The efficacious Atonement of Jesus Christ on my behalf

When Jesus made Atonement in His Blood on the Cross, 2000 years ago, once for all times; He Bore Such Anguish not known to man; except experientally known to the Son of Man! Psalm 22:14: "I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint; my heart is like wax; it is melted within my breast;" 1 Peter 2:24: "He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed." When Jesus made Atonement on the Cross, when He Cried, "My God, My God...to..." it is Finished!" We just don't know the Spiritual, physical, mental, emotional, anguish of soul He suffered; nonetheless, there was such eternal, suffocating, spiritual, physical, emotional, mental anguish of soul He suffered! Such as, experiencing God's Wrath, not known to Man; except for those who are suffering God's wrath now, in Hell for rejecting Jesus Christ! When our sins were carried to Christ on the Cross and imputed to Him by God the Father; Jesus Experienced such a great sense of God's wrath, that He never experienced or ever known before, throughout the 33 years of His life on earth; it was shockingly imputed to Him, more than jumping in a pool of ice water without having the knumbing effect. A shock factor to His mental, spiritual, emotional, physical and soul anguish of God's wrath laid upon Him, that no tongue could tell and no pen can write about such anguish! For He never experienced our sin cursed nature, until it was laid upon Him in imputation, then the Divine Holiness, Justice, righteous nature of God's wrath was executed on Him, a double imputation that He never experienced in His life until it was laid upon Him on the cross! The efficacy of His Atonement cost Him such anguish and pouring out of His life blood; for while He shockingly sufferred the pain and anguish of our sins and condemnation, with every blow and strike of God's wrath causing His body to shockingly pulsate a response of great suffocating pain, anguish and suffering of soul, spirit, mental and emotional anguish unknown to man; Yet, at the same time power proceeded from Him in His Blood flow for our healing; we just don't really know the extent of the cost! Until we see the full benefit in efficacy of His Blood in the Redemption of our body, soul and spirit glorified in Jesus' Heavenly glory! Indeed the true nature of imputation when He bore our sins in His Body on the Cross! Isaiah 53:4-6: "4Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. 5But he was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds we are healed. 6All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned—every one—to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all." 1 Peter 2:24: "He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed." Hence, the imputation of our sin's of bearing our sin-cursed nature in His Body, suffering the curse and wrath we deserved; removed, expitiated, exponged, circumsized and cut away our sin cursed nature, once and for all; He dealt our sin cursed nature in His Body and offering of His Body and Blood a Living Sacrifice, a final blow! When He underwent, and suffered such spiritual, mental and physical, emotional anguish of soul in His pain and suffering, once for all! Never to deal with it ever again, like a surgical procedure He cut away the cancer of our sin nature. Indeed, true nature of expitiation and exponging our sin from God's eyes. Psalm 103:12: "as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us." Heb 9:26: “But now once at the consummation of the ages He has been manifested to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself” He Bore in His Body, when He offered it a Living Sacrifice, the Wrath of God and not only did He shiockingly expeience and suffer the suffocating pain of God's Holy Wrath, but such endurance of each shocking stroke of the wrath of God kept on inflicting Him and striking Him over and over again on the Cross, as He absorbed it, His total body pulsated with each striking blow of God's wrath, until it was fully absorbed and extinguished in full appeasement making propitiation of regaining the Favor of God His Father; Such a regainment of Divine favor was not for Himself, but for all those God the Father gave to the Son to make Atonement; for the favor of God was upon His only begotten Son, even when He was making Atonement and suffering God's wrath on our behalf! for He who knew no sin became sin for us that we will become the righteous nature and favor of God's satisfied Eyes upon us 2 Corinthians 5:21; with the same Favor He had for the Son when Jesus walked this earth. Appeasing and satisfying and making full vindication of God's wrath, till there was no more wrath to bear by God's Hand; 'till there was no more stroke of eternal wrath to be had, by God the Father; for there was full propitiation on our behalf, indeed, on the Cross in His Body and Blood a Living Sacrifice! Romans 3:23-25: 23 [†] for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 [†] and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus , 25 whom God put forward as a propitiation by his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God’s righteousness, For the Consequence of such an Atonement brought Us Shalom, peace and Reconciliation back to God, in the Blood Of The Cross of Christ. For the sin cursed nature not only separated us from God, but we had great hostility against God, that it truly innately inherited God's just and righteous wrath; When the wrath was appeased through propitiation in the offering of the Body and Blood of Christ; God had only but to bring us back and have peace with Him through the Blood of Jesus Body on His Cross! For in His Atonement we received not only reconciliation but Adoption as sons and daughters in Christ Blood. Romans 5:10: For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled , shall we be saved by his life. Colossians 1:20-22: "and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of his cross. 21 And you, who once were alienated and hostile in mind, a doing evil deeds, 22he has now reconciled in his body of flesh by his death, in order to present you holy and blameless and above reproach before him. For the Efficacy of such an Atonement brought us full Redemption in Body, Soul and spirit. For the ransom price of our our bondage to the sin cursed nature set us free in Christ's Blood, for our total being is Redeemed in Body Soul and Spirit In The Blood Of Jesus! Jesus purchased my Redemption from my bondage to my sin cursed nature and bondage to the Jaws of death, that held me fast and I could not set myself free from; Jesus purchased my freedom in His Blood and Redeemed me back from the slavery of my Sin cursed nsture, the clutches of Death and Hell. And I am set free, not limited to the Creator creature Distinction, but more than that, Adopted as His child for my Father and Son relationship all by the Redemption of the Blood of Jesus! A true Redemption, indeed, for all Eternity! I Peter 1:14-20: As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance, 15but as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, 16since it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.” 17And if you call on him as Father who judges impartially according to each one’s deeds, conduct yourselves with fear throughout the time of your exile, 18knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, 19but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot. 20He was foreknown before the foundation of the world but was made manifest in the last times for the sake of you." Hebrews 8:15: “a death has taken place for the redemption of the transgressions In Jesus Christ finished work on the Cross of Calvary, in making Atonement of offering His Body and Blood a Living Sacrifice with such agony, anguish, pain and suffering in body, soul and spirit, of Divine anguish, pain and suffering, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and physically. Such a full Atonement was not a walk in the park, for it was of an eternal cost in His Blood that no one has ever experienced or ever will! O, the anguish, the pain, the suffering, the shocking experience for Jesus to receive our sin and the wrath of God on our behalf, was experientially realized in the earthly reality in History 2000 years ago on the Cross, for my Eternal life and Heavenly reality on earth as it is in heaven, in my life, in this temporal realm! Such an efficacious Atonement in His Blood was inclusive of the imputation of my sins in His Body; Such an Efficacious Atonement was inclusive of the expitation, exponging, circumsizing and removal of my sins, my sin-cursed nature and eternal condemnation; Such an Efficacious Atonement was inclusive of the Divine infliction of God's wrath in Propitiation and appeasement of it, where there is no more Condemnation for me, for being in Christ Jesus through Faith. Such an Efficacious Atonement was inclusive of My Reconciliation back to God, a Reconciliation of shalom and Peace with God. Such An efficacious Atonement was inclusive of my Redemption in His Blood and set me free from the tyranny of my sin-cursed nature and free me from the Jaws of sin, death and Hell! Such an efficacious Atonement brought me my Adoption as God my heavenly Father's son, through the Blood of His only Begotten Son, no longer a slave or limited to Creator, creature distinction of relating; but a Father and son relationship through the Blood of Jesus! Such an efficacious Atonement was inclusive of my pardon and forgiveness and cleansing in the Blood of Jesus. Such an Efficacious Atonement was inclusive of New Life in Christ, A life of Eternal life in Knowing God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit! Indeed, it is Finished by Divine Sovereign omnipotence and Foreloveimg Grace of The Father and Son! Henceforth, He is Risen, by Divine Sovereign omnipotence! I rest my Faith in the Atonement of The sinless Blood of the Lamb and the Lion of Judah, who conquered sin, death and the Devil on my Behalf! .

