PTL "God is Good" all the time! Praise Jesus our Lord and Savior Bless You all!
God is love, got divorced, lost everything due to my own sins, but begged God to throw the mountains in sea.....trusting in the compassion of Father God, through the words of Jesus. I repented, but at 53 years, these mountains seem so large! I really want to be obedient. Tim: Look after the needs of my family, it weighs heavy on my heart. Richness I do not want, committing sin, because of my previous sins I really do not want......just an opportunity where God can Glorify Himself. Live out my Love of God with obdedience, please pray with me!
Hallelujah!
Praise His Name!! I am rejoicing with you sir

My son passed on May 26, 2022 from a car wreck 2 days before his 19th birthday. I opened his funeral with this song because even in my worst pain I know God is good, He is faithful, and He is running after me not just me but also my son that He took with Him. Keep my eyes on You, Lord and let me see my son again soon.
I'm so sorry for your loss...yes, we can only keep our eyes on the Lord! hugs!
@@Nancydhu Amen 🙏
Thank you JESUS 🛐
May God bless you all the days of your life. 🎉
I just want you to know that, when someone dies near his birthday it is a blessing and it is because he has fulfilled his mission on earth, I hope the Lord gives you understanding to know that his death was not in vain, it had to happen, tells you a person who saw the death of her mother at 11 years old and I had that understanding 5 years ago, but I suffered a lot and I was angry for several years and now I thank God for taking her.
amen...I pray we all are reunited with friends and loved ones...and ancestors we have yet to meet!!!! Eternity
sounds so WONDERFUL, with our Lord and Savior!!!!
So sorry, may ADONAI GOD comfort u...
I will leave this comment here so that I will be reminded of this great song everytime someone likes this comment.
Goody Glory what a loving Lamb of the world so perfect sacrifice❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ ❤❤❤❤
After I received Jesus as my Lord and Savior I came across this sing and the words made me wept uncontrollable. Today I stand in awe of His miracles in my life and praise Him who saved me. Bless the Lord o my soul I sing with praises to our one and only King.
The living God is always with you. But the Holy Spirit must come in you to be saved. Our body is the church where the Holy Spirit will live. We must keep Jesus' commandments and keep our hearts clean. Please save my soul until Jesus answers with His Word keep on praying 🙏✝️
When I was tired, I cried and prayed to be saved. Jesus met me and said, "I'm going to save you." Since then, I have stopped drinking and my family has changed. My family got out of depression and became energetic and harmonious. The disease is healed.
Jesus met me and said, "This is your father. It's not your fault! You did a great job holding it in. You're back where you belong. Thanks for finding me. Trust me and follow me. Trust me completely so you can live. Love Jesus with all your heart." You can meet Jesus too! Jesus is waiting for you to come. Jesus is not a religion, he is God. Jesus is infinite love. amen🙏✝️💕💕💕
Amen, praise God - the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit!!! 🙏💙❤️💛🙌
Jesus' love is salvation.
The Holy Spirit said to tell you,
"Do not make me (Jesus) lonely, there are many who attend church, but no one finds me wholeheartedly. There is no salvation without the Lord. Church service without the Holy Spirit is meaningless. It is for your own sake. Always be careful of pride and arrogance. Only when you repent wholeheartedly and your heart is clean will the Holy Spirit come and be saved. The moment when you pray is a happy time for me. I'm listening to your prayers. but there is an order in your work. Your heart is important. You must dwell in me first. Find me with all your heart and love me. How can I like my son when he treats his father poorly? I feel everything, too."
amen✝️🙏😍
Let us boast in Him, Jesus Christ, Son of God, Holy One to set us free.
I demand, No More War.
No more blood has to be spilled, He has washed us clean with His Holy blood
Please read the Bible: Matthew 24:6-14. Jesus never said we will have a nice and lovely life. They will be war because we are all sinful and in need of the Lord.
I love you Jesus! If you ask me to do anything for you I will! You made me and saved me even though I don't deserve it. Thank you so much my Lord Jesus Christ!!
We worship You Lord Jesus. You and You alone! from Australia!
Because your love the Lord is better than life, my lips will glorify You.I will praise You as long as I live,and in your name I lift up my hand and my heart singing praise.
All glory belongs to Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. One God Amen 🙏 ❤
The Lamb of God, Our Victory!
