WEEKLY MEMORY VERSE- Psalm 119: 105

"Let's move on to next week's verse.
Oh, it is very easy!! I just looked and we're going to be working on the Queen
of Diamonds from the "Embracing the Word" cards:


Your word is a lamp
to my feet and a light to my path.....Psalm 119:105 (NASB) "


With those words Beth from The Power of Your Love introduce last week memory verse to us.
I never heard of the saying "Queen of Diamonds" But i must say this verse caught my eye already some years ago and for some reason or the other it sticks easily to my mind....
I tried to memorize it this time in the Message version
By your words I can see where I'm going;they throw a beam of light on my dark path!!

The word LIGHT catches my eye always in Gods Word, because i have it in my confirmation verse psalm
27: 1 The LORD is my light and my salvation—
whom shall I fear?
The LORD
is the stronghold of my life—
of whom shall I be afraid?


In our Memory verse it saysYOUR WORD is a LIGHT to my path !!

I looked the word LIGHT up in dictionary.com and found interesting meanings especially when you have also in mind that
THE WORD is also THE LORD.....JESUS HE IS the LIVING WORD!!

16. a gleam or sparkle, as in the eyes. Jesus must be seen in our eyes!!


18. spiritual illumination or awareness; enlightenment.Jesus ...The Word makes us aware enlightens us!!


20. mental insight; understanding.Yes i understand more and more being in the word: His Word and spend time with Him!!


21. lights, the information, ideas, or mental capacities possessed: to act according to one's lights. Yes i act more according to the insights( the light) i get!!


22. a lighthouse. For sure Jesus is our lighthouse our bacon especially in the storms!!


31. to cause (the face, surroundings, etc.) to brighten, esp. with joy, animation, or the like (often fol. by up) Yes it start with me to spread the Word...spread The Love of Jesus!!


32. to guide or conduct with a light. HE is my guide and the Word is....!!


37. to brighten with animation or joy, as the face or eyes This must be the effect of spending time with Jesus in The Word isn't it....!!


38. bring to light, to discover or reveal:NOTHING can stay in the Dark when it comes in contact with Jesus or when it is " hold against the word" ....ALL comes to light!!

44. see the light, a. to come into existence or being. Yes our life get purpose!! ( higher purpose)

Blessings my Friends

This week i READ psalm 4 already and posted it on friday ,it is an EVENINGPRAYER from David.

1John 3 1-7 You can read it is very known.....

My attention was caught by the verses in
Luke 24:36-48 (The Message)

36-41While they were saying all this, Jesus appeared to them and said, "Peace be with you." They thought they were seeing a ghost and were scared half to death. He continued with them, "Don't be upset, and don't let all these doubting questions take over. Look at my hands; look at my feet—it's really me. Touch me. Look me over from head to toe. A ghost doesn't have muscle and bone like this." As he said this, he showed them his hands and feet. They still couldn't believe what they were seeing. It was too much; it seemed too good to be true.

41-43He asked, "Do you have any food here?" They gave him a piece of leftover fish they had cooked. He took it and ate it right before their eyes.

You're the Witnesses
44Then he said, "Everything I told you while I was with you comes to this: All the things written about me in the Law of Moses, in the Prophets, and in the Psalms have to be fulfilled."
45-49He went on to open their understanding of the Word of God, showing them how to read their Bibles this way. He said, "You can see now how it is written that the Messiah suffers, rises from the dead on the third day, and then a total life-change through the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed in his name to all nations—starting from here, from Jerusalem! You're the first to hear and see it. You're the witnesses. What comes next is very important: I am sending what my Father promised to you, so stay here in the city until he arrives, until you're equipped with power from on high."

I am (we are witnesses) we are called up by Jesus ....who made Him self known to us ( isn't it)

Maybe we receive HIM just like the disciples written above....

With un-believe ,scared to dead...we give HIM leftovers ( this broke my heart when i read and realize ..i'm guilthy of this...BUT JESUS still eats it and don't show we are disappointing Him.......!!)

BUT JESUS is not giving up on us...He instructs...teaches...open up THE WORD and HIMSELF to us and CALLS us up to be WITNESSES.He promisses us POWER from ABOVE!

I want to be A WITNESS and pray and hope you also!!

Wish you a Godfilled witnessful week.





SUPER SUNDAY

Link up today at AMAZING GRACE for Super Sunday !
She called us up " To lift up our hands and Praise God today"

God urges us to do this and He knows why He says this because this is like OXYGEN for our soul and spirit.....It uplifts...it carries...it strenghtens...It get's you through all circumstances,It get's you through a tunnel......It brings you in the Light....and if you are in the tunnel, you KNOW Light is at the end......!!

