Psalms 100
MAKE a joyful shout unto the Lord, all you lands!
Serve the Lord with gladness;
Come before His Presence with singing.
Know that the Lord, He is God.
It is He who has made us ; and not we ourselves,
We are His people and the sheep of His pastures.
Enter into His gates with thanksgiving.
And into His courts with praise.
Be thankful to Him, amd bless His name.
For the Lord is good;
His mercy is everlasting.
And His truth endures to all generations..

His Name is Jesus
Kathie Walters:
The Greatest Key You Will Ever Have: His Name is Jesus!
This is the Greatest Key to Your Spirit Life You Will Ever Have!
Jesus is altogether lovely; He saves us, and He keeps us by His power from sin and death.
He has given to us His robe of righteousness. He extends His mercy, longsuffering, lovingkindness, tenderness, healing and compassion.
He is our Shield, our Defender, our Rock, and our Hiding Place.
He is our Provider, Counselor, Great Shepherd, our Friend, who is closer than a brother, and He is our Love. He is the Husbandman, the Keeper of the vineyard. He is the Source of all blessing.
He restores, rescues, forgives and redeems.
He is our Victor, the Captain of Hosts, Mighty in battle. He is our Banner, and our Standard, and He is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
Jesus is crowned with glory and honor; He is our Savior, Sanctifier, Redeemer, and the merciful and faithful High Priest.
He is the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End. He was dead, but now He is ALIVE forevermore, and He is seated at the right hand of God – it is finished!
He destroyed death and He led captivity captive.
He is the Great Apostle of our faith; He is the Supreme Sacrifice; and the spotless and blameless Lamb.
He is our Anchor and our Strong Tower; our Shield and our Defender; and He was the Ancient of Days before the first day began.
He is the Forerunner, the Firstborn among many brethren. He is the surety of a better testament; He comes from the unchangeable priesthood; and He is able to save to the uttermost.
His Presence doesn't cast any shadow because He is the Light that lights the Heavenly City. He is the Light of the world and the Giver of life.
He is the Door, the Way, and the Truth.
He is the Treasure, the Pearl of great price, and more precious than the finest gold.
He was the Rock of Ages before any mountain peaks were formed.
He was the Bread of life before there was any grain. He was the Lily of the Valley before there were any flowers on the earth.
He is the Eternal Intercessor. He is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, higher than the Heavens; He makes His enemies His footstool, and laughs at His adversaries.
He is the Tree of life; He is consecrated forever, and makes us sanctified forever by His precious Blood.
He is the Minister of the Sanctuary, and He is the Mediator of the New covenant.
He is the High Priest of GOOD THINGS to come; He's the Lion of Judah; and the Lamb that was slain. He is the New and Living Way.
He was born contrary to the laws of birth. He lived contrary to the laws of life. He healed contrary to the laws of medicine.
He was tried and condemned contrary to the laws of justice, and He arose contrary to the laws of death and the grave.
He ascended contrary to the laws of gravity, and He is coming back again contrary to the expectation of the world!
He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. He is the Great Shepherd of ALL THE SHEEP.
HE IS THE HOLDER OF THE KEYS; HE IS THE AMEN; AND HE IS THE FINAL WORD...
He is qualified to open the Book, and He is the expression of the Heart of the Father.
His love has no limits; His grace has no measure; His power has no boundaries known unto men; out of His infinite riches, He gives and gives and gives again.
He is our nearest Kinsman, and is qualified to redeem us.
He is THE WORD MADE FLESH and the Honey in the rock.
He is high and lifted up; He is the Bright and Morning Star, and the fairest of 10,000.
He is more precious than gold, and He's the glory and lifter of our heads.
He is the righteous Judge; He is a refuge for the oppressed; and He doesn't forget the cry of the humble.
He bore our sorrows and our grief; He was despised and rejected of men; and now He controls the destiny of the nations – the kingdoms of this world are going to become the Kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and forever.
He is our portion and our inheritance; His garments smell of sweet myrrh; and His breath is as sweet apples. He is a very present help in trouble.
He hides us under the shadow His wings and keeps us as the apple of His eye.
He is our High Tower, and He makes the hills shake, the mountains melt, and the Heavens bow.
He pulled back the curtain of eternity and stepped out on the stage of time for one brief moment, and then stepped back again into eternity; but in that one brief moment of time, He sealed the fate of every man and woman and fixed their destiny.
He is the bright Candle in the darkness because He is the Light of life.
He is the Branch, and the Root of Jesse.
HE IS THE GREAT WAVE MAKER FROM GALILEE.
He makes the crooked paths straight and the rough places plain.
He split history and divided the ages.
He is the greatest Teacher the world has ever known, and He is the Baptizer in the Holy Ghost.
He preserves the faithful, and He is the resurrection and the life.
He spoke and framed the world; He makes our way perfect and makes our feet like hinds' feet, and He causes us to walk in high places. He is able to comfort, guide and bless.
He spoke, and the heavens unrolled themselves, and the galaxies were born. He spoke, and the streams and the rivers wound their way across the earth. The rose began to blush, and the violets cast their fragrance, and the birds began to sing. Colors wove themselves into a rainbow. He spoke, and a handful of dust became a living soul.
He turns our mourning into dancing and girds us with gladness.
Let Me Tell You About His Voice
His voice is powerful upon the waters, full of majesty, like thunder, it breaks the cedars, divides the flames, shakes the wilderness, makes the hinds to calve, discovers the forests, and sets the mountains in their place.
His voice stilled the seas and shook the earth and melted the hills.
His voice is as the sound of many waters; He spoke and calmed the storm; He spoke and gave life to the dead, brought healing to the sick, strength to the weak, and forgiveness to the sinner.
Herod could not kill Him. The Pharisees could not confound Him, and satan could not trick Him. Sickness could not withstand Him; devils could not stay near Him; and the waves could not drown Him.
The rabble could not disturb Him; death could not corrupt Him; Hell could not keep Him; and the grave could not contain Him!
Gravitation could not restrain Him, and God has highly exalted Him and given Him a Name above every name, and at His Name every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess that He is Lord of all.
He led captivity captive and gave gifts to men; He brought a stream out of a rock, and fed the people in the wilderness; He fed 5,000 with two loaves and a few fishes.
He is Savior to the lost, healing to the sick; He is hearing to the deaf and sight to the blind. He is cleansing to the leper and strength to the weak. He is comfort to the oppressed, hope to the hopeless, and help to the helpless. He is a brother to the friendless, and a friend to the brotherless, and He is LIFE to the dead.
He is infinite, eternal, glorious and full of majesty.
One day in His courts is better than a thousand; wouldn't you rather be a doorkeeper in His house than dwell in the tents of the world?
He is the Covenant Keeper – keeping covenant with covenant breakers.
He is sweeter than all the flowers; He is the Lover of our Soul; and the Keeper of our hearts.
He is music to the poet, and a song to the worshiper. His Name has been whispered by thousands upon thousands of dying soldiers on the battlefields of the ages.
His Name has been the battle cry of those who fought for righteousness and truth.
HE IS THE KING OF ALL KINGS AND EVERY NATION WILL BOW TO HIM....
HIS NAME IS JESUS.

