For this song they where searching on youtube making themeself ready dad for work and the other for "an day that holds in singing with the mixed-choir in an remembrance service and in the afternoon at an weddingcelebration......"
I believe the thoughts that went trough my head this morning.....are from THE HOLY SPIRIT that leads me...
It surprises me always when i am conciouse aware of it.......As an Christian i take it as an fact because JESUS promised it when He will leave the earth.....I took Him years passed as my SAVIOR.......FRIEND and said "dear Lord i want to follow"....!....So looking back and even daily when you least expects it...in the whirlwind of Life.....an small voice says "I am with YOU ...or He speaks with an voice that can't be described with small.....it is an THUNDER or anything my heart can understand in this moment of time!
Evenzo this morning.....I kept my eyes closed because my body was tired and wanted to sleep ( stayed up way to late...still my habbit..and an "cold"is still lingering...) I even talked with my family mainly with closed eyes....lol...,because they where so energetic.....both my daughter and her Dad are one of an kind...WHEN they wake-up they go full speed........
"I said in myself God TRUSTING YOU.....PRAISING YOU and having FAITH.....is something contagiouse...........!".......It is like FIRE...........This image i got......( picture of the Holy Spirit)......
It WARMS ME UP when i am cold.........
It BURNS ME AT times...in worse scenario my soul my heart needs meanding!!!
REFINERS FIRE......................
I LOVE to LOOK and LISTEN at it .....do you remember campfire's as an child how magical that was??!!My hand reached more intently than lately i am used to do for my BIBLE this time the "GOOD NEWS VERSION"( it is good to read different versions)
Randomly( but that it is never.....the H.S. wanted me to read those verses...) i openend it and my eye fell on....
( I put here the message version)
1 John 5 (The Message)
1 John 5
1-3Every person who believes that Jesus is, in fact, the Messiah, is God-begotten. If we love the One who conceives the child, we'll surely love the child who was conceived. The reality test on whether or not we love God's children is this: Do we love God? Do we keep his commands? The proof that we love God comes when we keep his commandments and they are not at all troublesome.The Power That Brings the World to Its Knees
4-5Every God-begotten person conquers the world's ways. The conquering power that brings the world to its knees is our faith. The person who wins out over the world's ways is simply the one who believes Jesus is the Son of God. 6-8Jesus—the Divine Christ! He experienced a life-giving birth and a death-killing death. Not only birth from the womb, but baptismal birth of his ministry and sacrificial death. And all the while the Spirit is confirming the truth, the reality of God's presence at Jesus' baptism and crucifixion, bringing those occasions alive for us. A triple testimony: the Spirit, the Baptism, the Crucifixion. And the three in perfect agreement.
9-10If we take human testimony at face value, how much more should we be reassured when God gives testimony as he does here, testifying concerning his Son. Whoever believes in the Son of God inwardly confirms God's testimony. Whoever refuses to believe in effect calls God a liar, refusing to believe God's own testimony regarding his Son.
11-12This is the testimony in essence: God gave us eternal life; the life is in his Son. So, whoever has the Son, has life; whoever rejects the Son, rejects life.
The Reality, Not the Illusion
13-15My purpose in writing is simply this: that you who believe in God's Son will know beyond the shadow of a doubt that you have eternal life, the reality and not the illusion. And how bold and free we then become in his presence, freely asking according to his will, sure that he's listening. And if we're confident that he's listening, we know that what we've asked for is as good as ours. 16-17For instance, if we see a Christian believer sinning (clearly I'm not talking about those who make a practice of sin in a way that is "fatal," leading to eternal death), we ask for God's help and he gladly gives it, gives life to the sinner whose sin is not fatal. There is such a thing as a fatal sin, and I'm not urging you to pray about that. Everything we do wrong is sin, but not all sin is fatal.
18-21We know that none of the God-begotten makes a practice of sin—fatal sin. The God-begotten are also the God-protected. The Evil One can't lay a hand on them. We know that we are held firm by God; it's only the people of the world who continue in the grip of the Evil One. And we know that the Son of God came so we could recognize and understand the truth of God—what a gift!—and we are living in the Truth itself, in God's Son, Jesus Christ. This Jesus is both True God and Real Life. Dear children, be on guard against all clever facsimiles.