The spiritually dead do not believe in Jesus Christ! 2 Corinthians 4: 3-4

2 Corinthians 4: 3-4
3And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, 4in whose case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving so that they might not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.

The unbelievers do not believe in Jesus Christ because they do not see their need for Jesus Christ; they do not see their need for Jesus Christ because they do not see their sinfulness, wrechted and depraved nature before God; they do not see their sin and need for being saved, because they do not know what sin is and the consequence thereof; they do not know what sin is, because they do not see God's Holy Nature and Justice and wrath to punish them for breaking God's Law; hence, being blinded to God's wrath, they do not see God's great Love for which He Loved us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ Died for the ungodly, Romans 5:6. The unbeleivers do not believe in Jesus Christ because they do not believe they need to be saved from the wrath of God; the unbelievers do not love God, because they hate God; the unbelievers hate God because they are dead to God and have a great need to be Born-Again by the Holy Spirit, and be made alive by the Holy Spirit, in order to see their great need for Salvation from the great miry depths of their sinful condition and their need for Jesus to Save them from the wrath of God abiding upon them now and finally in the Lake of Fire for all eternity! They will believe then, but it will be too late when the eternal wrath of God is unveiled in the Lake of fire and great torment; they will believe then, when the afflictions of their eternal torment is constsntly abiding on them and the smoke of their torment is forever rising, for the consequence of their sinful nature ruling their lives this side of eternity!
Don't you know? The unbeliever needs to be Saved from the Wrath of God constantly abiding!

Jesus was A Living Sacrifice on the cross, not a dead sacrifice, A living Sacrifice, where the fountain of His Blood flowed!

Jesus was A Living Sacrifice on the cross, not a dead sacrifice, A living Sacrifice, where the fountain of His Blood flowed!

John 19:30:
When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said, “It is finished,” and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.

Jesus said, "It is finished," on the cross! Not Descended into hell and declared it is finished!

John records in this account, the exact words that Jesus spoke on the cross before He breathed His last breath and gave up His spirirt. John did not focus on the manner in which Jesus spoke; John was focusing not on the volume of Jesus in His last words, not on the scream, shout, or in writhing pain when Jesus said, " it is finished." But John emphasized, Jesus in fulfillment, in great relief said, " it is finished,"and bowed his head and breathed His last.

Matthew, however, records the tone and manner in which Jesus spoke His words, but
did not record what the words were. But Matthew seems to emphasize the volume and the scream of His last words when Matthew recods, "And Jesus cried out, again with a loud voice and yielded up his spirit." Matthew 27:50.

When Jesus said, "it is finished!"
He reaffirmed the Love God the Father had for Him on the Cross, after Jesus made propitiation in His Blood to God the Father and appeased the wrath of God for the sins of God's people!

Jesus was our living Sacrifice on the Cross!
Jesus suffered the wrath of God on the Cross in His Shed Blood, He was our Living Sacrifice, He did not descend to Hell to suffer, He suffered on the Cross the wrath of God in His Shed Blood, while physically Alive! And when He declared, "It is finished!" He completed and made propritiation appeased the wrath of God in His Blood, sprinkling His Blood on the Altar and profferring in Liabation of His Blood before God the Father in the Holy of Holies not made with Human hands! He vindicated the justice and Holiness of God the Father for the sins of God's people, that they would not suffer wrath!
He declared it is finished on the Cross! And it was truly finished and He will make no more sacrifice in His Blood, for it was finished on the Cross in His living Sacrifice of His Shed Blood! And Said, "It is finished!" And Entered into His Rest, in bringing many sons and daughters to glory!

Hebrews 9: 11-14:

"11But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and more perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation) 12he entered once for all into the holy places, not by means of the blood of goats and calves but by means of his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption."
13For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the sprinkling of defiled persons with the ashes of a heifer, sanctify for the purification of the flesh, 14how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works to serve the living God..."

Hebrews 9: 15:
"15 Therefore he is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, since a death has occurred that redeems them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant..."

Hebrews 9: 22-28:
"...22 Indeed, under the law almost everything is purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins.

23Thus it was necessary for the copies of the heavenly things to be purified with these rites, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these. 24For Christ has entered, not into holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true things, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf. 25Nor was it to offer himself repeatedly, as the high priest enters the holy places every year with blood not his own, 26for then he would have had to suffer repeatedly since the foundation of the world. But as it is, he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. 27And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment, 28so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him."

A little while longer and I will see Him!

A little while longer and I will see Him!

John 16:16
"A little while, and you will see me no longer; and again a little while, and you will see me.”

Jesus spoke to His Apostles before His crucifixion, saying "A little while longer and you will see me no longer..."

See me no longer...He had to go to the place unseen, He had to take care of that which we could never do apart from Him!

He had to tread the wine press alone!

He had to go to the place unseen, to the outside of the gates of the earthly temple, to the place of the Heavenly Temple and offer His own blood in the Real Holy of Holies that the earthly one was a mere shadow to the Heavenly one;

The place of the true substance of the Holy of Holies where the High Priest after the order of Melchizedek, offered His own blood in the Holy of Holy Place; where God the Father's glory presides, who dwells in an unapproachable radiance of light;

He had to face God the Father and look into God the Father's eye to behold Him, who no man can see and live;

He had to see His Father, and watch God the Father turn His face from Him!


That is when He cried, with such a loud cry, that cut through the atmosphere and went straight upwards to Heaven, where God the Father heard His cry, but Had to turn His face as He crushed His only begotten Son, and Jesus did cry, ELI; ELI; LAMA SABACHTHANI, My God! My God! Why has thou forsaken me?


It was there, the place where we can never enter, the place where we see Him no longer, the place where our eyes cannot see, ears cannot not hear, hands cannot touch, and feet cannot walk in, and expect to exit it and live through it, we could never enter that place and ever come back and expect to come back and live, we would but die in that place of God's great Holy, pure nature of unapproachable light, brighter than the sun!


Jesus only entered the place where we see Him no longer, Jesus, with His own blood, did He offer and sprinkle the altar of Sacrifice, before God the Father!


And did God the Father lay on the head of His only begotten Son with a great smiting, the penalty of our own sinfulness with such great wrath!


Yet, the lamb of God endured it with great Love to see His Father's Love turn back to His Son and with great appeasement was God the Father's justice and Holiness ever so satisfied and propitiated!


And did God the Father, who could not bear to see Him no longer, turn back to Jesus and again a little while longer beheld His only begotten Son, as God the Father, called Jesus out of the tomb in His Resurrection, saying, "Jesus, My only Begotten Son, Come Forth!"


Forever to give Him the glory He shared with His Son before the world began, and ever look on His Son and see Him again with Great Favor!


What can be said of this verse, except that a little while longer you will see Him no longer--such words of redemption by Jesus!


That Jesus would really say, a little while longer and you will see your sin no longer for my blood will be shed and spilled to wash away your sins!

"And again, a little while longer and you will see me"


Jesus really said, "And Again!" A little while longer and you will see me for His words were saying, I am giving you the ability to see me face to face and you will live and not die as you behold the face of God because, Again, a little while longer you will see me!


