Wigs Word of God Today 8-18-2013
Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us rid ourselves of every burden and sin that clings to us and persevere in running the race that lies before us while keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus, the Leader and Perfecter of faith. For the sake of the joy that lay before Him He endured the Cross, despising its shame, and has taken His seat at the Right of the Throne of God. Hebrews 12:1-2
Jeremiah 38:4-10, Psalm 40, Hebrews 12:1-4 & Luke 12:49-53
It may seem hard to focus on the sufferings of Christ to fully live the life of renouncing sin. We look at suffering as something bad in our lives but in Truth we find God places obstacles to see that the true needs of your abilities are accomplished by practice emerged in prayer screaming the silent or verbal words of God’s Divine Designed Truth. We must rid our thoughts not focused on Christ embracing the joy that lay before us in thought, action and deed. There is no shame in the freedom you announce in the Salvation Jesus offers us all. If you are willing to announce Him in everything you do, He promises you He’ll announce you in Heaven when the race is complete.
It too seems hard to fully comprehend the division God’s Son causes in the day-to-day aspects of life with family, friends and the people you meet. The importance of living for Jesus comes out in the nonjudgmental areas of life’s repose seeing not the sin but the sinner who needs your embrace. Why does His love threaten people with such denial and force? Self-will gives us options of excess which God sees as greed. Many will despise you but many more will welcome the everlasting Truth surrounded in the faith, hope and love gifted in charity. God’s Grace will soothe your jealous hearts allowing His Purpose to give you strength and courage. Worry not of their hate pray for their conversion. Amen.
We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray to persevere by keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus. Novena prayers day two for Maria with cancer. Novena prayers day one for Ocean Studies Montessori. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has our constant prayers. LORD from Psalm 62:12-13, I chant- “One thing God has said; two things I have heard: Strength belongs to God; so too, my LORD, does mercy, For you repay each man according to his deeds.” In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.
I am yours in Christ,

Sitting now by the Hand of Judgment- Hebrews 12:1-4
Paul addressing us all
Called us not to fall
Tall are the witnesses to call
Stall the sin we used to crawl
Give up not the race
Rid yourself of the haste
Eyes fixed on Christ’s taste
The Salvation He Perfected in grace
Joy beyond all torment
Nothing hidden or lying dormant
Cross endured winds storming
Shame despised grace His Will forming
Sitting now by the Hand of Judgment
Enduring sinner’s eternal opposition
Lose not heart or strength in your struggles
You resist not to the point of bloodshed
