Jesus was handed over to be crucified for the forgiveness of our sins
and was raised back to life to prove that he had made us right with God!
Romans 4:25 TPT
The wonders of God
Are you are not glad that His ways
Are not our ways
I am very glad, sometimes I don’t like it
So this week, it just been looking at wonders of the Lord
The testimonies of all
The growth of people
I love learning and so this week is learning week
Came to understand what Paul meant
In the Bible, the Book of Romans
Sometimes you want to do good
I know that I should do it
I have no doubt this is the right thing
My mind tells, the Holy Spirit nuge me
Scriptures come to my mind
Do I do it, NO
But I don’t understand why I do not do it
Yes, it is a nod, a shake in the head
I did it again, I sit in silence and sigh
Why? Yeh I guess I look at my Lord
I don’t understand, help me God
Not trying to justify
But something in me just would not let me
For I do what I hate and practice it
The flesh is weak and governed by the laws
The flesh is ruled by the laws
For the Lord our God died so that Grace abounds within me
Grace triumph over the laws
For He came not to abolish it
But to accomplish
So sometimes it happens
To teach us
To correct us,
To depend on Him
For His Grace is all we need
For I am dead to sin
And alive to God
For Christ said it is finish, the death
that He died, He died to sin once and for all
But the life that He lives, He lives to God
What a wonderful news
So I glorify the Name above all names
Wonders are what you do
Wonders are what I see daily
Wonders is seeing the sunrise in the morning
Feeling the breeze as I walk in the day
Wonders is seeing sunset in the evening
And the chill of the breeze in my bones
Wonders never stop in all things
Wonders is seeing a baby grow up
Wonders is knowing that I am the apple of Your eye
Wonders is knowing I am blessed
So I conclude this madness
The flesh is the flesh and will be the flesh
So I will not set my mind on the things of the flesh
For it is weak, that I have come to understand
Madness I tell, it is not easy and that is the fun of it
The Life with our Lord is challenging
I will not lean on my own understanding
I will set my eyes on You Lord
For in You I have received the Spirit of adoption
And I will cry out loud Abba Father
For I am joint heir with You Lord
In all the madness why run away from it
If indeed we suffer with You Lord
That we may also be glorified together
I Love the sound of that
I thank God through Christ Jesus our Lord
'Think of it this way:
If a man owns a hundred sheep and one lamb wanders away and is lost,
won’t he leave the ninety-nine grazing the hillside and thoroughly search for the one lost lamb? '
Matthew 18:12 TPT
Well hello and welcome to the madness of the world.
The earth was without form and void and darkness was on the face of the deep
The Spirit of God walks and spoke light into beings
The light shines in the darkness and
The darkness did not comprehend it
The light penetrates into hearts and
The word became flesh and tabernacled in our hearts
How wonderful is our God!
Hope you had a great weekend and also had a day of rest.
I actually napped, very surprised because my watched recorded it
Could you believe it as I rested my head on the sofa after church
I mean after stuffing my face with crisps the weight of it
Was so heavy that my mind could not lay awake
My stomach could not stand in the weight
So I lie down and the food digested
My eyes close and the sweet dreams come
It is in Him that we have breath
Welcome to my "Treasure Trove of Information"
Last Monday in April wow
So I give thanks to the Almighty and Saviour
We can never stop saying thank YOU
The voice of one crying in the wilderness
Make straight the way of the Lord
John 1:23b
So in my thanks to the Lord,
I choose some words that stirs me up
Get me out of my chair
Make me smile
Make me dance
Make me cry
Nothing like the words of the Lord to bring out all the emotions in me
My heart yearns for the Lord so this is a worship of thanks
And a reflection of His words
Walking in the cool of the day with the Lord
I love to imagine that in the garden
What do you seek?... think about it
Come and see.. The world of madness come and see
Follow me .. no more words needed, no reason needed
Woman, believe Me...for now we worship in Spirit and in truth
Who is like You Lord, for it is in You
We have life
We have the living water
We have the bread of life
I don’t need to see signs and wonders
You do make me laugh and smile and provoke my senses
For sometimes the science in me wonders the words You speak
So I sit and listen
Your words raises my eyebrow in wonder and awe
For I wanted to hear more, what does this mean?
“I am the bread of life”
Okay, what does it mean?
You picked my curiosity for I wanted to eat this bread and have a life with You
You even show me the things that I hide to myself
You love me in spite of all I have done
Yes the Lord is good
And He has invited us to sit and have breakfast
So I sit and let the words overflow
As You spoke the words to Simon, son of Jonah
“Do you Love Me more than these?”
Now my first response is “Yes, You know I love You”
The words penetrate in my heart
“More than these”
For it is a life of growth in Love
Committed to the journey of life
Because work, family will come
Are you committed?
