Let's Talk About Jesus!

Song:
Let's talk about Jesus!
The King of kings is He.
The Lord of lords supreme!
Throughout eternity.
The great I am the Way,
the truth, the Life, the door.
Let's talk about Jesus more and more.

Was not our hearts warm?
Luke 24:32
KJV: And they said to one another, Did not our heart
burn within us, while he talked with us by the way,
and while he opened to us the scriptures?
NCV: They said to each other, "It felt like a fire
burning in us when Jesus talked to us on the road
and explained the Scriptures to us."
AMP: And they said to one another, Was not our heart
greatly moved and burning within us while He was
talking with us on the road [and] as He opened and
explained to us [the sense of] the Scriptures?

Jesus on the Road to Emmaus
Luke 24:13-35
Dorothy: The song, "Let's talked about Jesus,"
reminds me of the story of two followers who were
on the way to a town called, Emmaus. They were
talking about Jesus because they didn't know that
Jesus had arose. When Jesus joined and walked with
them to Emmaus, they were discussing the Scriptures.
Later when their eyes were opened and they recognized
Him, and He vanished. They realized that when Jesus
talked about the Scriptures, their heart were inspired.
What does this means to me? It made me realized that
reading the Scriptures will inspired me, touched me,
healed me, blessed me, lifted me, changed my life and
get to know Jesus more and more. The Scriptures were all
about Jesus. The whole Bible is an inspiration from God.
Prayer: Dear Lord, help us to realize You have revealed
to us through Your Word, the Bible. Open our eyes to see
You, the same way You have opened two followers' eyes to
recognize You and Your Word. Help us to find someone to
talk about You and let our hearts burn within us.
In Jesus' name. Amen! God bless you!

Come unto Me

Song: Come unto Me
1. Hear the blessed Savior calling the oppressed,
“O ye heavy laden, come to Me and rest;
Come, no longer tarry, I your load will bear;
Bring Me every burden, bring Me every care.”
Chorus:
Come unto Me; I will give you rest;
Take my yoke upon you, Hear Me and be blest;
I am meek and lowly, Come and trust My might;
Come, My yoke is easy, And My burden’s light.

2. Are you disappointed, wandering here and there,
dragging chains of doubt and loaded down with care?
Do unholy feelings struggle in your breast?
Bring your case to Jesus, He will give you rest.

Matthew 11:28,29,30 Jesus said,
KJV: “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are
heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my
yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek
and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your
soul. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

NCV: “Come to me, all of you who are tired and
have heavy loads, and I will give you rest. Accept
my teachings and learn from me, because I am
gentle and humble in spirit, and you will find rest
for your lives. The teaching that I ask you to accept
is easy; the load I give you to carry is light.”

AMP: “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy-
laden and over burdened, and I will cause you to rest—
I will ease and relieve and refresh your souls. Take My
yoke upon you, and learn of Me; for I am gentle (meek)
and humble (lowly) in heart, and you will find rest—
relief, ease and refreshment and recreation and blessed
quiet—for your souls. (Jer.6:16) For My yoke is
wholesome (useful, good) not harsh, hard, sharp or
pressing, but comfortable, gracious and pleasant; and
My burden is light and easy to be borne.”

I Must Tell Jesus

Psalms 55:22
KJV: Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee:
He shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
NCV: Gives your worries to the Lord, and he will take care
of you. He will never let good people down.
AMP: Cast your burden on the Lord [releasing the weight of it]
and He will sustain (support) you; He will never allow the
[consistently] righteous to be moved—made to slip, fall or fail.
I Peter 5:7
KJV: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
NCV: Give all your worries to him, because he cares about you.
AMP: Casting the whole of your care—all your anxieties, all
your worries, all your concerns, once and for all—on Him;
for He cares for you affectionately, and cares about you
watchfully.
Song: I Must Tell Jesus
1. I must tell Jesus all of my trials;
I cannot bear these burdens alone;
In my distress He kindly will help me;
He ever loves and cares for His own.
Chorus:
I must tell Jesus! I must tell Jesus!
I cannot bear my burdens alone;
I must tell Jesus! I must tell Jesus!
Jesus can help me, Jesus alone.

2. I must tell Jesus all of my troubles;
He is a kind, compassionate friend;
If I but ask Him, He will deliver,
Make of my troubles quickly an end. [Then Chorus]
3. Tempted and tried, I need a great Savior,
One who can help my burdens to bear;
I must tell Jesus, I must tell Jesus;
He all my cares and sorrows will share. [Then chorus]

ASL song example you could use:
1. “I [give] Jesus all of my trials”:
2. “I [pour out] to Jesus all of my troubles;
3. “I [pour out my heart] to Jesus, I must [confess] Jesus;
Chorus: I must tell Jesus! [Me show feeling to] Jesus!
I cannot [patience] my [heavy] burdens alone.
I [confess my feelings] to Jesus! I must tell Jesus!
Jesus can help me, Jesus alone!

Praying For You

Song: I Am Praying for You
I have a Savior; He's pleading in glory,
A dear loving Savior Tho' earth-friends be few;
And now He is watching in tenderness o'er me,
And oh, that my Savior were your savior too.
For you I am praying, For you I am praying,
For you I am praying, I am praying for you.

