One Walk

One Walk with Jesus is about putting on The Armor of God and surrounding yourself in all things about Jesus. Being an alert defender of the faith and fighting to focus on Jesus.

Just finished…

I finished listening to The Long War Against God by Henry M. Morris.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recommend it, just as the title says The Long War Against God and subtitle states ‘The History and Impact of the Creation/Evolution Conflict. It is long with a lot of detailed history behind evolution and it’s use as a primary weapon in the conflict against creation and the Creator, the God of the Bible.

and

Just started…

Started listening to Reason, Faith, and the Struggle for Western Civilization by Samuel Gregg.

Description Summary:

The genius of Western civilization is its unique synthesis of reason and faith. But today that synthesis is under attack from the East by radical Islam (faith without reason) and from within the West itself by aggressive secularism (reason without faith). The stakes are incalculably high.

The naïve and increasingly common assumption that reason and faith are incompatible is simply at odds with the facts of history.

One Walk with Jesus is knowing you in the world, but not of the world…

We are still in this world but we are no longer of it. We are still surrounded by all the horrors and tragedies of this life, but this is not our life.

Dear God, my Abba Father, Lord Jesus my Savior, thank You for this day You created. For each of mine, whom each is a blessing in a special way. For all Your blessings. For all You put in my path to remind me of Your love and promises. So when the craziness, tragedies and horrors of the world surround us and seem to be closing in. We can know and rest in Your truths and the reality that we are in the world, but not of it. We our Your children and members of Your kingdom. Thank You, forgive me will I let You down, I’m sorry, 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.

Formed Daily Reflection

Recognition that lost periods of a life can never be returned can provoke an intense desire to give completely to God what is yet remaining in a life. The soul scarred by former sin is sometimes, after grace, the soul that will give without reserve. It is not at all an exaggeration to affirm that great sinners often do become hidden saints.

https://utmost.org/prayer-in-the-father%E2%80%99s-hearing/

Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, "Father, I thank You that You have heard Me."
John 11:41

A prayer…

Dear God, my Abba Father, Lord Jesus my Savior, thank You for this day You created. For each of Your blessings. For each of mine. For every morning giving me what I need to get going with You. Getting my heart and my mind focused and aligned with You. So I will walk seeing through Your eyes, hearing with Your ears and loving with Your heart. For this world is lost and a drift. And I don’t want to waste anymore time distract and tempted by its ways. Or the hate that consumes it. Let me and mine be lights that shine for Your glory and honor. 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.

One Walk with Jesus is about defending the faith…

Mario Lopez Reportedly on Verge of Being Fired After Comments About Transgender Children

A popular entertainment host could be out of the job because he admitted he sees problems with allowing 3-year-old children to determine their sexual and gender identities. Mario Lopez’s future with NBC’s “Access Hollywood” is reportedly “in doubt” several weeks after the 45-year-old TV personality said it’s “dangerous” for parents to allow their very young kids to embrace transgenderism. He first made the comments during an interview with conservative firebrand Candace Owens, who referenced actor Charlize Theron’s decision to raise her now-7-year-old son Jackson as a female. Lopez, the incoming host of “Access Hollywood,” told Owens it’s “sort of alarming” to think some parents would let children as young as 3 years old dictate their sexuality. “I just think about the repercussions later on,” he said. Predictably, the former “Saved by the Bell” star faced an onslaught of criticism and issued a statement apologizing for his ‘ignorant and insensitive” comments.’ I have been and always will be an ardent supporter of the LGBTQ community, and I am going to use this opportunity to better educate myself,” Lopez said. “Moving forward, I will be more informed and thoughtful.” read more

THINK.
It Takes A Village…to cause Lopez to retract his earlier statements. To a certain degree, Mario experienced what 50 percent of dads encounter: dad shaming. Sixty percent of moms say they’ve been criticized for their parenting skills. In his book When Harry Became Sally, Ryan Anderson outlines the four-step protocol transgender proponents utilize when a child identifies as the opposite sex. First, a social transition involving the changing of the name and wardrobe. Second, activists administer puberty blockers to prevent maturation and development. Third, around the age of 16, the teen is given cross-sex hormones, which mimics the process of puberty. Finally, transgender individuals at age 18 undergo sex-reassignment surgery. In scripture, we read how parents shoot their children like arrows toward the glory of God, the good of the world, and the joy of the child’s soul (Proverbs 22:6, Ephesians 6:4, Psalm 127:3). Research out of Johns Hopkins University indicates that living as a transgender person is extremely dangerous and difficult. Parents aim their children and their village supports the children. But when your village shames instead of supports a biblical worldview, parents may need to reconsider village input.

PRAY.
Pray for the children in our nation. Pray for God to protect their hearts and their minds from lies about gender and sex that are contrary to God’s Word and His perfect design. Pray specifically for the children in your church to embrace God’s truth and hide it in their hearts (Deuteronomy 6:6-7, Psalm 119:11).

ACT.
How should we, as Christians, respond to the growing trend of supporting gender transitions at younger and younger ages? Take a few minutes to read the three truths The Denison Forum reminds Christians to remember as we respond to this cultural issue.

One Walk with Jesus is about pestering with out ceasing…

A prayer…

Dear God, my Abba Father, Lord Jesus my Savior, thank You for this day You have created. Blessed are those who step out into it with You in their hearts and mind. Oh that You would continue to bless me and mine, expanding our territory for Your name and glory, protecting us and keeping us from evil and causing any pain. This is my simple prayer, like prayed by Jabez. This world needs You now Lord. Fear and hate is driving us against each other. To many have been distracted by the evil ones lies. Lost in their greed, with out a moral compass, they seek only for them selves no matter the cost, even to their own. The take what is not theirs and cover what they don’t have or understand, You. So their only coarse of action is to silence and persecute that have found what they seek. Open their hearts, ears and eyes Lord. Let Your love shine through us and overcome their hate. Be with those being persecuted, martyred. Be with their families keeping them strong in their faith. Comfort them giving them what they need for each day. Give us all the faith to live unconditionally. 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.

A verse…

"And let us hold unwaveringly to the hope that we confess, for the one who made the promise is trustworthy."

One Walk with Jesus is about being good growing soil…

A thought…

Forget Trying to Be Fully Understood!
It’s a waste of time expecting the impossible from finite people. If you’ll let the Father’s knowing you be enough, then you can be blessedly free from the pain of criticism, rejections, and misunderstandings other people have of you at times.
