060 of 365 - Prayers to JESUS    

Jesus, in 2004 when You first started me on the narrow path You awoke in me the Holy Spirit to teach me how to pray and what to pray for and for that “spiritual awakening” I give You “Praise and Glory” for without those guidances from the Holy Spirit I know that I would not have been able to “know the Way” — Lord Jesus, I submit this March 30, 2004 prayer today FEBRUARY 29 because Your Truth is Eternal: “…Lord remember me when You come into Your Kingdom. For men there is no hope without Your Sacrifice, for there is no man that could keep all the points of “The Law” or live a perfect sinless life before Almighty God, we are all weak and have been born into a sin nature. Lord, I make no pretense anymore that there is any “Good” in me except for the faith that I have in the things You have done, Lord Jesus. Grant it Lord that I might grow in that “faith in Jesus Christ” day-by-day and that my “self” will fade into nothingness as You come into Your Kingdom in my very soul.”    AMEN

THE JESUS QUESTIONS

FEBRUARY 29  THE JESUS QUESTIONS  JQ#07-03 >>> Lessons, Lifestyle, and Parables of Jesus <<< JQ#7 “Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?” (Matthew 8:26) Jesus always ties His Lessons together in an order that if we follow His Teachings we will be building our “Foundation of Faith in God” on “The Solid Rock” and today the Holy Spirit makes the connection between Resurrection Sunday, the Creation, and JQ#7: “Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?” (Matthew 8:26a) and they will all be tied together by pointing out these similarities: (1) The Creation of All things “Physical” in Genesis (2) The Creation of All things “Spiritual” in Jesus on Resurrection Sunday (3) The lack of “faith” in those who overlook the “Obvious God” and (4) The growing of “faith in God” by belief in the things God has Already Done until that “faith in God” becomes “Spiritual Sight”. A thorough reading of the first 5 verses in the first Chapter of the first Book in God’s Bible will reveal things about God and the Creation of both the Physical World (Genesis 1:1) and His laying down the foundation upon which the Spiritual World (Genesis 1:3) is built.  These two worlds could only be built by an All-Powerful, All-Knowing, Almighty Creator God that can never be explained by man’s finite intellect which is bounded by man’s obsession with “self”. A thorough study of Resurrection Sunday will reveal the Creation of the Narrow Gate  whereby the believer that has grown their “faith” to the point that they can spiritually discern the will of God can see that the “Key” to finding the “Narrow Gate” is growing their “faith in Jesus”, the Only Begotten of the Father, to the point that their “faith in Jesus” has become “Spiritual Sight” to locate the “Narrow Gate” and once the “Narrow Gate” is located they will be able to use the “Key” to boldly “Enter by the Narrow Gate” into the Spiritual Creation realized by the Life, Death, Burial, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ! If one cannot accept that “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” (Genesis 1:1) then their “faith” will not be able to accept that God planned Salvation from before creation and He accomplished His Master Plan through Resurrection Sunday. But if one is desirable of growing their “faith in God” until it becomes “Spiritual Sight” then the “Obvious God” will reveal how God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are One with the expressed purpose of “drawing all men” to the kingdom of God to be “One with Them”, and this “Spiritual Sight” comes from “Believing” the things that have already been accomplished by God so that we may enjoy the “miracle of being alive”. Further, we will see that God went through great lengths to accomplish so much good for our “life” that excitedly we will proclaim as did the disciples when they saw Jesus as He calmed the wind and the waves (that He had created): “So the men marveled, saying ‘Who can this be, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?’” (Matthew 8:27) and then we can exclaim with our newfound “Spiritual Sight” — “We have seen the “Obvious” that this IS God, the Creator, who can do whatever He desires for His Creation, and He has chosen to give us Peace and Eternal Life through Jesus Christ!!!” God really is that “Obvious” and He really is that “Powerful” — just open your spiritual eyes!!!
