The Lord decides what a person does. So no one can understand what his life is all about.

April 8, 2019

One Walk with Jesus is about always seeking His face

A thought…

Prayer is not about feelings of love, it is about being, truly and literally, in Love, living in Him in whom we have our being. It occupies the whole of heart and might, and in an odd way, despite distractions, it can occupy the whole mind too. Everything that flits through the mind in prayer, no matter how irrelevant or irreverent it may seem, can be caught up into our love of God. Nothing is wasted. Above all we should never let our feelings in prayer deter us from persevering in prayer, for God listens to our prayer even when we don’t.

The Lord decides what a person does. So no one can understand what his life is all about.
Proverbs 20:24

A prayer…

Dear Lord God, Abba Father, Jesus my Savior, thank You for all Your blessings that so often show themselves in the simplest ways and moments. Nourished by trust in You, which produces faith, hope and love. Love for You, for Your blessings and those You place in our walk. Faith in that You will use all things for Your glory. Hope for the new, the new day, the new week, the new chance. Love that is received and given unconditionally. Thank You. Thank You for today, for mine and for being able to come to You.
In Jesus name I pray. Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost; as it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Started listening to The Third Jihad – Overcoming Radical Islam’s Plan for the West

April 6, 2019

I just started listening to The Third Jihad – Overcoming Radical Islam’s Plan for the West by Michael Youssef, narrated by Paul Michael on my Audible app.

I’ve been wanting to listen to this book since to listening to In The Market with Janet Parshall episodes titled…

Hiding Our Heads in the Sand
Radical Islam has been waging war against our global civilization throughout history—and now, it’s closer than ever to American soil. Our guest, a Coptic Christian who was born in Egypt and now leads a megachurch in America, knows from firsthand experience that radical Islamists have goals that many American Christians believe are “unthinkable.” He joins us to warn Western Christians that it doesn’t help to ignore what’s going on. There’s a third jihad underway, and its goal is to take over the West. He will share surprising insights from history, compelling and dramatic stories, and a practical agenda that one person—or one church—can immediately put into practice to make a difference in the world. Don’t miss a minute of this conversation.
https://www.moodyradio.org/radioplayer.aspx?episode=254016&hour=2

Then…

The Challenge of Islam
How does Islamic culture challenge the Judeo-Christian concept of human rights? What does Sharia Law mean for women? Join us as we learn about the challenges that exist with the theology and global rise of Islam. We’ll also discuss religious persecution and slavery in the name of Islam with our guest who has been an eye-witness to human rights violations occurring in conflict zones around the world.​

Finished Alienated America – Why Some Places Thrive, While Others Collapse

April 6, 2019

I finished listening to Alienated America – Why Some Places Thrive, While Others Collapse by Timothy P. Carney, narrated by Charles Constant on my Audible app.

Give it ⭐️⭐️⭐️

A long listen with lots of data, but worth it. Like taking a advanced social studies course on current America. Full of insight. My take away… why some have hope and others don’t… God.

… “You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.”

April 5, 2019

Today my One Walk with Jesus started with more of the Psalms, specifically Psalm 110 and what the Psalms declare about Jesus…

Living in the Psalms
Psalm 110 is quoted more times in the New Testament than any other messianic prophecy. Though it’s written by King David, Jewish and Christian scholars agree that it can only be referring to a foretold Messiah. Find out more when you listen to the next HAVEN Today as Charles Morris wraps up a series called “Living in the Psalms.”

Reading…

Psalm 110
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm+110&version=NLT

The Jesus Centered Study Bible is an excellent resource to encounter Jesus in a Fresh Way Throughout the Entire Bible

Blue lettering highlights more than 600 passages in the Old Testament pointing to Jesus—references and promises that show God’s love story for your life. You’ll see where Jesus appears, cover-to-cover, in every book of the Bible. Distinctive blue lettering helps you quickly and easily discover what’s most important in the Bible: Jesus.

