"Only Life Changes"

“Let’s Pray”
Father God, let this message touch someone’s heart today in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
I don’t know about you, but when I see a light outside at night come on because it is a sensor light. I am very Leary. So, for the past week I noticed about 9: o’clock the light in the store area comes on. So, I just assumed it was the cars coming by so close. Hmm. Well, this one night, the light went on and I see it on my security camera, but I didn’t get what made it come on because there were no vehicles going by. So, I continued to do my work on the computer. The light went out. Ok cool! Then it came back on. So, I watched intensely and seen this big racoon leave the store area by climbing the fence and the racoon proceeded to my neighbor’s house over the fence and in his yard. I laughed so hard. So, I played it back and watched the racoon’s every move. How funny. I think the racoon is eating the strawberries off the ground. We have little ones in the front yard and back yard. Maybe the wild blackberry’s LOL!
It reads in 2 Corinthians 4:7-11: But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus’ sake, so that his life may also be revealed in our mortal body.
I know by reading these verses. That when I bought mixed gladiolus the bulbs were shaped about the same. I prayed for a great growth of these gladiolus. I planted some in the ground, some in containers and some in clay pots that I had hand painted for valentines one year. All the clay pots I bought and painted. where the gladiolus that grew the best. I was so surprised at the outcome. They were beautiful. That is the way God loves us. He is always surprised the outcome and proud of His children who believe and bloom. I gave most of them away and some went to the nursing home to my elderly friends and some to the elderly friends that live in their own home still. What is good about bulbs are they multiply in the soil so you can dig them up and grow more the next year. Spread them out or just give them away and spread the love.
It reads 1 Timothy 2:8-15: I want men everywhere to pray with holy lifted hands up to God. Free from sin, anger and resentment. And the women should be the same way. quiet and sensible in manners and clothing. Christian women should be noticed for being kind and good, not for the way they fix their hair or because of their jewels or fancy clothes. Women should listen and learn quietly and humbly. I never let women teach men or lord it over them. Let them be silent in your church meetings. Why because God made Adam first, and afterwards He made Eve. And Adam was not fooled by Satan, but Eve was. and sinned as a result. So God sent pain and sorrow to women when their children are born, but God will save their souls if they trust Him, living quiet, good and loving lives.

Father God, I thank You and praise You for the wise instruction Paul has given to Timothy on the importance and effectiveness of prayer. Assist and give me wisdom to pray at all times and to intercede for all men and women in spirit, in truth and without ceasing. Assist and guide me to be alert to the rising prayer needs in my own life, others and people around the world. Lead and give me a heart to intercede for all men and women everywhere. For kings, princes, presidents and leaders, in both the political and spiritual realm. I thank You and praise You Lord, that You are a God who hears and answers the prayers of the righteous. Forgive us for falling short sometimes. Forgive the current, frenzied mindset of ‘women’s lib’ and ‘women’s rights’ which has caused complete confusion in many of our Churches and Christian communities. Forgive us for interpreting Your Word with liberal glasses, which consider biblical truth to be outdated and irrelevant or for teaching it with a legalistic mindset. Where women are either elevated into unbiblical roles within the church or prevented from engaging in any form of service to God and others. Lord Jesus open those men that think cynical about women instead of uniting through Christ’s function. Forgive those men who have no knowledge of what a woman is truly worth to You. I thank You and praise You that You know the value of Your children. I thank You and praise You that You determined an order in creation, in our homes, in the wider community, and within our church fellowships. May the people Who are called by Your name reject the world’s mindset and return to reading Your Word in spirit and in truth realizing we are Your treasure’s and You for fill all blessings, honor and power in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

The LORD announces the word, and the women who proclaim it are a mighty “throng def (of a crowd) fill or be present in (a place or area).”
Psalm 68:11

Let’s start with this: God sent Jesus in His image, so He led the way for Jesus and for us.
“Let’s read; John 3:16 -For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
God led the word through others and the Bible.
Let’s read; Psalm 119:105 – Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.
God’s love led Jesus to calvary to die for our sins.
Let’s read; Romans 5:8 – But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Keep in constant communication with God. “Pray and seek His face in everything.
Let’s read: 1 Chronicles 16:11 – Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always.
God gives second chances to the sinner and if we walk in His righteousness, we have the gift of eternity. How awesome is this?

