The Mighty One, God, the Lord, has spoken, And summoned the earth from the rising of the sun to its setting. Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God has shone forth.
Psalms 50:1-2 NASB
GOD. THE Supreme Being. Eternal. Superior. Creator and Ruler of all. Infinite in all attributes. Worthy of my worship!
THE MIGHTY ONE. Superior Strength. I will seek His face and strength.
THE LORD. Has authority, control, power over all. I surrender to my Lord as my Master, my Chief, my Ruler.
I could stop right here as this says so much, leaving my jaw dropped to the ground in awe. No one can compare to Almighty Lord God. But then God spoke. . .
Creator. Summoned the earth by His authority placing it right where He planted it. Complete control is His from the rising of the sun to its setting. Should we not praise the name of the Lord from the rising of the sun to its setting?
Psalms 113:3 NASB
And!!! Through Christ, the perfection of beauty is shown through His death and resurrection awaiting we who know the Mighty One, God, the Lord.
🌹The Lord reigns, let the peoples tremble; He is enthroned above the cherubim, let the earth shake!
Psalms 99:1 NASB

Work of Your Hands
For You, O Lord, have made me glad by what You have done, I will sing for joy at the works of Your hands.
Psalms 92:4 NASB
🌹O Lord my God, You have made me glad by what You have done. Many, are the wonders which You have done, and Your thoughts toward me; there is none to compare with You. If I would declare and speak of them, they would be too numerous to count. Only through You Jesus can I be saved. I give thanks to Your holy name and glory in Your praise. The works of Your hands are truth and justice; Your commandments are sure. I will sing for joy at the works of Your hands. Work in me Lord God. Transform me for Your glory. In Jesus name I pray, amen.

Good and Blessed
He who gives attention to the word will find good, And blessed is he who trusts in the Lord.
Proverbs 16:20 NASB
One thing I ask of the Lord before opening His word, the sword of the Spirit, is for wisdom and understanding. I do this so, as I feast on God’s Word, I am able to taste and see that the Lord is good, attaining wisdom for the love of my soul and that through understanding I can do good. The Word is for life. Food, guidance, peace, contentment, understanding of the ways of life. Let me encourage you to be in the Word of God daily. For your good and God’s glory.
Ephesians 6:17b/Jeremiah 17:7/Psalms 34:8/Proverbs 19:8 NASB
🌹How sweet are Your words to my taste! Yes, sweeter than honey to my mouth!

Continuous Prayer
pray without ceasing;
1 Thessalonians 5:17 NASB
Jesus spoke about prayer, modeled prayer, and is the recipient of our prayers along with the Father and the Holy Spirit. We are to pray at all times and not lose heart because God will bring about justice for His elect who cry to Him day and night. God will bring about justice quickly for us – the faithful in prayer. Faithfulness in prayer increases faith.
Prayer unifies the body of Christ. Praying for one another, with one another in one mind continually devoting ourselves to prayer. And we each have the gift of the Holy Spirit who helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words; and He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.
Luke 18:1/Luke 18:7-8/Acts 1:14/Romans 8:26-27 NASB
🌹Let us give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, and pray always for one another.
Colossians 1:3 NASB

3 John 13-15
I had many things to write to you, but I am not willing to write them to you with pen and ink; but I hope to see you shortly, and we will speak face to face. Peace be to you. The friends greet you. Greet the friends by name.
3 John 13-15 NASB
God bless you for taking this journey through 1, 2 and 3rd John with me. I have learned a lot; been challenged in loving others as God loves; being made aware of those who falsely walk the Christian walk seeking to deceive; and knowing that my God abides in me leading and guiding my Christian walk. I am so thankful for the Word of God that leads me and guides me on the straight and narrow with the Holy Spirit residing in me the whole way in truth for life eternal. To God be the glory for the things He has done in me through this journey. I hope and pray you have been challenged and grown too during this journey.
🌹Peace and faith with love to the family of faith from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Grace be with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ with incorruptible love. Peace be to you all who are in Christ.

