Reflections of you in the pool with Jesus.

Staying quiet in the presence of the Lord. Placing our mind on Jesus and keeping our focus only on Him.

In the Psalm 23:2, it states that He leads me beside still waters.

I love this, that He makes me lie down in green pastures. 

He makes certain that we sheep have a supply of good food (His word) before He leads us to the still waters. Where our, mind, will and emotions will be restored.

In the still waters it is like a mirror, you can see yourself clearly, and since Jesus is the one who led you there, you can see His reflection with you.

These are quiet times with the Lord.  No words are needed.  Words are like pebbles in the water, it will cause a ripple effect and the reflection would be distorted.

The Lord wants to minister to us in silence. When there are no distractions with words.
He wants to have a quiet time where He can impart things to us that we would never receive if we started talking.
When our mind would be engaged with what we want to say, it would not only be on Jesus.

He wants to look deep in our soul, to have an intimate time with us.

We seem to have time for all sorts of activity, yet this is the most important of our day.
This isn't a time to pray, He already knows what is on your heart and what we need.
Psalm 139:4
For there is not a word on my tongue, But behold, O Lord, you know it all together.

Matthew 6:7-8
And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do.  For they think that they will be heard for their many words.  Therefore do not be like them.  For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him.

 He wants a quiet time with us.

When we are in His presence we want to say Praise you Lord, but He wants us to stay still and be quiet, so He can impart something new and fresh to us.

Isaiah 30:15
"In returning and rest you shall be saved; In quietness and confidence shall be your strength."

Do you have a place where you can go and just sit quietly in the presence of the Lord Jesus. Shutting out every distraction, where there is just you and Jesus?

It is so refreshing to just sit at His feet and listen for His voice. He is constantly speaking, but we get so busy with other things, we neglect to hear Him.

Beloved, if you are in need of a fresh touch from the Lord, sit at His feet quietly,
Let him heal your soul of anything that is keeping you from a deeper walk with Him.

Isaiah 40:29-31
He gives power to the weak, And those who have no might He increases strength.
Even the youths shall faint and be weary, And young men shall utterly fall,
But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength,  They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.

Beloved, wait in the presence of the Lord and receive all He has for you.

God bless your day
Jesus loves you

Love in Jesus
Joy

DOES IT MATTER WHO PREACHES THE GOSPEL, AS LONG AS THE GOSPEL IS PREACHED?

 G O S P E L= GOD'S OWN SON PROVIDED ETERNAL LIFE. This is the true gospel,  the good news!! What are we to conclude about this matter? Paul makes it clear, that whoever preaches Christ and the gospel, it doesn't matter, as long as the Gospel gets preached. Philippians 1:15-16 Some indeed preach Christ even from envy and strife, and some also from goodwill.  The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my chains, but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the Gospel. What then? Only that in everyway, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is preached; and in this I rejoice, yes and will rejoice. Beloved, there are all kinds of preachers out there, but their motives are not our business. Those that are preaching for all the wrong reasons, could later repent, and start preaching for the right reasons.  We have seen this through the years. We are to listen for the truth of God's word. I h...

JESUS IS NOT A GLORIFIED BUTLER, HE IS THE SON OF GOD.

SOME BELIEVERS THINK THAT JESUS IS A GLORIFIED BUTLER.  Whatever they ask for they will have, whether it is right or wrong. JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD!!  YOU ARE NOT TO COMMAND HIM,  YOU ARE TO ASK HIM, HONOR HIM, AND RESPECT HIM AND HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.  I have heard some believers young in their faith and understanding, say that they have prayed for such a thing and God will give it to them. They are trusting in their faith, not their faith in God. (Works of the flesh, which is witchcraft) Witchcraft is attempting to manipulate your environment or circumstances. (SELF) Works of the flesh. Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. (1Samuel 15:23) Galatians 5;19-20 NOW THE WORKS OF THE FLESH ARE EVIDENT, WHICH ARE: Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions , jealousies, outburst of wrath , selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, and revelries, ...

GOD'S LOVE LETTER TO HIS CHILDREN. PART 2

Read God's word and see how many times He chose to bless and not curse His people. God knows our every move and cares that we understand there is obedience to His word that will help us. God's word is a light unto our path.  Psalms 119:104-105 Through Your precepts I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way. Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light to my path. God's word is rest for the weary, when we have not obeyed the word of God, we will become weary, anxious, and fearful, when we choose to do our own thing instead of what God tells us to do. Jesus loves us too much to leave us where He found us.  Praise God that he did find us searching for truth. Thy word is truth and Jesus is that word. So yes, there will be reminders for our spiritual growth that is needed. Will you squirm and try to fight the Holy Spirit? Yes, because the flesh always fights the Holy Spirit. Galatians 5:17 For the flesh lust against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and th...
