They became mine, and they bore sons and daughters. As for their names, Oholah is Samaria, and Oholibah is Jerusalem. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:5  "Oholah played the whore while she was mine, and she lusted after her lovers the Assyrians, warriors &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:6  clothed in purple, governors and commanders, all of them desirable young men, horsemen riding on horses. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:7  She bestowed her whoring upon them, the choicest men of Assyria all of them, and she defiled herself with all the idols of everyone after whom she lusted. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:8  She did not give up her whoring that she had begun in Egypt; for in her youth men had lain with her and handled her virgin bosom and poured out their whoring lust upon her. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:9  Therefore I delivered her into the hands of her lovers, into the hands of the Assyrians, after whom she lusted. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:10  These uncovered her nakedness; they seized her sons and her daughters; and as for her, they killed her with the sword; and she became a byword among women, when judgment had been executed on her. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:11  "Her sister Oholibah saw this, and she became more corrupt than her sister in her lust and in her whoring, which was worse than that of her sister. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:12  She lusted after the Assyrians, governors and commanders, warriors clothed in full armor, horsemen riding on horses, all of them desirable young men. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:13  And I saw that she was defiled; they both took the same way. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:14  But she carried her whoring further. She saw men portrayed on the wall, the images of the Chaldeans portrayed in vermilion, &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:15  wearing belts on their waists, with flowing turbans on their heads, all of them having the appearance of officers, a likeness of Babylonians whose native land was Chaldea. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:16  When she saw them, she lusted after them and sent messengers to them in Chaldea. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:17  And the Babylonians came to her into the bed of love, and they defiled her with their whoring lust. And after she was defiled by them, she turned from them in disgust. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:18  When she carried on her whoring so openly and flaunted her nakedness, I turned in disgust from her, as I had turned in disgust from her sister. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:19  Yet she increased her whoring, remembering the days of her youth, when she played the whore in the land of Egypt &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:20  and lusted after her paramours there, whose members were like those of donkeys, and whose issue was like that of horses. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:21  Thus you longed for the lewdness of your youth, when the Egyptians handled your bosom and pressed your young breasts." &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:22  Therefore, O Oholibah, thus says the Lord GOD: "Behold, I will stir up against you your lovers from whom you turned in disgust, and I will bring them against you from every side: &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:23  the Babylonians and all the Chaldeans, Pekod and Shoa and Koa, and all the Assyrians with them, desirable young men, governors and commanders all of them, officers and men of renown, all of them riding on horses. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:24  And they shall come against you from the north with chariots and wagons and a host of peoples. They shall set themselves against you on every side with buckler, shield, and helmet; and I will commit the judgment to them, and they shall judge you according to their judgments. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:25  And I will direct my jealousy against you, that they may deal with you in fury. They shall cut off your nose and your ears, and your survivors shall fall by the sword. They shall seize your sons and your daughters, and your survivors shall be devoured by fire. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:26  They shall also strip you of your clothes and take away your beautiful jewels. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:27  Thus I will put an end to your lewdness and your whoring begun in the land of Egypt, so that you shall not lift up your eyes to them or remember Egypt anymore. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:28  "For thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I will deliver you into the hands of those whom you hate, into the hands of those from whom you turned in disgust, &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:29  and they shall deal with you in hatred and take away all the fruit of your labor and leave you naked and bare, and the nakedness of your whoring shall be uncovered. Your lewdness and your whoring &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:30  have brought this upon you, because you played the whore with the nations and defiled yourself with their idols. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:31  You have gone the way of your sister; therefore I will give her cup into your hand. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:32  Thus says the Lord GOD: "You shall drink your sister's cup that is deep and large; you shall be laughed at and held in derision, for it contains much; &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:33  you will be filled with drunkenness and sorrow. A cup of horror and desolation, the cup of your sister Samaria; &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:34  you shall drink it and drain it out, and gnaw its shards, and tear your breasts; for I have spoken, declares the Lord GOD. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:35  Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: Because you have forgotten me and cast me behind your back, you yourself must bear the consequences of your lewdness and whoring." &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:36  The LORD said to me: "Son of man, will you judge Oholah and Oholibah? Declare to them their abominations. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:37  For they have committed adultery, and blood is on their hands. With their idols they have committed adultery, and they have even offered up to them for food the children whom they had borne to me. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:38  Moreover, this they have done to me: they have defiled my sanctuary on the same day and profaned my Sabbaths. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:39  For when they had slaughtered their children in sacrifice to their idols, on the same day they came into my sanctuary to profane it. And behold, this is what they did in my house. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:40  They even sent for men to come from afar, to whom a messenger was sent; and behold, they came. For them you bathed yourself, painted your eyes, and adorned yourself with ornaments. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:41  You sat on a stately couch, with a table spread before it on which you had placed my incense and my oil. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:42  The sound of a carefree multitude was with her; and with men of the common sort, drunkards were brought from the wilderness; and they put bracelets on the hands of the women, and beautiful crowns on their heads. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:43  "Then I said of her who was worn out by adultery, Now they will continue to use her for a whore, even her! &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:44  For they have gone in to her, as men go in to a prostitute. Thus they went in to Oholah and to Oholibah, lewd women! &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:45  But righteous men shall pass judgment on them with the sentence of adulteresses, and with the sentence of women who shed blood, because they are adulteresses, and blood is on their hands." &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:46  For thus says the Lord GOD: "Bring up a vast host against them, and make them an object of terror and a plunder. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:47  And the host shall stone them and cut them down with their swords. They shall kill their sons and their daughters, and burn up their houses. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:48  Thus will I put an end to lewdness in the land, that all women may take warning and not commit lewdness as you have done. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 23:49  And they shall return your lewdness upon you, and you shall bear the penalty for your sinful idolatry, and you shall know that I am the Lord GOD." &lt;br /&gt;Father God, you are Almighty and I praise you. You are my heavenly Father who keeps promises. You made the heavens and the earth and you who created me and loved me unconditionally. Father God, you hate the sin of adultery. You are a jealous God and punished those who does not honor and turn away from you. Father God, thank you that you are merciful and full of grace, thank you that you have chosen me and saved me from the kingdom of darkness. Thank you Jesus and continually transfrom me to a person that you want me to be. Oh Father, use me mightily as your servant and I pray that I will be faithful to you as you are to me, loving as you are to me and gracious as you are to me. Father help me that I may live a Christlike character so I can be blessing to other people and that they may be attracted to my life so I can bring more people to Jesus. This I pray in the Mighty Name of Jesus!

Of David. I will extol you, my God and King, and bless your name forever and ever. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:2  Every day I will bless you and praise your name forever and ever. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:3  Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised, and his greatness is unsearchable. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:4  One generation shall commend your works to another, and shall declare your mighty acts. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:5  On the glorious splendor of your majesty, and on your wondrous works, I will meditate. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:6  They shall speak of the might of your awesome deeds, and I will declare your greatness. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:7  They shall pour forth the fame of your abundant goodness and shall sing aloud of your righteousness. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:8  The LORD is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:9  The LORD is good to all, and his mercy is over all that he has made. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:10  All your works shall give thanks to you, O LORD, and all your saints shall bless you! &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:11  They shall speak of the glory of your kingdom and tell of your power, &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:12  to make known to the children of man your mighty deeds, and the glorious splendor of your kingdom. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:13  Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures throughout all generations. (The LORD is faithful in all his words and kind in all his works.) &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:14  The LORD upholds all who are falling and raises up all who are bowed down. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:15  The eyes of all look to you, and you give them their food in due season. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:16  You open your hand; you satisfy the desire of every living thing. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:17  The LORD is righteous in all his ways and kind in all his works. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:18  The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:19  He fulfills the desire of those who fear him; he also hears their cry and saves them. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:20  The LORD preserves all who love him, but all the wicked he will destroy. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 145:21  My mouth will speak the praise of the LORD, and let all flesh bless his holy name forever and ever. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(O)This chapter tells me of my security in the Lord. I do not see any reason why I should not praise God everyday because of His wonderful deeds (vs 1-14) . In v15, those who look, watch and expect from Him will never be hungry. In v20, I will be guarded, I will be attended and protected by the Lord. If God is for me who can be against me? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(A)My Lord is faithful and who can be more faithful than God. Am I faithful to Him? He gives me grace and mercy but am I extending it to others? Lord I praise you and thank you but am I obedient to you?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(P) Oh graciously Father, search me now and see inside my heart. Forgive me for my unfaithfulness. Lead me to righteousness and help me to become more and more like Christ everyday. Give me the grace to be faithful and obedient to you that I may always medidate into your words and apply it in my life. Lord I will put all my trust in you because there is no help in other than you alone. I will not find security and protection other than you alone my Lord and my Father in heaven.

As I live, declares the Lord GOD, I will not be inquired of by you. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:4  Will you judge them, son of man, will you judge them? Let them know the abominations of their fathers, &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:5  and say to them, Thus says the Lord GOD: On the day when I chose Israel, I swore to the offspring of the house of Jacob, making myself known to them in the land of Egypt; I swore to them, saying, I am the LORD your God. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:6  On that day I swore to them that I would bring them out of the land of Egypt into a land that I had searched out for them, a land flowing with milk and honey, the most glorious of all lands. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:7  And I said to them, Cast away the detestable things your eyes feast on, every one of you, and do not defile yourselves with the idols of Egypt; I am the LORD your God. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:8  But they rebelled against me and were not willing to listen to me. None of them cast away the detestable things their eyes feasted on, nor did they forsake the idols of Egypt. "Then I said I would pour out my wrath upon them and spend my anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:9  But I acted for the sake of my name, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations among whom they lived, in whose sight I made myself known to them in bringing them out of the land of Egypt. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:10  So I led them out of the land of Egypt and brought them into the wilderness. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:11  I gave them my statutes and made known to them my rules, by which, if a person does them, he shall live. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:12  Moreover, I gave them my Sabbaths, as a sign between me and them, that they might know that I am the LORD who sanctifies them. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:13  But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness. They did not walk in my statutes but rejected my rules, by which, if a person does them, he shall live; and my Sabbaths they greatly profaned. "Then I said I would pour out my wrath upon them in the wilderness, to make a full end of them. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:14  But I acted for the sake of my name, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, in whose sight I had brought them out. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:15  Moreover, I swore to them in the wilderness that I would not bring them into the land that I had given them, a land flowing with milk and honey, the most glorious of all lands, &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:16  because they rejected my rules and did not walk in my statutes, and profaned my Sabbaths; for their heart went after their idols. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:17  Nevertheless, my eye spared them, and I did not destroy them or make a full end of them in the wilderness. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:18  "And I said to their children in the wilderness, Do not walk in the statutes of your fathers, nor keep their rules, nor defile yourselves with their idols. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:19  I am the LORD your God; walk in my statutes, and be careful to obey my rules, &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:20  and keep my Sabbaths holy that they may be a sign between me and you, that you may know that I am the LORD your God. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:21  But the children rebelled against me. They did not walk in my statutes and were not careful to obey my rules, by which, if a person does them, he shall live; they profaned my Sabbaths. "Then I said I would pour out my wrath upon them and spend my anger against them in the wilderness. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:22  But I withheld my hand and acted for the sake of my name, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, in whose sight I had brought them out. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:23  Moreover, I swore to them in the wilderness that I would scatter them among the nations and disperse them through the countries, &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:24  because they had not obeyed my rules, but had rejected my statutes and profaned my Sabbaths, and their eyes were set on their fathers' idols. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:25  Moreover, I gave them statutes that were not good and rules by which they could not have life, &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:26  and I defiled them through their very gifts in their offering up all their firstborn, that I might devastate them. I did it that they might know that I am the LORD. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:27  "Therefore, son of man, speak to the house of Israel and say to them, Thus says the Lord GOD: In this also your fathers blasphemed me, by dealing treacherously with me. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:28  For when I had brought them into the land that I swore to give them, then wherever they saw any high hill or any leafy tree, there they offered their sacrifices and there they presented the provocation of their offering; there they sent up their pleasing aromas, and there they poured out their drink offerings. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:29  (I said to them, What is the high place to which you go? So its name is called Bamah to this day.) &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:30  "Therefore say to the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord GOD: Will you defile yourselves after the manner of your fathers and go whoring after their detestable things? &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:31  When you present your gifts and offer up your children in fire, you defile yourselves with all your idols to this day. And shall I be inquired of by you, O house of Israel? As I live, declares the Lord GOD, I will not be inquired of by you. