Псалом 19. Да услышит тебя Господь в день печали и когда есть стресс

Псалом 19.

¹Начальнику хора. Псалом Давида.

²Да услышит тебя Господь в день печали, да защитит тебя имя Бога Иаковлева.

³Да пошлет тебе помощь из Святилища и с Сиона да подкрепит тебя.

⁴Да воспомянет все жертвоприношения твои и всесожжение твое да соделает тучным.

⁵Да даст тебе [Господь] по сердцу твоему и все намерения твои да исполнит.

⁶Мы возрадуемся о спасении твоем и во имя Бога нашего поднимем знамя. Да исполнит Господь все прошения твои.

⁷Ныне познал я, что Господь спасает помазанника Своего, отвечает ему со святых небес Своих могуществом спасающей десницы Своей.

⁸Иные колесницами, иные конями, а мы именем Господа Бога нашего хвалимся: ⁹они поколебались и пали, а мы встали и стоим прямо.

¹⁰Господи! спаси царя и услышь нас, когда будем взывать [к Тебе].

Psalm 20 God answers you when you are in distress

Psalm 20

For the director of music. A psalm of David.

¹ May the Lord answer you when you are in distress;
    may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.
² May he send you help from the sanctuary
    and grant you support from Zion.
³ May he remember all your sacrifices
    and accept your burnt offerings.
⁴ May he give you the desire of your heart
    and make all your plans succeed.
⁵ May we shout for joy over your victory
    and lift up our banners in the name of our God.

May the Lord grant all your requests.

⁶ Now this I know:
    The Lord gives victory to his anointed.
He answers him from his heavenly sanctuary
    with the victorious power of his right hand.
⁷ Some trust in chariots and some in horses,
    but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.
⁸ They are brought to their knees and fall,
    but we rise up and stand firm.
⁹ Lord, give victory to the king!
    Answer us when we call!

What is your desire for today?

You are in your car driving home. Thoughts wander to the game you want to see or meal you want to eat, when suddenly a sound unlike any you've ever heard fills the air. The sound is high above you. A trumpet? A choir? A choir of trumpets? You don't know, but you want to know. So you pull over, get out of your car, and look up. As you do, you see you aren't the only curious one. The roadside has become a parking lot. Car doors are open, and people are
Staring at the sky. Shoppers are racing out of the grocery store. The Little League baseball game across the street has come to a halt. Players and parents are searching the clouds. And what they see, and what you see, has never before been seen.

As if the sky was a curtain, the drapes of the atmosphere part. A brilliant light spills onto the earth. There are no shadows. None.

From every hue ever seen and a million more never seen. Riding on the flow is an endless fleet of angels. They pass through the curtains one myriad at a time, until they occupy every square inch of the sky.

North. South. East. West.

Thousands of angels rise and fall in unison, and over the sound of the trumpets, you can hear the cherubim and seraphim chanting, Holy , holy , holy.. The final flank of angels is followed by twenty-four elders and a multitude of souls who join the angels in worship.

Suddenly, the heavens are quiet. All is quiet. The angels turn, you turn, the entire world turns and there He is Jesus.

Through waves of light you see the silhouetted figure of Christ the King. He is atop a great stallion, and the stallion is atop a billowing cloud. He opens his mouth, and you are surrounded by his declaration:

I am the Alpha and the Omega.

The angels bow their heads. The elders remove their crowns. And before you as Figure so consuming that you know, instantly you know: Nothing else matters. Forget stock markets and school reports. Sales meetings and football games. Nothing is newsworthy. All that mattered, matters no more. For Christ has come.

This morning when the Lord opened a window to Heaven, he saw me, and he asked: My child, what is your greatest desire for today?

I responded: 'Lord please; take care of my family, my friends, the person who is reading this message , their family and their special friends. They deserve it and I love them very much'.

The love of God is like the ocean, you can see its beginnings but not its end.

Heaven's Grocery Store

Heaven's Grocery Store
I was walking down life's highway a long time ago,
One day I saw a sign that read Heaven's Grocery Store,
As I got a little closer the door came open wide,
And when I came to myself I was standing inside.

