WhydoIuse color in these scriptures?

Chapter one

During some of the worship services I attended I seen people talking, swapping phonedetails, orusingtheirphonestotext oneanother, andI saw onewomanplayinggamesonherphone,otherspassingoutsweets,ortalking, andsomestandingwiththeirhandsintheirpockets,andthiswasthroughthe worship, and it grieves me seeing this as I want to be in touch with God throughtheworshipasbestasIcan,andthisalsodistractsmefrommygiving himworship.

John 4 Living Bible (TLB)

19 “Sir,” the woman said, “you must be a prophet. 20 But say, tell me, why is it that you Jews insist that Jerusalem is the only place of worship, while we Samaritans claim it is here at Mount Gerizim where our ancestors worshiped?”

21 24 Jesus replied, “The time is coming, ma’am, when we will no longer be concerned about whether to worship the Father here or in Jerusalem. For it’s not where we worship that counts, but ‘how we worship’ —is our worship’’ spiritual and real?’’ ‘’Do we have the Holy Spirit’s help?’’ For ‘’God is Spirit,’’ and we ‘’must have his help to worship’’ as we should; ‘’The Father’ ‘’wants’’ this kind of worship from us.’’ But you Samaritans know so little about him, worshiping blindly, while we Jews know all about him, for salvation comes to the world through the Jews.”

25 The woman said, “Well, at least I know that the Messiah will come the one they call Christ and when he does, he will explain everything to us.”

26 Then Jesus told her, “I am the Messiah!”

Another translation says it like this!

John 4 8 King James Version (KJV)

23 but the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall ‘’worship the Father’’ in ‘’spirit and in truth:’’ for the Father ‘’seeketh such to worship him.’’

24 ‘’God is a Spirit:’’ and they that worship him ‘’must’’ worship him in ‘’spirit’’ and in ‘’truth.’’

For its ‘’not where’’ we ‘worship’ that counts, but ‘’how’’ ‘’we worship’’

You don’t have to be in a church to worship God, you can worship him anywhere;andthisisnormallywhereweworshiphimaswewalkaboutorsit athome,justtryingtogetintouchwithGodandJesus,aswenormallydo.

ToworshipGodinspiritmeansthatweworshiphiminthespirit; *praying in tongues* as the Holy Spirit gives you the vocalization. It is through the Holy Spirit that you ‘’truly worship God reverently’’ ‘’worshipping him in tongues {spirit} in the supernatural language of the Holy Spirit.’’ We have been given thegiftofspiritualworshipthroughtheHolySpiritsgiftoftongues,aspiritual

Who knowsmoreaboutworshipandreverencethanGod,soifhesaysthisiswhat hewants,thenwhydothechurchesnotgivehimthiskindofworship?

Jesus said that we must worship God in tongues the words of the Holy Spirit; for they are not flesh and blood words no matter what country we comefrom.TonguesareagiftfromtheHolySpirittoussothatwecanprayin theperfectwillofGod.

Romans 8:26Expanded Bible (EXB)

26 ·Also [or In the same way], the Spirit helps us ·with [or in] our weakness. We do not know ·how to pray as we should [or what we ought to pray for] But the Spirit himself ·speaks to God for us [intercedes] with ·deep feelings [groaning]·that words cannot explain [or that are

inexpressible;

or that are unspoken; or too deep for words].

The Holy Spirit himself through us, speaks to God, as ‘’he’’ intercedes for us, with deep feelings, groaning where words are unavailable to us. Sometimes things that happento us aretoo deep ahurt, that all wecan do is moan, and groan, wecannot get thewords out,orwedon’t evenknow what wordsthat wecanuseforthepaininusissoindescribabletobeabletopronouncethem, and that’s where we turn our attention to the Holy Spirit, as we groan and travail in spirit, until our pain is expressed aloud to God, and he knows of coursewhatwearesayingthroughtheHolySpirit.

Every Christian should be baptized in the Holy Spirit so that they can all receivethisawesomegiftfromGodtothemthroughhisHolySpirit,andpray with‘’reverence’’ towardsGodasweprayinspiritashesaidweshould. The true worshippers shall worship the Father in

Inexpressible,

means = indescribable, ineffable, beyond words, overwhelming, deep, indefinable, unutterable, unspeakable, beyond description, unimaginable, inexpressible, and deep.

