4 Delight thyself also in the LORD; and HE shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in HIM; and HE shall bring it to pass.

6 And HE shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.

7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for HIM: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.

8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.

Psalm 38

21 Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me.

💥 John 14 (Reading through the Bible)

 

 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in Me (The Word).

² In My Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

³ And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto Myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

⁴ And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.

⁵ Thomas saith unto Him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?

⁶ Jesus saith unto him, I (The Word) am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me (The Word).

(THE WORD is the way, the truth, the life.  Several months ago, I printed testimonies given by people in our church group.  The one thing in common is when they were truly born again, they had a great desire to read Bible and to learn of God ... going to God through The Word.")

⁷ If ye had known Me (The Word), ye should have known My Father also: and from henceforth ye know Him, and have seen Him.

⁸ Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.

⁹ Jesus saith unto Him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known Me, Philip? he that hath seen Me (The Word) hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?

¹⁰ Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of Myself: but the Father that dwelleth in Me, He doeth the works.

(The Father said:  Let there be light.   THE WORD created light.  But it was God who said it.  God and the WORD are one.)

¹¹ Believe Me that I (The Word) am in the Father, and the Father in Me: or else believe Me for the very works' sake.

¹² Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto My Father.

¹³ And whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

¹⁴ If ye shall ask any thing in My name, I will do it.


***

¹⁵ If ye love Me (The Word), keep My commandments.

¹⁶ And I will pray the Father, and He shall give you another Comforter, that He may abide with you for ever;

¹⁷ Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth Him not, neither knoweth Him: but ye know Him; for He dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

¹⁸ I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

¹⁹ Yet a little while, and the world seeth Me no more; but ye see Me: because I live, ye shall live also.

²⁰ At that day ye shall know that I (The Word) am in My Father, and ye in Me, and I in you.


***

²¹ He that hath My commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth Me: and He that loveth Me shall be loved of My Father, and I will love him, and will manifest Myself (The Word) to him.

²² Judas saith unto Him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that Thou wilt manifest Thyself unto us, and not unto the world?

²³ Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love Me, he will keep My words: and My Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.  

²⁴ He that loveth Me not keepeth not My sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent Me.

²⁵ These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.

²⁶ But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in My name, He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

²⁷ Peace I (The Word) leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

***

28 If ye loved Me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for My Father is greater than I.

²⁹ And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.

³⁰ Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in Me.

³¹ But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave Me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.

1.  I know that my Redeemer lives
And ever prays for me;
A token of His love He gives,
A pledge of liberty. 

2.  I know that my Redeemer lives,
A quick’ning Spirit He;
I know eternal life He gives—
Amazing grace—to me.

3.  I find Him lifting up my head;
He brings salvation near;
His presence makes me free indeed,
And He will soon appear.

4.   He wills that I should holy be:
What can withstand His will? 
The counsel of His grace in me
He surely shall fulfill.

5.  Jesus, I hang upon Thy word:
I steadfastly believe
Thou wilt return and claim me, Lord,
And to Thyself receive.

Scriptures pertaining to this hymn:

v. 1   I know that my Redeemer lives
And ever prays for me;

Hebrews 7:25   Wherefore HE is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by HIM, seeing HE ever liveth to make intercession for them.

Romans 8:24-34    For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?   But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.

Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 

And HE that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because HE maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. 

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

For whom HE did foreknow, HE also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of HIS Son, that HE might be the firstborn among many brethren.

Moreover whom HE did predestinate, them HE also called: and whom HE called, them HE also justified: and whom HE justified, them HE also glorified. 

What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? 

He that spared not HIS own Son, but delivered HIM up for us all, how shall HE not with HIM also freely give us all things?

Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth. 

Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, WHO is even at the right hand of God, WHO also maketh intercession for us.

***

v. 2  I know that my Redeemer lives,
A quick’ning Spirit He;


John 14:26  But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in MY name, HE shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

 John 16:13  Howbeit when HE, the Spirit of truth, is come, HE will guide you into all truth: for HE shall not speak of HIMSELF; but whatsoever HE shall hear, that shall HE speak: and HE will shew you things to come.

