Part ONE of TWO: To Emery, Love and Healing Prayers in Jesus's Name, Dear One. You are His Precious Child and Daughter!

A Call for Immediate and Ongoing Prayer for a Young Woman of God, Full of Life!

(&&&Part Two of Two link at very end&&&)

Hi, Dear Friends in Christ!  This urging to write today came from an inspiration from the Holy Spirit, I certainly do believe.  I am writing about my very dear friend Sandy, Sandy's husband, and their daughter Emery.  Emery has a  beloved sister from the same family, including the sister's darling family. From early in school onward through decades later now, Sandy and I have grown even closer as we share our love, trust, and faith in our Savior and LORD Jesus Christ. It has been and continues to be a thrilling path in Life, the forever kind, indeed!  There is nothing in the world that compares in having a relationship with Jesus.  He is the only One Who can save you, no one else ever.  He died and took the place for your sin, was resurrected, and then later ascended into Heaven to sit at the right hand of the Father to intercede for you and me.

Several months ago I put a posting on the blog asking for prayer for Emery, who is fighting a very difficult intestinal battle for years. (*At the end of today's posting, you can read the initial posting about Emery.)

In Emery's young, beautiful Life, she has seen many doctors, had countless opinions and therapies, and yet even with some improvement, thank the Almighty; however, as of yet, Emery wants complete healing.  I want that for her with every fiber of my being, and her family...well, you can imagine the intensity of their undying love and hope in Christ for complete wellness!  Emery herself- is always hopeful in God!

Both Sandy and I absolutely believe in the healing power of our LORD Almighty!  Each of us has experienced miraculous healing.  For each person, only by the grace and power of Holy God, do any of us have healing of our bodies physically, mentally and emotionally of the mind, spiritually of our spirit and soul...Continued in next paragraph...  Those of us who have chosen Jesus as our Savior, once we have passed on and gone to Heaven to be with our Father, Son, and God's Holy Spirit (Who indwells each of us who are His the moment we ask Jesus into our lives).  After a prayer for Emery**, please read and say from your heart and mind, a*** Salvation Prayer to accept Jesus Christ forever and ever into eternity, where perfection will abide with each of us and together!  No more arguments, sins, hurt feelings, death, devastation of mind and body, evil trick from the evil one, complete wellness, no more tears and much more!  Jesus is making a mansion there for each of us. A mansion where we each live and go out daily basking in the sun that comes from the Light of the World, Jesus!  No need for sun or moon anywhere, for He is there forever and always!

I Am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life

 “Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God;^[a] believe also in me. ² In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you?^{[b] 3} And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. John 14:1-3 English Standard Version (ESV)

Sandy and I absolutely believe in the healing power of God.  We have experienced it, and we pray for others for same.  For each person, only by the grace and power of Holy God, do any of us have healing, which includes medicine, doctors, prayer warriors, and so forth.  And Yes!  There are definitely times where people have been sick one moment, and completely well, the next!  Every good and perfect thing comes from above! Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.  
James 1:17-21, ESV Every single breath we take is because of God's love for us and by His power!

During a Bible study on the book of Daniel in the Bible, we learned that for healing, God can stop the affliction, He can take us through the affliction to healing, or He can take us to Heaven, which is the final Healing!

It is Truth that God wants us healthy and whole.  In the Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve had everything in perfection from their Heavenly Father!  God walked in the cool of the day with Eve and Adam in the Garden!  After Christ's triumphant return, we will have it once and for all, unceasing, never to stop, ever again!  (It was lost for humanity because Eve and Adam chose to believe the lies from the Serpent, Satan. God warned them not to eat from the fruit of that one tree, of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, or they would surely die!  They did eat from the forbidden tree, and all of the trouble got worse.  God made them leave the Garden because if they stayed, they would grow old and horrid, but never die within the Tree of Life (forever).  God had His Son Jesus would come to save us!  Forever and Always!)

