SCRIPT FOR TODAY: PDCP- 12/25- “Hallelujah! It Really Did Happen!” (Isaiah 9:6)
SCRIPT FOR TODAY: Double Entendre (meaning)…(1) A prescription (script) prescribed, by The Great Physician, for us to take each day, for our benefit and (2) A script written, for the purpose of giving direction and guidance to us, for our everyday life, in the way and manner we ought to be conducting our daily lives, given to us, by the Great playwright, in the sky, The Author of all that is good, right, just and holy. Blessings…
SCRIPT FOR TODAY: 12/25- “Hallelujah! It Really Did Happen!” (Isaiah 9:6)
Premise Question: So, just what did really happen on that unique and oh so wonderful and most glorious night?
“For a child is born to us, a son is given to us. The government will rest on his shoulders. And he will be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” (Isaiah 9:6 NLT)
For The Immortal Divine Word of Papa God, became mortal; taking upon Himself the human form of flesh and blood, as the only begotten Son of The Sovereign LORD GOD Almighty’s provision to us. When He comes to earth, to dwell amongst humankind, as a humble servant, it will be to carry the weight of the world’s transgressions upon His shoulders; ultimately becoming The Supreme Ruler of everything and everyone. And, He will have and be known by these magnificent names: The Wonderful Counselor—astonishing all of humanity with His awesome wisdom, guidance and great comfort, The Almighty God—for there is none that can be compared to His Omnipotence, The Everlasting Father—because He is eternal, without a beginning and without an end, The Prince of Peace—He, who becomes, is and shall forever be, The King of kings and LORD of Lords; establishing a Kingdom of Peace, for all of humankind, even into infinity and beyond. (Isaiah 9:6 PDCP)
Bottom Line: The prophet Isaiah, who foretold of the birth of The Anointed One, somewhere in the neighborhood of about 700 years before the blessed event occurred, but is now, a historical fact, accepted and believed by the multiplied multitudes of The Company of The Redeemed, some 2000 plus years beyond the blessed event that occurred on that extraordinarily unique, oh so wondrous and most glorious Holy Night, is now to be told by all members in good standing, of The Company of The Redeemed, to everyone everywhere in the world—this wonderful and glorious message of Good News, which is: “Hallelujah! Joy to the world! The LORD has come! Let earth rejoice and receive her King!”
Merry Christmas and may the blessings of good will, great joy and perfect peace of The LORD GOD Almighty be upon us all! Blessings…

SCRIPT FOR TODAY: PDCP- 12/21- “A Word Of Comfort And Assurance Given To Joseph And All Of Humankind!” (Matthew 1:21)
SCRIPT FOR TODAY: Double Entendre (meaning)…(1) A prescription (script) prescribed, by The Great Physician, for us to take each day, for our benefit and (2) A script written, for the purpose of giving direction and guidance to us, for our everyday life, in the way and manner we ought to be conducting our daily lives, given to us, by the Great playwright, in the sky, The Author of all that is good, right, just and holy. Blessings…
SCRIPT FOR TODAY: 12/21- “A Word Of Comfort And Assurance Given To Joseph And All Of Humankind!” (Matthew 1:21)
Premise Question: What are we to do today with the message Papa God delivered to Joseph, concerning Papa God’s Only Begotten Son?
“And she will have a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.”” (Matthew 1:21 NLT)
The Angel Gabriel, in speaking to Joseph, on behalf of, as well as, being the mouthpiece of Papa God, tells him that Mary, his betrothed, will bring forth a child of The Most High; The Anointed One, a Son, and that he, Joseph, is to confer upon Him the name Jesus. This particular name carries, within its title, The Savior of humankind, for it is He, that will rescue humanity from the certain plight of their transgressions, which is, first and foremost, that of being eternally separated from the presence of Their Creator; thereby, causing them to miss out on Papa God’s mercy and His divine and most gracious, loving purpose for their lives. (Matthew 1:21 PDCP)
Bottom Line: Pause for a moment to ponder the incredible amount of confidence and trust that Papa God had in Mary and Joseph…Wow! It’s almost too difficult to grasp or fathom.