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:32  "What is in your mind shall never happen--the thought, 'Let us be like the nations, like the tribes of the countries, and worship wood and stone.' &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:33  "As I live, declares the Lord GOD, surely with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm and with wrath poured out I will be king over you. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:34  I will bring you out from the peoples and gather you out of the countries where you are scattered, with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, and with wrath poured out. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:35  And I will bring you into the wilderness of the peoples, and there I will enter into judgment with you face to face. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:36  As I entered into judgment with your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so I will enter into judgment with you, declares the Lord GOD. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:37  I will make you pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:38  I will purge out the rebels from among you, and those who transgress against me. I will bring them out of the land where they sojourn, but they shall not enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the LORD. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:39  "As for you, O house of Israel, thus says the Lord GOD: Go serve every one of you his idols, now and hereafter, if you will not listen to me; but my holy name you shall no more profane with your gifts and your idols. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:40  "For on my holy mountain, the mountain height of Israel, declares the Lord GOD, there all the house of Israel, all of them, shall serve me in the land. There I will accept them, and there I will require your contributions and the choicest of your gifts, with all your sacred offerings. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:41  As a pleasing aroma I will accept you, when I bring you out from the peoples and gather you out of the countries where you have been scattered. And I will manifest my holiness among you in the sight of the nations. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:42  And you shall know that I am the LORD, when I bring you into the land of Israel, the country that I swore to give to your fathers. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:43  And there you shall remember your ways and all your deeds with which you have defiled yourselves, and you shall loathe yourselves for all the evils that you have committed. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:44  And you shall know that I am the LORD, when I deal with you for my name's sake, not according to your evil ways, nor according to your corrupt deeds, O house of Israel, declares the Lord GOD." &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:45  And the word of the LORD came to me: &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:46  "Son of man, set your face toward the southland; preach against the south, and prophesy against the forest land in the Negeb. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:47  Say to the forest of the Negeb, Hear the word of the LORD: Thus says the Lord GOD, Behold, I will kindle a fire in you, and it shall devour every green tree in you and every dry tree. The blazing flame shall not be quenched, and all faces from south to north shall be scorched by it. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:48  All flesh shall see that I the LORD have kindled it; it shall not be quenched." &lt;br /&gt;Eze 20:49  Then I said, "Ah, Lord GOD! They are saying of me, 'Is he not a maker of parables?'" &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Father God, thank you for this new day you have given me. I praised you for who you are. You are a loving Father, a faithful One who gives me another life. Thank you for the life that you gave me, thank you for the good health and thank you for this day you have made for me. Oh Father, protect me from evil today that I may not stumble against you. Lord I am weak but your grace is sufficient for me when I am weak. Helped me remember your commandments that I may not go astray. Lead me to an everlasting way and help me do the things in accordance to your will. I pray that you guard myself from all temptation. Guard my eyes that they will not lust, guard my thoughts that they may be pure and guard my heart that it will not deceive me. Oh Lord you are the master of my heart. You know the deepest secret of my heart. Search my heart and lead me righfully In Jesus Name I pray AMEN!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5172761580667431820-8224854807663334814?l=walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/feeds/8224854807663334814/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/05/lead-me-to-everlasting-way.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/8224854807663334814'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/8224854807663334814'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/05/lead-me-to-everlasting-way.html' title='Lead me to an everlasting way'/><author><name>rodge</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18409986493101672062</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SciiLty0UdI/AAAAAAAAAHM/qSNT7hquJqM/S220/IMG_0795b.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5172761580667431820.post-6524321123307008412</id><published>2009-05-01T06:50:00.003+08:00</published><updated>2009-05-01T12:27:52.457+08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='judgement'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='indignation'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fuel'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='blood'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sheath'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='profane'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='visions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='skillful'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='poloshed'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='created'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='wrath'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='hands'/><title type='text'>Make me a person You want me to be</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SforioW2xEI/AAAAAAAAALc/PsBi-pIqmlE/s1600-h/445807350JHoiYW_th.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 100px; height: 75px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SforioW2xEI/AAAAAAAAALc/PsBi-pIqmlE/s200/445807350JHoiYW_th.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330620982895232066" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:1  The word of the LORD came to me: &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:2  "Son of man, set your face toward Jerusalem and preach against the sanctuaries. Prophesy against the land of Israel &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:3  and say to the land of Israel, Thus says the LORD: Behold, I am against you and will draw my sword from its sheath and will cut off from you both righteous and wicked. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:4  Because I will cut off from you both righteous and wicked, therefore my sword shall be drawn from its sheath against all flesh from south to north. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:5  And all flesh shall know that I am the LORD. I have drawn my sword from its sheath; it shall not be sheathed again. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:6  "As for you, son of man, groan; with breaking heart and bitter grief, groan before their eyes. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:7  And when they say to you, 'Why do you groan?' you shall say, 'Because of the news that it is coming. Every heart will melt, and all hands will be feeble; every spirit will faint, and all knees will be weak as water. Behold, it is coming, and it will be fulfilled,'" declares the Lord GOD. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:8  And the word of the LORD came to me: &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:9  "Son of man, prophesy and say, Thus says the Lord, say: "A sword, a sword is sharpened and also polished, &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:10  sharpened for slaughter, polished to flash like lightning! (Or shall we rejoice? You have despised the rod, my son, with everything of wood.) &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:11  So the sword is given to be polished, that it may be grasped in the hand. It is sharpened and polished to be given into the hand of the slayer. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:12  Cry out and wail, son of man, for it is against my people. It is against all the princes of Israel. They are delivered over to the sword with my people. Strike therefore upon your thigh. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:13  For it will not be a testing--what could it do if you despise the rod?" declares the Lord GOD. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:14  "As for you, son of man, prophesy. Clap your hands and let the sword come down twice, yes, three times, the sword for those to be slain. It is the sword for the great slaughter, which surrounds them, &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:15  that their hearts may melt, and many stumble. At all their gates I have given the glittering sword. Ah, it is made like lightning; it is taken up for slaughter. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:16  Cut sharply to the right; set yourself to the left, wherever your face is directed. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:17  I also will clap my hands, and I will satisfy my fury; I the LORD have spoken." &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:18  The word of the LORD came to me again: &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:19  "As for you, son of man, mark two ways for the sword of the king of Babylon to come. Both of them shall come from the same land. And make a signpost; make it at the head of the way to a city. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:20  Mark a way for the sword to come to Rabbah of the Ammonites and to Judah, into Jerusalem the fortified. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:21  For the king of Babylon stands at the parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to use divination. He shakes the arrows; he consults the teraphim; he looks at the liver. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:22  Into his right hand comes the divination for Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to open the mouth with murder, to lift up the voice with shouting, to set battering rams against the gates, to cast up mounds, to build siege towers. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:23  But to them it will seem like a false divination. They have sworn solemn oaths, but he brings their guilt to remembrance, that they may be taken. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:24  "Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: Because you have made your guilt to be remembered, in that your transgressions are uncovered, so that in all your deeds your sins appear--because you have come to remembrance, you shall be taken in hand. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:25  And you, O profane wicked one, prince of Israel, whose day has come, the time of your final punishment, &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:26  thus says the Lord GOD: Remove the turban and take off the crown. Things shall not remain as they are. Exalt that which is low, and bring low that which is exalted. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:27  A ruin, ruin, ruin I will make it. This also shall not be, until he comes, the one to whom judgment belongs, and I will give it to him. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:28  "And you, son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus says the Lord GOD concerning the Ammonites and concerning their reproach; say, A sword, a sword is drawn for the slaughter. It is polished to consume and to flash like lightning-- &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:29  while they see for you false visions, while they divine lies for you--to place you on the necks of the profane wicked, whose day has come, the time of their final punishment. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:30  Return it to its sheath. In the place where you were created, in the land of your origin, I will judge you. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:31  And I will pour out my indignation upon you; I will blow upon you with the fire of my wrath, and I will deliver you into the hands of brutish men, skillful to destroy. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 21:32  You shall be fuel for the fire. Your blood shall be in the midst of the land. You shall be no more remembered, for I the LORD have spoken." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Father God, You are Sovereign and I praise you. You are faithful and merciful. Lord Almighty you created me and I thank you that you are my Father in heaven. Thank you that you have chosen me. I humble myself before your throne, Lord continue to transform my life, make me a person you want me to be. I commit everything to you today Oh Lord. Guard me and protect me against the power of evil one today. Guard my thoughts, my heart and my eyes that they may be pure.

You shall go like an exile from your place to another place in their sight. Perhaps they will understand, though they are a rebellious house. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:4  You shall bring out your baggage by day in their sight, as baggage for exile, and you shall go out yourself at evening in their sight, as those do who must go into exile. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:5  In their sight dig through the wall, and bring your baggage out through it. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:6  In their sight you shall lift the baggage upon your shoulder and carry it out at dusk. You shall cover your face that you may not see the land, for I have made you a sign for the house of Israel." &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:7  And I did as I was commanded. I brought out my baggage by day, as baggage for exile, and in the evening I dug through the wall with my own hands. I brought out my baggage at dusk, carrying it on my shoulder in their sight. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:8  In the morning the word of the LORD came to me: &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:9  "Son of man, has not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said to you, 'What are you doing?' &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:10  Say to them, 'Thus says the Lord GOD: This oracle concerns the prince in Jerusalem and all the house of Israel who are in it.' &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:11  Say, 'I am a sign for you: as I have done, so shall it be done to them. They shall go into exile, into captivity.' &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:12  And the prince who is among them shall lift his baggage upon his shoulder at dusk, and shall go out. They shall dig through the wall to bring him out through it. He shall cover his face, that he may not see the land with his eyes. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:13  And I will spread my net over him, and he shall be taken in my snare. And I will bring him to Babylon, the land of the Chaldeans, yet he shall not see it, and he shall die there. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:14  And I will scatter toward every wind all who are around him, his helpers and all his troops, and I will unsheathe the sword after them. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:15  And they shall know that I am the LORD, when I disperse them among the nations and scatter them among the countries. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:16  But I will let a few of them escape from the sword, from famine and pestilence, that they may declare all their abominations among the nations where they go, and may know that I am the LORD." &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:17  And the word of the LORD came to me: &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:18  "Son of man, eat your bread with quaking, and drink water with trembling and with anxiety. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:19  And say to the people of the land, Thus says the Lord GOD concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem in the land of Israel: They shall eat their bread with anxiety, and drink water in dismay. In this way her land will be stripped of all it contains, on account of the violence of all those who dwell in it. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:20  And the inhabited cities shall be laid waste, and the land shall become a desolation; and you shall know that I am the LORD." &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:21  And the word of the LORD came to me: &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:22  "Son of man, what is this proverb that you have about the land of Israel, saying, 'The days grow long, and every vision comes to nothing'? &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:23  Tell them therefore, 'Thus says the Lord GOD: I will put an end to this proverb, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel.' But say to them, The days are near, and the fulfillment of every vision. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:24  For there shall be no more any false vision or flattering divination within the house of Israel. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:25  For I am the LORD; I will speak the word that I will speak, and it will be performed. It will no longer be delayed, but in your days, O rebellious house, I will speak the word and perform it, declares the Lord GOD." &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:26  And the word of the LORD came to me: &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:27  "Son of man, behold, they of the house of Israel say, 'The vision that he sees is for many days from now, and he prophesies of times far off.' &lt;br /&gt;Eze 12:28  Therefore say to them, Thus says the Lord GOD: None of my words will be delayed any longer, but the word that I speak will be performed, declares the Lord GOD." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Heavenly Father, I praise you and I thank you for your lovingkindness to me and to my family. Thank you for this day that you made for me. You are a Sovereign and Almighty God. Nothing is impossible to you. Thank you for being my father in heaven and thank you for sending your son Jesus to die for my sins. Oh Lord thank you for giving me eternal life and thank you for chosing me as you child. Father in heaven, I commit to you everything today that I will walk in your ways. Lead me today in accordance to your will that I may not go astray. Help me and guide my in all decisions that I make and helped me that I may do your will. Help me that I may discern it and you will continiously open my eyes and my heart to your words. Filled me with your Spirit that I may always allow you to take control of my life In Jesus name.

