PJP2 PROLOG 160818 PROLOG Focus - Acts 20:24....Topic: GrOG (GRACE)....

Psalm 59:16-17 (ESV/emphasis added/jaj)...."BUT I Will Sing of YOUR Strength; I Will Sing Aloud of YOUR Steadfast LOVE In The Morning.  For YOU Have Been to me A Fortress And A Refuge in the day of my distress.  O my Strength, I Will Sing Praises to YOU, For YOU, O God, Are my Fortress, The God WHO Shows me Steadfast LOVE."....

PJP2 PROLOG POST 160818 -Acts 20:24 (ESV/emphasis added/jaj)...."BUT I Do NOT Account my life of any value NOR as precious to myself, IF Only I May Finish my Course And The Ministry That I Received from The Lord Jesus, To Testify To The Gospel Of The GRACE of God."....

As my time as an AD/AF Airmen draws to a close, I have found myself Reflecting and Pondering on both the past 30 cumulative years of wearing The Cloth of our Nation, as well as God's Next Adventure for Team Johnson.   What I Hear The Holy Spirit Sharing with me touches both posts of the Past and the Future.

...."IF Only I May Finish my Course And The Ministry That I Received from The Lord Jesus, To Testify To The Gospel Of The GRACE of God."....

What I Hear Him Saying is, regardless of what He's Given me to do in The Past, or even in The Future....The Bottom-Line/Up-Front is.....Keep my Focus on Him and Testify to His GOSPEL (God's Own Son Providing Everlasting Life) Working In, Around and Through my LIFE each and every moment, each and every day, in each and every way, both the Good and the not-so-good.

Wow!

Thus my prayer for us today would be a Paraphrase of Prayer and Praise from His Holy Spirit's Inspired WORD as Recorded by the Psalmist in Psalm 138:2-3, 7-8 (ESV/emphasis & paraphrase added/jaj)....O Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, Father God, we bow down Toward Your Holy Temple And Give Thanks To Your Name.  Lord Jesus, we Thank and Praise You for Your Steadfast LOVE And Your Faithfulness.  Holy Spirit, You Are Exalted Above All things.  Father God, Your Name And Your WORD Are Above all others.  Lord Jesus, Thank You, for On the day we Called, You Answered us.  Holy Spirit, Because of You in our Lives, our Strength of Soul You Increased. Father God, even Though we Walk in the midst of trouble, Thank You, for You Preserve our Lives.  Lord Jesus, Please Stretch Out Your Mighty Hand against the wrath of the old enemy of our Souls.  Holy Spirit, with Your Right Hand, Please, Continue to Deliver us.  Father God, You Are our Lord and we Know You Will Fulfill Your Purpose For us.  Lord Jesus, we Thank You and Know that Your Steadfast LOVE, O Lord, Endures Forever. Thank You, Holy Spirit that You Never forsake us, the Work Of Your Hands.  Father God, In The Name of Your Son, our Lord, Jesus Christ, we Lift Up our Prayers and Praise....Amen and Amen....jaj