Now, take another pause and reality check, of the fact that Papa God, still today, is placing His complete confidence and full assurance in us; by entrusting each one of us to continue to share, with everyone everywhere, this great and marvelous message of Good News, assurance, truth and His great comfort, love, deliverance and life-giving freedom for all of humankind! Blessings…

SCRIPT FOR TODAY: PDCP- 12/19- “God Is Personally With Us!” (Isaiah 7:14)
SCRIPT FOR TODAY: Double Entendre (meaning)…(1) A prescription (script) prescribed, by The Great Physician, for us to take each day, for our benefit and (2) A script written, for the purpose of giving direction and guidance to us, for our everyday life, in the way and manner we ought to be conducting our daily lives, given to us, by the Great playwright, in the sky, The Author of all that is good, right, just and holy. Blessings…
SCRIPT FOR TODAY: 12/19- “God Is Personally With Us!” (Isaiah 7:14)
Premise Question: What meaning does The Prophet Isaiah’s prophecy, concerning The Savior of humankind, have and hold for us today?
“All right then, the Lord himself will give you the sign. Look! The virgin will conceive a child! She will give birth to a son and will call him Immanuel (which means ‘God is with us’).” (Isaiah 7:14 NLT)
As a direct consequence of you, oh king Ahaz, being afraid to trust and try The LORD, per His direct request and command to you, and because you are also full of false humility, The Sovereign LORD GOD Almighty Himself will affix His personal signature to a confirming manifestation, a sign, with the message of redemption, for all people everywhere, thus, obligating Himself to fulfill it in this most spectacular and miraculous way: A young, undefiled, pure woman, having not yet been with a man, will become pregnant, without ever having been with a man, and she shall bring forth and deliver, by giving birth too, The Deliverer and Savior of humankind, for He is The Divine Immaculate only Son of The Sovereign LORD GOD Almighty, and she will call Him by this Name, Immanuel, which means, God is personally with us. (Isaiah 7:14 PDCP)
Bottom Line: What the prophet Isaiah was prophesying and looking forward to, we now can look back to; as we are now given the opportunity to be able to personally experience everyday, the wonderful peace, the glorious manifestation and everlasting presence of The LORD Jesus Christ—The Redeemer of humankind, by and through The Spirit of Papa God Himself being in our daily lives, and then, throughout all of eternity! Blessings…

TIS THE SEASON OF GIVING AND RELEASING!
TIS THE SEASON OF GIVING AND RELEASING!
“It’s more blessed to give than receive.” -Jesus Christ, The Lord…
“it’s a blessing for the one who is released, but, also a bigger blessing for the one who releases.” -I’ve said this, as well as others…
“It’s more blessed to be righteous than right.” -Garry Meineke…
You might win the battle of being right, but you won’t necessarily win the war—you might end of dead right! For when you demand “your right of way,” you may very well end up “dead right away!”
The more prudent way, is to give up your right, after all, it’s more blessed to give than receive…Jesus really did say that and He really did mean to say it!
Some might say, “but, I’ve been wronged!” You may very well be right, but it doesn’t have any power or influence to make you better. Only releasing the wrong will make it right and cause you to get better!
If you choose not to do it Papa God’s way, by releasing the wrong, then you won’t get better, you’ll just become bitter and have a set of bigger problems to eventually deal with, that in order to get relief, you’ll have to release to get better! There is no other way around it to get better.
Papa God’s Word tells us that revenge is His to repay, not ours!
Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord. On the contrary: “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.” Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. (Romans 12:19-21 NIV)
His way is the only way that works. Our way will always be ineffective and will not ever produce the desired result!
We should also not have the attitude, because we know The LORD will avenge us, “okay LORD, go get em and get em real good!”
Nor should we allow our pride or bitterness to rule our lives, but choose to clothe ourselves in humility. Pride and bitterness leads us to utter and total humiliation, while humility and releasing leads us to being exalted in due time!
Look after each other, so that none of you fails to receive the grace of God! Watch out that no poisonous root of bitterness grows up to trouble you, corrupting many. (Hebrews 12:15 NLT)
Tis the season for giving and releasing! Ah ha, perhaps the greatest gift you can give someone this year, is the gift of releasing them. Then, you too will receive an even greater gift of being released, no longer held captive, but set free, with liberty, peace and joy!
Happy giving and releasing season to all! Blessings…
SCRIPT FOR TODAY: PDCP- 11/14- “Papa God’s Plans For You!”(Jeremiah 29:11)
SCRIPT FOR TODAY: Double Entendre (meaning)…(1) A prescription (script) prescribed, by The Great Physician, for us to take each day, for our benefit and (2) A script written, for the purpose of giving direction and guidance to us, for our everyday life, in the way and manner we ought to be conducting our daily lives, given to us, by the Great playwright, in the sky, The Author of all that is good, right, just and holy. Blessings…
SCRIPT FOR TODAY: 11/14- “Papa God’s Plans For You!”(Jeremiah 29:11)
Premise Question: As a believer, just how excited, encouraged, enthralled, enlivened and even emboldened, can and should one be, with such a wonderfully comforting, and completely assuring, prognostication?