Our God leads. At the blast of the seventh trumpet, which[2960] will bring the glorious end, songs of praise resound in heaven which proclaim the fulfilment as having already occurred (Revelation 11:15-18). At the opening of the heavenly temple of God, the ark of the covenant therein is visible, and lightnings, and other signs, indicating the judgments belonging to the actual fulfilment of the mystery of God, occur.
Let’s Read: Revelation 11:15-18
The seventh angel sounded his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, which said: “The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Messiah, and he will reign for ever and ever.” And the twenty-four elders, who were seated on their thrones before God, fell on their faces and worshiped God, saying: “We give thanks to you, Lord God Almighty, the One who is and who was, because you have taken your great power and have begun to reign. The nations were angry, and your wrath has come. The time has come for judging the dead, and for rewarding your servants the prophet and your people who revere your name, both great and small, and for destroying those who destroy the earth.”

{Let’s Pray}
Father God, I thank You and praise You that You lead and guide all Your children in Your way.  You have told us the end from the beginning and that evil will one day be fully and finally put away for good. I thank You and praise You for sending Jesus to be the propitiation for our sins, rescuing us from eternal damnation, and clothing us in Jesus perfect righteousness, forgiveness and love. Thank You and praise You that sin, Satan, death, and hell, will one day be fully and finally thrown into the eternal lake of fire and Christ will put all things under His feet. I believe I will be a faithful witness in the position where You have placed me, lead me and continue to work the works You Lord have given me, during my journey on earth. I thank You and praise You for the indwelling Holy Spirit Who raised Jesus from the dead will empower us and that Jesus is greater that he that is in the world. I thank You and praise Your holy name, for all who are redeemed by the blood of the Lamb and have been made one in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

{Power Verse}
Even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you. Psalm 139:12

It reads in (Matthew 24:23–28) So Jesus had been telling the disciples that He does not want His followers to be deceived about His return to earth. False prophets and false messiahs will claim that Jesus is back, possibly out of view somewhere. Jesus has said flatly that those claims will not even be worth investigating. No one on earth will have to wonder whether Christ has come back. It will be obvious that He has returned. (Matthew 24:29; Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.”) (Mark 13:24; “But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light,”) The Moon rotates on its own axis at the same rate that it orbits around Earth. That means we always see the same side of the Moon from our position on Earth. The side we don’t see gets just as much light, so a more accurate name for that part of the Moon is the “far side.” When the moon is full On Earth, our view of the illuminated part of the Moon changes each night, depending on where the Moon is in its orbit, or path, around Earth. When we have a full view of the completely illuminated side of the Moon, that phase is known as a full moon. I love seeing the full moon at night. I really like the harvest moon. Harvest Moon is one such subject that we are not very aware. Generally, the Harvest Moon occurs in the month of September or October, but it is influenced by the arrangement of the lunar cycle with the Gregorian calendar. After sunset around any full moon, the moon will always be near the horizon. It’ll just have risen. It’s the location of the moon near the horizon that causes the Harvest Moon – or any full moon, to look big and orange in color. The orange color of a moon near the horizon is a true physical effect. Orange Moon. At full moon, the Moon is almost on the opposite site of the Earth to the Sun although not quite all lined up. That means that to get to the Moon, light from the Sun has to skim through our atmosphere. “Moreover, the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that the Lord binds up the breach of his people and heals the stroke of their wound. Isaiah 30:26” There is so much more about the moon in the bible.
In Thessalonians 5:2-5 it reads the day of our Lord will come unexpectedly like a thief in the night. When people are saying, “All is well, everything is quiet and peaceful” then all of a sudden disaster will fall upon them as suddenly as a womans birth pains when her child is born. And these people will not be able to get away anywhere. There will be no place to hide. But dear brothers and sisters, you are ot in the dark about these things and you won’t be surprised as by a thief when that day of the Lord comes. For you are all children of the light and of the day, and do not belong to darkness and night.
{Let’s pray}
Father God, The Moon You created is so beautiful. I like how it looks like Your moon has sunglasses on. Lo! I am believing that many would repent and turn to You Jesus by trusting that Jesus shed His blood for the forgiveness of sins and life everlasting. I thank You and praise You that You are my God and Savior. I thank You and praise You for the grace You have shown to me and to all who trust in Christ for salvation. I thank You and praise You for Your faithfulness, even when I am faithless You stay faithful. I long to tune the ears of my heart. I thank You and praise You that You are always there to hold me steady when the enemy of my soul seeks to entrap me. More than anything I thank You for sending Jesus to be my Saviour and my Friend; my Way and my Life in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

Father God, let this message touch someone’s heart today in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
Love this verse: Make smooth in the desert a highway for our God.

