To the Lovely, Strong People of Hong Kong and Taiwan & A Salvation Prayer

 

  

What you must know is this: 

Jesus loves you, simply and purely.  

He sees your heart and mind, your struggles, your hurts, disappointments, and your fears.  

He hears your laughter and knows whom you love.  He loves you unconditionally, Friend!!!  

He knows each thought that you have, your dreams and goals in Life.

Please know that I am praying for you!  I want you to keep your freedom and have no strife.  

God loves you more than I can say, more than I can know, or dream.  Please read The Holy Bible and pray; you will see and experience how he loves you, beyond any calculation, more than we can understand on earth.

The reason that I am writing this special posting, just to you! is that my heart goes toward you beautiful children of God.  I am praying fervently for your desires and dreams, and I will continue praying for you, Dear Friends!  God bless you in Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, always and forever. 

Jesus said: (John 15:12 and John 15:17.)    12 “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.   17 These things I command you, so that you will love one another.

(John 3:16, NKJV, New King James Version) For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. (Romans 3:23) for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. (Romans 6:23) For the wages of sin is death, but the ^[a]gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

God loves you and each one of us more than we can fully know now.  I so hope and pray that you have asked Jesus into your Life. Please, if you have not accepted Him as your Lord and personal Savior, do so now!  Your Life is worth everything to God, and He will protect you.  God the Father gave up His One and Only Son to give us Life eternal. Jesus created you in His own image! The Holy Spirit will lead, guide, and comfort you.  When your Life has ended here, you will go to Heaven to be forever with Jesus and your family and many new friends!  

This posting will bring more awareness to people everywhere, who will in turn be praying for your safety, salvation, and freedom!!!  People watch the news, read online, and read newspapers...  Many folks pray for you all over the world. The Lord God wants all of us to have His salvation.  He is the only One Who has the power to do so for us.

The Word Became Flesh

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome[a] 

John 1:1-5 New International Version (NIV)

A Brief Summary about Christ Jesus

Jesus lived a perfect and faultless life on earth, born of Mary and the Holy Spirit of Almighty God.  He worked as a carpenter with his earthly father Joseph, then when he was thirty years old, Jesus began His ministry.  He preached the Truth.  He performed many miracles. He said that He was God, which is the Truth, but the Jewish priests and leaders would not have it: Jesus was undermining their rule.  At the age of 33, Jesus was such a threat to the Jewish leaders they told Caesar that Jesus was ruining their Roman empire and would bring them down.  The Roman soldiers arrested Jesus and beat and tortured Him, nailing Jesus on the cross at Calvary. Jesus was fully God and fully Man, the Only One.  The perfect, unblemished Lamb of God gave up His life for you and me.  Taking on all of the sin that had ever been or would ever be, He took my sin, He died and was buried in a tomb with mammoth rocks over the sepulcher to secure the burial.  In three days, Jesus arose and walked out of His tomb. For 40 days He was seen by over 500 people.  With Jesus' followers/disciples watching Him, Jesus ascended to Heaven to sit at the right hand of His Father, where Jesus intercedes for us.

We believe in the One true God Almighty, Triune in Person and Spirit: God the Father, the Son Christ Jesus, and the Holy Spirit, Who comes to live inside each of us the moment that we say Yes! I believe in You, Jesus, Son of God!!!

If you have not accepted Christ, and want to be in God's Kingdom beginning right now on earth and then one day go to Heaven forevermore, pray this prayer.  You can also tell God in your own words.  Jesus is fully Man and fully God.  He is listening to your every hope and desire.  You are His daughter or son, again loving us more than we can know right now.

There is nothing magical about this particular prayer.  When you pray it and mean it, Yes! you will be saved and go to Heaven in time to be with saved family and the Lord God Almighty.  If you want to tell Father God in your own words, please do so.  If you have fallen away, read this prayer.

A Salvation Prayer

Dear Heavenly Father,

I want to give my Life to You.  You made me in Your own image! You knew about me before the beginning of the world because You, Great God, know everything that has happened, is happening, and will be happening.  I want to be Your child, Lord and Savior, for now and eternity! 

I have fallen short, and I am sorry; thank You for being so generous, loving, gracious, and compassionate that You want to be with me protecting, loving, listening, and talking together. You have redeemed me, Lord, when You died on the cross for me, were buried, then arose, and seeing many people, You ascended to Heaven.  I know I will make mistakes, but You will forgive me, instruct me, and guide, comfort me.  You do not accuse Your believers; that is the devil.  Now that I accept and welcome you, God, into my Life forevermore, Your Holy Spirit will come to be with me constantly to guide, protect, and soothe me.  He will give me conviction!  Thank You forever, Almighty God, my personal Savior Jesus Christ, and Holy Spirit- You are Three Persons in One, and yet You are Spirit.  I love and thank you, all glory to You always and forever, in Jesus' Name, Amen.

Brother and Sister, Congratulations!!!  You are God's daughter or son and in His Kingdom ever here beginning on Earth and then in His timing, Heaven!  What a mighty, smart, and loving decision for Him and yourself  you have made, Friend!  I wish I could shake your hand and give you a Bible.