Love grows as the plant grows when watered
Lord, how amazing to reflect
“Feed my lambs”
For it starts as a lamb
Greater is He that is in me than he that is the world
In Your power and might
The lamb is fed and cared for
The lamb is now a sheep
We tend the sheep
Then we fed the sheep
Let all those who seek You rejoice and be glad in You
Let such as Love Your Salvation say continually
The Lord be magnified
But I am poor and needy
Yet the Lord thinks of me
You are my help and deliverer
For You have sent someone to care for me
To feed me and give me shelter
Blessed is he who considers the poor
The Lord will deliver Him in time of trouble
As the wisdom of our Lord is apparent
I have come to learned what a sheep is
Sheep become stressed when isolated; this stress is reduced if they are provided with a mirror, indicating that the sight of other sheep reduces stress. ~ according to Wikipedia
And so we thank You for community
For You will always leave the ninety-ninety to find the one
Because we are together
The Lord of hosts is with us
The God of Jacob is our refuge
Let everyone that has breath Praise the Lord
'How truly wonderful and delightful it is to see brothers and sisters living together in sweet unity! It’s as precious as the sacred scented oil flowing from the head of the high priest Aaron, dripping down upon his beard and running all the way down to the hem of his priestly robes. This harmony can be compared to the dew dripping from Mount Hermon, which flows down upon the hills of Zion. Indeed, that is where Yahweh has decreed his blessings will be found, the promise of life forevermore!'
Psalms 133:1-3TPT
Blessed are those who delight in the Lord
For it is in Him we find rest
Though we see the week unfold
We sit and think and memories unfold
All the hurt comes to the surface
Indeed we know the true
We are but mere mortals
We cry out to our God to prove the innocence
Of our loved ones
Though we wished to dispute
Though they wished to silence
We take the case to our God
His wisdom is profound
His power is vast
Who has resisted Him and come out unscathed?
He moves the mountains
So in the midst of trails
My mind look back to last year
As I walked and felt the unloving nature of the heart of men
For God has created us
We are His children
He moves the mountains without us knowing
He shakes the earth from its place
He shines light in the darkness
He speaks to the sun and it does not shine
He seals off the light of the stars
He sees the heart of all
I have loved the week
The sun had shine even with a cold wind
The sun brings a smile to my face
The sun brings a smile to people’s faces
We look in anticipation and pleaded
With our Lord for mercy
We waited for a long time
Even though we were innocent
We do not believe He would give us a hearing
And we felt the crush with a storm
Our wounds multiply as we look and wait
As we hold our breath
We are overwhelmed with misery
If it is a matter of strength, it is only found in Him
He is mighty, and a matter of justice,
Who can challenge Him? No one is like our God
Only for a moment as wait
I forget the troubles of the world
I reflected on the events of the week
I have found that events brings memories
So I focus on my plants
My plants are coming nicely and
I decided to add another tree to the list
Already have a pear and now cherry Duo
Can't wait to see them grow
So the week unfold and verdict is set
A relief brings back a sigh
And the journey to restoration starts
For today we do not forget but let us
Sing, O daughters of the earth
Shout and pray!
Be glad and rejoice with all your heart
For we have waited for the Lord
They have done violence to the Law
The Lord is righteous in our midst
He will do no unrighteousness
Every morning He brings His justice to light
He never fails
But the unjust knows no shame
Therefore we will wait on the Lord
For the Lord is always near to all
The mighty One will save
He will rejoice over us with gladness
He will quiet us with His Love
He will rejoice over us with His singing
For early in the morning
I hear the birds singing
He comforts those who mourn
So our eyes look to the Lord our God
Blessed are the merciful
For they shall obtain more mercy.
Ask the Lord for rain in the springtime;
It is the Lord who sends the thunderstorms.
He gives showers of rain to all people,
And plants of the field to everyone.