Fill your hands with burning coals from between the cherubim, and scatter them over the city." And he went in before my eyes. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:3  Now the cherubim were standing on the south side of the house, when the man went in, and a cloud filled the inner court. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:4  And the glory of the LORD went up from the cherub to the threshold of the house, and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was filled with the brightness of the glory of the LORD. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:5  And the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard as far as the outer court, like the voice of God Almighty when he speaks. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:6  And when he commanded the man clothed in linen, "Take fire from between the whirling wheels, from between the cherubim," he went in and stood beside a wheel. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:7  And a cherub stretched out his hand from between the cherubim to the fire that was between the cherubim, and took some of it and put it into the hands of the man clothed in linen, who took it and went out. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:8  The cherubim appeared to have the form of a human hand under their wings. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:9  And I looked, and behold, there were four wheels beside the cherubim, one beside each cherub, and the appearance of the wheels was like sparkling beryl. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:10  And as for their appearance, the four had the same likeness, as if a wheel were within a wheel. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:11  When they went, they went in any of their four directions without turning as they went, but in whatever direction the front wheel faced, the others followed without turning as they went. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:12  And their whole body, their rims, and their spokes, their wings, and the wheels were full of eyes all around--the wheels that the four of them had. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:13  As for the wheels, they were called in my hearing "the whirling wheels." &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:14  And every one had four faces: the first face was the face of the cherub, and the second face was a human face, and the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:15  And the cherubim mounted up. These were the living creatures that I saw by the Chebar canal. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:16  And when the cherubim went, the wheels went beside them. And when the cherubim lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the wheels did not turn from beside them. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:17  When they stood still, these stood still, and when they mounted up, these mounted up with them, for the spirit of the living creatures was in them. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:18  Then the glory of the LORD went out from the threshold of the house, and stood over the cherubim. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:19  And the cherubim lifted up their wings and mounted up from the earth before my eyes as they went out, with the wheels beside them. And they stood at the entrance of the east gate of the house of the LORD, and the glory of the God of Israel was over them. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:20  These were the living creatures that I saw underneath the God of Israel by the Chebar canal; and I knew that they were cherubim. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:21  Each had four faces, and each four wings, and underneath their wings the likeness of human hands. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 10:22  And as for the likeness of their faces, they were the same faces whose appearance I had seen by the Chebar canal. Each one of them went straight forward. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Father God, you are awesome and Almighty. You created everything on heaven and earth. There is nothing hard for you and I praise you and thank you this day. Father God, I humble myself before your holy throne, bless me today and comfort me. Embrace me with your love and put the peace and gladness in my heart. Remove any anxiety or worries that is within me that I may live a life pleasing to you. With these weaknesses I am strong with you Oh Lord. You are my fortress and my cornerstone. You are my refuge and you defend me in anything that may harm me. I rebuke and reject any works of evil in my life and I fixed my eyes on Jesus who is the author and perfector of life. All praises and glory to your name and this I pray In Jesus Mighty Name, AMEN!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5172761580667431820-2327762043451224355?l=walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/feeds/2327762043451224355/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/you-created-everything.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/2327762043451224355'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/2327762043451224355'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/you-created-everything.html' title='You created everything'/><author><name>rodge</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18409986493101672062</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SciiLty0UdI/AAAAAAAAAHM/qSNT7hquJqM/S220/IMG_0795b.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SfTrtMdIKfI/AAAAAAAAALM/rM5ffaR2nxE/s72-c/306322093eisYCG_th.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5172761580667431820.post-6135151822107248645</id><published>2009-04-24T07:36:00.005+08:00</published><updated>2009-04-24T07:44:35.120+08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='lift'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='glory'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='great'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='stubborn'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='life'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='roar'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='listen'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='understand'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='attention'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='diamond'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='rock'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='exile'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Jesus'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='nations'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='love'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='foreign'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='language'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mortal man'/><title type='text'>Your spirit lives in me</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SfD9J0CyEhI/AAAAAAAAALE/CoHoMxHbn28/s1600-h/Picture23.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 132px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SfD9J0CyEhI/AAAAAAAAALE/CoHoMxHbn28/s200/Picture23.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5328036704210260498" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:1  God said, "Mortal man, eat this scroll; then go and speak to the people of Israel." &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:2  So I opened my mouth, and he gave me the scroll to eat. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:3  He said, "Mortal man, eat this scroll that I give you; fill your stomach with it." I ate it, and it tasted as sweet as honey. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:4  Then God said, "Mortal man, go to the people of Israel and say to them whatever I tell you to say. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:5  I am not sending you to a nation that speaks a difficult foreign language, but to the Israelites. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:6  If I sent you to great nations that spoke difficult languages you didn't understand, they would listen to you. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:7  But none of the people of Israel will be willing to listen; they will not even listen to me. All of them are stubborn and defiant. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:8  Now I will make you as stubborn and as tough as they are. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:9  I will make you as firm as a rock, as hard as a diamond; don't be afraid of those rebels." &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:10  God continued, "Mortal man, pay close attention and remember everything I tell you. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:11  Then go to the people of your nation who are in exile and tell them what I, the Sovereign LORD, am saying to them, whether they pay attention to you or not." &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:12  Then God's spirit lifted me up, and I heard behind me the loud roar of a voice that said, "Praise the glory of the LORD in heaven above!" &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:13  I heard the wings of the creatures beating together in the air, and the noise of the wheels, as loud as an earthquake. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:14  The power of the LORD came on me with great force, and as his spirit carried me off, I felt bitter and angry. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:15  So I came to Tel Abib beside the Chebar River, where the exiles were living, and for seven days I stayed there, overcome by what I had seen and heard. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:16  After the seven days had passed, the LORD spoke to me. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:17  "Mortal man," he said, "I am making you a lookout for the nation of Israel. You will pass on to them the warnings I give you. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:18  If I announce that someone evil is going to die but you do not warn him to change his ways so that he can save his life, he will die, still a sinner, but I will hold you responsible for his death. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:19  If you do warn an evil man and he doesn't stop sinning, he will die, still a sinner, but your life will be spared. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:20  "If someone truly good starts doing evil and I put him in a dangerous situation, he will die if you do not warn him. He will die because of his sins---I will not remember the good he did---and I will hold you responsible for his death. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:21  If you do warn a good man not to sin and he listens to you and doesn't sin, he will stay alive, and your life will also be spared." &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:22  I felt the powerful presence of the LORD and heard him say to me, "Get up and go out into the valley. I will talk to you there." &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:23  So I went out into the valley, and there I saw the glory of the LORD, just as I had seen it beside the Chebar River. I fell face downward on the ground, &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:24  but God's spirit entered me and raised me to my feet. The LORD said to me, "Go home and shut yourself up in the house. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:25  You will be tied with ropes, mortal man, and you will not be able to go out in public. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:26  I will paralyze your tongue so that you won't be able to warn these rebellious people. &lt;br /&gt;Eze 3:27  Then, when I speak to you again and give you back the power of speech, you will tell them what I, the Sovereign LORD, am saying. Some of them will listen, but some will ignore you, for they are a nation of rebels." &lt;br /&gt;Father God, How faithful you are to me and I praise you. I worship you today and I pray that I will always put my faith and trust in you. I cast my fears and worries to you this day and I pray for comfort. Oh God thank you for being your child. Thank you for Jesus who died for all my sins. Thank you for giving me eternal life and saving me from eternal punishment. Lord help me today that I may live a life pleasing to you. That I may always practice your presence in my life because your Spirit lives in me. Help me that I may always consult you in every decisions that I will do today. I commit everything to you today my Lord. Bless me and guide me in all my ways that I may not lean unto my own understanding but your understanding. Give me wisdom to do all things in accordance to your will, In Jesus mighty name I pray, AMEN!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5172761580667431820-6135151822107248645?l=walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/feeds/6135151822107248645/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/your-spirit-lives-in-me.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/6135151822107248645'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/6135151822107248645'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/your-spirit-lives-in-me.html' title='Your spirit lives in me'/><author><name>rodge</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18409986493101672062</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SciiLty0UdI/AAAAAAAAAHM/qSNT7hquJqM/S220/IMG_0795b.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SfD9J0CyEhI/AAAAAAAAALE/CoHoMxHbn28/s72-c/Picture23.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5172761580667431820.post-4071004924687927649</id><published>2009-04-22T07:02:00.002+08:00</published><updated>2009-04-22T07:06:31.276+08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Nebuchadnezzar'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Jesus'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ways'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='teach'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='direction'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='walls'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='live'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='burn their gods'/><title type='text'>Teach me your ways</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/Se5RHwFpyfI/AAAAAAAAAK8/mJN_BepJlGQ/s1600-h/full+of+glory.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 132px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/Se5RHwFpyfI/AAAAAAAAAK8/mJN_BepJlGQ/s200/full+of+glory.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327284602835421682" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:1  Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king of Judah, and he ruled in Jerusalem for eleven years. His mother's name was Hamutal, the daughter of the Jeremiah who lived in the city of Libnah. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:2  King Zedekiah sinned against the LORD, just as King Jehoiakim had done. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:3  The LORD became so angry with the people of Jerusalem and Judah that he banished them from his sight. Zedekiah rebelled against King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylonia, &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:4  and so Nebuchadnezzar came with all his army and attacked Jerusalem on the tenth day of the tenth month of the ninth year of Zedekiah's reign. They set up camp outside the city, built siege walls around it, &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:5  and kept it under siege until Zedekiah's eleventh year. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:6  On the ninth day of the fourth month of that same year, when the famine was so bad that the people had nothing left to eat, &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:7  the city walls were broken through. Although the Babylonians were surrounding the city, all the soldiers escaped during the night. They left by way of the royal garden, went through the gateway connecting the two walls, and fled in the direction of the Jordan Valley. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:8  But the Babylonian army pursued King Zedekiah, captured him in the plains near Jericho, and all his soldiers deserted him. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:9  Zedekiah was taken to King Nebuchadnezzar, who was in the city of Riblah in the territory of Hamath, and there Nebuchadnezzar passed sentence on him. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:10  At Riblah he put Zedekiah's sons to death while Zedekiah was looking on and he also had the officials of Judah executed. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:11  After that, he had Zedekiah's eyes put out and had him placed in chains and taken to Babylon. Zedekiah remained in prison in Babylon until the day he died. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:12  On the tenth day of the fifth month of the nineteenth year of King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylonia, Nebuzaradan, adviser to the king and commander of his army, entered Jerusalem. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:13  He burned down the Temple, the palace, and the houses of all the important people in Jerusalem; &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:14  and his soldiers tore down the city walls. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:15  Then Nebuzaradan took away to Babylonia the people who were left in the city, the remaining skilled workers, and those who had deserted to the Babylonians. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:16  But he left in Judah some of the poorest people, who owned no property, and he put them to work in the vineyards and fields. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:17  The Babylonians broke in pieces the bronze columns and the carts that were in the Temple, together with the large bronze tank, and they took all the bronze to Babylon. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:18  They also took away the shovels and the ash containers used in cleaning the altar, the tools used in tending the lamps, the bowls used for catching the blood from the sacrifices, the bowls used for burning incense, and all the other bronze articles used in the Temple service. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:19  They took away everything that was made of gold or silver: the small bowls, the pans used for carrying live coals, the bowls for holding the blood from the sacrifices, the ash containers, the lampstands, the bowls used for incense, and the bowls used for pouring out wine offerings. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:20  The bronze objects that King Solomon had made for the Temple---the two columns, the carts, the large tank, and the twelve bulls that supported it---were too heavy to weigh. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:21  The two columns were identical: each one was 27 feet high and 18 feet around. They were hollow, and the metal was 3 inches thick. On top of each column was a bronze capital 7 1/2 feet high, and all around it was a grillwork decorated with pomegranates, all of which was also made of bronze. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:22  (SEE 52:21) &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:23  On the grillwork of each column there were a hundred pomegranates in all, and ninety-six of these were visible from the ground. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:24  In addition, Nebuzaradan, the commanding officer, took away as prisoners Seraiah the High Priest, Zephaniah the priest next in rank, and the three other important Temple officials. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:25  From the city he took the officer who had been in command of the troops, seven of the king's personal advisers who were still in the city, the commander's assistant, who was in charge of military records, and sixty other important men. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:26  Nebuzaradan took them to the king of Babylonia, who was in the city of Riblah &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:27  in the territory of Hamath. There the king had them beaten and put to death. So the people of Judah were carried away from their land into exile. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:28  This is the record of the people that Nebuchadnezzar took away as prisoners: in his seventh year as king he carried away 3,023; &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:29  in his eighteenth year, 832 from Jerusalem; &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:30  and in his twenty-third year, 745---taken away by Nebuzaradan. In all, 4,600 people were taken away. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:31  In the year that Evil-merodach became king of Babylonia, he showed kindness to King Jehoiachin of Judah by releasing him from prison. This happened on the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth month of the thirty-seventh year after Jehoiachin had been taken away as a prisoner. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:32  Evil-merodach treated him kindly and gave him a position of greater honor than he gave the other kings who were exiles with him in Babylonia. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:33  So Jehoiachin was permitted to change from his prison clothes and to dine at the king's table for the rest of his life. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 52:34  Each day for as long as he lived, he was given a regular allowance for his needs. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Father God, I thank you and I praised you this day for loving me. I thank you for your faithfulness. I thank you that you have given me another life to live on this earth. Oh Lord filled me with Your Holy Spirit that I may do the things above. Help me focus on the things unseen and not on seen. Help me that I can be blessing to my family and other people. Thank you for teaching me day by day. Continue to teach me your way and not my way, I put my trust in you my loving Father who created the universe and the stars. Oh how vast is your knowledge! Your ways is not my ways. The heaven declares your glory! Thank you that I have big God who loves me unconditionally. Father in heaven, this day, I pray that you give me wisdom to do the things that you want me to accomplished and I commit to you everything, guard my eyes, tongue, my thoughts and my heart that I may not sinned against you, In Jesus name AMEN!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5172761580667431820-4071004924687927649?l=walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/feeds/4071004924687927649/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/teach-me-your-ways.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/4071004924687927649'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/4071004924687927649'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/teach-me-your-ways.html' title='Teach me your ways'/><author><name>rodge</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18409986493101672062</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SciiLty0UdI/AAAAAAAAAHM/qSNT7hquJqM/S220/IMG_0795b.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/Se5RHwFpyfI/AAAAAAAAAK8/mJN_BepJlGQ/s72-c/full+of+glory.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5172761580667431820.post-6370756446418244051</id><published>2009-04-21T10:45:00.001+08:00</published><updated>2009-04-24T07:11:01.760+08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='rest'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='destroy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sorrow'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cry'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='work'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Jesus'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='children'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='attacked'/><title type='text'>Renewing of mind</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/Se00bMc3n-I/AAAAAAAAAK0/7ld-2OPJWtQ/s1600-h/images.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 130px; height: 98px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/Se00bMc3n-I/AAAAAAAAAK0/7ld-2OPJWtQ/s200/images.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5326971576052588514" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jer 47:1  Before the king of Egypt attacked Gaza, the LORD spoke to me about Philistia. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 47:2  He said: "Look! Waters are rising in the north and will rush like a river in flood. They will cover the land and everything on it, cities and the people who live there. People will call out for help; everyone on earth will cry bitterly. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 47:3  They will hear the hoofbeats of horses, the clatter of chariots, the rumble of wheels. Parents will not turn back for their children; their hands will hang limp at their sides. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 47:4  The time has come to destroy Philistia, to cut off from Tyre and Sidon all the help that remains. I, the LORD, will destroy the Philistines, all who came from the shores of Crete. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 47:5  Great sorrow has come to the people of Gaza, and Ashkelon's people are silent. How long will the rest of Philistia mourn? &lt;br /&gt;Jer 47:6  You cry out, 'Sword of the LORD! How long will you go on slashing? Go back to your scabbard, stay there and rest!' &lt;br /&gt;Jer 47:7  But how can it rest, when I have given it work to do? I have commanded it to attack Ashkelon and the people who live on the coast." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Father God, I thank you today for giving me another life, another strength and another day that you made for me. Lord I praised you because you love me so much, so much that you gave your only Son Jesus to die for me, to save me from eternal punishment. Thank you Father for your unconditional love and this day, deliver me from any evil. Help me live a pure life today, that I may not be deceived by this world, that I may continually worship you in anything that I do. Oh God, I commit to you myself and all the things that I will do today. Help me to continually be transformed by the renewing of my mind.  I rebuke any works of evil in Jesus name. Father help me to conitually use the power of the Holy Spirit, the same power you used when You raised Jesus from the dead. Oh my Lord, help me to be reminded of my position in Christ, that I am a child of God and the power of the enemy cannot tempt and deceive me because greater is You that lives in me than he that lives in this world. He cannot snatch me anymore from your hand because you are Mighty and powerful. Father all praises to you in Jesus Name I pray, AMEN!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5172761580667431820-6370756446418244051?l=walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/feeds/6370756446418244051/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/renewing-of-mind.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/6370756446418244051'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/6370756446418244051'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/renewing-of-mind.html' title='Renewing of mind'/><author><name>rodge</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18409986493101672062</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SciiLty0UdI/AAAAAAAAAHM/qSNT7hquJqM/S220/IMG_0795b.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/Se00bMc3n-I/AAAAAAAAAK0/7ld-2OPJWtQ/s72-c/images.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5172761580667431820.post-8010237493276273546</id><published>2009-04-20T07:13:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2009-04-20T07:18:07.863+08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='holy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='commandments'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='clean'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='obey'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Jesus'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='eternal life'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='conquer'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fire'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='burn their gods'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sinner'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='consequence'/><title type='text'>There will be consequence</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SeuwxNCxl7I/AAAAAAAAAKs/IYafazQPe1g/s1600-h/2718543230061806988kFGTpg_th.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 100px; height: 75px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SeuwxNCxl7I/AAAAAAAAAKs/IYafazQPe1g/s200/2718543230061806988kFGTpg_th.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5326545343657121714" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jer 43:1  I finished telling the people everything that the LORD their God had sent me to tell them. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 43:2  Then Azariah son of Hoshaiah and Johanan son of Kareah and all the other arrogant men said to me, "You are lying. The LORD our God did not send you to tell us not to go and live in Egypt. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 43:3  Baruch son of Neriah has stirred you up against us, so that the Babylonians will gain power over us and can either kill us or take us away to Babylonia." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 43:4  So neither Johanan nor any of the army officers nor any of the people would obey the LORD's command to remain in the land of Judah. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 43:5  Then Johanan and all the army officers took everybody left in Judah away to Egypt, together with all the people who had returned from the nations where they had been scattered: &lt;br /&gt;Jer 43:6  the men, the women, the children, and the king's daughters. They took everyone whom Nebuzaradan the commanding officer had left under the care of Gedaliah, including Baruch and me. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 43:7  They disobeyed the LORD's command and went into Egypt as far as the city of Tahpanhes. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 43:8  There the LORD said to me, &lt;br /&gt;Jer 43:9  "Get some large stones and bury them in the mortar of the pavement in front of the entrance to the government building here in the city, and let some of the Israelites see you do it. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 43:10  Then tell them that I, the LORD Almighty, the God of Israel, am going to bring my servant King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylonia to this place, and he will put his throne over these stones that you buried, and will spread the royal tent over them. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 43:11  Nebuchadnezzar will come and defeat Egypt. Those people who are doomed to die of disease will die of disease, those doomed to be taken away as prisoners will be taken away as prisoners, and those doomed to be killed in war will be killed in war. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 43:12  I will set fire to the temples of Egypt's gods, and the king of Babylonia will either burn their gods or carry them off. As shepherds pick their clothes clean of lice, so the king of Babylonia will pick the land of Egypt clean and then leave victorious. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 43:13  He will destroy the sacred stone monuments at Heliopolis in Egypt and will burn down the temples of the Egyptian gods." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Father in Heaven, I praised you this morning. You are a merciful God and and just. You love me even I am a sinner. Thank you for giving me eternal life and choosing me as your adopted child. Thank you for being a loving and gracious father to me. Help me that I may always obey your commandments and that I may not go astray from your way. Help me Father that I may always focus on your Son Jesus and help me always find your way not my own way. Filled me with your Spirit and help me to live a holy life.

