Psalms 22


2. My God, my God, why have You forsaken me? [You are] far from my salvation [and] from the words of my moaning. ב. אֵלִי אֵלִי לָמָה עֲזַבְתָּנִי רָחוֹק מִישׁוּעָתִי דִּבְרֵי שַׁאֲגָתִי:
3. My God, I call out by day and You do not reply, and at night I do not keep silent. ג. אֱלֹהַי אֶקְרָא יוֹמָם וְלֹא תַעֲנֶה וְלַיְלָה וְלֹא דוּמִיָּה לִי:

7. But I am a worm and not a man; a reproach of man, despised by peoples. ז. וְאָנֹכִי תוֹלַעַת וְלֹא אִישׁ חֶרְפַּת אָדָם וּבְזוּי עָם:
8. All who see me will mock me; they will open their lips, they will shake their head. ח. כָּל רֹאַי יַלְעִגוּ לִי יַפְטִירוּ בְשָׂפָה יָנִיעוּ רֹאשׁ:
9. One should cast his trust upon the Lord, and He will rescue him; He will save him because He delights in him. ט. גֹּל אֶל יְהֹוָה יְפַלְּטֵהוּ יַצִּילֵהוּ כִּי חָפֵץ בּוֹ:
10. For You drew me from the womb; You made me secure on my mother's breasts. י. כִּי אַתָּה גֹחִי מִבָּטֶן מַבְטִיחִי עַל שְׁדֵי אִמִּי:
11. Upon You, I was cast from birth; from my mother's womb You are my God. יא. עָלֶיךָ הָשְׁלַכְתִּי מֵרָחֶם מִבֶּטֶן אִמִּי אֵלִי אָתָּה:
12. Do not distance Yourself from me, for distress is near; for there is none to help. יב. אַל תִּרְחַק מִמֶּנִּי כִּי צָרָה קְרוֹבָה כִּי אֵין עוֹזֵר:
13. Great bulls have surrounded me; the mighty ones of Bashan encompassed me. יג. סְבָבוּנִי פָּרִים רַבִּים אַבִּירֵי בָשָׁן כִּתְּרוּנִי:
14. They opened their mouth against me [like] a tearing, roaring lion. יד. פָּצוּ עָלַי פִּיהֶם אַרְיֵה טֹרֵף וְשֹׁאֵג:
15. I was spilled like water, and all my bones were separated; my heart was like wax, melting within my innards. טו. כַּמַּיִם נִשְׁפַּכְתִּי וְהִתְפָּרְדוּ כָּל עַצְמוֹתָי הָיָה לִבִּי כַּדּוֹנָג נָמֵס בְּתוֹךְ מֵעָי:
16. My strength became dried out like a potsherd, and my tongue cleaves to my palate; and You set me down in the dust of death. טז. יָבֵשׁ כַּחֶרֶשׂ | כֹּחִי וּלְשׁוֹנִי מֻדְבָּק מַלְקוֹחָי וְלַעֲפַר מָוֶת תִּשְׁפְּתֵנִי:
17. For dogs have surrounded me; a band of evildoers has encompassed me, like a lion, my hands and feet. יז. כִּי סְבָבוּנִי כְּלָבִים עֲדַת מְרֵעִים הִקִּיפוּנִי כָּאֲרִי יָדַי וְרַגְלָי:
18. I tell about all my bones. They look and gloat over me. יח. אֲסַפֵּר כָּל עַצְמוֹתָי הֵמָּה יַבִּיטוּ יִרְאוּ בִי:
19. They share my garments among themselves and cast lots for my raiment. יט. יְחַלְּקוּ בְגָדַי לָהֶם וְעַל לְבוּשִׁי יַפִּילוּ גוֹרָל:
20. But You, O Lord, do not distance Yourself; my strength, hasten to my assistance. כ. וְאַתָּה יְהֹוָה אַל תִּרְחָק אֱיָלוּתִי לְעֶזְרָתִי חוּשָׁה:
23. I will tell Your name to my brothers; in the midst of the congregation I will praise You. כג. אֲסַפְּרָה שִׁמְךָ לְאֶחָי בְּתוֹךְ קָהָל אֲהַלְלֶךָּ:
24. You who fear the Lord, praise Him; all the seed of Jacob, honor Him, and fear Him, all the seed of Israel. כד. יִרְאֵי יְהֹוָה | הַלְלוּהוּ כָּל זֶרַע יַעֲקֹב כַּבְּדוּהוּ וְגוּרוּ מִמֶּנוּ כָּל זֶרַע יִשְׂרָאֵל:

ARE YOU ON A LAY-AWAY PLAN?

