Awesome Savior!
“…You did awesome things that we were not expecting,

they will not overflow you.
When you walk through the fire,

you are precious in My eyes,
honored,
because I love you…”

“Be Still My Soul”
Be still, my soul — the LORD is on your side!
Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain;
Leave to you God to order and provide.
In every change God faithful will remain.
Be still, my soul–Your best, your heavenly Friend
Through thorny ways, leads to a joyful end.
Be still my soul! Your God will undertake,
To guide the future as in ages past.
Your hope, your confidence let nothing shake;
All now mysterious will be bright at last.
Be still my soul!
The waves and winds still know,
The Christ who ruled them while He dwelt below.
“Be still my soul…”

“What Does God Require?”
“There is a generation that is pure in its own eyes, and yet is not cleansed from its filth.
There is a generation whose eyes are so haughty, whose eyelids are lifted up disdainfully.
There is a generation whose teeth are swords and whose molars are knives, to devour the poor from the earth and the needy from humanity.”
“What Does God Require?”
“He has told you, humanity, what is good, and what ADONAI is seeking from you:
Only to practice justice, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.“
Open your mouth on behalf of those unable to speak,
For the justice of all who are destitute.
Open your mouth,
judge righteously,
plead the cause of the poor and needy.”
Proverbs 30:12-14, Micah 6:8, Proverbs 31:8-9 TLV

Get away from Me, you workers of iniquity!” – Matthew 7:22

A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and A time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and A time to dance;
A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
A time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

“Love So Amazing, So Divine”
“When I survey the wondrous cross On which the Prince of Glory died
My richest gain I count but loss And pour contempt on all my pride

Though you have not seen Him, you love Him.
And even though you don’t see Him now, you trust Him…”

I know my Savior cares… O Yes, My Savior cares!”

“Like A Mighty Stream”
“The Bible verse that Dr. Martin Luther King quoted most often was Amos 5:24,
“But let justice roll down as waters and righteousness as a mighty stream.”
The prophet Amos was saying,
(As most of the Hebrew prophets were saying)
that what God wants is justice and right living rather than religious ceremonies for their own sake.”
Quote from: Steve Hollaway@Harbor Church
“What Does the Bible Say?…”
“Rescue those being dragged off to death,
Hold back those stumbling to slaughter.”
“If you say, “Look, we didn’t know this.”
Won’t He who weighs hearts perceive it?
Won’t He who guards your soul know it?
Won’t He repay each one according to his deeds?”
Partiality in judgement is not good.
Whoever tells the guilty, “You are innocent,”
People curse him
And nations revile him.
But for those who convict the guilty
There will be delight– good blessing will come upon them.”
-Proverbs 24:11-12 and 23-25 Tree of Life Version

“Why Things Happen As They Do”
“Why things happen as they do
we do not always know,
And we cannot always fathom
why our spirits sink so low.
We flounder in our dark distress,
we are wavering and unstable,
But when we’re most inadequate,
the Lord God’s always able-
For though we are incapable,
God is powerful and great,
And there’s no darkness of the mind that
God can’t penetrate…
And while He may not instantly
unravel all the strands
Of tangled thoughts that trouble us,
He completely understands-
And in His time, if we have faith,
He will gradually restore
The brightness to our spirits
that we’ve been longing for.
So remember there’s no cloud too dark
for God’s light to penetrate
If we just keep on believing
and have faith enough to wait.”
-Helen Steiner Rice

