Praise God For All the Children

Now they were also bringing [even] babies to Him that He might touch them, and when the disciples noticed it, they reproved them. But Jesus called them the parents] to Him, saying, Allow the little children to come to Me, and do not hinder them, for to such [as these] belongs the kingdom of God. Truly I say to you, whoever does not accept and receive and welcome the kingdom of God like a little child [does] shall not in any way enter it [at all]. Luke 18:15-18 AMP   1John 4:16 Exultate, Album Peace, 2010.

I WAS CREATED TO GIVE YOU GLORY

-
When you come into His presence, lifting up the name of Jesus and you hear the music playing and you see the people praising; just forget about our worries, let you troubles fall behind you, and don't you wait another minute, just get up and on your feet.... Get to dancing, singing, jumping, leaping, get to shouting, make it loud, make it glorious. Start rejoicing,  prasing, lifting, raising, lifting, get to shouting, make it loud, make His praise glorious, glorious.  But now, this is what the LORD says— He who created you, O Jacob, He who formed you, O Israel: "Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. For I am the LORD, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior; I give Egypt for your ransom, Cush and Seba in you...

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...

God The Covenant Keeper

Then on that day David first appointed the singing of praises to the Lord by Asaph and his kindred. O give thanks to the Lord , call on his name, make known his deeds among the peoples.   Sing to him, sing praises to him,  tell of all his wonderful works.   Glory in his holy name;  let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice.   Seek the Lord and his strength,  seek his presence continually. Remember the wonderful works he has done,  his miracles, and the judgements he uttered,   O offspring of his servant Israel children of Jacob, his chosen ones. He is the Lord our God;  his judgements are in all the earth.   Remember his covenant for ever,  the word that he commanded for a thousand generations,  the covenant that he made with Abraham,  his sworn promise to Isaac, which he confirmed to Jacob as a statute,  to Israel as an everlasting covenant ,    saying, ‘To ...

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. ...

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? ...

You Reap What You Sow

-
Image
7 Do not be deceived and deluded and misled; God will not allow Himself to be sneered at (scorned, disdained, or mocked by mere pretensions or professions, or by His precepts being set aside.) [He inevitably deludes himself who attempts to delude God.] For whatever a man sows, that and that only is what he will reap.   For he who sows to his own flesh (lower nature, sensuality) will from the flesh reap decay and ruin and destruction, but he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. And let us not lose heart and grow weary and faint in acting nobly and doing right, for in due time and at the appointed season we shall reap, if we do not loosen and relax our courage and faint. So then, as occasion and opportunity open up to us, let us do good [morally] to all people [not only being useful or profitable to them, but also doing what is for their spiritual good and advantage]. Be mindful to be a blessing, especially to those of the househo...