John 1:23
We pray, for ourselves and others; because we know it is God who holds the power. Prayer is our means of communication with God. It is the way we access His power and participate in His plans for this world. I know if I see an accident I immediately pray for healing of that situation and give it to God from my heart. Maybe we see someone who is on the highway that is holding a sign. We are close enough to help that person out and pray for them. What if we are not close to them? It reads in James 5:16 – Confess our faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. (I am a voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Make straight the way of the Lord,’ as Isaiah the prophet said.” Hebrews 12:13)
We should always pray from our heart for Jehovah Jireh or Jehovah Rapha (Healer) to help them. We the Church is not ultimately a building, but a body, a spiritual family of those who have professed faith in Christ for salvation and consequently been baptized, attesting to their identification with Christ and a local body of believers. Imagine everyone praying from their heart for that one person they come in contact with. Praying blessings over them and that person doesn’t know. God does. What I love seeing is God working in that person’s life. How powerful. To know everyone, I come in contact whether they are hurting, or maybe froward towards me, maybe needing assistance, maybe needing healing, or maybe just a listening ear. We can change the world one prayer at a time. I have asked people if I can pray for them. I have some turn prayer down because they don’t believe, or they think it is too personal. It is alright! Pray from your heart. God’s heart is more powerful than ours. I know because I am always praying for myself and others. Prayer is never to personal cause God knows all and sees all. I can honestly say I do not see all or hear all. Thank God. Just saying. We should: Pray for others from the heart, with deep feeling and sincerity. Pray for others regularly. Pray for others in detail. Pray for others with faith, knowing that God has all power and loves the people we are praying for. Pray for others with love. Pray for others fervently-with intensity, zeal, passion and righteously.
It reads in James 5:16 – Confess [your] faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. I know I said this verse a second time. I always have to remind myself. I am not perfect, and I fall short of the glory of God at times. Romans 3:23 I believe.
It reads in Matthew 5:44: But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,
It reads in Galatians 6:2: Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way, you will fulfill the law of Christ.
It reads in 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18: Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.
Isaiah 41:9-10 Leave everything in God’s hands and eventually you’ll see God’s hand in everything. I have seen this truth work itself out over the years in past troubles, health challenges, my marriage, parenting teenagers, career transitions, relational issues and financial struggles. So, I get up each morning and spend time with The Lord Jesus and journal. I take time reading the past days journaling and see where God has worked in my life and others lives. I take the extra time during the day and evening. God even gets to hear me in between times. You think he would get tired. Lo! God never slumbers nor sleeps. He’s eternally alert. Think about that statement for a moment. God is always our able keeper, helper and protector. We are so blessed with a Father who always cares and loves us. Amen!

I like hearing this poem.

“I Said a Prayer for You Today”

I said a prayer for you today, And I know God must have heard.
I felt the answer in my heart, Although He spoke no word.
I didn’t ask for wealth or fame, I knew you wouldn’t mind.
I asked Him to send treasures, Of a far more lasting kind.
I asked that He’d be near you, At the start of each new day.
To grant you health and blessings, And friends to share your way.
I asked for happiness for you, In all things great and small.
But it was for His loving care, I prayed the most of all.

{Let’s Pray}
Father God, I thank You, Praise Your holy name for all Your goodness, kindness and grace. and I thank You for sending Jesus for forgiveness of sins and believing in our salvation and being redeemed is the gift of eternity. All praise, honor and glory to Your name from this day forth and for evermore. If there is anybody out there who does not know You and wants to know You. Let them pray with me.

May I be actively dependent on You by trusting Your word so that in Your power, I may live as You would have me to live. Lord, I desire that Your will be done in my life, and as it is Your will that I should give thanks in all things. Purify this superb grace of thanksgiving in me in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
If you prayed with me, Jesus came in your heart. I am believing for God to guide you to one of His churches to assist you to grow in Him.