Amazing Grace
“Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost but now I’m found, was blind but now I see.
Through many dangers toils and snares, I have already come
His grace has brought me safe thus far, and grace will lead me home.”
“Amazing Grace” by John Newton
“Remember Me”
“And He took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.” Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.” Luke 22:19-20
There are many traditions, holidays, and ceremonies, that we observe and hold in remembrance, and many of them in the name of Christianity. We celebrate birthdays, and Christmas, Thanksgiving, and Easter, and that’s fine, they are special days, and it’s good to celebrate, but there is one thing that the Lord has asked us to observe, in remembrance of Him, and the sacrifice that He made to redeem us, saying, “Do this as oft as you will, in remembrance of me.” II Corinthians 11:25
As we remember the last supper today, we are also reminded of Christ’s sacrificial love for all of us…We are reminded of His tremendous suffering, and the price that He paid to save us, and that by His grace, through faith, we are saved.
Thank you, Lord Jesus.
Temple Cleansed
“In the Temple, He found the merchants selling oxen, sheep, and doves; also the moneychangers sitting there. Then He made a whip of cords and drove them all out…” – John 2:14-15
“Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me…”
This week, as I remember the events leading up to the crucifixion, I reflect on how Christ “cleansed the temple”of moneychangers and how, because of His love, and by His blood, we too can be made clean and renewed by His Holy Spirit.
“He Watches Over You”
“I will lift up my eyes to the mountains — from where does my help come?”
“My help comes from ADONAI, Maker of heaven and earth.
He will not let your foot slip.
Your keeper will not slumber.
Behold, the Keeper of Israel
neither slumbers nor sleeps.
ADONAI is your keeper. ADONAI is your shadow at your right hand.
The sun will not strike you by day, nor the moon by night.
ADONAI will protect you from all evil.
He will guard your life.
ADONAI will watch over your coming and your going
From this time forth and forever more.”
Psalm 121 –Tree of Life Version

My heart trusts in Him, and I am helped:
Therefore my heart greatly rejoices;

Psalm 28:7
“Hosanna, Please Save!”
It’s very timely, and interesting too, to know that the Hebrew word for Hosanna is Hoshiana which means “Please save!”
And so, this Palm Sunday, as we remember what Christ has done for us, we can again say:
“LORD please save!”
“Hosanna in the Highest!”
“Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the LORD!”
Matthew 21:9

No Power of Hell
“No guilt in life, No fear in death,
This is the power of Christ in me
From life’s first cry to final breath,
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell, no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand
Till He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand.”
Song- “In Christ Alone” – By Getty and Townsend – Sung by Adrienne Liesching
“Look and Live”
“Look unto Me and be saved all the ends of the earth.
For I am God and there is no other.”
Who foretold this from ancient time?
Who declared it of old?
Is it not I, ADONAI?
There is no other God and a Savior–
There is none beside Me!
Turn to Me, and be saved, all the ends of the earth.
For I am God — There is no other.”

You called my name
And I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness
Into Your glorious day!
Now Your mercy has saved my soul…Now Your freedom is all that I know.
The old made new, Jesus, when I met You!
You called my name, and I ran out of that grave.
Out of the darkness,
Into Your glorious day!

“Suit Up”
Put on the Armor of God
“Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power.
Put on the full armor of God, so that you are able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the worldly forces of this darkness, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in heavenly places.
Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you may be able to resist when the times are evil, and after you have done everything, to stand firm.
Stand firm then!
Buckle the belt of truth around your waist, and put on the breastplate of righteousness.
Strap up your feet in readiness with the Good News of shalom (peace).
Above all, take up the shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
Pray in the Ruach (Spirit) on every occasion, with all kinds of prayers and requests.
With this in mind, keep alert with perseverance and supplication for all the kedoshim (saints).”

From a Need to be Accepted
From the love of my own comfort
From the fear of having nothing
From a life of worldly passions
Deliver me O God,
From the need to be understood
And from a need to be accepted
From the fear of being lonely
Deliver me O God,
Deliver me O God,
And I shall not want, no I shall not want
When I taste Your goodness, I shall not want
When I taste Your goodness, I shall not want
From the fear of serving others
Oh, and from the fear of death or trial
And from the fear of humility
Deliver me O God,
And I shall not want

It’s the promise that in heaven God shall wipe all tears away.
No more sorrow, no more weeping, Peace and joy will hold full sway,
For beside life’s crystal river, God shall wipe all tears away.

Safe within the walls of jasper, God shall wipe all tears away.
O the joy of meeting Jesus, Mortal tongue cannot portray,
But we know when we behold Him, God shall wipe all tears away.”

O LORD my God, When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds Thy hands have made
I see the stars. I hear the rolling thunder
Thy power throughout the universe displayed
And when I think,
That God, His Son not sparing,
Sent Him to die
I scarce can take it in.
That on the cross, my burden gladly bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sin.
Then sings my soul, My Savior, God to Thee

but ADONAI delivers them out of them all.”
Psalms 34:18-19
Choose To Trust
Every penny bears the reminder, “In God We Trust” but for Job it was personal.
Job said, ” Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him.” – Job 15:13
Meaning, “Even if He kills me, I will die trusting in Him.” Proof of the trust in God that was rooted in Job.
No matter what. I choose to trust.
Trust in God.
What We Hope For
“Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.”
– Hebrews 11:1
Thanksgiving Hallelujah!

