The Hope of Faith: Part 2

Hope is the energy/driver/or anchor of faith; otherwise our faith would be hopeless.

[Pastor]

When God speaks into time (that is not yet), He speaks out from eternity (to bring Hope to pass). For God/our Abba/ Father calls those things “which be not” as though they (already) were ...declaring the end from the beginning. [Pastor; Romans 4:17; Isaiah 46:9-10]

The Hope of God is embedded in the Judgment of creation; causing “The earnest expectation of (creation);” standing on tippy toes, with an outstretched neck; to wait for “the manifestation of the sons” (and daughters) “of God;” to speak to mountains/open blind eyes/heal the sick, even raise the dead; although (creation) has been made subject to vanity (futility), not through some intentional fault on it's part; but by reason of the will of Him Who hath subjected the same in Hope ...until the fullness of time. [Pastor; Romans 8:19-20] Selah.

MY HOPE IS BUILT ON NOTHING LESS

THAN JESUS' BLOOD AND RIGHTEOUSNESS.

I DARE NOT TRUST THE SWEETEST FRAME,

BUT WHOLLY LEAN ON JESUS' NAME.

ON CHRIST THE SOLID ROCK I STAND,

ALL OTHER GROUND IS SINKING SAND

ALL OTHER GROUND IS SINKING SAND.

The Flesh Of Jesus

From “Let Us make man in Our image,” [Genesis 1:26] to “The Word was made flesh,” [John 1:14] the incarnation (the embodiment of deity) has been a much debated issue.

There are those who would refute that The Almighty God connected with His creation, by taking on flesh; saying (their) (g)od did not have a (s)on. But our God said; through His Epistle (letter) of Hebrews, “Forasmuch then as the children (of God) are partakers of flesh and blood, (Jesus) Himself likewise took part of the same (aka, the Word was made flesh); that through death He might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil” [Pastor; Heb 2:14]

“For verily (truly) He (Jesus) did not take on Him(self) the nature of angels; but He took on Him(self) the seed of Abraham” ...becoming, by earthly lineage, the son of Abraham/the son of David, and The Son of God...aka, “The Son of man.” That's the connection.

[Hebrews 2:16; Matthew 1:1; Luke 1:35; Matt 16:13]

 

ThenSingsMySoul:

 

EMMANUEL, EMMANUEL,

(YOUR) NAME IS CALLED, EMMANUEL.

(YOU'RE) GOD WITH US,

REVEALED IN US,

(YOUR) NAME IS CALLED EMMANUEL!

Where Do I (We) Begin?

Just another kingdom commercial, about hearing and responding to the “engrafted Word;” not to drown you/test you, or try you, but for a testimony of The Lord's faithfulness.]

[Pastor; James 1:21]

 When The Lord reappeared unto Moses, in mount Sinai; to renew His covenant (with Israel), He passed by Moses and proclaimed His Name, saying

“The Lord ...God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness (aka 'grace') and truth, keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin ...”

[Exodus 34:6-7]

From the beginning, His covenant, and testimony is “sure” to whomsoever will call upon Him, in faith; for He is a rewarder of them  that diligently seek Him (or respond to His call).

[Psalms 19:7; Hebrews 11:6]

When we consider that The Lord (The “I AM”) is the inter-dimensional connection between time and eternity (aka 'eternal Life'); then, we can conclude that our first response should begin unto Him.

LORD I NEED YOU, O, I NEED YOU;

EVERY HOUR I NEED YOU.

(YOU'RE) MY ONE DEFENSE,

MY RIGHTEOUSNESS

OH GOD, HOW I NEED YOU.