{Power Verse}
I love, because Jehovah heareth my voice, even my supplications: an unusual, but not impossible, form of expression for I love Jehovah, because he heareth. Psalm 116:1

In life we go through some trying times,
That seems like it is nearing the end.
Praying our life takes a turn for the better.
Moving forward we find giving to begin.
So, others who struggle we see,
Pray for beginning joy of God’s Day.
Full of blessings, laughter and sun rays.
Knowing God always leads our way.

Let’s Pray: Father God, let this message touch someone’s heart today. Give Your healing in every way I pray in Jesus Holy Precious Name Amen.
I know in the Fall I like to see all kind of rose’s, bulb flowers, like Daffodils, Lilly’s, Elephant ears, Hurricane flowers just in time for hurricane weather. But I pray we don’t have a hurricane. I love seeing the turtles sun bath on a cool day or watch the butterfly’s fly. I always try to capture the best pictures and hope for a better camera someday. Even though I have many and enjoy taking pictures with them all. I believe taking photo’s makes me feel closer to God’s creation. Especially when I enhance the pictures. Photos will never take the place of God’s source of comfort, strength or the everlasting life that He gives. Even when I feel alone, God always sure to let me know He will never leave. Let’s Read: Hebrews 10:32-39; But recall the former days in which, after you were illuminated, you endured a great struggle with sufferings: partly while you were made a spectacle both by reproaches and tribulations, and partly while you became companions of those who were so treated; for you had compassion on me in my chains, and joyfully accepted the plundering of your goods, knowing that you have a better and an enduring possession for yourselves in heaven. Therefore, do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise: “For yet a little while, And He who is coming will come and will not tarry. Now the just shall live by faith. But if anyone draws back, my soul has no pleasure in him.” But we are not of those who draw back to perdition, but of those who believe to the saving of the soul.
{Let’s Pray}
Father God, keep others and I rooted in Your love. Regardless of if the winds may blow, or the rains my come and thunder on us Your lighting, Your protection is endless. I am believing for those who want to give up will read this prayer and realize their life is worth more than Gold, because You love us unconditionally as we believe. Guide us to never give up or ignore You. I know You will always remind us You are here. I thank You and praise You for the great salvation that is mine in Jesus Christ. Believing others will see Salvation is theirs also. I thank You and praise You that nothing can snatch others or myself from Your hand, and nothing can separate others or myself from Your love which is ours by faith in Jesus Christ. I believe that I and others may live a victorious life for the honor of Your name. When others spirit or my spirit fails, or I find myself under severe trials and temptations. May we lean on Your ever present, sufficient strength to come through victoriously. I thank You, praise You and give You all the glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

The wicked will finally lose; the righteous will finally win. Proverbs 21:18

{Let’s Pray}
Father God, Good morning. I am Believing for healing, courage and blessings in all lives today. I am believing for this message to touch someone’s heart and soul today in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16″ When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles. “The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit. 2 Corinthians 1:3-4” God of all comfort is the statement that He is the Father of mercies. Mercy is the outward manifestation of compassion for others in their affliction. Mercy had its origin with God, who is called its Father. All acts of pity and compassion proceed from Him.
It reads in Galatians 6:1-5; Brothers and sisters, if someone is caught in a sin, you who live by the Spirit should restore that person gently. But watch yourselves, or you also may be tempted. Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way, you will fulfill the law of Christ. If anyone thinks they are something when they are not, they deceive themselves. Each one should test their own actions. Then they can take pride in themselves alone, without comparing themselves to someone else, for each one should carry their own load. “So, Paul has confidence that the words he speaks to the Galatians will empower them to defeat the works of the flesh, and to abide the fruit of the Spirit. Now, in chapter 6 of Galatians; he gives advice to show the Galatian believers how to practically live by the Spirit and bear the fruit of the Spirit. It reads in Galatians 6:9-10; Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers. {This so touches my heart. People that don’t go to church don’t realize the bond the family of God carries. If they did more people would believe in Christ and want to be a part of the Lord Jesus’s Spirit that illustrates the proper use of natural resources, the rightful place and creation of God. We that are redeemed are no longer slaves to sin. All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is our merciful Father and the source of all comfort. He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. “Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.
1 Timothy 6:18″ Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God. They are to do good, to be rich in good works, to be generous and ready to share, and he answered them, “Whoever has two tunics is to share with him who has none, and whoever has food is to do likewise.”
{Let’s Pray}
Father God, I do want to please You and give as You have given me. To overcome and shine Your light in others’ lives and changes for the good. I acknowledge that simply trusting Your word, applying it in my life and looking to Jesus is of greater worth than anything I myself can offer You. I thank You and praise You that in Christ I am a new creature, and by faith in Jesus, I have become a child of God. I believe I may be a good steward of the work that You have given me to do, and that I abide low at the Cross and broken before You, knowing that I must one day stand before the judgement seat of Christ. Give me the wisdom and strength I need to give encouragement to my brothers and sisters when they fall, assist me to do so without fault-finding judgement, and may I live the rest of my life in a means that honors Your holy, Precious Name Jesus Amen.