All of the glory belongs to You… All of the glory belongs to You
You deserve it, You deserve it, You deserve it, You deserve it
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
All the Glory, All the Honor, All the Praise!
You deserve it.
My Hallelujah belongs to You.”
Song- “You Deserve It” – by J.J. Hairston
Something Within
Have you that something, that burning desire?
Have you that something that never doth tire?
Oh, if you have it –that Heavenly Fire!
Then let the world know there is something within.
Something within me that holdeth the reins,
Something within me that banishes pain,
Something within me I cannot explain,
All that I know there is something within.
Hymn- “Something Within” By L.E. Campbell
“When My Knees Hit The Ground”
My heart beating, My soul breathing,
I found my life when I laid it down.
Upward falling, spirit soaring
I touch the sky when my knees hit the ground.
What treasure waits within Your scars.
The gift of freedom gold can’t buy.
I bought the world and sold my heart.
You traded heaven to have me again.
My heart beating, My soul breathing,
I found my life when I laid it down.
Upward falling, spirit soaring
I touched the sky when my knees hit the ground.
Find me here at Your feet again.
Everything I am, reaching out, I surrender.
Come sweep me up in Your love again,
And my soul will dance,
On the wings of forever.
Upward falling, spirit soaring,
I touch the sky when my knees hit the ground.
From “Touch The Sky“ -by Hillsong

Oh The Deep Deep Love of Jesus
Oh the deep, deep love of Jesus
Vast, unmeasured, boundless, free
Rolling as a mighty ocean
In its fullness over me
Underneath me, all around me
Is the current of Your love
Leading onward, leading homeward
To your glorious rest above…
Is the current of Your love
Leading onward, leading homeward
To your glorious rest above…
Oh, the deep, deep love of Jesus
‘Tis Heaven of Heavens to me
And it lifts me up to glory
For it lifts me up to Thee
Oh, the deep, deep love of Jesus
Spread His praise from shore to shore
How He loves us, ever loves us,
Changes never, nevermore
How He loves us, ever loves us,
Changes never, nevermore

I Do, Don’t You?
I know a great Savior, I do; don’t you? I live by His favor, I do; don’t you?
For grace I implore Him, I worship before Him, I love and adore Him, I do; don’t you?
I need Him to lead me, I do; don’t you? Heaven’s manna to feed me, I do; don’t you?
Whatever betide me, I need Him beside me, In mercy to hide me, I do; don’t you?
I love to be near Him, I do; don’t you? He speaks and I hear Him, I do; don’t you?
For me He is caring, The cross I am bearing, I love Him for sharing, I do; don’t you?
I want Him to use me, I do; don’t you; For service to choose me, I do; don’t you?
I want Him to bless me, To own and confess me, Completely possess me, I do; don’t you?
Hymn- “I Do, Don’t You?” by E.O. Exill and M. Miller

Then Jesus Came
“One sat alone beside the highway, begging,
His eyes were blind, the light he could not see;
He clutched his old rags, and shivered in the shadows,
Then Jesus came, and bade his darkness flee.
When Jesus comes, the tempter’s power is broken;
When Jesus comes, the tears are wiped away.
For He takes the gloom, and fills the life with glory,
And all is changed, when Jesus comes to stay.”
Hymn- “Then Jesus Came”, by Oswald Smith

Still
“Be still ,my soul; the LORD is on your side! Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain;
Leave to your God to order and provide… In every change, He faithful will remain.
Be still, my soul; your Best, your heavenly Friend,
Through thorny ways leads to a joyful end.
Be still, my soul; your God will undertake
To guide the future as He has the past.
Your hope, your confidence let nothing shake;
All now mysterious shall be bright at last.
Be still, my soul; the waves and wind still know
His voice who ruled them while He dwelt below.”
“Be Still My Soul”- hymn by J. Sibelius and K. Schlegel
Be Not Dismayed
Be not dismayed whate’er betide, God will take care of you;
Beneath His wings of love abide, God will take care of you.
God will take care of you,
Through every day,
O’er all the way;
He will take care of you,
God will take care of you.
No matter what may be the test, God will take care of you;
Lean weary one upon His breast, God will take care of you.