A verse…

The LORD has taken an oath and will not break his vow: “You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.”
Psalm 110:4 NLT

A Song…

Jesus Messiah

A prayer…

Dear Lord God, Abba Father, Jesus my Savior, thank You for calling me out. For guiding me closer to You each day. Giving me understanding and wisdom as needed while always reminding me to accept You as a child, a child of God. Not as the world sees or with intellect and a hardened heart, but with innocence and total dependence, and with a open heart. Thank You, I’m sorry, forgive me, I love you. In Jesus name I pray I give thanks. Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost; as it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul…

April 4, 2019

This morning I started my One Walk with Jesus early, at 3:30 am. What I call the ‘Jesus hour’, because I wake rested, but it’s to early to get out of bed. So I pray, listen to Christain musics and talk to Jesus. Sometimes it’s like He says ok get up I know what we can do. Other times, like today it’s like He let’s me wrestle with my thoughts as I seek His presence. Here is where He led me today…

I listened to Moody Radio…

First Kurt Goff Live, which I found out isn’t live anymore, but the ‘Best Of’ was just that the best. Here’s a song or two that…

Your Words

A devotion, from Jesus Calling…

I MEET YOU in the stillness of your soul. It is there that I seek to commune with you. A person who is open to My Presence is exceedingly precious to Me. My eyes search to and fro throughout the earth, looking for one whose heart is seeking Me. I see you trying to find Me; our mutual search results in joyful fulfillment.

Stillness of soul is increasingly rare in this world addicted to noise and speed. I am pleased with your desire to create a quiet space where you and I can meet. Don’t be discouraged by the difficulty of achieving this goal. I monitor all your efforts and am blessed by each of your attempts to seek My Face.

“Be still before the Lord, all mankind, because he has roused himself from his holy dwelling.”
—Zechariah 2:13

For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him. In this you have done foolishly; therefore from now on you shall have wars.
—2 Chronicles 16:9 nkjv

More about the Psalms on Haven Today…

Living in the Psalms
Psalms of lament. They may not top your list of favorite Bible passages, but they do make up a majority of the psalms. Find out why they’re important and how to study them when you listen the next HAVEN Today as Charles Morris looks at the dark Psalm 88 in a series called “Living in the Psalms.”
http://haven.streamon.fm/program-e-1554361200.000000

Psalm 88
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalms+88&version=NLT

A verse…

He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake.
Psalm 23:2–3 nkjv

My prayer…

Dear Lord God, Abba Father, Jesus my Savior, thank You this new day and for Your continued blessings for me and mine. For all You bring my way throughout the day and night. For Your gentle touch that always leads me back to You, where I find peace, direction with enough understanding and wisdom to continue my one walk with You one day at a time. Thank You, I’m sorry I let You down so much, forgive me, I love You.
In Jesus name I pray. Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost; as it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Have mercy on me, O God, because of your unfailing love…

April 3, 2019

One Walk with Jesus requires an open heart…

A thought…

[At the crucifixion] right when the Devil thinks he’s defeating God, God defeats him. This is how God takes things that are bad and makes them for good. All things works together for good for those who love God and are called according to his purposes.
Steve Ray
from Stations of the Cross

More of the Psalms with Haven Today…

Living in the Psalms
After sending Uriah to his death, King David famously took the newly widowed Bathsheba for himself. But he didn’t get away with it. In Psalm 51 we find David’s confession and plea for forgiveness. On the next HAVEN Today Charles Morris expounds on this great confession in a series called “Living in the Psalms.”
http://haven.streamon.fm/program-e-1554274800.000000

A verse or two…

Have mercy on me, O God, because of your unfailing love. Because of your great compassion, blot out the stain of my sins.
Psalm 51:1 NLT

Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a loyal spirit within me.
Psalm 51:10 NLT

Readings…

Psalm 51
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalms+51&version=NLT

A prayer…

Dear Lord God, Abba Father, thank for today and for Your blessings. For Your mercy in not giving us what we deserve, but by Your grace giving us what we don’t. Open our hearts to our nature. Continue to teach us to walk as one with You through Jesus in the Holy Spirit, full of mercy and grace. In Jesus name I pray. Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost; as it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