“For I know the plans I have for you,” says the LORD. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.”
(Jeremiah 29:11 NLT)
For I, The Sovereign LORD GOD Almighty, am not in the dark, ill prepared nor unaware, when it comes to knowing what My future plans entail for your life. Therefore, I, The LORD, emphatically affirm and declare, making it a certainty, with this pronouncement, that my blueprint for your life will be carried out to fruition; which is, to assure your success in seeing that you flourish in the place that I’ve planted you, and that, without suffering loss or injury. Furthermore, My blueprint for you shall bring an expectant hope, that will not fail or disappoint you, but shall, with confidence and full assurance, restore unto you a bright future, filled with many wonderful prospects and satisfying rewards. (Jeremiah 29:11 PDCP)
Bottom Line: Now, before someone gets their dander up, about personalizing the principles and promises of this scripture, spoken to a specific people for a specific time, there are plenty of other examples in scripture which clearly delineate Papa God’s wonderfully gracious and glorious plans for His children’s future.
So, how excited should and can we be? Extremely exhilarated, with an exaggerated, exuberant explosion, of joyful expressions of praise, worship and thanksgiving! F.U.T.U.R.E.- Finally Understand That U R Eternal! Accept it! Rejoice in it! Share it with others!
Upon further review, check these scrips out…(Hebrews 2:5, Romans 8:17,18,19,23, Ephesians 4:4) Blessings…

SCRIPT FOR TODAY: PDCP- 10/21- “Take Advantage Of Every Opportunity You’re Given—To Bless And Refresh Others!” (Galatians 6:10)
SCRIPT FOR TODAY: Double Entendre (meaning)…(1) A prescription (script) prescribed, by The Great Physician, for us to take each day, for our benefit and (2) A script written, for the purpose of giving direction and guidance to us, for our everyday life, in the way and manner we ought to be conducting our daily lives, given to us, by the Great playwright, in the sky, The Author of all that is good, right, just and holy. Blessings…
SCRIPT FOR TODAY: 10/21- “Take Advantage Of Every Opportunity You’re Given—To Bless And Refresh Others!” (Galatians 6:10)
Premise Question: Does this passage of scripture really mean, that we, as members of The Company of The Redeemed, are supposed to be good to absolutely “everyone,” when given the opportunity to do so?
“Therefore, whenever we have the opportunity, we should do good to everyone—especially to those in the family of faith.” (Galatians 6:10 NLT)
Consequently, since we, every member of The Company of The Redeemed, are already well on our way to experiencing eternal bliss, complete joy and attaining a wonderful harvest because we have not given up, but have trusted The LORD GOD, and have persevered in making the most of every opportunity given us; to bless and refresh, with generous gifts and acts of great kindness expressed towards all people everywhere, no matter their race, culture, or creed—and that, as always, we should be giving particular attention, with extraordinary watchful care, to those who are part and parcel, being members in good standing, of the family known and recognized as, The Company of The Redeemed. (Galatians 6:10 PDCP)
Bottom Line: The simple and most direct response to the premise question is: Whenever, wherever and to whomever, when given the opportunity to be merciful and kind, generous and gracious, patient and long suffering, compassionate and caring, encouraging and refreshing, we should absolutely never forgo or miss the opportunity presented us, of sharing Papa God’s goodness and loving kindness, with anyone and everyone we may come in contact with; whether they are good or bad, obstinate or indifferent, friend or foe, related by blood or related by and through the blood of our most precious Savior, The LORD Jesus Christ, we ought to take full advantage of doing all the good that is within our power and ability to do so!
And this, in spite of whatever the attitude and disposition of those we are sharing the goodness of The LORD with, may be! Just so long as we are always honoring, glorifying and praising The LORD GOD Almighty, by doing so. Blessings…

SCRIPT FOR TODAY: PDCP- 10/14- “When All Else Fails—He Still Remains The Same And Continues To Sustain!” (Psalms 73:26)
SCRIPT FOR TODAY: Double Entendre (meaning)…(1) A prescription (script) prescribed, by The Great Physician, for us to take each day, for our benefit and (2) A script written, for the purpose of giving direction and guidance to us, for our everyday life, in the way and manner we ought to be conducting our daily lives, given to us, by the Great playwright, in the sky, The Author of all that is good, right, just and holy. Blessings…
SCRIPT FOR TODAY: 10/14- “When All Else Fails—He Still Remains The Same And Continues To Sustain!” (Psalms 73:26)
Premise Question: Regardless of what may happen or what we may have to go through and endure in this life, what and who always remains a constant and through it all, will never abandon, forsake or let us down, but will in fact, continue to remain, forever and ever, the same?
