MESSAGE
How many of you are real good at remembering people's names? I am really bad about this and it has caused me great embarrassment over the years. My Linda has bailed me out so many times. When we gather among a lot of people, and someone I can't remember who they are, Linda will jump right in saying HI I'M LINDA, YOU ARE? Suddenly I have a GET Out of JAIL Card. Bless you my bride!
In times past, the size of families were, by necessity, quite large. Farmers, ranchers, and all manner of people who had a close relationship with the soil. One family I knew in my youth had 15 kids. All of them were still living at home at the time. It was a zoo! Nine or Ten kids were probably about the STANDARD size of family that I was familiar with while growing up. My parents were the exception in that my sister and I were the only kids born, but between she and I, we generated at least nine-kids worth of issues for mom and dad to contend with!
A joy that I never tire of is listening to folks of our seasoning attempt to recall from memory the names of their WHOLE TEAM. Most do very well with the kids, struggle a bit with naming the grand kids, and rarely can they round out the list recalling all of the GRAND or GREAT GRAND FLOCK. One thing has not changed much, folks are still cranking out loads of kids.
I personally know of someone who knows, by memory, the names of millions of HIS children. He never forgets a single one! "To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out." (Joh 10:3 NAS95) This man is our Lord and Savior, JESUS.
Join me now and let's allow the little kid in you and I to come out for a while. Doing this helps greatly in improving your understanding of Holy Scripture! It really does! Believing as a child opens your mind and soul to that which most adults have long put away. That is a shame.
Lets imagine for a moment that we are present at the crucifixion of Jesus up on Golgotha. We are close enough to see clearly Jesus suffering on the cross. We witness Him hanging in agony, His hands, PALMS OUT, nailed to the wood. Suddenly our breath is taken away as we see OUR OWN NAME WRITTEN ON THE PALMS OF JESUS HANDS! How can this be? "Behold, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands; Your walls [of God's Protection] are continually before Me. (Isa 49:16 NAS95) If you believe as a child, and you have given yourself to the Lord, you will have no problem seeing Your name engraved on his palms.
The only ones who are equipped to see their name on His palms are those who have said YES to His call. Who have received Him into your body and soul. You bear on your head His SEAL, the SEAL confirming that You are His! ...the firm foundation of God stands, having this seal, "The Lord knows those who are His," and, "Everyone who names the name of the Lord is to abstain from wickedness." (2Ti 2:19 NAS95)
[JESUS SAYS]; "Many will say to Me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?' "And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; DEPART FROM ME, YOU WHO PRACTICE LAWLESSNESS.' (Mat 7:22-23 NAS95) ==> For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the wicked will perish. (Psa 1:6 NAS95)
SUMMARY
"Put me like a seal over your heart, Like a seal on your arm. For love is as strong as death, Jealousy is as severe as [HELL];===> Its flashes are flashes of fire, The very flame of the LORD. "Many waters cannot quench love, Nor will rivers overflow it; If a man were to give all the riches of his house for love, It would be utterly despised." (Son 8:6-7 NAS95)
The LORD is good, A stronghold in the day of trouble, And He knows those who take refuge in Him. (Nah 1:7 NAS95)
"In My Father's house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. "If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also. "And you know the way where I am going." Thomas *said to Him, "Lord, we do not know where You are going, how do we know the way?" Jesus *said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me. (Joh 14:2-6 NAS95)
"To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out." (Joh 10:3 NAS95) The LORD NEVER FORGETS!
CLOSING PRAYER
O' Mighty Lord of Creation, what a blessing it is for us to gather in fellowship here on this Holy Day to learn, and to grow and to bask in the light of Your life-giving and ever sustaining Grace and Mercy. Your Word penetrates to the very marrow of our bones, while filling our spirits with Your Holy breath. We exist only by Your loving and tender will. Our hearts are filled with thanksgiving, Lord Jesus, AMEN.
DOXOLOGY
Praise God, from Whom all blessings flow;
Praise Him, all creatures here below;

Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
Amen
THE CALL
If you have never invited Jesus to be your Lord and savior, or, if you have in the past yet remain unsure of salvation and forgiveness of sin, Please pray with me now: Lord Jesus I need to fill a hole in my life that follows me where ever I go. I am a long-time Sinner and I CONFESS and REPENT of all my sins. I believe that You JESUS are the Lord, that you were hung on a cross and died. I believe that you were raised back to life by God, Your Father, ascended into heaven and presently sit at the right hand of The Almighty. Please come into me, clean me, take me and make me Yours and let me serve from this day forward and forever, Thank-You Jesus, AMEN
If you sincerely prayed with me, your salvation has been assured. {Rom 10:9 KJV} -That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Waste no time in finding like minded folks, to fellowship with, who also know the lord Jesus. Be introduced to a church that preaches the BIBLE. Email me. Begin the journey that you will never tire of; the discovery of the Majesty, Beauty and loving Power of Jesus the Christ. Welcome to the family!