2. I have a Father; to me He has given
A hope for eternity, blessed and true;
And soon He will call me to meet Him in heaven,
But oh, that He'd let me bring you with me too!
For You I am praying, For you I am praying,
Fro you I am praying, I am praying for you.

Jesus Prays for His Follower
John 17:1,20,21,24,25,26 NCV
V.1 "Father, the time has come. Give glory to
Your Son so that the Son can give glory to You.
V.20 "I pray for these followers, but I am also
praying for all those who will believe in Me
because of their teaching.
V.21 "Father, I pray that they can be one. As
you are in Me and I am in you, I pray that they
can also be one in us.
V.24 "Father, I want these people that You gave
me to be with me where I am. I want them to see
My glory....
V.25 "Father, You are the One who is good.
V.26 "I showed them what You are like, and I will
show them again. Then they will have the same love
that You have for me, and I will live in them."

Dorothy:
Jesus said in John 17:20 "... I pray for those who
believes in Me because of their teaching." That verse
talked about us. Jesus prayed for us almost 2,000 years
ago. How did we believe and accept Jesus as our Savior?
Through the teaching of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John and
the epistles of Paul, Peter, Jude, and James. He prayed
for them to be able to write the Good News of Christ.
John 17 is the whole chapter of Jesus prayers. He prayed
to the Father for His followers and He also prayed for us.

May the Lord bless you today!

Whisper A Prayer

Song: Whisper A Prayer
Whisper a prayer in the morning,
Whisper a prayer at noon
Whisper a prayer in the evening,
'Twill keep your heart in tune.

God answers prayer in the morning,
God answers prayer at noon,
God answers prayer in the evening
He'll keep your heart in tune.

Jesus may come in the morning,
Jesus may come at noon
Jesus may come in the evening
So keep your heart in tune.

I Thessalonians 3:10,12,13 NVC Paul wrote:
"Night and day we continue praying with all our
heart that we may see you again and give you all
the things you need to make your faith strong.
May the Lord make your love grow more and multiply
for each other and for all people so that you will
love others as we love you. May your hearts be made
strong so that you will be holy and without fault
before our God and Father when our Lord Jesus comes
with all his holy ones."

Dorothy: KJV says: "that we may perfect that which
is lacking in your faith. 1 Thess. 3:10. This was
Paul's prayer that what was lacking in their faith,
it will mature and to become strong. To mature means
full growth in trusting God and His Word in time of
trouble. Verse 12 shows that Paul also, prayed that
the Lord will make their love grow more for each other.

Prayer: Dear Lord, we ask You through the blood of Jesus,
and through the name of Jesus, that You would grant that
our faith become stronger in time of trouble. We also ask
that you would grant us the love in our hearts for our
friends and families. May the love of God perfect in us
that we would be able to love one another without using
the words that would hurt others. Remind us to be extra
kind to our neighbor today. Thank you Father for answering
our prayers. In Jesus' Name I pray. Amen!

God's Battle

God will fight your battles
"Everyone gathered here will know the Lord does
not needs swords or spears to save people. The
battle belongs to Him, and He will hand you
over to us." I Samuel 17:47 NCV

This is about David speaking to Goliath,
"You come to me using sword and two spears. But I
come to you in the name of the LORD All-Powerful,
the God of the armies of Israel!" I Sam. 17:45a

Song: When The Battles' Over
When the battles over, we shall wear a crown,
We shall wear a crown, we shall wear a crown.
And when the battles' over, we shall wear a
crown in the new Jerusalem. (Next Chorus)
Wear a crown, wear a crown, wear a bright and
shining crown. And when the battles' over, we
shall wear a crown in the new Jerusalem.

Dorothy:
It is a very old song and I love it when it
comes to this song of battle. Hallelujah! Tax
time is really a battle for many of us. Some
have to pay taxes and others gets refund.
Singing a song helps us to remember that
after the battle, we shall wear a crown.
A crown is for victor who depends on Christ
through the Holy Spirit to help them through
the battle.

Prayer:
Dear Lord, many of us are struggling right now.
Tax time and health time. I ask for the strength
that many of us need today. We ask for wisdom how
to handle the Tax Work and we ask for healing for
our aching bodies. We claimed that "we were healed
by His stripes" in Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.

May God be with you today and may His face shine
on you.

Walking With the King

Song:
Hallelujah! I'm walking with the King,
Praise His holy name! Walking with the King.
Hallelujah! I'm walking with the King!
Every day I'm walking with the King....

Leviticus 26:11,12,13a
KJV: I will set my tabernacle among you: and
my soul shall not abhor you. And I will walk
among you, and will be your God, and ye shall
be my people. I am the LORD your God...

Dorothy:
It was on March 20th, when we were on the road
and suddenly the song, "Walking with King"
came to me and I found the verse that seem to
fit this. Wow! God walk among us. He rides with
us on the road. He like to travel!

March 24, 2008
Leviticus 26:11,12, 13a NCV
Also I will place my Holy Tent among you, and I
will not turn away from you. I will walk with
you and be your God, and you will be my people.
I am the LORD your God...

Dorothy:
After Jesus arose, He stayed around for 40 days.
He took the time to make sure He could prove that
He was alive before Jesus went back home to be with
His Father again. It is found in Acts 1:3 NCV:
"After his death, he showed himself to them and
proved in many ways that he was alive. The apostles
saw Jesus during the FORTY DAYS after he was raised
from the dead, and he spoke to them about the kingdom
of God."