Because He lives again, and is Resurrected from the dead, exiting the tomb, out of the deep darkness of death!


Because He lives, I live to behold Him and see God the Father and Live and not die!
For I am clothed in the Resurrected life and nature of Jesus' Holiness and righteousness!


For if I were to say a little while longer you will see me no more...it would end there!


And I would be under an eternal sentence of great judgment and torment of God's wrath constantly abiding on me!


Apart from Him I will never come back from that place of dread, for apart from Him who said, a little while longer and you will see me!


I have great Joy that Jesus did not leave it at a little while longer and you will see me no longer...but spoke words of His great faithfulness, hope and joy when He completed His sentence and said,



"And again, a little while longer and you will see me!"

Infinite wonder Infinite design the stars made for me; The Cross, My Salvation Divine! A Poem By Joseph Valentini:

A poem of reflection and Wonderment of my Creator The Alpha and Omega; I am fearfully and wonderfully made, by His infinite design to glory in His Greatness!

Infinite wonder infinite design the stars made for me; The Cross, My Salvation Divine!
A Poem By Joseph Valentini:

The Alpha and Omega, made me fearfully and Wonderfully, by His infinite design!

Out of the infinite number of the stars, I made them one by one with infinite design; for you to ponder and wonder, how unique how glorious, one by one, I made them; yet, countless, the untold  numbers for your finite mind; nonetheless, for my glory, for you to repine; how infinite Sublime in beauty was my design;  each one unique, each one glorious, each one the sum total measureless, by my Fiat, spoken, Created by my Infinite design!

By my Fiat, Created, I made you; I said,  "Let Us" to my Father and to The Holy Spirit, make all, out of the untold numbers, like sands of the seashore, yet from the dust of the ground was One, your first father created: Adam, and I breathed in his nostrils, Life! From my Created out of nothing and infinite design;

Before the Created, I planned all things, Eternally purposed, Predestined for my glory of infinite design!

Henceforth, in the process, I made Adam sleep, and out of the twelve, I took one from Adam and made him complete; Be fruitful and multiply, was my Decree, and out of the One complete, was countless numbers, measureless, like the sand of  the seashore too many for the finite mind to count!

Notwithstanding, the measureless numbers, it still remains, it came down to you! Uniquely and fearfully, wonderfully made!

But from your finite, incomprehension,  did your rebellion replace; my infinite glory, adoration and worship for sin was found in you, written all over your face!

Oh, how foolish to think, a leaf of a fig could cover your nakedness, sin's guilt and shame; how foolish to think, hiding behind the bush, would you hide your presence from me!

Nonetheless, sin did cause your curse, you fallen nature, sin, shame, guilt, death and disgrace!

Eternal separation, I cast you out of my presence, hidden from your sight; no longer in communion with me, All Three!

You could not redeem yourself, in every attempt, always falling short, never good enough for perfections end;

Don't you comprehend! Imperfect, fallen, sin cursed nature, ends up already Condemned, with my wrath eternally abiding, with you unable to appease and satisfy!

What a cruel dilemma, what a hopeless fight!  With no one to answer, nor  can deliver with all their might!

Yet, mercy was still abiding hid from your Sight! Yet, seen in the garment of Blood, I provide for you to cover your nakedness, sin, guilt and shame!

Out of the one sin, came many, finite minds could not decipher; finite minds could not count, too infinite in measure for finite minds to comprehend to know how to abolish, remove and do away with forever,  that you would be approved acceptable behind the leaves and bushes, a futile attempt!

Your sin cursed condition, sins multiplied to infinite measure for your eternal condemnation that you could not get out;

Nonetheless,  My mercy of infinite measure, broke through your darkness and sin cursed condition, no longer hid from sight, but displayed on my predetermined tree cut down for me, made into a cross of wood, for me! With every pounding of the hammer to the head of the nine inch nails in my foot and hands; while a crown of thorns still on my head!

Up, up and up hoisted on high, that mount of Golgatha, called Calvary, such a mount, shaped like a skull, the emblem of death, for me to finally dealt out: sin, death and the Devil's final Blow!

In such a hoisting, to be lifted on High, for all men to look to me for their Salvations end; from God's  wrath abiding to appeasement and reception of Divine Love,   AGAPE! AGAPE! The source of my unconditoned Grace!

My infinite Blood flowed freely with infinite measure to clothed your infinite nakedness, sin's darkness and death, that you be cleansed by my infinite Blood to clothe  you with a robe of purity, white lightening, pure, bright and full of my healing Presence, my Countenance to Shine on you with Divine favor, forever Sublime!

That in my Resurrection new life to find; adopted Child to Cry out, " Abba, Father," you made me thine! All for your glory forever thine, God My Father, forever glorified, to sing your praises forever to repine, of your sublime Mercy, Grace and Love Divine!

Your  Foreloving Love for me, before your fiat Created,   by infinite Design;
Now to glory, in the Shalom of Harmony and Peace with God My Father, Son and Holy Spirit, forever with your Divine Majesty, Eternal Trinity, all three in One;

Wonderful Relationship, wonderful communion with God who made me, by infinite design, to declare Your glory forever with you, indeed, fearfully and wonderfully transformed into the Image of your Only Begotten Son! By infinite Design!

What finite mind could ponder? What tongue declare? Your infinite glory to make me immortal to never Die, all by infinite wonder and glory, by Divine infinite Design!

Jesus is not flattered with empty confessions to His Name

Jesus is not flattered with empty confessions to His Name That The Father Bestowed upon Him!
The Name of Jesus Christ comes with Power to destroy the works of Satan for in the name of Jesus is the mighty person of Jesus Christ who conquered the penalty of sin, Death and the Devil!
Luke 4:34-35:
"Ha! What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God.” 35 But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent and come out of him!”
The name of Christ and His Titles will not be content with empty confessions of flattery so as to leave the workers of iniquity and of Satan alone to continue in the status quo of their iniquity, darkness and wickedness of the sin cursed nature; for the very purpose Christ came was to destroy the works of the Devil.
The Titles of Christ are not mere empty words without power conferred upon Him; for in, and behind, the Titles of Christ is the mighty Person of Jesus who came with destructive power to deliver His people from Satan's grip and powerful hold and from this dark corrupt world of Satan's reign, from sin, corruption, decay and death!
For Christ will not be flattered by acknowledgment of empty confessions to His glorious Titles from Satan and wicked men (The Titles conferred upon Him by God The Father), He did not become the incarnate Son of God to seek glory to have men and Satan confess His Divine Titles and name that the Father bestowd upon Him, so as to cunningly decieve Christ into a stay of execution of His power to withold destroying the works of the Devil; for Christ came for this very purpose but to Destroy the works of the devil and deliver His people from their sin and bondage, that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow and tongue confess Jesus is Lord to the glory of God the Father, for when you acknowledge the name of Jesus you can be sure that the power of Christ will be unleashed for your deliverance!
Do not think that confessing the title of Christ alone would prevent Christ to manifest His power, for in Jesus Christ name, there is great power of His mighty Person unleashed that will reveal His glory to destroy the works of the Devil and set His people free from the tyranny of Satan and that His glory will never be shrouded in the darkness and evil of Satan and wicked men.
Christ will not be flattered by empty acknowledgments of his title and disregard to his power to save and deliver Men from their sin and bondage; He will not let the wickedness of sin cursed men and the devil shroud His glory, but He will exercise His power over all wickedness of the devil, demons and darkness of men and he will deliver all who are oppressed and call upon his Name for salvation.
He will also manifest his power to destroy the works of Satan and the hands of wicked men, for Christ's power will not be shrouded in the darkness of Satan or this wicked world;
Christ power is made manifest in this dark world, sin cursed nature of man and over the power of Satan, and is made manifest to destroy the works of Satan and this dark corrupt Wicked World; He will not let sin and the darkness of this age nor the darkness of Satan's confession and flattery Shroud his glory. Jesus will not be content and He will not be flattered with people who acknowledge Him only in word and not in true faith from the Heart believing, to let them alone to their sin cursed nature and prevent Him from manifesting His power to deliver them from Satan's hold of bondage and Tyranny, to set them free to change them and transform them by His Grace, He will not let His children born dead in sin and a child of wrath remain in that condition and state of affairs without manifesting His power to quicken them and make them alive in the power of His Blood, according to His Sovereign will to manifest His power to set free whomsoever He wills according to the good pleasure of His will given to Him by the will of the Father. John Calvin said in his commentary, in Luke 4:34-35:
"This demoniac was probably one of that multitude, which was mentioned, a little before, by Matthew 4:24. Yet the narrative of Mark and Luke is not superfluous: for they relate some circumstances, which not only present the miracle in a more striking light, but also contain useful instruction. The devil dexterously acknowledges, that Christ is the Holy One of God, in order to insinuate into the minds of men a suspicion, that there was some secret understanding between him and Christ. By such a trick he has since endeavored to make the Gospel suspected, and, in the present day, he is continually making similar attempts. That is the reason why Christ rebukes him. It is, no doubt, possible, that this confession was violently extorted from him: but there is no inconsistency between the two suppositions, that he is forced to yield to the power of Christ, and therefore cries out that he is the Holy One of God, -- and yet that he cunningly attempts to shroud in his own darkness the glory of Christ. At the same time, we must observe that, while he flatters Christ in this manner, he indirectly withdraws himself from his power, and in this way contradicts himself. For why was Christ sanctified by the Father, but that he might deliver men from the tyranny of the devil, and overturn his kingdom? But as Satan cannot endure that power, which he feels to be destructive to himself, he would desire that Christ should satisfy himself with an empty title, without exercising it on the present occasion.