They left by way of the royal garden, went through the gateway connecting the two walls, and escaped in the direction of the Jordan Valley. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 39:5  But the Babylonian army pursued them and captured Zedekiah in the plains near Jericho. Then they took him to King Nebuchadnezzar, who was in the city of Riblah in the territory of Hamath, and there Nebuchadnezzar passed sentence on him. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 39:6  At Riblah he put Zedekiah's sons to death while Zedekiah was looking on, and he also had the officials of Judah executed. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 39:7  After that, he had Zedekiah's eyes put out and had him placed in chains to be taken to Babylonia. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 39:8  Meanwhile, the Babylonians burned down the royal palace and the houses of the people and tore down the walls of Jerusalem. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 39:9  Finally Nebuzaradan, the commanding officer, took away as prisoners to Babylonia the people who were left in the city, together with those who had deserted to him. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 39:10  He left in the land of Judah some of the poorest people, who owned no property, and he gave them vineyards and fields. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 39:11  But King Nebuchadnezzar commanded Nebuzaradan, the commanding officer, to give the following order: &lt;br /&gt;Jer 39:12  "Go and find Jeremiah and take good care of him. Do not harm him, but do for him whatever he wants." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 39:13  So Nebuzaradan, together with the high officials Nebushazban and Nergal Sharezer and all the other officers of the king of Babylonia, &lt;br /&gt;Jer 39:14  had me brought from the palace courtyard. They put me under the care of Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam and grandson of Shaphan, who was to see that I got home safely. And so I stayed there among the people. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 39:15  While I was still imprisoned in the palace courtyard, the LORD told me &lt;br /&gt;Jer 39:16  to tell Ebedmelech the Ethiopian that the LORD Almighty, the God of Israel, had said, "Just as I said I would, I am going to bring upon this city destruction and not prosperity. And when this happens, you will be there to see it. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 39:17  But I, the LORD, will protect you, and you will not be handed over to the people you are afraid of. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 39:18  I will keep you safe, and you will not be put to death. You will escape with your life because you have put your trust in me. I, the LORD, have spoken." &lt;br /&gt;Father God, I thank you and I praise you this day. Thank you for this wonderful day you have made for me. Thank you for your faithfulness and I humbly come before your throne. Filled me with your Holy Spirit today that I may live a life that is holy and pleasing to you, Thank you for forgiving all my sins through your son.I put my trust in you today Oh my Lord and I thank you that you will protect me. I put my faith in you today Lord that I will seek your counsel in everything that I do. I praise you and help me that I may not put shame to your name to day, help me to live a life pleasing to you that I may not grieved the Holy Spirit that lives in me. Do not lead me to test and I rebuke any works of evil today because greater is He that lives in me than he that lives in this world In Jesus Name I pray AMEN!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5172761580667431820-6059536074907874845?l=walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/feeds/6059536074907874845/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/i-put-my-faith-in-you.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/6059536074907874845'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/6059536074907874845'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/i-put-my-faith-in-you.html' title='I put my faith in You'/><author><name>rodge</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18409986493101672062</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SciiLty0UdI/AAAAAAAAAHM/qSNT7hquJqM/S220/IMG_0795b.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SekTTOZxwEI/AAAAAAAAAKk/uM06bpJ_rgs/s72-c/prayer.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5172761580667431820.post-1094331675833368352</id><published>2009-04-17T12:48:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2009-04-17T12:53:57.779+08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Father in heaven'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Lord Jesus'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Jesus'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='foundation'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='finishing well'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='love'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='faithfull'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='put my faith and trust'/><title type='text'>You know everything about me</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SegLXJQ987I/AAAAAAAAAKc/kNES2Z0kn7c/s1600-h/324329215rwSWuJ_th.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 100px; height: 75px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SegLXJQ987I/AAAAAAAAAKc/kNES2Z0kn7c/s200/324329215rwSWuJ_th.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5325519051617596338" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:1  "At that time, declares the LORD, I will be the God of all the clans of Israel, and they shall be my people." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:2  Thus says the LORD: "The people who survived the sword found grace in the wilderness; when Israel sought for rest, &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:3  the LORD appeared to him from far away. I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:4  Again I will build you, and you shall be built, O virgin Israel! Again you shall adorn yourself with tambourines and shall go forth in the dance of the merrymakers. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:5  Again you shall plant vineyards on the mountains of Samaria; the planters shall plant and shall enjoy the fruit. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:6  For there shall be a day when watchmen will call in the hill country of Ephraim: 'Arise, and let us go up to Zion, to the LORD our God.'" &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:7  For thus says the LORD: "Sing aloud with gladness for Jacob, and raise shouts for the chief of the nations; proclaim, give praise, and say, 'O LORD, save your people, the remnant of Israel.' &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:8  Behold, I will bring them from the north country and gather them from the farthest parts of the earth, among them the blind and the lame, the pregnant woman and she who is in labor, together; a great company, they shall return here. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:9  With weeping they shall come, and with pleas for mercy I will lead them back, I will make them walk by brooks of water, in a straight path in which they shall not stumble, for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:10  "Hear the word of the LORD, O nations, and declare it in the coastlands far away; say, 'He who scattered Israel will gather him, and will keep him as a shepherd keeps his flock.' &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:11  For the LORD has ransomed Jacob and has redeemed him from hands too strong for him. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:12  They shall come and sing aloud on the height of Zion, and they shall be radiant over the goodness of the LORD, over the grain, the wine, and the oil, and over the young of the flock and the herd; their life shall be like a watered garden, and they shall languish no more. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:13  Then shall the young women rejoice in the dance, and the young men and the old shall be merry. I will turn their mourning into joy; I will comfort them, and give them gladness for sorrow. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:14  I will feast the soul of the priests with abundance, and my people shall be satisfied with my goodness, declares the LORD." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:15  Thus says the LORD: "A voice is heard in Ramah, lamentation and bitter weeping. Rachel is weeping for her children; she refuses to be comforted for her children, because they are no more." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:16  Thus says the LORD: "Keep your voice from weeping, and your eyes from tears, for there is a reward for your work, declares the LORD, and they shall come back from the land of the enemy. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:17  There is hope for your future, declares the LORD, and your children shall come back to their own country. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:18  I have heard Ephraim grieving, 'You have disciplined me, and I was disciplined, like an untrained calf; bring me back that I may be restored, for you are the LORD my God. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:19  For after I had turned away, I relented, and after I was instructed, I struck my thigh; I was ashamed, and I was confounded, because I bore the disgrace of my youth.' &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:20  Is Ephraim my dear son? Is he my darling child? For as often as I speak against him, I do remember him still. Therefore my heart yearns for him; I will surely have mercy on him, declares the LORD. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:21  "Set up road markers for yourself; make yourself guideposts; consider well the highway, the road by which you went. Return, O virgin Israel, return to these your cities. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:22  How long will you waver, O faithless daughter? For the LORD has created a new thing on the earth: a woman encircles a man." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:23  Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: "Once more they shall use these words in the land of Judah and in its cities, when I restore their fortunes: "'The LORD bless you, O habitation of righteousness, O holy hill!' &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:24  And Judah and all its cities shall dwell there together, and the farmers and those who wander with their flocks. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:25  For I will satisfy the weary soul, and every languishing soul I will replenish." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:26  At this I awoke and looked, and my sleep was pleasant to me. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:27  "Behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of man and the seed of beast. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:28  And it shall come to pass that as I have watched over them to pluck up and break down, to overthrow, destroy, and bring harm, so I will watch over them to build and to plant, declares the LORD. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:29  In those days they shall no longer say: "'The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children's teeth are set on edge.' &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:30  But everyone shall die for his own sin. Each man who eats sour grapes, his teeth shall be set on edge. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:31  "Behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah, &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:32  not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, my covenant that they broke, though I was their husband, declares the LORD. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:33  But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the LORD: I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they shall be my people. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:34  And no longer shall each one teach his neighbor and each his brother, saying, 'Know the LORD,' for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest, declares the LORD. For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:35  Thus says the LORD, who gives the sun for light by day and the fixed order of the moon and the stars for light by night, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar-- the LORD of hosts is his name: &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:36  "If this fixed order departs from before me, declares the LORD, then shall the offspring of Israel cease from being a nation before me forever." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:37  Thus says the LORD: "If the heavens above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth below can be explored, then I will cast off all the offspring of Israel for all that they have done, declares the LORD." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:38  "Behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when the city shall be rebuilt for the LORD from the Tower of Hananel to the Corner Gate. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:39  And the measuring line shall go out farther, straight to the hill Gareb, and shall then turn to Goah. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 31:40  The whole valley of the dead bodies and the ashes, and all the fields as far as the brook Kidron, to the corner of the Horse Gate toward the east, shall be sacred to the LORD. It shall not be uprooted or overthrown anymore forever." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Father in Heaven, I praised you this morning and I thank you for all your faithfulness. I humbly come before your throne praising and thanking you for your lovingkindness. Lord make my heart  right with you today that I may be protected from any evil things of this world. Purify my thoughts and search my heart if there is any deceitful thing in it. Lord you are the master of my heart and you know everything about me even the deepest secrets of my heart, you know it. You know when I rise and when I sit down. You know everything about me because you have known me before the foundation of this world.

