wisdom for this day

Seek his will in all you do,     and he will show you which path to take. Proverbs 3:6 (NLT)

Thoughts/reflection on Baltimore

Baltimore, from the Irish Bale au Ti Moin, the town of clergy, to a another town torn apart by the sprit of lawlessness. From a radio sports broadcast from today (04/29) “Baltimore erupts for six runs in the first inning, and winning 8-2.”  This was the first major league game played with fan at a stadium.  The doors were locked due to the civil unrest of the previous three days. Some spiritualists define the oriole as having the ability to see how life is woven together, or in the case of recent days, how the fabric is stretched to the point of damage. I'll allow father to guide you in the reflection and revelation.

For the day(s) of worship

But you, O Yahweh, are highly honored forever.  Now look at your enemies, O Yahweh. Now look at your enemies.  They disappear, and all troublemakers are scattered. But you make me as strong as a wild bull, and soothing lotion is poured on me.  My eyes gloat over those who spy on me.  My ears hear the cries of evildoers attacking me.   Psalm 92:8-11 (NOG)

examination

In the same way every good tree produces good fruit, but a rotten tree produces bad fruit.  A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, and a rotten tree cannot produce good fruit.  Any tree that fails to produce good fruit is cut down and thrown into a fire.  Matthew 17:17-19 (NOG) Yes, the way to identify a tree or a person is by the kind of fruit that is produced. Measure the motives of your heart. Examine yourself in the light of my love.  At Passover the lamb was examined, to be found perfect. Even I was publically and brutally examined. No imperfection was found. Stand in the light of my love. In me there is life; In me there is no imperfection.  Partake freely of my fruit.

on the shoreline

Early in the morning, Jesus stood on the shore, but the disciples did not realize that it was Jesus.     John 21:4 (NIV) Wherever you go, He will search for you. He sees you as you go about your daily chores. He is there.

Word for James

In the past you've had some highly exciting experiences following after God but now you feel defeated.  You've gone back to what you once knew in the past.  Jesus is calling your name aloud. He is not done, but has much more for you to do.  You have not disappointed him. He knows your heart and the plan he has for you.

Here and there

I am here. The thing you are running from meets you when you arrive.  I am yet there too.

listening to me

"Oh, that My people would listen to Me, that Israel would walk in My ways!  I would soon subdue their enemies, and turn My hand against their adversaries... He would have fed them also with the finest of wheat; and with honey from the rock I would have satisfied you."   (Psalm 81:13-14, 16 (NKJV)

what I see in you

What needs to be said has been said.  What needs to be done has been completed for you.  My love lasts. My faithfulness is never-ending. Spend time with me.  Soak in the fullness I have for you. Learn my ways and feel the security you are meant to have. Let my ways become your ways. Embrace what I see in you.  

treasures of God

We have this treasure from God, but we are like clay jars that hold the treasure. This shows that the great power is from God, not from us. II Corinthians 4:7 (NCV) Rely upon me and I will guide you in my ways. Ask me and receive what I have for you, for you are my treasure. My ways are perfect; my heart is pure and always for you. Walk in my pathways and gain security knowing I am there. Share what I show you so others might gain newness of life. Speak my peace into their situations.

Our Hope

All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is by his great mercy that we have been born again, because God raised Jesus Christ from the dead. Now we live with great expectation, and we have a priceless inheritance—an inheritance that is kept in heaven for you, pure and undefiled, beyond the reach of change and decay.   1 Peter 1: 3-4 (NLT)

Listen for me

Then he added, “Pay close attention to what you hear. The closer you listen, the more understanding you will be given and you will receive even more.  To those who listen to my teaching, more understanding will be given. But for those who are not listening, even what little understanding they have will be taken away from them.” Mark 4: 24-25 (NLT)   I am calling you name. Are you listening for me? I whisper my thoughts for you and how I am blessing you. My heart is to bless you so you might bless others.   Desire all I have for you. Listen for me at all times. Pay attention to my heart. Freely share what you receive so that I might pour forth more.   Continue listening and I will bless you with the oil of my Spirit. I will cover you with my ways.

even the wind and sea obey him

And He got up and rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Hush, be still.” And the wind died down and it became perfectly calm.  And He said to them, “Why are you afraid? Do you still have no faith?” They became very much afraid and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?” Mark 4:39-41(NLT) Do not fear. Do not all it space into your life.  In your time of stress and trouble look for him. He is always near you. But he is not reacting to the scenario as you may be.  Be at peace in Him. Speak to the circumstances His peace and direction. Be at peace, for remember that even the wind and the sea obey Him.

in the kingdom

But those who teach God’s laws and obey them shall be great in the Kingdom of Heaven. “But I warn you—unless your goodness is greater than that of the Pharisees and other Jewish leaders, you can’t get into the Kingdom of Heaven at all! Matthew 5:19b-20 (NLT)