We are praying for all peoples, especially those in extreme hardship, despair, and suppression/oppression.

God bless His Creation, always and forever.

God in Jesus Christ Restores What the Locusts Have Taken in Your Life! & A Prayer of Salvation!

~Christ Jesus Looking at His Ever-Increasing Kingdom~

      All of the Earth and Heavens are His, and
Every Person and Thing Within It.

  He is our Creator.

   Jehovah- Jireh,  

     our Provider.  

He Loves You more than we can fully know yet. 

However!  Keep drawing near to Him,

and He will draw near to you!

⁸ Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. ⁹ Be wretched and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. ¹⁰ Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.

James 4:8-10 English Standard Version (ESV)   

And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.

I Peter 5:10, English Standard Version, ESV

(Picture above of Jesus by Greg Olsen THANK YOU!
http://www.godisreal.today/pictures-of-jesus/)

              ~I can see God's honor coming back to us, His reward,
Yes!- even His vindication to us for our sufferings in Christ Jesus!~

       It is clear: the strife, hurts, disappoints, deep grief: physical, emotional, spiritual and psychological wrong-doings will be made aright.  In fact, they are being made right now!  And it gets even better!

Can't you see it?  Have not you seen them even in your own life?  Sometimes we wonder and worry!  Will I ever get over the damage that has been done to me and mine, my beloved?

  ^&&&And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:7 ESV

Plus, Read and relish Psalm 91, my favorite!  If you need reassurance, here it is!
Psalm 91

      
Today, it has become even more obvious how the Almighty has and is restoring ease and even honor to our church; this- because of the Honor and Glory that was bestowed on our omnipotent God through His Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior!  God is always steadfast, sure, and true!  He will give you back what the locusts have taken (Joel 2:25) <<<See toward the end of this posting, the portion from Joel in the Scripture and link to my friend who says this verse, which is greatly encouraging to us.  

       We have gone through a long time of many hurts and deep wounds to our congregation and families.  It seems as though each way we turn, we are pressed at every side and corner.  Perhaps especially in the last few years (even prior, I will explain shortly), each and every person I am aware has extreme difficulties of life pressing in.  It is almost incomprehensible, except that we know humankind has struggled and suffered since we left the Garden of Eden.  
However, God finds the Way for us!  Through Jesus, the Only One Who was and is able to redeem you and me!  He also provides His Help each day, for His mercies are new each day!  
Sometimes we are in a valley for what seems a long, long time, but there are sprigs of beauty, as in a bouquet, along the way.  Then, keeping our eyes fully on the Lord, we come to a parting in the valley, and we begin to soar higher and higher, closer to the mountaintop!  
Have you also had those times where you feel that you are on a roller coaster?  Up one minute or day, then down again.  I strongly encourage you to read, Oswald's Chambers' My Utmost for His Highest (see right here just below), one of the very, very best daily, Christian devotionals you will ever find.  It is deep in meaning, accurate in the Truth of the Bible, and you will be challenged.

Have the Utter Joy and Life of a Relationship with the Son of God, Jesus Christ!

Having a personal relationship with God in Jesus Christ is the one and only answer that will help you through Life on Earth and then get you to the right place, Heaven, where you continue to be and live gloriously in God's Holy Kingdom.  The opposite of accepting Christ Jesus is a path to nowhere.  You will go to the complete opposite of Heaven, which is Hell.  Works on Earth cannot get you in to Heaven; leading a "good life" does not enable you to live with the LORD in bliss and beauty forever and ever.  Please, Friends, do NOT believe the lies of Satan and his demons, nor the lies of popular belief that abound around us and inundate us every day in this fallen world.

In our daily lives as well as what we see evidenced throughout our nation and the entire world, we see strife and disaster at every corner.
Be prepared and do not take your afterlife for granted: that you will just slip away quietly into nothingness or any such nonsense.  There will be many who wish desperately that they had taken what they heard and saw about Jesus Christ to heart, immediately! and accepted His loving grace and mercy, to be in fellowship with God, always and forever.
I am more grateful of my Salvation than any other thing or person.  I love my husband and children with every fiber of my being, but I have nothing if I do not have God, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.  I have such blessed assurance that He is mine for eternity.  I am safe and will be at my true Home one day when He says it is time.
Then, having great trust and faith in the Only One Who possesses the ability to give Salvation to our children and ourselves, each one of us, one at a time telling the LORD, "Yes, Jesus, I believe that You are the Son of God, the Messiah, and You died on the cross for me- were resurrected, and now live at the right hand of the Father.  Your Holy Spirit now lives within me!"

God's Help and Love are Real, Palpable

       I think there is no deeper wound than the physical loss of a loved one.  Yes, divorce and other "leavings" in our lives cut deeper than we can express.  But the Lord God Almighty has His way and ways of softening the hurts and loss.  He can give us that peace that passes understanding.  Here is a short explanation of this Truth of the Lord happening in my husband's and my life together in a very personal, magnificent manner.