***

v. 3  His presence makes me free indeed,
And He will soon appear.

Ephesians 1:12-14 ...  That we should be to the praise of HIS glory, who first trusted in Christ.  In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,  Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of HIS glory.

John 8:31-32   Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on HIM, If ye continue in MY word, then are ye MY disciples indeed;  And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

I Thessalonians 4:13-18   But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep (dead), that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. 

For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep (die) in Jesus will God bring with Him. 

For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent (precede)  them which are asleep (dead). 

For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 

Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.


Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

***

Job 19:25   For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that HE shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:

💥 John 13 (Reading through the Bible)

 

Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that His hour was come that He should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved His own which were in the world, He loved them unto the end.

² And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray Him;

³ Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He was come from God, and went to God;

⁴ He riseth from supper, and laid aside His garments; and took a towel, and girded Himself.
⁵ After that He poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith He was girded.

⁶ Then cometh He to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto Him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?

⁷ Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.

⁸ Peter saith unto Him, Thou shalt never wash my feet.

Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with Me.

⁹ Simon Peter saith unto Him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.

¹⁰ Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all.
¹¹ For He knew who should betray Him; therefore said He, Ye are not all clean.

¹² So after He had washed their feet, and had taken His garments, and was set down again, He said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?
¹³ Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.
¹⁴ If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.
¹⁵ For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.

¹⁶ Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.

¹⁷ If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.

¹⁸ I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with Me hath lifted up his heel against Me.

¹⁹ Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am He.

²⁰ Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth Me; and he that receiveth Me receiveth Him that sent Me.

²¹ When Jesus had thus said, He was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray Me.

²² Then the disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom He spake.

²³ Now there was leaning on Jesus' bosom one of His disciples, whom Jesus loved.

²⁴ Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, that he should ask who it should be of whom He spake.

²⁵ He then lying on Jesus' breast saith unto Him, Lord, who is it?

²⁶ Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when He had dipped the sop, He gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.

²⁷ And after the sop Satan entered into him.

Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly.

²⁸ Now no man at the table knew for what intent He spake this unto him.
²⁹ For some of them thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy those things that we have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor.

³⁰ He then having received the sop went immediately out: and it was night.

³¹ Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in Him.
³² If God be glorified in Him, God shall also glorify Him in Himself, and shall straightway glorify Him.

³³ Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek Me: and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say to you.
³⁴ A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

³⁵ By this shall all men know that ye are My disciples, if ye have love one to another.

³⁶ Simon Peter said unto Him, Lord, whither goest thou?

Jesus answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow Me now; but thou shalt follow Me afterwards.

³⁷ Peter said unto Him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for Thy sake.

³⁸ Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for My sake? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied Me thrice.

💥 Podcast: Part 1: Psalms of David. (Prayers of David)

 

(This podcast was previously published on, November 30, 2021) 

 

Psalms are prayers.

David was no stranger to trouble.

Saul fought against David during the early years of David's life.

After David's sin against Uriah and Bathsheba, God raised up one of David's own house, Absalom, David's son, to fight against David in the later years of David's life.

David was also a man after God's own heart.

We can all relate to these prayers spoken by David.

Some of the great psalms of David, prayers of David, are as follows:

💥💥💥

Psalm 23

1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

(Because I follow HIM and HE is leading me, I shall not want.)

2 HE maketh me to lie down in green pastures: HE leadeth me beside the still waters.

3 HE restoreth my soul: HE leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for HIS name's sake.

4 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.

5 THOU preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: THOU anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

6 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.

💥💥💥

Psalm 51   

(A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came unto him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba, and had Uriah her husband killed in battle.  II Samuel 11-12) 

1 Have mercy upon me, O God, according to THY lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of THY tender mercies blot out my transgressions.

2 Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.