“My health may fail, and my spirit may grow weak, but God remains the strength of my heart; he is mine forever.” (Psalms 73:26 NLT)
“Everything around me, including my health and my heart, may falter and fail, but The LORD GOD Almighty, is now, has been, and shall always continue to forever be, without end, the unfailing, ever refreshing, truly encouraging and renewing, joyful strong force and strength of my innermost being; deep within the within, of my heart and soul, as He shall always be, (for nothing else can even begin to fulfill or satisfy) my portion and lot in life—the epitome of all that completely fills and sustains my life.” (Psalms 73:26 PDCP)
Bottom Line: There are probably, in many of our individual lives, going to be an occasion, a time, an event, situation or circumstance, whereby, we may be subject to slipping, faltering, floundering, fizzling or falling short and perhaps even completely failing, and as a result, becoming embittered because of it all; torn up on the inside, by resentfulness, malice, hate and an unforgiving heart, lacking any physical or spiritual vim, vigor or vitality, completely bankrupt and devoid of a flourishing and refreshing life.
But, The LORD GOD Almighty, who is ever merciful and enduring, faithful and true, will come to our aid and rescue, when we call upon His Everlasting Name! And then, He will lift us up out of the mire and mud, stuck in the ditch, trench or chasm we’ve fallen into, and set our feet upon solid ground, even The Rock of our salvation.
It is then, that The LORD GOD Almighty begins leading, guiding and giving us wise counsel, that directs our feet onto the path and into the way, that will bring us back into a right and holy relationship with Him and that ultimately leads us to our most glorious and divine destiny.
That is why we desire Him more than we desire anything else upon this earth! Because He, The LORD GOD Almighty, is the quintessence of our existence, as He is our treasure trove, our wellspring of life and the secret to a thriving, more than just surviving, flourishing, completely satisfying and fulfilling existence!
When all else fails around me, even when I fail, He remains ever the same; for I am His and He is mine, nothing’s ever going to change that, for He will always continue to sustain me, forever and forever, without end! Blessings…

SCRIPT FOR TODAY: PDCP- 10/12- “Blessing And Cursing Ought Not To Come From The Same Source And Same Place!” (James 3:10)
SCRIPT FOR TODAY: Double Entendre (meaning)…(1) A prescription (script) prescribed, by The Great Physician, for us to take each day, for our benefit and (2) A script written, for the purpose of giving direction and guidance to us, for our everyday life, in the way and manner we ought to be conducting our daily lives, given to us, by the Great playwright, in the sky, The Author of all that is good, right, just and holy. Blessings…
SCRIPT FOR TODAY: 10/12- “Blessing And Cursing Ought Not To Come From The Same Source And Same Place!” (James 3:10)
Premise Question: How can blessing and cursing come from the same source and place, and is this even possible; and why should we ever give any credence to or be tolerant of it, and finally, how and what can and should we do about confronting it?
“And so blessing and cursing come pouring out of the same mouth. Surely, my brothers and sisters, this is not right!” (James 3:10 NLT)
What is this that I’m hearing, coming from your mouths; both, expressions of appreciation, grateful homage, with high acclaim and devotion, as well as, expressions of profane obscenities that are blasphemous, filled with obloquial hurtful abusive language? My most beloved and cherished fellow members of The Company of The Redeemed, this should not be occurring, as it is completely unacceptable and incongruent behavior, that should never be a part of our common practice, as believers in Jesus Christ. (James 3:10 PDCP)
Bottom Line: Oh, but it all too often, unfortunately, ends up being reality and is the case! The reason why one can have both blessing and cursing, coming, seemingly, from the same source, is because there has been some kind of pollution spill at the place of the pure fountainhead source, the heart, and then, it flows out from there as no longer being pure, but polluted, convoluted and diluted by the essence of what is contained within the spewing, spouting, spilling of raw filthy sewage, emanating from a polluted heart; which then targets and delivers its vileness, to its intended recipients, with a poisonous and gushing tongue! Most often, it has a negative affect on more than just its intended victims, as there is always an overflow of this kind of expression!
