Protection for the people of God

 I shall be a wall of fire around the inhabitants of Zion 


I shall be the glory of the city


Everyone will come under my protection


My people shall become one.


United in the bond of peace


The systems of this earthly realm shall not know peace until I come


When I will draw all men to myself


I shall make myself known to all people


They shall be my people and I shall be their God


I shall move my people they will see me as I truly am and they will delight in me


For I am protector and provider


Amen



A gift from God

 God has given each of you a gift from his great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another. Do you have the gift of speaking? Then speak as though God himself were speaking through you. Do you have the gift of helping others? Do it with all the strength and energy that God supplies. Then everything you do will bring glory to God through Jesus Christ. All glory and power to him forever and ever! Amen.

1 Peter 4:10‭-‬11 NLT

My dear friend God has seen fit to grant you a wonderful gift from his bountiful store


Use it for the benefit of the body of believers


God gives both the gift and the power and opportunity to use it


Be amazed at the response as you use your gift 


God will certainly advance his message of peace and goodwill through you as you use your gift in all humility for his purposes shall be fulfilled in due course


Keep the good faith as you have been taught 


Remember that all things shall be done according to the way of the Lord 


In his good time his good purposes shall be completed


Amen






The day draws near

 So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor. Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.

1 Peter 5:6‭-‬7 NLT

https://bible.com/bible/116/1pe.5.6-7.NLT


The day when God will honor you draws near


Do you not sense it?


You are my child and I delight in caring for you


Just a little while longer and I will lift you up


So I tell you do not lose heart now 


This next season of your life 


Will see Gods plans fulfilled


He shall not delay in  drawing near to you .


Listen to my voice and sense my leading


You are my beloved child and I shall make my plans known to you


You shall receive an inheritance from my hand 


Everything I have for you is available from my open hand


Amen


Open your mind

 Intelligent people are always ready to learn. Their ears are open for knowledge.

Proverbs 18:15 NLT

https://bible.com/bible/116/pro.18.15.NLT


Be attentive to my voice and listen to my words says the lord


Quiet your mind and I will speak to you 


Sit down open the scriptures


Do you not hear my voice and sense my spirit 


It is I that speak to you


I never cease to speak to you says the lord


Let deaf ears be unstopped


Let the voice of God come through crystal clear just like the river of life flows crystal clear from the altar of Gods throne.


Learn from me says the lord 


Oh how blessed we are 


We are the chosen ones of God 


God chooses you to carry his holiness into a broken world 


You are his representative


Wherever you are 


Whoever you are 


Through you the kingdom of God is manifest to the people around you.


I am moving says the lord


My spirit shall advance like never before the world has never seen the like of what I'm about to do 


Amen




Common struggle

 In this new life, it doesn’t matter if you are a Jew or a Gentile, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbaric, uncivilized, slave, or free. Christ is all that matters, and he lives in all of us.

Colossians 3:11 NLT

https://bible.com/bible/116/col.3.11.NLT



Put to death all manner of sin and evil from your former life and put on the new self which is in the likeness of the character of Christ



This is the common struggle which unifies us into one family


There no difference which excludes you from this community of believers 


Both rich and poor both high and low are called to renew their minds in the spirit of Christ 


For he desires that all peoples are transformed into his likeness


Amen
