And away we go for today. There is a lot of territory to cover, so let’s get started. Hebrews 4:15-16: For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
We were blessed to have Bruce Allen in our home a couple of weeks ago. He came to spend a few days "just to take a break" from his busy traveling schedule.
We could very well run long again today, but I need to connect all of the dots for you as we wrap up this discussion on the cup, so let’s get started. Let me cover some of the same ground that I did last week in order for you to see the connection.
It’s hard for me to believe that I’ve been writing on this 23rd Psalm adventure for a solid year by now. And that doesn’t count a couple of short breaks we’ve taken just to take a breather. This truly has become a revelation as much for me as it has for those of you who’ve stayed with it during this time. I sit down to write and things just begin to flow in my spirit. Sometimes it’s hard to simply stop. I just keep writing, and ultimately have to break it up into multiple Coffee Breaks in order to keep things down to a readable limit, practically speaking.
Let’s finish where we left off last week in talking about Jesus’ life as an example of the cup running over, and then explore the covenant that comes with the cup as it relates to what Jesus has done on our behalf and what He has made available to us.
We have a lot of ground to cover today, and I need to share with you my own personal deliverance from one of these spirits of fear, so let’s get right to it.
By now you’ve all gotten the understanding that the 23rd Psalm is anything but some trite Scripture to read to console folks at some funeral. This is a living Word from Holy Spirit!
Good Morning once again! We’ve spent a fair amount of time talking about the purpose of the “still waters,” the objective of Holy Spirit in pouring Himself into us, the release of our spirit and intellect so that we allow Him to flow through us – and especially our tongue!
Have you ever considered "Pentecost?" Do you realize what this represents? Pentecost -- representing 50 days -- began with Moses receiving the Word of the Lord on Mount Sinai.
Last week's Coffee Break kind of scratched the surface in dealing with the four Hebrew letters that make up the name, the onoma, the shém, the very character and nature of the Lord God.