3 For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.

4 Against THEE, THEE only, have I sinned, and done this evil in THY sight: that THOU mightest be justified when THOU speakest, and be clear when THOU judgest.

5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.

6 Behold, THOU desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part THOU shalt make me to know wisdom.

7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which THOU hast broken may rejoice.

9 Hide THY face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.

10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

11 Cast me not away from THY presence; and take not THY holy spirit from me.

12 Restore unto me the joy of THY salvation; and uphold me with THY free spirit.

13 Then will I teach transgressors THY ways; and sinners shall be converted unto THEE.

14 Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, THOU God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of THY righteousness.

15 O Lord, open THOU my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth THY praise.

16 For THOU desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: THOU delightest not in burnt offering.

17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, THOU wilt not despise.

18 Do good in THY good pleasure unto Zion: build THOU the walls of Jerusalem.

19 Then shalt THOU be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon THINE altar.

💥💥💥

Psalm 3

(A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. II Samuel 17)

1 LORD, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.

2 Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. 

3 But THOU, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.

4 I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and HE heard me out of HIS holy hill. 

5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.

6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.

7 Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for THOU hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; THOU hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.

8 Salvation belongeth unto the LORD: THY blessing is upon THY people.

² There they made Him a supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with Him.

³ Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped His feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment.

⁴ Then saith one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, which should betray Him, ⁵ Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor?

⁶ This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.

⁷ Then said Jesus, Let her alone: against the day of My burying hath she kept this.

⁸ For the poor always ye have with you; but Me ye have not always.

⁹ Much people of the Jews therefore knew that He was there: and they came not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom He had raised from the dead.

¹⁰ But the chief priests consulted that they might put Lazarus also to death; ¹¹ Because that by reason of him many of the Jews went away, and believed on Jesus.

¹² On the next day much people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,  ¹³ Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet Him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord.

¹⁴ And Jesus, when He had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written, ¹⁵ Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass's colt.

¹⁶ These things understood not His disciples at the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then remembered they that these things were written of Him, and that they had done these things unto Him.

¹⁷ The people therefore that was with Him when He called Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from the dead, bare record.

¹⁸ For this cause the people also met Him, for that they heard that He had done this miracle.

¹⁹ The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Perceive ye how ye prevail nothing? behold, the world is gone after Him.

²⁰ And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship at the feast:

²¹ The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus.

²² Philip cometh and telleth Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus.

²³ And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified.

²⁴ Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.

(When we die to self will and do what we hear from God, even when we know they will likely hate us for what we say when we say God told us this, we lay down our lives for that Word we have heard from God.)

²⁵ He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.

²⁶ If any man serve Me, let him follow Me (The Word); and where I am, there shall also My servant be: if any man serve Me, him will My Father honour.

²⁷ Now is My soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save Me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.

²⁸ Father, glorify Thy name (The Word). 

Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.

²⁹ The people therefore, that stood by, and heard it, said that it thundered: others said, An angel spake to Him.

³⁰ Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because of Me, but for your sakes.

³¹ Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.

³² And I (The Word), if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto Me.

³³ This He said, signifying what death He should die.

³⁴ The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man?

³⁵ Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth.

³⁶ While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. 

These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide Himself from them.

³⁷ But though He had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on Him:
³⁸ That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?

³⁹ Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again,
⁴⁰ He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.

⁴¹ These things said Esaias, when he saw His glory, and spake of Him.

⁴² Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on Him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess Him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue:

⁴³ For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.

⁴⁴ Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on Me, believeth not on Me, but on Him that sent Me.

⁴⁵ And he that seeth Me seeth Him that sent Me.

⁴⁶ I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on Me (The Word) should not abide in darkness.

⁴⁷ And if any man hear My words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.

(The first coming of Jesus was to save the world. The next coming of Jesus will be to judge the world.)

⁴⁸ He that rejecteth Me, and receiveth not My words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

⁴⁹ For I have not spoken of Myself; but the Father which sent Me, He gave Me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.

⁵⁰ And I know that His commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto Me, so I speak.
