Jesus the Great I AM : Isaiah 40-44

Isaiah 40-44
43:10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have
chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he:
before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.
11 I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour.
12 I have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when there was
no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD,
that I am God.
13 Yea, before the day was I am he; and there is none that can deliver
out of my hand: I will work, and who shall let it?
14 Thus saith the LORD, your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel;
25 I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own
sake, and will not remember thy sins.

44:2 Thus saith the LORD that made thee, and formed thee...
3For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry
ground: I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine
offspring:


The scriptures make it clear. No need for interpretation here. The
Jesus by whose name and sacrifice of blood we are saved, is the Jehovah
of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. He is the God of Moses. As Jesus stated to
the pharisees, that immediately caused them great offense, "Before
Abraham was, I Am." Jesus is the Great I Am, the self existent Alpha and
Omega. God declares here in Isaiah, "Beside Me, there is NO saviour"."
This is God speaking, and he does not lie. He saves, he says, and he
delivers. He declares water upon them that are thirsty, a type of
baptism of water, and He will pour HIS SPIRIT, upon the generations to
come - the baptism of the Holy Ghost.
God's word is forever settled in heaven. Let the word of God be forever
settled in you and I.

"Beloved, I wish above all things that you may prosper and be in good
health, even as thy soul continually prospers" 1 John 3:2

Mission: Christmas Blessing

Peace & love everybody! I've been so excited it's been hard to contain myself regarding today's mission! I hope that after reading this post, you'll be as encouraged as I am now! Known by most today as "the last Stalinist country" and according to VOM, "one of the most repressive and isolated regimes in the world", North Korea needs our prayers, monetary support, and volunteers. It's even being reported that a holocaust is occurring there as I'm writing this! Christians are being tortured, killed, and having "experiments" run on them all because they testify that Jesus is their Lord. Read a short synopsis of what Persecution.com has to say about North Korea and check out their related links. Thanks to our family over at The Voice of the Martyrs, we will be able to encourage and support our North Korean brothers and sisters! With our donations of $50 we will be able to sponsor a package that will have hard-to-get essentials,

Earnestly contend for the Faith: Jude

Today's passage is Revelation 18-22, but here I am one book behind in Jude. I just wanted to spend some time in this one chaptered book. I love that the Word of God is LIVELY and ACTIVE, and, though never changing, it is always revealing. I got stuck on Jude verse 3. The words EARNESTLY and CONTEND, made me think, wow, we have to put up a fight for this thing. I read, and scribbled in my notebook as I went through. Here is what I wrote:

child logic: waitress vs. God

That sounds like something my 6 year old would say! Malachi 3:10-12 (King James Version) 10Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. 11And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts. 12And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts.