Those of us who have accepted God's free gift (NOT free for Jesus- He paid the most terrible Price- ALL sin ever was, is, or would be HEAPED upon Him, and the Father had to turn away from Jesus!) of Salvation and LORDship through His Son, Jesus Christ are living on Earth as it is now in God's Kingdom, and we will  have forever Life in Heaven, God's Heavenly Kingdom, when we pass away.  God sent His Son Jesus, fully Man and fully God to make the way for all to be saved---lest not one fall! 

The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance. 2 Peter 3:9

However, with the most extreme sadness possible or imaginable, some folks will not accept Jesus' gift of Salvation and LORDship for their lives!  Not everyone makes the choice to live with God forever.

PLEASE PRAY NOW FOR Emery to be healed of this intestinal problem, that she will fully recover and go forward with her Savior and God!  Thank you eternally...

Dear Heavenly Father,
**Please hear our prayer for Emery!  We know you know exactly who she is and who this young woman is in You!  She is a believer, praise You!  Her family believes, praise You!  We are so thankful, truly Dear LORD God.  You knew Emery before the foundations of the world, before she was in her mother Sandy's womb...We ask for complete and total healing of Emery's body and person of this disease, to be released of the burden and worry.  She needs to be freed to act fully on Your behalf for Your Kingdom!  Her family will be so appreciative!  We want Emery to be fully able to love, to enjoy Life, and to help others...to Live for You, Jesus!  You are the Only One Who can heal her.  For Emery's salvation and eternal Life- and her family's- we Praise You, Almighty God!  In Jesus' Name, Amen.

 I was completely healed one night about 11 years ago at Bible study and prayer with fellow women, healed of the migraines that I had for 23 years- every doctor, medicine and combination thereof tried, therapies, lots of prayer.  One day (again, ****link for the blog posting), I was so hopeful at a prayer and Bible study meeting, and 4 Christian women came 'round about me, anointed me with oil on my forehead, and prayed for my migraines to flee and for God to make me well!  They prayed for 10-20 minutes, conversation between them and me, tears and hurts, then the migraines were gone, just like bringing a knife down on a loaf of bread and slicing it...health, pain gone, and it never came back like that again!!!  Part of the key is this when you are prayed for healing: THANK GOD and PRAISE HIM for His loving goodness, His lovingkindness, and mercy, and keep on believing and praising God even if a little pain or symptoms start to return.  Also, sometimes a healing from the LORD comes about "over time"~~~!  Sometimes, we are not healed miraculously, but keep on staying close to Jesus, read the Bible, pray, and fellowship with other true believers~!


Friends, if you are unsure of your salvation in Christ Jesus, or if you have fallen away, never done it before, here is an example Salvation Prayer or Prayer of Salvation.  If you truly want this in your mind and heart, please read it to the LORD.  He will more assuredly LISTEN, HEAR YOU and ACCEPT YOU now for His Kingdom, continue to walk with you all the days of your Life here and then onward into Heaven and to eternity with Him and your other loved ones and friends~!  You will meet people you have never known, also, and ah---the stories and times of Joy you will have with the Savior!!!  Unspeakable JOY and LOVE, no hardship ever again!
You may read prayer to God, or you can tell Him in your own words;
God bless you in your decision for Christ!

PRAYER OF SALVATION

Dear God, I know I'm a sinner.  I'm sorry and ask for Your forgiveness.  I now declare with my mouth, "Jesus is Lord."
I believe in my heart that He died for my sins, and You raised Him from the dead.
 In Jesus' Name, Amen.

FRIENDS, Accept God- Your Lord and Savior Jesus, the Messiah and Christ, Today! Be Sure to Go to Heaven with God!

"Forgiven" by Thomas Blackshear II

Easter, Good Friday, Every Day of Your Life into Forever!  
A Salvation Prayer!
Actually, this message is for every day to start living in God's Kingdom as a believer, then on to Heaven with Him forever- the only Place you would ever want to be,

dear Friends!
Updated, April 3, 2020 for Easter,
April 12, 2020

If you have already accepted Jesus Christ as Your Lord and your Savior, Rejoice!!  Praise Him!  God inhabits the praises of His people.

Psalm 22:3

If you need to recommit, do so, please!  You can get back on the right track, make a difference in your own life as well as your family's, loved ones, friends- and even your enemies- for the BEST.

