150 of 365 - Prayers to JESUS    

Jesus, I thank You Lord for this season of learning — for by Your chastening and correcting I know that You Love me! When I don’t deserve Your Love and when I am “straying” from Your Truth and cannot find myself for the “darkness” that surrounds my wandering from You, yet Your Love Shines like a Guiding Like and You draw me back onto the “Narrow Pathway” and shelter me with Unconditional Love from the attacks of the world. Lord, I pray that l share with others in like manner that You have “Shared” with me and to all those that You put in my pathway may my light guide them to the True Light!       AMEN

THE JESUS QUESTIONS

MAY 29  THE JESUS QUESTIONS  JQ#18-02  >>> Lessons, Lifestyle, and Parables of Jesus <<< JQ#18  “But who do you say that I am?” (Matthew 16:15)  Jesus in His mysterious way has taken all the lessons and experiences that I have been “Graced” with along my Journey to God and He has placed a task before me that is a culmination of all the little pieces in my daily life in such a way that I cannot but be totally amazed that God can use so many daily life experiences to Teach us about His Kingdom!  However, we should not be surprised because God Himself Promised to reveal Himself to us if we but search for Him with all our heart.  In this study of The JESUS Questions, God has revealed His Plan and demonstrated that He will build our “understanding” one small block at a time. As each block of “understanding” is securely mortared into place with Holy Scripture and we have taken care to set each block in place using God’s “Level” of Moral Standards, we see that we are building a strong Foundation on the “Rock of Ages” and slowly but surely our House of God is taking shape. That is what has been happening with me through these Lessons and my personal involvement with Kingdom Work — the Holy Spirit has put all the memory verses and recent Lessons together in such a way that I see the “Strong Tower of Faith” where I may be sheltered from the world. This “Strong Tower” has formed to a point that I can clearly see God at work and the “Truth of God” being clearly revealed in my daily struggles. The lesson that was really brought out was that on JUNE 27 God introduced what I now at this point of my Journey I can with all confidence declare as the “Cornerstone” of my Faith ——— When I started to give my honest answer to the personal Question Jesus asks of everyone: “But who do you say that I am?” (Matthew 16:15) that I could clearly see that all the Holy Spirit has taught me so far is neatly summed up in a single verse, “Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” (John 14:6) Here as I asked myself, “What have I learned about Jesus in my life?”, the Holy Spirit brought that verse to my mind and I can say with all the twists and turns my “Journey” has taken me through thus far, (and I use the word “through” on purpose) that I see and know that Jesus is the “TRUTH” and the “THE TRUTH OF JESUS IS THE THE ONLY WAY” and it is only BY FOLLOWING THE WAY OF JESUS THAT I HAVE TRUE LIFE!!! This JQ#18 JESUS Question is a very, very, if not the most important Question asked so far in this JESUS Questions Study so I am praying that as I start this “Deeper Still” Journey into the Truth of God that all who read this will stop at this point of their life and set down some “markers” at this point of their journey to God and seriously consider “Who do you say that Jesus is, to you?”  Jesus has very clearly stated “Who” He IS — therefore the Question really boils down to a question of our personal belief, and so we must ask ourselves, am I going to believe the “TRUTH” or am I going to keep listening to the lies? Read about the fall and note that even before Eve listened to Satan’s lie that she had already lied to herself, we need to ask ourself, “Am I lying to myself about God?” then go back and read John 14:6 and remember that “the Truth will set you free!”