*Translate into your own language by clicking the icon to the right of the screen.*

Take a Look at someone today and see her as God sees her.  See all that has made her who she is, and then look even deeper to see all that God has created her to be.  -T.D. Jakes-

Do you look at people through the eyes of the blood of Yeshua?
Do you see others through the heart Vision of what Yeshua sees when He looks at ALL people?
Do we see what He has Created and formed us and others to BE or do we only see the faults and things we do not like, or the irritations that arise?

Yeshua says their is NO CONDEMNATION to those who walk with Him.  I know that you today are walking with Yeshua; so, do not condemn yourself or others.  See yourself and others the way that the Father sees you.  Jude says that Yeshua PRESENTS you Faultless before the Throne of God.  In Yeshua you are faultless!  Did you know that?  You are presented to the Father(the Judge), free.  You have been Redeemed!  That means the debt that you owed(sin) was paid in full!  
Do you think of yourself on Lay-Away till Yeshua comes again?
When you go to the store and put an item on a Lay-Away plan, you go and pay a little each month till it becomes your own, Right?  Many believers today are on a Lay-Away plan.  Many believe that they have to Do this and that to make themselves exceptable to the Lord and then when He comes back they will have proved to Him that they are OK to receive eternal life.   If you believe this, I am telling you today that there is NO Lay-Away plan, your debt has been paid in full by the unseen Yeshua.  You only have to Believe it!  He took the debt upon Himself in Full.  Yeshua CHOSE, be obedient to the Father, to take our sin upon Himself.  In return, He has imputed His righteousness back upon us.  It is about the Father`s  great love for ALL mankind-to send His Son to die for us.  The gift of Salvation is free, Freedom!  
Stop trying to measure up, you never will on your our strength.  Yeshua`s strength is made perfect in your weakness.  Yeshua`s Perfect Faultlessness IS upon you today.  May this BE the reality that you WALK in today!

RECALLED OR CALLED?

*Translate into your own language by clicking the icon to the right of the screen.*

I was reading this wonderful passage again and am reminded that Adonai has promised there WILL be survivors.  They WILL be those whom He has called. 
Joel 3
 “After this, I will pour out
my Spirit on all humanity.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions;
2 and also on male and female slaves
in those days I will pour out my Spirit.
3 I will show wonders in the sky and on earth —
blood, fire and columns of smoke.
The sun will be turned into darkness
and the moon into blood
before the coming of the great
and terrible Day of Adonai.”
5 At that time, whoever calls
on the name of Adonai will be saved.
For in Mount Tziyon and Yerushalayim
there will be those who escape,
as Adonai has promised;
among the survivors will be those
whom Adonai has called.

Do you doubt whether God has called you?  It is something we all will question from time to time.  God says that the gifts and callings He has placed within us are NOT and WILL NEVER be recalled.  
Do you know what happens when an item like a toy or a car is recalled?  You take it back to the manufacturer or maker and the Maker fixes it or replaces it.  The Word says that is not so with spiritual gifts. 
When God decided to send your spirit to this earth, He had a specific plan.  Do you know His plan?  Do you know what He has gifted and talented you to do?  His PLAN and CALLING on your life Will Never Be recalled by Him. You can tell Him you do not want to do the thing He has called you to do, but that thing will never go away.  It will always be there and you will be reminded of it from time to time.  
So today I ask you, what is your purpose in this life, on this earth?  Is your purpose presently focused on you or on others?  Is is about the Kingdom of Heaven?  Remember, this earth is not our home, we are just passing through.  Live this day as though it is on purpose.  You can start today.  Your life is VERY significant to God!