{Power Verse}
The man who tries to be good, loving and kind finds life, righteous and honor.

Proverbs 21:21

{Let’s Pray}
Father God let this message today heal someone’s heart or just touch their heart in a way that forgiveness will reveal truth in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
What John means here, is that Jesus did not travel up to Jerusalem with the other pilgrims to the feast, an act which would have been conspicuously public, and would have drawn undue attention to himself. Jesus chose to travel to Jerusalem by himself, privately. Shows also that Jesus spent time with God before the feast. This is something I realize in my own life. Having quiet time with God is so important to me. Gives me time to pray for all those who need healing. When someone comes to mind, I immediately pray for them. Gives me time to journal or to read back on my journal where God has worked in my life, even answered prayers of those I have prayed for. God is good all the time.

John 7:45-52
Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said unto them, why have ye not brought him? The officers answered, never man spoke like this man. Then answered them the Pharisees, are ye also deceived? Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on him? But this people who knows not the law are cursed. Nicodemus saith unto them, (he that came to Jesus by night, being one of them,) Doth our law judges any man, before it hears him, and know what he does? They answered and said unto him, Art thou also of Galilee? Search, and look: for out of Galilee arises no prophet. And every man went unto his own house.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++=
In John 8:1, the problem revealed in the text is that a woman has been caught in adultery and taken by the leaders to be put before Jesus. The Pharisees say to Jesus, “Teacher, this woman was caught in the very act of committing adultery. {“in the act” of a capital offense:} Jesus handles both with such wisdom and grace that the story has become a favorite of many. This was the fabulous part. He who is without sin, let him cast the first stone. This happens to this day. Without Jesus though, you go through the worse, guess this is where it says in- John 7:49- people who knows not the law is cursed. Live a nightmare till you realize Jesus has been with you all along. “Go and sin no more! Jesus forgives and is for the sinner to turn right. “Go and sin no more!”

John 8:1:11
Jesus went unto the mount of Olives. And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down and taught them. And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst, they say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou? This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not. So, when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her. And again, he stooped down and wrote on the ground. And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee? She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
{Let’s Pray}
Father God, I thank You and praise You that You are all forgiving and full of wisdom and understanding. I thank You and praise You that Jesus is the Word of God made flesh. I thank You and praise You for the written Word of God which is living and powerful and contains the gracious words of truth and of eternal life. I thank You and praise You that by faith in the death, burial, and Resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ, I have received the forgiveness of sins, life everlasting, and the indwelling Holy Spirit of God to guide me into all truth. There are no words that are sufficient to thank You and praise You for the sacrifice that Christ made for me at Calvary so that by faith in Him, I have been made a child of God. No celebration compares to being a child of God loved unconditionally. I love You, I thank You, I praise You and give You all the honor and glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

There is living truth in what a good man says, but the mouth of the evil man is filled with curses. Proverbs 10:11

