      Very good to have 👂 to hear. Last year I was asleep 😴 on my daughter’s bed 🛌. In the 3 o’clock hour in the morning I woke to the soft voice of the Holy Spirit say “ Philippians 1:21 “ I got up and started my day, immediately wondering if that’s even a scripture verse from the Bible? I looked it up and found it ❤.

    7:55 "There's always something you could complain about, but a follower of Jesus knows that life is a gift and can choose to see beauty and grace in any life circumstance."
    Thank you for that :) That's wonderful

      I used to complain about everything but being in spiritual warfare I've learned matter how bad things are or get it's always something to thank God for. Look around you look at the people in the third world countries suffering nothing looking at your children starve and they can't be helped. Look at the children that are born deformed has cancer St Jude Hospital. Today before God I'm ashamed to complain about anything. Today all I ask God is for endurance in the name of Jesus Amen.

For to me to present the word of God i must understand the original intent of a Author whom they refer to that present day, meaning original ordinance that were there at that time, and than I could take a "biblical principle" and, Me living it first, and than preach and teaches for applicable in a bigger picture to others.

    Heavenly Father, I come to you this morning at a very low point, and I humbly ask for your strength and encouragement. Even though I know in my heart that I am never alone and all I need do is call on your name Lord, I still fight this mental battle of feeling unworthy, broken, and too weak to stand on my own. Help me Father, help me forget these things that keep me from you, that allow Satan in to plant these seeds of worry and doubt, and please help me be the Christian I need to be in the world.

      Your words are exactly where I find myself today.
      I feel defective and unworthy of love. I struggle to see myself as He must see me and I just want it all to be over. I know it will pass but it seems like it won't. I understand that my mind is fertile ground for the enemy and have been asking the Lord for help.

    8:12 "His imprisonments, his times of poverty, that these are not true hardships for [Paul]. They've actually become his greatest teachers. Showing [Paul] that no matter his circumstances, he has learned the secret of contentment -- it' simple dependence on the one who strengthens him."
    I love this idea, and I hope to see my own mistakes and struggles as "the greatest teachers" in my life rather than moments of regret and embarrassment. Thanks for this.

      ISAIAH 50 - PHILIPPIANS
      “I gave My back to those who struck Me, and My cheeks to those who plucked out the beard; I did not hide My face from shame and spitting.” (Isaiah 50:6)
      WORDS BY: JESUS
      "My scourging at the time of the cross only reflected the life of spiritual suffering I lived in. I lived My life of sacrifice, of denying evil, or in other words fasting. Fasting comes in many forms not just food. It is a representation of going without for the greater in return. To suffer is no different to this and it is not referring to being in torment, but it simply means denying yourself for My sake. It means to count all things as loss in order to gain the highest prize - Me. When I was beaten and scourged, My prize was you. I counted it a joy to suffer for your sake, knowing that through it I would gain you. That is why it was a joy for Me to give My back to be struck and My cheeks to have My beared plucked. That is why I did not hide My face from shame and spitting; because it was a joy to suffer for you. Do you count it a joy to suffer for My sake? I do not require you to be beaten and scourged but I do require you to live a life of prayer and fasting. Like Peter, James and John on the Mountain of Transfiguration, they walked in the instant power because they were with Me.
      Living a life of fasting is what it means for you to suffer. You must fast from your own desires even as I did, and focus your life building towards the real prize, knowing that in Me you have nothing to lose but everything to gain. Suffering is but for the moment so count it a joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that it will produce fruits of life. It is these fruits that make a person who they are in Me. Therefore, whatever things are true, noble, just, pure, lovely, of good report, - meditate on these things. Let this be your hope. It begins with will you make Me the prize of your life?"

    This video is absolutely fantastic and a Godsend to understanding Paul and the Philippians. It really gives a better understanding to the backstory. Now I can read the Bible with a larger depth

    Always thought of the bible as a big intimidating book but the simplification gives clarity

    ISAIAH 50 - PHILIPPIANS
    “I gave My back to those who struck Me, and My cheeks to those who plucked out the beard; I did not hide My face from shame and spitting.” (Isaiah 50:6)
    WORDS BY: JESUS
    "My scourging at the time of the cross only reflected the life of spiritual suffering I lived in. I lived My life of sacrifice, of denying evil, or in other words fasting. Fasting comes in many forms not just food. It is a representation of going without for the greater in return. To suffer is no different to this and it is not referring to being in torment, but it simply means denying yourself for My sake. It means to count all things as loss in order to gain the highest prize - Me. When I was beaten and scourged, My prize was you. I counted it a joy to suffer for your sake, knowing that through it I would gain you. That is why it was a joy for Me to give My back to be struck and My cheeks to have My beared plucked. That is why I did not hide My face from shame and spitting; because it was a joy to suffer for you. Do you count it a joy to suffer for My sake? I do not require you to be beaten and scourged but I do require you to live a life of prayer and fasting. Like Peter, James and John on the Mountain of Transfiguration, they walked in the instant power because they were with Me.
    Living a life of fasting is what it means for you to suffer. You must fast from your own desires even as I did, and focus your life building towards the real prize, knowing that in Me you have nothing to lose but everything to gain. Suffering is but for the moment so count it a joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that it will produce fruits of life. It is these fruits that make a person who they are in Me. Therefore, whatever things are true, noble, just, pure, lovely, of good report, - meditate on these things. Let this be your hope. It begins with will you make Me the prize of your life?"