All glory belongs to Father, Son and Holy Spirit ❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🥰 Glory to God ❤❤❤ Slavă Tatălui și Fiului și Sfântului Duh ❤❤❤
I pray Father God all the storms in my daughter’s life are removed in your mighty name Jesus Christ. Amen
We pray that our storms leas us to draw more closely to our Savior.

This is amazing! Glory indeed belongs to our Lord. I would dearly love to see acoustic versions in the fulness of time. As a neurodiverse person, I am very sensitive to noise and struggle with rock guitars and drums. The music and words are so great though.
Q Yashua the God who takes a human being from sinner to saved just keeps giving and giving And all that he does qwi never be remembered
The human body is a miracle we take it for a pleasurable way to get around but a miracle is the way we’re put together thank you for the miracle of life 😅
Best things come from above, be blessed.
This album has richly blessed and edified me since I initially came across the live stream, weeks ago.
Thank you, Brother Matt Redman and team, for giving us more songs for the secret place.

Amen to our God of Liberty

Amen ! Praise Be to Jesus Christ my saviour!
Amen to the Lamb( Jesus😊1st❤ the Holy Lamb of God) of God(😊100%❤). It reminds me John 1:29
"29 The next day he( John the Baptist😊❤) saw Jesus( our Lord😊1st❤) coming toward him, and said, " Behold😊❤, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world! "( John 1:29 ESV Study Bible. That's Jesus our savior( Jesus😊1st❤ ) the Lamb( Jesus😊1st❤) of God😊100%❤) in Christ😊❤. Praise to the Lord( Jesus😊1st❤) and thank you Matt😊❤ for sharing our savior ( Jesus😊1st❤) or my Lord( Jesus😊1st❤) too Jesus😊1st❤ the Lamb of God. Amen.❤
Matthew 22:1-14(The Parable of the wedding Feast❤)
"22 And again Jesus (😊1st❤) spoke to them in parables, saying,
2 " The Kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who gave a wedding feast for his son,
3 and sent his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding feast, but they would not come.
4 Again he sent others servants, saying,
" Tell those who are invited, " See, I have prepared my dinner, my oxen and my fat calves have been slaughtered and everything is ready. Come to the wedding feast."
5 But they paid no attention and went off,
one to his farm,
another to his business,
6 while the rest seized his servants, treated them shamefully, and killed them.
7 The king was angry, and he sent his troops and destroyed those murderers and burned their city.
8 Then he said to his servants,
"The wedding feast is ready, but those invited were not worthy.
9
Go therefore to the main roads and invite to the wedding feast as many as you find.
10 And those servants went out into the roads and gathered all whom they found, both bad and good. So the wedding hall has filled with guests.
11 But the king came in to look at the guests, he saw there a man who had no wedding garment.
12 And he said to him,
" Friend, how did you get in here without a wedding garment?
And he was speechless.
13 Then the king said to the attendants, bind him hand and foot and cast him into the outer darkness. In that place there will weeping and gnashing of teeth.
14 For many are called,
but a few are chosen." "( Matthew 22:1-14ESV Study Bible)
1 Peter 2:9
" 9 But you are
a chosen race😊❤,
a royal pristhood😊❤,
a holy nation😊❤,
a people😊❤ for his😊❤ own possession😊❤,
that you may😊❤
proclaim( "proclaim" or declare or proclaim😊❤
the excellencies😊❤ of him😊❤ who(😊100%❤)
called you( "you" or us today too in Christ
😊❤
😊❤
😊❤😊❤
😊❤
😊❤
😊❤)
out of darkeness into his😊❤ marvelous😊❤ light😊❤."( 1 Peter 2:9 ESV Study Bible)
Speaking of light, Jesus our Lord(Jesus😊1st❤)
and our savior(Jesus😊1st❤) said he(Jesus😊1st❤) is the light of the world. Jesus said and the Bible said, in
John 8:12( under the context of I Am the Light of the world( John 8:12-30( I Am the Light of the world) the Bible said in
John 8:12
"12 Again Jesus(😊1st❤) spoke😊❤
to them❤,
saying,
" I am the light of the world. Whoever( " whoever" means anyone😊❤) follows 😊❤ me😊❤ will not walk in darkness, but 😊❤
will have 😊❤
the light😊❤ of life😊❤."( John 8:12 ESV Study Bible. Amen to what Jesus said in John 8:12 and what our Lord, Jesus😊1st ❤ said in John 8:12b ESV Study Bible)
Genesis 34:18-24
" 18 Their( Jacob's sons) words please Hamor and Hamor's son Shechem.
