Mother weeps but can change nothing.
In Jesus arms they weep together.

HE WILL MAKE PROVISION
The peace of our joining together of love between us and our God is something we can do and share every moment of every day.
Who is it that says it ever has to end. Why do we feel that we can not pray continually. Are we afraid that something would happen while we were praying?
Would we wreck that car or stop our work or neglect our children?
Does God not give us the ability to pray as we walk in our path?
Have you ever been faced with the urge to pray yet did not because of some pressing business or that phone call coming?
I have learned in my usual slow witted way that Jesus makes time for prayer.
I feel the need, his call on my soul and spirit to pray and I force my flesh aside to answer the call. I have learned that God freezes time around your prayer call. He sets aside time to answer his call for praise, ministry, and worship. Deep in your heart you know your masters voice, the voice of your shepherd. Heed his call brother and sisters for there is time sufficient for answer to his call for you to pray. Set aside for a worship call on his will. He will provide time for his call. Just as he provisions all things in your life when you are in his will he will provision time for your answer to his call for prayer.
I have myself been working on a aircraft computer that normally would be a time consuming complex repair (they do not come to us in good working order as it is my job to fix them) and had Jesus call me to prayer and his hand has moved on the surface of that computer and they complete the test run with no failures and thus not requiring my attention at all. The time for a complete test run unattended is 3 hours. All time that now because of his intervention and provision, I have to give him for prayer. He will do that to two units one after the other and that gives me six hours for him. He will provide that provision. Answer his call to prayer and he will honor the obedience and submission to his will in covenant with him. He is not playing Church or God He requires your worship and when he calls answer in faith. He will provide.
Hear him calling?
Feel him moving?
want some Joy?
Need a faith boost?
Step out of your box and answer his call.
Now is the time no excuse move to his song and he will place Joy in your heart no way out just pure love.
Happiness in his worship is where you are do not hesitate and miss the great grace that he will provide you now is the time to act go for it.
HE WILL MAKE PROVISION.

Uncertain Fire
When does it become certain that you are what you have chosen to be ?
Romans 10
When does it become unquestioned that you are who he has declared you to be ?
Romans 10
When will we grow past trying and effort to be what we are by his grace?
Ephesians 2:8-10
When will we become what we are - Sons and daughters - ambassadors of the Living King, representatives of the light up on a hill , messengers. . .
Overcoming not by your efforts to be something you can not be on your own, but rather learning to truly surrender by submitting to him and RESTING.
Matthew, Revelation
our call as the burdened is to decide, Stand, Rest.
Ephesians
It wasn't a request of your King it was a command. You do not have the ability in and of yourself to do anything more to be more accepted by your God, with one exception. Decide he is your Lord and King and be what you are by his grace, a Christian. You are never holier than the day you chose to believe because like a child you came to him and you gave yourself to him and didn't attempt to take anything back from him and was what you had become a Christian. Leave with him what is his alone - You.
Galatians 2:20
You will find as you focus and give glory less to your inability to be holy, continually looking at yourself worshiping yourself in a mirror forgetting him continually striving on your own and learn to look to him in your imperfection. Keeping him firmly in focus not swaying to the left or right as a reed looking at your failings and struggles but rather as you focus on him you will be in fact giving him what he deserves your adoration, not an empty love full of self achievement but rather a freedom of knowing he is able to perfect you in season renewing as you stand with him and let his love flow over you. You are not your own, you are not your God. Rest in him he is able and that act of rest is a demonstration of the faith you eagerly seek everyday as you complicate your Gospel rather than simply sitting under your Kings wings. Safe. Free. Forever Changed. Holy. Blessed. Altogether HIS.
The Holy Spirit convicts, you examine, you repent and believe the Gospel. in that agreement your God moves. You have enough to do. Focus on what he would have you do while he shows you what needs to be changed in his time not yours. You will find if you do what he asks for you to do, you will be too busy to stand in front of a mirror primping and stroking your self image of Christianity and that is freedom .
Amen

Insufficient
Peace
The Love of Jesus be with you ~
Is it or does the world pull you too and fro?
Where does your efforts of peace end and Jesus begin~
When does someone's interference end the peace Jesus has given you ~
When will it stop?
~ When you stop trying to be your God ~
He is enough ~ you are insufficient ~ reconcile yourself to that and be free ~

Jesus said "Forbid him not . . . "
Forbid him not. . .Mark 9:39 But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me.
Do we forbid them if they are Lutheran, Catholic, Baptist, Pentecostal, Assembly of God, Church of God, Charismatic, Nondenominational where do you draw the line of forbidding them ? What is the key of unity among the philosophies of man? Is it denomination's or is Jesus coming for all the nondenominationals alone?

Who is God's heart for ?
1 Timothy 4:10 For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.
It is his will for ALL men to come to the knowledge of the truth repent and make him Lord.
2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
If this is true then only people who reject his promise condemn themselves because his gift is intended for all mankind.
John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
So if a person declares Jesus his Lord in prayer or in any other fashion from his heart what shall we do if we disagree with his tradition if it does not deny Christ ?
Do we sit in judgment, like Jesus disciples and Forbid the man (woman) from doing God's work because of our denominational bias?
OR
Do we Forbid him not ?
Mark 9:39 But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me.
Do we condemn them because they do not share our traditions?
John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
Do we judge and make ourselves holy by another's faults as we perceive them?
John 5:22 For the Father judged no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:
Do we speak evil of these men who are not part of our denomination?
Titus 3:2 To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, shewing all meekness unto all men.
What Should we do ?
Galatians 6:1 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.
Colossians 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
1 Peter 3:15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
2 Timothy 2:25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;If Jesus; Creator, Son of God, Son of man, Born of Mary, was crucified, rose again, His blood your cleanser of all sin, His Holiness your holiness, His sacrifice made for our sin. Lord God, king of Kings. Personal saviour for all men who accept him in faith as such. If by definition of the Word of God Lord of any man in any denomination ~Forbid him not . . .
Perhaps its time we acted as children of God and embrace our brethren in love not petty vain disputations ~ perhaps we accept Jesus as our common key and open his kingdom to the lost before it is too late for them.
Romans 14:1 Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations.
If there is error in church doctrine among men ~ I admonish you that God the Holy Spirit is able to convict and correct mankind if we speak truth in action and leave the petty vain disputations to those who oppose themselves. No compromise, only Love.To those this offends ~ my reply is Jesus is enough.To those who disagree ~ show me scripturally how men who accept lordship of Jesus as saviour should be forbade and attacked for denominational differences.To those who agree ~ praise Jesus alone. To those who can not find it in their heart to hear the words of life and maintain and continue to forbid. Jesus said ~ Forbid him not. . .
I encourage discourse email me at seeker@godsprovision.org We can sing each other songs of Love in Jesus in truth absolute.
