In the beginning was the Word
the word was with God
the Word was God.
Study to show yourselves approved by God.
A workman is not ashamed
rightly dividing the word of truth.
Jesus said: The reason I was born
and came into the world
is to testify to the truth.
Everyone on the side of truth listens to me.
For the word of God is living
and active
and sharper than any two-edged sword
piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit
of both joints and morrow
and is able to discern
the thoughts and intentions
of the heart.
For He is our peace
He who has made Jews and Gentiles one
and in His own human nature
has broken down the hostile dividing wall.
The person who continues to study
God’s perfect teachings
that make people free
and who remains committed to them
will be blessed.
I will study your commandments
and reflect your ways
I want to reflect on your guiding principles
and study your ways.
Jesus bless us today-allow us to know you: The Word. To study all about You so we won’t be ashamed. Help us as we rightly divide your Word which is truth, breaking down the hostile dividing wall- Pierce and divide the thoughts and intentions of our heart, Lord.
Help us to discern and study your commandments, as we reflect & study your ways.
Thank you for making us free. Help us as we purposely remain committed to you.
You promise us blessings. Thank You, In Jesus name, Amen!

************************************************************************************************************
This is one of my last letters of 2014.
I just noticed my calendar as I was typing, it is now 2015- January first, as a matter of fact!
I can not believe this.
Father God has given me lots of love letters and information via way of the Holy Spirit.
I have typed many a hour, cried many a tear, and have been very surprised at what has come out of me, because of Jesus.
I have said many times: JESUS IS LORD, and I truly mean it!
Not only do I “mean” it, I “live it” too!
I honor my Father in the way I live. It is all I have to offer as “reasonable service” ((Romans 12:1-2 says:
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. KJV))
Living a life: HOLY & ACCEPTABLE UNTO GOD. Presenting myself to God a living sacrifice, not conformed and living a life of and in this world, but the reality of God’s presence, as if God is with me- watching all I do, IN all I do and say, approving all I am IN HIM. I need to transform myself! Starting with my mind- starting with God’s Word, beginning with God- staying in His will, keeping Him first…THIS is my reasonable service.
With me having a holy fear of of not wanting God’s disapproval of any of my actions. I choose to be holy as HE is holy. I choose to be honorable in the sight of my Abba.
My reality is not of this world! But of my Heavenly Father, in whom Jesus introduced us to. My belief in Him astounds me as I grow in Him daily. He opens Himself up to me day by day as I pray revelation, wisdom, knowledge, understanding. Growing in Him, abounding in Him as He enables me IN HIM— Hallelujah, God is so good!
I grew in 2014, and 2015 will be even better! Let me rephrase this: We grew in 2014, & will continue to grow by the grace of God in 2015!
As God fills up the chest- the treasure chest, it will be emptied.
Freely, Freely you have received…. Freely, freely give…. This scripture is our mission! A goal!
Our reasonable service, maybe? hmm, good point!
And as God's word is fed through my fingertips, it will get sent out and bless someone- for God’s Word will not return to Him void, as well as this child will be diligent, obedient, giving as God is giving to me.
His treasure chest full of nuggets of Him, rubies, diamonds, tried gold and silver
nuggets of wisdom, wonderful wisdom from the heartbeat of our Abba.
No wonder I cry- He is so sweet, so gentle, so…God!
So in this New Year, Do yourself a favor. Present yourself to God.
Can you do this?
Jesus gave Himself to us- learn about Him!
Can you do this?
Walk by FAITH not by sight!
and with God’s help, we can walk in Victory shouting in triumph: Yes, I CAN DO THIS!
With God before me- who, who??? can be against me??? I can do all things through Christ Jesus who is my strength!
So friends, have a Happy NEW Year- growing in your God- ALMIGHTY GOD that is!
Jesus Christ is Lord…tell someone, as you Present yourselves unto God- acceptable- holy and a living sacrifice, which is our reasonable service; which means: this is something we CAN do!
God bless you!
Sincerely,
Lorraine