If you do not believe or have not fully accepted Christ (unsure, half-heartedly), oh, please do accept Him now!  
Death from this Earth? Assuredly! 

Only God knows how and when.

You truly are not your own, folks.  I did not bring myself into the world- this is my one life (no matter what some occult ideas say). 

I will die some day, and I know where I am going- straight to Heaven with my God, the Only One, the LORD Almighty~~~ I know that I am definitely joining my mother; I believe from our conversations and hope that my dad is awaiting me in Heaven; my Grandma and Grandpa Binder; my so sweet Grandpa McCoy, and I hope my Grandma McCoy, whom I adored my whole childhood; Uncle Jack and Aunt Velma; Uncle Paul and Aunt Helen; Aunts Virginia, Pearl, Ruth and Ruby and her husband- kind Uncle George (all of these aunts had Jesus-believing husbands who surely must be in Heaven); Aunt Opal, (twin to Ruby) who died as a very young child with Bright's Disease, whom I have not met yet; and Uncle Harry who died working in the oil fields with his dad and brothers before my mother was born, and the list goes on. 

Oh, I know certainly my close friend Cheryl Patton will be there because my husband and I saw her two times before her illness overcame her, and Cheryl nodded so happily and said, indeed, she believed in Jesus!! My beloved mentor, Phyllis Del Vecchio, whom Christ put in my life to harken me back to Him.  She laughed and talked so joyfully about Jesus day in and day out as we taught together, and she answered my very curious and serious questions about Him to her...  I cannot wait to see these loved ones! 

However, I am completely happy to stay here with the LORD for now, to stay with my blessed- my family, church, dear friends and Bible study, new friends to make and to meet- even the enemies of God. 

I intend to say and to do, including writing this blog I hold dear for Christ until He calls me to my true HOME with Him.

Why Do We Say, Good Friday?! 

It is the darkest yet, most glorious day of our Lord and King, Christ Jesus- and for His believers! God was accomplishing what He knew that He would do for mankind, for us, before the foundations of the world- all of which and of whom He created.

Lord Jesus, God the Father's Son, (the Son of God), was taking on all the sin that was or ever would be committed by His children.  The Almighty God wanted His children to stay permanently in the Garden of Eden with Him and continue to walk in the cool of the day together, but we would choose to listen to the lying, deceitful serpent, Satan.

Jesus, the Son of God, was sent by the Father God for the express purpose of saving us- all of us- because we each fall below the mark that is Holy.  (Each one of us has the choice, free will, to accept Christ as Lord and Savior or to reject Him.)

Bible Gateway - find Scripture from the Bible, read commentaries, etc.

Romans 2:23-26 (NRSV) New Revised Standard Version

²³ since all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God; ²⁴ they are now justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, ²⁵ whom God put forward as a sacrifice of atonement^[a] by his blood, effective through faith. He did this to show his righteousness, because in his divine forbearance he had passed over the sins previously committed; ²⁶ it was to prove at the present time that he himself is righteous and that he justifies the one who has faith in Jesus.^[b]

God cannot have sin in His sight, for He is completely Holy, so He sent His most Beloved, His Son Jesus, the second part of the Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit- to live as the Only fully God/ fully Man Who ever was and ever shall be.  Some called/call Jesus a Prophet- oh, my- He is much more than that.  Jesus is the Living Water, the Bread of Life, I AM Who I AM, God.  Jesus is still alive forevermore!!!

There were other people who purported to be God.  Where are they today?  Are they alive?  No, they are not.  Not unless they changed and turned around completely, accepting Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior, then when they put their trust and faith in Christ Jesus of Nazareth, in Heaven, Who is the same yesterday, today and forever, they~ any of those people~ indeed, are with Him forever and ever.

Jesus was born of the virgin, young and sweet Mary, who was betrothed to Joseph.  An angel visited each one to explain that Mary would have a Baby, Who would be the Promised One of their faith...they were Israelite, Jews.  Joseph did not put Mary away as was the custom.  Instead, they married but remained in abstinence from each other until Jesus was born.  The Holy Spirit of God had come upon her to bring Baby Jesus to Earth for His great mission.

