Wonderful Things

Exodus: Chapter 11 verse 9
The LORD had said to Moses,
“Pharaoh will refuse to listen to you –
so that my wonders may be multiplied in Egypt”
***
Do you realize that even today The LORD is still performing His wonders.
If you do not know what is going on in this day and age,
please find a spirit filled church and read some of the reports that are coming in from around the world.
It is incredible what The LORD is doing.
The same now as 2000 years ago, healing the sick,
giving sight to the blind,
bringing people out of darkness into His Kingdom of Light.
The list goes on.
Remember He needs us and wants us to participate with The Holy Spirit
to accomplish the same works that Jesus did on earth.

We are very fortunate that The Lord Jesus uses Doctors, Nurses, Specialists and many other people to help with healing us for our bodies.
But remember that we need to submit ourselves to our Heavenly Father to receive the blessings that is in store for us and for Jesus to heal our Soul, our mind our thinking.
Let us try to listen to God our Heavenly Father for instructions each day to live a good life living in the Kingdom of God while we are on this earth.
Maybe we can Pray for God’s Wonders to be in our lives and the lives of our family and loved ones, let us not be like Pharaoh who refused to listen, remember what happened to him and to his Kingdom. If you are not sure then you can find the reading of the Exodus in your Bible.
* I Pray that The LORD’S Wonders may be evident in your life.
Have a Lovely day may God Bless You with Love, Peace and Joy.*

I hope you enjoy looking at the above book.

What about Moses?
Malachi: Chapter 4 verse 4.
Remember the law of my servant Moses,
the decrees and laws
I gave Him at Horeb for all Israel.
***
Do you remember the law that was given to Moses, we know that as Christians we live by grace now and not by law. However we do need to live according to the Commandments that were given to Moses.
If we break one we may as well have broken the lot because in the eyes of God – sin is sin however large or small.
I am thankful that we can ask Jesus to forgive us and that He does, especially as we go before God asking for all that we seem to ask Him for!

I have put a picture of a Scroll on here today to remind us that the Ten Commandments may have been put on a Scroll to be read out to people.
Moses of course brought them down from the mountain on the tablets that had been written “with the finger of God”
We are very fortunate that we can read them in our Holy Bible (Exodus 31:18) it is good to check them out once in a while to see what we should be doing and possibly not what we are doing.
One of them says ‘that you should have no other Gods”
So what other Gods do we have in our lives…. maybe some sort of Idols, or maybe the love of money, food, gossip, television, there are lots of things that take priority in our lives instead of living a godly life with the love of Jesus and walking with the Holy Spirit in our daily lives. One thing is to love our neighbour as ourselves (difficult that one – if we are not keen about talking to some people) even family members.
It really is a Christian challenge to try to keep the Ten Commandments isn’t it?
Let us Pray that we can become more Godly day by Day walking in the Love of The Lord.
May God our Heavenly Father Bless us Today

Be Holy
The above is an ‘Oil Painting” of a Vision that someone had.
*
Leviticus: Chapter 19 verses 1-2
The LORD said to Moses,
Speak to the entire assembly of Israel and say to them:
‘Be holy because –
I, The LORD your God, am Holy.’
*
Today we need to be reminded of this – we need to be holy because the LORD our God is Holy. How can we do this you may well ask? Possibly in lots of ways but one thing we can do, is to try to keep ourselves from the evils of this world.
God has called us to be Holy.
That means we are set aside for Him. Let us try to stay that way for The LORD our God each day.
*
The above is taken from book ‘Drink from the Cup’ by. J.M.R. Larman.
We can only take one day at a time while we live on this earth to try to be Holy.
We are not that clever to be able to do this by ourselves.
We need the help of The Holy Spirit to help guide us each day.
Really when you think about it this can only happen if we are a Christian, so we best become one and get on with it.
So, you may say that is not very holy to talk like that but it is the truth and in the Bible it says ‘the truth will set you free’ Therefore for us to be holy it is an on going thing. We don’t like to not be able to do some of the worldly things. However, we should really try to obey the Ten Commandments that were give to Moses. If you are not sure what they are they can be found in your Holy Bible……if you do not happen to have one…….then maybe look on Google because there you can find most things.
Today let us hopefully not get really cross with anyone and upset them, let us not swear or steal or commit different kinds of crime. Let us try to love our neighbour as ourselves (that is one of the Commandments) I am not going to list them here because if you want to be Holy then it is up to you to try, no-one else can do that for you.
Please let us remember to Pray and ask God our Heavenly Father to allow The Holy Spirit to help us as we walk in truth and love with Jesus our Lord.

Trustworthy
2 Timothy: Chapter 2 verse 11
Here is a trustworthy saying:
If we died with Him,
we will also live with Him.
*
When we invite Jesus into our lives, we become new creatures in Christ.
Our old selves have died and we become one with Him.
Therefore praise The Lord we do live with Him today also forever and ever. Amen.