The Wonderment of The Cross is the Hidden presence of God the Father in the midst of the pain and suffering of His only Begotten Son!

The Wonderment of The Cross is the Hidden presence of God the Father in the midst of the pain and suffering of His only Begotten Son!

Hebrews 12:2:

2fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

The real wonderment for the suffering and the pain of Jesus on the Cross in His Sufferings, was Jesus discovering God the Father's Hidden presence in the midst of His sufferings! I have to repeat this in great wonderment, notwithstanding, it is worth repeating, the real wonderment concerning the Pain of the Cross of Jesus Christ that allowed Jesus to endure the suffering with Great Joy is found in Jesus discovering God the Father's Hidden presence in the midst of His sufferings!

Christ Jesus was not focused on the injurious, injustice of the infliction of the pain and suffering by the hands of wicked puny man; for Jesus prayed to the Father for their forgivenss, when He prayed hanging on the cross, "Father, forgive them for they know not what they do," Luke 23:34.

But in Jesus sufferings, He focused on the Hidden presence of God the Father, in His sufferings, Just as He appeared in the midst of the Burning bush before Moses. Jesus in His suffering in His human nature and Divine nature reached beyond His suffering, by Faith and went beyond His suffering in juxtaposition to find the Hidden presence of His Father in the midst of His sufferings and such discovery for Jesus in the midst of His sufferings and being Eternally crushed by The Father's Hand, brought Jesus great Joy to discover the Hidden presence of The Father being in the midst of His only Begotten Son's suffering, for Jesus was aware of His Father's presence, or He would not otherwise have prayed for the forgiveness of the hands of the wicked. And just that awareness of God the Father's Hidden presence brought Jesus great joy in the midst of His suffering, that caused Him to despise the shame of the cross and with great Joy endured the suffering of the cross and the Eternal wrath of God by the Hidden presence and Grace of God The Father! For the Joy set before Him allowed Jesus to endure the pain of the Cross despising puny man's shame only for Jesus to endure the pain of Separation from God the Father Until His full surrender in His victorious cry, "it is finished!"

O how we need to endure the pain and suffering of dying to this world that we may discover God's Hidden presence in the midst of our sufferings to find the greater Grace sufficient to help in our sufferings and may have the joy set before us with the discovery of God's Hidden presence in a right relationship to God in the blood of Christ!

Hebrews 12:1-4

2fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. 3Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.4In your struggle against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood.

God is brainless; yet, nonetheless, Sovereignly Created the Universe! Isaiah 55: 8-9:

God is brainless; yet, nonetheless, Sovereignly  Created the Universe!
Isaiah 55: 8-9:
For my thoughts are not your thoughts,neither are your ways my ways,”declares the Lord. 9“As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts."
God does not have a physical brain, like man has. And man's brains give him the capacity to think, feel and touch. God's thinking, feeling and touch is higher than man's ways, God's thoughts are higher than man's without a physical human brain! God thinks, but He thinks not by means of a Human Brain.
But God is not like man that we should make Him like us to worship an image of God made in our likeness. Nor does God dwell in houses made by man's hands! For God created all and fills the heavens and the earth.
God's Aseity is not dependent on anything in man, around man or in man's surroundings of God's  creation on earth or His created Universe!
God's  capacity to think and plan all things is not based on having a human brain, for God is Spirit and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth, as Jesus said, in John 4:24,"God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”
God's capacity to think stems from His eternal Being, the great "I AM", does not exist, nor is it an existence outside of Himself, for He is, and  His Being  Always was, is and ever shall be. God's eternality not only Thought and planned all things and created all things by the Fiat of His Word, but had intimate fellowship within the Person's of His being: Father, Son and Holy Spirit; within that intimate union and fellowship was intimate thoughts of Love and communion within the God head three! In Eternity Past, Present and forevermore!
Within God's eternal being, All this expression  of intimate Love and communion was done without a human physical Brain!
Now, within the Godhead three, the change to  God's  Divine being was that the second Person of the Trinity, the Son of God took to his being human flesh; when at His incarnation, and within  the being of the Son of Man,  was the hypostatic union of the Divine nature and Human nature of the Son of God, in the One personality of Jesus Christ. In Jesus human nature, He took to himself a human brain with the human capacity to have the sensation of human  feeling, touch, emotions, awareness in human terms and human realms; the ability to think on a human level guided by God's Divine truth! And yet, was without sin!
Hebrews 2:14-15:
14Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise partook of the same things, that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil, 15and deliver all those who through fear of death were subject to lifelong slavery.
Now Jesus is Raised unto immortality in His physical human Body and is ascended in glory with His immortal Body and His immortal Brain, raised and ascended, using His human immortal brain to make intercession with God the Father and the Holy Spirit in their intimate union with one another on behalf of His saints and the church!
Hebrews 7:25:
"Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them."

Henceforth, God does not have a human brain, but took to His being a Human brain within the second Person of the Trinity, at His incarnation. Before the incarnation of the second person of the Trinity, God was brainless, without a human brain. Notwithstanding,  God's Divine Being without a human brain,  does not make God out to be  deaf, dumb and blind; for God in His Sovereignty created the universe according to His predetermined plan and purpose for His glory. God predetermined and planned all things in eternity past without a human brain! Therefore, fall on your knees and worship God for His greatness where His ways are not your ways and His thoughts not your thoughts! Where He has no human brain to think like fallen man, or act in the ways of fallen man!

