I've failed to write in my blog.. Recently
It's not a big deal. Its 3:15 in the afternoon and I am having AN AMAZING DAY. This whole day has seriously been all about Jesus and me. I went to church this morning and the holy spirit definitely convicted me.
We went over Genesis 32 where Jacob wresltes with God and God changes his name to Israel. Today's message was about Jesus is the true and better Jacob..
Jacob all his life has been going about life every wrong way possible. He had forgotten how good God is to those who love him, he had forgotten how good God was to his forefathers. God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. (Romans 8:28)
His lesson today for me is that before I can walk obediently to God submitting to his will, I need to DROP each and every thing in my life that I am wrestling with God about.
I need to drop my worries about getting into the college of nursing. I need to seek first the kingdom of God.. for the will of the Lord to become prevalent in my life..
Seriously this Sonday just continues to become better. The presence of God is just so HUGE right now. I am just sitting in my room watching a few youtube videos, studying, listening to some worship music.
Why is it so amazing? It's because the gospel does not get old. I am just reminded that the slaughter of the son of God the perfect one was crucified so that his righteousness could become mine. That man, that God, that Christ Jesus died and on the third day ascended into right hand of his father. For the first time in history, a man walked up to the doors of heaven and cried out, "Lift up your heads, O you gates; be lifted up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in.
The heavens become utterly shocked in silence and wonder. A brave one shouts out
"Who is this King of glory?" Who dare speaks to these doors. No man has ever came near these doors. "Who is this King of glory?" The ONE who has saved us answers
The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle."Lift up your heads, O you gates; lift them up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in."
Then for the first time his history, these gates finally open up for a man. The man the Christ walks through those doors. The angels prostrate and fall, hail the power of Jesus' name. They crown him Lord of all with many crowns. The Lamb finally returns to the throne. Walking up to his father BOLD with his rights, climbing the steps of his throne that makes Solomon's throne look like paper matte. He sits down without asking for permission. Looks at his Father as an affirmation and tells him Father it is finished. The Father says "Indeed".
Go watch Jesus Died! - Paul Washer.. Anyhoo...
GOD IS GLORIOUS..
This Sonday with Jesus was AMAZING.

The cross is beautiful.. I need to remember that this gospel does not grow old, instead I get more dull.
