Have A Holy & Happy Christmas!

“A New Heaven and a New Earth. I saw a new heaven and a new earth, because the first heaven and earth had disappeared, and the sea was gone. Then I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, dressed like a bride ready for her husband. I heard a loud voice from the throne say, “God lives with humans! God will make his home with them, and they will be his people. God himself will be with them and be their God. ⁴He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There won’t be any more death. There won’t be any grief, crying, or pain, because the first things have disappeared.” ⁵The one sitting on the throne said, “I am making everything new.”” -Revelation 21:1-5

Tonight we celebrate the birth of Jesus. He gave us such amazing Gifts when He was born. Jesus built us a Bridge to the Father and gave us a way Home. A way to Heaven, the Garden of Eden. Tonight, the Light is born 🙂 A Light that will lead us Home.

And we know that we will once again live in the Garden of Eden A Garden of such astonishing beauty; we will be overwhelmed with how much God loves us. Swaying trees in a gentle breeze, flowers so beautiful that we can only stand amazed while their fragrance takes our breath away! And as the sunlight dances on the water, our eyes are truly able to see God’s Light for the first time :). So beautiful and peaceful that we just want to lay among the flowers and gaze at the water.

There will be mountains to climb and adventures to enjoy. We will see colors that astonish us. Beautiful colors that we have never seen before. And there will be work. Only it will be work that brings us joy! For there will be no fatigue or stress or the pull of needing to do more than one thing. There will be people that we love and that love us! And hugs, hugs that are deeper and last longer. Hugs that will be more…

In the Bible it says, “the leopard shall lie down with the young goat,
and the calf and the lion and the fattened calf together; and a little child shall lead them.” – Isaiah 11:6. And as the animals join us, we will be filled with joy, and we will laugh, for in Heaven there is no fear!

And we WILL eat :). The trees will be bursting with all kinds of fruit. We will have a seat at God’s Table:

” the Lord of hosts will make for all peoples a feast of rich food, a feast of well-aged wine, of rich food full of marrow, of aged wine well refined.” – Isaiah 25:6

Greatest of all, we will walk with God and we will never be separated from Jesus again!

Thank You Jesus 🙂

Israel Stands Alone

There is a verse in the Bible:

“I will bless those who bless you,
and whoever curses you I will curse;”-Genesis 12:3

The Jewish people are God’s Chosen People and He loves them in a special way. Jesus is Jewish.

God has Promised from the beginning that He will Bless those who Bless the Jewish people and curse those who curse the Jewish people. God ALWAYS keeps His Promises! What has America done?

Please pray that God’s Will is done for the Haredi in Israel and for America! For our day is coming!

The Holy Spirit: Our Comforter & Helper :)

“And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever, ¹⁷even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you.” – John 14:16

“From beginning to end, the Holy Spirit has always been active: In the beginning, creating, and at the end of the story, tending to us. He comforts us, helps us, guides us, reminds us, teaches us, comes along side us, counsels us, and intercedes and advocates for us. There is no area of life in which the believer does not need the help of the Holy Spirit.” – BibleStudyTools.com

We forget sometimes, just how much the Holy Spirit really can Help and Comfort us! Because Jesus loved us so, He asked the Father to send us the Holy Spirit. And because God knew that our lives on earth would sometimes be difficult; He sent the Holy Spirit to Comfort and Help us 🙂 .

But sometimes we forget just how much the Holy Spirit can Help and Comfort us. And sometimes, although we remember, we forget to ask the Holy Spirit for His Help and Comfort. But the Holy Spirit will Help us-if we just ask Him. Because He loves us too 🙂

Ask The Holy Spirit for Help, in Jesus’ Name, today. And He will 🙂

Have We Forgotten Who Truly Helped Us On September 11th?

I remember sitting at the kitchen table with my husband. We were still waiting to hear if my Aunts and Uncles and Cousins were safe in New York. We knew that some of them worked in the Twin Towers and many lived in New York. Both of my parents were from New York. Gradually, through the next few days we heard that they were safe.

I remember taking my son out of school and bringing him home so I knew he was at home. My daughter was already with me.

I remember watching the news with my husband and wondering if we had enough bottled water and food stored away for our children. We heard the military helicopters and planes overhead. (We lived in a suburb of Cleveland). We watched a lot of TV following September 11th!

And most of all, I remember praying. All the time. It really was the best and worst of times for this country. It was the biggest terrorist attack on U.S. soil, but it was also a time when the entire nation seemed to turn back to God. Christians songs played on the radio on every station. People throughout the country were praying, and not afraid to share that.

And we all knew, without a doubt that Jesus gave every single person in those Twin Towers a chance to go to Heaven.

We were united completely, as One Nation Under God. And we were not afraid to say so!

Fast forward around 20 years and our country has turned so far away from God, it’s hard to even bear witness! Are there people who truly love the Lord Jesus, absolutely! Thankfully, many have remembered that Faith and Family always come first!

But there is a large, growing number who have turned away from our Lord or they claim to Follow Jesus, but do not!

Will our nation turned back to our Lord? I don’t think so. At least, not as a nation. Like Franklin Graham, I believe those days are in the past.

And sadly one has only to look at those who have been elected in Washington to see what our nation has become.

Once upon a time, our nation was so greatly Blessed by God, but our nation has rejected God. Where once we returned God’s Love and put serving God first in our lives, that is no longer the case.

