1 Thessalonians 4:15-18

   For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.  For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:  Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air and so shall we ever be with the Lord.  Wherefore comfort one another with these words.     

​​​​​​​2 Timothy 4:7-8
For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing

HE STILL PRAYS FOR US
by David Wilkerson
[May 19, 1931 - April 27, 2011]

Zechariah 3 describes a high priest named Joshua standing before the Lord, and
Satan standing at his right hand to oppose him. Also present was an angel, who
had to be Christ because angels do not judge.

Joshua was a real man, not just a type of Christ. He was the high priest during
the time of Ezra and Nehemiah. In Ezra 10:18 it appears that Joshua had married
a heathen woman; at that time, the worst way a Jew could defile himself was by
marrying a Gentile.

"Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel"
(Zechariah 3:3). Joshua stands before the throne in his filthy garments, and
the devil is at his side, accusing him. Satan argued: "This man has broken Your
law and sinned against You." The devil's accusations were correct: Joshua had
sinned and now Satan claimed Joshua for himself.

Beloved, this is exactly what happens with us. Satan comes before the throne of
grace to accuse us. He points at us and says, "You know all things, God, and You
see the compromise in this one's life. If You are just, You must give me his
soul." In Revelation 12:10, Satan is called "the accuser of our brethren” and
he stands before God right now to oppose you and me — to accuse us of sin.

That is when Jesus, our Advocate, steps up and says, "It is true, Father. He
has failed but there is faith in his heart — faith in the power of My blood.
I have paid for every sin he has or ever will commit." Jesus then turns to
those standing by, "Take his filthy garments and put My robe of righteousness
upon his shoulders."

Jesus said to Satan, "The Lord rebuke thee, O Satan . . . Is not this a brand
plucked out of the fire?" (Zechariah 3: 2). What a picture! The devil was
forced to leave with a sound rebuke and Joshua walked away with a pardon, a new
garment and a crown of righteousness on his head.

"If any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the
righteous" (1 John 2:1). Jesus has been in glory for these 2,000 years praying
for us and He is still praying for us.

I needed to read this this morning as I have been going through a lot lately. Thought maybe someone else could use the same message.

Mary, there is going to be more joy in heaven on that day, that great day when all the redeemed are free
It is written that perfect love casts out fear
We can come to God and stand before Him without fear BECAUSE of Jesus. Thank you Lord of all

"For Your Discernment"

From the book "His Name is One", pg 122 online, Jeff Benner explains the Hebraic meaning behind the naming of God a "Jealous God".

While our Western mind may see the term a "jealous God" in his feelings and actions toward us, it is in fact his feelings and actions toward our enemies.
The heathens and false gods are like predators invading the nest and God fights them protecting his children from their clutches.


This book is a great comfort to me at home because of being able to look up various names of God and reading about who He is and what He is like. His names comfort me. I hope His name "jealous" comforts you this morning