From the book: ‘Drink from the Cup’ by J.M.R.Larman.
Well – what do you think? Is it better to live with Jesus or not to have Him in your life?
This is a decision that only you can make, I can’t make it for you nor can anyone else. It is a personal matter but one that needs to be taken seriously because if you invite Jesus into your life then I believe you must accept the Holy Bible and all that is written in it.
It does say that a man shall leave his Mother and Father and cleave to his wife and they shall be one. Then they are to go forth and multiply, only a man and woman can achieve this. Even the animals need a male and a female to reproduce. Everything is ordered in the Bible to produce after their own kind, every seed shall bear fruit of the same kind i.e. an Oak Tree seed ( that is an acorn) cannot grow as an apple tree.
There is no reason why two men or two women cannot love one another because we are commanded to Love one another but a marriage cannot take place with two people of the same sex, because they cannot go forth and multiply, so it is an ungodly union to ask to be married as stated in the Holy Bible.
No one can deny that they cannot live together as friends and lovers it is up to their decision to do so. Maybe there could be a different definition of their union to make it legal as they want to benefit from the government gratuities that married couples receive. They also want to be recognized having an official ceremony to declare their oath to one another and be accepted by the world.
So what could the official and legal ceremony be named as they should not be married in a Church because it is against the teaching of the Holy Bible.
A Legal Civil Ceremony could take place to show the world that they are dedicated to each other so that it would be a legal and binding oath to have and to hold until death they do part. Maybe come under the title of Life Partners which therefore would include which ever sex they are.
Also this would free all Churches to not have to worry about them being accepted and married in the Church of God.
Jesus is Lord
May God Bless you today and always.
Have a lovely Day.
*Do Something Nice today *
1 Corinthians: Chapter 15 verse 58.
Therefore,
my dear brothers,
stand firm.
Let nothing move you.
Always give yourselves fully
to the work of The Lord,
because you know
that your labour in The Lord
is not in vain.
***
Our labour in The Lord is definitely not in vain.
He sees all the things that we do for Him.
Everything is recorded of our works.
So today maybe we could do something nice for The Lord Jesus.
***
From the book: ‘Drink from the Cup’ by J.M.R. Larman.
So what then is our labour in The Lord? I believe it is mostly to keep the Ten Commandments that were given all those years ago to Moses. Well, some people think that we do not need to read the Old Testament in the Bible but we do need to heed what it says.
If you have never read the Old Testament feel free to give it a go.
You may be surprised and learn something new each day. You only need to read a bit each day, it’s no good just reading it if you cannot digest what it is saying and just reading for the sake of saying that you have read it. Take your time and just read a few verses at a time so that you can understand more fully what those verses really mean. There is no hurry and just a few minutes at the same time each day will make a lot of difference.
So to do something nice today – would be perhaps to get up and go for a walk and say ‘Hello’ to someone. Or to visit someone you know who has not been able to go out for a while. We can take a little gift, perhaps a posy of Flowers, a packet of Biscuits to stay and have a cuppa with them. If you have made extra cake or cakes, someone may appreciate your visit if you take some to them.
We don’t always have to stay and talk – just deliver your gift to them at the door and say * God Bless * to them.
That I believe – is also working or doing something for the Lord Jesus.
We can’t all be in the limelight doing great things but I am sure that The Lord acknowledges our efforts to help our families and friends.
One of the Commands is to Love our Neighbours as ourselves…….a bit difficult sometimes but never the less it is a Commandment that we should think about…..well you may ask who is my neighbour? Just the normal people we meet each and every day, I think that they are our neighbours in this world.
* May God Bless Us Today
as We Stand Firm
to do the Work of The Lord *

WE CAN
2 Corinthians Chapter 2 verse 10
Godly sorrow brings repentance
that leads to salvation
and leaves no regret
but worldly sorrow brings death.
***
When we truly repent our hearts can sing because we know that we are forgiven, that we will definitely try not to offend God in the way that we used to. Godly sorrow is good because although we can be sad about the circumstance that has arisen we are blessed so much when we take hold of the fact that Jesus has forgiven us and that our sin is blotted out from Our Father in Heaven. In worldly sorrow there can be no joy, in Godly sorrow Jesus rejoices that we repent and grants us peace in our hearts.
From the Book: ‘Drink from the Cup’ by J.M.R. Larman.

This was going to be a Poem……but never mind, I hope you like what is written. It is called:
WE CAN
We are in this world of sin – We do not have to take part in it
We have been given a conscience – We can choose to do right or to sin
We can do all lovely things – We can sing and dance
We can eat and drink – We can love or not love
We can swim or drown – We can walk or run
We can write or draw – We can choose what we want
We can help others or not help – We can do all these things
We can do so much in this world – We can do good things instead of bad
We can decide not to sin – We can use our brain to decide
We can use our heart to discern – We can love The Lord our God
We can love each other – We can therefore have no need to sin.
***
* God Bless You Today, Have a lovely Day *

You may like to look at the above Book – hope you like it.
“Because He loves me”
Psalm: 91 verse 14
“Because He loves me,” say’s The LORD,
“I will rescue him;
I will protect him,
for he acknowledges my name”.
*
Being children of God means that we choose to love Jesus.
So as the Psalm say’s, when we acknowledge His Name
He protects us and rescues us from all our iniquities.