It said: &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:4  "Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, to all the exiles whom I have sent into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon: &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:5  Build houses and live in them; plant gardens and eat their produce. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:6  Take wives and have sons and daughters; take wives for your sons, and give your daughters in marriage, that they may bear sons and daughters; multiply there, and do not decrease. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:7  But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the LORD on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:8  For thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Do not let your prophets and your diviners who are among you deceive you, and do not listen to the dreams that they dream, &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:9  for it is a lie that they are prophesying to you in my name; I did not send them, declares the LORD. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:10  "For thus says the LORD: When seventy years are completed for Babylon, I will visit you, and I will fulfill to you my promise and bring you back to this place. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:11  For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:12  Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:13  You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:14  I will be found by you, declares the LORD, and I will restore your fortunes and gather you from all the nations and all the places where I have driven you, declares the LORD, and I will bring you back to the place from which I sent you into exile. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:15  "Because you have said, 'The LORD has raised up prophets for us in Babylon,' &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:16  thus says the LORD concerning the king who sits on the throne of David, and concerning all the people who dwell in this city, your kinsmen who did not go out with you into exile: &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:17  'Thus says the LORD of hosts, behold, I am sending on them sword, famine, and pestilence, and I will make them like vile figs that are so rotten they cannot be eaten. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:18  I will pursue them with sword, famine, and pestilence, and will make them a horror to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a curse, a terror, a hissing, and a reproach among all the nations where I have driven them, &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:19  because they did not pay attention to my words, declares the LORD, that I persistently sent to you by my servants the prophets, but you would not listen, declares the LORD.' &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:20  Hear the word of the LORD, all you exiles whom I sent away from Jerusalem to Babylon: &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:21  'Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, concerning Ahab the son of Kolaiah and Zedekiah the son of Maaseiah, who are prophesying a lie to you in my name: Behold, I will deliver them into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and he shall strike them down before your eyes. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:22  Because of them this curse shall be used by all the exiles from Judah in Babylon: "The LORD make you like Zedekiah and Ahab, whom the king of Babylon roasted in the fire," &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:23  because they have done an outrageous thing in Israel, they have committed adultery with their neighbors' wives, and they have spoken in my name lying words that I did not command them. I am the one who knows, and I am witness, declares the LORD.'" &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:24  To Shemaiah of Nehelam you shall say: &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:25  "Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: You have sent letters in your name to all the people who are in Jerusalem, and to Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah the priest, and to all the priests, saying, &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:26  'The LORD has made you priest instead of Jehoiada the priest, to have charge in the house of the LORD over every madman who prophesies, to put him in the stocks and neck irons. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:27  Now why have you not rebuked Jeremiah of Anathoth who is prophesying to you? &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:28  For he has sent to us in Babylon, saying, "Your exile will be long; build houses and live in them, and plant gardens and eat their produce."'" &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:29  Zephaniah the priest read this letter in the hearing of Jeremiah the prophet. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:30  Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah: &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:31  "Send to all the exiles, saying, 'Thus says the LORD concerning Shemaiah of Nehelam: Because Shemaiah had prophesied to you when I did not send him, and has made you trust in a lie, &lt;br /&gt;Jer 29:32  therefore thus says the LORD: Behold, I will punish Shemaiah of Nehelam and his descendants. He shall not have anyone living among this people, and he shall not see the good that I will do to my people, declares the LORD, for he has spoken rebellion against the LORD.'" &lt;br /&gt;Father God, I praised you because you are true to your promises. I seek you and I found you. You chose me but I did not choose you. OH Lord forgive me, I am a sinner but because you sent your son Jesus to die for my sins, you have put me right with you because of my faith in Jesus. Thank you Lord, that you led me to see the light. Father this day, bless me and filled me your Holy Spirit. Guard my thoughts, my eyes and my heart that I may not sin against you this day. Protect me from any evil. I rebuke and reject any works of evil. Help me that I may only focus into your words because I heed it in my heart. Lord, do no let me be astray today from your words, in every single thoughts I have, help me that it may be pure and holy because you are holy. I pray all this in the mighty Name of your Son Jesus, AMEN!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5172761580667431820-4439815807673601710?l=walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/feeds/4439815807673601710/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/you-led-me-to-see-light.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/4439815807673601710'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/4439815807673601710'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/you-led-me-to-see-light.html' title='You led me to see the light'/><author><name>rodge</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18409986493101672062</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SciiLty0UdI/AAAAAAAAAHM/qSNT7hquJqM/S220/IMG_0795b.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SeZwVfhIWaI/AAAAAAAAAKM/LVCG5lqmvhc/s72-c/277313249GhZszE_th.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5172761580667431820.post-5207719712948087006</id><published>2009-04-15T07:07:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2009-04-15T07:17:19.955+08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Father in heaven'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='wonderful things'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='blessings'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='holy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='search my heart'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='deliver form evil'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='open my eyes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='contentment'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='things'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='salvation'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='heart'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='eyes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Jesus'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='prayer'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='worship'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='faithful father'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='kingdom'/><title type='text'>Search my heart</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SeUZen8JJhI/AAAAAAAAAKE/nIA9CDRojXw/s1600-h/514124099mrfojU_th.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 100px; height: 75px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SeUZen8JJhI/AAAAAAAAAKE/nIA9CDRojXw/s200/514124099mrfojU_th.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5324690148343490066" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:1  "The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron; with a point of diamond it is engraved on the tablet of their heart, and on the horns of their altars, &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:2  while their children remember their altars and their Asherim, beside every green tree and on the high hills, &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:3  on the mountains in the open country. Your wealth and all your treasures I will give for spoil as the price of your high places for sin throughout all your territory. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:4  You shall loosen your hand from your heritage that I gave to you, and I will make you serve your enemies in a land that you do not know, for in my anger a fire is kindled that shall burn forever." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:5  Thus says the LORD: "Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart turns away from the LORD. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:6  He is like a shrub in the desert, and shall not see any good come. He shall dwell in the parched places of the wilderness, in an uninhabited salt land. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:7  "Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, whose trust is the LORD. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:8  He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:9  The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it? &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:10  "I the LORD search the heart and test the mind, to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:11  Like the partridge that gathers a brood that she did not hatch, so is he who gets riches but not by justice; in the midst of his days they will leave him, and at his end he will be a fool. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:12  A glorious throne set on high from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:13  O LORD, the hope of Israel, all who forsake you shall be put to shame; those who turn away from you shall be written in the earth, for they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living water. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:14  Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved, for you are my praise. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:15  Behold, they say to me, "Where is the word of the LORD? Let it come!" &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:16  I have not run away from being your shepherd, nor have I desired the day of sickness. You know what came out of my lips; it was before your face. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:17  Be not a terror to me; you are my refuge in the day of disaster. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:18  Let those be put to shame who persecute me, but let me not be put to shame; let them be dismayed, but let me not be dismayed; bring upon them the day of disaster; destroy them with double destruction! &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:19  Thus said the LORD to me: "Go and stand in the People's Gate, by which the kings of Judah enter and by which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem, &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:20  and say: 'Hear the word of the LORD, you kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, who enter by these gates. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:21  Thus says the LORD: Take care for the sake of your lives, and do not bear a burden on the Sabbath day or bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:22  And do not carry a burden out of your houses on the Sabbath or do any work, but keep the Sabbath day holy, as I commanded your fathers. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:23  Yet they did not listen or incline their ear, but stiffened their neck, that they might not hear and receive instruction. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:24  "'But if you listen to me, declares the LORD, and bring in no burden by the gates of this city on the Sabbath day, but keep the Sabbath day holy and do no work on it, &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:25  then there shall enter by the gates of this city kings and princes who sit on the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they and their officials, the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem. And this city shall be inhabited forever. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:26  And people shall come from the cities of Judah and the places around Jerusalem, from the land of Benjamin, from the Shephelah, from the hill country, and from the Negeb, bringing burnt offerings and sacrifices, grain offerings and frankincense, and bringing thank offerings to the house of the LORD. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 17:27  But if you do not listen to me, to keep the Sabbath day holy, and not to bear a burden and enter by the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day, then I will kindle a fire in its gates, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem and shall not be quenched.'&lt;br /&gt;Father God, you are the master of my heart. Search my heart and tell me if there is any deceitful thing in it. Purify my heart and let me come before your holy throne today to worship you, to praise you and to thank you for all the things you are doing in my life. Allow me Lord to see the blessings the wonderful things that you are doing to me. Show me Father your wonderful deeds that I may thank you and praise you. Father continue to open my eyes and let me focus on the things that are unseen and not on the things of this world. Oh Father I am your adopted child and let me thank you for chosing me as you heir in your kingdom. Do not allow me to put shame in your name but help me live a holy life because you are holy. You are my fortress and my salvation. Jesus you are my cornerstone and my refuge. Restore to me this day my joy of salvation and help me to have contenment and peace in my heart. Help me to discern your will to me this day that I may follow your ways and not my ways my God. Help me to be more intimate with you day by day and transform me into glory to glory. Heavenly Father, give me the power to avoid temptations and deliver me from any evil today.

They are all unfaithful, a mob of traitors. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:3  They are always ready to tell lies; dishonesty instead of truth rules the land. The LORD says, "My people do one evil thing after another and do not acknowledge me as their God." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:4  Everyone must be on guard against their friends, and no one can trust their relatives; for all relatives are as deceitful as Jacob, and everyone slanders their friends. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:5  They all mislead their friends, and no one tells the truth; they have taught their tongues to lie and will not give up their sinning. They do one violent thing after another, and one deceitful act follows another. The LORD says that his people reject him. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:6  (SEE 9:5) &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:7  Because of this the LORD Almighty says, "I will refine my people like metal and put them to the test. My people have done evil--- what else can I do with them? &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:8  Their tongues are like deadly arrows; they always tell lies. Everyone speaks friendly words to their neighbors, but they are really setting a trap for them. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:9  Will I not punish them for these things? Will I not take revenge on a nation like this? I, the LORD, have spoken." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:10  I said, "I will mourn for the mountains and weep for the pastures, because they have dried up, and no one travels through them. The sound of livestock is no longer heard; birds and wild animals have fled and gone." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:11  The LORD says, "I will make Jerusalem a pile of ruins, a place where jackals live; the cities of Judah will become a desert, a place where no one lives." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:12  I asked, " LORD, why is the land devastated and dry as a desert, so that no one travels through it? Who is wise enough to understand this? To whom have you explained it so that they can tell others?" &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:13  The LORD answered, "This has happened because my people have abandoned the teaching that I gave them. They have not obeyed me or done what I told them. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:14  Instead, they have been stubborn and have worshiped the idols of Baal as their ancestors taught them to do. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:15  So then, listen to what I, the LORD Almighty, the God of Israel, will do: I will give my people bitter plants to eat and poison to drink. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:16  I will scatter them among nations that neither they nor their ancestors have heard about, and I will send armies against them until I have completely destroyed them." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:17  The LORD Almighty said, "Think about what is happening! Call for the mourners to come, for the women who sing funeral songs." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:18  The people said, "Tell them to hurry and sing a funeral song for us, until our eyes fill with tears, and our eyelids are wet from crying." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:19  Listen to the sound of crying in Zion: "We are ruined! We are completely disgraced! We must leave our land; our homes have been torn down." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:20  I said, "Listen to the LORD, you women, and pay attention to his words. Teach your daughters how to mourn, and your friends how to sing a funeral song. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:21  Death has come in through our windows and entered our palaces; it has cut down the children in the streets and the young men in the marketplaces. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:22  Dead bodies are scattered everywhere, like piles of manure on the fields, like grain cut and left behind by the reapers, grain that no one gathers. This is what the LORD has told me to say." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:23  The LORD says, "The wise should not boast of their wisdom, nor the strong of their strength, nor the rich of their wealth. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:24  If any want to boast, they should boast that they know and understand me, because my love is constant, and I do what is just and right. These are the things that please me. I, the LORD, have spoken." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:25  The LORD says, "The time is coming when I will punish the people of Egypt, Judah, Edom, Ammon, Moab, and the desert people, who have their hair cut short. All these people are circumcised, but have not kept the covenant it symbolizes. None of these people and none of the people of Israel have kept my covenant." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 9:26  (SEE 9:25) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Father God, thank you for this day. You are a Sovereign God, the Almighty God, the God of the universe and my Father in heaven.Thank you for adopting me as your child through your Son Jesus. Thank you for chosing me Oh Lord that even I am a sinner You still loved me uncondionally. Deliver me from evil today Lord that I ma do things that will please and glorify Your name. Oh Lord You hate those who do not obey You. You hate those are boasting about their own wisdom, strength and richness. Guide me and search my heart Lord and see of there is any deceitful thing. Make my heart right Oh Lord that you may always be pleased in me. Thank you Jesus for forgiving all my sins and allow me to praise and thank you this day for what you have done for me. Thank you for giving eternal life that I put my trust in you every moment of my life. Thank you Jesus thank you that you you have saved me from the dominion of darkness and brought me to light. You are worthy to be praised! In Your name I pray, AMEN.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5172761580667431820-4223389557509069027?l=walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/feeds/4223389557509069027/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/you-hate-those-who-do-not-obey-you.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/4223389557509069027'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/4223389557509069027'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/you-hate-those-who-do-not-obey-you.html' title='You hate those who do not obey YOU'/><author><name>rodge</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18409986493101672062</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SciiLty0UdI/AAAAAAAAAHM/qSNT7hquJqM/S220/IMG_0795b.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5172761580667431820.post-6040584599211493736</id><published>2009-04-11T08:20:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2009-04-11T08:26:39.466+08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='unconditionally'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Lord Jesus'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='deliver form evil'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kings'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='prayer'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Jesus'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='faithful father'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='transformed'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Jesus Christ'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='faithfull'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='comfort'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='put my faith and trust'/><title type='text'>Increase my faith to you</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/Sd_jPA72eUI/AAAAAAAAAJs/5KsOBNGCcCI/s1600-h/324329215rwSWuJ_th.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 100px; height: 75px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/Sd_jPA72eUI/AAAAAAAAAJs/5KsOBNGCcCI/s200/324329215rwSWuJ_th.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5323223131663792450" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:1  "At that time the bones of the kings and of the officials of Judah, as well as the bones of the priests, of the prophets, and of the other people who lived in Jerusalem, will be taken out of their graves. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:2  Instead of being gathered and buried, their bones will be like manure lying on the ground. They will be spread out before the sun, the moon, and the stars, which these people have loved and served, and which they have consulted and worshiped. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:3  And the people of this evil nation who survive, who live in the places where I have scattered them, will prefer to die rather than to go on living. I, the LORD Almighty, have spoken." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:4  The LORD told me to say to his people, "When someone falls down, doesn't he get back up? If someone misses the road, doesn't he turn back? &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:5  Why then, my people, do you turn away from me without ever turning back? You cling to your idols and refuse to return to me. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:6  I listened carefully, but you did not speak the truth. Not one of you has been sorry for your wickedness; not one of you has asked, 'What have I done wrong?' Each of you keep on going your own way, like a horse rushing into battle. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:7  Even storks know when it is time to return; doves, swallows, and thrushes know when it is time to migrate. But, my people, you do not know the laws by which I rule you. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:8  How can you say that you are wise and that you know my laws? Look, the laws have been changed by dishonest scribes. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:9  Your wise men are put to shame; they are confused and trapped. They have rejected my words; what wisdom do they have now? &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:10  So I will give their fields to new owners and their wives to other men. Everyone, great and small, tries to make money dishonestly. Even prophets and priests cheat the people. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:11  They act as if my people's wounds were only scratches. 'All is well,' they say, when all is not well. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:12  My people, were you ashamed because you did these disgusting things? No, you were not ashamed at all; you don't even know how to blush! And so you will fall as others have fallen; when I punish you, that will be the end of you. I, the LORD, have spoken. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:13  "I wanted to gather my people, as a farmer gathers a harvest; but they are like a vine with no grapes, like a fig tree with no figs; even the leaves have withered. Therefore, I have allowed outsiders to take over the land." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:14  "Why are we sitting still?" God's people ask. "Come on, we will run to the fortified cities and die there. The LORD our God has condemned us to die; he has given us poison to drink, because we have sinned against him. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:15  We hoped for peace and a time of healing, but it was no use; terror came instead. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:16  Our enemies are already in the city of Dan; we hear the snorting of their horses. The whole land trembles when their horses neigh. Our enemies have come to destroy our land and everything in it, our city and all its people." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:17  "Watch out!" the LORD says, "I am sending snakes among you, poisonous snakes that cannot be charmed, and they will bite you." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:18  My sorrow cannot be healed; I am sick at heart. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:19  Listen! Throughout the land I hear my people crying out, "Is the LORD no longer in Zion? Is Zion's king no longer there?" The LORD, their king, replies, "Why have you made me angry by worshiping your idols and by bowing down to your useless foreign gods?" &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:20  The people cry out, "The summer is gone, the harvest is over, but we have not been saved." &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:21  My heart has been crushed because my people are crushed; I mourn; I am completely dismayed. &lt;br /&gt;Jer 8:22  Is there no medicine in Gilead? Are there no doctors there? Why, then, have my people not been healed? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Father God, I praised you and thank you this morning for another life you gave me on earth. Thank you for giving me good healthy body. Thank you Father God that you have made this day for me. Lord I praised you because you loved me so much and unconditionally. Help me today that I may not go astray and deliver me from any evil. Oh Father you have reminded me of your anger to those people who continue to commit sin and and I pray that I may continue to abide into your words. I pray that you increase my faith to you, and comfort me Oh Lord. Lord help me that I may continue to renew my mind and be transformed into Christlikeness. Help me not to be conformed by the pattern of this world but help me to be transformed by the renewing of my mind. Father God, I commit everything to you this day in everything that I do this I pray in Jesus name, Amen.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5172761580667431820-6040584599211493736?l=walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/feeds/6040584599211493736/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/increase-my-faith-to-you.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/6040584599211493736'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/6040584599211493736'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/increase-my-faith-to-you.html' title='Increase my faith to you'/><author><name>rodge</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18409986493101672062</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SciiLty0UdI/AAAAAAAAAHM/qSNT7hquJqM/S220/IMG_0795b.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/Sd_jPA72eUI/AAAAAAAAAJs/5KsOBNGCcCI/s72-c/324329215rwSWuJ_th.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5172761580667431820.post-7369231292830861758</id><published>2009-04-10T06:58:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2009-04-10T07:02:46.582+08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Father in heaven'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='child of God'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='heaven'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='heart'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bible'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='prayer'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Jesus'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='godly life'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='finishing well'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='God'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='faithfull'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='eternity'/><title type='text'>Help me to finish well</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/Sd5-OBlvFSI/AAAAAAAAAJk/j2B6Az1nnrM/s1600-h/277321552GsZaGO_ph.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 117px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/Sd5-OBlvFSI/AAAAAAAAAJk/j2B6Az1nnrM/s200/277321552GsZaGO_ph.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5322830589008483618" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:1  The LORD said, "I was ready to answer my people's prayers, but they did not pray. I was ready for them to find me, but they did not even try. The nation did not pray to me, even though I was always ready to answer, 'Here I am; I will help you.' &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:2  I have always been ready to welcome my people, who stubbornly do what is wrong and go their own way. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:3  They shamelessly keep on making me angry. They offer pagan sacrifices at sacred gardens and burn incense on pagan altars. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:4  At night they go to caves and tombs to consult the spirits of the dead. They eat pork and drink broth made from meat offered in pagan sacrifices. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:5  And then they say to others, 'Keep away from us; we are too holy for you to touch!' I cannot stand people like that---my anger against them is like a fire that never goes out. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:6  "I have already decided on their punishment, and their sentence is written down. I will not overlook what they have done, but will repay them &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:7  for their sins and the sins of their ancestors. They have burned incense at pagan hill shrines and spoken evil of me. So I will punish them as their past deeds deserve." &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:8  The LORD says, "No one destroys good grapes; instead, they make wine with them. Neither will I destroy all my people---I will save those who serve me. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:9  I will bless the Israelites who belong to the tribe of Judah, and their descendants will possess my land of mountains. My chosen people, who serve me, will live there. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:10  They will worship me and will lead their sheep and cattle to pasture in the Plain of Sharon in the west and in Trouble Valley in the east. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:11  "But it will be different for you that forsake me, who ignore Zion, my sacred hill, and worship Gad and Meni, the gods of luck and fate. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:12  It will be your fate to die a violent death, because you did not answer when I called you or listen when I spoke. You chose to disobey me and do evil. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:13  And so I tell you that those who worship and obey me will have plenty to eat and drink, but you will be hungry and thirsty. They will be happy, but you will be disgraced. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:14  They will sing for joy, but you will cry with a broken heart. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:15  My chosen people will use your name as a curse. I, the Sovereign LORD, will put you to death. But I will give a new name to those who obey me. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:16  Anyone in the land who asks for a blessing will ask to be blessed by the faithful God. Whoever takes an oath will swear by the name of the faithful God. The troubles of the past will be gone and forgotten." &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:17  The LORD says, "I am making a new earth and new heavens. The events of the past will be completely forgotten. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:18  Be glad and rejoice forever in what I create. The new Jerusalem I make will be full of joy, and her people will be happy. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:19  I myself will be filled with joy because of Jerusalem and her people. There will be no weeping there, no calling for help. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:20  Babies will no longer die in infancy, and all people will live out their life span. Those who live to be a hundred will be considered young. To die before that would be a sign that I had punished them. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:21  People will build houses and get to live in them---they will not be used by someone else. They will plant vineyards and enjoy the wine---it will not be drunk by others. Like trees, my people will live long lives. They will fully enjoy the things that they have worked for. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:22  (SEE 65:21) &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:23  The work they do will be successful, and their children will not meet with disaster. I will bless them and their descendants for all time to come. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:24  Even before they finish praying to me, I will answer their prayers. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 65:25  Wolves and lambs will eat together; lions will eat straw, as cattle do, and snakes will no longer be dangerous. On Zion, my sacred hill, there will be nothing harmful or evil." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My Heavenly Father, I humble myself before your throne this day. Thank you for reminding of the new heaven and new earth that I hope for. Help me to finish well on this race to eternity. Thank you for reminding that there is always consequence on every sin. Thank you Father that You are a merciful God. Oh Father, I pray for comfort today and I surrender to you all my fears. I cast all my fears and worries in life to You that I may live into your comfort. Forgive me my Father to my unfaithfulness but continually changed my heart and make me a person you want me to be. Help me that I may follow your ways day by day, that I may not go astray as like a sheep leaving out the pen. Lord I am your servant and You are Holy. Help me live a holy and godly life that I may always be aware that I am a child of God and that I may always remember that while I am a sinner, Jesus gave His life for me. Help me that I may keep your words in my heart forevermore and will praise you throughout my life. This I pray in the Holy Name of Your Son JESUS, AMEN!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5172761580667431820-7369231292830861758?l=walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/feeds/7369231292830861758/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/help-me-to-finish-well.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/7369231292830861758'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/7369231292830861758'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/help-me-to-finish-well.html' title='Help me to finish well'/><author><name>rodge</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18409986493101672062</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SciiLty0UdI/AAAAAAAAAHM/qSNT7hquJqM/S220/IMG_0795b.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/Sd5-OBlvFSI/AAAAAAAAAJk/j2B6Az1nnrM/s72-c/277321552GsZaGO_ph.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5172761580667431820.post-6016976692899396280</id><published>2009-04-09T08:13:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2009-04-09T08:17:58.621+08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='heart'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='praise'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='wonderful day'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sins'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='world'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='blood of christ'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='secrets of heart'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Jesus'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='everything'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='foundation'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='faithful father'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='strenght'/><title type='text'>You are everything!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/Sd0-B_jpTxI/AAAAAAAAAJc/k547kWLkN3o/s1600-h/283664767QYZzoc_th.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 100px; height: 75px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/Sd0-B_jpTxI/AAAAAAAAAJc/k547kWLkN3o/s200/283664767QYZzoc_th.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5322478538583527186" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:1  Listen to this, people of Israel, you that are descended from Judah: You swear by the name of the LORD and claim to worship the God of Israel--- but you don't mean a word you say. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:2  And yet you are proud to say that you are citizens of the holy city and that you depend on Israel's God, whose name is the LORD Almighty. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:3  The LORD says to Israel, "Long ago I predicted what would take place; then suddenly I made it happen. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:4  I knew that you would prove to be stubborn, as rigid as iron and unyielding as bronze. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:5  And so I predicted your future long ago, announcing events before they took place, to keep you from claiming that your idols and images made them happen. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:6  "All I foretold has now taken place; you have to admit my predictions were right. Now I will tell you of new things to come, events that I did not reveal before. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:7  Only now am I making them happen; nothing like this took place in the past. If it had, you would claim that you knew all about it. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:8  I knew that you couldn't be trusted, that you have always been known as a rebel. That is why you never heard of this at all, why no word of it ever came to your ears. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:9  "In order that people will praise my name, I am holding my anger in check; I am keeping it back and will not destroy you. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:10  I have tested you in the fire of suffering, as silver is refined in a furnace. But I have found that you are worthless. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:11  What I do is done for my own sake--- I will not let my name be dishonored or let anyone else share the glory that should be mine and mine alone." &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:12  The LORD says, "Listen to me, Israel, the people I have called! I am God, the first, the last, the only God! &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:13  My hands made the earth's foundations and spread the heavens out. When I summon earth and sky, they come at once and present themselves. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:14  "Assemble and listen, all of you! None of the gods could predict that the man I have chosen would attack Babylon; he will do what I want him to do. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:15  I am the one who spoke and called him; I led him out and gave him success. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:16  "Now come close to me and hear what I say. From the beginning I have spoken openly and have always made my words come true." (Now the Sovereign LORD has given me his power and sent me.) &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:17  The holy God of Israel, the LORD who saves you, says: "I am the LORD your God, the one who wants to teach you for your own good and direct you in the way you should go. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:18  "If only you had listened to my commands! Then blessings would have flowed for you like a stream that never goes dry. Victory would have come to you like the waves that roll on the shore. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:19  Your descendants would be as numerous as grains of sand, and I would have made sure they were never destroyed." &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:20  Go out from Babylon, go free! Shout the news gladly; make it known everywhere: "The LORD has saved his servant Israel!" &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:21  When the LORD led his people through a hot, dry desert, they did not suffer from thirst. He made water come from a rock for them; he split the rock open, and water flowed out. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 48:22  "There is no safety for sinners," says the LORD. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Father in Heaven, I praised you and I thank you fo this wonderful day that you have made for me. Thank you for being a faithful Father. You who gives me life and strenght and You who created me and knows everything about me even the deepest secrets of my heart, You who had known me even before the foundation of this world, How wonderful are your deeds to me Oh Lord. And as I knew you, You have humbled me and I see my sins.  I am not worthy to praise You but because of the blood of Christ, I am being made worthy and put right to you. Jesus, you are everything! Thank you that you saved me from all my unrigheousness! Thank you for dying on the cross that I may have life. Thank you that your Spirit dwells in me. Oh let me praise and thank you now because you rescued me from the power of darkness. Help me live a life that will be attracting to other unbelievers that you may  use me as your servant and as a living testimony of your goodness to other people, In Jesus Name AMEN!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5172761580667431820-6016976692899396280?l=walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/feeds/6016976692899396280/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/you-are-everything.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/6016976692899396280'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/6016976692899396280'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/you-are-everything.html' title='You are everything!'/><author><name>rodge</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18409986493101672062</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SciiLty0UdI/AAAAAAAAAHM/qSNT7hquJqM/S220/IMG_0795b.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/Sd0-B_jpTxI/AAAAAAAAAJc/k547kWLkN3o/s72-c/283664767QYZzoc_th.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5172761580667431820.post-8720826003299609090</id><published>2009-04-08T11:44:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2009-04-08T11:47:54.474+08:00</updated><title type='text'>A humble heart</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SdweY0Uk_oI/AAAAAAAAAJU/zJcN3kZDE4s/s1600-h/258691410GThxdB_th.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 100px; height: 75px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SdweY0Uk_oI/AAAAAAAAAJU/zJcN3kZDE4s/s200/258691410GThxdB_th.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5322162271355731586" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:1  "But now hear, O Jacob my servant, Israel whom I have chosen! &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:2  Thus says the LORD who made you, who formed you from the womb and will help you: Fear not, O Jacob my servant, Jeshurun whom I have chosen. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:3  For I will pour water on the thirsty land, and streams on the dry ground; I will pour my Spirit upon your offspring, and my blessing on your descendants. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:4  They shall spring up among the grass like willows by flowing streams. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:5  This one will say, 'I am the LORD's,' another will call on the name of Jacob, and another will write on his hand, 'The LORD's,' and name himself by the name of Israel." &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:6  Thus says the LORD, the King of Israel and his Redeemer, the LORD of hosts: "I am the first and I am the last; besides me there is no god. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:7  Who is like me? Let him proclaim it. Let him declare and set it before me, since I appointed an ancient people. Let them declare what is to come, and what will happen. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:8  Fear not, nor be afraid; have I not told you from of old and declared it? And you are my witnesses! Is there a God besides me? There is no Rock; I know not any." &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:9  All who fashion idols are nothing, and the things they delight in do not profit. Their witnesses neither see nor know, that they may be put to shame. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:10  Who fashions a god or casts an idol that is profitable for nothing? &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:11  Behold, all his companions shall be put to shame, and the craftsmen are only human. Let them all assemble, let them stand forth. They shall be terrified; they shall be put to shame together. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:12  The ironsmith takes a cutting tool and works it over the coals. He fashions it with hammers and works it with his strong arm. He becomes hungry, and his strength fails; he drinks no water and is faint. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:13  The carpenter stretches a line; he marks it out with a pencil. He shapes it with planes and marks it with a compass. He shapes it into the figure of a man, with the beauty of a man, to dwell in a house. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:14  He cuts down cedars, or he chooses a cypress tree or an oak and lets it grow strong among the trees of the forest. He plants a cedar and the rain nourishes it. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:15  Then it becomes fuel for a man. He takes a part of it and warms himself; he kindles a fire and bakes bread. Also he makes a god and worships it; he makes it an idol and falls down before it. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:16  Half of it he burns in the fire. Over the half he eats meat; he roasts it and is satisfied. Also he warms himself and says, "Aha, I am warm, I have seen the fire!" &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:17  And the rest of it he makes into a god, his idol, and falls down to it and worships it. He prays to it and says, "Deliver me, for you are my god!" &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:18  They know not, nor do they discern, for he has shut their eyes, so that they cannot see, and their hearts, so that they cannot understand. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:19  No one considers, nor is there knowledge or discernment to say, "Half of it I burned in the fire; I also baked bread on its coals; I roasted meat and have eaten. And shall I make the rest of it an abomination? Shall I fall down before a block of wood?" &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:20  He feeds on ashes; a deluded heart has led him astray, and he cannot deliver himself or say, "Is there not a lie in my right hand?" &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:21  Remember these things, O Jacob, and Israel, for you are my servant; I formed you; you are my servant; O Israel, you will not be forgotten by me. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:22  I have blotted out your transgressions like a cloud and your sins like mist; return to me, for I have redeemed you. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:23  Sing, O heavens, for the LORD has done it; shout, O depths of the earth; break forth into singing, O mountains, O forest, and every tree in it! For the LORD has redeemed Jacob, and will be glorified in Israel. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:24  Thus says the LORD, your Redeemer, who formed you from the womb: "I am the LORD, who made all things, who alone stretched out the heavens, who spread out the earth by myself, &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:25  who frustrates the signs of liars and makes fools of diviners, who turns wise men back and makes their knowledge foolish, &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:26  who confirms the word of his servant and fulfills the counsel of his messengers, who says of Jerusalem, 'She shall be inhabited,' and of the cities of Judah, 'They shall be built, and I will raise up their ruins'; &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:27  who says to the deep, 'Be dry; I will dry up your rivers'; &lt;br /&gt;Isa 44:28  who says of Cyrus, 'He is my shepherd, and he shall fulfill all my purpose'; saying of Jerusalem, 'She shall be built,' and of the temple, 'Your foundation shall be laid.'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God the Father, I praised you this morning and thanking you for all your faithfullness and goodness. I come before you with a humble heart thanking you that despite of my sins, you rescued me and you have forgiven me through your Son Jesus my Savior and my Lord. I thank you Father that you have chosen me to be heir to your kingdom. I praised you because you make things new again and I am a new creation in Christ. Father help me that I may be intimate with you day by day and help me always remember your presence moment by moment. Deliver me this day from evil OH Lord may it be thoughts or what would come from my heart, but purify me that you may not lead me into temptation. I commit to you everything this day Oh God that I may glorify your name. Oh Father teach me to be more dependent on you everyday of my life in Jesus name, AMEN!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5172761580667431820-8720826003299609090?l=walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/feeds/8720826003299609090/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/humble-heart.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/8720826003299609090'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/8720826003299609090'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/humble-heart.html' title='A humble heart'/><author><name>rodge</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18409986493101672062</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SciiLty0UdI/AAAAAAAAAHM/qSNT7hquJqM/S220/IMG_0795b.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SdweY0Uk_oI/AAAAAAAAAJU/zJcN3kZDE4s/s72-c/258691410GThxdB_th.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5172761580667431820.post-3340480258598444649</id><published>2009-04-06T07:10:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2009-04-06T07:13:18.088+08:00</updated><title type='text'>Another life on earth</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/Sdk7B0FsIbI/AAAAAAAAAJM/CRxuPfDzB_Q/s1600-h/432932353LodFNa_th.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 100px; height: 75px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/Sdk7B0FsIbI/AAAAAAAAAJM/CRxuPfDzB_Q/s200/432932353LodFNa_th.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5321349337063367090" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:1  In those days Hezekiah became sick and was at the point of death. And Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came to him, and said to him, "Thus says the LORD: Set your house in order, for you shall die, you shall not recover." &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:2  Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to the LORD, &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:3  and said, "Please, O LORD, remember how I have walked before you in faithfulness and with a whole heart, and have done what is good in your sight." And Hezekiah wept bitterly. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:4  Then the word of the LORD came to Isaiah: &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:5  "Go and say to Hezekiah, Thus says the LORD, the God of David your father: I have heard your prayer; I have seen your tears. Behold, I will add fifteen years to your life. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:6  I will deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria, and will defend this city. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:7  "This shall be the sign to you from the LORD, that the LORD will do this thing that he has promised: &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:8  Behold, I will make the shadow cast by the declining sun on the dial of Ahaz turn back ten steps." So the sun turned back on the dial the ten steps by which it had declined. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:9  A writing of Hezekiah king of Judah, after he had been sick and had recovered from his sickness: &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:10  I said, In the middle of my days I must depart; I am consigned to the gates of Sheol for the rest of my years. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:11  I said, I shall not see the LORD, the LORD in the land of the living; I shall look on man no more among the inhabitants of the world. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:12  My dwelling is plucked up and removed from me like a shepherd's tent; like a weaver I have rolled up my life; he cuts me off from the loom; from day to night you bring me to an end; &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:13  I calmed myself until morning; like a lion he breaks all my bones; from day to night you bring me to an end. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:14  Like a swallow or a crane I chirp; I moan like a dove. My eyes are weary with looking upward. O Lord, I am oppressed; be my pledge of safety! &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:15  What shall I say? For he has spoken to me, and he himself has done it. I walk slowly all my years because of the bitterness of my soul. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:16  O Lord, by these things men live, and in all these is the life of my spirit. Oh restore me to health and make me live! &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:17  Behold, it was for my welfare that I had great bitterness; but in love you have delivered my life from the pit of destruction, for you have cast all my sins behind your back. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:18  For Sheol does not thank you; death does not praise you; those who go down to the pit do not hope for your faithfulness. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:19  The living, the living, he thanks you, as I do this day; the father makes known to the children your faithfulness. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:20  The LORD will save me, and we will play my music on stringed instruments all the days of our lives, at the house of the LORD. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:21  Now Isaiah had said, "Let them take a cake of figs and apply it to the boil, that he may recover." &lt;br /&gt;Isa 38:22  Hezekiah also had said, "What is the sign that I shall go up to the house of the LORD?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Father I thank you once more for another life here on earth that you have given me. Thank you Father for this privelege that I can pray, worship, praise and thank you for all the wonderful things that you have given me. Thank you Father for giving me a good healthy body and thank you for giving me this desire that I can praise and thank you. Lord I commit to you everything this day and the rest of my life. Take control of it and help me to be more intimate with you day by day. Everything what I have comes from you and and I humble myself before your throne this day I owe nothing in this world . Oh Father, thank you for chosing me as your adopted child, that while yet I am a sinner, You sent your only Son Jesus to die for my sins. Now I was made righteous to your sight justified by my faith in Jesus. The righteousness of Jesus was imputed to me and His holiness and that is the only reason why I can come to your holiest throne because of Jesus. How wonderful to medidate these things that makes me praise and worship you this day! Help me that I may grow in faith and be transformed into Christlikeness for the rest of my life and I pray this in the Precious and Mighty name of Your SON JESUS CHRIST, THE NAME ABOVE ALL NAME,AMEN!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5172761580667431820-3340480258598444649?l=walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/feeds/3340480258598444649/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/another-life-on-earth.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/3340480258598444649'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/3340480258598444649'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/another-life-on-earth.html' title='Another life on earth'/><author><name>rodge</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18409986493101672062</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SciiLty0UdI/AAAAAAAAAHM/qSNT7hquJqM/S220/IMG_0795b.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/Sdk7B0FsIbI/AAAAAAAAAJM/CRxuPfDzB_Q/s72-c/432932353LodFNa_th.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5172761580667431820.post-5566561548919581914</id><published>2009-04-04T07:04:00.001+08:00</published><updated>2009-04-04T07:07:47.740+08:00</updated><title type='text'>You are gracious and kind</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SdaWvCUZnSI/AAAAAAAAAJE/w_UzqBuyMdg/s1600-h/2756366597_4f9d419aaa.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 134px; height: 200px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SdaWvCUZnSI/AAAAAAAAAJE/w_UzqBuyMdg/s200/2756366597_4f9d419aaa.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5320605744605273378" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:1  As soon as King Hezekiah heard it, he tore his clothes and covered himself with sackcloth and went into the house of the LORD. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:2  And he sent Eliakim, who was over the household, and Shebna the secretary, and the senior priests, covered with sackcloth, to the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:3  They said to him, "Thus says Hezekiah, 'This day is a day of distress, of rebuke, and of disgrace; children have come to the point of birth, and there is no strength to bring them forth. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:4  It may be that the LORD your God will hear the words of the Rabshakeh, whom his master the king of Assyria has sent to mock the living God, and will rebuke the words that the LORD your God has heard; therefore lift up your prayer for the remnant that is left.'" &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:5  When the servants of King Hezekiah came to Isaiah, &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:6  Isaiah said to them, "Say to your master, 'Thus says the LORD: Do not be afraid because of the words that you have heard, with which the young men of the king of Assyria have reviled me. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:7  Behold, I will put a spirit in him, so that he shall hear a rumor and return to his own land, and I will make him fall by the sword in his own land.'" &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:8  The Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria fighting against Libnah, for he had heard that the king had left Lachish. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:9  Now the king heard concerning Tirhakah king of Cush, "He has set out to fight against you." And when he heard it, he sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying, &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:10  "Thus shall you speak to Hezekiah king of Judah: 'Do not let your God in whom you trust deceive you by promising that Jerusalem will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:11  Behold, you have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands, devoting them to destruction. And shall you be delivered? &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:12  Have the gods of the nations delivered them, the nations that my fathers destroyed, Gozan, Haran, Rezeph, and the people of Eden who were in Telassar? &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:13  Where is the king of Hamath, the king of Arpad, the king of the city of Sepharvaim, the king of Hena, or the king of Ivvah?'" &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:14  Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers, and read it; and Hezekiah went up to the house of the LORD, and spread it before the LORD. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:15  And Hezekiah prayed to the LORD: &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:16  "O LORD of hosts, God of Israel, enthroned above the cherubim, you are the God, you alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth; you have made heaven and earth. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:17  Incline your ear, O LORD, and hear; open your eyes, O LORD, and see; and hear all the words of Sennacherib, which he has sent to mock the living God. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:18  Truly, O LORD, the kings of Assyria have laid waste all the nations and their lands, &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:19  and have cast their gods into the fire. For they were no gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone. Therefore they were destroyed. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:20  So now, O LORD our God, save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you alone are the LORD." &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:21  Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, "Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: Because you have prayed to me concerning Sennacherib king of Assyria, &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:22  this is the word that the LORD has spoken concerning him: "'She despises you, she scorns you-- the virgin daughter of Zion; she wags her head behind you-- the daughter of Jerusalem. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:23  "'Whom have you mocked and reviled? Against whom have you raised your voice and lifted your eyes to the heights? Against the Holy One of Israel! &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:24  By your servants you have mocked the Lord, and you have said, With my many chariots I have gone up the heights of the mountains, to the far recesses of Lebanon, to cut down its tallest cedars, its choicest cypresses, to come to its remotest height, its most fruitful forest. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:25  I dug wells and drank waters, to dry up with the sole of my foot all the streams of Egypt. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:26  "'Have you not heard that I determined it long ago? I planned from days of old what now I bring to pass, that you should make fortified cities crash into heaps of ruins, &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:27  while their inhabitants, shorn of strength, are dismayed and confounded, and have become like plants of the field and like tender grass, like grass on the housetops, blighted before it is grown. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:28  "'I know your sitting down and your going out and coming in, and your raging against me. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:29  Because you have raged against me and your complacency has come to my ears, I will put my hook in your nose and my bit in your mouth, and I will turn you back on the way by which you came.' &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:30  "And this shall be the sign for you: this year you shall eat what grows of itself, and in the second year what springs from that. Then in the third year sow and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat their fruit. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:31  And the surviving remnant of the house of Judah shall again take root downward and bear fruit upward. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:32  For out of Jerusalem shall go a remnant, and out of Mount Zion a band of survivors. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will do this. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:33  "Therefore thus says the LORD concerning the king of Assyria: He shall not come into this city or shoot an arrow there or come before it with a shield or cast up a siege mound against it. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:34  By the way that he came, by the same he shall return, and he shall not come into this city, declares the LORD. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:35  For I will defend this city to save it, for my own sake and for the sake of my servant David." &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:36  And the angel of the LORD went out and struck down a hundred and eighty-five thousand in the camp of the Assyrians. And when people arose early in the morning, behold, these were all dead bodies. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:37  Then Sennacherib king of Assyria departed and returned home and lived at Nineveh. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 37:38  And as he was worshiping in the house of Nisroch his god, Adrammelech and Sharezer, his sons, struck him down with the sword. And after they escaped into the land of Ararat, Esarhaddon his son reigned in his place. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Father God, I praised you today. Thank you for healing my son, thank you for this wonderful day you have made for me. Lord you are graciuos and kind, and you are all powerful, you are almighty and the heavens declare your glory! Lord you hear the prayers of your rightheous people. Father thank you for reminding me by your words that I should always be prayerful when I hear and see unrighteousness. Like King Hezekiah, you heard his prayer because it is according to your will. May you fill me with your Spirit Lord today that I may not sinned against you, may you deliver me from evil that I may glorify Your Name, the name above all names! I prayed all this in the wonderful name of your son Jesus AMEN!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5172761580667431820-5566561548919581914?l=walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/feeds/5566561548919581914/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/you-are-gracious-and-kind_03.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/5566561548919581914'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/5566561548919581914'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/04/you-are-gracious-and-kind_03.html' title='You are gracious and kind'/><author><name>rodge</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18409986493101672062</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SciiLty0UdI/AAAAAAAAAHM/qSNT7hquJqM/S220/IMG_0795b.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SdaWvCUZnSI/AAAAAAAAAJE/w_UzqBuyMdg/s72-c/2756366597_4f9d419aaa.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5172761580667431820.post-7219671693952714695</id><published>2009-04-03T06:51:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2009-04-03T07:00:15.165+08:00</updated><title type='text'>A new body</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SdVDeaiaIJI/AAAAAAAAAI8/B6r22tVSPCo/s1600-h/lake.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SdVDeaiaIJI/AAAAAAAAAI8/B6r22tVSPCo/s200/lake.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5320232724606886034" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isa 25:1  O LORD, you are my God; I will exalt you; I will praise your name, for you have done wonderful things, plans formed of old, faithful and sure. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 25:2  For you have made the city a heap, the fortified city a ruin; the foreigners' palace is a city no more; it will never be rebuilt. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 25:3  Therefore strong peoples will glorify you; cities of ruthless nations will fear you. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 25:4  For you have been a stronghold to the poor, a stronghold to the needy in his distress, a shelter from the storm and a shade from the heat; for the breath of the ruthless is like a storm against a wall, &lt;br /&gt;Isa 25:5  like heat in a dry place. You subdue the noise of the foreigners; as heat by the shade of a cloud, so the song of the ruthless is put down. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 25:6  On this mountain the LORD of hosts will make for all peoples a feast of rich food, a feast of well-aged wine, of rich food full of marrow, of aged wine well refined. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 25:7  And he will swallow up on this mountain the covering that is cast over all peoples, the veil that is spread over all nations. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 25:8  He will swallow up death forever; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from all faces, and the reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth, for the LORD has spoken. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 25:9  It will be said on that day, "Behold, this is our God; we have waited for him, that he might save us. This is the LORD; we have waited for him; let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation." &lt;br /&gt;Isa 25:10  For the hand of the LORD will rest on this mountain, and Moab shall be trampled down in his place, as straw is trampled down in a dunghill. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 25:11  And he will spread out his hands in the midst of it as a swimmer spreads his hands out to swim, but the LORD will lay low his pompous pride together with the skill of his hands. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 25:12  And the high fortifications of his walls he will bring down, lay low, and cast to the ground, to the dust.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh Lord Almighty thank you for giving me this comfort of my salvation for that Day I hope for. You will wipe aways my tears and there will be no more sorrows in life. There will be no more death and I will live forever with you. You have been my fortress and my salvation and I wait on that day when you will give me a new body that would last forever. I praise you dear Lord, through your Son Jesus that I was cleansed and my sins were washed away by His blood. Oh Lord deliver me from evil this day that I may not put shame into Your Name and your Name be glorified. Father reveal yourself to the people I am praying for salvation that they may come to the saving knowledge of your Son Jesus and that they may also receive eternal life. Have mercy on them as you have mercy in me.

