πŸ’₯   Romans 8:14  For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

They say "Jesus is Lord".  They say they are Christians.  But are they led by the Holy Spirit of God? Have you seen this in them?  Do they really understand what you are saying or are they pretending?  Do they stare at you blankly, just waiting until you stop talking?  Or do they delight in the Word you speak from God?

Matthew 24:4-5  Jesus said:  Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in MY name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

πŸ’₯ The day of the Lord's vengeance

 
 Isaiah 34  

7 ... And their land shall be soaked with blood. 

8 For it is the day of the Lord's vengeance.

Luke 21  (Jesus says)

20 And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.

21 Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.

22 For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.

πŸ’₯ If something troubles me unnecessarily, I'm trying to eliminate that from my life.


(Comments by Joan Boney)

When I moved to Dallas in 1960 to teach at Kimball High School, the women in the teacher's lounge invited me to go with them on Saturday to the football game.  

I was shocked that anyone chose to do this when they didn't have to!  In college I was in band and they required us to go to the football games to perform in band at half time.  But they let us leave after the performance.  My friends and I joyfully left the game and went to the little cafe on campus where they sold hot blueberry pie!  It was great!

So I had never seen a football game until I moved to Dallas.  When these women invited me to join them. and I hesitated, one woman said, "It only costs $6.00."  (Another shock!  People paid to go to football games?)

... But I did join them.  And learned to be a football fan.  


πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

And a professional football team had just started up in Dallas and would be playing on Sundays and they invited me to go to that also ... and I went.  (Dallas Cowboys)  

And sometimes we went to the other professional team in Dallas, The Dallas Texans, (who later left Dallas and became the Kansas City Chiefs.)

Romans 12:2  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.

But in 1960 I wasn't born again.  I was born again in 1975.  

But I kept on going to football after I was born again, but when we began losing after the 1994 season, from time to time I would wonder why I was going through all the agony of the loosing seasons ... but there is always a hope for "next season.")

I really found winning to be a problem also for you sort of became "drunk" with winning ... when in reality it doesn't matter ... but it seemed to matter.  

(Many things are like that... they just don't matter but seem to matter.)

A strong delusion.  We can recognize it when the other people follow things that seem to matter but often we can't recognize our own personal delusions, though they often cause us trouble.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

The apostle Paul said:

* Prove all things; hold fast that which is good (I Thessalonians 5:21)

This year, I have become really serious over things that trouble me?  Why am I continuing to do this thing if it is not needful... if it really doesn't matter?

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

This week was the NFL draft where college players are chosen for the next football season.

(Pam is a Denver Bronco fan.)

We sat down to watch the draft.  (I rather dreaded it.)  It is such a big deal to fans.  They show up by the thousands to see what will happen.  They are football drunks, as I have been but now don't want to be.

The worst team from the previous season gets to choose first to try to help them get better so they can try better to beat the other teams. Then second worst team chooses ... on to the last team which is # 32.

Now days fans often dress up in costumes which represents their team and overall there is a carnival atmosphere.  (We didn't do that in the 1960 era.)

Reality:  As a fan you learn to hate the rival teams in your division and the teams that won over you last year.  Your really good coaches now coach for the rival team because they get more money or get to move to head coach.  This is a great problem!  Now there is something called "free agency" so your players can go to a rival team after their basic contract years if they choose to do so.  Often they leave and go to other team for more money.  The head coach who lost last year and didn't even get into the playoffs with the team, is still head coach for another year and you have to put up with this.  You complain but have no power.  So you learn to complain about the owner of the team who has the power to fire the losing head coach but often doesn't. Your team shows a little promise of winning, and sometimes wins and then starts losing.  Your better players get injured and can't play "the big game".  

And the worst thing of all is your team shows up for the big game and plays poorly because the losing coach from the previous season did not do what was needful to prepare the team and they selected the wrong players and plays ... again(Maybe they will fire him and get a good coach ... but that often doesn't happen for about 10 years or so.)

And the worst thing of all is ... "It doesn't matter."  but it seems to matter.

Another big problem ... the season ends ... now what do I do on Monday nights?

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

Many times I have wanted to quit football ... (usually this happens as the end of the season when my team lost ... if they win, that is another matter.  

(A real fan can't wait for next year where maybe you will win back to back super bowls ... that doesn't matter either but you think it does, as a fan.)

So you think about it on and off throughout the year!  And are often troubled.  And then are really troubled when the season actually begins!

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

I watch the faces of fans and know I've been there where they are!  It is really terrible.  I want out but then the season and all the fun begins again!

This year maybe I really can stop! ... I didn't look to see who the Cowboys drafted this year!  But I did notice our wonderful defensive coach in the team room of one of our rival teams at the draft for now he is head coach for our rival team (trouble)... wonder who replaced him as defensive coach for my team?

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

This year ... Maybe I can keep my focus on these scriptures which are truth!  (and do them!)

The apostle Paul says:

I Corinthians 6:12  All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

John 18:26  Jesus says: My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.

Colossians 3

1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with HIM in glory.

5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:

6 For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:

7 In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.

8 But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.

9 Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;

10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of HIM that created him:

And as I stopped the habit I had of watching evening TV news which troubled me ... stop other things which trouble me needlessly!