Isaiah 55:1-13
Come, all you who are thirsty,
come to the waters;
and you who have no money,
come, buy and eat!
Come, buy wine and milk
without money and without cost.
2Why spend money on what is not bread,
and your labor on what does not satisfy?
Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good,
and you will delight in the richest of fare.
3Give ear and come to me;
listen, that you may live.
I will make an everlasting covenant with you,
my faithful love promised to David.
4See, I have made him a witness to the peoples,
a ruler and commander of the peoples.
5Surely you will summon nations you know not,
and nations you do not know will come running to you,
because of the Lord your God,
the Holy One of Israel,
for he has endowed you with splendor.”
6Seek the Lord while he may be found;
call on him while he is near.
7Let the wicked forsake their ways
and the unrighteous their thoughts.
Let them turn to the Lord, and he will have mercy on them,
and to our God, for he will freely pardon.
8“For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,”
declares the Lord.
9“As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.
10As the rain and the snow
come down from heaven,
and do not return to it
without watering the earth
and making it bud and flourish,
so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater,
11so is my word that goes out from my mouth:
It will not return to me empty,
but will accomplish what I desire
and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.
12You will go out in joy
and be led forth in peace;
the mountains and hills
will burst into song before you,
and all the trees of the field
will clap their hands.
13Instead of the thornbush will grow the juniper,
and instead of briers the myrtle will grow.
This will be for the Lord’s renown,
for an everlasting sign,
that will endure forever.”

Happiness is a byproduct of Contentment Rooted in the Holy Spirit!

Happiness is a byproduct of Contentment Rooted in the Holy Spirit!

Jesus said," But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you." Matthew 6:33.

Galatians 5:22:
22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23gentleness, self-control;

I Timothy 6:6
But godliness with contentment is great gain,

It Is rooted in God's Design for mankind and the fruit of the Holy Spirit; if you are not pursuing Him for happiness all other pursuits are inferior pursuits rooted in the sin cursed nature for its design of happiness is temporal and fleeting and rooted in discontentment and does not have the ultimate purpose of God, for Happiness, but rather an inferior fallen expression of happiness.

If you do not have the Holy Spirit, you do not have the Son and a relationship with God the Father; if you are not pursuing Your Union with God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, then your pursuit for the ultimate fulfillment for Happiness in life will never be reached, achieved or found.

People can pursue riches to fulfill all their needs in life, and have everything that they want in life, and still not be happy, for they are constantly ever wanting more and more and are never satisfied, for from the writing of King Solomon, he penned that very truth of mankind,
"All things are full of weariness; a man cannot utter it; the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing" Ecclesiastes 1:8.

A person who is not made alive by the Holy Spirit will pursue Happiness, but their pursuits are not after God, and that Godless pursuit in life will never fulfill true happiness for them.
For even in the Westminster Shorter Chatecism, the question and answer is clearly seen for man's chief End, " What is the chief end of man?
A: Man's chief end is to glorify God, and to enjoy him forever.
1 Corinthians 10:31
Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.

Romans 11:36
For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen.

Indeed, Augustine of Hyppo pursued many pursuits until he found his true meaning in life of resting his restless heart in God.Behind "Augustine are a succession of desperate searches for fulfillment: excessive pleasures, false religions, philosophy, dissipation and distractions—futilities that left him so weary of himself he could only cry out, “How long, O Lord, how long?” At the very moment when he uttered that cry, circumstances led his eyes to a passage in Romans that showed him he could be freed from sin. Shortly afterward, he was baptized. " Dan Graves
Augustine realized In spite of sin, each feels the longing to reach out to his Creator. Why is this? He realizes it is the doing of God. “You have made us for yourself, and our hearts are restless, until they can find rest in you.”

"You have made us for yourself and Our hearts are restless, until they can find rest in you.” Augustine of Hippo (354–430), in Confessions.

"However, "happiness" is a byproduct of its origin, God. If happiness were an abstract thing, then one could claim and define it as it one sees fit. But if happiness has a source (specifically, if it emanates from God), then pursuing it must involve pursuing Him.

"This means that whatever our wounds are, the cure lies in obedience to Christ. Happiness and contentment are spiritual qualities that must be traced to His Spirit, for they flow from (and culminate in) Him"

Are you truly Happy today, have you rested your restless heart in God, for true fulfillment and chief end in your life to glorify God through His only Begotten Son?

There is no happiness in life, like a .heart forgiven, cleansed, restored, renewed and made alive by the Holy Spirit through the Blood of Jesus Christ, such a heart is seen evidenced in Joy and Spiritual happiness in life, for it is a heart resting in God to glorify God in life.

The infinite sufficiency and Efficacy of Once!

The infinite sufficiency and Efficacy of Once! Christ's Suffering, Shed Blood, wounds and Death on the Cross, Once! Not perpetually or repeated or yearly or monthly or weekly or daily!
I Peter 3:18:
"For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit,"

The infinite sufficiency of Once! Christ's Suffering, Shed Blood, wounds and Death on the Cross, Once! Not perpetually, repeated, yearly or weekly, or daily!
Yes, Jesus was wounded, Once!
Yes, Jesus was scourged, Once!
Yes, Jesus Blood was shed, Once!
Yes, Jesus was beaten and wore a crown of Thorns, Once!
Yes, Jesus had nails driven into His Hands and Feet, to God's Appointed Cross of wood, to God's Appointed Tree that made the wood that the nails were driven in, Once!
Yes, Jesus was crushed, Once, to suffer the wrath of God, Once! To appease the wrath of God, Once! In the libation of His Blood, Once! For Propitiation in His Blood to satisfy and to vindicate the righteousness, Holiness, Justice and Love of God, Once! For the penalty of my sin cursed nature, Once! Though sins may surface more often repeated, perpetually, yearly, monthly, weekly and daily, not withstanding, Once by His wounds His people are healed!

Yes, Jesus suffered, Once! In His mortal Body, the power of Death over His Mortal Body, only to have Resurrected, Once! In His body, unto immortality to break the power of the jaws of Death and break the power of sin ruling over the person in the sin cursed nature. To Deliver, Redeem, Save from the sin cursed nature by impartation of New Life in regeneration of the New Birth by the Holy Spirit, Once! For the Eternal Blessing of Everlasting Life for the Believer to be Redeemed in Body, Soul and Spirit, never to Die again, but also Raised unto immortality for Everlasting Life, Once!

For His Onetime wounds, shed Blood and Death on the Cross and Resurrection is infinitely, sufficient and efficacious for my healing of my infectious, festering curse of the cancer of sin, death and Decay in my life. Jesus was wounded for His infinite, sufficient and efficacious offer of His Onetime wounds for my Eternal Healing, a balm to bind up the wound of my sin, death and darkness of death! To bring me Light, Life, righteousness, Holiness and Eternal Joy of Everlasting Life!

Jesus was wounded,but not to become a festering wound of infection to bring Him death again, because of His One-time wounds, a wounding of Once is enough for my healing! And I am healed! And I will walk around for all Eternity with no scars of sin and death without spot or wrinkle, as He walks around with nail scarred Hands and feet in His immortal, Reurrected Body!

Notwithstanding, this one-time sufficiency and efficacy of his shed blood and Death on the cross for my sins, once suffered is mine by perpetuity of God's promise and becomes Mine by one-time appropriation of Faith and daily reminders of the appropriated faith in God's perpetual Lovingkindness, Faithfulnees and promise confessing my sin and daily appropriating by faith His one-time shed blood for my cleansing, forgiveness and restoration and Redemption in his one-time wounds that He suffered for me on the cross to enjoy the blessings of his one-time Resurrection unto immortality for me to enjoy everlasting life and the blessings of life more abundantly and Free, by the appropriation of Faith to the blessings of God's faithful promise in his one-time sacrifice, finished work on the cross in His shed blood and Death on the cross and Resurrection from the grave, for my Eternal Salvation!

