Hungry?

a heavenly download…

HUNGRY ??? … but for what ???

Psalm 42: 1-2

For the director of music. A maskil[ of the Sons of Korah.

As the deer pants for streams of water  so my soul pants for you, my God.
My soul thirsts for God, for the living God.     When can I go and meet with God?

Through the comparisons of the thirst and panting the Psalmist shows his fervent desire to serve God in his temple.

Matthew 5 : 6

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.

Hunger and thirst is a basic natural desire. Without food and water your natural body cannot survive. But we as Christians… followers of Christ… not just a knowing that HE exists, we should develop another basic desire – the DESIRE to SERVE HIM.

And live for Jesus Christ. Son of the living GOD. Our Savior – our Redeemer – our light – our love – our all !!!!

I believe we all have needs and deep desires in our life’s – but to whom are we running for our fulfillment? – the bible says in

Psalm 37 : 4

Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.

I sing you into my loving arms…

Song for Guitar …

I am your God,
I am the Word,
Come to me, I forgive you!

take time my friend… and read God’s Word, the Bible … see

Matthew 11: 28 to 30 and Luke 15 : 12-32

a call for repentance,

daily!

Are you landed on your life where the “biblical pigs”are? Do you just function in oppression, lack? Do you suffer misery and feel dirty? Are you ashamed for the many mistakes that you’ve already done?

Then come to your senses! Remember, there is a God, a Heavenly Father who is waiting with open arms for you. Where he is, is love, acceptance, no guilt, he will never accuse you because forgiveness comes. The bitterness and sadness turns into joy and you have again power … power to serve your God, to love your neighbour and yourself, to forgive and love your spouse.

PRAYER:
Lord – Give us the grace of repentance.
Let us recognize and do your will,
give us a willingness to discipline,
we ask you to give us the power to defeat and overcome addictions and compulsions;
so that we can walk in your ways. Teach us to counter evil with good!
Thank you for your goodness and mercy! Thank you, thank you and thank you again … in Jesus’ name – AMEN

Heavenly healing

Do you believe that Jesus died for you so you can have eternal life, that he took away your sins, the punishment of it, that he paid the price so you can enter into a divine relationship with the father, abba… do you believe that when you confess him as Lord you are saved?… do you believe that he loves you and …. and what is very important…

do you believe that HE took your sickness away?… that he wants to heal you perfectly, not only your body, but also your mind and the condition of your heart?… well most of us say a spontaneous yes… I do, because we have heard it many times in sermons, we have seen miracle services, we read about it in the bible, we want to believe, but it seems we cannot receive personally… we wish, we think, we feel… may be we go through years of disappointments and finally we are hopeless… run from one doctor to the other, one more pill, one more side effect etc.

let me tell you my friend in Jesus… medicine and doctors are good ways to receive healing, but sometimes this does not really help. Often we just kill the symptoms. Pain relieve !!! for our body, but what when your soul and heart and mind is wounded, broken etc. – than we run to psychologists or when we are very devotional we go to  ministers and pastors.  Sometimes this can help, but what if this is not the way for your relieve, healing and lack of love either…

These few words are meant to encourage you again… JESUS your healer and your great physician, JESUS the lover of your soul, JESUS the answer for your troubles and despair.

I believe that the channel to receive a personal healing, a miracle etc. is FAITH, well most of us think we have no faith, but this is a lie We just need to activate it again. But how?  FAITH has nothing to do with our thoughts, our emotions and bad experiences, it has a lot to do what we speak, the words we say are powerful, life and death is in the power of the tongue. When we start to discipline our mouth with good words about the promises of a good GOD and healing scriptures and stop the negative we will see results. For most of us this is not easy… but the only way to receive. It is a decision.

J E S U S

yes he loves you, yes he wants to heal you, yes he draws you into his loving arms… RUN to HIM… seek HIM, pray to HIM, spent time in the word again!… he will lead you out of your misery…

Here a link to a song on YouTube which I like:

heal me – Jason Upton

Prayer: Father in Jesus name, I want to thank you for encouraging me to believe in your goodness and love for me and my family again. Thank you, that your son Jesus died for my sicknesses and sins. Thank you for forgiving my sins, addiction, negative words, wrong eating habits etc. I want to adjust my life style under your leadership again. I want to start my faith journey today. Help me through the presence of your Holy Spirit in my life. Grant me grace to do my part. Thank you so much for strength to do your will. Yes father, one more time I want to say, your will be done in me and around me… your will is good for me!

