HOLY GOD'S LOVE AND PLANS FOR EACH AND ALL!!!! www.galileebreeze.blogspot.com

"Now it came to pass, in the days when judges led Israel, that there was a famine in the land...and a certain man of Bethlehem (his name was Elimelech);  He and his wife (Naomi), and their two (2) sons moved to another country called Moab....then Elimelech died; and Naomi was left with her two sons...Naomi's two sons took wives from Moab;...then both of her sons died.  So Naomi survived both her sons, and her husband. (Ruth 1:1-5/The Living Bible).

Naomi decided to return to Israel with her two (2) daughters-in-law (Orpah and Ruth), for she heard that the LORD had blessed Israel by giving them good crops again.  

But after they began their journey, Naomi changed her mind and said to Orpah and Ruth, 'why don't you return to Moab?'...she spoke kindly to them...                                                                                                  From The footnote: "Kindly" translated from the Hebrew word "hesed" carries the idea of love and loyalty---a Covenant of Constancy.  Naomi knows  YAHWEH (The LORD)'S character and prayed that Orpah and Ruth will experience HIS Goodness, that HE is Kind and Trustworthy.

"Orpah and Ruth said to Naomi: 'We will return with you to your people...they lifted up their voices and wept...Orpah  kissed Naomi...and Ruth CLUNG to Naomi and embraced Naomi.  Ruth said to Naomi 'urge me NOT to turn back from following you; for where you go, I will go, wherever you lodge-I will lodge; your people will be my people, and your GOD will be my GOD.'" (Ruth 1:1-16).

So Naomi returned to Bethlehem, and Ruth with her.  (****Yes, THIS Bethlehem---where generations later JESUS was born.****).  So Ruth said to Naomi...'Please let me go to glean the grain after him in whose sight I may find favor.'  Naomi said to Ruth, 'Go, my daughter.'

Ruth went and gleaned in the field after the reapers.  And she HAPPENED to come into the part of the field that belonged to Boaz who was of the family of Elimelech (Naomi's deceased husband). When Boaz came to the field of grain, he spoke to Ruth: 'Listen, my child, stay right here to glean; don't think of going to any other field. Stay right behind my women workers.  I have warned the young men to not bother you...help yourself to the drinking water."

Ruth thanked him warmly: 'How can you be so kind to me?  You must know that I am only a foreigner.'  Boaz replied, 'Yes I know, and I also know about all the love and kindness you have given to your Mother-in-law...and that you have come to live among strangers.  May the LORD GOD of Israel, under Whose wings you have come to take refuge, Bless you for it.'"

Ruth answered, 'O thank you sir. You are so kind to me, and I am not even one of Your workers'...so Ruth worked there all day...and she gleaned a great amount of grain!  She carried it to Naomi with what was left from her lunch.

'So Much!!!!' Naomi exclaimed!  'Where did you glean today?  Praise the LORD for whoever was so kind to you!'  Ruth told her all about it, and mentioned that the owner of the field was Boaz.  Naomi said, 'Praise the LORD for a man like that!  GOD has continued HIS kindness to us!  That man Boaz is one of our closest relatives...our Kinsman-Redeemer!'  [Just as JESUS is to all who follow HIM!!!].

So Boaz (her Kinsman-Redeemer) became Ruth's husband!!!!  Through Boaz's and Ruth's son "Obed" they became ancestors in the tribe of Judah...which is the tribe from which King David, AND our HOLY LORD JESUS CHRIST descended!!!! !!!!                                   (The name "Obed" means "Worshiper").

What should You and I GLEAN from this GOD'S WORD???? ????

A. No matter Where your life began----in submiting to GOD through JESUS CHRIST---with HOLY GOD'S plan of redemption -''We come into GOD'S family!!!!" (Ruth 4:16-22/Living Bible).

B. "The book of Ruth enobles the Beauty of Commitment and underscores the Values of family Commitment. (From the Foreword to the Book of Ruth/NEW KING JAMES BIBLE).       

JESUS says in John 16:13---"HE (the Holy Spirit) will guide you into all Truth."                                                                                                JESUS says in John 14:6---"I AM the way, the truth, and the life.  No one comes to the FATHER (in heaven) except through ME," 

"Blessed be the GOD and FATHER of our LORD JESUS CHRIST, THE FATHER of Mercies and GOD of all comfort, consolation, and     encouragement." (2 Corinthians 1:3/Amplified Bible).

****PRAYER...PRAISE...WORSHIP...UNTO GOD LEAD TO... PEACE, REST, JOY, AND THANKSGIVING AND VICTORY IN LIFE!!!!!!!!

PRAYER, PRAISE, WORSHIP, GIVING THANKS TO GOD... ALL BEGIN WITH "A"???

