I HAD A DREAM...

I HAD A DREAM...WHO AM I?   WHOSE AM I?

Recently, Just before I awoke,I had a dream.  At first it was an unpleasant dream...(So, I thought "that dream is not from the LORD").

Let me recount for you the dream...                                                        (In the dream) I had been sent to the hospital to undergo some medical tests.  I found myself wandering around the hospital - in and out of rooms, walking through the halls; I even walked into the main office of the hospital---I was seeking ANSWERS to my QUESTIONS:

(A) "Where (geographically) is this hospital?"                                        (B) "What were the results of the medical tests?"                                  (C) "What would be next in my life---more tests?, surgery?, death?"

As I wandered through the hospital.....NO ONE would answer my questions...In Truth, NO ONE would even ACKNOWLEDGE my presence!!!  So when I awoke, NONE of my Questions had been answered.

As listed in the sub-title (above)---My first question was 'where am I?'

In current times (2021), we have "GPS" in our phones, our vehicles, etc.

In "Historical times"...(Before GPS), the primary point of information (for BOTH LOCATION and NAVIGATION) was the NORTH STAR.  Once a person could locate the North Star --- they could determine the direction of their travel.

Even in today's world, (for those of us on land); at about 12:00 noon -  if you face toward the sun -  you are looking toward the South.  Then to your right is West, to your left is East, and behind you is North.

When I arise in the morning, one of my first activities is to read/study the BIBLE.  As the FIRST part of my reading/studying GOD'S WORD, I declare to myself (speaking aloud) a **list* of GOD'S PROMISES for us whom have accepted JESUS CHRIST as our SAVIOR and LORD.

The Most Important of my questions is "WHO am I?  "WHOSE am I?"

(By GOD'S GRACE!!!)  I have accepted JESUS CHRIST as my SAVIOR and LORD ---Thus "THE LORD THE MOST HIGH GOD    is my FATHER!!!" (Genesis 14:22/Romans 8:15).

The "list" (mentioned above) is titled "I AM FATHER GOD'S happy/Blessed thought".  On this list, there are 9 Major answers to  ("Who am I? Whose am I?" Each one has several verses (and their location in the BIBLE):

1) "I am loved by my FATHER..."FATHER loves me with HIS everlasting Love" (Jer. 31:3/ Eph. 1:1-6).                                               2) I am pleasing in FATHER'S Eye...  "FATHER'S thoughts toward me are always good and filled with hope for me." (Jer. 29:11).             3) "I am ACCEPTED by my FATHER..."I have been adopted by FATHER GOD." (Eph. 1:5)./"I am called JESUS CHRIST'S friend."  (John 15:15).                                                                                             4)" I have Purpose in my FATHER".  I am a witness of GOD to the world," (Acts 1:8).                                                                                    5) "I am  Secure  IN my FATHER," "I am hidden with CHRIST IN       THE FATHER." (Col.3:3).                                                                       6) GOD is NOT ashamed of me". (Hebrews 11:16/Heb. 2:11).               7) "GOD has FORGIVEN me. (1 John 1:9).                                           8)"FATHER does NOT judge me". (John 5:22/John 3:16-18).               9)"I am a new creation in JESUS CHRIST." (2 Cor. 5:17).

So, we CANNOT rely on the North Star to know "WHO we are",           "WHERE we are", "WHAT is next", "WHERE  we are going...

WE CAN-WE WILL!!!!! rely on GOD MOST HIGH (Psalm 47:2)       WHO CREATED us, paid the HIGHEST POSSIBLE PRICE for           us  (John 3:16); and HE created ALL the stars...and put them in           their place. (Genesis 1:14-27).

"HE upholds, maintains, guides, and propels the UNIVERSE by           HIS Mighty Word of POWER." (Heb. 1:3/Amplified Bible).                 ***Y0U can get the ENTIRE list at Shilohplace.org/855-744-5641.

3 More Very Important TRUTHS:                                                            A) "All the promises of GOD--- in JESUS are "YES" and "AMEN",     to the Glory of GOD through us." (2 Cor. 1:20).                                     B) "HE (the HOLY SPIRIT) will guide you into all TRUTH".                (John 16:13)                                                                                           C) HOLY GOD says in (Jeremiah 29:11):       

" *****  I KNOW *** the plans that I have for YOU.....Plans               for GOOD...to give you a future and a hope".                                        

LET'S GO !!!!!!!!!