Jesus, In Thy onetime wounds I find relief, From my greatest sin and grief. Let my life and conversation Be directed by Thy Word; Lord, Thy constant preservation To Thy erring child afford. Nowhere but alone in Thee From all harm can I be free!

Isaiah 53:5
"But he was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds we are healed"

Jeremiah 8:22
"Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Why then has the health of the daughter of my people not been restored?"

Jeremiah 46 11
"11Go up to Gilead, and take balm,
O virgin daughter of Egypt!
In vain you have used many medicines;
there is no healing for you."

Matthew 9:12
On hearing this, Jesus said, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.

Jesus I shall Rest Secure! Jude 1:24-25 A Poem by Joseph Valentini

Jesus, I shall Rest Secure!...A Poem by Joseph Valentini, by The Passion of Jesus and His Loving Grace!
Jude 1:24-25
24Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy, 25to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen.

Jesus, I shall Rest Secure!...A Poem by Joseph Valentini, by The Passion of Jesus and His Loving Grace!

Jesus, I shall Rest Secure, in your forgiveness and pardoning Grace, the efficacy of your Shed Blood, Death on the Cross and your Resurrected Grace;

Jesus, I shall Rest Secure, Delivered from God's wrath for my sin nature, troubles, anguish and woes, from the fear of death, and from Death's final blow;

Jesus, I shall I shall Rest Secure, For your Incarnation brought in your natures, Two: Divine and Human, in one, the Hypostatic Union of your Personage, the paradox of fully Human and Fully Divine, functioning in One union of your Person, for the consequence of my Eternal Security, more sure by Divine design!

Jesus, Now, I shall stand secure, on your indestructible foundation, forevermore! Shall I stand, justified by your Grace, in the provision of your righteous, vicarious life, justified in Your Resurrected life of Sublime Grace; Standing, Standing, in that place of the abiding Love of my Heavenly Father's Presence, His Agape Love, mercy, and abiding Grace;

Jesus, I am standing Secure, in Your Father's Chosen, Elected, predestinated, Foreloving mercy and Divine Grace, in His Adopted Love and eternal Grace, whereby, I cry: "Abba, Abba, Father" forever Adopted as your Child, by the Blood of the New Covenant of His Beloved Son of Grace; Forever showered with Divine Favor, harmony and peace, for my Communion with God The Father, Son and Holy Spirit, Three!

Jesus, fully accepted, do I stand today and forever before your throne of Grace, to bow my knee before your Throne of pardoning Grace; Where you have Ascended, unto Hyper-Exaltation, by God The Father, who Coronated you King of Glory, Declared By your Father, The Eternal Son of Glory and Son of Grace;

Jesus, do I stand today, forever now before your throne of Grace, with your grasp, by the added immortality of your immortal nail Scarred Hands of Grace, whereby, you hold all those your Father gave you before the world began; Nothing! Never! And No One! Can ever pluck them out of your Hands! Glory! Glory! Glory! Back to you, where you are forever Seated never to now leave or let go of your Sovereign Throne of Grace ever so true; Eternally, Always, The Great I Am forever unchanging, the same yesterday, today and forevermore, never changed in glory! Always there met in you, Jesus! Never will you leave or forsaken me, with me always, forever with you, in your glory transforming me, unto glorified transformation that has taken me!

Jesus, I shall rest secure, in all your answered prayers for me, ever so sure, forever to make intersession for those whom your Blood now purchased, Redeemed and set free; unto myriads of your fully named numbers too many for me to count, but you know each one, by name, without a doubt!

Jesus, I shall rest Secure, forever in the grasp of your nail scarred Hands and pardoning, Loving Grace! Unto Eternal Holy pure Life, in the perpetual light of your presence forever to shine!... Indeed, Jesus, I shall rest Secure! Resting, Resting forevermore!

A Poem by Joseph Valentini, by The Passion of Jesus and His Loving Grace!
Jude 1:24-25
24Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy, 25to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen.

God's Love knows no severance, nor will there ever be any severance with God's Agape LOVE for those whom God Loves! Romans 8:31-39:

God's  Love knows no severance, nor will there ever be any severance with God's Agape LOVE for those whom God Loves!
Romans 8:31-39:
What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things? 33Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. 34Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us. 35Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? 36As it is written,“For your sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.”37No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, 39nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
The difference between the Love of the world's goods and the Love of God for His children is Severance!
The Love of the things of this world and what you put your money into for investments and for preservation of those things; such as, restoration of a favorite car, for the end result of classic collectible status, with great elation of raising your hands to heaven to the final build of the car, and declare as long as I live this car is inseparable to me.
Such a declaration is based on a light momentary, temporary statement with the underlining factor and knowledge that the severance to the love of the world's goods comes into play at death, for it was qualified by, " as long as I live"
You see my friends, the love of the world's good and objects of this world is a breathless, lifeless love that will not last unto eternity. You heard it said, put your money where your mouth is, but I say, put your heart where God's Love is!
Man has a love for the world's goods that will always end in severance. For  the lifeless, breathless object that you lived for in the delusion of your own mind of giving it life, but it is an inanimate object with no life, and this is what you call idolatry, that you surrounded your whole life wrapped around and clinging to a lifeless breathless object of meaningless proportions unto great vanity of all vanities in life will one day you will find yourself separated by death of that thing that could not give you a meaningful life and fill the eternal void in your life.
But The Love of God is not conditioned upon anything in you, you circumstances, or the things you possess, God's Love is Agape, unconditional Love. There is no severance with The Love of God in the face of death for those who love God and have been called according to His purpose. God's Love can never be torn away from His Child in the face of Death, how much more so in the face of all things in life! For there is nothing that can separate you from the Love of God being in Christ Jesus.
For God's Love is inseparable, unconditional, infinitely enduring, unfailing, boundlessly true, Eternal  life giving, all powerful, to break apart the separation of death itself.
God's  Love knows no severance, nor will there ever be any severance with God's Love. There is no, nor will there ever be any severance in God's Love for those who Love God and are united in union with the provision of His Love in His only  Begotten Son with whom He Loves, His Precious Son,  indeed!

With my whole Being Ever Greatly will I glorify God Psalm 146:2

With my whole Being, ever Being greatly, to glorify Almighty God, with my being once quickened by The Holy Spirit, will I ever greatly glorify YHWH!
Psalm 146:2
"I will praise the LORD while I live;I will sing praises to my God while I have my being."

With your ears be ever hearing, and hearing greatly with your ears once qucikened  and opened to receive the new sound of God's God breathed Word by the Holy Spirit!
Isaiah 59:5:The Sovereign LORD has opened my ears; I have not been rebellious, I have not turned away.
The Sovereign LORD has opened my ears; I have not been rebellious, I have not turned away.

With your eyes be ever seeing and seeing ever greatly, with your eyes once quickened and given Light to see by the Holy Spirit!
Luke 24:31:
And their eyes were opened, and they recognized him. And he vanished from their sight.

With your mouth and tongue, be ever praying, proclaiming and speaking with greatly prayers and  proclamation the Gospel of The LORD Jesus Christ, with your mouth and tongue once quickened to Pray, speak and proclaim the Gospel of The Lord Jesus Christ by the Holy Spirit.
Ephesians 6: 18-19:
18praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints, 19and also for me, that words may be given to me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim the mystery of the gospel.
With your Hands and Feet, be ever giving and bringing ever greatly, with your hands and feet once quickened to give and Bring the Gospel of The LORD Jesus Christ by the Holy Spirit!
Romans 10:15:
And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!”

