Clean Heart

Create in Me a Clean Heart

” Be gracious to me, O God, according to Your mercy.
According to Your great compassion blot out my transgressions.
 Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin.
 For I know my transgressions and my sin is ever before me.
 Against You, You only, have I sinned, and done what is evil in Your sight,
so that You are just when You speak, and blameless when You judge.
 Behold, I was born in iniquity and in sin when my mother conceived me.
 Surely You desire truth in the inner being. Make me know wisdom inwardly.

 Cleanse me with hyssop and I will be clean. Wash me, and I will be whiter than snow. Let me hear joy and gladness, so the bones You crushed may rejoice.
 Hide Your face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities.

Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.

 Do not cast me from Your presence— take not Your Ruach ha-Kodesh from me.
Restore to me the joy of Your salvation and sustain me with a willing spirit.
Then will I teach transgressors Your ways and sinners will return to You.                                

Deliver me from bloodguilt, O God— God of my salvation.
Then my tongue will sing for joy of Your righteousness.
 O Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will declare Your praise. Psalm 51: 3-17 (TLV) ( Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit)

Attitudes for Life

Attitudes for Life

When Yeshua (Christ Jesus) saw the crowds, He went up on the mountain and sat down, and began to teach them, saying,

 “Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
 “Blessed are those who mourn,
for they shall be comforted.
 “Blessed are the meek,
for they shall inherit the earth.
 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they shall be satisfied.
 “Blessed are the merciful,
for they shall be shown mercy.
 “Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they shall see God.
 “Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they shall be called sons of God.
 “Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

 “Blessed are you when people revile you and persecute you and say all kinds of evil against you falsely, on account of Me.

 Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great! For in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.”

You are Called to Be Salt and Light

 “You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt should lose its flavor, how shall it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.

 “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.  Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a basket. Instead, they put it on a lampstand so it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men so they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:1-16 (TLV)

 “You did not choose Me, but I chose you. I selected you so that you would go and produce fruit, and your fruit would remain. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in My name. “These things I command you, so that you may love one another.” John 15:16-17 (TLV)

My prayer is the by grace and mercy we are able to Walk and Love as Christ Jesus loving people but clearly hating the Sin, and being able to separate the two and offer His redemption and healing to those who would receive it.

Morning Line: Markers

Morning Line: Markers

 

”Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all your benefits” Psalm 103:2

 

Markers of healing, victory, and pray are important to remind you of God’s faithfulness in your life’s storms.

 

Psalm 46 states, God is your refuge peace, and strength a very present help. Let God direct you to the memory of His faithfulness placing a marker in your mind and visit it often. It secures you in your faith and His Love.

Hebrews 11:6 ” without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that comes to God must believe that he is and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”

God’s Word is specific, God is touched by our faith pleasing Him when you Trust Him to show you the best path for you to take. Seek to know Him, spirit to spirit, bringing you wisdom and knowledge for the day at hand and your road ahead.

Take hold of this and boldly proclaim it:

“ But in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.  For I am convinced that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers,  nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Messiah Yeshua  (Christ Jesus) our Lord. Romans 8:37-39 (TLV)

Unshakable Word

Unshakable

”…Forever, O Lord, your Word stands firm in heaven. Your faithfulness extends to every generation, like the earth you created; it endures by your decree, for everything serves your plans.

I would have despaired and perished unless your laws had been my deepest delight. I will never lay aside your laws, for you have used them to restore my joy and health.I am yours! Save me! For I have tried to live according to your desires. Though the wicked hide along the way to kill me, I will quietly keep my mind upon your promises.

Nothing is perfect except your words. Oh, how I love them. I think about them all day long.  They make me wiser than my enemies because they are my constant guide…”Psalm 119:89-98 (TLB)

“ For surely I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans for your welfare and not for harm, to give you a future with hope.  Then when you call upon me and come and pray to me, I will hear you.”Jeremiah 29:11-12 (NRSVCE)

“The Lord will open for you his rich storehouse, the heavens, to give the rain of your land in its season and to bless all your undertakings. You will lend to many nations, but you will not borrow.  The Lord will make you the head, and not the tail; you shall be only at the top, and not at the bottom—if you obey the commandments of the Lord your God, which I am commanding you today, by diligently observing them,  and if you do not turn aside from any of the words that I am commanding you today, either to the right or to the left, following other gods to serve them.

Morning Line: Sowing and Reaping

Morning Line: Sowing and Reaping

What and Where are you sowing?

Remember what you make happen for others always has a way of coming back around. It’s God’s way of saying thanks for helping your brothers and sisters.

“There is that scatters, and yet increases; there is that withholds more than is needed, but it ends in poverty” Proverbs 11:24

Your life can hold more than you can ever imagine, but it is for you to share, encourage, mentor, and give others a leg-up. God assigned you to walk hand in hand with others to make a difference in their life. Don’t miss your opportunities as they come.

Big or small they make an impact; Spiritually, Physically, Mentally, Emotionally, Relationship, and Financially, it all adds up. Remember the Mustard Seed becomes a tree of strength and shelter.

Dare To Care!

 “Do not judge, and you will not be judged; do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven;  give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap; for the measure you give will be the measure you get back.” Luke 6:37-38 (NRSVCE) 

I pray each of you has the opportunity to give someone a leg up today and you are open to the Holy Spirit leading you to exactly where and how to sow your seeds.