The word “Christ” means anointed. It comes from the Greek Χριστός, cristos, and is a translation of the Hebrew word for Messiah, מָשִׁיחַ, meshiyach, which means anointed or chosen one. Christ, used by Christians as both a name and a title, is synonymous with Jesus. It is also used as a title, in the reciprocal use “Christ Jesus”, meaning “the Messiah Jesus”, and independently as “the Christ”. The Pauline epistles, the earliest texts of the New Testament, often refer to Jesus as “Christ Jesus” or “Christ”. Jesus was referred to as “Jesus of Nazareth” for several reasons. For one thing, in Bible times people were often identified by their native area or place of residence. The man who carried Jesus’ cross when He was no longer able to, for example, was called Simon of Cyrene, noting his name and his place of residence (Luke 23:26; As the soldiers led him away, they seized Simon from Cyrene, who was on his way in from the country, and put the cross on him and made him carry it behind Jesus. Incidentally speaking, ‘Jesus’ is the human name of Christ whom God had given. In essential words, the name Jesus means Savior, one who will save people from their sins. It served as a sign of the things to come and His mission when he walked the Earth. Jesus in line with this higher moral law, Jesus of Nazareth preached an ethics of selfless concern for the welfare of others, rejection of material wealth, and non-retribution, all of which were standard in Jewish ethics. In many statements, Jesus of Nazareth explicitly rejects government and politics as a legitimate sphere of human action. Granted, it’s a riddle that’s tough to grasp right away, so John (the writer) explains it: “But this meant the Holy Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive.” At least some got it. They concluded Jesus was a prophets
Let’s read Hebrews 10:32-38:
Remember those earlier days after you had received the light, when you endured in a great conflict full of suffering. Sometimes you were publicly exposed to insult and persecution; at other times you stood side by side with those who were so treated. You suffered along with those in prison and joyfully accepted the confiscation of your property, because you knew that you yourselves had better and lasting possessions. So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised. For, “In just a little while, he who is coming will come and will not delay. “And “But my righteous one will live by faith. And I take no pleasure in the one who shrinks back.”
“Think back on those early days when you first learned about Christ. Remember how you remained faithful even though it meant terrible suffering? Do not turn faithless in adversity. The writer of Hebrews now encourages us to remember who you are in Christ. Do not be confused about who Jesus is. Comparatively, we must believe the truth about who Jesus is

Let’s read John 7:25-44.
Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom they seek to kill? But, lo, he speaks boldly, and they say nothing unto him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ? Howbeit we know this man whence he is but when Christ cometh, no man knows whence he is. Then cried Jesus in the temple as he taught, saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not. But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath sent me. Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come. And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than these which this man hath done? The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him; and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take him. Then said Jesus unto them, yet a little while am I with you, and then I go unto him that sent me. Ye shall seek me and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come. Then said the Jews among themselves, whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles? What manner of saying is this that he said, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come? In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. (But this spoke he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.) Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, of a truth this is the Prophet. Others said, this is the Christ. But some said, Shall Christ come out of Galilee? Hath not the scripture said That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was? So, there was a division among the people because of him. And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid hands on him.

In John 7:24, “Stop judging according to outward appearances; rather judge according to righteous judgment.” Context Summary John 7:14–24 is a strong spiritual challenge issued by Jesus against the religious leaders of Jerusalem. Jesus makes the point that obedience is a necessary aspect of learning. I can remember a time; it was like wintertime back east in Massachusetts. My friend Ruth, she had red hair like me, and we were friends. She lived on the 4th floor. Her mom and sisters. Ruth’s sisters were older and made in front of her. She would cry. Then the more we saw each other and talked. We talked more about what wanted to do in life. Ruth wanted to be a teacher. Ruth and I could talk most of the time. She would walk to the store with me when I would work for the elderly ladies. We had a pretty great friendship. One thing I didn’t realize being so young is I should have prayed more. I was young. But one evening, I found out she committed suicide. I was so heart broken. I judged myself for not praying enough for her. Maybe if I had prayed for her more. If only I had prayed for Ruths mom and sisters also. I pretty much judged them and myself. Til one day I talked with her mom. I prayed from my heart for her mom and sister’s, to this day I miss Ruth, her mom and sisters also. But mostly Ruth my friend. I know I will see her in Heaven one day. I would still speak to her family. Then they moved away. “Judge not” is one of the most over-used clichés in discussions of Christianity. When I was a child, I didn’t understand…
It reads in: “Matthew 7:1″Do not judge, or you too will be judged. “. Unfortunately, it’s almost always stated out of context. This gives the impression that Jesus simply said, “Do not judge.” In fact, Jesus often made a point of telling others that they should judge, but only “with right judgment,” as stated here (Deuteronomy 1:16; And I charged your judges at that time, ‘Hear the cases between your brothers, and judge righteously between a man and his brother or the alien who is with him.) (Matthew 7:2–12: For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. And why beholds thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considers not the beam that is in thine own eye? Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and behold, a beam is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye. Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you. Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For everyone that asked receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened. Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give* him a stone? Or if he asks a fish, will he give* him a serpent? If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him? Therefore, all things whatsoever ye that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.). Jesus’ frequent teaching was that we should not be superficial in our assessment of other people. However, it is crucial that we separate what is good from what is evil (Ephesians 5:8–16; For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light: (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;) Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord. And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather* reprove them. For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret. But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleeps, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.).
Let’s read: John 7:14-24
Now about the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple and taught. And the Jews marveled, saying, how knows this man letters, having never learned? Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me. If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. He that speaks of himself seeks his own glory: but he that seeks his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him. Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keeps the law? Why go ye about to kill me? The people answered and said, thou hast a devil: who goes about to kill thee? Jesus answered and said unto them, I have done one work, and ye all marvels. Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision; (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers; and ye on the sabbath day circumcise a man. If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day? Judge not according to the appearance but judge righteous judgment.