With your Legs be ever standing and standing greatly, with your legs standing firmly and resisting The Devil, with your legs once quickened by the Holy Spirit!
Ephesians 6:13
13Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm.
James 4:7:
Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

A Rainbow appears in the Sky by God's Sovereign manifestation! Genesis 9:12-17

A Rainbow appears in the Sky by God's Sovereign manifestation!
Genesis 9:12-17
12And God said, “This is the sign of the covenant that I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all future generations: 13I have set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth. 14When I bring clouds over the earth and the bow is seen in the clouds, 15I will remember my covenant that is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh. And the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh. 16When the bow is in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.” 17God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant that I have established between me and all flesh that is on the earth.”

A Rainbow appears in the Sky by God's Sovereign manifestation, not strictly by natural science Phenomenon, for God uses The Elements of His Creation to bring forth His Sign of the Rainbow to remember His Covenant Promises, Between God and every living creature!

Consider God's Sovereignty everytime a Rainbow appears in the Sky, it is ordered by Divine providence, not by random chance or happening or luck.

And Consider God's  Sovereignty everytime a Rainbow appears in the sky, it is not strictly for man to be in awe of its beauty, but it is for man and every living creature to Glorify God for His Mercy and the vindication of His Holy Justice and Divine Wrath against the shifting colors of our sin cursed nature inherited from Adam.

Consider the Sovereignty of God everytime He brings forth a Rainbow in the sky, Consider His infinite Patience and long suffering nature to provide man with time to repent and turn to God before the floods were dispensed by God's Wrath. Consider the infinite patience of God now, everytime a Rainbow appears in the sky, for God is patient today not wanting any one to perish, but for all to repent and believe on Jesus for Salvation and Deliverance from God's Wrath abiding!

Consider the Sovereignty of God everytime a rainbow appears in the sky, Consider His Agape who provided the Ark for Noah and His Family for deliverance from the Baptism of the flood waters of His wrath.

Consider, today, The Sovereignty of God, everytime He brings forth the the Rainbow in the sky, Consider His Agape to provide the Ark of the Cross of His only Begotten Son, and the Ark and Bow of His Resurrection for deliverence from His wrath abiding on you for the punishment of your sin in the vindication of His Holiness, Justice and great glory.

Consider God's Sovereignty everytime He brings forth His Rainbows in the sky, not only when He remembers His Divine and Eternal Covenant to not punish the earth and all living creatures  with flood waters, but when He  remembers His Covenant with His Son, to punish the sins of His people in the Body and Shed Blood of His Son on the Cross in His Death and His Victorious Resurrection in the light bursts of the glorious  colors of the light if His Resurrection in glorious rainbow colors!

Consider God's  Sovereignty everytime He brings forth His rainbow in the sky, to its true and lasting meaning, for God remembers the past, present and future sins and rebellion of every living creature and the declaration of His Divine Holiness and the vindication of His justice and wrath to never let the guilty go unpunished and to punish every lawless deed under the sun in the vindication of His wrath, no longer by the mode of flood waters to cleanse the earth but by the mode of Everlasting flames of His Divine wrath for those who rejected the mode of His Divine Love in His only begotten Son!
For the last mode of His Divine wrath is spilled over into the everlasting lake of Fire!

God made me to be deficient, to fall short, to not measure up and to shatter the delusion of my self made sufficiency! 2 Corinthians 3:5

God made me to be deficient, to fall short, to not measure up only to shatter the delusion of my self made sufficiency!
2 Corinthians 3:5
"Not that we are sufficient in ourselves to claim anything as coming from us, but our sufficiency is from God,"
God made me to be defficient, to fall short, to not measure up only to shatter the delusion of self made sufficiency! That I may find my full sufficiency, my fullness, my measuring up and my perfection found in Jesus Christ alone, with my confidence found in the full Sufficiency of Jesus Christ, Alone! My Great God and Savior! For in my deficiency, God has made Christ's sufficiency to be made manifested in my Life for His great glory.

Therefore, God made me deficient that I may abandon my deficiency and bring it to the Cross of His Sufficiency that His life would make me sufficient to stand before the Throne of Grace! Therefore, I will rejoice in my deficiencies that I may glory in the fullness of Jesus' Sufficiency in my life that He be glorified in me!

Restored in the image of Jesus Christ, the highest of all images greater than Adam, to have the Highest of all relationships with God The Father, Son and Holy Spirit!

Restored in the image of Jesus Christ, the highest of all images greater than Adam, to have the Highest of all relationships with God The Father, Son and Holy Spirit!

Made in God's image to know God and have a harmonious relationship with Him through the Blood of His Dear Son, Jesus Christ, whom He Loves!
God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule…” … God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.
—Genesis 1:26, 31

Made in God's image, not restrictively to be used by God, but to have an intimate relationship with God in the Fellowship of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

This world in all its corruption can make you feel the great lostness of being made in the image of God. The images portrayed in the media appealing only to the carnal mind and nature can make one feel insignificant, useless and worthless--all based on a standard of externals, sensual appearances of self images and performances, not based on a spiritual realm of having a personal relationship with God through our LORD Jesus Christ.

Are you ready for the break through! Know this, you can be paralyzed and immobilized on a bed of illness, or in a wheel chair or deaf or blind or unable to speak, notwithstanding, all these physical deficiencies, being made in the image of God, gives one the privleage of having an intimate relationship with the greatest Being of the Universe in the person of God the Father, God the Son and God the Ho!y Spirit.

If you don't get that, then get this:
Jesus took care of our fallen image at the cross, to raise us in His blood to have a Higher image than Adam, to be made perfect in Jesus' very image, In his blood, Death and Resurrection-this relationship is such a High relationship, higher than the Angels in heaven, and all the Heavenly host before the throne of God! Such a grand and sublime relationship is incomparable with any person on this earth and that ever lived through out the ages of time!

Now, get even this:
God in Jesus Christ, Loves His chosen in Christ, He accepts His children in His beloved Son, and He will embrace you in His beloved Son, for in His beloved Son, is God's image restored in you in Christ Jesus. The world will hate you, reject you and make you feel worthless, useless and insignificant, but what is that to you, When God the Father embraces you in His dear Son? You can be embraced by Him and learn to embrace His image in you, as you discover a restored image in Christ Jesus to such great heights of an ineffable relationship with God through Jesus Christ. Your worth and identity and image in this life is found in Jesus Christ, embrace it and be embraced to the glory of God--And this is, indeed, a great conscious ineffable worth in your life that no gold, silver, external image, performance, celebrity status can ever replace in this earthly realm, it is priceless! Bought and embedded in the priceless Blood of Jesus!

Are you pressing on to know God today in God consciousness in your existence to the details of your life? Get rid of sin that hinders the relationship, by repenting and believing On YHWH God and THE LORD Jesus Christ, knowing that only in His blood can you be placed in a right relationship with God The Father of our LORD Jesus Christ!

Here is the reality of it all, if you are not pressing on to fear the Lord in your life right, NOW! Then, will you know Him when you stand before His mighty throne of Judgment? Don't not wait till you get to heaven to know God, when you can have Heaven on earth in Knowing God now in the person of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit through the blood of the LORD Jesus Christ! In the ever present now of knowing Him!

Press on to know God today and every day unto your last dying breath!

