Down to Earth

Today is a wonderful gift. I am surrounded by the temptations served up daily to be in despair and woe. The Holy Spirit spoke to me once and told me that all the worries on this Earth are going to seem foolish once we get to heaven and look back. So, I am taking Him at His word. I will resist being drawn into the circling storm that threatens and beckons me to fear. I will resist and stand on the promises of God that he has a perfect plan for my life. I will stand on the promises that my house and myself shall serve the Lord and be preserved. Satan, you can not have my family according to God's foundation of promises that as for me and my house we will serve the Lord. I place my feet firmly on the word of God and shall not moved. I grab the hem of His garment and cry out for salvation and unity where myself and my family members are concerned and I will not lose faith. We may falter and even be invaded by the enemy, but I believe in the power of prayer, so I boldly and humbly ask that the enemy not be given a permanent foothold. I ask that the enemy be brought into docile submission in my camp, for he is outnumbered. I proclaim blessings on every person I am authorized to so by the order ordained by the covenant of being a child of God. So my fervent prayer today is that those who are able to receive from me do! Lord bless every person I have spiritual influence over! And please let me see it, and know it. I need encouraged to fight the good fight today. I do not wish to be arrogant or prideful, but do need confirmation that i am placed here for this reason and that together, with all god provides me, I am being successful at my ordained mission. I thank god for any team work, any glimmer of success today. This day, as for me and my House , we will serve the Lord. And, as always, it it in the name of Jesus! yeshua! My advocate , my redeemer, my kinsman. My heart. my love. my savior.

Zion’s New Name

62 For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent,
    for Jerusalem’s sake I will not remain quiet,
till her vindication shines out like the dawn,
    her salvation like a blazing torch.
2 The nations will see your vindication,
    and all kings your glory;
you will be called by a new name
    that the mouth of the Lord will bestow.
3 You will be a crown of splendor in the Lord’s hand,
    a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
4 No longer will they call you Deserted,
    or name your land Desolate.
But you will be called Hephzibah,[a]
    and your land Beulah[b];
for the Lord will take delight in you,
    and your land will be married.
5 As a young man marries a young woman,
    so will your Builder marry you;
as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride,
    so will your God rejoice over you.

6 I have posted watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem;
    they will never be silent day or night.
You who call on the Lord,
    give yourselves no rest,
7 and give him no rest till he establishes Jerusalem
    and makes her the praise of the earth.

8 The Lord has sworn by his right hand
    and by his mighty arm:
“Never again will I give your grain
    as food for your enemies,
and never again will foreigners drink the new wine
    for which you have toiled;
9 but those who harvest it will eat it
    and praise the Lord,
and those who gather the grapes will drink it
    in the courts of my sanctuary.”

10 Pass through, pass through the gates!
Prepare the way for the people.
Build up, build up the highway!
Remove the stones.
Raise a banner for the nations.

11 The Lord has made proclamation
    to the ends of the earth:
“Say to Daughter Zion,
    ‘See, your Savior comes!
See, his reward is with him,
    and his recompense accompanies him.’”
12 They will be called the Holy People,
    the Redeemed of the Lord;
and you will be called Sought After,
    the City No Longer Deserted.

Jeremiah 17:
7 “But blessed is the one who trusts in the LORD,
whose confidence is in him.
8 They will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit.”

Spiritual Fullness in Christ

Colossians 2

⁶ So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, ⁷rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.

⁸ See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces^[a] of this world rather than on Christ.