Way Down Memory Lane- 30 years ago
I couldn't believe it! but it is true..
I've got some friends who looked me up via FB recently and these are seriousy precious people from my 'wonder years ' back then... back almost 30 years..
Those were such good times, when we were all so 'sold- out' serving the Lord so fervently during the ISCA era- where we sang, danced, share or preached our heart out- not witholding anything.. so much young energy and so much zeal during those secondary school years before we went on our separate ways and imagine after 30 years we are reconnected .. how awesome!! (despite of some apparent changes to our physical outlooks - we all grew up and matured graciously but somehow I still feel such warmth and closeness to those whom I am privileged to be in contact again...)
Wow!! Amazing and totally overwhelming- and someone actually have some pixz from that era!! I hope to have my " way down memory lane " file ie my personal musuem archive soon..lol

God will fulfill all His promises
but He is not obligated to fulfill all our potentials
*********
Trials are not enemies of faith but are opportunities
to prove God's faithfulness.
*********
Only those whose souls have struck the deepest notes of penitence
can reach the highest notes of praise.
-- Richard DeHaan
***********
Many times disillusionment comes simply because
our circumstances don't fit our concept of
who God is and how He works.

WHO do you belong to...
know that...
He is the first and the last, the beginning and the end
He's the Keeper of creation, the Creator of all
He's the Architect of the universe and the Manager of all time
He always was, always is, always will be;
unmoved, unchanged, undefeated and never undone
He was bruised but brought healing
He was pierced but ease pains
He was persecuted but brought freedom
He was dead but brings life
He is risen and brings power and raised to bring peace
The world cannot understand Him, the armies cannot defeat Him
The school cannot explain Him, the leaders, they can't ignore Him
Herod couldn't kill Him, Nero couldn't crush Him
New Age cannot replace Him and Oprah cannot explain Him away
remind yourself that
He is the Light, He is Love, He is Longevity and He is the Lord
He is goodness and kindness and faithfulness and He is God
He is Holy, Righteous, Powerful and Pure..
His Ways are right, His Word eternal
His will unchanging and His Mind is on us
He's our Saviour, our Guide, our Peace, our Joy
our Comfort, our Lord and He rules our lives
I serve Him because
His bond is Love, His yoke is easy
His burdens are light, His goal for us is Abundant Life
I follow Him because
He is the wisdom of the wise, the power of the powerful
the Ancient of Days, the Ruler of rulers, the Leader of leaders
His Goal is a Relationship with me
He will never leave you, never forsake you
never mislead you, never forget you
He'll never overlook you and never cancel your appointment in His appointment book
When you fall He'll lift you up, when you fail He'll forgive you
When you are weak He is Strong, when you are lost He is your Way
When you are afraid He is your Courage, when you stumble He will steady you
When you are hurt He's gonna heal you, when you are broken He will mend you
When you are blind He will lead you, when you are hungry He will feed you
When you face trials He will is with you, when you face persecution He shields you
When you face problems He will comfort you, when you face loss He will provide for you
and when we face death He will carry us all home to meet Him
He is everything to everybody, everywhere, every time and in every way
He is GOD and that's WHOSE you are...

Assurance in Jesus
May Jesus assure you that as you follow Him
you will never meet a fear He cannot conquer,
you will never face an enemy He cannot defeat,
you will never enter a battle He cannot win,
you will never have a need He cannot meet,
you will never face a temptation He cannot overcome,
you will never have a burden He cannot lift,
you will never face a problem He cannot solve,
you will never have a bondage He cannot break,
you will never have a moment when He does not care,
you will never have a time when He is not there.
I have strength for all things in Christ Who empowers me [I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him Who infuses inner strength into me; I am self-sufficient in Christ's sufficiency]. Philippians 4:13 AMP