There is no life apart from God, there is only Death apart from God in Christ Jesus! Jeremiah 51: 15-19:

There is no life apart from God, there is only Death apart from God in Christ Jesus!
Jeremiah 51: 15-19:
“It is he who made the earth by his power, who established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding stretched out the heavens. 16 When he utters his voice there is a tumult of waters in the heavens, and he makes the mist rise from the ends of the earth. He makes lightning for the rain, and he brings forth the wind from his storehouses. 17 Every man is stupid and without knowledge; every goldsmith is put to shame by his idols, for his images are false, and there is no breath in them. 18 They are worthless, a work of delusion; at the time of their punishment they shall perish. 19 Not like these is he who is the portion of Jacob, for he is the one who formed all things, and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance; the LORD of hosts is his name."

Man can never make what God has made, Even though they delude themselves into thinking they can apart from God! There is no life to be made or can be made apart from God and the Life that God has already made and created. There is no life apart from God, there is only Death apart from God in Christ Jesus!

Man can never duplicate God's creation or remake themselves in their own image without impunity and receiving their just punishment and just do of God's wrath.
Man can never make what God has made, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made by God's mighty Hand! Psalm 139.

We may think we can replace what God has made with the work of our own hands, but our delusions have blinded our eyes, for God is irreplaceable and you can never replace the glory of God with images made by the hands of man to look like man and the created order. Romans 1:18-24.

First, we are already Created by God! Nobody is self made, nor did they carve themselves out of gold, silver or even the Rocks.
Second, All of Creation attests to the glory of Almighty God the Creator of the Uiniverse.
Comclusion, we are under the sin cursed imperfect nature that always pursues to live life apart from God our Creator, since the fall. We always seek to replace the Knowledge of God with the false images of the flesh made to look like images of man or the beasts of the field in homage and false ascribing to the worship of the created, rather than the worship of God who is forever Blessed!
Romans 1:18-23:
"18For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. 19For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. 20For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world,g in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. 21For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22Claiming to be wise, they became fools, 23and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things."

I can not tell God when to calm the winds, the direction where to blow the winds, nor to stop and calm the winds in my favor! Psalm 107: 25

I can not tell God when to calm the winds, the direction where to blow the winds, nor to stop and calm the winds in my favor!
Psalm 107: 25
For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof.
Psalm 115:3
"Our God is in the heavens; he does all that he pleases."
Mark 4:39:
"And he awoke and rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm."
I cannot tell God, When? Where? How? Why? Nor, can I give God any direction to do my bidding for my ease and comfort of the Direction of how the wind Should blow!
I am outside of my house on a nice Saturday afternoon, the sun is out and the wind is blowing at various surges. While I was cutting my lawn, I did not mind the wind blowing on me, actually it was refreshing to have the wind blow on me while I was cutting the grass.
The second stage of my yard work, was to get out my blower and blow those annoying helicopter seeds. I gathered them in different piles, and went to go back to shovel them up and throw them in the garbage can. Well, what do you know happened next, surges of wind came by and blew the pile.
I got angry at the wind, and complained to God, why can't you make the wind blow in my favor?
Then I came to my senses, realizing who am I that I should tell God to command the wind in my favor. For God is in Heaven and I am on earth, He does and commands the wind according to His Sovereign will, after the good pleasure of His will.
Then my anger subsided, and I was taught patience to work around the wind that Blows any which way God determines and to rest in His Sovereignty in commanding the wind to blow in His favor according to His providence and plans.
The spiritual application is obvious, the winds of life will blow in surges, in any direction of the compass, and when it blows in your favor or not in your favor, brace yourself to turn to God's Sovereignty for His will of working all things according to His plans in your life. You cannot command the wind only God can command the wind to blow or cease from blowing, to accomplish His purpose that I may rest in the Sovereign power of Jesus Christ in my  life.

Your life is exposed, the writing is on the wall! MENE. MENE, TEKEL AND PARSIN!

Your life is exposed, the writing is on the wall!
MENE. MENE, TEKEL AND PARSIN!

Daniel 5:27
26This is the interpretation of the matter:

MENE-God has numbered the days of your kingdom and brought it to an end;

TEKEL-you have been weighed in the balances and found wanting;

28PERES-your kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians.”

Mene-God in His Sovereignty has numbered your days! All of man's days are numbered by God! You cannot add numbers to your days by your good works, riches, efforts, external rituals, partying spirit, feasting and drunkenness! Your days are numbered, may they be numbered unto daily repentance and turning to God for Salvation and reception of His mercy and not His wrath abiding!

Tekel- life weighed in Tha balences and found wanting! Try to live your life and dress up the sin cursed imperfect nature that you inherited from Adam, and you will be found naked before Almighty God, insufficient, fallen short of God's glory, found wanting for all eternity, wanting for God's wrath to be eternally removed from abiding on you, helpless for deliverance from God's wrath Eternally abiding.
Peres- Your life divided separated from the life of God for all eternity in the lake of fire!

Mene-Your days are numbered, behold now is the day of Salvation! Be found numbered and added in God's Kingdom; may the Life of Jesus be numbered to infinite fulness for everlasting life, in you. Otherwise, apart from Jesus Christ abiding in your life, you will be found numbered with the wicked, numbered in the outer darkness where there will be wailing and knashing of the teeth and the smoke of your eternal torment will rise forever, and you will be found numbeted with the Devil and his angels, the demons and all whose names not found written in the Lambs book of life, found numbered in the lake of fire with all those numbered and subtracted from the Kingdom of God.

Tekel-Be found trusting in the sufficiency, supremacy and efficacy of Jesus' Shed Blood for forgiveness and cleansing of sin, in the new covenant of Grace by Adoption in His Blood for Eternal Life; never wanting or falling Short in the Grace of God for justification in Jesus' Resurrected life unto new Birth in Jesus' nature for Everlasting Life! But measured to fullness for all eternity in the sufficiency of Jesus' finished Redemptive, Vicarious Life, Shed Blood and Death on the cross and vicarious Resurrection!
Peres-Then God's Kingdom will be opened to you for entrance for Eternal Life, transferred from the Kingdom of darkness into the Kingdom of Light in God the Father's Beloved Son, The LORD Jesus Christ, alone! No one other than Jesus Christ can provide your Entrance into God's Kingdom.

Daniel 5:23-31
"And you have praised the gods of silver and gold, of bronze, iron, wood, and stone, which do not see or hear or know, but the God in whose hand is your breath, and whose are all your ways, you have not honored.
24“Then from his presence the hand was sent, and this writing was inscribed. 25And this is the writing that was inscribed: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, and PARSIN. 26This is the interpretation of the matter: MENE, God has numberedg the days of your kingdom and brought it to an end; 27TEKEL, you have been weighedh in the balances and found wanting; 28PERES, your kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians.”
29Then Belshazzar gave the command, and Daniel was clothed with purple, a chain of gold was put around his neck, and a proclamation was made about him, that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom.
30That very night Belshazzar the Chaldean king was killed. 31j And Darius the Mede received the kingdom, being about sixty-two years old"

What is Truth? John 17:37-38

What is Truth?
John 17:37-38

37“Then You are a king?” Pilate said. “You say that I am a king,” Jesus answered. “For this reason I was born and have come into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to My voice.” Pilate said to him, “What is truth?”

Pilate arrived at the Truth through Scientific Experimentation and Starred the Knowing Truth in the face and still questioned the experimentation validity of the Truth and said to the empirical and Historical truth of Jesus, "What is truth?" You can study the Truth through Scientific analysis and still turn a blind eye to believe the scientific experimentation validity of the truth that you arrived at. Unless quickened by the Holy Spirit, you can stare the truth, be it, Historical, Empirical and Scientific in its final outcome and will not believe it!