IstherelationshipyouhavewithGod,inexpressible,deep,beyondwords?Do you holdhiminawe?HavingafearofGod,not afearofwhathemight doto you, but of respect and wonder, and overwhelming! Awe meaning fear, a ‘’respectful fear of God;’’ a ‘’trepidation,’’ like walking on eggshells around God; in ‘’awe and wonder and delight;’’ and an awe meaning ‘’admiration,’’ holdingGodinallofthesemeaningsallattheonetime?Thisisaweinallofits glory, holding in your breath for a while, too overwhelmed to speak or even thinkofsomethingelse.

I get this feeling of awe when I hold my breath and I think of the name of Jesusand knowing who and what he is and who is in me also,andthenslowly releasemybreaththinkingthenameofJesusisallofGodinhimself.Hisname isHoly,heisaholyGod!

To worship God means to hold him in reverence, adoration, love, respect, devotion, adulation, veneration, adore.

Reverence for God means admiration, awe, veneration, astonishment, amazement, adoration,

A spiritual experience I had

I remember an experience I had with God one day as I worshipped him in tonguesforaboutanhourandahalf,justsinging,praying,andministeringin spiritsingingmysongstohimentertaining him,forwhoheis;whenIseena vision of myself standing facing a deep darkness, and I was looking down on myself at the same time, when all of a sudden I was there looking into that deepdarkness,thatseemedtostretchfrometernitytoeternity.

And asI stoodthere for a few minutessuddenlyagiganticeye andlookedat me,andIrealizedthatIwaslookingintotheeye,thepupilofAlmightyGod.

Hiseyewasonlyhalfopened,andIsawthatittookinthatblacknesswithan evendeepershadeofblackthatstretchedfrometernitytoeternityistheonly wayIcandescribeit;andasIlookedIrealizedthisisAlmightyGodshowing methathewaslookingafterme,andappreciatedmyworshipforitwasfrom thedepthofmyinnermostbeingsungtohim.

‘’
’’

Then I was back up looking down, and the vision ended. This held me in

awe,

I a mere man, a spirit filled man like my other brothers and sisters, was given the grace to see my God’s eye, and I thought afterwards how enormousthathalfopenedeyewas.AsIsaidittookfrometernitytoeternity tolookintoit,andrealizingthiseyewasonlyasmallportionofGod,sowhat size was he? From eternity to eternity that was his size. My mind cannot comprehend the true size of God for he is spirit and spirit has no beginning height, depth, or length, or end; it is all consuming,

everything created is withinourmasterGod!

WhatagoodGodwehavethatisinterestedinmeandyou,andhegavemethe grace and favor to look into his half opened eye; this even now holds me in aweofhim,IfindmyselfdrawinginmybreathjustasIvisualizemyselfagain standingbeforehishalfopenedeye!

You don’t have to see into the eye of God to realize his size, all the created planets andsunsinspace givesusthe beginning of asenseof hissize,for all these worlds and planets were created by him for a reason, and are within him,andtheHolySpiritandJesus,theydonotexistoutsidetheprofundityof GodtheTrinity.

When we know and begin to understand what God created, and most likely created them all for us in spirit one day in eternity. For he does not create something that is of no use. We are not the only creation that God created; lookatthebeingsdescribedinRevelationsandinotherscriptures,wheredid theycomefrom?Aliens?Ihavenoideawhattheyshouldbecalled. No matter what they might be, they are ‘’his creation’’ and nobody else’s, so givethatsomethoughtyoualienseekers.Lol

Musicians hear me

Isaythistoallmusicians;worshippingGodthroughmusicandsongwillbring you great visitations from him, and you will ‘like me,’ experience wonderful things like I experienced; but I will not go into all of the wondrous things I experienced, but they were all heavenly; some would never believe what I experiencedjustministeringtohim like Elvis singing to his girlfriend,inthe movies, singing into their eyes, and that is what I envisioned myself doing everytimeIministeredtohim,IfelttosingtohimlikeIwasentertaininghim, and loving him personally, and like I said, I was blessed with revelation, and glorious new songs that I now understand later were songs telling me who I was In Christ Jesus, giving him glory. So musician sing to him like you were singingtoyourtruelover;lookintohiseyesandministertohimlikeyouwere giving a personal concert just for him alone. Worshipping to God through music will bring with it great blessings and especially worshiping him in tongues and not in English or whatever your language is, worshiping him

Genesis 1 Living Bible (TLB)

1 When God began creating the heavens and the earth, 2 the earth was a shapeless, chaotic mass,* with the Spirit of God brooding over the dark vapors.*

20 Then God said, “Let the waters teem with fish and other life, and let the skies be filled with birds of every kind.” 21 22 So God created great sea animals, and every sort of fish and every kind of bird. And God looked at them with pleasure, and blessed them all. “Multiply and stock the oceans,” he told them, and to the birds he said, “Let your numbers increase. Fill the earth!” 23 That ended the fifth day. 25 God made all sorts of wild animals and cattle and reptiles. And God was pleased with what he had done.