And pray for God to cleanse me from all unrighteousness:

Psalm 51:10  Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

For when I brush against the world, my heart and spirit are affected and I need help to remove spots and blemishes.  God always answers this prayer when I pray it!

For I really want to stay in the right Spirit of God and share right things with others who are of God!

I Corinthians 10:23  All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient (not suitable; not beneficial): all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.  (do not cause me to grow in ways of God.)

Galatians 5

1  Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.

19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft (living in superstitions), hatred, variance (fighting, quarreling debating against others), emulations (trying to win out over other people), wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯ Hebrews 12


1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before HIM endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

3 For consider HIM that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.

4 Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.

5 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of HIM:

6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom HE receiveth.

7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?

8 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?

10 For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but HE for our profit, that we might be partakers of HIS holiness.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

11 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.

12 Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;

13And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:

15 Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;

16 Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.

17 For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

18 For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,

19 And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more:

20 (For they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart:

21 And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:)

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

22 But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,

23 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,

24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.

25 See that ye refuse not HIM that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from HIM that speaketh from heaven:

26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now HE hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.

27 And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.

28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:

29 For our God is a consuming fire.

Psalm 1

1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

(scornful:  those who look down on other people and make fun of them, thinking themselves to be better than others)

2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in HIS law doth he meditate day and night.

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water (of the Word of God), that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

(A tree that drinks by the rivers of water will not be blown away by every puff of wind that comes his way.  That tree will not be shaken.  That tree will stay the course because he has deep roots that are hard to remove because he is continually nourished by the water of the Word of God.)

4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

(The ungodly will not be able to stand among the righteous.)

6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

9 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. 10 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

Psalm 139:7 Whither shall I go from Thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from Thy presence?

8 If I ascend up into heaven, Thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, Thou art there.

9 If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;

10 Even there shall Thy hand lead me, and Thy right hand shall hold me.

11 If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.

12 Yea, the darkness hideth not from Thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to Thee.

It is a great comfort to consider that God always knows all that pertains to us, no matter what the situation. Nothing that affects us is hidden from God.

For Thou, in Thy atonement
Didst give Thyself for me;
I own no other Master,
My heart shall be Thy throne,
My life I give, henceforth to live,
O Christ, for Thee alone.

Bearing on Calv’ry my sin and disgrace;
Such love constrains me to answer His call,
Follow His leading and give Him my all.
 
Living for Jesus wherever I am,
Doing each duty in His holy name;
Willing to suffer affliction and loss,
Deeming each trial a part of my cross.

Seeking the lost ones He died to redeem,
Bringing the weary to find rest in Him.

πŸ’₯ What do I want at this point in time?

 
Comments by Joan Boney:

As we see things get worse and worse in people and in the world and especially in churches today, what is there to cling to?  What do I want?

I can't think of any thing that I desire on this present earth.  God has freely given me all things to enjoy.  But there is nothing here that I desire.

Paul said:  

1 Timothy 6:8  And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.

At 86, God has placed me in a wonderful position where I get to live with another person who has the same type faith that I know.  That is really a blessing.

As I see the evil of this world and even of church groups, I am not discouraged for I know Jesus will come and take us to the new heaven and new earth.

I try to keep my heart and spirit through God so I can encourage others who have faith in God for there are times we all, even people of faith, need encouragement.

So I choose to reread the Bible and speak to the church encouraging them not to give up.  Jesus will send HIS angels and take us off this earth to the new heaven and new earth which God prepared for us.

The apostle John saw that new heaven and new earth wherein dwelleth "only" righteousness!  For Paul tells us in the Bible this world will get worse and worse.  You won't have righteousness here.  We look for righteousness in the new heaven and new earth.

2 Peter 3:13  Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

Revelation 21  (The new heaven and new earth)

1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.

2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

3And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and HE will dwell with them, and they shall be HIS people, and God Himself shall be with them, and be their God.

4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new.

And we must not allow our faith to be swept away by treacherous church people who fall away and begin to hope in this worldThey bring damnation on themselves and when we see this we must not be discouraged and pulled away into their damnation, for suicide is so foolish!  

Just keep praying, reading the Bible, and putting your hope in God.  

That will not fail you!

1 Woe to the rebellious children, saith the LORD, that take counsel, but not of ME; and that cover with a covering, but not of MY spirit, that they may add sin to sin:

2 That walk to go down into Egypt (the world), and have not asked at MY mouth; to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to trust in the shadow of Egypt!

3 Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.

1Cor 6:12 All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient (proper; necessary; suitable): all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

Nehemiah 8:9,10 
 
9 And Nehemiah, which is the Tirshatha, and Ezra the priest the scribe, and the Levites that taught the people, said unto all the people, This day is holy unto the Lord your God; mourn not, nor weep. For all the people wept, when they heard the words of the law. 
 
10 Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; FOR THE JOY OF THE LORD IS YOUR STRENGTH.

Psalm 96:1-7 
 
 O sing unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth. 
 
2 Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; shew forth his salvation from day to day. 
 
3 Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people. 
 
4 For the LORD is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods. 
 
5 For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens. 
 
6 Honour and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in his sanctuary. 
 
7 Give unto the LORD, O ye kindreds of the people, give unto the LORD glory and strength.

2 Peter 1

4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;

6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;

7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.

8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