We were a nation based on Faith, Family & Freedom, but we are not now. There are still Americans who put Faith, Family & Freedom first, but our nation does not.

So what should we as Christians do? Pray for one another. Pray for the lost as well. And pray for those you love. Before it is too late!

There are those among the American people who can still be Saved. If they have turned away from our Lord Jesus, pray that they turn back-in time. Pray for their Salvation!

In Jesus’ Name,

We Need To Tell Each Other The Truth – In Love-God’s Truth!

“Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?”-Galatians 4:16

In Galatians 4:16, Paul is speaking to the Galatians. But he might as well be speaking to America.

Sadly, we have arrived to a place in our country in which people do not want to hear God’s Truths. Our nation has “itchy” ears. Many want to do as they wish and do, but not as God commands.

And many become angry when God’s Truths are spoken. They don’t want to be reminded; and when they are reminded, they feel guilty! And they should, for they ARE guilty of continuing and embracing their disobedience towards God’s Commands.

But the truth is, if we love someone, than we must share the truth-with love- with them. And Truth, by its’ very nature, has only ONE version. God’s version!

Jesus commanded us to:

“Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.” – Matthew 22:37-40

If we love one another ,we need to be honest with one another!

Can A Person Lose Their Salvation?

Perhaps they were never really Saved in the first place?

Sadly, some who thought they were Saved-were not. Sometimes God’s Seed falls on hard ground. Very hard!

Regrettably, the truth that no one wants to hear is that those who are not truly Saved, who refused to genuinely accept Christ’s Great Gift, even unto death, will not enter Heaven. And will suffer even more than someone who never thought they were Saved at all!

Jesus and the Gospel were given to them, but they failed to truly accept Christ’s Salvation!

So please, Prepare, Pray & Be Ready! Accept Christ Now!

Warning: “You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe-and tremble” !

“You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble!” – James 2:19

There isn’t really a debate if God is Real and it’s clear that there is only one God. Even the demons believe that! The real difference is who truly Follows Jesus. For if we truly accept Jesus and sincerely ask Him to be our Savior, we want to Follow Him. Which means we want to Follow God’s Word, which He gave us in the Holy Bible. The Real Holy Bible.

Because a number of countries are attempting to rewrite the Bible to support bad behaviors or their country’s actions, it is critically important that we memorize as many real Bible verses as we can.

This is also helpful as our children return to school, where so many of our children are pressured into a sinful life by their own teachers! The more Bible verses our children “hide in their heart”, the less influence these schools will have!

And please, Pray for all of the children who are returning to public schools. May Jesus protect them!

There is Power in the Name of Jesus. We need to teach our children to say His Name out loud whenever they are being pressured to believe or do something that is against God’s Word!

Here’s a great one to start with:

“I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you.” – Psalm 119:11

More On The Love Of God :)

Galatians 4 is not a book of the Bible that we talk of often, say as we do Isaiah or John…But it is an important book.

In the beginning, Galatians 4 talks of God’s Grace. On earth, there is a concept known as, “What goes around, comes around”. But this is not so for those of us who are children of God through our Faith in Jesus Christ. We do not have to “earn” our way to Heaven. We are Saved by Grace , through Faith alone 🙂

“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— ⁹not by works, so that no one can boast.”-Ephesians 2:8-9

Galatians 4 goes on to teach us that we are, through the great Sacrifice and Gift of Jesus Christ, the children of God. In Galatians 4:6, God refers to Himself as Abba. and Abba in Arabic means Daddy. So our Father God is not some far away Father who only cares about the “big” things of life. God is our Daddy, who cares about every, single, tiny thing in our lives. God cares about that which frightens or worries us and God cares about that which brings us happiness. God cares about it all.

And there is nothing too small for us to bring to our Daddy who loves us so!

God Loves Us :)

God loves us so much that He sent His only Son to Save us :).

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” -John 3:16

But even before that, God Loved us :). And Psalm 91 – tells us just how much:

My Refuge and My Fortress

91 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.
²I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.”

³For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler
    and from the deadly pestilence.
⁴He will cover you with his pinions,
    and under his wings you will find refuge;
    his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.
⁵You will not fear the terror of the night,
    nor the arrow that flies by day,
⁶nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness,
    nor the destruction that wastes at noonday.

⁷A thousand may fall at your side,
    ten thousand at your right hand,
    but it will not come near you.
⁸You will only look with your eyes
    and see the recompense of the wicked.

⁹Because you have made the Lord your dwelling place—
the Most High, who is my refuge—
¹⁰no evil shall be allowed to befall you,
no plague come near your tent.

¹¹For he will command his angels concerning you
    to guard you in all your ways.
¹²On their hands they will bear you up,
    lest you strike your foot against a stone.
¹³You will tread on the lion and the adder;
    the young lion and the serpent you will trample underfoot.

¹⁴“Because he holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him;
    I will protect him, because he knows my name.
¹⁵When he calls to me, I will answer him;
    I will be with him in trouble;
    I will rescue him and honor him.
¹⁶With long life I will satisfy him
    and show him my salvation.”

The Red Horse!

“And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see. And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.” – Revelation 6:3

While Praying the Rosary, I saw the Red Horse standing outside its’ stable. Ready!