26 Then God said, “Let us make a man someone like ourselves,* to be the master of all life upon the earth and in the skies and in the seas.”

27 So God made man *like his Maker*. *Like God did God make man;* Man and maid did he make them. 28 And God blessed them and told them, “Multiply and fill the earth and subdue it; you are masters of the fish and birds and all the animals. 29 And look! I have given you the seed bearing plants throughout the earth and all the fruit trees for your food. 30 And I’ve given all the grass and plants to the animals and birds for their food.” 31 Then God looked over all that he had made, and it was excellent in every way. This ended the sixth day.

When God made man he created them as spirit beings he did not just make Adam and Eve as most people believe, no he created mankind with woman madeasequalpartners,andnotassomereligionsmakethemtobelessthana man,thisisnotthewillofGod,andhecreatedthemalltobeequal.Inlovedid he create us all? Then something changed and in Genesis two we see that changecomeabout.

Genesis 2 King James Version (KJV)

7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and

breathed into his nostrils the breath of life;

and

man became a living soul.

8 And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.9 And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.10 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads.

11 The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasses the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;12 And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone.

13 And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it that compasses the whole land of Ethiopia.

14 And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it which goes toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river is Euphrates.15 And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the Garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.

This is in Turkey Syria and Ethiopia

ThisiswhereGodseparatedmanfromtherestofhisspiritualwork;hecalled thismanAdam,

18 And the LORD God said, it is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a help mate for him.

19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature that was the name thereof.

20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found a help meet for him.

21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;

22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.

23 And Adam said this is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.

24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed

Thereisnoshametobetakenbetweenanakedhusbandandwife,andnotas somewhowouldmakeoutthatbeingnakedisshameful. Here is where God created Eve to be the forerunner of the flesh creation for shewas giventhepower tocreate life from Adams seed;later on Jesus came unto the earth and through his work in us God gave us his own seed a spiritualseedthathasnocorruptioninit.–

1 John 3:9

No one born (begotten) of God [deliberately, knowingly, and habitually] practices sin, for *God's nature abides in him* [*His principle of life,* the *divine sperm, * remains permanently within him]; and he cannot practice sinning because he is born (begotten) of God.

NowwhydidIcutthescripturesintoshortversions?Itisbecausethereistoo much in it for you to read in this book; go read the true book for yourself, thereissomuch moretobegleamedfromit! Thereissomuchtobelearned from the word that you will have to study it for yourself, and not listen to a meremanlikemeforyourenlightenment.

If we don’t know, what God in his great wisdom done for us, then we will nevertrulylearntoappreciatehimandgivehimreverenceforwhathedidfor usasAlmightyGodthecreator.

Then he sent Jesus to correct all that by bringing God’s own divine seed or spermwhateveryouwishtocallitandgivingittoallthatreceivedhim.Ifthis isn’t a reason to hold God in reverence I don’t know what is. I could spend hourstalkingaboutthebibleandtheblessingsinit,forIhaveatthismoment

intimewritten 328 booksteachingonthe *New Testament* *alone,* andthis holds me in awe, for I know I have written these books only by the Holy Spirits help, for I had no education, I spent three years off school due to a paralyzingillness.

Now to see I have written 328 spirit directed books I have every reason to hold my breath in, giving glory to the Holy Spirit; for I have him within and throughout every portion ofme.Knowing the Holy Spirit and speakinginhis heavenly language, and him healing the sick through me, gives me reason to hold him and Jesus, in awe, in reverence; for it is in *his name* that sets people free, and should be held in great esteem, his name Jesus is the name aboveeveryothername.

And that name used in the power of the Holy Spirit will heal the sick and deliver those possessed or oppressed, that name will set them free, for in truth whenyou call uponthat name you areactuallycalling Jesuswithinyou to intervenewith his Holy Spirit. Just as the Holy Spirit through Jesus healed all those people in the bible; it wasn’t Jesus who was healing them, but the Holy Spirit within him, read the scriptures and you will see that the Holy Spiritwaspresentinallhealingsormiracles,andtheHolySpiritdidthework ofhealinganddelivering,andJesusbeingamanlikeusdoneallthistoshow thathereceivedtheHolySpirit attheJordanriver,andwereceivedtheHoly SpiritwhenweaskedhimtocomeintousafterwereceivedJesusaslordand saviour.Soweshould reverence both Jesus andthe Holy Spirit aspart ofthe HolyTrinity.