 

 

 

 

 

 

what does the Bible say about…

Tattoo…
Signs and pictures on the body …
we know, from the Bible, that God’s Word is the TRUTH … the opinions of individuals are as different as man himself, and may change with life situations, but God’s word, the Bible, will last forever, for He does not change. We can rely on that. His word says:in Leviticus 19 verse 28  You shall not make any cuts on your body [in mourning] for the dead, nor make any tattoo marks on yourselves; I am the Lord. AMP
28 Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the Lord. King James Version

28 “‘Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves. I am the Lord. NIV

 

In ancient times this was part of pagan and superstitious rituals to worship other gods …

But we as Christians want to worship the saints of Israel, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob … the God of the Bible and Jesus alone … Worship is not only beautiful songs to sing for his glory, but the true worshippers will worship Him in spirit and TRUTH … and truth is  his word. There are many Scriptures that support this verse above … and then there is this version … yes that’s all Old Testament and we live in the New Covenant, founded on grace and the blood of Jesus.

But consider what the Bible says about this:

2 Timothy 3 verses 16 and 17 

For all Scripture, given by God, is good for doctrine, for correction, for improvement, for education in righteousness, that the man of God is perfect, sent to all good works … 

God’s purpose is always based on love and grace and mercy … when he shows things, then always to forgive and protect … never will Jesus lead you to condemnation … but he wants us to increase in knowledge, wants to forgive us and that we are able to repent.

Prayer:

Lord, please, I did not know better that tattoos are not in your will, even if they take your name or other holy pictures and scriptures out of the word … please forgive me and wash me in your blood. 

Please do not do it any more !!!

In love … Sabine

song… and prayer

A song on YouTube which I like:

https://youtu.be/Vkv9Z_Ye7d8

what is your greatest thing or goal in your life?… is it just all about money, family, house, carrier etc. the great I AM is God Almighty and not the little I AM we want to be… we are allowed to die to self.

this is a beautiful song and a prayer as well… to know him takes time… to love HIM… keep his commandments and love those in need of Jesus the Messiah… not just a nice feeling but a decision as well… to serve HIM… you have to die to yourself and follow HIM with all your strength even when HE allows you to suffer for the Gospel… Holy Spirit please help us to fulfil this… we need extra Grace… thank you ABBA father for sending you son for us… thank you Jesus for dying for us… thank you holy Spirit for helping us…

please take time to listen to this song above… try to find a quite place where you can enjoy his presence…

Jesus is a fun maker

I am a fun maker says the Lord

I was laughing a lot with my disciples …

 

Nehemiah 8:10 Amplified Bible (AMP)

10 Then Ezra said to them, “Go [your way], eat the rich festival food, drink the sweet drink, and send portions to him for whom nothing is prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. And do not be worried, for the joy of the Lord is your strength and your stronghold.”

Isaiah 29:19  New International Version (NIV)

19 Once more the humble will rejoice in the Lord;
    the needy will rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.

Have fun my brother and sister in the Lord… do not let the worries and fear of lack rob you from his presence and joy… he loves you and wants you to enjoy your life with him… adjust to his ways… and be blessed

Finances and the bible…

open heaven and the bible

Shalom .... believe this is a balanced teaching about finances... enjoy and be blessed 

Today we want to turn to an important topic. Money and what the Bible says, God's word for it. 
What is right, what is wrong, what attitude do we have or better should we have, and how can we serve the Lord and His kingdom and thereby provide ourselves with the platform for God's blessing. 
 I studied a few days ago, the little book by Joyce Meyer "Orderly Finance" and would like to pass on some passages.

MONEY is nothing BAD ... - the love of money is bad!

What do you think the money would say if it could talk? How about that:

"I'm depressed and sad because I'm tired of people abusing me, using me for wrong purposes, arguing, stealing, lying, cheating, and committing crimes because of me. For most divorces, I get the blame. 
I'm tired of fighting greed all the time. You hoard and waste me. People think I stand for their safety - but I do not do that at all. So they pretend I am God. But I'm certainly not. 
I just wanted people to know how much good they can do to me, if only they were right with me and how blessed their lives could be.


I believe God demands that we be good stewards of our financial resources. We have to make sure that the money does not push God out of our lives. At any time, he must be our first priority. 
I think God is paying attention to how we use our money. What we definitely need to keep in mind is ... that the hand of the diligent one makes you rich (Proverbs 10: 4). 
Many people in our day have the feeling that they are entitled to certain things. They do not see that they should wait to earn them.
Money has a lot of power and can pull people in the wrong direction. It does mean, however, that we must strive to never take a wrong attitude or allow money to dominate us. 
Never use people to get money or things, but be determined to use money for the blessing of others. Rich people can do a lot of good for society if they want to.
The law of gradual growth

As long as the earth lasts, sowing and harvesting, frost and heat, summer and winter, day and night should not stop (Genesis 8:22).