3 John 12
Demetrius has received a good testimony from everyone, and from the truth itself; and we add our testimony, and you know that our testimony is true.
3 John 12 NASB
Are you ever concerned with what people say about you or see in you? Should you be?
Father God, You sent Your Son to pay the price for my sin and to give me life. This life that I now live is not mine. Christ lives in me by the Holy Spirit who resides in me. You have instructed me, in Your Word, to let my light shine before others in such a way that they may see my good works, and glorify You Father. Lord, I pray that I will walk in such a way that I would have a good reputation among those in the church and outside the church, so that I will not fall into reproach and the snare of the devil, bringing dishonor to Your name. I also ask that I walk in such a manner that when I share the gospel the one I share with will know that my testimony is true, so that they also may believe. I pray my walk in You gives me a reputation that gives You honor, glory and praise and is a testimony of Your truth in me. This I pray in Jesus name, amen.
Galatians 2:20/Matthew 5:16/1 Timothy 3:7/John 19:35 NASB
Testimony: my husband had a co-worker who approached him one day and asked, “What is different about you?”. He told him that Jesus lived in him. This began a relationship that eventually opened the opportunity for my husband to lead this man to the Lord.
🌹Does it matter what others see in you?

3 John 11
Beloved, do not imitate what is evil, but what is good. The one who does good is of God; the one who does evil has not seen God.
3 John 11 NASB
God, it is sometimes so hard to live a godly life when all around me evil resides. I see it, hear it, and sometimes I am the receiver of it. I pray Lord God to be strengthened by the power of the blood to depart from evil and do good; to seek peace and pursue it so I will abide forever in Your righteousness. Help me Jesus to imitate good and practice righteousness as You have demonstrated. I want to be known as Your child by walking in Your righteousness Jesus practicing until I see You in all Your glory. Amen.

3 John 9-10
I wrote something to the church; but Diotrephes, who loves to be first among them, does not accept what we say (us). For this reason, if I come, I will call attention to his deeds which he does, unjustly accusing us with wicked words; and not satisfied with this, he himself does not receive the brethren, either, and he forbids those who desire to do so and puts them out of the church.
3 John 9-10 NASB
Holy God, I pray for the one who walks contrary to Your Word in self righteousness, forgetting that You and only You are Sovereign leader of the church. Under Your sovereign power, Lord, guide me by Your word to stand for Your perfect truth against those who abuse it to their demise. May the body, Your church, prayerfully confront boldly anyone who goes too far and does not abide in the teaching of Christ. These we know do not have God; the one who abides in the teaching, he has both the Father and the Son. I pray Lord God for discernment and boldness to speak truth that You may be glorified in Your church. In Jesus name I pray, amen.

3 John 7-8
For they went out for the sake of the Name, accepting nothing from the Gentiles. Therefore we ought to support (receive such men as guests) such men, so that we may be (prove ourselves to be) fellow workers with (for) the truth.
3 John 7-8 NASB
“They went out for the sake of the Name “. Glory to the name that is highly exalted and bestowed on Him by You, God; the name which is above every name, to whom every knee will bow. Bow at the name of Jesus, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. I ask for my heart’s desire to be, to live each day for the sake of the Name and to support all fellow workers of the faith spreading the truth of Jesus alongside them and/or financially. I ask, praying in the Name of Jesus, amen.
Philippians 2:9-11/ NASB
“We ought to support.”
🌹I have coveted no one’s silver or gold or clothes. In everything I showed you that by working hard in this manner you must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ ”

3 John 5-6
Beloved, you are acting faithfully in whatever you accomplish for the brethren, and especially when they are strangers; and they have testified to your love before the church. You will do well to send them on their way in a manner worthy of God.
3 John 5-6 NASB
🌹Faithful God who has called me into Your own kingdom and glory, glory to Your name and to Your kingdom. Help me to walk in a manner worthy of You, my God, who has called me. To please You in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of You, God. To be faithful to the brethern; especially those who are strangers and to do good to all people as I have opportunity in the support of the spread of Your gospel. I pray I will be faithful in my walk as I follow in the footsteps of my Lord Jesus Christ in whose name I pray, amen.