Last year 2018

I seen this last year 2018 when I was giving a healing service in a church in HullEngland;andasIwalkedthroughthecrowdseekinghealingfromGod,I used the ‘’name of Jesus’’ to speak healing into a group of people crammed together.Awomansuddenlybeganscreechinginahighpiercingscream,and bendingoverintwoshereversedoutfromthecrowdscreaming atthetopof herlungs,andthepastor’sandothersoftheleadershiprantoministertoher asthatdemoncamescreamingoutofher,andtheypinnedherdownandlater {Ifoundoutthatshewasawitchthathadcomewithherotherwitchfriendto

Gods great love for mankind and his desire to heal those who came was manifested in this place as each person received healing, Praise and glory to ourwonderfulGod.Heistherestoreroflove.

1John 4:8

Amplified Bible The one who does not love has not become acquainted with God [does not and never did know Him], for God is love [He is the originator of love, and it is an enduring attribute of His nature.]

He is the originator of love, it is him where love was formed and passed on downthroughthecenturiestoyouwhoarereadingthis.

Exodus 20:7-Amplified Bible

“You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain [that is, irreverently, in false affirmations or in ways that impugn the character of God]; for the LORD will not hold guiltless nor leave unpunished the one who takes His name in vain [disregarding its reverence and its power].

AsIsaidpreviouslythe *name of Jesus* isreasonenoughtoholdyourbreath inandholdin,inadmiration.ThenameJesusistheonlynameofaGodwhere many Christians hold this name in disgrace using it as a curse word, saying *Jesus,usuallyaccompaniedbyotherdisgustingwordslikef***,almostevery timetheyhavesomethingtosay.

You never ever hear a Buddhist curse someone using the name of Buda as a curse, or a Muslim saying in the name of Allah ‘go to hell’ or something else using the name of their god, but you hear every religion saying curses in the

nameofJesus,andwhyisthis?Itisbecausethedevilandhisevilspiritsknow thepowerandauthorityinthenameofJesus.Theyknowtheyweredefeated by Jesus and they try to get Christians to use that name to curse and swear and disrespect his glorious name making it a laughing stock, whereby the ‘’true believer’’ neverusesthatnametocurseanyone.

Then I would go out and pray with people sometimes wondering why it is taking someone so long to get healed, and it probably was because earlier I may have used the name of Jesus to swear or curse. And instead of holding thatgloriousnameaboveallnamestoitshighestplaceinheaveninreverence, Imissedout.

As a Christian and especially as a Christian in a healing ministry I find it a shame to misuse that wondrous name of Jesus and then try and use it to commandhealinginhisname.SoIammakingitaseriousproblemtocometo theHolySpirittoseekhishelptojustusethenameof Jesus in holiness and in awe.

Isaiah 49:1-International Standard Version

[The Servant of the LORD] “Listentome,youcoastlands!Payattention,youpeoplefromfar away! The LORD called me from the womb; while I was still in my mother’s body,

Ecclesiastes 11:5 Living Bible

‘’
‘’
’’

God’s ways are as mysterious as the pathway of the wind and as the manner in which a

human spirit

is infused into the little body of a baby while it is yet in its mother’s womb.

God calls each of us by name, your mother or father didn’t name you, they followed his naming you byhiswordwhich came intotheir mind. When you read and realize how God infuses a ‘’human spirit’’ into a ‘little baby’ as it is growing in the mother’s womb, it makes you stop and

think how awesome God really is.

Ibelievethat forthemostofit,Christiansarenot awareofwhoorwhatGod really is, we may call him ‘’Father’’ and he is all of that; but he is more than Father he is the ‘’Almighty creator;’’ he is all consuming, a force of unimaginablepowerandsize,andhelovesus,everyoneofus.

Godchoseeveryoneofus,andhedecidedtogiveeachofusapersonalname and after we become born again, he gives us another name= ‘’Jesus;’’ for he infused you into the same spirit as Jesus, for he made you and me to be his sonsanddaughtersofequalstandingwithhim.

Reverence for God is justified andshouldmakeusgaspinwardsandthinkin awe, ‘’Wow!’’ ThisGodofoursisinstamatic;heisbeyondcomprehension,too deeptoevenbegintounderstand.Heinfusesahumanspiritintoalittlebaby, and then later on, he, infuses the spirit of Jesus Christ his son into us, in exchange for that human spirit, too awesome to even begin to understand. When you sit down in prayer and begin thinking about God and how breathtaking he actually is you can’t help falling down in adoration in reverence ofhim.

