Greetings to all my friends out there , I hope everyone out there is having a blessed day. I always welcome any input on my newsletters. My sincere desire is everyone will be touched and blessed by a word or a poem I put in these newsletters May the blessings of God fall on each and everyone.Todays Psalm 11: 1 In the LORD I take refuge.
How then can you say to me:
"Flee like a bird to your mountain.
2 For look, the wicked bend their bows;
they set their arrows against the strings
to shoot from the shadows
at the upright in heart.
3 When the foundations are being destroyed,
what can the righteous do ?"
4 The LORD is in his holy temple;
the LORD is on his heavenly throne.
He observes the sons of men;
his eyes examine them.
5 The LORD examines the righteous,
but the wicked and those who love violence
his soul hates.
6 On the wicked he will rain
fiery coals and burning sulfur;
a scorching wind will be their lot.
7 For the LORD is righteous,
he loves justice;
upright men will see his face.
Psalm27:4 One thing I ask of the LORD ,
this is what I seek:
that I may dwell in the house of the LORD
all the days of my life,
to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD
and to seek him in his temple.
5 For in the day of trouble
he will keep me safe in his dwelling;
he will hide me in the shelter of his tabernacle
and set me high upon a rock.
IN YOU LORD*
In You O Lord I put my trust, I take refuge in Your loving arms. For it is there, I am safe from all harm. When I look around I see evil all around me, but You are near O Lord, You keep me safe from the wicked. You hold me close to Your heart and I know You will protect me, for You love me. Lord, You sit on the throne of my heart. I take refuge in You my Lord. For I know you will cut done all my enemies. You will keep me safe from the attacks of the foe. Therefore I will place all my trust in You. For I know My Lord will se me through. I will give thanks to You Lord, I will praise You from my heart, for you have saved me from all attacks of the enemy. By Wanda Jess, Nov20 2004-

NEW TESTAMENT*..
Hebrews 1
7In speaking of the angels he says,
"He makes his angels winds,
his servants flames of fire." 8But about the Son he says,
"Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever,
and righteousness will be the scepter of your kingdom.
9You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness;
therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions
Hebrews 8
1The point of what we are saying is this: We do have such a high priest, who sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven, 2and who serves in the sanctuary, the true tabernacle set up by the Lord, not by man.
Hebrews 12
1Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. 2Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. 3Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.
Revelation 19
4The twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God, who was seated on the throne. And they cried:
"Amen, Hallelujah!"
5Then a voice came from the throne, saying:
"Praise our God,
all you his servants,
you who fear him,
both small and great!"
6Then I heard what sounded like a great multitude, like the roar of rushing waters and like loud peals of thunder, shouting:
"Hallelujah!
For our Lord God Almighty reigns.
THE LORD IS IN HIS HOLY TEMPLE*
The Lord is in His Holy temple, the Lord is on His heavenly throne. He watches us day and night. He knows and sees all we do.The Lord is in His Holy temple, the Lord is on His heavenly throne. His love reaches down and touches a heart that is faithful and true. O Lord , how beautiful You must be, more beautiful than this heart can see. You sit in heaven on Your throne. You are always watching, You are always home. The Lord is in His holy temple, He sits in beauty on His throne. I will bow my knees in worship, Christ the Everlasting Lord. O Lord You watch over all, to the greatest and the small. You even see the sparrow fall. My eyes look to You, such beauty I cannot fully imagine now,, but someday I will, behold Your beauty Lord, I will see You face to face. The one I love, the one I adore, Jesus my Savior, my Redeemer and Lord. The Lord is in His Holy Temple, the Lord is on His heavenly throne...by Wanda Jess,Nov20, 2004-based on Psalms11.

So many out there that do not not know You, so many angry and hurt, trying to fill there lifes with treasures here on earth, and there are others filling that space inside with drugs that in the end it will only destroy them. I wish they could know that the greatest treasure they will ever find is You O Lord. So many out there hurting Lord, so many dying, why cant they see what they really need. Their only hope is You Lord. In You Lord they will find everything they need. They are on their way to a place, where their is no turning back, and no second chances, just endless torment.

Why do they think they will be happy with the treasures they have, and they seem never to be satisfied, nothing can fill that emptyness inside but You Lord.I know this to be true in my heart. And Lord there is also many christians out there who are hurting, they are being attacked on everyside. Lord I pray You will bring healing to the hurts that they have, and I bind every attack of the enemy, and I pray You will release them and set them free from the chains that bind them. Give them strength and a new purpose Lord, give them wings like eagles so that they will soar with You, and to help to bring more of the lost and hurt home to You.