The night before His crucifixion, Jesus sweated blood as He was praying to the Father in Gethsemane...Jesus knowing what would come the next day. Jesus would suffer like no one ever has because of the horrific treatment at the hands of those mocking, beating, and killing Him, but especially because Jesus did take ALL of OUR sin from each and every person ever born- past, present, and future.

It was so awful and terrible that the Father had to look away from His Beloved Son, and then Jesus said, "Why has thou forsaken Me?"  Jesus knew why, and as has been said thousands of times, Jesus could have called down thousands of His angels to rescue Him, but He did as the Father wanted.  Jesus is God, also, so He wanted to give Himself to be crucified, buried and resurrected in three days to complete the at least 108 prophecies in the Bible about the One and Only Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
His Blood shed on Good Friday is our guarantee of His Presence as a Jason Upton song says from The Sound of Heaven cd by David and Nicole Binion with The Lion of Judah by Jason.

Jesus' Crucifixion, Death, and Resurrection Paid for You!

Wiping that Sin Away Forever, for Your Eternal Life.

Beloved People!  Accept Jesus, the Christ and the Messiah, right now.  Then, you know for absolutely sure- no second-guessing, those "little" worries that fly around your head, the unknowing and wondering, the lies that the devil most-assuredly is telling you- Satan knows your weaknesses well (he tricked Eve and Adam, and they were God's first people in the Garden of Eden!  The LORD lovingly warned them...).  We human beings are made in the image of our Creator, God.  We are like Him, but we will never be Him.  He was and always is.  We are His most loved, created beings, whom He gives free will to choose.  What an honor!!  It is a mighty and amazing honor.  I am so very thankful that He made Himself known to me, and I chose Him. 
Thinking that makes me cry with Joy, every day.

Here is a Salvation Prayer.  It does not have to be just-so, i.e., exact words...tell God in  your own words, or please do use these.  He knows your heart and every corner of your mind- your beauty, your dark thoughts- every cell in your body because He made you in His image.

If you are serious, even if you are unsure (once you step over that line of faith, you will see changes and you will begin to understand the Bible and God, the body of Christ- his fellowship in church, etc.)  No one, not even the very smartest, true Christian or scholar knows everything about God- Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.  However!  You will be completely forgiven and redeemed and every day of the rest of your life here, you will grow closer to God (pray and talk to Him each day; surround yourself with loving, fellow believers; reach out to those in need;
and~~~spread the Good News, the Gospel of Jesus!)

God loves you more than you can imagine, and it is much more than any human being or group of human beings are capable.

A Salvation Prayer

Dear Heavenly Father,

I believe that Jesus died for me.  He took the pain and the suffering to pay for my sin.  He redeemed me!  The blameless Jesus, the Lamb of God, arose from the grave three days later.  He was here on earth and seen by hundreds of people.  Days later He went to the Father in Heaven to sit at His right hand and to intercede for me and us.  When I die, I want to be in Heaven with You.  I thank you that Jesus went to Heaven so that now the Holy Spirit can live within me, my mind and heart- to guide, direct and comfort me.  Help me walk with You each day, God.  In Jesus' Name, Amen!

Jesus Death and Resurrection Foretold in the Book of John

Thank you lostseed.com for the picture of Jesus after the cross at Calvary where He was killed for our sins.  It is entitled "Forgiven", and it is painted by Thomas Blackshear.  A young man, with the hammer he used to crucify the Lord and Savior, is depicted as falling into Jesus' arms with great remorse and the letting go, relenting, and submitting to the power of the Lord because He loves us and is greater than us.  This is an essential part of accepting Christ.  People who refuse to give themselves to Christ will not be saved.  I urge YOU, please, accept the Redemption that Forgiveness that only He can give you.  Step over that line to Him, Dear Friend, no matter what you have done.  He will forgive you as though it never happened, indeed.

God bless you this Easter and always, Friends.  I love you;

God loves you exponentially, incalculably more!  MOST!
