Came to pass/ This Too Shall Pass.

And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:

I wonder is that how they got this quote

Well done, good and faithful servant!' Matthew 25:23 NIV

Play your part

'Well done, good and faithful servant!' Matthew 25:23 NIV

If you study famous musicians, you'll often find that they learned their craft by playing in a band or orchestra. That's because certain skills - learning to blend with other instruments, keeping tempo, learning to play louder or softer, following the conductor's lead - can only be learned by playing with others. And what's true of a band or orchestra is even truer of a community of believers.

Jesus illustrated this in his parable of the talents (see Matthew 25:14-30). One man was given five talents and ended up with ten. Another man was given two talents and ended up with four. A third man was given one talent, and he buried it. In a sense, Jesus was talking about people playing their parts and how important that is to God's kingdom. Not everyone plays the same instrument, and not everyone has the same part. Some instruments are louder than others, and some parts are bigger than others. It's not how much you have that matters to Jesus; it's what you do with what you have that matters to him.

There are no insignificant talents in God's kingdom. Our talents may differ in number, but they all come from the same source. All Jesus wants you to do is play your part. He does not expect the same results, but he does expect the same effort. He never compares you with anyone else. He compares you only with you. He doesn't look at what you have; he looks at what you do with what you have. So just play your part

Be Your Own Beautiful Dawna De Silva DVD.

I was watching  a DVD called What if you walked Free by Dawna De Silva and I recorded this part on my mobile Recording because it stood out for me because of the pen I found early......

Obedience To God..Joshua 1:7-9

James 2:10 states, "For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it" (NIV). This verse emphasizes that God's law is a unified standard; breaking one commandment violates the entire law, making selective obedience impossible and highlighting the need for mercy. 

Key Interpretations and Context:

The Chain Principle: James compares the law to a chain. Breaking one link, regardless of how many others remain intact, breaks the entire chain.

Context of Favoritism: In the preceding verses (James 2:1-9), James condemns showing partiality or favoritism, which he argues is a breach of the "royal law" to love one's neighbor.

Not All Sins are Equal: While James 2:10 asserts that all sin makes one a transgressor, it does not mean all sins have equal severity in consequence, as noted by.

The Purpose: The verse is designed to show that no one can achieve righteousness through perfect obedience, highlighting the necessity of faith in Jesus Christ and reliance on God's mercy.

Interpretation Misconception: It does not mean that because perfection is unattainable, all efforts to follow God's commands are useless. Instead, it highlights the need for repentance when failing at any point. 

Related Verses:

James 2:11: Clarifies that breaking one command (e.g., adultery) makes one a lawbreaker even if they keep another (e.g., murder).

Romans 3:23: States that "all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God," supporting the need for grace. 

This passage underlines the strict requirement of the Law and directs the reader to the "law of liberty" which is found in God's grace and mercy. 

Mercy : is not getting what you do deserve.

Grace: is getting what you dont deserve.

Then another scripture stood out from todays reading was Joshua 1:7. I was watch a series called the House Of David and Joshua 1 :9 was mentioned . I even looked up a photo of it for my smart watch 

Joshua 1:7-9 NLT

[7] Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the instructions Moses gave you. Do not deviate from them, turning either to the right or to the left. Then you will be successful in everything you do. [8] Study this Book of Instruction continually. Meditate on it day and night so you will be sure to obey everything written in it. Only then will you prosper and succeed in all you do. [9] This is my command—be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go."

Fruit Of The Spirit

Ann,

“You have felt the pain of pruning. I have removed people, places, and mindsets that have been stumbling blocks to your spiritual growth. For every branch I have pruned becomes even more fruitful,” says the Spirit of the Lord.

“I am refining you to bring you clarity, and to reveal who you really trust and follow. The pain of pruning will not be wasted. It has produced a deeper dependence on Me, increased your trust, and strengthened your faith in Me. 

You have desired a wider reach, a reach that comes from the maturity of the branch. To walk in righteous boldness, to speak with purity, truth and power. Carrying the weight of My glory cannot be done by branches that aren't mature. Show now the fruit that comes from remaining in Me and I in you.”

Activation: Ask the Lord to show you what you look like as His branch in the spirit. Ask Him what fruit you are producing well. Ask the Lord to show you if there are any fruit not growing and if so, why. Allow space for the Lord to show you what needs to be cut off or pruned back to allow for spiritual maturity. 

John 15:2 (NIV) “He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful.”
