Meditations for the Monastic-At-Heart
Now is My+ soul troubled;
and what shall I+ say ...
FATHER,
save ME+
from this hour ?
but for this cause
came I+ unto this hour.
FATHER,
Glorify Thy Name.
Then
came there a Voice from Heaven, saying,
I have both glorified IT,
and will glorify IT again.
John12:27-28

Meditation Verse
Ephesians 1:11
KJV
In WHOM+
also we have obtained
an inheritance,
being predestinated
according to the purpose
of HIM WHO worketh
all things after the counsel
of HIS own Will:
Literal
Greek:
In
WHOM+ also we were allotted , we being pre-defined, according to
the setting forth of the working of all things according to the
purpose of HIS
Will.
+ + +
Meditation
We
remember: The LORD invites all human beings to come to HIM through JESUS HIS
Beloved SON+.
We
recall: The FATHER set up a sacrificial system for whosoever
would choose to come to HIM through
JESUS, the Final PASSOVER LAMB+.
We know: The
FATHER ordained ahead of time that humans who "died"
with CHRIST and were buried with HIM+ in Baptism... would
be chosen to be in a special group, separated and apart from all other human
beings.
We
understand: Those
"set-apart" ones who voluntarily yield their lives unto CHRIST the
LORD are called "the Elect, the Chosen" because they elected to serve JESUS. They
chose to follow HIM+ instead of self.
We see: This
set-apart group who lives for JESUS exists
on earth.
Let's
look at the Greek once more:
In WHOM+
also we were allotted or were inherited ,
we being pre-defined,
according to
the setting forth of the working of all things
according to the purpose
of HIS
Will.
Now in
Ephesians 1:11, we see: This
set-apart group who lives for JESUS on
earth will also live with JESUS in
Heaven.
Furthermore, we who delight in JESUS
CHRIST not only obtain an inheritance...
we ourselves
BECOME the inheritance ...
of CHRIST HIMSELF+ !
(See Revelation 21).
The FATHER has
·
so ordained it,
·
pre-planned it and
·
set the definitions of this plan
·
before the foundation of the
world, and
·
HE works all things towards this end... for
those who delight in CHRIST.
Do we delight
in CHRIST JESUS?
+ + +
Let
us pray:
Yes,
LORD JESUS, we delight in YOU+ !
We
are happiest when YOU+ are glorified, praised, and worshipped in all our
friends, our families, and with all voices.
We
see those unsaved ones, LORD, who do not know the terrors awaiting them.
Help
us to be more open to talking with them about YOU+, The LIGHT of our life.
Help
us to listen to YOUR+ leading, to bring them to YOU+.
Help
us to care, for YOU+ died in YOUR+ care for each one of us. Amen.
+ + +
Worthy is the LAMB+.
Worthy is The LAMB+
that was slain.
Worthy is the LAMB+,
slain
from the foundation
of the earth.
Revelation 13:8
+ + +
PRAISE and THANKSGIVING
be to The FATHER,
and to HIS
Beloved SON+
JESUS CHRIST,
and to
the Blessed HOLY SPIRIT.
ONE GOD:
FATHER,
SON+,
and HOLY SPIRIT,
both now and forever,
world without end.
Amen.