Oh GOD our Heavenly FATHER - So Gracious and Merciful and Loving---YOU  give to us gifts that display YOUR Character ---           because "...everything that is Truly Good comes from YOU!!!!!!!!       (James 1:17).

When I have difficulty going to sleep, or when I am waiting for someone...GOD has given to me a way to use that time for HIS Glory, and to  Bless others!!!...

"Beginning with "A"???

A. "Amen"---used most often to end prayer (meaning -  "I agree, let it be   so!"  Also to end the "Blessing" before eating a meal.

"Amen" is actually one of the Names of JESUS CHRIST!!! In (2 Cor-  inthians 1: 20):  "For the SON OF GOD , JESUS CHRIST...for all the  promises of GOD in HIM are Yes, and  in HIM, AMEN, to the Glory of GOD through us."

B. In (John 1:29), John the Baptist says "Behold the LAMB of GOD WHO takes away the sin of the world"!

C. CHRIST - the Greek translation of MESSIAH!  Also, JESUS is coming back for those of us who have accepted HIM as Savior and LORD.  

D. HOLY GOD, HIS SON JESUS is not a distant deity.  HE is the One True GOD---Who chooses to live in our hearts when we ask HIM to!!!  "They are the excellent ones in whom is My delight."             (Psalm 16:3).

E. GOD loves you/me/us with HIS "Everlasting love.." (Jeremiah 31:3).  "The Eternal GOD is your refuge...and underneath are the         Everlasting arms."  (Deuteronomy 33:27).  *The word for "ever-        lasting can also be translated "Ever PRESENT".

F.  GOD is our Heavenly "Father...Forever...Faithful". (Ephesians 

1: 1-6/ 1 Timothy 2:13/Amplified Bible).

G. GOD is SO good that HE gave HIS ONLY SON to save us from our sins. (John 3:16).

H. GOD is "HOLY! HOLY! HOLY!" (Isaiah 6:3).  HE is "Here with us...and For us always." (Matthew 28:20/Psalm 1:39:1-12/Romans 8:  31).

I. "I AM WHO I AM" (Exodus 3:14).  JESUS says "I AM the resur-      rection and the Life." (John 11:25).

My personal experience: I have been doing this for several years...and it (HIS WORD) always calms me, strengthens my faith, and richly blesses me in ways unspeakable!!! (Ephesians 3:20).

Occasionally our Most Intimate FATHER GOD gives to me a New word for 1 of the 26 letters...and it is genuinely thrilling how it touches my heart - how intimate HIS love is (HE WHO knows my thoughts before I think them, my words before I say them - He wrote  down my every day before I was born, and He always has good plans  for me (Psalm 139:1-24/Jeremiah 29:11).

PLEASE, I Urge you, TRY this for two (2) weeks, and personally experience HIM for yourself!!!

++++PURE LIGHT++++ www.galileebreeze.blogspot.com

 In Exodus 26-27 we find Moses passing on GOD'S commandments      about how to make, and how to use, the items used in the tabernacle.  

In Exodus 27:20 He is giving the commandments for "The care of the   Lampstand." 

"And you shall command the children of Israel that they bring to you   PURE OIL of Pressed olives for the light to burn Continually."             ("JESUS is the Same yesterday, today, and forever."  (Hebrews 13:8).

From the Footnote under Exodus 27:20: "The oil to be burned in the lamp was symbolic of the Holy Spirit.  BEATEN olive oil, which was  the Best, was used in the tabernacle.  To obtain the oil,  olives were gently pounded in a bowl and the oil was extracted from the pulp."

I recall reading in a study about olives...that "..harvesting the olives    was accomplished by using poles to beat the limbs of the olive trees...  this caused the olives to fall to the ground,"

JESUS' limbs (arms, legs) head, and body were BEATEN: ("they struck HIM on the head...and they spat on HIM") (Mark 15:19).            "Pilate, wanting to gratify the crowd, delivered JESUS to them, after he had scourged HIM,..to be crucified." (Mark 15:15).

JESUS was Beaten/Whipped---                                                                Footnote for Matthew:27:26--- "A victim to be scourged was stripped  and tied to a whipping post.  Then he was beaten mercilessly with a    whip consisting of several leather thongs, each loaded with jagged pieces of metal or bone and weighted at the end with lead. Fragments  of flesh would be torn from the victims, some of whom did not survive the ordeal."

(JESUS)- "A man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief, HE was wounded for OUR transgressions, HE was crushed for OUR iniquities  ...the Chastisement NECESSARY for OUR peace was upon HIM, and by  HIS stripes We are healed."  (Isaiah 53:3-5).     

The place where JESUS was betrayed, and arrested---was named the Garden of Gethsemane.  "Gethsemane" means "OLIVE PRESS"---       a place where the oil was pressed out of the olives by CRUSHING the olives.

IN (JOHN 8:12) JESUS declares: "I AM THE LIGHT..."

