For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly; And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly; And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked: (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;) The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:
And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus. Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.
And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs. And they talked together of all these things which had happened. And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them. But their eyes were holden that they should not know him. And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad? And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things which are come to pass there in these days? And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people: And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him. But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done. Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre; And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive. And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not. Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken: Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory? And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself. And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further. But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them. And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them. And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight. And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures? And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them, Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.
O Lord, thou hast deceived me, and I was deceived:
Thou art stronger than I, and hast prevailed:
I am in derision daily,
Every one mocketh me.
For since I spake, I cried out,
I cried violence and spoil;
Because the word of the Lord was made a reproach unto me,
And a derision, daily.
Then I said, I will not make mention of him,
Nor speak any more in his name.
But his word was in mine heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones,
And I was weary with forbearing, and I could not stay.
For I heard the defaming of many, fear on every side.
Report, say they, and we will report it.
All my familiars watched for my halting, saying,
Peradventure he will be enticed, and we shall prevail against him,
And we shall take our revenge on him.
But the Lord is with me as a mighty terrible one:
Therefore my persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail:
They shall be greatly ashamed; for they shall not prosper:
Their everlasting confusion shall never be forgotten.
But, O Lord of hosts, that triest the righteous,
And seest the reins and the heart,
Let me see thy vengeance on them:
For unto thee have I opened my cause.
Sing unto the Lord, praise ye the Lord:
For he hath delivered the soul of the poor from the hand of evildoers.
WHAT ABOUT THAT LIFE a catch praise for living in this wold of madness and despair a mantra to those that are in the struggle and dealing with life one day at a time, the struggle is real. being about that life is an acceptance of the fact that times are difficult and there are times when i that i have to do things i dont like in order to survive . some body in here is about that life not by choice or fashion but because its the hand that has been given to them,
some of you have come into this world and your environment, and situation you live in dictate that in order to survive you must be about that life.
don't dispair dont hold in your pain and anguish when your stress strains and struggles seem to much to bare God is able to deliver you. when it seems that the whole world is against you God is able deliver, sometimes we try to fix temporary situations with permanent solutions, the solution is the deliverance of God let not another futher in this room or in your life go with out knowing that God can and will deliver even when you find yourself being about that life..
the church is not a place of judgment but a place of support and healing its a place of comforting arms, listening ears, understanding hearts, being about that life does not mean that your alone with no way out allow the love of God deliver you when all esle has continued to let you down , friends , family, the system has all let you down or turned their backs on you God is able to deliver you ....
look here at noah times was so bad that God himself repented for making man and yet he delivered noah … the next one is the one that most of us can relate with Lot
And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked: (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;) (Lots attempt to appease the mob)
Lot found himself being about that life, having to do things just to survive the place and time that he was in his situation dictated his response to life's predicaments.
Im glad to be able to inform you that its time not to be about that life where we respond instead of live, its time out for being about that life where even when were surviving we are losing loved ones senselessly ...
its time to be about this life, where the love of God provides a path to brighter day, be about this life where sadness is overcome by the Joy that only God can give, about this life where love defeats the hatetred of today, be about this life where Gods word helps you navigate and escape the pitfalls placed before us.
