The Father Has Room For You
The Father Has Room For You
11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.
Jeremiah29:11 NLT
“For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you future and a hope.”
10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: And the knowledge of the holy is understanding.
Psalm 112:1-10 AMP
1 Praise the Lord! (Hallelujah!)
Blessed [fortunate, prosperous, and favored by God] is the man who fears the Lord [with awe-inspired reverence and worships Him with obedience], Who delights in His commandments.
Psalm 112:2 AMP
2 His descendants will be might on earth; The generation of the upright will be blessed.
Psalm 112:3-4 AMP
3 Wealth and riches are in his house, And his righteousness endures forever. 4 Light arises in the darkness for the upright; He is gracious and compassionate and righteous (upright -in right standing with God.)
Psalm 112: 5-6 AMP
5 It is well with the man who is gracious and lends; He conducts his affairs with justice. 6 He will never be shaken; The righteous will be remembered forever.
Psalm 112:7-8 AMP
7 He will not fear bad news; His heart is steadfast, trusting [confidently relying on and believing] in the Lord.
8 His heart is upheld, he will not fear while he looks [with satisfaction] on his adversaries.
Psalm 112:9-10 AMP
9 He has given freely to the poor; His righteousness endures forever; His horn will be exalted in honor.
10 The wicked will see it and be angered, He will gnash his teeth and melt away [in despair and death]; The desire pf the wicked will perish and come to nothing.
1 John 4:18 AMP
There is no fear in love[dread does not exist]. But perfect love (complete, full-grown) love drives out fear, because fear involves [the expectation of divine punishment, so the who who is afraid [of God’s judgment] is not perfected in love [has not grown into a sufficient understanding of God’s love]
9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
Matthew 20 :1-16 AMP
1”For the kingdom of heaven is like the owner of an estate who went out in the morning at dawn to hire workmen for his vineyard.
2 When he had agreed with the laborers for a denarius for the day, he sent them into his vineyard.
3 And he went out about the third hour(9:00AM) and saw others standing idle in the market place;
4 and said to them, ‘You also go into the vineyard, and I will pay you whatever is right (an appropriate wage).’ And they went.
5 He went out about the 6th hour (noon) and the 9th hour (3pm), and did the same thing.
6 And about the 11th hour (5pm) he went out and found others standing around, and said to them, ‘Why have you been standing idle all day?’
7 They answered him, ‘Because no one hired us.’ He told them, ‘You go into the vineyard also.’
8 “When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his manager, ‘Call the workers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last [to be hired] and ending with the first [to be hired].’
9Those who had been hired at the 11th hour (5pm) came and received a denarius each [a day’s wage].
10 Now when the first [to be hired] came, they thought they would get more; but each of them also received a denarius.
11-12 When they received it, they protested and grumbled at the owner of the estate, saying, ‘These men who came last worked [only] one hour, and yet you have made them equal [in wages] to us who have carried [most of] the burden [worked in] the scorching heat of the day.’
13 But the owner of the estate replied to one of them, ‘Friend, I am doing you no injustice. Did you not agree with me for a denarius?
14 Take what belongs to you and go, but I choose to give to this last man [hired] the same as I give to you.
15 Am I not lawfully permitted to do what I choose with what is mine? Or is your eye envious because I am generous?’
16 So those who are last[in this world] shall be first [in the world to come], and those are first, last.”
