Revelation 21:5 And He that sat upon the throne said, "Behold, I make all things new . . ."
Soon it will be midnight so I want to wish you a Happy New Year!! Yes "New"!!!
Old things are pass away, behold new things has come!!! That is from 2 Corinthians 5:17, my favorite verse. Yes, my friend, we are given a chance to start something new in 2013. God always has a plan even if we live it day by day, still God's grace are new every morning. Scripture often declare this: "His mercy is new every morning." Song declare this: "Morning by morning new mercy I see!"
When He said, "Behold, I make all things new," I sensed the "inner newness" inside of my spirit. So I pray that you will have the "new inner spirit" within you according to 2 Cor 5:17. In Jesus' name Amen.
So Happy New Year!!!

A guest is Rhoda Nelson of Minnesota has a "Christmas Song to share."
Tune "What A Friend We Have in Jesus"
While the little lambs were sleeping
On a clear cold winter night
Shepherds lonely watch were keeping
Saw a strange and wondrous sight
Angels from the realms of glory
Sang and brought good news to men
They found the babe within a manger
He's as precious now as then
Wise men wondered where to find Him
As they traveled from afar
Bearing gifts they sought the Christ child
So they followed yonder star
Gold and Frankenstein they carried
To honor Jesus Christ the King
So today we also worship
And gifts to Him we humbly bring

Hear O Israel
Bread Box Card and Prayer:
Deuteronomy 7:9 "The Lord thy God, He is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love Him."
Note: MERCY WITH THEM THAT LOVE HIM: God's choosing of Israel was motivated by His love for them (v.7-8). God promised to faithfully keep His covenant and show mercy to generation after generation of "them that love Him and keep His commandment" (6:4-9). (Note from Donald Stamps)
"Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord. And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart" (Deut. 6:4-6).
Dear Father, thank You for the Holy Spirit and for the strength He gives. Teach me how to fix my thoughts on You and Your love and power. In Jesus’ name, Amen!
Song: Singing His Praises
Singing His praises
Singing His love
Singing His praises
Come from above.
Singing His praises
Glorious divine
Singing His praises
Jesus is mine.

Keeping our love to Him, to Him be the glory,

Burden
Bread Box Card: Burden
Psalm 55:22 NKJV "Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and He shall sustain thee: He shall never suffer (let) the righteous to be moved."
QVLAB: "Give your burdens to the Lord, and He will take care of you. He will not permit the godly to slip and fall." Ps. 55:22.
References:
Ps. 37:5 Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust Him, and He will help you.
Ps. 112:6 Such people will not be overcome by evil circumstances (bad news). Those who are righteous will be long remembered.
Ps. 112:7 They do not fear bad news; they confidently trust the Lord to care for them.
1 Pet. 5:7 Give all your worries and cares to God, for He cares about what happens to you.
Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, when I carry my worries by myself, I realized that it shows that I have not trusted You fully. I come to You with a humble heart to recognize that You are concern with me. When I turn to You in prayer, I believe You will carry the weight in my heart that I and my friends are struggling with. Lord, I like the prayer card that quote: "Our trust is in Thee, O God. Let us never give in to discouragement." Thank You, Abba for the word of encouragement for me and my friends. In Jesus name we pray! Let us agree!
I am trusting God today!

My Testimony on Hope
The Hope Series from one through twenty-right are at
Deaf Prayer Partners Lifeline. Last September, it had
begun with the topic of Hope and prayers for almost two
weeks. It was a time when I felt the need to study the
topic on the "Hope." I felt like I need it for me.
Eventually, I learned that others went through a very
timing event as well. So I realized God was leading me
to study different topic related to the "Hope."
I have come to love this and it has done wonders to
me, personally. The topic, Hope is a wonderful topic
to know what God has for us. I want to share how I
came to know about Revelation, the book of hope.
When I came near to almost to the end of series on
Hope, I had wondered what would I come up with the
closure on Hope. One day I was taking a nap, and while
I was resting, God came to me and explained that the
book of Revelation is a book of hope. I didn't realize
it at that time. I couldn't sleep so I went into the
research to find out about this. I found it and I was
amazed and I shared it on Hope Series 27. God was right
and it was in the research. He knew that I need to find
this and share this with others.
2 Timothy 2:15a tells me to "Study to show thyself approved
unto God ..." Other translation says, "Work hard so God can
approve you ..."
May the Lord bless you.

Peace, Joy + Love
Good morning!
I was inspired to sing in sign language since yesterday (December 2, 2012) at the Deaf Church of Normal, Illinois. I haven't sung this for ages. It was a beautiful spontaneous spirit-filled feeling of peace, joy and love!
Song for the Day:
I've Got Peace, Joy + Love
1. I've got peace like a river,
peace like a river,
I've got peace like a river in my soul.
I've got peace like a river,
peace like a river,
I've got peace like a river in my soul.
2. I've got joy like a fountain,
joy like a fountain,
I've got joy like a fountain in my soul.
I've got joy like a fountain,
joy like a fountain,
I've got joy like a fountain in my soul.
3. I've got love for my neighbor,
love for my neighbor,
I've got love for my neighbor in my soul.
I've got love for my neighbor,
love for my neighbor,
I've got love for my neighbor in my soul.
(Inspiring Choruses Book)
Jesus said, "My peace I have given unto you ... It is not the same kind of peace that the world has. My peace is far greater so let not your heart be troubled. Believe in God. Believe also in Me."
May the Lord give you peace today!
