1 Peter 2:19-25
For this is thank-worthy, if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully. For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God. For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth: Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judges righteously: Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed. For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.
2 Corinthians 1:5—For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also abounds by Christ.
2 Corinthians 4:10—Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.
Philippians 3:10-11—That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.
2 Timothy 3:12—Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
John 15:18-20—If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.
Hebrews 4:15—For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
Isaiah 53:12—Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Acts 10:39-42—And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree: Him God raised up the third day, and shewed him openly; Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead. And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to testify that it is he which was ordained of God to be the Judge of quick and dead.
Deuteronomy 21:22-23—And if a man have committed a sin worthy of death, and he be to be put to death, and thou hang him on a tree: His body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt in any wise bury him that day; (for he that is hanged is accursed of God;) that thy land be not defiled, which the Lord thy God gives thee for an inheritance.
Galatians 3:13-14—Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangs on a tree: That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
Psalm 23:1-6—The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures: he leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul: he leads me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou prepares a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anoints my head with oil; my cup runs over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
Revelation 7:17—For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
John 10:11—I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd gives his life for the sheep.
Ezekiel 37:24—And David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them.
Hebrews 13:20-21
Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is well-pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

In Thy Loving Presence
Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever, Thank you for opened-door blessings absent any sorrow, the favor of wisdom, understanding, counsel and knowledge on how to live humbled in thy sight laying hold to hope for a better and heavenly tomorrow; for and in all things to the expected end of your glory in this world and that to come dear FATHER, HALLELUJAH! Amen.
#GodHears #GodAnswers #HumbledInThyLovingPresence
When we allow ourselves to be humbled in the ever omnipresence of the Lord, the closer we are in view of the face [glory] of the Most High. Humbling sits us down; just still and long enough to hear from the Lord, to taste and see that the LORD our GOD alone, is good…
~the Messenger
…Moreover:
- We learn to appreciate the beauty of holiness with holy fire; consumed in and going about His business spreading the good news of a freedom so rich and powerful.
- We get to a place where things that once used to trouble us, fade in comparison of the promises of God in every yes and amen.
- We learn that walking in faith means so much more, than mere believing; but actually trusting in who God is and how blessed we are to be gifted a part of him in power, love, and of a sound mind [CHRIST].
- We learn that this power is seated in authority of the Word of God. The same word and form of godliness FATHER wants us not to deny.
For instance, if we pray asking anything (whatsoever); FATHER says we shall have it if we believe. The works that the Lord did when he walked the earth was loaned to us to do even greater works (by faith). By faith we cast our bread [sowing of God’s Word, self-same faith seed authored and finished by Christ~the manna or bread of heaven]; upon many waters. Christ, is also the spiritual baptism, symbolic of our becoming washed by the water of life, which flows freely from within us [rivers of living water]. We sow this–His Word (seed of truth, power, love and sound mind); through faith never knowing when or expecting it to come back. Yet God’s Word does not come back void….
- It fulfills
- It quickens
- It cuts
- It divides
- It discerns
- It blesses
- It curses
- It heals
- It edifies
- It delivers
- ..but most importantly It saves
After many days [time]; it returns [harvest] and we see and experience of its fruition. No one knows for certain how lengthy the fermenting or germination process via time it will take for that thing to sprout up and grow forth. This is why FATHER encourages care of our communication…because of His gift of fire (another power); the tongue is dangerous—At times to our own detriment.
Sometimes, if we perform inventory—self-examination, we might find that our present is a reflective effect of our past cause(s)…especially where the WORD (creation) is of concern. Perhaps we should be careful what we put out in the power of the air. It may bump a cloud sending unexpected rain on what we thought may be an otherwise sunny day in time of life. —Still talking seed-time-harvest. Yet, it will be worked for our good; teaching us how to rain dance or to surf high tides…like riding waves or walking on water—We just face it head on, fearless & trusting God. May we never forget that there is a fine relationship between (1) our spiritual operations—work and (2) the impetus, resultant one from another via occasion, behavior or circumstances of events, surrounding around what we believe…”As a man thinks, so is he & we reap what is sown”——faith (alive or dead)
~the Messenger
Thy Loving Presence ℵτ
- We know the gospel has been preached abroad and in some cases in record time to add, which confirms a part of the missionary (disciplined ambassadors or ministers of the Word of God); the nature of Christ.
- There are still some who consider others before themselves in alms, love, charity, communication and fellowship; the nurture of Christ.
- Still another few are zealous, enthusiastic, willing and ready to hear, obey and do for one another without hesitation or expectation (paying it forward); the passion of Christ. This same few garner strength and readiness to do so despite opposition, persecution, attempts to kill steal or destroy there mission; the love and power of Christ.
- Those of us who are maturing in moral behavior, spiritual discernment, consciousness, and better use of our free will; pay less attention to outer forces, even amidst them; the mind of Christ.
It’s such an amazing place…to be nestled in His loving presence.

“O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together. I sought the Lord, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed” (Psalm 34:3-5).

Psalm 34:8-13
O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusts in him. O fear the Lord, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him. The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing. Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the Lord. What man is he that desires life, and loves many days, that he may see good? Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.

Luke 10:1-9
After these things the Lord appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come. Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth laborers into his harvest. Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves. Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute no man by the way. And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house. And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again. And in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the laborer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house. And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you: And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
Luke 12:2-5
For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known. Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light; and that which ye have spoken in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed upon the housetops. And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.
Luke 12:6-12
Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God? But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows. Also I say unto you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God: But he that denies me before men shall be denied before the angels of God. And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but unto him that blasphemes against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven. And when they bring you unto the synagogues, and unto magistrates, and powers, take ye no thought how or what thing ye shall answer, or what ye shall say: For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say
As always we encourage our readers/audience to never take our word for it, yet to the seek the Lord on it. Furthermore, we ask consideration to remember, that the messenger is minuscule to the profundity of the message.