YoushallfearthelordyourGodandthisdoesnotmeantobeinterrorofhim butholdinghiminthedeepestrespect.

Deuteronomy 17:19-Amplified Bible

And it shall be with him, and he shall read it all the days of his life, so that he may ‘’learn’’ ‘’to fear [and worship] the LORD his God [with *awe filled reverence* and *profound respect*’’], by carefully obeying (keeping foremost in his ‘’thoughts’’ and actively doing) all the words of this law and these statutes,

We just don’t grow up with respect and reverence for God unless we are taught by our Christian parents the meaning of respect for God. For the majorityofChristianpeoplesadlyarenotlearningtotrulyrespectGod;forwe are taught he is ‘’father’’ and are slowly learning the awesomeness of their God, but he is more than father,heis *almighty God!*

Deuteronomy 31:12…Amplified Bible

Assemble the people, the men and the women and children and the stranger (resident alien, foreigner) within your cities, so that they may ‘’hear’’ and ‘’learn’’ and ‘’fear the LORD your God [with awe-filled ‘’reverence’’ and ‘’profound respect’’], and be careful to obey all the words of this law.

In the book of Deuteronomy there are many scriptures calling us to ‘’learn’’ and

The benefits of ‘’reverence’’ for ‘God’

Deuteronomy 31:12 Living Bible “Call them all together,” the Lord instructed, “ men, women, children, and foreigners living among you to ‘’hear the laws of God’’ and to ‘’learn his will,’’ so that ‘’you will *reverence* the *Lord your God* and *obey his laws *’’

Call people together to learn how to have reverence for God; yesterdayChristmas Day 2018, I heard my sixteen year old granddaughter using the ‘’name of Jesus’’ as an expression of a curse three different times, even thoughsheissupposedtobeaChristian,andthelasttimeshesaiditItoldher nottousethe name of Jesus insuchaway,becauseonedayshewillneedto calluponthatwondrousname,andtherewillbenofaithinthatnamebecause she has used it all her growing up life to thoughtlessly curse by, thereby one

The benefits of having reverence for God

Psalm 111:10-Living Bible How can men be wise? The ‘’only way to begin is by ‘’reverence’’ for God. ’’For growth in wisdom comes fromobeyinghislaws. Praise his name forever

It is harder for a man to be wise than it is for a woman; for women have a naturalwisdominthembecauseoftheirrearingchildren,soGodgavethema wisdom that a man just does not have. Now as this scripture tells you, ‘’the only way for a ‘’man’’ to be wise is to begin having ‘’reverence for God,’’ it says the ‘’only way’’ for a man to be wise is by having reverence for God, meaning there is no other way for a man to grow in wisdom except through thegiftingoftheHolySpirit,asoneofthesupernaturalgiftsoftheHolySpirit, giveninthebaptismintheHolySpirit!

Do you want prosperity? Now I am ‘not’ talking here about having loads of money, but having plenty of money to reach out and help others with your wealth;forGoddoesnotgivewealthtosatisfyyourgreedforyourselfsoyou can buy what you want no matter what it costs. No money is a financial blessing, to bless you and to ‘bless others’ as the Holy Spirit would lead? In thisnextscriptureGodpromisestoblessyouwith prosperityif,andthatisa big‘’if’’youdoashesaysinhisdivineword.

Psalm 112:1 Amplified Bible [Prosperity of the One Who Fears the LORD] Praise the LORD! (Hallelujah!) ‘’Blessed [fortunate, ‘’prosperous,’’ and ‘’favored by God’’] is the man who fears the LORD [with awe-inspired reverence and worships Him with obedience], who delights greatly in His commandments.

God is love;Godisthecreatorofallthatyou *see and feel* heisthecreator of love; that wonderful feeling of ‘faithfulness’ and ‘generosity,’ ‘kindness,’ and ‘glorious delight’ ‘joy’ ‘bliss,’ ‘ecstasy’.

Love from God is a wonderful reason to bow down, *reverence,* and *worship him* forwhenyou know that the gift of lovecomes from him and him alone, do you not want to bow down before him in ‘’exultation and wonder, euphoria, ecstasy and awe.’’ The more that I am writing about love makesmeseriouslywanttoadventuremoreintothedepthsofit,toencounter God in his self, to give him ‘’seriously great adoration,’’ to bow down my kneesandthankhimfromthebottomofmyheart.

