John 15

The Vine and the Branches

4-20-13 Walk 004

 “I Am the true vine, and My Father is the gardener.

4-20-13 Walk 017

He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit,

while every branch that does bear fruit He prunes

so that it will be even more fruitful.

4-20-13 Walk 048

You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you.

4-20-13 Walk 050

 Remain in Me, as I also remain in you.

No branch can bear fruit by itself;

it must remain in the vine.

Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in Me.

4-14-13 Walk 054

I Am the vine;

you are the branches.

If you remain in Me and I in you,

you will bear much fruit;

apart from Me you can do nothing.

4-14-13 Walk 056

 If you do not remain in me,

you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers;

such branches are picked up,

thrown into the fire and burned.

4-13-13 Walk 015

If you remain in Me and My words remain in you,

ask whatever you wish,

and it will be done for you.

4-7-13 Walk 026

This is to my Father’s Glory,

that you bear much fruit,

showing yourselves to be my disciples.

4-7-13 Walk 035

As the Father has loved Me,

so have I loved you.

Now remain in My love.

3-2-13 Walk 017

If you keep my commands,

you will remain in My love,

just as I have kept my Father’s commands

and remain in His love.

2-25-13 walk 014

I have told you this so that My joy

may be in you

and that your joy may be complete.

4-21-13 Walk 027

My command is this:

Love each other

as I have loved you.

4-21-13 Walk 113

Greater love has no one than this:

to lay down one’s life for one’s friends

4-21-13 Walk 112

You are My friends

if you do what I command

4-20-13 Walk 042

I no longer call you servants,

because a servant does not know his master’s business.

Instead, I have called you friends,

for everything that I learned from My Father

I have made known to you. 

4-20-13 Walk 052

You did not choose Me,

but I chose you and appointed you

so that you might go and bear fruit—

fruit that will last—

and so that whatever you ask in My Name the Father will give you.

4-20-13 Walk 001

This is my command:

Love each other.”

You’re Branches!!!

Remain attached to The Vine!

Flourish

and

Branch Out!

Bear Fruit!

Love

He Wills It!

I’m Worn Out!!

Standard

Ever been there????

I had a rough week of lack of sleep, feeling sick with coughing and runny nose, trying to get rest, trying to go to work, trying to fill my obligations, too much going on, trying to figure out what to cut out, lack of concentration, getting nothing done…

And so on, and so on…

I’m worn!

Let this song soak into your entire being…

Jesus, give us rest!

“Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”  Matthew 11:28

When we cry out with all that’s left in us!

So we can see that Redemption wins!

That struggles end!

Jesus, mend our heart that’s frail and torn…

Even when we’re tired…

Even when we’re worn!

Help us know a song to You can rise…

Even from the ashes of our broken life…

And all that’s dead inside can be reborn…

Even when we’re worn!

Lift up our eyes…

Though we feel too weak…

When life just won’t let up…

 “For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”  Matthew 11:30

 You can give us rest…

We’re crying out with all that we have left…

Our prayers are wearing thin…

We’re worn, even before the day begins!

We’re worn, and we’ve lost our will to fight…

Lord, we’re just plain worn out!!

“He gives strength to the weary, and increases the power of the weak.”  Isaiah 40:29

So Heaven come and flood our eyes…

So all that’s dead inside will be reborn!

Help us!

Especially when we’re worn!!

“My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him.”  Psalm 62:1

Hey, Christians! Give Me A Break!

Standard

Jesus did!

He loved me and saved me, while I was yet a sinner…

“But God demonstrates His own love for us in this:

While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 

Romans 5:8  NIV

Why can’t you just love me, while I’m yet a sinner???

You know it only takes one touch from Jesus to cleanse me…

One Touch!!!

To make me a new creation in Christ!

I might be far from God right now…

But, I’m never far from that One Touch!

Christians…

If we are the Body of Christ… 

We Are The Body Of Christ!

Reach with His Arms…

Heal with His Hands…

Teach with His Words…

Go with His Feet…

Show the Way with His Love…

The Way to Jesus…

He paid much too high a price…

For us to pick and choose who should come…

He is the  One Way…

And they only need One Touch from Him!

God Thinks You’re Someone Worth Dying For…

Standard

The Cross has proven that!

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son,

that whoever believes in Him should not perish

but have eternal life.”

John 3:16 ESV

“And by that will we have been sanctified

through the offering of the body of

Jesus Christ

once for all.”

Hebrews 10:10 ESV

 

But Sometimes You Need To Be Convinced!

You’re praying, God can you hear me?

Oh, God are you listening?

Am I more than flesh and bone?

Am I really something beautiful?

I wanna believe…

I wanna believe that I’m not just some wandering soul…

That You don’t see…

And You don’t know…

Jesus help me believe…

That I’m someone worth dying for!

 If God has set you free…

How can you think you’re the one that grace could never reach?

 Everybody’s asking…

His answer is…

You’re worth it…

You can’t earn it…

The Cross proves…

That you’re sacred and blameless…

Your life has purpose…

More than flesh and bone…

Something beautiful!

Believe!  Believe!

He wants you to see…

You’re a precious someone worth dying for!