19 And the young man did not delay to do the thing , because he delighted in Jacob's( Israel❤'s) daughter.
Now he was the most honored of all his father's house.
20 So Hamor( why does his father go through this with his son( shechem) for a single woman? Didn't look like good ending later. Lesson learn for us in Do not fight over a woman and no lust for other woman either. In Jesus'name, i pray( John 13:34 and continue to be holy in Christ :) and no greed in Christ too :) ) Amen. ) and his son Shechem came to the gate of their city and spoke to the men of their city, saying,
21 " These men are at peace with us; let them dwell in the land and trade in it, for behold, the land is large enough for them. Let us take their daughters as wives, and let us give them our daughters.
22 only on this condition will the men agree to dwell with us to become one peoeple- when every male among us is circumcised."( cut a man's private part's foreskin= circumcised according to Jewish tradition a boy is circumised on the 8th days. Jesus(😊1st❤) was a Jew too and Jesus did that to followed custum at His time in Christ and today in many hospital many babies also doing that too :) )
"23
Will not their livestock, their property and all their beasts be ours? Only let us agree with them, and they will dwell with us."
24 And all who went out of the gate of his city listened to Hamor and his son Shechem, and every male( cuting of Ding Dong's foreskin, i meant a male's private part's foreskin), all who went out of the gate of his city."( Genesis 34:18-24 ESV Study Bible and all parenethesis parts meant to motivate to learn God's words in Christ with symbol of love in Christ Jesus(😊1st❤) too in and for Christ. A little of humor here and there to help learning in more fun in God's words now tied back to Jesus(😊1st❤) in the New Testament in Christ, the Bible said under the context of Luke 2:1-7( The birth of Jesus Christ( Jesus(😊1st❤)); Luke 2:8-21( The Shepherds
(😊❤'s) and the angels(😊❤'s)
)
, in Luke 2:21
" And at the end of the eight days, when he ( Jesus(😊1st❤) our savior in Christ😊❤) was circumcised, he( Jesus😊1st❤) was called Jesus(😊1st❤), the name given by the angel( " angel"=Gabriel from God(😊100%❤) from Luke 1:31 ) before he was conceived in the womb."( Luke 2:21 ESV Study Bible).
Do you want to know what Luke 1:31 said again too?
Luke 1:31
" And behold(😊❤)
, you( Mary😊❤) will conceive in your womb and bear a son( Jesus😊1st❤ our savior in Christ), and you shall call his name Jesus(😊1st❤)."( Luke 1:31 ESV Study Bible)
Keep listening in Christ
Luke 1:32-33
"32 He(Jesus😊1st❤) will be great(😊1st❤) and will be called the Son (Jesus😊1st❤) of the Most High. And the Lord God(😊100%❤) will give the throne of his father David(😊❤), and he(Jesus😊1st❤) will reign over the house of Jacob forever(❤), and of his( Jesus') kingdom((😊❤) there will be no end." "( Luke 1:32-33 ESV Study Bible. Amen.) Pro- Jesus(😊1st❤) in Christ.
2 Peter 3:8-9
"8 But do not overlook this fact😊❤, beloved😊❤, that with Lord( Jesus😊1st❤) one day is a thousand years
( 1 day= 1000 years)
and a thousand( 1000 ) years as one day( 1000 years = 1 day ).
9 The Lord( Jesus😊1st❤ to me in Christ too) is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient😊❤ toward you😊❤, not wishing that any should perish( died twice, physically and spiritual death too without trusting in Jesus😊1st❤, the Son of the living God or Jesus is the Christ to me too in Christ),
but that
all (❤'s)
should reach repentance."( the word " repentance " means to me in Christ turn away from sins( wrong doing that is against the Bible , we in Christ call them sins) and turn back to God of the Bible , and not attempt to bully me too. Thank you. ) "( 2 Peter 3:8-9 ESV Study Bible. Some outside last night attempted to bully me, again I pray to God and they ran again. In Jesus'name, i pray( 2 Peter 3:8-9 ) Amen.