To know that for fifty five years that Rose my wife loved me, even when I wronged her with two affairs, and many other things that would have put manyoff,butherloveformedrewmetoGod,forGodwasnotinmyheartfor manyyears.

DuringthetroubleshereinIreland;inourwarwithEngland,lovewentoutof my heart, and blackness entered; for love cannot exist in a heart filled with hatred; and it was hatred I felt for the British soldiers who killed with impunitypeoplehereinIreland,anddonemanyterriblethings,justlikethose theyfoughtagainst;nowPraiseGodforthatloveofhiswhichreturnedwhenI gavemylifetohim,andallhatredfledoutofme.

Chapter eleven

For God is love.

1 John 4:8 Amplified Bible

The one who does not love has not become acquainted with God [does not and never did know Him],*for God is love.* [He is the

originator of love,

and it is an enduring attribute of His nature.]

Whenyoutakeintoconsiderationaboutallthatyouhavereceivedasahuman being from God, and that is, ‘ even before you have accepted Jesus into your heartandlife,’thegloriousexistenceofyourlife,thatexistenceoflove,foryou have ‘’love for your mother’’ and ‘’love for your father’’ and ‘’love for your siblings,’’ and even ‘’love for your dog’’ or ‘’cat’’ or ‘’horse’’ or any kind of animalandyou ‘’loved your relatives’’ in a ‘’different kind of love’’ forlove has many attributes, {quality, characteristic, trait, feature, points, power, aspect, elements;} there are many sides to the gift of love that we received; for God is love, and he is multifaceted, his love reaches everywhere in differentsizesandshapes.

YoumaythinkthatyoucanhavegreattimesinyourlifewithoutGod,butthe realityisthatwhetheryouknowitornot,Godistherewithyoueverystepof theway;hecreatedyououtofloveforyou;hecreatedyoufromnothingbuta littlespermfromyourdaddy’swilly,andtheovumfromyourmother’s;andin herwombhecreatedyou, lovingyouwithgreatlove,andwastherewithyou watching youandheknittedyoutogetherinyourmum’swomb.

His Holy Spirit was given the job of watching over you and he also gave an angel the job of looking after you also, for there is a darn nasty devil that would love to kill you any time that he could; only your angel diverted his attacks without you even knowing. When you give your life over to Jesus he gives you a ‘’brand new spirit one with his own spirit,’’ that is ‘’Holy Spotless’’ and ‘’clean.’’ This makes it why we should have *total reverence for God* who would sacrifice his only son and see him suffer, first at the scourgingatthepillar;wherehetookawaytheworldssicknessanddiseases, for‘’hewaslashedandwewerehealed,’’‘’Isaiah 53 4 7’’ andthenalittlelater hungonacrosswithalltheworlds’sinonhimfromAdamandEve’ssintothe lastpersoninthisworldsin.

Knowing God, the results

Proverbs 9:10-Living Bible

For the ‘’reverence and fear of God’’ are basic to all wisdom. ‘’Knowing God’’ results in every other kind of understanding.

Knowing God is the basics to all wisdom and every other kind of understanding.DoyouknowthatGodevengivesyouaddedyearstoyourlife and the promise is sealed by having reverence for him?

Giving reverence to God will add hours to your days to your life; and if reverence is in your heart each day, those days turns into extra weeks, and then months, and then years, and ‘’Reverence for God’’ means that you ‘’lift up your hands,’’ {‘’both hands’’ ‘’not one hand;’’} {you lose a blessing} by justreverencingthelordwithonehandraiseduptohimlikesomeoneasking cantheyleavetheroomtogotothetoilet,liketheywerekidsbackinschool.

Chapter thirteen

Lift up your hands in the sanctuary

Psalm-134:2

Bless the LORD, All You Servants

1A Song of Ascents. Come; bless the LORD, all you servants of the LORD who serve by night in the house of the LORD! 2’’Lift up your hands to the ‘’sanctuary’’ and ‘’bless the LORD!’’

Ascent

Asongof ascent meansto‘’climbup,’’andgive‘’Godhisglory,’’byliftingholy handsuptohim;comeon,iftheMuslimscandoitsocantheChristians.

In the Old Testament you are told to ‘’lift up holy hands’’ and ‘’bless the lord’’ and you are told to do the same in the New Testament, then what we should be doing when worshipping the lord? Lift up your hands to the sanctuary’’ {the altar in church} where you may believe the presence of the lordmaybecelebrated.

