Love opens doors because God will get behind it and push them open. To the church at Philadelphia
Rev. 3:8 To the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: These are the words of the One who is holy and true, who holds the key of David. What He opens, no one will shut; and what He shuts, no one will open. I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.
I can hear the Spirit of the Lord say, “soo many are pressured thinking no one could understand the depth of their sufferings. But Jesus reaches out to you, for the purpose of bringing you healing and deliverance, he suffered more than any human being could suffer. He took the chastisement of your peace so that you could be mentally sound. No don’t go down in grief, lift up your hurting arms to him and he will bring relief.”
John 19:1-3
Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged him. And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple robe, And said, Hail, King of the Jews!
Isaiah 53:3-5
He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
Springing forth thou summer is nigh, the peaceable fruits of righteousness
Godly sorry worketh repentance. Those things that sought to separate you from your brother or sister; such pressing issues ( and this is a word for many but all can be instructed ) have arisen because of tumultuous strifes and division.) Now linger in the Law Of love, be healed and strengthen, for perfect love drives out all fear. Shutting the door on sorrows and tears.
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews. 11:1 This being the case, we rejoice! Everything may look the same. It even may appear to be growing darker and drear. But since we have established our hearts in the truth of God’s promises, we give glory to God through faith’s expression of Joy. Satan can’t do anything with us when we respond continually in joy in his word. No. Blessings and a long satisfying life are ours.
Psalms 91:16
16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him ( that’s her too) my salvation.
The history of what then was, inevitably is going to repeat itself. So, be very sure, that your anchor holds, and grips the solid rock. This rock is Jesus. For Jesus Christ is the same yesterday today and forever. Hebrews 13:8
Psalms 97:3-6
3 A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about.
4 His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled.
5 The hills melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
6 The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory.
11Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised. 12Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.

Exodus 2 The Mother Of Moses when she saw that he was a goodly child, hid her son for three months not fearing the decree that all the male babies should be destroyed. Then set him in an ark made of bulrush committing him to God. Before it was all over, she ended up nursing her own son for the Pharaohs daughter. And got paid to do it at the same time. Then God raised him up to be the deliverer of his people Exodus 2:9
Hanna
1 Samuel 1,2; 2:21
The mother on Samuel was barren and went to the temple in tears not eating and making a vow. She said if God would give her a son, she would lend him to the Lord all his days. Not only was Samuel born she kept her vow, for when he as weaned, she took him to the temple. God then visited Hanna and she bore three sons and two daughters. Samuel Judged Israel all his days.
Not many people can make promises of this nature and cause them to be made available. But our great God not only made the promises, if your up for the challenge he will prove every word of it. Satan says you won’t, they don’t have the stamina, The will surely fail. I know he used to scream that in my ears, until I made a quality decision to take God’s word literally. And over and over, he does just what he said. God grant you grace to pull up and be made sure of the greatest desire of God’s heart; to show himself strong on the behalf those who believe.
2 Chronicles 16:9 King James Version (KJV)
9 For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars.
Isaiah 32:17,18
16Then justice will inhabit the wilderness,and righteousness will dwell in the fertile field.17The work of righteousness will be peace;the service of righteousness will be quiet confidence forever.
Tried in the fire, in the furnace of afflictions, remaining strong. The word of God is as a breastplate, the word of God as your song. Standing tall at attention, your feet shod with the word of God. Your belt buckled tight, His word at your hip, No treacherous scheme to make a slip. Treading upon the unseen forces of darkness, you keep your song. Sharper then a two-edge sword, you continue to move forward with the word of the Lord. Your helmet secure, it’s leveled on, so that your mind is secure your thoughts remain sure, and above all your faith that encompasses you as a shield. No danger, no fear, no nemesis permitted to stand on your premises. You continue you to carry on, his proven armor, The Word Of God is your song.
Ephesians 6:10-17 Finally , my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. 11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. 13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 15 Your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. 17And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
In the book of Isaiah, strange sightings have been reported hovering over those uncompromisingly righteous. Even to this very day, It looks like a cloud that encircles them. Light has been seen shooting forth from their hands. What appears to be two to three people robed in white following them from the rear. This area was roped off, but God has taken the rope away. It’s states in Isaiah, that he would be the their rear- guard, for their holiness in drawing out their souls to the afflicted.
Isaiah 58:8,9a
8 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy rereward.
9 Then shalt thou call, and the LORD shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am….
“What is his name?” The children’s Israel would assuredly ask. “Tell them, “I Am That I Am”, he told Moses. Through the honor of His covenant made with Abraham Isaac and Jacob, he performed a series of staggering miracles to deliver the seed from captivity, and sin that was the catalyst of that crushing bondage. Careful analysts of their history should shape our desire to live in such away that as the ancient house of Israel was liberated, we too can be participants.
Exodus 3:14
And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shall you say unto the children of Israel, I AM has sent me unto you
