I knew I started something when I posted my Walk On Weds. with the letter "B", and stated Basic BELIEFS ... knowing that now I would have to do something for each letter, sequentially ... without posting any blogs in between to keep the order. With the second letter being an "E" and looking ahead at the Entire Word, noting that there are 3E's ... I began brainstorming words that begin with "E" and it was so Easy yet the catch is how do they relate to BELIEVE or which ones do:
...Embrace...Engage...Encourage... Experience...Effect...Express...
Extend...Evolve...Enthrone...
Eagerly Expect
|
the ESSENCE of my BELIEFS are found in
Jesus Christ
What's the connection? or which words that came to me
were connected spiritually?
with
Believe
<>
Since I am putting all the rest of my blog posts on hold
I needed to get serious about this acronym
B
E
L
I
E
V
E
I don't think I want to define
BELIEVE
with the acronym
or the word
EXISTENCE
would do
{empirical evidence}
faith - my faith tells me - God exists and
there is more than enough evidence
<>
I think it's too early in 2018
to know where
God
wants to take me
Exploring this One Word
<>
yet
I know all those Words that came to me
are spiritually in-tune with
BELIEVE
and
they were not just random words
<>
I don't believe that I should be lining up Bible
Verses
for this acronym
{oh, guess I have my "V" word}
so
I'm pretty sure
that after all my procrastination
in choosing or deciding
I ended up with
EAGERLY EXPECT
or
EXPECTATIONS
to be the first
"E"
Since the first word was a noun dealing with what iBelieve, I probably should be looking at nouns that deal with Belief or Believing and "eagerly expecting" for sure belongs with what I Believe and what I hope others come to Believe soon but what is God speaking to me about "believing"? since I believe yet have to admit that at times "unbelief" sneaks in, when I should be believing even stronger such as is the case with Miracles and whether God hears or answers many prayers that seem like I've been praying forever. Part of what I am learning about praying, is that I need to come to the throne of God expecting that I will receive whatever, if it lines up with God's will and word and just as important, that iBelieve and receive what He promises in His Word, not just say that I believe.
I am
EAGERLY EXPECTING
much revelation
in
2018
and
BELIEVE
this is just part of what
God plans to do
with this
Word
and
i
HE is EVERLASTING
He is ETERNAL
He is ENOUGH
(actually He is more than Enough!)
I BELIEVE in GOD
and
I BELIEVE GOD
truly I do
His Word never fails nor has He!
"We Believe"
In this time of desperation When all we know is doubt and fear There is only one foundation We believe, we believe In this broken generation When all is dark, You help us see There is only one salvation We believe, we believe
We believe in God the Father We believe in Jesus Christ We believe in the Holy Spirit And He's given us new life We believe in the crucifixion We believe that He conquered death We believe in the resurrection And He's comin' back again, we believe
So, let our faith be more than anthems Greater than the songs we sing And in our weakness and temptations We believe, we believe!
We believe in God the Father! We believe in Jesus Christ! We believe in the Holy Spirit! And He's given us new life! We believe in the crucifixion! We believe that He conquered death! We believe in the resurrection! And He's comin' back again!
Let the lost be found and the dead be raised! In the here and now, let love invade! Let the church live loud, our God we'll say We believe, we believe! And the gates of hell will not prevail! For the power of God, has torn the veil! Now we know Your love will never fail! We believe, we believe!
We believe in God the Father We believe in Jesus Christ We believe in the Holy Spirit And He's given us new life! We believe in the crucifixion! We believe that He conquered death! We believe in the resurrection! And He's comin' back, He's comin' back again! He's comin' back again! We believe! We believe "

I don't want to debate or defend my BELIEFS on my blog, other than to say that have basically remained the same even though I have changed my choice of religious affiliation 3 times that I view as progression, yet my basic beliefs are fundamental truths found in God's Word and based on God's Word, not any person, other than Jesus Christ Himself. For most of my life, I have not lived up to what I believe, nor have my actions shown or proven to others that I believe what I believe. In fact, I have had to defend my beliefs much of my life because my life did not Exemplify my Christian Beliefs. In 2018, I hope to better show what iBelieve and live a life better in-line with my fundamental beliefs. which I may share here and there, but not to debate them. May my words and actions Exemplify Jesus Christ as I reflect more of His image and teachings. Yes, this is the year to Expect eagerly & Exemplify extraordinarily my Lord and King-Jesus!