If we only had the same enthusiasm for lifting holy hands up, and giving a mighty roar;likewhat you see at afootball match,whenwecomebeforethe lord what a sight that would be. I see thousands in stadiums in America and Africa, at a conference; some with lifted hands, but I don’t see the same enthusiasmforthelordasIseeforthefootballgame.

I see people getting healed in these mighty stadiums and the excitement is wonderfultowatchonTVbutwhensomeonescoresagoal,thereisamighty roar and men jumping up and down with joy and excitement, hugging each other and slapping each other on the back as if they themselves had scored thatgoal.

ForgivemeifwhatIhavewitnessedisthesamepossiblyasyouhadseen,and Imissedit,andIdidn’tseethatJoyforthelordasIseeninthefootballmatch.

And Christians very salvation is there at these stadiums and the presence of God is felt or witnessed by thousands, but there is quiet joy, if you can have quietjoythatis.

1-Timothy-2:8

Therefore ‘’I want’’ the men everywhere to pray, ‘’lifting up holy hands, ’’ without anger or dissension.

God’smessagetoTimothyfromStPaul,was,‘’hewantsmen’ ‘’everywhere’’ to ‘lift up’ ‘’Holy Hands,’’ not liftup ‘’one holy hand’’ andtheother ‘dirty one’ don’tliftup.Thisisthemessagetothechurchestoday.Liftup ‘’both’’ ofyour ‘’holy hands;’’ don’tstandwiththemstuckinyourpockets,orsittingholding amobilephoneplayinggamesortextingsomeone.

Ifyoucannotseethat God isaskingyoutoliftup‘’holy hands,’’ throughPaul’s message to Timothy, and by calling your hands ‘’holy,’’ does he not show through his word; that ‘’he’’ considers your ‘hands to be holy.’ He didn’t just makeyourhandsholyandtherestofyourbodydisrespectful,NO!Hemadeall ofyouholy,fromthe*topofyourheadtothetipsofyourbigtoes,inaddition totheendsofyourfingertips,holyaswell,*soifhemadethosepiecesofyour body holy, then we should never be ashamed to ‘’shout out to ‘’God’’ or ‘’praise him’’ forhisgloriouspresence.

If you ‘’only shout out cursing or swearing,’’ using that *breathtaking name;* ofGod;thenwhenadisastercomes,youwouldfeelmightilyashamed,andnot feel afterwardsthat you can askhimtocometoyour aid.So let’s get usedto shoutingoutpraiseandworship,toour‘’Godforhelovesusenthusiastically,’’ and I share the same feelings and emotion towards him as my Lord and saviour.

They will not unless you show them the way.Youarealighttotheworld;peoplearebeingcalledtofollowyourlead.

Psalm-141:2

Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.

Christians are losing out on a blessing from God because they do not exalt him;they‘’donotliftupholyhands’’realizingthatisaliteralcommandfrom Godinworship,andisasignofsurrenderalso.

If a gunman entered church and ordered everyone to stick their hands up high;everyonewouldobeyhimforfearofbeingshot.Stickingyourhandsup is a sign of surrender; it is also a sign of a little child seeking their daddy’s hands, calling on him to lift him or her up, you would never lift a child with onehandwouldyou,becauseyoucouldseriouslyhurttheirlittlearmpossibly pullingit out ofitssocket; neitherdoesyourheavenlyfather lift you upwith onehandincaseyougethurt.

Esther 5 Living Bible (TLB)

8 Mordecai also gave Hathach a copy of the king’s decree dooming all Jews, and told him to show it to Esther and to tell her what was happening and that she should go to the king to plead for her people. 9 So Hathach returned to Esther with Mordecai’s message. 10 Esther told Hathach to go back and say to Mordecai, 11 “All the world knows that anyone, whether man or woman, who goes into the king’s inner court without his summons is doomed to die unless the king holds out his gold scepter; and the king has not called for me to come to him in more than a month.”

This was the normal practice for someone to get permission to come before the King and it mattered not if it was their chosen queen. Ester was an extremelybeautifulwomanandthekinglikedher.Iwouldn’tsaylovedher,or he would not be interested in other women; he was the king and he had a harem with hundreds of women just waiting on his call.

5 Three days later Esther put on her royal robes and entered the inner court just beyond the royal hall of the palace, where the king was sitting upon his royal throne. 2 And when he saw Queen Esther standing there in the inner court, he welcomed her, holding out the golden scepter to her So Esther approached and touched its tip.

3 Then the king asked her, “What do you wish, Queen Esther? What is your request? I will give it to you, even if it is half the kingdom!”