Zechariah 10:1 NIV
Happy Friday and thank You Lord
Faithful You are
The weather was ever changing
The entire week was warm, cold and raining
In one day, the mysteries of the world
Yesterday as I stepped out of my house
One side was raining on the same street the other side was dry
My front door floor was both dry and wet
What a sight
So I look at the floor and smiled
Looked at the sky
The beauty of the creator
And my entire walk was singing and smiling
Different songs combined together my own paraphrase version
Your mercy, O Lord is in the Heavens
Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds
Your righteousness is like the great mountains
Your judgment are deeper than the ocean
O Lord You preserve man and beast
Your faithfulness is forever
Great is Your faithfulness
Great is Your faithfulness
Morning by morning
New mercies I see
All I have needed Your hand has provided
So I worshiped with these few lines in my head
The whole hour and came home to listen to it-earworm
“Great is Thy faithfulness”
Thank the Lord for internet
The amazing thing is, so many versions online
But I prefer the old version song
The way to defeat the enemy
Worship, so I reflect on Yahweh
I worshiped Him and I have decided to do some potted planting
I pray for my plants and I was reminded of Jonah
So I prayed to God to let me see the world in
His eyes with compassion for all creatures
And the world I live in
So in my head, I started to think
Plants are easy they don’t argue back
I try to argue, well I try to reason in my heart
The grass weathers, the plants fade
But the word of God stands forever
All things are the beauty of God
So I am documenting my plant and not getting attached to it
They will die, eventually everything dies
Maybe I should get a dog
Then it is another responsibility
Will see may be I do want a dog, I like cats
But I don’t want to be the cat lady
Preference is dog if any animal to get my affection
Sorry cats!
So this week my eyes has seen
The King in his beauty and I have come
To view the land that stretches far with all the beautiful flowers
The heavens are telling of the glory of God
And the expanse is declaring the work of His hands
The sky shows the majestic King
In the beginning was the word and the word was with God
The earth was without form
The Lord spoke and behold we look at the beauty of His creation daily
So I smiled to my God
I dance to my Father
I sing to the Almighty
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
To receive power and riches and wisdom
And strength and honour and glory and blessing
One side rain and the other dry, it was an amazing site. Also seeing the plants grow is truly something to step out of the house for. Got some of the plants as gifts for my birthday and bought some.
Everyone LOOK!
Come and see the breathtaking
wonders of our God
For He brings both ruin and revival.
He's the one who makes conflicts end
throughout the earth,
breaking and burning
every weapon of war
Psalms 46:8-9 TPT
How shall we sing the Lord's song
For it is good to sing praises to our God
For it is pleasant and Praise is beautiful
O Praise the Lord!
For His Mercy endures forever
Blessed be the Lord God Almighty
He created all creatures
Come and see the sky that shows the beauty
The beauty that is beyond words, that makes you breathless
Let us come before the Almighty in awe and wonder
Without electricity or gas, we have no fire
Without gossip we have love for one another
What a wonderful God we serve
Create in us a clean heart O God
To see Your glory and to reflect Your goodness
Lord You have created the wise, so we see the world
Thank You God for the people that brings wisdom to us all
Thank You that they listen to You and share the Good news
To bring the body closer to You and glorify Your name
Thank You Lord that through Your wisdom a house is built
And our foundation is in You only
Thank You Father for the friendship we build along the way
For it is in this that when one is less able
We have others to help in need
For a friend loves at all times
And a brother is born in adversity
Thank You for the body of Christ
That each part has a purpose
And each part is different to help each other
when in need we call upon Your Name
Oh give thanks to the Lord
Make known His deeds among the peoples!
He is the Lord our God
Blessed be His name
Praise the Lord!
Sing to Him a new song
'Your eyes will see the king in his beauty and view a land that stretches afar. '
Isaiah 33:17NIV
Southwark park entrance it smells so nice and also you get to see the beauty of the flowers and trees
Oh come let us sing
and make a joyful sound to the Lord
It has been cold this week
What a week? I am not so sure
Are we in spring or winter
For as I opened the blinds to let the sun in
To my surprise it was snowing
In April not rain but snow
So I had time to reflect
Look at the detail of Christ
Few words kept coming across my eyes
Why do you seek? He asked His parents
Man shall not live by bread alone
But by every word of God
The temptation of the world
Cannot be overcome alone
For it is in Christ that we are set free
For though I walk through the valley
Or thrown into the fire I am never alone
Launch out into the deep and let down
Your nets for a catch
So I walk into the deep
A deep end that requires LOVE
Not a feeling for it did pass
For when I had no feeling
I knew what love really was
Love is an action that is incredibly patient
Love does not reason in it heart
But believes the best in people
It goes out of it way to give without expecting a return
So I listen to the music
And I dance to it as it snows outside
And then I braved it outside
Why? I like to walk
With winter coats and hats on for the sun was out but cold
Even with the cold under the sunlight I feel the warmth
It made me smile and forget the troubles
As I cast all my cares and troubles to Him
And as I remember the season of resurrection
Who do you say I am?
The Christ of God
Then pick up your cross and follow me
No looking back
Follow me
Do not be afraid to follow me
For I will show You who to fear
Fear God, who has the power to cast your
Soul into hell, Yes do fear Him!
In reverent fear
Therefore let Your words be few
Better not to vow than to vow and not pay
For the Lord is faithful
His grace abounds in each of us
He is slow to anger and abandoning in Love
Yes I did decide to buy a foam roller
Then I wonder why this late because they are incredible
Getting a massage, wow so I feel all the aches and pains
In a good way, see I get pleased very easily
Little things make my eyes smile
Oh come let us sing
Praise to the Lord!