We must not ever allow our pure source, our hearts, which have been cleansed and made pure by the shed blood of Jesus Christ, that was applied to our hearts, at the time of our salvation conversion experience, to once again become polluted with vile and sinful practices and behaviors, nor bitterness, resentment and a reluctance or reticence to us being unwilling to walk in release and extend forgiveness whenever and to whomever, as is needed and necessary.
We must always be cognizant and aware of our credibility and reputation, needing to be established and kept, as it is always going to be put on display for all to see; especially those that are still in darkness and needing to be set free. So, therefore, we must not ever act in a way that is unbecoming to a follower of Jesus Christ, but if and when we do, which some of us most certainly have done or will do, perhaps even yet again, we must choose to immediately, with humility, sue for peace, seek the mercy and forgiveness of Papa God and others, and then begin again, with the powerful and efficacious cleansing that comes as a result of our confession and repentance.
The issue of blessing and cursing coming from seemingly the same delivery source—our mouths, should never be tolerated and should always be confronted swiftly; by ourselves within ourselves, and also by those who are spiritual, and who will, in love, with a humble, gentle, merciful and kind spirit, and with the divine and intentional purpose of bringing restoration, healing and reconciliation, into the life of the one being held accountable.
Remember, dearly beloved brothers and sisters, The Holy Writ declares that: Out of the preponderance of what is contained in the abundance of the heart, the mouth is filled with it, and the tongue spews and vomits it out all over anyone that is close enough to be spilled all over, with its vileness.
But, if the source is kept pure and the mouth and tongue is under control and kept clean, then there is much blessing, encouragement and refreshing that shall gush forth and pour over anyone close by!
Each and every day, we have a choice, we can choose to either spread Papa God’s GRACE, or spray man’s MACE! GRACE is: God’s Redeeming Atonement Covers Everyone! MACE is: Misery, Antagonism, Criticism, Entangling!
When our hearts are free of debris, then it’s easy to spread Papa God’s GRACE! So, keep your heart free of debris, flush the flesh and stay refreshed, and you’ll be a refreshing and a wellspring of blessings to others, as well! Blessings…

SCRIPT FOR TODAY: PDCP- 10/09- “Take Just One Tiny Sip, And You Will Surely See, And Then Want More!” (Psalms 34:8)
SCRIPT FOR TODAY: Double Entendre (meaning)…(1) A prescription (script) prescribed, by The Great Physician, for us to take each day, for our benefit and (2) A script written, for the purpose of giving direction and guidance to us, for our everyday life, in the way and manner we ought to be conducting our daily lives, given to us, by the Great playwright, in the sky, The Author of all that is good, right, just and holy. Blessings…
SCRIPT FOR TODAY: 10/09- “Take Just One Tiny Sip, And You Will Surely See, And Then Want More!” (Psalms 34:8)
Premise Question: Where can we go to find real joy, true satisfaction, complete fulfillment and safe refuge, that will truly satisfy our hunger, and quench the thirsting of our souls?
“Taste and see that the LORD is good. Oh, the joys of those who take refuge in him!” (Psalms 34:8 NLT)
Come see, perceive and receive, ascertaining for yourself, by personally sampling just one sip of The LORD GOD Almighty’s wonderful goodness; His great generosity, lavishing love, magnificent mercy and the grandeur of His gracious favor. For when you drink in His goodness, you shall absolutely experience an exhilarating sensation, that will not be disappointing in anywise and will be quite tasty, satisfying and completely fulfilling to your spirit, soul and body; bringing you back again and again, to drink deep to your fill, even to overflowing, of the pure and refreshing, thirst quenching drink, that totally restores and renews. You will be greatly blessed, as you joyfully partake, drinking in His goodness and taking cover and refuge, in the shelter of His protection, safety and manifest presence. (Psalms 34:8 PDCP)
Bottom Line: It’s quite apparent, as well as somewhat revealing, that for many of us, as humankind, we tend to hunger and thirst after many different kinds of things in this life. We make every effort and attempt, in order to try and satisfy the deep hunger and unquenchable thirst, that comes from deep within the within of each of our innermost beings; which is the very core of who we are and what we truly want, need and desire.
Some of us give ourselves over to divers kinds of behaviors, whether they be inordinate affections, good, bad, indifferent or even acceptable and safe behaviors; always on the ultimate quest, of searching and seeking out just the right one or ones that will bring succor, joy, satisfaction and fulfillment to our life and existence.