I have a sense that God is personal for every person on this planet, and especiallywhen wedie andgo throughto him; somehow or otherhe istheir personal God that they worshipped and honored. I wondered just now as I write this how we can be witnessing a God who loves us individually, and I havetogowiththeknowledge that ‘’God is everywhere, sees everything and knows everything,’’ and that God is in us personally, and in all that come to him, and I believe that we will individually and personally, meet with our heavenly father ‘’one to one’’ because as a God of the impossible, nothing is impossible to him; I never thought of this before now, so I don’t have any scripture to back this up. He will say to us, ‘’well done my good and faithful servant,’’

Matthew 25:21 Amplified Bible (AMP)

21 His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful and trustworthy over a little, I will put you in charge of many things; share in the joy of your master.’

This scripture just jumped into my mind and I see from it Jesus made it a personalthingbetween ‘’our master who is God’’ andthe ‘’faithful servant,’’ If this scripture just jumped into my mind giving me a clearer insight to the relationshipthereisbetweenour Godand us,theremust be more scriptures thatIneverseenbeforenow,orunderstoodtheirmeaning!

Take this bible verse to say the fullness of the word ‘’compassion’’ in it and seehowitchangesthewayitistold.

Micah 7:19King James Bible

He will turn again, he will have* * ‘’sympathy,’’ ‘’empathy, ‘’concern,’’ ‘’kindness,’’ ‘’consideration,’’ and ‘’care,’’ upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and thou wilt ‘’cast all their sins into the depths of the sea. ’’

When God says he will cast all your sins, he doesn’t mean some will be kept back,soyoucanwallowinguiltfeeling,sorrythatyoudidthissinorthatsin, NO! When God says ‘’all’’ he means ‘’all,’’ there is nothing left that he can even chide you for. And the word ‘’chide,’’ means, ‘’reproach, scold, reprimand, express disapproval, rebuke, blame, take to task, and reprove. ’’

Colossians 1 Living Bible (TLB)

20 It was through what his Son did that God cleared a path for everything to come to him all things in heaven and on earth for Christ’s death on the cross has made peace with God for *all* by his blood. 21 This includes you who were once so far away from God. You were his enemies and hated him and were separated from him by your evil thoughts and actions, yet now he has brought you back as his friends. 22 He has done this through the death on the cross of his own human body, and now as a result Christ has brought you into the very presence of God, and you are standing there before him with nothing left against you nothing left that he could even *chide* you for; 23 the only condition is that you fully believe the Truth, standing in it steadfast and firm, strong in the Lord, convinced of the Good News that Jesus died for you, and never shifting from trusting him to save you.

InmostofthisbookIhaveusedscripturesfromthe‘’OldTestament’’andthat wasquiteunusualforme; inallmybooksupuntilnowIonlyusedthe ‘New Testament’andnottheOldbecausethe‘’New’isfilledwithgloriousrevelation fromtheHolySpiritandIcouldwriteanother300bookswritingonthe‘’New

We use the Old to change the new way of worshipping God and adoring him andtolearnfromourforefathers.

Reverence God daily, bowdownbeforehimrealizingthathehastakenaway everysinandfaultforthedivinewordsaysinEphesians 1.

Ephesians 1Living Bible (TLB)

3 How we praise God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with *every blessing* in heaven because we belong to Christ.

4 Long ago, even before he made the world, God chose us to be his very own through what Christ would do for us; he decided *then* to make us *holy in his eyes, without a single fault* we who stand before him*covered with his love*. 5 His unchanging plan has always been to adopt us into his own family by sending Jesus Christ to die for us. And he did this ‘’because he wanted to!’’

Togive‘’God reverence’’ forallthathehasgiventousissomethingweshould have great joy in, realizing what he gave us *individually,* the ‘’gifts and powers and presents’’ forusindependently.

Ihave‘’reverence for God’’ notjustbecauseheisthe Almighty Creator, and that he created me before he made this present world as a spirit being in heaven with him, but because I decided for Jesus when presented with the salvation message, and now also because I see all the things that God done through Jesus, and by ‘’joining us ‘’together’’ with Jesus in spirit,’’ I see the breathtaking signs of his mighty love for me and so I ‘’reverence him in

deepest gratitude’’ from the depths of my innermost being, and I conclude this book, giving you room to think of the great things he has done for you also,andsobringyou tothat placeof‘’reverence.’’ Andnow searchtheNew TestamentandseewhereyoushouldhavereverenceforJesustheHolySpirit andFatherGod,andyouwillbeastoundedtoseemany,manyscripturesthat letyouknowthathedeservesthegreatestof reverence.
