“Something got a hold of me…..Hallelujah. When I heard the gospel, at the corner of
heart break ridge, and new hope road.”
These are some of the
words, to a song that I heard, on the radio. I have never heard it before. It’s
kind of a country themed gospel song, but it has a kick to it. I really like a
kick, added in on my worship music.
Don’t you? I really don’t
understand, the way that, the Church of Christ plays no music. I am actually
looking forward, to the day in Heaven that, Jesus burns the ivory keys off
whatever kind of piano that, there is in Heaven!!
Have you ever considered,
the musical instrument in Heaven, with Jesus shredding on every one of
them? I have loved music for all of my
life. The music that I mostly enjoy now is some kind that edifies, and gives
praise and honor, to my Lord. Fortunately I am the one that gauges what I feel
does that, and some of what I love, there is a possibility that, you might not
care for.
Ephesians 3:20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly
above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,
For you who don’t think,
as deeply as I do about Heavenly issues, I want to give a couple scriptures to
back up my theory. The first one is based on our actions on the earth. I love
the way this verse is worded. Unto him, that is able; that sounds like my
Jesus. To do exceedingly abundantly
above……That is definitely my Jesus.
Oops…. I left out a word. Not just any word, but a main action
word. To do. Able to do, above all, that we can ask or
think!!
1Corinthians 2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen,
nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God
hath prepared for them that love him.
There are few people that
I let know that I write this blog. The reason being I don’t want them to praise
me, or correct me. This is how I honor my Jesus, and there is nothing going to
rock my boat. One of the ones that knows what I do, I shared some video, of
bluegrass gospel that, I had found. To my surprise he loved it. Its twin
sisters and their brother, there is nothing fancy about them, except the way
that they play. They call themselves, “The purple hulls.” Check them out on You Tube.
I have got so far off
tract, with what I wanted to say, about this song that, I have heard today. The
reason that, I really grabbed a hold, to this song is the fact that, I can
relate to it. There was a time in my life that, something did get a hold on me.
Praise the sweet name of Jesus, it demanded a Hallelujah!! I love the address that this song gives also,
because I still can remember standing right there in my life. The corner of
heart break ridge, and new hope road!!
Can anybody relate to
being there, anytime in your lives? I have been there more, than once in my
life. I am just being honest with you. Back in my wild days I had received the
promise that, if I changed my ways, and done what they said that, my life would
be different. This was a man made promise, and had nothing to do with Jesus. I
failed every time that I attempted to grab a hold of my boot straps, and fly
right.
I got to thinking that I
must be different than most people, because they seemed to have the ability to
do the right things. I don’t think that I really had a track record, of making
the right choices. Now I know that, I was normal, because I was feeding my
flesh, and it was all about me. I wanted the quick fix, in every situation, and
every long term decision that, I made my lack of patience would kill it.
Then Jesus……..Should I
stop there? Maybe I should continue
in telling you then Jesus rocked my world, and is in the process, of flipping
every part, of my life back right-side up. I didn’t even know that, it was
flipped upside-down. Everything is getting better now that, I have lost the
fight in me to give much resistance. I did go through two years, of what I
deemed as pure hell, to get here. Everything is not a bowl of cherries now, but
the rewards are out of this world.
Do you realize that, God
comes and lives inside, of your body? He is right there with you; leading,
guiding, and correcting you as you go. We are never alone once we accept the
shed blood of Jesus, and the work of the cross. Just think about that for a
minute. God is living on the inside of us, and He is leading us into battle
with Satan. This might just blow your mind, but He has special armor for us to
wear. The armor is His, and if we will put it on we are guaranteed victory
against our adversary. (Ephesians 6:10-18)
Do you really want to know
something that will rattle the cobwebs in your mind? We win!!
No matter what we go through, and death has no restraint on us. Jesus
conquered all these things, on resurrection morning; death, hell, and the
grave. He has fully put our sin to death, thus restoring us back to the Father.
The great thing is once we really believe on Jesus, and God comes to live on
the inside of us, in the form of Holy Spirit, He places a seal on us.
Ephesians 1:13-14 In whom ye also trusted, after that
ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after
that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14 Which is the
earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession,
unto the praise of his glory.
Ain’t Jesus
Awesome? He is truly the gift that
keeps on giving!!
….Much Love
