31 DEC 10 Congrats on being faithful in your reading the 365 Bible this year.
Please note the names of GOD. Your concept of The LORD our Lord hopefully is centered on God.


Malachi declares many promises for the believer who is faithful. All of us need to look and consider the prerequisites to be blessed.

The last part of The Book of The Revelation of Jesus Christ ought to send chills up and down your spine. Two rules: Be right then Do right. Love and respect, Selah. we will start AGAIN tomorrow to read to know Him. Be true to the end. luvupj

30 Dec 10 and getting ready for Sunday.Hope you have read and enjoyed your 365 Bible this year. Please plan on starting Fresh and New on 1 Jan 2011 and purpose in your heart, by GOD's favor, to read until the rapture.

Malachi will challenge us to consider our concept of GOD. Look for the promises given because we are faithful. Look and consider how faithful The LORD has been to His people. Surely we transition from the Old to the New Testament with God's personality being exposed and His traits showing us the way to be and do.

All men, husbands and sons ought to pay attention to what God says about women as recorded in the proverbs.If you are single this description of the Godly wife should be your guide for seeking a wife so that she will be a gift to you from the Lord, then you may say, What GOD has joined together...

Pray for the new class that starts Sunday 2 Jan 11. Luvupj Selah

27 Dec 10 -- ** >> WOW! What a great day we had with the kids at Johnson East.The LORD has blessed us beyond measure and still His mercy endures for ever and is fresh and new every day.I hope all of you started Christmas Day with The Lord in His Word and then enjoyed His presence throughout the giving and receiving of gifts.Can we all say we got more than we expected?Take time to be grateful.

Spend time today as you read to know Him in Psalm 146. We often encourage you to note those verses that give you a "snap shot" of GOD. This psalm has many pics of what He is, does, preserves and will be so much as it becomes like a giant mural that displays the handiwork of GOD and focuses on Him, a self portrait.

Please pray for the coming New Year and the 365 class. There are many new people that indicated an interest to start a new life style of reading their Bible to know him. There is a larger number that signed up than I expected so arranging the class room so that eye contact and every one facing the teacher and will still promote interchange is difficult.Pray. Praise. Plead. And believe The Lord for all that we expect Him to be and do. Selah. lolpj

24 Dec 10 Merry Christmas and happy Holy Days to all of you that know Jesus as your Saviour and GOD as your heavenly Father. There are many who are not yet saved. Pray for The Lord of the harvest to cause you to have His burden for the world.

As you read to know GOD, LORD, God, and Lord and to have His mind be amazed as to His names today, particularly, The BRANCH.

Be awed by the four creatures God uses to teach truth in the proverbs. Read and obey.
I want to love you as Christ loved and loves me. We get to know HIM!!! Selah. pj

CELEBRATE THE BIRTH OF JESUS CHRIST.

23 Dec 10 Are you ready for the Holy Days?Keep on reading and praying for unction. We read to know Him and He shows us His ways and makes His mercy fresh and new each morning. Have you ever considered how much mercy you use and how much is never experienced? What about favor?

Don't be overcome by the types and figures in the reading today.We can become sidetracked by/when watching His and miss Him.Seek to keep your concept of GOD, God, god, LORD, Lord and lord aligned with the Scriptures.

Pray for the new class that they will seek GOD diligently to know Him. luv pj

20 Dec 10 Try to imagine what you will be doing a year from now. We are getting ready for the 2011 class for the 365 KJV Bible,starting 2 Jan 11.I plan to use the reading of today as the starting point for the year. Hopefully by now your concept of God has become more intense and bible centered. We are near the end of the prophecies of the first and last coming of Jesus to the earth.Maranatha should be on your mind and this season is causing your senses to be expecting Jesus Christ in the clouds at any moment.Even so.........come quickly!

These minor prophets are nailing the lid down for showing to us the traits,attributes and nature of our GOD and Saviour The Lord Jesus Christ. Try and find yourself in the reading of Haggai. He is an old man and for these 70 years he has dreamed of being in the city and at the temple. Now he sees how the young people are more concerned for their own than that pertaining to GOD.How about today?

I find it fascinating that we get to read today and see events that cover 3000 years. We get to read about GOD and to know how much He cared for those in Egypt, all the way to the setting up in the promised land, through all the kings of Israel and Judah, into their captivity and return. Also we get to see almost a 1000 years later a holy man being told by GOD how the end would be for the world as we know it today.GOD has made all this very plain. He loves His creation and His people!Now read John 3:16 ..so much..!

Allow the Holy Spirit to minister to your soul/inner man through this psalm and submit yourself to His divine inspection. Then pray for The Almighty GOD to know you so that you might know Him. Selah. Pray as we prepare for the new class. luv pj

If you provoked and challenged by this blog,tell someone all you know about GOD.

17 Dec 10 Yea, it is Friday and Sunday is coming.Hope you are reading, believing, praying and seeing GOD in action in and around your life.Pray for the class that will start 2 Jan that the students will be committed to The Lord first, then to one another, being faithful as they read and grow in Grace and Knowledge of The LORD!

The books of the Minor Prophets are coming daily.If you have a Halley's handbook look and link Jonah with Nahum.Jonah was about 150 years before Nahum and preached repentance. GOD's justice may appear to be slow, but IT is sure.Judgment is coming! Check your concept of GOD. Hebrews 9:27 will set things in order. The key word for me this year is "consequence".

Practice praying back the psalms. Pray for God to cause you to see Him as you see circumstances. Don't be fearful of what you read in The Revelation of Jesus Christ for we(the Saved) will be with Him when this happens.

We have used the proverbs of today for 33 years as the "checkbook" verse. Write out these verses on a post it note and read it as you write your checks. Selah. luvpj

14 Dec 10 a great Tuesday.During the next busy days take time to be thankful.One thing that I am grateful for is that I was not living in the days of Jonah.We that live in America need to appreciate what we have in our freedom.I am glad to be a saved child of GOD and on my way to heaven.My eyes,ears, hands and feet are not what they used to be, but I still have them.Let us take time each day to be Holy.

As you read these books written by the minor prophets, take time to look at the map of the promise land and become familiar with the time,space and distance they travelled to serve God.Use II Tim 3:16,17 as a sounding board to cause your faith to be refreshed. The concept of GOD you live by should be becoming more correct daily.

Seek GOD's leadership for your relationship>fellowship with the people you live with and serve.The proverbs demonstrate the option each person has and often reports the "consequence" of action or NO action.NO PERSON can be neutral at any time.Selah
Are you willing to hear God speak?Let us be careful and attentive to what we see, touch, read, hear and speak.As sons we are co-laborers with God. Be-Do RIGHT. luvpj

13 Dec 10 Yea for a clear cold day to observe some of the handiwork of GOD. Hope you have been reading to know GOD. If you do not have a good old(1990-2000)fashion dictionary, a Strong's concordance and a bible commentary, get them for yourself for a Christmas gift.Look up words after your reading and see what they mean.I hope to alert you this coming year to words in the bible that are often misused in our daily conversation or perhaps not used because we are not sure of their application. We can expand our vocabulary with good and true words and sayings.

The "minor" prophets are called this because of the size/volume of their words, not because they have less value/importance.

I've learned this year a good truth for me in that in reading The Book of Revelation allows me to read/hear what Jesus was saying about himself, a self portrait, while he was telling John what to write to the seven churches.We get to read to know HIM!

Be kind to someone today. Be like the Samaritan, be a good one.Selah love pj

PS: We will start Sunday 2 Jan the 365 class,at Victory Baptist Church,meeting @9:45 AM in the Family Life Center.Visitors,members and guest will be welcomed.read2know
