Honoring Your Service and Sacrifice! (And Praying for Those Who Hold You Dear In Their Hearts)

Honoring Your Service and Sacrifice! (And Praying for Those Who Hold You Dear In Their Hearts)

Those who serve in our military hold a very special place in my heart. Today, I honor the sacrifices of those who have experienced physical loss of life in their service to our country. I also honor the sacrifices that the families and loved ones of these individuals have made, and that many are yet experiencing. My prayers are with the families and loved ones of the precious and dear members who have served in our nation’s military and experienced physical loss of life. May THE BLESSING AND PEACE OF GOD’S PRESENCE BE YOURS TODAY AND ALWAYS!
“7 And the peace of God [that peace which reassures the heart, that peace] which transcends all understanding, [that peace which] stands guard over your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus [is yours].” Philippians 4:7 (Amplified Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)

If HE spoke it, HE shall perform it.

IT IS WRITTEN.
Speak the “IT IS WRITTEN”.

There is power in the “IT IS WRITTEN”. The “IT IS WRITTEN” is GOD’S HOLY WORD. There is Power in THE HOLY SCRIPTURES.

FORM WORLDS WITH WORDS
“1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.”
Genesis 1:1-:3 (English Standard Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)

“5 Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children.” Ephesians 5:1 (English Standard Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)

“I Will Bless the Lord at All Times;
His Praise Shall Continually be in My Mouth”

“The Lord, a Provider and the One Who Rescues Me.
A Psalm of David; when he pretended to be insane before Abimelech, who drove him out, and he went away.

34 I will bless the Lord at all times;
His praise shall continually be in my mouth.
2
My soul makes its boast in the Lord;
The humble and downtrodden will hear it and rejoice.
3
O [a]magnify the Lord with me,
And let us lift up His name together.
4
I sought the Lord [on the authority of His word], and He answered me,
And delivered me from all my fears.
5
They looked to Him and were radiant;
Their faces will never blush in shame or confusion.
6
This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him
And saved him from all his troubles.
7
The [b]angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him [with awe-inspired reverence and worship Him with obedience],
And He rescues [each of] them.

8
O taste and see that the Lord [our God] is good;
How blessed [fortunate, prosperous, and favored by God] is the man who takes refuge in Him.
9
O [reverently] fear the Lord, you His saints (believers, holy ones);
For to those who fear Him there is no want.
10
The young lions lack [food] and grow hungry,
But they who seek the Lord will not lack any good thing.
11
Come, you children, listen to me;
I will teach you to fear the Lord [with awe-inspired reverence and worship Him with obedience].
12
Who is the man who desires life
And loves many days, that he may see good?
13
Keep your tongue from evil
And your lips from speaking deceit.
14
Turn away from evil and do good;
Seek peace and pursue it.

15
The eyes of the Lord are toward the righteous [those with moral courage and spiritual integrity]
And His ears are open to their cry.
16
The face of the Lord is against those who do evil,
To cut off the memory of them from the earth.
17
When the righteous cry [for help], the Lord hears
And rescues them from all their distress and troubles.
18
The Lord is near to the heartbroken
And He saves those who are crushed in spirit (contrite in heart, truly sorry for their sin).

19
Many hardships and perplexing circumstances confront the righteous,
But the Lord rescues him from them all.
20
He keeps all his bones;
Not one of them is broken.
21
Evil will cause the death of the wicked,
And those who hate the righteous will be held guilty and will be condemned.
22
The Lord redeems the soul of His servants,
And none of those who take refuge in Him will be condemned.” Psalm 34 (Amplified Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)

JESUS IS THE SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY AND FOREVER. GOD IS NO RESPECTER OF PERSONS.

JESUS IS THE SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY AND FOREVER. GOD IS NO RESPECTER OF PERSONS. As it was then, so it is now. If you have been hurt, wounded, paralyzed or “stuck” in any way, shape or form, THE WORDS OF JESUS ARE SPEAKING to you “Take Up Your Bed and Walk’.

“5 After this there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

2 Now there is in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate a pool, in Aramaic[a] called Bethesda,[b] which has five roofed colonnades. 3 In these lay a multitude of invalids—blind, lame, and paralyzed.[c] 5 One man was there who had been an invalid for thirty-eight years. 6 When Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had already been there a long time, he said to him, “Do you want to be healed?” 7 The sick man answered him, “Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up, and while I am going another steps down before me.” 8 Jesus said to him, “Get up, take up your bed, and walk.”” John 5:1-:8 (English Standard Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)

JESUS Came to Set You Free (Accept and Embrace What CHRIST Has Done and Walk in the Liberty That CHRIST HAS SO GRACIOUSLY Given to You)

JESUS CAME TO SET THE CAPTIVES FREE
“The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me,
because the Lord has anointed me
to bring good news to the poor;[a]
he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim liberty to the captives,
and the opening of the prison to those who are bound;[b]” Isaiah 61:1 (English Standard Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)

WHOM THE SON HAS SET FREE IS FREE INDEED
“36 So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.” John 8:36 (English Standard Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)
