"The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion — to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair."~from ISAIAH 61 Bible verse for this Blog

APOLOGY to READERS who followed a SEARCH to HERE & didn't find it

On July 18, 2017, I drafted almost 3000 blog posts that I had published since 2008 when I began blogging, rather than edit each one. So if you clicked here from somewhere else and ended up with the post unavailable or error, I am sorry but this is why. It'd be too much work for me to go back and fix them. There's an explanation on 7/19/17 as I'm still learning.

WALK ON WEDS. (WOW)

With knowing I am long overdue on an excellent book I need to review 
this upcoming Friday and shortly thereafter
my Online Study will be starting plus 
today is the 1st perfect weather forecast above 32 
after such a long time before another cold blast arrives tonight
{it's not the snow that's bad, it's those freezing cold temps and wind chill}

SO
Image result for winter freeze walk
I have to take a literal outside
Walk On Weds.
because it
may be awhile before
I can again

but before I go
let me share a snippet of my most recent email from

I HEAR HIS WHISPER...
"Speak My promises over your life"
Brian Simmons and TPT team
(just the last two paragraphs but it was all so good)


"... Believe all that I have spoken to you about your family. I will complete the beautiful work I have begun, trust in Me and rest in My promises over you and those you love. Believe all that I have promised you concerning your finances. Am I the God of Abundant Supply? Do I not provide for the birds, for the animals of the field, and for everyone of My sons and daughters? For you are the most valuable and costly part of all My creation. Sacred blood dripped from the Tree to show you My love for you. If I have given the blood of My Son to redeem you, will I not also give you everything you need as you walk with Me?

Speak My promises over your life. Read the Words I have promised you in My Holy Book and make them real by faith. Place your hands upon My Word, for they are tangible, and trust in Me—I will not fail you, for I am your Father and Great Shepherd. Speak My promises over your family and over every need you have this day and you will see the deliverance of your God! Believe when all around you is contrary, for then you will demonstrate the power of faith. I have rewarded everyone who comes to Me in faith. My reward is My promise completed and My presence sealed upon your life. Rise up in a new wind of faith this day and you will not be disappointed. Take the steps that I call you to take, believe as you hold My promises, and the miracles will flow into you. Faith is the victory that you need, My promises are the seeds of that victory. Overcome in faith and you will see with your eyes the Kingdom of Heaven before you."B.Simmons


soaking in this wonderful

Whisper
with so much promise as
iBelieve

and
here's some glimpses as
i
WALK













...30As for God, His way is perfect:
The Lord’s word is flawless;
He shields all who take refuge in Him.
31For who is God besides the Lord?
And who is the Rock except our God?
32It is God who arms me with strength
and keeps my way secure.
33He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; He causes me to stand on the heights. Ps 18


As the deer pants for the water brooks, So my soul pants for You, O God. Ps 42:1

"E"

"E"

"Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen."(Ephesians 3:20-21)

iBELIEVE
that
this verse
serves as the best
ENCOURAGEMENT
I can give to finish this
acronym of
BELIEVE

"One amazing aspect of God exercising His ability on our behalf is the imparting of His power within our lives"according to the power that works in us." This is how the Lord wants to develop godliness in our lives. He Himself desires to work by the power of His grace deep within our hearts."Bob Hoekstra

EVERYTHING

we can ask, think or imagine
according to God's will

God
is able to do far
beyond this

EXCEEDINGLY
encouraging


"For it is good that the heart be established by grace" (Hebrews 13:9).

"...Again, the Christian life is not affected from the outside in, hoping to modify our behavior by external religious pressures. Rather, it involves a true change of character within, affected by God Himself. This is how God is ultimately glorified in the lives of His people: "to Him be glory in the church." He works a genuine transformation of life in and through us. Then, we give Him the glory for His exceedingly abundant ability." B.Hoekstra

this prayer from
Bob Hoekstra also

"Lord God of exceeding abundance, I worship You as the one who is able to do all things well. Forgive me for repeatedly turning to my ability. Lord, as I seek You in Your word, build my faith. Unleash the powerful life of Your Son within my heart, making me what You want me to be through Christ I pray, Amen


Originally, I thought my last "E" word of "BELIEVE" would be some aspect to "ENCOURAGE" us to BELIEVE or encourage others in BELIEVING in our Lord Jesus Christ. However, after decades of praying and trying with loved ones to "... believe in the Lord Jesus Christ ..." without success, I decided I was the worst example of one to encourage you (or myself) in this endeavor then I came upon this gem in "exceedingly" and knew that I needed this and this is probably why BELIEVE is my One Word, so that I might BELIEVE, it never was about me succeeding or failing; but by His Spirit (not my efforts) others will come to BELIEVE as I have been so fortunate to believe, and "... His power that works in me" ... will bring Him all the glory as each one turns their heart toward Jesus Christ! iBelieve




I just need all His Strength daily
to keep on BELIEVING and
know HE is at work
in me and them


EAGERLY EXPECTING
EXCEEDING

ENOUGH

God

"V"


"V"

is for

VERSES

found in the Bible
that not only form what
iBELIEVE
but are
the promises and foundations
that i base what i do 


however
what I thought I would write or share
about here
was going to be the

VERSE
or
the search of
Verses


found at
Bible Gateway
(and others)
that
I'm considering for my
2018
SCRIPTURE
VERSE

...

I'm just not sure
so meanwhile I will just link or list and get back to this 
when
GOD
reveals to me 
MY VERSE

so I'm making this more of a
COLLECTION
of
VERSES
of what I
BELIEVE
which more than likely will not make much sense to you, out of context

  • 2 Timothy 3:15-17; 1 Thessalonians 2:13; 2 Peter 1:21
  • Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 43:10,11; Matthew 28:19; Luke 3:22
  • ***************************************************************
  •  ‎Hebrews 11:1 · ‎Hebrews 11:6 · ‎1 Timothy 4:10

dealing with
BELIEFS
that are
fundamental truths

"In a nutshell, the early Christians BELIEVED. They simply, by faith, believed with their whole hearts the powerful truths taught in the Scriptures. It changed them from the inside out."
Randy Frazee

BUT an IMPORTANT VERSE that came to me after I wrote my 2nd BELIEVE post on "E" Eagerly Expecting ... is another one I'm considering:


All the things you pray and ask for—believe that you have received them, and you will have them” (Mark 11:24 HCSB). "

which is kinda what I wrote in that blog post






To my faithful visitors;
all of you who spend your valuable time here with me
I do appreciate you so much!

Thank you for taking your time to visit!

Love, Sweet blessings & Hugs!

DIOS TE BENDIGA
GOD BLESS YOU