I am ready to go home in Christ, are you ready to go home too in Christ Jesus😊1st❤
too
?
Matthew 28:19-20😊❤
Matthew 22:15-22(Paying Taxes to Caesar)
"15 Then the pharisees went and plotted how to entangled him in his words.
16 And they their disciples to him, and along with the Herodians, saying, " Teacher, we know that you are true and teach the way of God truthfully, and you do not care what anyone's opinion, for you do not swayed by appearances.
17 Tell us, then, what you think. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?"
18 But Jesus(😊
1st❤) aware of their malice, said, " Why put me to the test, you hypocrites?
19 Show me the coin for the tax." And they brought him a denarius.( a word-study Later on " denarius" beside knowning a Roman coin day's wage back at Jesus' time. Now in Matthew 22:29, ( any coin collectors out there? In the past, i used to buy special but cheap- coins or inexpensive coins from different places I do not go there anymore, so what my ESV Study Bible, said make sense for i used to collected different currency of American - coins, other coins as one my hobbies in the past and American old stamps too which i purchased by God's grace His given job to me on my own salary paid in Christ in the past and gave many away to those stamps to bankers who like to collect old- stamps around the world but mainly American old stamps and some are bilingual coins ( again past that no longer collecting them, just for fun and learning new things from coin and supporting one the coins- shop from that old man. It is rare for him that old but selling different coins around the world. Compassion for him and helping an old man who speak different languages i don't know him at all), i gave away most my collected stamps to others for free too so in Matthew 22:19b on the word " Denarius
" According to my ESV Study Bible said, " On One side of the silver Denarius, was a profile of Tiberius Caesar, with the Latin inscription " Tiberius Caesar, son of the divine Augustus" around the coin's perimeter. On the opposite side was a picture of the Roman goddness of peace, pax, with the Latin inscripture " High Priest" " ( quoted from my on hand ESV Study Bible with that Romans silver Denarius" coin knowledge in mind in Christ and go to the next verse in Matthew 22:20-22
"20 And Jesus(😊
1st❤) to them" Who likeness and inscription is this? "
21 They said, " Caesar's."
Then he(Jesus😊1st❤)
said to them,
Therefore rendered to Caesar the things that are Caesar's and to God the things that are God's."
22 When they heard it, they marveled. And they left him and went away." ( Matthew 22:15-22 ESV Study Bible)
Again follow what Jesus said. When they replied, " Caesar's "
Or
From Zondervan NIV Study Bible
" 21 " Caesar's, " they replied. Then he said to them, " Give to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God(😊
100%❤) what is God's . " " ( Matthew 22:21 Zondervan NIV Study Bible)
It will be nice have Sunday School teachers to get a denarius coin in person to teach younger ones( children) in Christ on the lesson on Matthew 22:15-22(paying Taxes to Caesar) and in near where I live now there only a few coin shops and that old man speak both English/ Cantonese and His children I also gave his grandchilren healthy candies when I got permission from their grandparents / the children' parents' permission first, their children are Asian- American and it 's good to kind to people whether people see you or not, but I think God sees us that all it matters in Christ. Why do we buys coins and stamps and give it others for free. The smiles from others' face like this(😊❤) is the best return without string attached at all. We in Christ are attached to unreserve- God and trust in Jesus(😊1st❤) our Lord and our savior in Christ for Jesus(😊1st❤) bind followers of Christ and Christians together in Christ and Ephesians 4:1-16( Unity in the body of Christ(Jesus😊1st❤) love it in Christ and we are
binded by Jesus(😊1st❤) connect us together and connect us to God who enable us to give to others beyond our own understanding without reserve and also be smart in loving in Christ too. Ephesians 2:8(😊❤). God gave us His Son ( Jesus😊1st❤)and Jesus paid in full on the cross and came back to give us his( Jesus' ) resurrection of hope in Jesus(😊1st❤) for Jesus(😊1st❤)
gave us his life so what can we not also give to others today? At the same set good boundaries in Christ and also give to others ( we might not know well) Seen or unseen in Christ.