I saw a host of angels they were standing everywhere,
One handed me a basket and said my child shop with care,
Everything a Christian needed was in that Grocery Store,
And all you couldn't carry you could come back the next
day for more.

First I got some Patience, Love was in the same row,
Further down was Understanding, you need that everwhere
you go,
I got a box or two of Wisdom, a bag or two of Faith,
I just couldn't miss the Holy Ghost for it was all over
the place.

I stopped to get some Strength and Courage to help me run
this race,
By then my basket was getting full, but I remembered I
needed some Grace.

I didn't forget Salvation, for Salvation that was free,
So, I tried to get enough of that to save both you and me,
Then I started up to the counter to pay my grocery bill,
For I thought I had everything to do My Master's Will.

As I went up the aisle I saw Prayer and I just had to
put that in,
For I knew when I stepped outside, I would run right into sin.
Peace and Joy were plentiful, they were on the last shelf,
Song and Praise were hanging near so I just helped myself.

Then, I said to the Angel now how much do I owe?
He just smiled and said, just take them everywhere you go,
Again I smiled at him and said, how much, now do I really
Owe?

He smiled again and said, "MY CHILD JESUS PAID YOUR BILL A
LONG TIME AGO."

Dancing with God

When I meditated on the word Guidance,

I kept seeing "dance" at the end of the word.  

I remember reading that doing God's will is a lot like dancing.  

When two people try to lead, nothing feels right. 

The movement doesn't flow with the music, and everything is quite uncomfortable and jerky.  

When one person realizes that, and lets the other lead, both bodies begin to flow with the music. 

One gives gentle cues, perhaps with a nudge to the back or by pressing Lightly in one direction or another.  

It's as if two become one body, moving beautifully. 

The dance takes surrender, willingness, and attentiveness from one person and gentle guidance and skill from the other.  

My eyes drew back to the word Guidance.  

When I saw "G": I thought of God, followed by "u" and "i".  

"God, "u" and "i" dance."  

God, you, and I dance.  

As I lowered my head, I became willing to trust that I would get guidance about my life..  

Once again, I became willing to let God lead...  

My prayer for you today is that God's blessings and mercies are upon you on this day and every day.  

May you abide in God, as God   abides in you. 

Dance together with God, trusting God to lead and to guide you through each season of your life.  

This prayer is powerful and there is nothing attached.  

If God has done anything for  you in your life,   

please share this message with someone else.  

There is no cost but a lot of rewards; so let's continue to pray for one another.  

 And I Hope You Dance Through 2014

 

 

 

Biblical numbers --- seven

And seven priests shall bear seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark. But the seventh day you shall march around the city seven times, and the priests shall blow the trumpets. (Joshua 6:4)

In the Bible, numbers have spiritual significance. Of all the biblical numbers, seven is the most familiar because it appears about 600 times. Seven denotes spiritual perfection. It means divine fulness, completeness and totality. It comes from a Hebrew word meaning “to be full,” “to be satisfied,” and “to have enough.

Many times seven is important as a symbol rather than as an actual number. Whenever you read seven, it does not always literally mean seven things or seven occurrences. It is symbolic of the whole or the completion or the ideal situation or the perfect picture of things. Seven constitutes a complete cycle.

One of the most profound examples of the use of the symbolic number seven is related to the fall of Jericho in the Joshua 6:1-20. Notice how many sevens appear in the scripture above. The use of the number seven simply means fulfillment or enough. Enough priests blew the trumpets and enough people marched around the walls enough times for the walls to come tumbling down.

Revelation, the last book of the Bible that completes the word of God contains more sevens than any of the other books. There are seven churches, seven seals, seven trumpets, seven personages, seven vials, seven woes, and seven new things. Additionally, there are seven glories of the Son of Man, and seven blessings. The word “Jesus” is found seven times, “Jesus Christ” seven times and the wrath of God seven times.

In just one verse in Isaiah 11:2, the Holy Spirit rested on Jesus in seven distinct ways: Spirit of God, wisdom, understanding, counsel, power, knowledge, and fear of God. Our desire should be that the Holy Spirit will rest within us in the same seven ways.
