True Righteousness Burst Forth With Joy

You know why? Let me explain. Because when you are in right standing with God, there is nothing in between you an his presence, Psalms 16:7. No dark clouds, no deceptive thoughts, no cares are worries, for great salvation Christ hath wrought. True righteousness believes the report of the Lord. And that pleases our God, Hebrews 11:6. So upon you is poured, the oil of joy, the oil of gladness. This strips away the affects of the curse which include sorrow and sadness.

Hebrews 1:9
Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows

Psalms 45:7 NIV

You love righteousness and hate wickedness; therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions by anointing you with the oil of joy 

Heralding The Christ Child

The Angels spoke unto the shepherds that watched their flocks by night. They brought them good tidings of great joy. The Christ had been born. The one who would save all those who would come unto Him.
They were saying, “Glory to God in the highest, an on earth, peace and good will to men.” God extended Himself to us through the life and ministry of His son. All any need do, is to call upon the name of Jesus, and the revelation of salvation would be imparted. Would you have a Merry Christmas this year?

Then embrace the Christ of Christmas 

In Bethlehem 

And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.

And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.

And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.

10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,

14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, 

Lights That Shine!

Lights that shine brilliantly together are in a special pattern designed by their maker. They sparkle most wondrously and are so bright, they are spectacular in the darkest night.
As the church of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, we are His shinning ones illuminated, for weary travelers to be able to navigate with, and receive their strength in such a way that glorifies the King of King, and causes His heart to rejoice & sing

Matthew 5:16
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven

Clouds

There are all kinds of clouds. The cirrus clouds that are light a and wispy. There are the stratus clouds. They look like thin, white sheets covering the whole sky. Since they are so thin, they seldom produce much rain or snow. Then there are Cumulus clouds. These clouds look like fluffy, white cotton balls in the sky. They are beautiful in sunsets, and their varying sizes and shapes can make them fun to observe! Of course we can’t forget about Cumulonimbus clouds. They are classic “thunderstorm clouds” and are large towering clouds that are often dark in color. Seeing them is a sign that a storm is likely brewing.

However I want to talk about a different type of cloud. It’s a cloud of goodness. When it rolls in, healing and miracles are showered down on men. As worship and expectancy continually arise, and every one has their focus on Christ, there are miracles of every sort. Is there a limb crippled, is a leg too short? Miracles descend upon the waiting masses, and all are filled with wonder and amazement. Men begin to sing out loud, that God is present in the “Glory Cloud.”

Ezekiel 10:4
Then the glory of the LORD went up from the cherub, and stood over the threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of the LORD’S glory.

2 Chronicles 5:14
So that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD had filled the house of God

1 Kings 8:7
so that the priests could not stand there to minister because of the cloud; for the glory of the LORD filled the house of the LORD

Now My Eyes Behold Him

I Have Heard Of You By the Hearing Of The Ear

We shall behold him face to face. It’s coming up. Get ready for it. He’s more excited then we are. But some of us are pretty excited. Won’t that be a grand time? I’ll say. So prepare, prepare, prepare, your heart. For you shall step right up before Him, and because you received His Son Jesus, you will never depart. He’ll be glad to talk to you and thank you for how you loved your brother and how you endeavored to keep the unity of the faith amongst one another. Ohh it will be a glorious time, because you kept him on your mind.

“I have heard of You by the hearing of the ear, But now my eye sees You. job 42:5h

The Voice Of The Lord

Psalm 29 King James Version (KJV)

29 Give unto the Lord, O ye mighty, give unto the Lord glory and strength.
2 Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.
3 The voice of the Lord is upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth: the Lord is upon many waters.
4 The voice of the Lord is powerful; the voice of the Lord is full of majesty.
5 The voice of the Lord breaketh the cedars; yea, the Lord breaketh the cedars of Lebanon.
6 He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn.
7 The voice of the Lord divideth the flames of fire.
8 The voice of the Lord shaketh the wilderness; the Lord shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.
9 The voice of the Lord maketh the hinds to calve, and discovereth the forests: and in his temple doth every one speak of his glory.
10 The Lord sitteth upon the flood; yea, the Lord sitteth King for ever.
11 The Lord will give strength unto his people; the Lord will bless his people with peace.

The Secret Place

In the secret place, in the secret place,
this is where visions and dreams are made clear.
In the secret place, in the secret place,
This is where fear, and uncertainty disappear.

It’s a place where strategies and procedures are adopted and refined.
It’s a place to gain wisdom, and insight, to strengthen the mind.

In the secret place, where noise, and commotions cease.
It’s where the next stage of your work, or your ministry is released.

Matthew 6:6 ESV
But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

Multiplied Not Just Added

Grace and peace is to be multiplied not just added. To the one who receives the knowledge of God’s word. It’s this way, the more you know, the more your able to receive. Just think of all the possibilities. They just continue to increase and increase. No wonder the scripture tells us that we go from faith to faith, and from glory to glory.
Rom. 1:17
For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith

2 Cor. 3:18
But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord

Ascribe to Him All That is Due

You see there’s is none to compare with Our Champion, Our Great King, Our Wonderful Counselor, Our Advocate, (some of you need Him today in this capacity), Our Great Standby, Our Rock of Ages, Our Prince Of Peace, Our Shield and Exceeding Great Reward. You see none can compare, to the Shepherd and Bishop Of Our Souls, Our Intercessor, Our Mighty King In Battle, the Lord Of Host’s is His Name. He’s Our Battle Axe, Out Of His mouth issues a Two-Edged Sword. A Fire goes before Him, and burns up all of His Enemies. The Hills melt like wax at His Presence. He Moves in the thick Darkness, He shoots out arrows and disperses the enemies of His People. Yes in the Old Testament and the New. Who is it that can stand before the Lord who holds the balance in His hand. No one is able too. So Ascribe to Him All that is Due, and watch Him silence the voice of violence arrayed against you!
Psalms 18:6-14
6 In my distress I called upon the Lord, and cried unto my God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, even into his ears.
7 Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations also of the hills moved and were shaken, because he was wroth.
8 There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.
9 He bowed the heavens also, and came down: and darkness was under his feet.
10 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: yea, he did fly upon the wings of the wind.
11 He made darkness his secret place; his pavilion round about him were dark waters and thick clouds of the skies.
12 At the brightness that was before him his thick clouds passed, hail stones and coals of fire.
13 The Lord also thundered in the heavens, and the Highest gave his voice; hail stones and coals of fire.
14 Yea, he sent out his arrows, and scattered them; and he shot out lightnings, and discomfited them.