Did David not talk about these circumstances. Did David not approuch NEGATIVE cirumstances in and arround him with.....
  1. LOVING
  2. TRUSTING
  3. PRAYING/WORSHIPPING GOD


Psalm 18
1-2 I love you, God— you make me strong.
God is bedrock under my feet,
the castle in which I live,
my rescuing knight.
My God—the high crag
where I run for dear life
,

hiding behind the boulders,
safe in the granite hideout.

3 I sing to God, the Praise-Lofty,
and find myself safe and saved.


4-5 The hangman's noose was tight at my throat;
devil waters rushed over me.
Hell's ropes cinched me tight;
death traps barred every exit.

6 A hostile world! I call to God,
I cry to God to help me.
From his palace he hears my call;
my cry brings me right into his presence—
a private audience!

7-15 Earth wobbles and lurches;
huge mountains shake like leaves,
Quake like aspen leaves
because of his rage.
His nostrils flare, bellowing smoke;
his mouth spits fire.
Tongues of fire dart in and out;
he lowers the sky.
He steps down;
under his feet an abyss opens up.
He's riding a winged creature,
swift on wind-wings.
Now he's wrapped himself
in a trenchcoat of black-cloud darkness.
But his cloud-brightness bursts through,
spraying hailstones and fireballs.
Then God thundered out of heaven;
the High God gave a great shout,

spraying hailstones and fireballs.
God shoots his arrows—pandemonium!
He hurls his lightnings—a rout!
The secret sources of ocean are exposed,
the hidden depths of earth lie uncovered
The moment you roar in protest,
let loose your hurricane anger.

16-19 But me he caught—reached all the way
from sky to sea; he pulled me out
Of that ocean of hate, that enemy chaos,
the void in which I was drowning.
They hit me when I was down,
but God stuck by me.
He stood me up on a wide-open field;
I stood there saved—surprised to be loved!


20-24 God made my life complete
when I placed all the pieces before him.
When I got my act together,
he gave me a fresh start.
Now I'm alert to God's ways;
I don't take God for granted.
Every day I review the ways he works;
I try not to miss a trick.
I feel put back together,
and I'm watching my step.
God rewrote the text of my life
when I opened the book of my heart to his eyes.

25-27 The good people taste your goodness,
The whole people taste your health,
The true people taste your truth,
The bad ones can't figure you out.
You take the side of the down-and-out,
But the stuck-up you take down a peg.

28-29 Suddenly, God, you floodlight my life;
I'm blazing with glory, God's glory!
I smash the bands of marauders,
I vault the highest fences.

30 What a God! His road
stretches straight and smooth.
Every God-direction is road-tested.
Everyone who runs toward him
Makes it.

31-42 Is there any god like God?
Are we not at bedrock?
Is not this the God who armed me,
then aimed me in the right direction?
Now I run like a deer;
I'm king of the mountain.
He shows me how to fight;
I can bend a bronze bow!
You protect me with salvation-armor;
you hold me up with a firm hand,
caress me with your gentle ways.
You cleared the ground under me
so my footing was firm.
When I chased my enemies I caught them;
I didn't let go till they were dead men.
I nailed them; they were down for good;
then I walked all over them.
You armed me well for this fight,
you smashed the upstarts.
You made my enemies turn tail,
and I wiped out the haters.
They cried "uncle"
but Uncle didn't come;
They yelled for God
and got no for an answer.
I ground them to dust; they gusted in the wind.
I threw them out, like garbage in the gutter.

43-45 You rescued me from a squabbling people;
you made me a leader of nations.
People I'd never heard of served me;
the moment they got wind of me they listened.
The foreign devils gave up; they came
on their bellies, crawling from their hideouts.

46-48 Live, God! Blessings from my Rock,
my free and freeing God, towering!
This God set things right for me
and shut up the people who talked back.
He rescued me from enemy anger,
he pulled me from the grip of upstarts,
He saved me from the bullies.

49-50 That's why I'm thanking you, God,
all over the world.
That's why I'm singing songs
that rhyme your name.
God's king takes the trophy;
God's chosen is beloved.
I mean David and all his children—
always.

And this song so blessed me this week and talked about " Lifthing up our hands and Worshipping God"


Feel free to leave an message that you came over !

QUOTE from LYSA TERKEUST!! (from " A MESS")
I'm convinced there's a reason the first four letters of Messiah spell mess. We need Him. Only the Messiah can take our mess and turn it into a untangled message of hope, forgiveness, and ultimately love.
