Receive From My Hand

 

Please receive
these gifts from me

for Him in you
I see

and I’m blessed
whenever I give

as God is gracious
to me.

**********

I see You in the faces of others, for You are with me.

**********

“And Jacob said, ‘No, please, if I have now found favor in your sight, then receive my present from my hand, inasmuch as I have seen your face as though I had seen the face of God, and you were pleased with me.’ “

“Please take my blessing that is brought to you, because God has dealt graciously with me, and because I have enough.”

Genesis 33:10,11 NKJV

The Answer

 

The answer to godliness
isn’t found

in the world’s
systems and rules

but in the Word
made flesh

believed, received
Holy Spirit proved.

**********

I can live a godly life for You are with me.

**********

“It is quite true that the way to live a godly life is not an easy matter. But the answer lies in Christ, who came to earth as a man, was proved spotless and pure in His Spirit, was served by angels, was preached among the nations, was accepted by men everywhere and was received up again to His glory in heaven.”

1 Timothy 3:14 TLB

Effective

 

The word works
wonders in us

as we remember
who it’s from

not simply those
who speak it

but truly the Lord
above.

**********

You are with me and Your word works effectively in me.

**********

“For this reason we also thank God without ceasing, because when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you welcomed it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which also effectively works in you who believe.”

1Thessalonians 2:13 NKJV

Hear And See

 

It is up to me
to receive, believe

no one else
can do it for me

so I pray
my eyes to see

and my ears to hear
continually .

***********

You establish what I hear and see.

“Therefore let it be known to you that the salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles, and they will hear it.” Acts 28:28 NKJV

A Hard Word

 

When there is
a hard word

that I bring
to you

listen
and receive it

do what you
must do.

You establish my ability to hear a hard word.

“Behold, I set before you the way of life and the way of death. He who remains in this city shall die by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence; but he who goes out and defects to the Chaldeans who besiege you, he shall live, and his life shall be as a prize to him.” Jeremiah 21:8,9 NKJV

Ask, Seek, Knock

 

Ask of Me
and I will give to you

seek Me
and you will find

knock and
watch Me open

doors of
every kind.

You establish answers to my questions.

“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.” Matthew 7:7,8 NKJV

He Who Has An Ear

 

You listen
and hear
ready
to receive

for you’re
an overcomer
with faith
to believe.

Jesus establishes my hearing.

“He who has an ear let him hear what the Soirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give some of the hidden manna to eat. And I will give him a white stone and on the stone a new name written which no one knows except him who receives it.” Revelation2:17 NKJV

Eternal

 

You were
born of Me
when you
believed

given
eternal life
My witness
received.

A laid down life is eternal.

“Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God. This is He who came by water and blood – Jesus Christ . . .and it is the Spirit who bears witness, because the Spirit is truth. He who believes in the Son of God has the witness in himself. . .And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.” 1 John 5:1,6,10,11 NKJV

Inheritance Keepers

“So the inheritance of the children of Israel shall not change hands from tribe to tribe, for everyone of the children of Israel shall keep the inheritance of the tribe of the fathers.” Numbers 36:7

Those leaving behind an inheritance must be concerned about it going into the right hands and being handled rightly.

Thank You, Father, for the inheritance we all receive through Jesus Christ Your Son. And here’s a simple poem . . .

Given By God

There’s an inheritance
I received from my Father

a place of peace and rest
when I believed

but I cannot give
it to another

each child must come
individually.

This is the last post from Numbers. Thank you so much for helping and supporting me through it all! Tomorrow we’re headed back to the New Testament for the Gospel According to Luke.
