And Often For Each Other Flows
The Sympathizing Tear.

It Gives Us Inward Pain,
But We Shall Still Be Joined In Heart
And Hope To Meet Again.
This Glorious Hope Revives
Our Courage By The Way,
While Each In Expectation Lives,
And Longs To See The Day.
From Sorrow, Toil And Pain,
And Sin We Shall Be Free;
And Perfect Love And Friendship
Reign
Through All Eternity.
Amen!

God Watches Over Me Jealously
Isaiah_41-10: Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness
“But he that is a hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. The hireling fleeth, because he is a hireling, and careth not for the sheep.”
John 10:12-13 (KJV)
The hireling flees, because he is a hireling and cares not for the sheep.
We live in a world that is self-centred. It seems as if everyone needs to find out how to survive on their own. There are many who are even willing to sacrifice others for their own survival. Notice that when your life is in the hands of a hireling, when troubles come he will abandon you. Why? It is because you don’t belong to him. He is a hireling. Whatever relationship he has with you is formed from the benefit he is getting from looking after you. But when trouble strikes, he will not risk himself for your sake.
This situation is like when you have a caregiver for your children; when disaster strikes, perhaps it is a fire or a flood, the caregiver will momentarily forget your child and think of saving his own life. It is a natural reflex. Even on a plane you are told repeatedly in the case of an emergency to first secure yourself with an oxygen mask before helping a child. But thank God your Good Shepherd, Jesus, knows you belong to Him. So He will never jump ship during the storms in your life.
He is not threatened by the storms of life. The challenges of life do not get to Him. He is with you every step of the way, and you are a priority to Him. He is committed to you, so He will bring you out of every storm. No matter what you are facing, fear not. Put your life in His hands in full confidence that He knows just what to do. You belong to Him, and He watches over you jealously.
Mark 4:35-41
Isaiah 56-58
2 Thessalonians 2
Thank You Jesus!
Revelation_21-4: And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away

God Has Not Brought Me This Far To Abandon Me. He Will Perfect His Work In My Life To His Glory Alone, Amen!
Deuteronomy_31-6: Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
“Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ”. Philippians 1:6 (KJV)
As this new year progresses, I am very confident that the work that the Lord has spoken concerning you will come to pass. There are no “ifs” about it in my spirit. I know in whom I believe and I am fully persuaded of that which He is set to do in your life.
Paul the Apostle, while writing to the church in Philippi, aptly said it in the scripture above; I am confident of the good work the Lord has started in you, and I know He will perfect it. I don’t know what area of your life you need the intervention of God in, but I know that whatever area it might be, God is not only able, He is also willing, and He will surely settle you. God is not a man to lie nor the son of man to repent. His word is so good, it is bankable, because it cannot fail.
Beloved, God’s mind is full of you. He delights in your prosperity. He wants to see you happy and excited, testifying about the faithfulness of God. So don’t allow the situations of the past to keep you bent, cowed, or in despair. Tell yourself that God is working it out and you will see everything turn around for your good.
Beloved, no matter what you are going through, I am confident that God will come through for you. He has not brought you this far to abandon you. He will perfect His work in your life to His glory alone.
Philippians 1:1-6

The Power Of The Love That Keeps Me From Sin
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
“But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.”
Psalm 130:4 (KJV)
Contrary to popular and erroneous religious views, fear does not produce a new creation but faith in the Lord does. Over the years, there’s been the mistaken idea that it is God’s wrath, anger, and judgment on anyone who falls short of His righteous requirements that produces the fear of Him.
To fully understand and apply the Bible, you must know the dispensation that God was dealing with in its different accounts. God dealt with each dispensation differently. You cannot apply His dealings with those under the law as though they were under grace. God deals with the new creation under grace, so you cannot apply the law to it. The new creation enjoys the grace of God.
The text says that it is God’s forgiveness that causes us to fear (revere) Him. It is not His judgment. This sounds contradictory. I thought that you take people for granted when they easily forgive. I thought that it is the man with the cane who is feared and not the one with a heart of love. This situation is true in the natural; but when you understand true love, then you will understand the power of the love that keeps you from sin.
In John 8, a woman caught in adultery received forgiveness and was offered the gift of no condemnation from Jesus. I guarantee you that the woman left feeling deeply relieved, and she likely held the Lord in awe throughout her life. She obviously expected to be stoned to death. I imagine her kneeling with her eyes closed, waiting for the first stone to land on her head, only to hear the Master ask, “Where are thine accusers?” I am sure the woman had died several times in her head because she expected the stoning. But the love of God reached her, and she was totally forgiven. Being delivered from death that she deserved is something that she could not understand. This is grace. Let this grace envelope your life so that you will live in fear (reverence) of God, Amen!
Psalm 130:1-8
Jeremiah 51-52
Hebrews 9

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends

I Mess Up Every Now And Again, But God Still Loves Me
Ephesians_2-8: For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
“Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?”
Romans 2:4 (KJV)
I believe that the time has come for God’s people to truly understand the heart of the Father. Unfortunately, a very misleading picture of God has been painted over the years, leaving the impression that our Father, God, is mad at His children and is watching us very closely to see if we make any mistakes so that He can pass judgment on us. This image has created are a very fearful, distant relationship between God and us. The truth is that we mess up every now and again, so we have a tendency of hiding from God, like Adam did in the garden.
Beloved, while God hates sin, He still loves us so much that He has extended His goodness to us. He will never withdraw His goodness because you have messed up. The scripture tells us that it is His goodness that leads us to repentance. It is not His judgment or His hammer knocking us on the head that leads us to repentance. Look out for His goodness and wrap yourself around Him when you mess up, because He is there to lead you out of your troubles.
Don’t get consumed in your errors; be consumed by His love. I have repeated this teaching over and over again because I realise that it is very hard for people to absorb. Think on it: God loves you in spite of you and is looking forwards to receiving you not when you do right, but right now.
I know that we have been taught over and over again that God’s wrath generates fear in order to keep us from sin. But that doctrine is not in the Bible. All we see in the Bible is His perfect love that casts out fear. Don’t get consumed with the lie of the devil. Stop expecting His wrath. Always expect His goodness. Then His goodness will not only come over you, but it will also overtake you in Jesus’s name.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. —John 1:1
What does “the Word was God” in today’s verse mean? It means “face to face with God.” It describes the most intimate kind of communion and union.
Christ left the intimacy and “face-to-faceness” with God… He left the glory of heaven and the majesty of God’s presence… and came to earth.
Matthew_1-21: And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins
Think about that for a moment. Jesus left heaven to be born in a stable… to walk among men on the dirty streets of Galilee. He lived and died and rose again as a human being.
Isn’t it amazing that God would walk among us? But why would He do this?
He did it because He loves you and me… and He wants you and me to come into a personal relationship with Him. But because we are separated from God by our sin, we can’t know God or experience God or get near to God in His absolute holiness. So God came near. He came down in the person of Jesus Christ and paid the price for our sin by dying on the cross.
So let me ask you, how have you responded to Jesus Christ in your life?
If you’ve accepted Him as your personal Lord and Savior, I praise God that you’ve made the best decision you will ever make. But if you haven’t made this decision, what’s stopping you from accepting God’s free gift of eternal life right now?
God came to earth in the person of Jesus Christ and paid the price for our sin by dying on the cross.
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends
