WHEN PRAYER IS THE ONLY OPTION

There are events or circumstances in life that will drive you to your knees,like:
Weeping, mourning, distress, trouble and disgrace, are among the many things that should lead you to pray and fast. Which is our only option, because, God says,
” If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to prayer made in this place”.
(2 Chronicles 7:14-15) have you prayed today.

I Chronicles 16:10-11 says, “Glory in His holy name; Let the hearts of those rejoice who seek the Lord ! Seek the Lord and His strength; Seek His face evermore! This should be the first response and act of the believer,not a last resort”.
David said in Psalm 121:1-8, “I will look to the hills, from whence cometh my help? My help comes from the Lord who made heaven and earth.” Everything and everyone who believes in God, turns to God because He is our refuge and strength; a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). Most of the men and women of God, from Genesis to Revelation, sought God when things were going good and bad. Even Jesus, the beloved Son of God, sought His heavenly Father’s help. Therefore, we should be no different when troubles come.

In Nehemiah Chapter 1 we see a perfect example of how the child of God should react when bad news about their fellow believers is known. You can’t be selfish and pray only for yourself when billions of other believers may be going through the same situation or a worse crisis in their life. Nehemiah’s troubling news led him to weep and mourn, but it also led him to fast and pray for the deliverance of his brothers and sisters in Christ. Are Christians following this example today or are they quick to criticize and judge instead of praying and fasting for deliverance? We know the people of the world is not supportive of us, but it’s worse when so-called Christians turn their backs on you instead of praying, fasting, comforting, and encouraging us as the Bible teaches (take a look at James 5:16); which means they are hearers of the Word and not doers. This is why you have to learn to encourage yourself in the Lord and pray and fast for yourself.

I love Nehemiah’s prayer so much I am personalizing it in to my own prayer. Heavenly Father, our great and awesome God, immortal, invisible; the only wise God, Creator of heaven and earth, You who have kept Your covenant and promises with those who love You and obey your commandments, who present their bodies as a living sacrifice that is holy and acceptable unto You, those who are not conformed to this world but transformed by the renewing of our minds. Please let Your ear be attentive and Your eyes open, that You may hear the prayer of Your servant which I pray before You day and night.

All glory, honor, praise and thanks go to God for using me to deliver this message. I pray that He will give all who read this message the spiritual gifts necessary to comprehend and act upon His word. I exercise my power and authority in the name of Jesus to bind every tactic of the enemy that will try to stop, hinder, or prevent this word from reaching its intended people. I ask the Lord to loose the Holy Spirit and the Heavenly angels to secure this word so that it reaches its intended people, according to Matthew 16:19 and Luke 10:19 in the omnipotent name of Jesus, Amen.

GOD KNOWS HIS CHILDREN

People fail to realize,that God knows those who are His,and His children know Him. They know what He hates,and what He loves. Above all His children are obedient to His word,and His will.
“Nevertheless the solid foundation of God stands, having this seal: “The Lord knows those who are His,” and, “Let everyone who names the name of Christ depart from iniquity.”{Timothy 2:19}.

Why do you not understand My speech? Because you are not able to listen to My word. You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it. But because I tell the truth, you do not believe Me. Which of you convicts Me of sin? And if I tell the truth, why do you not believe Me? He who is of God hears God’s words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of God.”[John 8:43-47]

God knows you even before you were born.
For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well.
{Psalms 139:13-14},and to confirm it,in Jeremiah it says:
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.”{Jeremiah 1:5 }.
When God calls you,officially you are His:
But now, thus says the Lord , who created you, O Jacob, And He who formed you, O Israel: “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; You are Mine.(Isaiah 43:1)
When you are a child of God,the things you use to do,you stop doing them,as the Bible said in,
2 Corinthians 5:17,18,20
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God”. People who knows God are not afraid of messing up,because they know that God can keep them,as the scripture says,”Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever”. Amen.
{Jude 1:24-25}
All we have to do is ask Him,and Ephesians 3:20 tells us ,” Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us….
Most people who claim to be Christians are almost like the unbeliever; they don’t know the God they serve, otherwise they would be obedient to Him, they would not doubt Him, and above all they would trust Him. That’s why in Romans 3:11-18 it says, “There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God, they are all gone out-of-the-way, they are together become unprofitable, there is none that doeth good no, not one. Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness: Their feet are swift to shed blood: Destruction and misery are in their ways: And the way of peace have they not known: There is no fear of God before their eyes.”

In Deuteronomy 8:19, He reminds us of the consequences of when we forget God, it says, “That it shall be, if you by any means forget God, and follow other gods, serve or worship them you shall surely perish.” Then, in Romans 6:23 He told us that the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Did you accept God’s gift of His only begotten Son Jesus Christ? Have you not departed from a life of  sin and evil? If not, prove that you don’t fear, love, respect or care about the God who made you and you may be in disobedience.

In Isaiah 40:28-29, God asks, “Have you not known? Have you not heard? The everlasting God, the Lord: the Creator of the ends of the earth, neither faints nor is weary, His understanding is unsearchable.” As David against Goliath, Samson against the Philistines and countless of other occasions, God, “gives power to the weak and to those who have no might he increases strength.” (Verse 29).  This is why He tells us in Hebrews 2:3, “How shall we escape, if we neglect so great a salvation…” Then Hebrews 3:15 says,”…Today if you will hear His voice, harden not your hearts (this only provokes God) as in the day of provocation.

Stop playing or toying with God. He is not a toy or force to jest (or play) with, remember he is omnipotent which is all-powerful, and if you push Him or force him to withdraw His grace and mercy then it is sudden death and destruction that is coming. Do you want to take that chance and keep playing as if you have plenty of time to waste? Many folks, young and old, are dying in these perilous times. You better hook up to the life line or umbilical cord of Eternal life through Jesus Christ who is the only way to God as John 14:6 points out.

It’s time to put your hope, trust, faith, and confidence in God so that you can manifest verse 31 in your life; those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength, mount up on wings like eagles, run and not be weary, walk and not faint. Try Him and you will never be sorry nor will you have any regrets, because God is faithful to all His promises.

STOP WASTING YOUR TIME

“Man who is born of woman Is of few days and full of trouble. He comes forth like a flower and fades away; He flees like a shadow and does not continue. And do You open Your eyes on such a one, And bring me to judgment with Yourself? Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? No one! Since his days are determined, The number of his months is with You; You have appointed his limits, so that he cannot pass.
{Job 14:1-5}
See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
{Ephesians 5:15-17}.

REMEMBER,”To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven: A time to be born, And a time to die; A time to plant, And a time to pluck what is planted; A time to kill, And a time to heal; A time to break down, And a time to build up; A time to weep, And a time to laugh; A time to mourn, And a time to dance; A time to cast away stones, And a time to gather stones; A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing; A time to gain, And a time to lose; A time to keep, And a time to throw away; A time to tear, And a time to sew; A time to keep silence, And a time to speak; A time to love, And a time to hate; A time of war, And a time of peace. What profit has the worker from that in which he labors? I have seen the God-given task with which the sons of men are to be occupied. He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end. I know that nothing is better for them than to rejoice, and to do good in their lives, and also that every man should eat and drink and enjoy the good of all his labor—it is the gift of God. I know that whatever God does, It shall be forever. Nothing can be added to it, And nothing taken from it. God does it, that men should fear before Him. That which is has already been, And what is to be has already been; And God requires an account of what is past”,{Ecclesiastes 3:1-15}.

AGAIN, I REPEAT,
“Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is” {Ephesians 5:15-16}.

“ Lord , make me to know my end, And what is the measure of my days, That I may know how frail I am. Indeed, You have made my days as handbreadths, And my age is as nothing before You; Certainly every man at his best state is but vapor. Selah Surely every man walks about like a shadow; Surely they busy themselves in vain; He heaps up riches, And does not know who will gather them. “And now, Lord, what do I wait for? My hope is in You. Deliver me from all my transgressions; Do not make me the reproach of the foolish.[Psalms 39:4-8]

But for him who is joined to all the living there is hope, for a living dog is better than a dead lion. For the living know that they will die; But the dead know nothing, And they have no more reward, For the memory of them is forgotten. Also their love, their hatred, and their envy have now perished; Nevermore will they have a share In anything done under the sun.
(Ecclesiastes 9:4-6 ).

PLEASING GOD

God’s Pleasure is for us to prosper,and be in good health,but our soul has to prosper (3 John 2) , But for that to happen,you have to do your part . This Means you have to live a life that is pleasing to Him.
How? Be obedient to His word, Here is how:

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God”.《Romans 12:1‭-‬2 》.
REMEMBER THIS :
” And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it”{1 Thessalonians 5:23‭-‬24 }.

LISTEN:
God does not want anyone to perish in hell.
Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord God : and not that he should return from his ways, and live? But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath sinned, in them shall he die.( Ezekiel 18:23-24).
The truth is:
“The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance”.[2 Peter 3:9 ]

GOD REQUIRES EVERYTHING
Revelation 4:11 says,”You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for you have created all things, and for your PLEASURE they are and were created”.
PLEASURE: to be pleased satisfied and gratified with joy and happiness.
•Is God getting pleasure from the life that we are living?
•How does God get pleasure from the life we live?
1. Mark 12:30 Love God with all your Heart, Soul, Mind and Strength.
2. Proverb 3:5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and Mark 11:22 have faith in God.
3. Study and meditate God’s Word and praying with all prayers.
4. Giving God meaningful thanksgiving, praise and worship.
5. Obey God in all things by living by every Word of God.  
•For an inexhaustible list on how to live a life that gives pleasure to God you may consult with your Holy Bible from Genesis to Revelation. •Always let the Word of God be the standard for your life. Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be the glory.

TRANSFORM FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT

Why would you be delivered from something or someone and go back into Tue same mess,come and shake yourself loose from the shackles of darkness.
LISTEN:
“He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins”.
{Colossians 1:13-14}
When we are transformed from darkness to light,our status changes,from nobody to somebody ,from outcast to royalty,and God says,

“But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;As 1 Peter 2:9 tells us.
THEREFORE : As children of God.
“You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lamp stand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.
[ Matthew 5:14-16 ]

REWARDS FOR FAITHFULNESS

Therefore the Lord hath recompensed me according to my righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eye sight. With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful, and with the upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright. With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt shew thyself unsavoury. And the afflicted people thou wilt save: but thine eyes are upon the haughty, that thou mayest bring them down. For thou art my lamp, O Lord : and the Lord will lighten my darkness. For by thee I have run through a troop: by my God have I leaped over a wall. As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him. For who is God, save the Lord ? and who is a rock, save our God? God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect.《2 Samuel 22:25‭-‬33 》

Truly, this only I have found: That God made man upright, But they have sought out many schemes.”
[Ecclesiastes 7:29]

The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness; According to the cleanness of my hands He has recompensed me. For I have kept the ways of the Lord , And have not wickedly departed from my God. For all His judgments were before me, And I did not put away His statutes from me. I was also blameless before Him, And I kept myself from my iniquity. Therefore the Lord has recompensed me according to my righteousness, According to the cleanness of my hands in His sight. With the merciful You will show Yourself merciful; With a blameless man You will show Yourself blameless; With the pure You will show Yourself pure; And with the devious You will show Yourself shrewd. For who is God, except the Lord ? And who is a rock, except our God? It is God who arms me with strength, And makes my way perfect. He makes my feet like the feet of deer, And sets me on my high places. He teaches my hands to make war, So that my arms can bend a bow of bronze. You have also given me the shield of Your salvation; Your right hand has held me up, Your gentleness has made me great. You enlarged my path under me, So my feet did not slip. Therefore I will give thanks to You, O Lord , among the Gentiles, And sing praises to Your name.
{Psalms 18:20-26, 31-36, 49 }
There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was  Job; and that man was blameless and upright, and one who feared God and shunned evil. Then the Lord said to Satan, “Have you considered My servant Job, that there  is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, one who fears God and shuns evil?” {Job 1:1, 8 }.
There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the division of Abijah. His wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth. And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
[Luke 1:5-6]
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
{Romans 12:1-2}

A GOOD MAN

And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.{Genesis 2:18 }

“A GOOD MAN IS HARD TO FIND” was the name of a play. That statement is not true, because it all depends on what you are looking for, who you are looking for, and most importantly who you are looking to for this good man. When you begin your search, who do you go to and where do you go? If you want a house you go to a realtor, or a car you go to the dealer. So if you want a good man why not go to the One who creates and manufactures good men, the One who knows their hearts. You don’t know what they look like, because you can’t see their hearts.

The problem with society we look and judge people by their outward appearance, while God by-passes all that and looks at the heart and mind of a person ( 1 Samuel 16:7 & Psalms 7:9). That’s one of the reasons why we have so many divorces. We are looking with lustful eyes, and lust thirsty flesh, then when we wake up to reality, we are trapped with babies, bills, and sometimes diseases, or headaches, heartaches, and strife, when all we had to do was go to the source(God) from the start and wait for confirmation regarding the individual and relatonship. That’s the reason most of us are in a mess, we are always in a hurry to hit the sack or get married, without consulting our Creator.

“The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord.” So ladies did you put your order or request in to the Lord? Philippians 4:6 states, “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your request be made known unto God.”  So did you put your request in to God? This applies to both men and women who are seeking a God-fearing mate, a righteous mate, a loving mate, a kind mate, and a good mate. Don’t request a mate from your friends or family, most of them can’t even choose for themselves much less you, and they can’t see the heart or intent of a person, but God can. Why don’t you try Him(God) for a change.

A good man will never leave or forsake you, because his steps are ordered by the Lord. Read it for yourself, Psalm 37:23-24 says it clearly, “The steps of a good man is ordered by the Lord, and He (God) delights in his way; though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down, for the Lord upholds him with His hand.” There it is, as plain as day, what more can I say, that scripture says it all.
A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.
《Matthew 12:35 》

However, I must inform you that this promise is only for those who serve, love, and trust Him(God) with all their heart. You will not get a good man if you don’t put God first, because if you are going to replace God with a good man, then a good man will be very hard to find, but I can guarantee that the devil will have plenty no good ones for you.

One thing you must understand, a good man does not lure you into his nest with the trinkets of the world like money, jewelry, clothes, etc. You will be attracted to him because of his love for God, and if he follows Jesus’s examples, acknowledge God in all his ways, one who prays without ceasing, who walks by faith and not by sight, then trust me he will love you as he loves himself, because he is following the Masters order and plans. The question is can you handle a good man? Can you love him as he loves Christ, without wanting to replace God? Listen up and hear me well, because he is committed to God he will be committed to you, because he is faithful to God, he will be faithful to you. Because he has to answer to God, and that whipping he can’t handle.

If you are looking for someone to satisfy your earthly desires and selfish needs and wants, then don’t ask or look to God for a man, just continue looking in the world, the devil has a few choices lined up for you, which will take you straight to hell with them. No, I am not being harsh or bitter it’s the truth. If you are not serving God, or committed to Him by presenting your bodies as living sacrifices that is Holy and acceptable unto Him, which is your reasonable service (Romans 12:1-2); Then don’t waste your time or bother to ask Him for anything, because only the effectual fervent prayers of the righteous availed much (James 5:16 b), is this you? A righteous person?

However, you can change your status with God by accepting His priceless and best gift of all eternity; His only begotten son Jesus( John 3:16), and confessing with your mouth that He is the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in thine heart, that God has raised Him from the dead thou shalt be saved (Romans 10:9-13). Are you interested? Then let’s get started. Go to the top of this blog, click on to the salvation page, and follow the instructions, it will be the best man you ever find, who was willing to die for you, then you will find an earthly one who will do the same for you, because God sent him.

Now unto Him who is able to keep us from falling and to present us faultless, before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, to the only wise God, our Savior, be glory, praise, honor and thanks for using me to deliver His message to His children. May He give everyone the spiritual necessities to receive His messages and act accordingly. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.

ARE YOU FAITHFUL or FAITHLESS

To please God you must have faith in Him. The question is? How much faith do you have? How much faith do you need?
And he saith unto them, “Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.” As Matthew 8:26 says.

And the apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith.” So the Lord said, “If you have faith as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be pulled up by the roots and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.” {Luke 17:5-6 }.

But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.{Hebrews 11:6 }

Then Jesus answered and said, “O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him here to Me.”  So Jesus said to them, “Because of your unbelief; for assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.  However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.”
{Matthew 17:17, 20-21}

So Jesus answered and said to them, “Assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but also if you say to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ it will be done. And whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.”
[Matthew 21:21-22]

Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. -Hebrews 10:23

For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not before God. For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.” Now to him who works, the wages are not counted as grace but as debt. But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness, Therefore it is of faith that it might be according to grace, so that the promise might be sure to all the seed, not only to those who are of the law, but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all (as it is written, “I have made you a father of many nations”) in the presence of Him whom he believed—God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did; who, contrary to hope, in hope believed, so that he became the father of many nations, according to what was spoken, “So shall your descendants be.” And not being weak in faith, he did not consider his own body, already dead (since he was about a hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah’s womb. He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God, and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform. And therefore “it was accounted to him for righteousness.” Now it was not written for his sake alone that it was imputed to him, but also for us. It shall be imputed to us who believe in Him who raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead, who was delivered up because of our offenses, and was raised because of our justification. {Romans 4:2-5, 16-25}

ANOTHER part of Faith that’s critical is faithfulness to God,so that you will hear Him say, “Well done though good and faithful servant,” because you use your grain of faith for His gain.
“So he who had received five talents came and brought five other talents, saying, ‘Lord, you delivered to me five talents; look, I have gained five more talents besides them.’ His Lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your Lord.’ He also who had received two talents came and said, ‘Lord, you delivered to me two talents; look, I have gained two more talents besides them.’ His Lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your Lord.’ “Then he who had received the one talent came and said, ‘Lord, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you have not sown, and gathering where you have not scattered seed. And I was afraid, and went and hid your talent in the ground. Look, there you have what is yours.’ “But his Lord answered and said to him, ‘You wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered seed. So you ought to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I would have received back my own with interest. Therefore take the talent from him, and give it to him who has ten talents. ‘For to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away. And cast the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
{Matthew 25:20-30}

DON’T FORGET HIS BENEFITS

Blessed be the Lord, Who daily loads us with benefits, The God of our salvation! Selah
(Psalms 68:19 ).
Bless the Lord , O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name! Bless the Lord , O my soul, And forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases, Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies, Who satisfies your mouth with good things, So  that  your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.(Psalms 103:1-5)
Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.{2 Peter 1:2-4}.