"For GOD WHO said, 'let light shine out of darkness' (Genesis 1:3-4)  HE has shone in our hearts so as (to beam forth) the Light for the illumination of the knowledge of the MAJESTY and GLORY of GOD  (as it is manifest in the PERSON and is revealed) in the FACE of JESUS  CHRIST, the MESSIAH." (2 Corinthians 4:6/Amplified Bible).

So, what is to be our (Ongoing) response to this HIS WORD?

Let us confess our sins quickly, ask GOD for forgiveness, and repent...so that HIS PURE LIGHT shines through us.

JESUS says: "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and GLORIFY your FATHER IN HEAVEN>"            (Matthew 5:16).

AMEN.   

****BECOMING ONE****

JESUS PRAYS FOR ALL BELIEVERS.....                                                                     

"FATHER, the hour has come.  Glorify YOUR SON, that YOUR           SON also  may glorify YOU.  YOU have given HIM authority over         all flesh, that HE shall give eternal life to as many as YOU have         given HIM.

I have manifested (revealed) YOUR NAME to those whom YOU        have given ME out of the world.  They were YOURS, YOU gave them to  ME, and they have heard Your Word.

"Now they have known that all things which YOU have given ME      are from YOU.  For I have given unto them the words which YOU have  given Me, and they have received them, and have known surely that  I came forth from YOU; and they have believed that YOU sent ME.

"I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who believe in ME    through their word...that they may be one, as YOU, FATHER, are in ME, and I in YOU, that they also may be one in US, that the world      may believe that YOU sent ME.

"And the glory which YOU gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as WE are ONE. (John 17:1...22).

"I in them, and YOU in ME; ...that they may be made complete in one, that the world may know that YOU HAVE SENT ME, AND        HAVE LOVED THEM AS YOU LOVE ME." (John 17:23).

FATHER, I desire that they also whom YOU gave ME may be with ME where I AM, that they may behold MY glory which YOU have given  ME, for YOU have loved ME before the foundation of the world."        (John 17:24).

In this chapter (John 17) JESUS declares THREE (3) times that we are to be ONE IN HIM.                                                                                      ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  From the book "Numerics in Scripture" by E. W. Bullinger/Kregel Publications:                                                                                            "All things that are specially complete are stamped with the number three (3),  GOD'S attributes are three (3); Omniscience-(All-Knowing- Psalm 139:1-24).  Omnipresence - ("with us always" (Psalm 139:1-12/Matt. 28:20).   Omnipotence - "I am Almighty" (Genesis 17:1).  THREE Persons in the GODHEAD: FATHER, SON, HOLY SPIRIT. THREE    DENOTES Perfection."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE Vital Importance of gathering together:                                         "Then those who Revere (hold in AWE) the LORD spoke to one another, and the LORD listened and heard them; So a book of remembrance was written before HIM for those are reverent to HIM  and who meditate on HIS NAME.

"They shall be MINE says the LORD of HOSTS, on the day that I       make them MY special treasures.  And I will spare them as a man spares his own son who serves him." (Malachi 3:16-17).

"And let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering,      for HE WHO promised is faithful.  

"And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good        works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much more as the  DAY (of JESUS RETURNING) approaches." (Hebrews 10:23-24).

"O Righteous FATHER! The world has not known YOU, but I have known YOU; and these have known that YOU sent ME." (John 17:25).

O!!! That it may BE SO in our lives!!!!!!!!!       

 AMEN.   

"OUR HEAVENLY FATHER'S BEAUTIFUL, INTIMATE LOVE FOR US!!!

**** Please Read This Aloud ****

JESUS CHRIST - HE WHO "...upholds, maintains, guides, and propels the Universe by HIS Mighty Word of power." (Hebrews           1:1-3/Amplified Bible).

HE WHO Creates Beautiful Flowers with such Exquisite designs of     color and shape, And creates the Beautiful Butterflies that love the       flowers so---

May HE breathe on you the very breath that says: "I love You with my everlasting love...". (Jeremiah 31:3)...

"THE ETERNAL GOD Is your Refuge...and underneath are the            Everlasting Arms..."  (Deuteronomy 33:27).

"Who is like you, a people saved by the LORD, the Shield of the LORD."  (Deuteronomy 33:29).

The breath that says "I call you Friend". (John 15:15).

The breath that says: "It is Finished".  (John 19:30).

AS I went outside to give these thoughts back to GOD our Heavenly    Father...I saw a butterfly on the ground, walking--- I very gently picked  it up, and carried it to some beautiful flowers that were growing in the sunshine.

As I sat underneath the White Dogwood tree...exchanging these thoughts with our Heavenly Father...a breeze stirred the White              dogwood tree  -  causing a shower of white petals to Blanket me.

In (Revelation 22:2) "the leaves of the tree of life are for healing          and restoration..."