In John 7:1–13 describes Jesus’ surprisingly quiet entry to a major Jewish festival. Jesus’s brothers, other biological sons of Mary, tease Him about seeking publicity. Instead, Jesus attends alone, and does not teach or preach publicly until the middle of the week-long festival. We all have engaged with people like this in our life. Which is not surprising, because not everyone knows Jesus is God. So, pray for all those who don’t know. Pray from your heart when you stand in front of your opposers. Just saying. Jesus did! Jesus was one on one with God because He is God. Just saying. On one level, John 7:1-13 functions to set the stage for the rest of John chapters 7 & 8. It also reveals to us some wrong views about Jesus that the Jewish people, including Jesus’ own brothers, had about Him. What does John chapter 7 mean? Chapters 7 and 8 represent the beginning of the end of Jesus’ public ministry. In these passages, He will openly challenge the spiritual errors of the Jewish leaders and declare His own role in the salvation of mankind. In response, the religious officials’ approach to Jesus will turn further towards a plot for murder. John chapter 7 begins after another cross-over in the gospel’s timeline. The happenings of chapter 6 occurred around one year prior to Jesus’ crucifixion. The happenings of chapter 7, centered on the Feast of Booths/Tabernacles, happen about six months later. This feast was among the most important in Jewish tradition and was a hub of religious and cultural activity.

Let’s read: John 7:1-13
After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him. Now the Jews’ feast of tabernacles was at hand. His brethren therefore said unto him, depart hence, and go into Judea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou does’. For there is no man that doeth anything in secret, and he himself seeks to be known openly. If thou do these things, shew thyself to the world. For neither did his brethren believe in him. Then Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet come, but your time is always ready. The world cannot hate you; but me it hated, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil. Go ye up unto this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast: for my time is not yet full come. When he had said these words unto them, he abodes still in Galilee. But when his brethren were gone up, then went he also up unto the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret. Then the Jews sought him at the feast, and said, where is he? And there was much murmuring among the people concerning him: for some said, He is a good man: others said, Nay; but he deceives the people. Howbeit no man spoke openly of him for fear of the Jews.

Father God, I thank You and praise You for the bible. I thank You and praise You that John held faithful to His brother in Christ “Jesus” for the Word of truth is not fiction at all. It Teach’s right from wrong. It Teach’s that not everyone is born to believe the truth. I thank You, praise You and give You all the glory for opening Scripture to my understanding. Thank You that Jesus came to earth and was prepared to suffer the ridicule sneers and shocking accusations from His own family members and His own nation, and to die on the Cross so that by grace through faith I and others might believe on His name and be saved. I thank You and praise You that Jesus came to live among His people and despite being rejected and crucified, is coming back to set up His eternal kingdom on earth. Give me a greater understanding of Your plans and purposes for mankind and myself, so that we may live and work for Your honor and glory. I thank You, praise You and give You all the glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