My adventurous walks and finding out that Bermondsey has a beach in the lockdown, shocking!
Lord when I am cold, You put my feet in socks
You watch closely all my paths
You set a limits for the soles of my feet
Who can ever replace You?
There is no one in the earth that compares to You
You prevail forever
As the trees leaves falls in its season
And the rock is moved from its place
As water wears away stones
So will our Hope if not on You
So our Lord and Savior I trust in You
I lay my hand over my mouth
And listen to You Father
Speak Lord for Your servant is listening
I have heard of You and I now see You
Through the Grace of Our Lord Jesus Christ
Who saved all
As gift from You
Keep alert and pray that you'll be spared
from this time of testing.
For the spirit is eager enough,
but your humanity is feeble
Mark 14:38 TPT
Taking a break from the Unknown and taking a seat in the garden and watching the Lord Jesus Christ.
The Garden: I Love the Garden this garden shows me that it is not easy but the will of God will overcome any obstacle I face. I need to stand strong and know that the Lord overcame it all and all things are possible with God. His will is my will. As I reflect on the day that our Lord and Savior was in the garden. Imagine it, watch and pray. See Him in the garden, be in the garden and give glory to the Father.
Woman, Jesus replied, believe me,
a time is coming when you will worship
the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem
John 4:21
Panoramic view: Lindos village on Rhodes, Greece
Truly our God is good
He provides, it starts with Jesus and ends with Him
To those who are pure in heart
And the middle is the pursuit of our Lord
And His will over our lives
But as for me, my feet almost stumbled
My steps had nearly slipped
For I was envious of the boastful
When I saw the prosperity of the wicked
So I sit and reflect on the glory and reason
For the word became flesh and dwell among us
So I might have eternal life
They speak of the earthly treasures
They set their mouth against the Heavens
Pride serves as their necklace
So I turned my eyes back to You
And as I focus, I come to release that
It is a daily process,
It is a journey, the journey that never ends
The more I pursue You, the more my passion grow
To serve You with every facet of my life
You hold my right hand
You guide me with Your counsel
You take me into Your glory
Whom have I in heaven but You?
And earth has nothing I desire besides You
Challenges do come
My flesh and my heart may fail
But God is the strength of my heart
Setbacks I have come to know
They are a set up for the next chapter in my journey
A long journey that will require Your Love
It is indeed a marathon, so I will get thirsty
Those who stay far from You will perish
For the things of the world, the water in the world,
will only make you thirst for more
But as for me, it is good to be near God
I have made the Sovereign Lord
The Holy one, The High Priest my refuge
I will tell of His deeds
I will sing the Lord's praise
For He has been good to me
For You created my inmost being;
You Knit me together in my mother's womb
I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Your works are wonderful,
I know that full well
Psalms 139:13-14
Late one as it is a day to rest and enjoy the beauty of the world and give glory to the Lord for another year added 🙂
Happy Friday, Life is meant to be enjoyed!
My heart rejoices in the Lord
In the Lord, my strength is lifted high
In the Lord, my mouth boasts over my enemies
For I delight in His deliverance
This week is a celebration of my life
There is no one Holy like the Lord
There is no Rock like our God
It is God that has made sure I am alive
As I reflect over the years past
It is not by strength that one prevails
Those who oppose the Lord will be broken
The Lord gives and the Lord takes away
May the name of the Lord be praised
My God, O my God
How I delight in Your presence
For as I consider all You have done
In my heart, You are always so good to me
So I would declare it to all
The righteous, and just God
The God who created me,
chose me before I was born
And then You gave me choices
To choose What is right in Your eyes or
What is right in my eyes - the eyes of the world
So I continue to pray to You Father
For it is Your wisdom that I desire
To live and dwell in Your kingdom
To be in the house of the Lord
For this world is full of things both seen and unseen
One event happens to the righteous and the wicked
As long as we are in this world both face the evil of this world
Madness in the hearts of all while we live
And after we go to the dead
We are forgotten, and a new generation start the process
For in the dead, we no longer worship You
For the living know they will die
But the dead know nothing
This is all madness
So I will sit and ponder on this madness
For it is time to celebrate another year added to existent
Yes Lord I thank You for another year and I also
Think of the madness that has happened over the years
One wonders all the possibilities
The life You freely give each day and I thank You
It is always a privilege to live for You Christ
To live in You is gain
It is a gift to smile in the morning to see the sunshine
It is also a gift to feel Your comfort
When we mourn the loss of a love one
Lord God, I thank You for another year added to my life