May this (HIS) word be for Your healing and restoration:

"I have called you by your name, You are Mine..."  (Isaiah 43:1).

"I am called "...a child of God..."  (John 1:12).

" I (Jesus) have called you 'Friend' ".  (John 15:15)

"I love you with My everlasting love..(Jeremiah 31:3).

"...in Me, you may have peace."  (John 16:33).

"JESUS CHRIST is the same yesterday, today, and forever."                  (Hebrews 13:8).

In the paragraph about the Butterfly (above)...The Hand that moved    the butterfly, placing it gently among the flowers in the sOnshine        is our Father God's hand... You are the butterfly...the breeze is the        Holy Spirit, JESUS says in (John 8:12): "I AM the light." 

Now, Please read it Two Times more!!!                                   

 

"SOUNDS OF MERCY, AND GRACE...AND..."

 Once while serving on a Christian Men's Retreat, I heard the Worship Leader singing the song "Amazing Grace".

That song begins with the beautiful and Holy Declaration: "Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me..." As I sang along with that song...the Holy Spirit prompted me to ask:  "Father, what were those Sweet Sounds?"  He answered me, giving to me understanding:  "Those 'Sweet Sounds' were music."...I said..."Music?!?!?".

In the music---the "percussion instruments" were (1) The HAMMER DRIVING the spikes through JESUS' wrists into the wooden cross; and, (2) The "Thump!" as the cross hit the bottom of the hole in the ground.  (That caused a very Painful "jerk" on JESUS' muscles as the cross came to a sudden halt when it hit the bottom of the hole,).

The "String Instruments" were the lashes of the whip that ripped and tore JESUS' back, sides, arms and legs!!!  

The lyrics (words) of the song were the seven (7) statements that JESUS made while HE was on the cross; plus what the thieves said as they hung on their crosses; plus the Roman soldier's Declaration: "Surely that is a Righteous Man."  JESUS' last statement was "It is Finished!!!". (John 19:30). (Please YOU! look for yourself by reading the New Testament to find the other six (6) things JESUS said while on the cross.

***From a footnote below John 19:30: "It is Finished - The Greek tense indicates that the work of redemption has been COMPLETED ONCE AND FOR ALL, AND it's results are ABIDING CONTINUOUSLY."*****

I Must insert another insight here that the HOLY SPIRIT gave to me just now: The sounds are Sweet to HIM---because HE ALREADY KNOWS the Sweet Sounds that we will sing to HIM for eternity in Heaven (because we accepted HIS sacrifice for our sins!).

Some Helpful definitions: 1) Grace = favor, kindness, affection, un-merited favor, un-deserved Blessings. (Zech. 12:10/2 Cor. 12:9).           (2) Mercy = unfailing love, tenderness, pity, love; active desire to remove distress. (Micah 6:8/Hosea 2:13/Romans 9:15).

There are many great Blessings---From Genesis 1:1-3 "In the beginning...Let there be light"...all the way through Rev. 22:20-21 "Surely I am coming quickly...The grace of our LORD JESUS CHRIST be with you all. Amen."

A partial list of "Sounds" of Grace and Mercy: 1) "...thus says the Lord Who created you..."I have called you by your name...you are Mine,"(Isaiah 43:1.  (2) "I have chosen you, adopted you, and accepted you as Mine in JESUS..." (Eph. 1:1-6). (3)  "I will have Mercy on (him/her) (Hosea 2:2-3).  (4) "The Lord bless you and keep you, the Lord make HIS face shine upon you, and be gracious to you; the LORD turn His smile upon you, and give you peace." (Numbers    6:23-26).  (5) "The Eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms." (Deu. 33:27).  (6) JESUS says "I am with you always." (Matt. 28:20). (7) "Because Your loving kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise You." (Psalm 63:3-4).  (8) "But YOU are Holy, you enthrone Yourself in the praises of Your people." (Psalm 22:3).  (9) "As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds His people.." (Psalms 125:2). (10) Bless the LORD, O my soul, and all that is in within me." (Psalm 103:1-2)  (11) "Fear not, for I am with you, I will hold your right hand." (Isaiah 41:1-3). (12) "I know the plans that I have for you...plans for you to give you a future and a hope."  (13) "Through the Lord's mercies we are not consumed, His compassions  fail not...they are new every morning, Great is Your faithfulness..." (Lamentations 3:22-25).  (14) "And Mary will bring forth a Son, and you shall call HIS NAME JESUS, fot HE shall save His people." (Matt. 1:21). (15) "Heaven and earth will pass away, but MY words will by no means pass away." (Mark 13:31).  (16) If you, then being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much More will your Heavenly Father give The HOLY SPIRIT to those who ask HIM."  (Luke 11:13). (17) "...HE, the SPIRIT of TRUTH, will guide you into all truth." (John 16:13).