Whatever you do!

Whatever you do!

 

Thoughts to Ponder: Pastor Phil Larson

 

The ugliness and insult of the opening ceremonies will not rob me of enjoying the athletic competition. I’m tough, I worked in vile profit-mongering corporate America for decades and survived with my soul intact.

But if someone says to you, “This has been offered in sacrifice,” then do not eat it, for the sake of the one who informed you, and for the sake of conscience— I do not mean your conscience, but his. For why should my liberty be determined by someone else’s conscience? If I partake with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of that for which I give thanks? So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. Give no offense to Jews or to Greeks or to the church of God, just as I try to please everyone in everything I do, not seeking my own advantage, but that of many, that they may be saved.
1 Cor. 10:28-33 ESV

From his throne in heaven the Lord laughs and mocks their feeble plans.
Psalm 2:4 GNT

Stand confident in faith He is with you all the time all the way.

Surrounded, Covered, Protected

Surrounded, Covered. Protected

“ Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses [who by faith have testified to the truth of God’s absolute faithfulness], stripping off every unnecessary weight and the sin which so easily and cleverly entangles us, let us run with endurance and active persistence the race that is set before us,  [looking away from all that will distract us and] focusing our eyes on Jesus, who is the Author and Perfecter of faith [the first incentive for our belief and the One who brings our faith to maturity], who for the joy [of accomplishing the goal] set before Him endured the cross, disregarding the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God [revealing His deity, His authority, and the completion of His work].

Just consider and meditate on Him who endured from sinners such bitter hostility against Himself [consider it all in comparison with your trials], so that you will not grow weary and lose heart. Hebrews 12:1-3 (AMP)

 ‘Do not fear [anything], for I am with you; Do not be afraid, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you, be assured I will help you;
I will certainly take hold of you with My righteous right hand [a hand of justice, of power, of victory, of salvation].’ Isaiah 41:10 (AMP

 Let us not grow weary or become discouraged in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap if we do not give in. So then, while we [as individual believers] have the opportunity, let us do good to all people [not only being helpful, but also doing that which promotes their spiritual well-being], and especially [be a blessing] to those of the household of faith (born-again believers). Galatians 6:9-10 (AMP)

I pray,[that you may come] to know [practically, through personal experience] the love of Christ which far surpasses [mere] knowledge [without experience], that you may be filled up [throughout your being] to all the fullness of God [so that you may have the richest experience of God’s presence in your lives, completely filled and flooded with God Himself]. Ephesians 3:19 (AMP)

God Bless

Morning Line: Take Command

Morning Line: Take Command!

 

Romans 8:31”..If God be for us, who can be against us?”

 

Jesus Christ instructed us to speak His word in faith to our mountain (problem). He didn’t pray for healing He took command of the promises of God in Him, for receiving healing, solutions, finances, peace, comfort, etc. If you have accepted Jesus as Lord you’ve got the power and authority given to you by Christ Jesus at work in you to be an overcomer. Stand boldly claim your healing and speak boldly in life-changing mountain-moving faith.

” …..For truly I tell you, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.” Matthew 17:20  (NRSVCE)

”From the fruit of the mouth, one’s stomach is satisfied;  the yield of the lips brings satisfaction.
 Death and life are in the power of the tongue,  and those who love it will eat its fruits”Proverbs 18:20-21 (NRSVCE)

Friend, If your sails have been loose flapping the wind, I encourage you to grab hold of them and anchor them. Stand up boldly, faithfully believing “Adonai” your Lord is always with you. Believe set your sails the wind is in your favor.

Take command.

Take Back Control

PERMAnently take back control of your future

Coaching for regular folks. Community and Business Activist, Team and Network Development, Community Pastor

In my recent workbook Strong Spiritual Mind Emotion, I did not have space enough to cover all key topics.

Positive psychology takes you through the countryside of pleasure and gratification, up into the high country of strength and virtue, and finally to the peaks of lasting fulfillment, meaning and purpose.

Seligman, 2002 Get a lot more in his book Flourish

This week, take a few moments to review your Positive Emotion habits.

The media, politics, religion, and wars are certainly not giving out many positive vibes. Yes, a balanced religion promotes positivity alongside correction of negatives. So does a balanced media and politic. I’m not sure wars can distribute much positivity, although when they ultimately provide security and protection, they can.

So what are your positive emotion habits?

For my question of the week, I asked, “What one thing that costs nothing makes you happy?”

Now happiness usually has a time limitation of effect. Continued application of positive happiness brings an underlying sense of joy and develops our resiliency against the negatives.

Again, what are your positive emotion habits?

Time with family?

Water sports?

Nature walks?

Golf?

Devotional reading ?

Meditation and mindfulness?

Exercise?

Positive affirmations?

Fishing?

Coffee shop with friends?

Notice, I exempt such typical items liking alcohol or marijuana or pornography. Yes those have become quite typical negative emotion builders that disguise as happiness. They don’t build, they assuage or mask and defer good emotions along with bad.

What is it that brings you happiness that costs you nothing and builds your joy long term?

That is a bigger question.

Sometimes, we derive happiness from accomplishment at our work or a sport. But what makes you happy even when you fail to hit the mark of accomplishment? That is something that feeds the soul in good times and bad.

Here’s the quick 3 minute video that popped up on the Meaningful Momentand provoked me this morning.