There are others of us, who try and find total satisfaction, complete fulfillment, real joy, great happiness and a sense of completing ourselves, through the various and sundry relationships that we have and develop with others; putting a tremendous amount of pressure upon ourselves and them, to perform up to the level of our, (sad but true, for many of us) unrealistic expectations. This then, because of disappointment or hurt, may lead some to look for a sense of relief or a way to escape; so they, therefore, may give themselves over to abusing different kinds of substances, along with activities that become extremely destructive; such as, but not limited too, alcohol, drugs, porn, video game playing, gambling, adrenaline rush junkies, dangerous adventures, just to mention a few.
Many of us may even have goals, dreams, desires and aspirations for having a successful career, with lots of recognition, validation, commendation and great achievements; which in themselves, are not necessarily bad, if we have the proper attitude, motivation and values, with a divine perspective and purpose.
What have we committed our lives too? What have we invested and given our time, treasure and talent too? What are we consumed with, in this life? What drives us? What or who are we pursuing, in this life?
Many of us seem to have a tendency to want to sample and try everything and everyone in this life! When what we truly need, desire and want, is set right before our eyes; for it truly is fully portrayed and simply explained for each of us, in Papa God’s Holy Writ, who is The Creator of all that is good, right, Holy and pure, and is also full of joy and His great unfailing love, mercy and grace.
He shows us all, in such a beautiful way, and easily understood manner, that anyone who will pause and listen, and then taste and see, will have their eyes opened, their understanding enlarged, their hearts filled, with His joy and love, and then, their spirit, soul and body will be absolutely refreshed, renewed and totally restored! Hallelujah!
Take a sip! I challenge and dare you to go for it! You’ll never regret it! Blessings…

SCRIPT FOR TODAY: PDCP- 09/21- “The LORD GOD Almighty—Your Papa God, Sings Songs Of Joy Over You!” (Zephaniah 3:17)
1 DAY LATE POST:
SCRIPT FOR TODAY: Double Entendre (meaning)…(1) A prescription (script) prescribed, by The Great Physician, for us to take each day, for our benefit and (2) A script written, for the purpose of giving direction and guidance to us, for our everyday life, in the way and manner we ought to be conducting our daily lives, given to us, by the Great playwright, in the sky, The Author of all that is good, right, just and holy. Blessings…
SCRIPT FOR TODAY: 09/21- “The LORD GOD Almighty—Your Papa God, Sings Songs Of Joy Over You!” (Zephaniah 3:17)
Premise Question: The conspicuously obvious question to ask is: Why would and does Papa God take great delight in you with extravagant expressions of mirth and gladness, and sing songs of exultation and joy over you?
“For the LORD your God is living among you. He is a mighty savior. He will take delight in you with gladness. With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.” (Zephaniah 3:17 NLT)
The LORD GOD Almighty—your Papa God, is mighty in battle; for there is none that can stand against Him. He has no peers, as a Mighty Warrior, for He is the overwhelming Victor in every skirmish, fight or combat encounter. He is ever present, close by your side, at all times, on every occasion, in support of you; no matter the situation or circumstance, every moment of every hour of each and every day of your life’s sojourn. He is always there to bring release, to save and rescue, and then ultimately to take great delight in redeeming you, as His very own. It is because of His great unfailing love for you, He will never again mention or bring to His remembrance, by reminding you of your past and the times or occasions where you faltered, failed and flopped. On the contrary, He will celebrate and rejoice, with jubilant festive songs of exultation, by singing Heavenly Melodies of joy and elation over you. (Zephaniah 3:17 PDCP)
Bottom Line: Papa God’s unfailing and absolutely immeasurable love that He has for us, His unique, made in His own image creation, is truly way beyond our perception, comprehension or understanding. But, we can accept the truth of His infallible Word, that He has chosen to live and reside amongst us, as our Mighty Warrior, Comforting Counselor and Redeeming Savior!
We can also accept that He is a lavishing loving and delightfully doting Papa God, who takes an extremely high degree of pleasure and enjoyment in singing songs of exultation and joy over us; making us glad, filling us with cheer and joy, calming all of our tortuous thoughts and worrisome fears, relieving us of apprehension and angst, dread and distress and causing us to fully experience a serene rest and tranquil peace.
Why would and does He do this? Because of His great love for His very own chosen children, of which we, The Company of The Redeemed, are most assuredly are! Blessings…
