The Center of Everything! Revealed-Securred-Life

Psalm 118 is considered the middle of the Bible by some. The middle verse is verse 8: "It is better to trust in יהוה than to put confidence in man. Putting God at the center of His amazing story."

... but this Psalm starts and ends with words that we should be taking special note of: "O give thanks unto יהוה; for he is good: because his mercy endureth for ever."

Why should we take special note thereof?

Paul gives this remarkable, powerful insight in his letter to the Ephesians when he presents Jesus as our Peace.
 
Ever thought about Jesus as your peace?

2016 - looking ahead (epignōsis)

Happy 2016!
Our payer for you is to put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him Col 3:10

New Man - Christ Jesus

Renewed - changed to life, to grown, to be strengthened

Knowledge (epignōsis) - precise knowledge and discernment of the Truth (that is through relationship with Him)

The image of Who? - Jesus, Yah'shua Himself!

So that in 2016 and beyond you will mount up with wings as eagles; run, and not be wearied; walk, and not faint. Isa 40:31

Look and be saved - panah!


Right ... 

following through from our previous post (here), let's see what happens after Yah'shua is raised from death in terms of us ...


Isaiah explains beautifully in verse 14 (Isaiah 45) how the victory becomes ours when the labor of Egypt (root word is bondage) and the merchandise  of Cush (those in darkness) and the Sabeans (drunkards) shall become yours. That they will walk behind you in chains and bow down to you and say this profound truth:

"SURELY GOD IS IN YOU, AND THERE IS NO OTHER; THERE IS NO OTHER GOD."

Isaiah in verse 15 exclaims: "Verily thou art an El that hidest thyself, O Elohim of Israel, the Saviour [Hebrew - yâsha‛ ... as in Yah'shua]."

How?

Abba tells us from verse 21:

"Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I יהוה? and there is no Elohim else beside me; a just El and a Saviour [Hebrew - yâsha‛ ... as in Yah'shua]; there is none besides me."

But ... what should we do?

Verse 22:

"Look [pânâh - turn to Me, behold and face Me, draw onto Me, regard Me. Pictograph - speak life through Grace] unto me, and be ye saved [yâsha‛], all the ends of the earth: for I am El, and there is none else."
 
... and so the Word made us righteous ...
 
"I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.
 
Surely, shall one say, in יהוה have I righteousness and strength: even to him shall men come; and all that are incensed against him shall be ashamed." Isa 45:21-24

... righteousness and strength ...

pânâh into His marvelous Light and know He is God!

How does the enslaved church respond to Grace?

The Word of God tells us exactly how enslaved people react against those filled with faith and power, those who do great wonders and signs among the people.

These are the people depending on their religious traditions and like things instead of allowing the perfect law of liberty to bring change to their minds.

Zaphnathpaaneah!


Rest is an interesting word!

It means: not to work; to depend and find comfort in what someone else is doing; to be wedge-jointed.

So, what does this mean for us?

Afar off!


Even if you are rough and tough and head-strong ...

Even if you are shy, soft spoken, introvert ...

... Grace finds you.

Grace encourages you and clothes you with the new man created in the likeliness of God, in righteousness and true holiness ... bold and fearless!

Does Love ever fail?


Friends,

Let's consider the "Love Chapter" ...

...for once, not as preached by the law-preacher to incite condemnation, but for what it is - A DECLARATION OF LOVE AND GRACE!
