Who Would Of Thought

Isaiah 53:1-5

"Who believes what we've heard and seen?

Who would have thought God's saving power would look like this?

The servant grew up before God—a scrawny seedling,

a scrubby plant in a parched field.

There was nothing attractive about him,

nothing to cause us to take a second look.

He was looked down on and passed over, a man who suffered, who knew pain firsthand.

One look at him and people turned away.

We looked down on him, thought he was scum.

But the fact is, it was our pains he carried—our disfigurements, all the things wrong with us.

We thought he brought it on himself,

that God was punishing him for his own failures.

But it was our sins that did that to him,

that ripped and tore and crushed him—our sins!

He took the punishment, and that made us whole.

Through his bruises we get healed."

"Who Would of Thought," ... That God Himself would of came down here to this mess we as men/women had made, become One like created man in His Image, and lived in all this mess like us... He fell in love with us, agreed to do as His Father needed Him to do, "He Took The Punishment, and made Us Whole like Him..."

Thank You Jesus!

Brand Plucking

Zechariah 3:1-2

"THEN [the guiding angel] showed me Joshua the high priest standing beforethe Angel of the Lord, and Satan standing at Joshua’s right hand to be his adversary and to accuse him.

And the Lord said to Satan, The Lord rebuke you, O Satan! Even the Lord, Who [now and habitually] chooses Jerusalem, rebuke you! Is not this [returned captive Joshua] a brand plucked out of the fire?"

Satan was told by God; "Back Off, Satan." Jerusalem was chosen by The Lord, and Joshua, Is a "Brand Plucked Out," of Fire!

Clinging For Eternity

John 3:16-17

"For God so greatly loved and dearly prized the world that He [even] gave up His only begotten (unique) Son, so that whoever believes in (trusts in, clings to, relies on) Him shall not perish (come to destruction, be lost) but have eternal (everlasting) life.

For God did not send the Son into the world in order to judge (to reject, to condemn, to pass sentence on) the world, but that the world might find salvation and be made safe and sound through Him."

Growing up as a Baptist, you learned to memorize John 3:16; "For God So Loved The World That He Gave Them..."

Very early in life I heard from my mom Jesus Died, because He loved me...

It is hard to wrap our brains around the faith that God Is Good, and Heaven Is Real.... But, Jesus did in fact come, show us God's healing love, was not selective, and then went to hell to get, back what was God's, and all those who were waiting there in Paradise for their souls to be redeemed... 

Now He will be returning to Rule here with those Who He Redeemed... Who relies on, Clings to, and trust in His Love for them....

That be me!

Who Accepts Me

3 John 1:7-9

"For these [traveling missionaries] have gone out for the Name’s sake (for His sake) and are accepting nothing from the Gentiles (the heathen, the non-Israelites).

So we ourselves ought to support such people [to welcome and provide for them], in order that we may be fellow workers in the Truth (the whole Gospel) and cooperate with its teachers.

I have written briefly to the church; but Diotrephes, who likes to take the lead among them and put himself first, does not acknowledge my authority and refuses to accept my suggestions or to listen to me."

This is just me, PJCopty, wanting to share with All of you in ministry with me all over the world. Those of you who know me as Pastor PAULA, get to have more one on one with me, like John is saying here... Then there are those who only know me by what Jesus Does through me as I yield to Him in worship. 

So, it is really up to each person to test my spirit and see if I am of God are not... 

But, John is dressing an issue of lying and taking goods not for Jesus Namesake, but for their own self important gain... God forbid if I do do this to you... You deserve to see Jesus in me, I deserve Him Who died to bring me to The Father by Him, and we all deserve Heaven... Because it was made just for US...

One Of A Kind Designs

Exodus 24:7

Then he took the Book of the Covenant and read in the hearing of the people; and they said, All that the Lord has said we will do, and we will be obedient.

Repurposing things a making a new design with them, has become a new excitement in my life with Christ.

Over the world the terror is kill something... Mine is, raise something from the dead...

The Lord Is Roaring

Joel 3:16

The Lord will thunder and roar from Zion and utter His voice from Jerusalem, and the heavens and the earth shall shake; but the Lord will be a refuge for His people and a stronghold to the children of Israel.

I can Hear The Lion Roaring as He Is coming for me!

Let Us Have A Talk

Isaiah 41:1Amplified Bible (AMP)

41" Listen in silence before Me, O islands and regions bordering on the sea! And let the people gather and renew their strength [for the argument; let them offer their strongest arguments]! Let them come near, then let them speak; let us come near together for judgment [and decide the point at issue between us concerning the enemy advancing from the east]."

The Lord here has called up a king from the east, [Cyrus], who He called in and roused him up against them. He was asking His people to come and disgust the issues of why He is sending this amy. Jesus Is my Lord, and He had some things He needed to have me listen to.  Just like He did for Israel in Isaiah's time. A great and mighty army was being stirred up against them by The Lord to get them to come to Him so He could talk to them about His Feelings.

Isaiah 40:5-6; is the prophet telling them by God, "...The Glory of the Lord will appear, and all humanity together will see it, for The Mouth of the Lord has spoken It. ...A Voice was saying 'cry out!' ...Another said, 'What Shall I cry out?' ...'All humanity is grass, and All it's goodness [kindness] is like the flower of the field.' "

Would our kindness be as His? Could we out shine The Light? Can we continue with resentments... As staying slaves to darkness, and life fading out of us because of lack of Son... Verse 7: "The grass withers, the flowers fade when the breath of The Lord blows on them; indeed, the people are grass."

Will we be able to stand up against His "Breath of Words" when He speaks His Word in judgment... ? Ask yourself to consider, as He said, disgust the issue ______________.

Lord God, Father In Jesus' Mighty Name, I bring this issue_________________, and I ask you to bring up out of every fiber of my being in You, which is spirit, soul, and my body of RNA/DNA, the origin of this root, and I want to deal with it in front of you. I want to choose the correct behavior that brings Your Glory Lord into my every moment situations and circumstances. Father I believe that Jesus, Your Son, has Shined His Light into this darkness at the Cross, freeing me of All curses, and Him becoming that curse for me. I choose You, over that issue. I forgive myself for coming into agreement with resentment and the voice of devaluing me, and now I see That Great glory Light causing The Love of God to be shed abroad in my heart by The Holy Ghost, giving me a new heart, and renewing within me a new way of thinking which Is High and Seated With Christ. 

Thank You Jesus for this Talk,

What Do You Do When God Ask you Too Wait

Psalms 55:1-23, is David speaking too The Lord in a song full manner. David is ask by The Lord too wait till He puts his enemies where He wants them. While serving God in his heart, he keeps an open song too make his point known. 

While we walk in Eternity on earth, we will be in open combat with the things that set themselves up against Jesus Christ Lordship. Like a king who God anointed, but ask him too wait till He puts him there on the throne and the people see him as God wants him seen. David's throne and rule was established by The Word, Jesus completed that Word forever in Himself. He will complete every Word of His in us just as The Promise Is said on The Cross; "It Is Finished," meaning, I Have completed you.

Psalms 54:1-2; "Save me, O God, by Thy Name, and judge me by Thy Strength 2) Hear my prayer, O God; give ear too the Words of my mouth."