Anyways,
What do you think using a denarius coin as one of the props in helping in teaching in Christ to children in Matthew 22:15-22( Paying taxes to Caesar) like Jesus said, "... Give to Caesar what is Caesar's , and to God what is God's." "( Matthew 22:21b Zondervan NIV Study Bible) if can't get real one then try a legal replica coin for teaching and learning purposes. Just when Jesus washed His disciples ' feet we used to use a bucket and some dry towel( s) too in Christ
This meant for those in Christ. Thank God for God's words❤😊 in Christ😊❤. May Jesus ' love❤ be to all in all and whoever trusts in him( Jesus😊1st❤) too. In Jesus'name, i pray(John 14:6😊❤). Amen.
God 😊100%❤always outgive me in Christ ❤ too in Christ😊❤.
Genesis 34:25-31
"25 On the third day, when they were sore, two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi,
" Dinah's brothers, took their sword and came against the city while it felt secure and killed all the males.
26 They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with the sword and took Dinah out Shechem's house and went away.
27 The sons of Jacob came upon the slain and plundered the city, because they had defiled their sister.
28 They took their flocks and their herds, as their donkeys, and whatever was in the city and in the field.
29 All their wealth, all their little ones and their wives, all that was in the houses, they captured and plundered.
30 Then Jacob(❤)
said to Simeon and Levi,
" You have brought trouble on me by making me stink to the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites and the Perizzites. My numbers are few, and if they gather themselves against me and attack me, I shall be destroyed, both I and my household."
31 But they said, " Should he treat our sister like a prostitute? " "( Genesis 34:25-31 ESV Study Bible. That is that in Christ)
Speaking of of the word, " Prostitute? "
It reminds me about what Jesus said in
Matthew
21:31
Under the parable of the two sons in Matthew 21:28-32( The Parable of the two sons)
Matthew 21:31
"31 Which of the two did the will of his father? " They said, " The first," Jesus(😊
1st❤)
said to them, " Truly(😊
❤), I say to you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes go into the kingdom (😊❤) of God(😊
100%❤) before you."( Matthew 21:31 ESV Study Bible)
Keep listening or reading in Christ
Matthew 21:32
"32 For John(John the Baptist😊❤
)came to you in the way of rightousness(😊❤), and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and the prostitutes believes him(😊
❤)
. And even when you saw it, you did not afterward change your minds and believe him."( Matthew 21:32 ESV Study Bible)
Yahuah bless you and keep you in Yahusha Messiah.

A true understanding of what Jesus is all about:
God created mankind - In the garden of Eden God told man that if they sinned they would die. Man sinned, choosing to listen to Satan instead of God, thereby bringing the death sentence upon the world. In choosing Satan over the word of God, mankind became the enemies of God and in so doing became destined for hell.
God in His infinite mercy already had a plan thru which mankind could be reconciled to Him - and avoid going to hell.
God's plan is that anyone who is absolutely and totally sinless from cradle to grave, i.e. completely RIGHTEOUS, would be able to enter into His kingdom. Of course, the bible makes it quite clear that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God - no one is absolutely righteous through their own efforts. If you have committed even ONE small sin, e.g. lie or disobeyed your parents, you have failed to meet God's high standards.
The only way to achieve that complete righteousness is to have one's sins forgiven and have God's own righteousness conferred on one. God's plan is that Jesus would die on the cross to pay the penalty for mankind's sin - setting them free from the wrath to come - BUT only for those who believe that Jesus' death on the cross is sufficient payment for their sins and that they cannot in any way, shape or form by their own efforts make any kind of restitution for their sins. They have to rely solely and completely on Jesus' death on the cross. IF they get to that point, the righteousness of Christ - His SINLESS LIVING here on earth - is credited to them as if it were their OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS!
This is the *ONLY RIGHTEOUSNESS* that God will accept - the *RIGHTEOUSNESS OF CHRIST!*
No amount of penance, repentance, good living, good morals, good deeds or any other efforts mankind can make can achieve that state of righteousness! This means that the sinner that wants to enter God's kingdom is absolutely and totally dependent on JESUS' RIGHTEOUSNESS - this is why Jesus said "Unless your righteousness exceeds that of the Pharisees you will in no wise enter into God's kingdom" and that's also why Jesus said "I AM the Way, the TRUTH and the LIFE, no one comes to the Father except thru me". There is no other way but Jesus - because HE is the ONLY SINLESS MAN whose sacrifice is acceptable to God.
