Yes Lord, I will do your will

Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.

"Sacrifice or oblation you wished not, but ears open to obedience you gave me.
Burnt offerings or sin‑offerings you sought not; then said I, “Behold I come.”

Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.

“In the written scroll it is prescribed for me,
To do your will, O my God, is my delight, and your law is within my heart!”

Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.

I announced your justice in the vast assembly; I did not restrain my lips, as you, O LORD, know."  (Psalm 40:7-8a, 8b-9, 10 RM)

Please No Unbelief. No Doubt.

May Unbelief never prevent you from entering your Promised Land!

"No unbelief or distrust made him waver (doubtingly question) concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong and was empowered by faith as he gave praise and glory to God,
Fully satisfied and assured that God was able and mighty to keep His word and to do what He had promised."

"That is why his faith was credited to him as righteousness (right standing with God).
(Rom 4: 20  -  22 AMP)

I will testify to you Lord.

"The Spirit of truth will testify to me, says the Lord, and you also will testify."
      -  Yes Lord, I will testify to you!

" When they take you before synagogues and before rulers and authorities, do not worry about how or what your defense will be or about what you are to say.
For the Holy Spirit will teach you at that moment what you should say.”

Jesus was crushed for our sake

"The LORD was pleased to crush him in infirmity."

"Through his suffering, my servant shall justify many, and their guilt he shall bear."  (Isaiah 53: 10 - 11 RM)

Lord, let your mercy be on us, as we place our trust in you.

"For we do not have a high priest
   who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses,
   but one who has similarly been tested in every way,
   yet without sin.
So let us confidently approach the throne of grace
   to receive mercy and to find grace for timely help."  (Hebrews 4: 14 -  16 RM)

God cares deeply for you

All the wild animals are fed by God.

"Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? And [yet] not one of them is forgotten or uncared for in the presence of God."

"But [even] the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Do not be struck with fear or seized with alarm; you are of greater worth than many [flocks] of sparrows."
(Luke 12: 6-7  AMP)

My soul is waiting for the LORD

With the Lord there is mercy, and fullness of redemption.

"Out of the depths I cry to you, O LORD; LORD, hear my voice!
Let your ears be attentive
to my voice in supplication."

With the Lord there is mercy, and fullness of redemption.

"I trust in the LORD;
 my soul trusts in his word.
My soul waits for the LORD
more than sentinels wait for the dawn."  (Psalm 130: 1-2, 5-6  RM)

With the Lord there is mercy, and fullness of redemption.

" Let nothing trouble you,
let nothing frighten you.
All things are passing;
God never changes.
Patience obtains all things.
He who possesses God lacks nothing: God alone suffices."  (St Teresa of Avila)

The reason why God is so patient with us

Don't despise God's kindness and patience

"But you who are judging another for doing what you do yourself, are you hoping that God's decision will not take effect against you? Or is it nothing to you that God had pity on you, waiting and putting up with you for so long, not seeing that in his pity God's desire is to give you a change of heart?"
(Romans 2:3-4 BBE)

"Only in God is my soul at rest;
from him comes my salvation.
He only is my rock and my salvation, my stronghold; I shall not be disturbed at all. (Psalm 62: 2 - 3 RM)

Are you ashamed of sharing the GoodNews?

“Don’t be afraid!” he said. “I bring you good news that will bring great joy to all people." (Luke 2: 10 NLT)

"It's news I'm most proud to proclaim, this extraordinary Message of God's powerful plan to rescue everyone who trusts him, starting with Jews and then right on to everyone else!

"God's way of putting people right shows up in the acts of faith, confirming what Scripture has said all along: "The person in right standing before God by trusting him really lives."
(Romans 1:16 MSG)
