---------
Chris.
Your daughters shall be carried in their nurses' arms. This is how much God values the daughters as well as the sons. God made them - male and female. We need to see the opposite sex as God's Creation too. We need to do our best to make a good life and future for the children.

(This Second one is A Healing Message)
---------
Chris.
God gives many things. Truly one can say in agreement with His Word that all things come from Him. We can trust God because His Promises stand and are reliable. Sometimes people break their promises for various reasons. God never breaks His Promises.

d)  Hezekiah wept bitterly.
(This Second one showed to me that Hezekiah In Pain Prayed)
--------
Chris.
Even in his bad emotional state Jonah was loved by the Lord. God made that tree to grow miraculously to ease Jonah's discomfort. Sometimes we forget the Grace of God and think that God will only Bless the people who deserve it. How wrong we are!

The Ministry of Comfort belongs to a good listener. The Ministry of Comfort also belongs to the person who spends time with God.

Praise And Worship!

'Praise And Worship.'
Revelation 5:13-14.
a)  John heard:-
1-Every creature in Heaven.

There are certain times that I am truly amazed and fascinated by God's Creation. One of the ways this happens is if I watch a nature documentary on the television. I have seen some amazing live animals as I have travelled in various Nations too. God's Creation is amazing...truly amazing.

How We Were Before Knowing Christ!

-----------
'God Has Given Us This Command.'
1 John 4:21.
a)  God has given us this Command.
b)  Anyone who loves God.
c)  Must also love.
d)  Their brother and sister.
(Through this Second one I know that God Has Given Me This Command)
-----------
Chris.
Before knowing Christ we were without God in this World. When we are in such a condition most of us do not realise the seriousness of it. If we are without God, then we are without Hope. If we are without God, then we are without assurance. Without God our human relationships can get very messed up.

b)  If we love one another.
c)  God lives in us.
d)  His Love is made complete in us.
(This Second one is A Lovely Fact that I enjoy)
-----------
Chris.
When we truly utter the Lord's Words they are Words that He has put into our mouths. In whatever way we are called to utter the Lord's Words we should be prayerfully ready to do so. To truly utter the Lord's Words is one of the greatest privileges that humankind may have.

The Angels' Heavenly Song!

'The Angels' Heavenly Song.'

(This QT reminds me of The Angels' Heavenly Song)
----------
'Simple And Correct.'
1 John 4:11.
a)  Apostle John called these Church people "Dear Friends".
b)  John 3:16. If God so loved us.
c)  We ought to love one another. John 15:12; 1 John 3:11.
(This Second one is Simple And Correct)
----------
Chris.
This is very wonderful. The Angels were circling God's Throne. Heaven is a completely different concept from anything or anywhere on Earth. I am sure that on the Earth everyone would be in front of God's Throne. That would be the correct place. In Heaven everything is dimensionally different. The Angels were circling God's Throne!

We Should Do This Also!

'We Should Do This Also.'
Romans 12:15.
a)  Rejoice.
b)  With those people who Rejoice.

c)  That God has made them spiritually rich.
d)  Those Believers who are rich.
e)  Should take pride in the fact.
f)  That God has shown them that they are spiritually poor.
g)  The rich will pass away like a wild flower in the grass.
(This Second one shows me about Poor And Rich Believers)
----------
Chris.
This is a challenge for all True Believers in these days. We need to Rejoice with people who Rejoice and weep with those people who weep and mourn. This is a Biblically proper response. Sometimes, trying to be 'helpful' to the mourning people by making all kinds of suggestions to them, or criticisms of them. This, actually, is not helpful at all.

The Redeemer Will Come!

'The Redeemer Will Come.'
Isaiah 59:20.
a)  The Redeemer.
b)  Will come to Zion.
c)  To those people in Jacob.

c)  If one part of the body is honoured.
d)  Every part rejoices with it.
(This Second one reveals True Life In The Body Of Christ)
---------
Chris.
When the Lord declares something He really means it. There are many promises in the Word of God that are simply declarations of the Lord and He means every word of them. If we have humble hearts before the Lord, we will surely know what He is saying to us.

The New Song In Heaven!

'The New Song In Heaven.'
Revelation 5:9-10.
a)  This New Song is for the twenty four Elders in Heaven:-
b)  You are worthy to take the scroll.
c)  You are worthy to open its seals.
d)  Because You were slain.
e)  With your blood.
f)  You purchased for God.
g)  Persons from every:-
1-Tribe.
2-Language.
3-People.
4-Nation.
h)  You have made them a Kingdom and Priests.
i)  To serve our God.
j)  They will reign on the Earth.
(This QT teaches me The New Song In Heaven)
---------

Romans 12:12.
a)  We should be joyful in Hope.
b)  Hebrews 10:36. We should be patient and endure in affliction.
c)  Luke 18:1. We should be faithful in Prayer.
(Through this Second one I know that I Should Do This)
---------
Singing is going to be very much a part of our future life in Heaven. When we are given opportunity to sing Praise and Worship Songs to God, we should really make the most of that opportunity. We are going to be singing Praise and Worship eternally in Heaven.

The Psalms Deal With Fear!