Each had six wings: with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 6:3  And one called to another and said: "Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory!" &lt;br /&gt;Isa 6:4  And the foundations of the thresholds shook at the voice of him who called, and the house was filled with smoke. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 6:5  And I said: "Woe is me! For I am lost; for I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts!" &lt;br /&gt;Isa 6:6  Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a burning coal that he had taken with tongs from the altar. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 6:7  And he touched my mouth and said: "Behold, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away, and your sin atoned for." &lt;br /&gt;Isa 6:8  And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?" Then I said, "Here am I! Send me." &lt;br /&gt;Isa 6:9  And he said, "Go, and say to this people: "'Keep on hearing, but do not understand; keep on seeing, but do not perceive.' &lt;br /&gt;Isa 6:10  Make the heart of this people dull, and their ears heavy, and blind their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts, and turn and be healed." &lt;br /&gt;Isa 6:11  Then I said, "How long, O Lord?" And he said: "Until cities lie waste without inhabitant, and houses without people, and the land is a desolate waste, &lt;br /&gt;Isa 6:12  and the LORD removes people far away, and the forsaken places are many in the midst of the land. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 6:13  And though a tenth remain in it, it will be burned again, like a terebinth or an oak, whose stump remains when it is felled." The holy seed is its stump. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Father, You are a Holy God. You are Almighty and the whole earth is full of Your glory! I praised and thank you today because you saved me from all my unrighteousness through Your Son Jesus. Thank you Jesus for saving me from eternal punishment. Like Isaiah, Lord You saved me to serve you. Give me discernement where will you use me. Help me that I may hear your voice. Teach me Oh Lord that I may glorify Your Name, the Name above all name. Help me this day that I will be blessing to others and I will continue to live a Holy life pleasing to you.

For out of Zion shall go the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 2:4  He shall judge between the nations, and shall decide disputes for many peoples; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war anymore. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 2:5  O house of Jacob, come, let us walk in the light of the LORD. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 2:6  For you have rejected your people, the house of Jacob, because they are full of things from the east and of fortune-tellers like the Philistines, and they strike hands with the children of foreigners. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 2:7  Their land is filled with silver and gold, and there is no end to their treasures; their land is filled with horses, and there is no end to their chariots. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 2:8  Their land is filled with idols; they bow down to the work of their hands, to what their own fingers have made. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 2:9  So man is humbled, and each one is brought low-- do not forgive them! &lt;br /&gt;Isa 2:10  Enter into the rock and hide in the dust from before the terror of the LORD, and from the splendor of his majesty. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 2:11  The haughty looks of man shall be brought low, and the lofty pride of men shall be humbled, and the LORD alone will be exalted in that day. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 2:12  For the LORD of hosts has a day against all that is proud and lofty, against all that is lifted up--and it shall be brought low; &lt;br /&gt;Isa 2:13  against all the cedars of Lebanon, lofty and lifted up; and against all the oaks of Bashan; &lt;br /&gt;Isa 2:14  against all the lofty mountains, and against all the uplifted hills; &lt;br /&gt;Isa 2:15  against every high tower, and against every fortified wall; &lt;br /&gt;Isa 2:16  against all the ships of Tarshish, and against all the beautiful craft. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 2:17  And the haughtiness of man shall be humbled, and the lofty pride of men shall be brought low, and the LORD alone will be exalted in that day. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 2:18  And the idols shall utterly pass away. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 2:19  And people shall enter the caves of the rocks and the holes of the ground, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the splendor of his majesty, when he rises to terrify the earth. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 2:20  In that day mankind will cast away their idols of silver and their idols of gold, which they made for themselves to worship, to the moles and to the bats, &lt;br /&gt;Isa 2:21  to enter the caverns of the rocks and the clefts of the cliffs, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the splendor of his majesty, when he rises to terrify the earth. &lt;br /&gt;Isa 2:22  Stop regarding man in whose nostrils is breath, for of what account is he? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Heavenly Father, I bow down to You today, with a humble heart my Lord, listen to me and examine my heart. I thank you for this day you have made for me. Help me Father that I may not sinned against you today. Transform me into to glory to glory that your name may be glorified. Thank you for reminding me that you are against proud people. Thank you Father that you have sent your Son Jesus Christ to die on the cross to save me from all my sins. Thank you for chosing me to be your child. Oh Father, help me to be faithful to you as You are always faithful to me. Thank you for your unconditional love and teach me how to love and have compassion to people. Lord, I pray that you will give me grace and mercy this day that I may live like Christ. Oh Father, apart from Christ I can do nothing.

You don't know what will happen between now and then. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:2  Let other people praise you---even strangers; never do it yourself. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:3  The weight of stone and sand is nothing compared to the trouble that stupidity can cause. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:4  Anger is cruel and destructive, but it is nothing compared to jealousy. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:5  Better to correct someone openly than to let him think you don't care for him at all. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:6  Friends mean well, even when they hurt you. But when an enemy puts his arm around your shoulder---watch out! &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:7  When you are full, you will refuse honey, but when you are hungry, even bitter food tastes sweet. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:8  Anyone away from home is like a bird away from its nest. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:9  Perfume and fragrant oils make you feel happier, but trouble shatters your peace of mind. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:10  Do not forget your friends or your father's friends. If you are in trouble, don't ask a relative for help; a nearby neighbor can help you more than relatives who are far away. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:11  Be wise, my child, and I will be happy; I will have an answer for anyone who criticizes me. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:12  Sensible people will see trouble coming and avoid it, but an unthinking person will walk right into it and regret it later. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:13  Any people stupid enough to promise to be responsible for a stranger's debts deserve to have their own property held to guarantee payment. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:14  You might as well curse your friends as wake them up early in the morning with a loud greeting. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:15  A nagging wife is like water going drip-drip-drip on a rainy day. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:16  How can you keep her quiet? Have you ever tried to stop the wind or ever tried to hold a handful of oil? &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:17  People learn from one another, just as iron sharpens iron. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:18  Take care of a fig tree and you will have figs to eat. Servants who take care of their master will be honored. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:19  It is your own face that you see reflected in the water and it is your own self that you see in your heart. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:20  Human desires are like the world of the dead---there is always room for more. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:21  Fire tests gold and silver; a person's reputation can also be tested. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:22  Even if you beat fools half to death, you still can't beat their foolishness out of them. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:23  Look after your sheep and cattle as carefully as you can, &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:24  because wealth is not permanent. Not even nations last forever. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:25  You cut the hay and then cut the grass on the hillsides while the next crop of hay is growing. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:26  You can make clothes from the wool of your sheep and buy land with the money you get from selling some of your goats. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 27:27  The rest of the goats will provide milk for you and your family, and for your servant women as well. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Father, thank you for reminding me this morning that human desires are like the world of the dead. Lord help me that my desires would be more on heavenly things and I pray that I will always be filled with Your Spirit that I may not go astray. Father give me a divine perspective of life that I may not be deceived by the wordly things. Teach me how to be a good steward of your resources and help me lean to your understanding not on my own. Examine me Oh Lord, that You may lead me to everlasting life. Teach me my Father that I may follow Your ways. Make me a person You want me to that You may use me for Your Kingdom and glory this I pray in the precious Name of Your Son Jesus Christ, AMEN!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5172761580667431820-850555478432905944?l=walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/feeds/850555478432905944/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/03/pro-271-never-boast-about-tomorrow.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/850555478432905944'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5172761580667431820/posts/default/850555478432905944'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://walkingwithjesus-rodge.blogspot.com/2009/03/pro-271-never-boast-about-tomorrow.html' title='Human desires are like the world of the dead'/><author><name>rodge</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18409986493101672062</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SciiLty0UdI/AAAAAAAAAHM/qSNT7hquJqM/S220/IMG_0795b.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/SdAANy1y1YI/AAAAAAAAAIU/h_VmfenrwgA/s72-c/Picture50.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5172761580667431820.post-8552505987984798014</id><published>2009-03-27T06:57:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2009-03-27T07:00:39.612+08:00</updated><title type='text'>I open the doors of my life</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/ScwJD5BD18I/AAAAAAAAAIM/esoGADwgmJQ/s1600-h/Pathway+through+woods-+He+leadeth+me.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AK6ipLGcEJo/ScwJD5BD18I/AAAAAAAAAIM/esoGADwgmJQ/s200/Pathway+through+woods-+He+leadeth+me.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5317635222467237826" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pro 18:1  People who do not get along with others are interested only in themselves; they will disagree with what everyone else knows is right. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 18:2  A fool does not care whether he understands a thing or not; all he wants to do is show how smart he is. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 18:3  Sin and shame go together.

Obey the LORD and nothing evil will happen to you. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:7  When you please the LORD, you can make your enemies into friends. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:8  It is better to have a little, honestly earned, than to have a large income, dishonestly gained. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:9  You may make your plans, but God directs your actions. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:10  The king speaks with divine authority; his decisions are always right. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:11  The LORD wants weights and measures to be honest and every sale to be fair. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:12  Kings cannot tolerate evil, because justice is what makes a government strong. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:13  A king wants to hear the truth and will favor those who speak it. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:14  A wise person will try to keep the king happy; if the king becomes angry, someone may die. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:15  The king's favor is like the clouds that bring rain in the springtime---life is there. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:16  It is better---much better---to have wisdom and knowledge than gold and silver. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:17  Those who are good travel a road that avoids evil; so watch where you are going---it may save your life. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:18  Pride leads to destruction, and arrogance to downfall. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:19  It is better to be humble and stay poor than to be one of the arrogant and get a share of their loot. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:20  Pay attention to what you are taught, and you will be successful; trust in the LORD and you will be happy. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:21  A wise, mature person is known for his understanding. The more pleasant his words, the more persuasive he is. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:22  Wisdom is a fountain of life to the wise, but trying to educate stupid people is a waste of time. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:23  Intelligent people think before they speak; what they say is then more persuasive. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:24  Kind words are like honey---sweet to the taste and good for your health. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:25  What you think is the right road may lead to death. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:26  A laborer's appetite makes him work harder, because he wants to satisfy his hunger. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:27  Evil people look for ways to harm others; even their words burn with evil. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:28  Gossip is spread by wicked people; they stir up trouble and break up friendships. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:29  Violent people deceive their friends and lead them to disaster. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:30  Watch out for people who grin and wink at you; they have thought of something evil. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:31  Long life is the reward of the righteous; gray hair is a glorious crown. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:32  It is better to be patient than powerful. It is better to win control over yourself than over whole cities. &lt;br /&gt;Pro 16:33  People cast lots to learn God's will, but God himself determines the answer. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Father God, I thank you and Praise you today! Thank you for giving me another life and good healthy body. Thank you that I can praise and worship you. Thank you for this day you have made for me. I thank you that I have your words to guide me everyday of my life. Lord, bless my plans in life, I submit to you whatever plans I have in my mind and you will have the last word. Direct my actions Oh Lord in everything I planned and lead me to your everlasting way. Help me to be successful in everything that I do and I pray for wisdom that I may be able to pay my debts.

O LORD, you have examined me, and you know me. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:2  You alone know when I sit down and when I get up. You read my thoughts from far away. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:3  You watch me when I travel and when I rest. You are familiar with all my ways. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:4  Even before there is a single word on my tongue, you know all about it, LORD. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:5  You are all around me-in front of me and in back of me. You lay your hand on me. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:6  Such knowledge is beyond my grasp. It is so high I cannot reach it. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:7  Where can I go to get away from your Spirit? Where can I run to get away from you? &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:8  If I go up to heaven, you are there. If I make my bed in hell, you are there. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:9  If I climb upward on the rays of the morning sun or land on the most distant shore of the sea where the sun sets, &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:10  even there your hand would guide me and your right hand would hold on to me. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:11  If I say, "Let the darkness hide me and let the light around me turn into night," &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:12  even the darkness is not too dark for you. Night is as bright as day. Darkness and light are the same to you. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:13  You alone created my inner being. You knitted me together inside my mother. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:14  I will give thanks to you because I have been so amazingly and miraculously made. Your works are miraculous, and my soul is fully aware of this. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:15  My bones were not hidden from you when I was being made in secret, when I was being skillfully woven in an underground workshop. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:16  Your eyes saw me when I was only a fetus. Every day of my life was recorded in your book before one of them had taken place. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:17  How precious are your thoughts concerning me, O God! How vast in number they are! &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:18  If I try to count them, there would be more of them than there are grains of sand. When I wake up, I am still with you. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:19  I wish that you would kill wicked people, O God, and that bloodthirsty people would leave me alone. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:20  They say wicked things about you. Your enemies misuse your name. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:21  Shouldn't I hate those who hate you, O LORD? Shouldn't I be disgusted with those who attack you? &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:22  I hate them with all my heart. They have become my enemies. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:23  Examine me, O God, and know my mind. Test me, and know my thoughts. &lt;br /&gt;Psa 139:24  See whether I am on an evil path. Then lead me on the everlasting path. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Father I thank and Praise You because you know everything about me. I cannot hide from you because You are always with me. I cannot hide from You because you are like my shadow. You know even my deepest secret because You created me. You know me before the foundations of this world. How great is your love to me that even when I sit down and when I rise up, you know it. You are my Lord and my God therefore I will remember that I am fearfully and wonderfully made by You. Even if somebody tells me I am nothing but I am special to your sight because You love me unconditionally!

I would like to unlearned the the deceitful things I've learned before I came to know Christ. How great is the Lord my God who has given me another life on earth to praise and worship Him. I thank Him because He opened my eyes to know the truth He loves me so much. I might not be faithful to Him always because of my sinful nature but He will always be faithful because He is Holy. Oh how wonderful it is to reflect your goodness that while we are yet sinners, Jesus died on the cross to forgive us all of our sins!
