The One That Got Away [Until Now] Part
SCRIPTURE: "...LET US REJOICE AND BE GLAD IN IT..." Psalm 118:24
A faith which behaves is a faith which saves...and the bedrock of our believing is Jesus. Trust ye Him! His big move on our behalf awaits our agreement. America, listen up.
"There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death." Proverbs 14:12
"Seek the Lord while He may be found; call upon Him while He is near." Isaiah 55:6
"Unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God." John 3:3
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16
Simeon speaking:
"Now Lord, Thou dost let Thy bond-servant depart in peace, according to Thy word; for my eyes have seen Thy salvation, which Thou hast prepared in the presence of all peoples, a light of revelation to the gentiles, and the glory of Thy people Israel." Luke 2:29-32
Hereof the overarching mercy of God meets both spiritual 'Israel' and 'Edom' [and as well the literal descendants of Jacob and Esau] with a common salvation, in Christ.
[Interesting that in Hebrew both Edom and Adam share the same characters, with the shared meaning of 'humanity']
That's good news for you and I.
Thanks be to God.
Merry Christmas, daily!
PRAYER: Dear Lord, let me appreciate beyond my distractedness each and every day the need to know You more, and with that to be available to weather this roller-coaster life of ours with the anchor of truth, having Jesus, and in Him, having peace. I pray that the gift of life in me will be sufficiently impressive to bring confession, and usher in blessing, that my yielding will bring uplift, in Jesus' name. I shall rejoice and be glad, in Him. Amen.

Amen, to seek Him where He maybe found. To call upon Him while He is near. Thanks for the encouragement.
Amen, Bro. Brockington. “America, bless God!”
