Entry #28: My Comforter

Did not Jesus say He would be our Comforter and He would be our Guide?  This is one of the benefits of His indwelling Spirit.  I don’t know where I’d be without that.

Jhn 15:26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:

Jhn 16:7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.

Jhn 14:16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;

Jhn 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

Psa 94:19 In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul

I just wanted to share a few verses with you.  God Bless!

Entry #27: Could HIS Coming Be Near?

1Th 4:15		For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
1Th 4:16		For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
1Th 4:17		Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
1Th 4:18		Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

Entry #26: So, I’ll Let My Words Be Few

I saw this quote: “Preach the gospel always, if necessary use words . . .”
- St. Francis of Assisi

and thought of this verse: Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men.
- II Cor. 3:2

Entry #25: Razing Hell/God Bless You!

What do you think of upon hearing the expression “razing hell?”  Many would most likely think of someone getting mad about something and causing a big ruckus.  To RAZE does not mean to lift, neither is it associated with shaving, nor is the word perhaps used as one might think.  RAZING means to destroy utterly.  In the Bible, the children of Edom had thoughts of seeing Jerusalem RAZED, demolished—even to the foundation (Ps. 137:7), but God had other plans about RAZING, and it wasn’t to destroy Jerusalem!  It was to destroy the place that was not meant for HIS PEOPLE—hell.  It is not God’s will that any perish, but that ALL SHOULD COME TO REPENTANCE.  It is God’s will to BLESS us that we may BLESS others.  Consider the following:

 

GOD BLESS YOU!

I seek in prayerful words, dear friend,
My heart’s true wish to send you,
That you may know that, far or near,
My loving thoughts attend you.

I cannot find a truer word,
Nor better to address you;
Nor song, nor po-em have I heard,
Is sweeter than God bless you!

God bless you, so I’ve wished you all,
Of brightness life possesses;
For can there any joy at all
Be yours unless God blesses?

God bless you!  So I breathe a charm
Lest grief’s dark night oppress you,
For how can sorrow bring you harm
If ‘tis God’s way to bless you?

And so, “through all thy days
May shadows touch thee never”
But this alone—God bless thee—
Then art thou safe forever.