       Royce and I experienced the Lord's amazing, miraculous and completely real Peace in a very real, even palpable way to us fourteen years ago. Two times from a single auto accident, the orthopedic surgeon told me that I might lose my leg with the broken tibia and fibula.  I had another great doctor for the broken neck I sustained.  Some of the hurts involved a broken tail bone, retrograde amnesia, etc. 

       As I was going into the operating room that particular day, "You might lose your leg if this procedure does not work- not today, though."  When I was recuperating at the hospital, Royce took me home early because he said, "We have to get you out of this place!"  Royce immediately checked me out...my room was in the basement, and there was such a feeling of oppression.  The staff at this hospital treated me exceedingly well where I spent the first month after the crash and then at various times for therapies and surgeries for the next two years- rehabilitation went on longer.  Believe me, growing closer to Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior, was exponential during this time and since- actually, just prior to the accident, also.  I have many true stories of God's faithfulness and lovingkindness...

       When we returned home, I fell into the worst depression that I have ever experienced.  As Royce was nursing my wound that night, he said, "Donna, you have to help me.  I cannot do this all by myself!"  We continued praying, prayed! and asked for more prayer help from family, friends, and church.  Within the time over the weekend before we went to see the dr. again, I woke up that Monday and truly felt in the most powerful way that I ever had before in life- &&&That Peace that Passes Understanding. Philippians 4:7 (whole chapter given) (You can see below +++the link that takes you to the posting that has more about what happened next when God did the impossible but exactly what He promises in that peace that passes understanding!)

If you need to accept Christ's Salvation, please take the most important moment of your Life here and later, to take Jesus' Salvation. God chose to give us free will- He will not overstep your choice, even if that is to reject His Son, Jesus, the Lamb of God, the Only Holy One Who could save us, that is, each individual who has ever lived, lives, or will live.  God is merciful, loving, and just.  He is the great Judge Who judges each human being perfectly.  Do NOT gamble with Life.  If you are sincere and want Jesus as your personal Savior, please read this prayer and tell God- or you can tell Him in your very own words.  The LORD sees our thoughts in detail- every whisper, every cry, every laugh, every newborn baby's birth, each suffering and every smile and Joy!

A Prayer of Salvation

Oh, Heavenly Father!  I want You in my Life!  Please forgive me of my wrongdoings to others and myself, and to You, Father.  I want a new and better time now and for all of my days, even into eternity with You!  Challenges here will pale to being with You in Joy, plus You will help me each day.  I believe that Your Son, Jesus Christ of Nazareth, died on the cross for my sins, and He completely took them away from me and even You remember them no more.  He was resurrected and now intercedes for me in prayer in Heaven.  Jesus Christ is with me daily; Your Holy Spirit lives within me and helps me now in all ways. Thank You.  I want to abide with You and learn more about You in the Word, the Bible.  Please help me.  In Jesus' Name, Amen.

       I applaud your courage and bravery to step over that line of faith!  Do you or I know everything there is about God?  Of course not!!  But, we will learn and try each day, pray, find a great Bible-believing and Christ-believing warm fellowship of other Believers to enjoy Life together.  That is my hope.  Our Promise is in Christ Jesus :) 

<<<These verses are very important, so harken and lend your ear!

Joel 2:25-32 New King James Version (NKJV)

²⁵ “So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten,
The crawling locust,
The consuming locust,
And the chewing locust,^[a]
My great army which I sent among you.
²⁶ You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied,
And praise the name of the Lord your God,
Who has dealt wondrously with you;
And My people shall never be put to shame.
²⁷ Then you shall know that I am in the midst of Israel:
I am the Lord your God
And there is no other.
My people shall never be put to shame.

God’s Spirit Poured Out

²⁸ “And it shall come to pass afterward
That I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh;
Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
Your old men shall dream dreams,
Your young men shall see visions.
²⁹ And also on My menservants and on My maidservants
I will pour out My Spirit in those days.

³⁰ “And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth:
Blood and fire and pillars of smoke.
³¹ The sun shall be turned into darkness,
And the moon into blood,
Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord.
³² And it shall come to pass
That whoever calls on the name of the Lord
Shall be saved.
For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there shall be deliverance,
As the Lord has said,
Among the remnant whom the Lord calls.

>>>With thanks to Joni Ames, my dear, Christian friend whom I have heard say or write many times the Scripture of: Joel 2:25.  God bless you always; I know you may or may not be suffering right now, so remember what the Lord tells you in His Word, from the Holy Spirit, the fellowship- all of God's Ways!  As true believers in the LORD and Savior, we possess the mind of Christ!  
1 Corinthians 2  We love you, Joni!  Your gift of the Spirit in teaching and the prophetic have helped and grown many people of the faith, in Christ alone, closer to Him!  
WHAT I WOULD SAY TO MY BELOVED FAMILY Whose Salvation is Unsure: Have You Committed Your Life to Christ Jesus? PART ONE
May the Love of Our LORD Jesus infuse you with His grace and goodness.  
His mercies endure forever!