'The Psalms Deal With Fear.'
a)  Psalm 3:6; 56:3-4. We need not be afraid of many thousands of people who set themselves against us.

j)  Psalm 118:6. The Lord is on my side, I will not fear what man can do to me.
(This QT gives me clear understanding that The Psalms Deal With Fear)
----
'Persecuted Believers Will Be Rewarded.'
Matthew 5:12.
a)  Rejoice and be glad.
b)  Great is your reward in Heaven.
c)  In the same way.
d)  They persecuted the prophets.
e)  Who were before you.
(This Second one reminds me that Persecuted Believers Will Be Rewarded)
----
Chris.
Why should we fear in times of trouble? If we are really True Believers it means that we are also Disciples of Jesus Christ. There are so many exhortations in the Scripture that tell us not to fear. Fear does not have to be a part of our daily experience. The Lord is on our side.

He Will Come!

'He Will Come.'

a)  From the West.

c)  Surely.
d)  The Lord has done great things.
(Through this Second one I will Rejoice Because The Lord Has Done Great Things)
---------
Chris.
The Lord will come like a pent up flood. This is a very clear description of what it is like when the Lord comes. A pent up flood has awesome power and can completely flatten everything in its path. It can ruin homes and businesses and make people homeless - it has awesome power.

Heavenly Worship!

'Heavenly Worship.'
Revelation 5:8.
a)  Heavenly Worship is led by the Heavenly Beings before God's Throne.
b)  Heavenly Worship is led by the Elders before God's Throne.
c)  The Elders fell down before the Lamb.
d)  The Elders each had a harp.
e)  The Elders each had a golden bowl full of incense.
f)  These bowls are the Prayers of God's People.
(This QT reveals to me a little bit of Heavenly Worship)
--------

b)  Rejoice for ever.

e)  And for Rejoicing.

(This Second one reveals A Beautiful Promise Of God)
--------
Chris.
The Prayers of God's People are not just a religious exercise carried out on the Earth! The Prayers of God's People, if prayed with a pure heart and motive, go up to God in Heaven. The Confidence that God actually hears our Prayers is Biblical.

Peace Between Nations!

'Peace Between Nations.'

c)  The people will beat their swords into ploughshares.

c)  When the wicked people rise to power.
d)  The other people go into hiding.
(Through this Second one I know that The Response Tells It All)
--------
Chris.
Nation will not take up sword against Nation. This is the Word of God and this is the Promise of God. Most of those reading this have experienced war, or the result of war, in their country. I have always lived under the shadow or memory of war in different parts of the World. Even after wars end, they can cause devastation for years. Prayer and the Word of God can bring Healing.

Repay!

'Repay.'
a)  Isaiah 59:18. The Lord will repay His enemies.
b)  Isaiah 65:6; Jeremiah 16:18. The Lord will repay people for sins of idolatry that are not repented of.

c)  A breaking heart.
d)  Makes a sad face.
e)  Heartache.

'The Lamb Took The Scroll.'

a)  The Lord has done it.
b)  This very day.
c)  Let us Rejoice today.
d)  Let us be Glad in Him.
(This Second one teaches me what should be My Response To The Lord's Doing)

(This Second one shows me A Positive Result)
-----------------
Chris.
It is of a very positive advantage to be a Joyful person. Joyful people so often are a source of encouragement to other people. The Bible tells us that the Joy of the Lord is our strength. The Joy that He gives us is surely supreme Joy. We need to consider the question for ourselves. Are we Joyful People?

-----------------
Chris.
The Lord Himself put on His Spiritual Armour. If He Needed and needs to wear that Armour, how much more do we? There is a life to live for every True Believer within this World System. Of course, it is God's Plan that we can live out our lives victoriously for the Glory of God.

b)  Bring Gladness to villages, towns and cities.
c)  Only the Lord's Judgments can do this.

The Spirit of God should not be rebelled against. Why do we even think of rebelling against Him? The Holy Spirit is the One Who deeply ministers to us the things of God. The Holy Spirit is the One Who empowers us to live the life of a True Believer. Let us esteem the Person of and Value the Work of The Spirit of God.

God Saw Them Safely Across!

a)  Because of God's Judgements.
b)  His People Rejoice.
c)  His People are glad.
(This Second one reveals to me some of The Fruit Of God's Judgments)
----------------
Chris.
Their feet touched the water's edge. Nothing happened until their feet touched the water's edge. It was after that the people of God could go over. This encourages us to have an active Faith. They did not just stand there and Pray, their feet touched the water's edge.

There Was No Man!

'There Was No Man.'
Isaiah 59:16.
a)  Isaiah 41:28. The Lord saw that there was no one.
b)  Ezekiel 22:30. The Lord was appalled that there was no one to intervene.

b)  Who are my enemies without cause.
c)  Who hate me without reason.
d)  Maliciously wink their eye.
(Through this Second one I Pray: Lord, Do Not Let Them)
---------------
Chris.
The Lord's Own Righteousness sustained Him. The Lord is so Powerful and so Merciful. We are weak, even when we think that we are at our strongest. We need other sources of sustenance. There is no one who can deny this fact. This is another reason why we can trust the Lord fully.

He Can Open The Scroll!

'He Can Open The Scroll.'

People who look for applause and reward are usually insecure and needing affirmation. The greater problem is that there may well be deep needs in their lives that come from a rejection experience. We should not reject these people but we should reach out to them with the Love and Truth of God.