"WOW " ........
The person who wins out over the world's ways is simply the one who believes Jesus is the Son of God.
My flesh said " SIMPLY easy to say..."!!......My spirit said...."POWER.....VICTORY...."........!!
" Have FAITH...............TRUST.......in the ONE YOU BELIEVE in and CHOOSE TO FOLLOW.................years past.........: I gave you all kind of PROMISES ..it is up to YOU and follow MY COMMANDS....keep them so YOU show YOUR LOVE to me!!!!"
YES LORD....let my prayer BE NOT CONTRARY to YOUR WILL........H.S...lead me.....!!
PSALM 116.....Someone Saved from Death...Praises God.....!!
Psalm 117
Praise God, everybody! Applaud God, all people!
His love has taken over our lives;
God's faithful ways are eternal.
Hallelujah!
Psalm 118 ...A Prayer of Thanks for Victory........
And than THE LONGEST PSALM in the bible
Psalm 119 The Law of the Lord...
You're blessed when you stay on course, walking steadily on the road revealed by God.
You're blessed when you follow his directions,
doing your best to find him.
That's right—you don't go off on your own;
you walk straight along the road he set.
You, God, prescribed the right way to live;
now you expect us to live it.
Oh, that my steps might be steady,
keeping to the course you set;
Then I'd never have any regrets
in comparing my life with your counsel.
I thank you for speaking straight from your heart;
I learn the pattern of your righteous ways.
I'm going to do what you tell me to do; don't ever walk off and leave me.
Obedience to the law of the Lord.
9-16 How can a young person live a clean life?
By carefully reading the map of your Word.
I'm single-minded in pursuit of you;
don't let me miss the road signs you've posted.
I've banked your promises in the vault of my heart
so I won't sin myself bankrupt.
Be blessed, God;
train me in your ways of wise living.
I'll transfer to my lips
all the counsel that comes from your mouth;
I delight far more in what you tell me about living
than in gathering a pile of riches.
I ponder every morsel of wisdom from you,
I attentively watch how you've done it.
I relish everything you've told me of life,
I won't forget a word of it
Happiness in the Law of the Lord
17-24 Be generous with me and I'll live a full life;
not for a minute will I take my eyes off your road.
Open my eyes so I can see
what you show me of your miracle-wonders.
I'm a stranger in these parts;
give me clear directions.
My soul is starved and hungry, ravenous!—
insatiable for your nourishing commands.
And those who think they know so much,
ignoring everything you tell them—let them have it!
Don't let them mock and humiliate me;
I've been careful to do just what you said.
While bad neighbors maliciously gossip about me,
I'm absorbed in pondering your wise counsel.
Yes, your sayings on life are what give me delight;
I listen to them as to good neighbors!
Determination to Obey the Law of The Lord
25-32 I'm feeling terrible—I couldn't feel worse!Get me on my feet again. You promised, remember?
When I told my story, you responded;
train me well in your deep wisdom.
Help me understand these things inside and out
so I can ponder your miracle-wonders.
My sad life's dilapidated, a falling-down barn;
build me up again by your Word.
Barricade the road that goes Nowhere;
grace me with your clear revelation.
I choose the true road to Somewhere,
I post your road signs at every curve and corner.
I grasp and cling to whatever you tell me;
God, don't let me down!
I'll run the course you lay out for me
if you'll just show me how.
A Prayer for understanding
33-40 God, teach me lessons for living
so I can stay the course.
Give me insight so I can do what you tell me—
my whole life one long, obedient response.
Guide me down the road of your commandments;
I love traveling this freeway!
Give me a bent for your words of wisdom,
and not for piling up loot.
Divert my eyes from toys and trinkets,
invigorate me on the pilgrim way.
Affirm your promises to me—
promises made to all who fear you.
Deflect the harsh words of my critics—
but what you say is always so good.
See how hungry I am for your counsel;
preserve my life through your righteous ways!
