest wickedness. 8  All the words of my mouth are just;      none of them is crooked or perverse. 9  To the discerning all of them are right;      they are up...

Colorado Fires 'Like Armageddon' By Trevor Freeze http://www.billygraham.org/articlepage.asp?articleid=8793 Chaplains Encourage Those Struggling With Fire Fallout July 10, 2012 - Unlike hurricanes and tornadoes, there is no finality to a wildfire. Billy Graham Rapid Response Team chaplains have been ministering in this highly unpredictable disaster aftermath, where the Lord has been bringing people back to Him.   "That's God's hand on His people because He's not willing for one to be lost." — Pat Geyer, RRT chaplain in Colorado Springs Natural disasters come in all shapes, sizes and impacts. But after deploying to the Waldo Canyon Fire near Colorado Springs, Billy Graham Rapid Response Team chaplains are wondering — out loud — whether or not a fire is the hardest to deal with. "Fire to me is by far the scariest," said chaplain Kate Poll. "In a hurricane, you know when it's coming; you know when it's done. ...