Rose -Pen/Drawing
If we are old or young – when we are a Christian we are a child of God.
I mean a child of God our Father in Heaven – the Father of Jesus Christ who is our Lord and Saviour.
It is good to know that God Loves each one of us, whoever we are, wherever we are.
God can see us during the daylight or during the night when it is dark. He never sleeps and can be with us always when we have invited Jesus into our Life. (into our heart)
When we have Jesus in our heart we have the Trinity – that means we have God The Father and the Holy Spirit as well as Jesus i.e. Three in one.
So how can you say that you are lonely when you have The Holy Spirit to talk to and fellowship with Him day and night.
I know we can be lonely – wanting and needing a human being to talk to sometimes and that is only natural – think of this – we are never alone, never because The Spirit of Jesus – The Holy Spirit – The Comforter whom Jesus sent to be with us when He went back to Heaven is with us in our heart.
So there we are, as Christians we are truly blessed with the Love of The Lord Jesus.
This is the day that the Lord has made,
let us be glad and rejoice in it.
I Pray that you have a lovely Day today.
* God Bless You. (and me) with the Love of THE LORD *

Husband & Wife
1 Corinthians: Chapter 7 verses 2-3
But since there is so much immorality,
each man should have his own wife
and each woman her own husband.
The husband should fulfil his maritial duty
to his wife
and likewise the wife to her husband,
the wife’s body does not belong to her alone
but also to her husband.
***
This is pretty awesome when you think about it and is quite profound, we really should take note and act in the way that we were made regarding husband and wife.
***
The above is from the Book: ‘Drink from the Cup’ by J.M.R. Larman.
Well there is not much we can say about the above reading except that we need to be willing to obey God’s Word……I know that we can’t all have a Husband or Wife but for those that do it is a blessing to read and understand the meaning of the above.
God didn’t put that in the Bible just for something to say – He really meant it and what a blessing it is to be a Christian in the Kingdom of God here on earth. To have someone to love and for them to love back in return.
I Pray that you have a lovely Day and for anyone that is not a Christian reading this all you have to do to become one is to ask Jesus to come into your life (your heart) tell Him you are sorry for all the wrong things you have done and really mean that you want Jesus in your life.……and guess what? He will be there with you, with God the Father and the Holy Spirit (that is the Spirit of Jesus).
Just remember that we were all sinners
before we invited Jesus
into our lives to become Christians.
God Bless You Today with Love.

Jesus knew…..
Drawing of Key by J.M.R. Larman.
……………………….
St. John Chapter 13 verse 3
Jesus knew that the Father had put
all things under His power
and
that He had come from God
and
was returning to God;
***
As Christians we have been given the Power that Jesus bestowed upon us to use for His Kingdom while we live on this earth, then when our time is right we shall return to God our maker in Heaven to be with Jesus. Let us make good use today of that divine power and walk in the love of The Lord Jesus.
Taken from the book ‘Drink from the Cup’ by: J.M.R.Larman.
***
So the Key to the Power of the Kingdom of God is Jesus, he has bestowed on us Power to use by His Holy Spirit indwelling in us when we have accepted Jesus as Lord of our life. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Jesus, who helps us to pray, who opens the door to the throne room of God, who will hear our Prayers through Jesus Christ our Lord.
What a privilage to be able to Pray to our Heavenly Father at any time day or night. Remember The Holy Spirit never sleeps He is with us always, to comfort and guide us, teach us and lead us in the ways of The Kingdom of God. Now that must be Power indeed.
Did you know that I beleive The Dove represents
the Holy Spirit.

* Have a Lovely Powerful Day walking
in the Power of Jesus,

Love One Another
1 Corinthians: Chapter 13 verse 3
“A new command I give you: Love one another, as I have loved you, so you must love one another” If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames but have not love, I gain nothing.”
***
We as humans cannot possibly live to the full without love. As you read the above chapter, I pray that The Lord Jesus will guide you into greater understanding regarding the facts about love. It is one of the most beautiful and powerful chapters in the Bible. Without His love and the love of God we truly are nothing.
*****
Well there we are – we know now that God wants us to love one another and that we really cannot live our lives on this earth without some sort of love. It is good to know that we can give love to our families and our pets. Sometimes we do not have a human being to share our life with but love goes on through us not only to our neighbours, our friends, our families but to all creatures – great and small –
So today let us try to be kind to whoever comes before us today, even if it is someone who we do not get on with very well, it is a command from God that we show them His love. Being kind I beleive is showing love, we don’t have to gush over people with hugs and kisses to ebarrass them do we?