He who sows on his flesh (lower instincts, sensuality) will reap corruption from the flesh ... (Galatians 6, 8)

Give, and it will be given to you: a good, firm, shaken, and full measure will be poured into your lap. For with the same measure with which you measure (if you do good to others), you will also be forgiven. (Luke 6, 38)

Does God want people to be well? ...

In Psalm 118: 25 we read a courageous prayer of the psalmist, in which he exclaims that the Lord may now send him wealth. That sounds like he needed a breakthrough quickly. 
Have you ever prayed like this? In Psalm 35:27, the Bible says that God enjoys the well-being of his people.


wait with a good attitude

    be never greedy, do not over-train your thinking on money or material possessions (1 Timothy 3, 8)
    Do not Love the World or Things in the World (1 John 2:15)
    we must never by questionable methods come to money or material goods. Rather, we should work hard and learn to deal well with what we have. (1 Timothy 3, 3)
    respect the money, never waste it (John 6:12)
    be grateful for what you have while waiting for what they want (Philippines 4, 6)
    trust God and do not let them unsettle you if things do not happen when you want (Proverbs 3: 5)
    Never be jealous or envy of what someone else has (Proverbs 14, 30)

The good, God-pleasing attitude while you wait, shows that you are ready to move forward.

How we should consider money ...

We should consider money as a tool or equipment to be a blessing to others. Riches Do not Provide Real Security (Proverbs 11: 4) Even as our wealth increases, 
it is unwise to focus on it (Psalm 62:11). In effect, money can not convey true happiness unless we serve God with it. It gives me great pleasure to help relieve the pain of other people.
Paul told the Ephesians that they should work with their own hands so that they had enough to give to others, see Ephesians 4:28.

According to the Bible, GIVING is more blessed than TAKING. So while they ask God to help you prosper, you should also be careful to learn to become a committed donor.
How does God relate to people who are in debt? ...

I do not think that having debts is a sin that causes one to lose salvation. But it's not the smartest lifestyle either. 
Those who really want financial security should force themselves to save thirty percent of their available funds. Whenever you lend something, you are already spending the fortune of tomorrow today. - 
But what will happen tomorrow? Only responsible use of credit cards ensures that they do not get you in trouble. That means they should never buy something they can not pay for. 
Greed is the deepest root of many debts. We have to be patient enough to wait for things - then we will be able to enjoy them all the more. Credit cards allow people to fulfil their wishes on the spot, 
but I do not believe that people can enjoy what they have in this way, as if they had to wait a while and save for it. It does not hurt to buy anything, on the contrary, it usually feels good. But does it still work if the credit card statement is in the mailbox?

According to God's word, the lender is a servant or slave to his master, see Proverbs 22: 7. Never forget that Jesus died so that we would enjoy freedom and not live in bondage.

 

Work, give, save and spend

It is important that we learn to work, give, save and spend within our current capabilities. If you apply a bit of discipline now, you will save a lot of pressure and trouble later on. 
God wants you to be fine and blessed. But he does not want to be responsible for extras that can take their time as well. Now you may ask what about a house or a car.. Is it al right to finance such large expenditures with loans? ... 
Most will not be able to handle such costs without credit. But you should always complete the financing in such a way that the day is foreseeable in which they will have settled their debts and can continue to live without debt.

you can be debt-free if you only do everything. Start praying for it.

God can be exuberant, overflowing, and giving over everything we hope, ask, or dare to see, see Ephesians 3:20.
Be courageous in your requests and passionate in giving.

To be continued ... shalom

 

there is work for you in the kingdom… are you ready?

shalom ...
the vision in the lion is great ... just like our god ... it's global, international and as small as you and me ...
it's not about you and me as a person and about our honour and ego ... it's about the question
Who are you in his kingdom, where do you belong, what should you do and let ... how can you serve him, what are you called and when?
Do you want to request this and seek Him like never before ...
It's a matter of awe and how much you love the Lord ... or rather, what are you willing to give up to follow Him ...
when do you and I want to acknowledge that HIS WILL IS HAPPING and not ours ... this is not easy but necessary ... and the
Reward is great ... maybe not right now and maybe not as we wish ...
There are 12 pillars the Lord has shown in Lion of Judah for all.. may be you are called as servants, givers, intercessors, transmitters, preachers, shepherds, prophets, evangelists, miracle workers, supporters,
Helpers, encouragements ... what is your part ... what prevents us to take these vocations and to choose ...

Matthew 20

16 So the last shall be first, and the first last. For many are called, but few are chosen.”



your Jesus and master... 
P.S. and may be he hides.. so he wants you to seek HIM more.. HIS presence... 
May HE encounter us in 2018... 
thank you for loving HIM first...
