ANOTHER COFFEE BREAK: THE PSALM 23 ADVENTURE, Part 51

Let’s finish where we left off last week in talking about Jesus’ life as an example of the cup running over, and then explore the covenant that comes with the cup as it relates to what Jesus has done on our behalf and what He has made available to us.

Today we shift gears to the next phase of this adventure – and this is no less important to our development in Christ than any of the previous stages. Perhaps one of the least understood facets in the way that David expresses himself in the 23rd Psalm, his statement that “My cup runneth over,” uses phraseology that is long lost in modern speech.

ANOTHER COFFEE BREAK: THE PSALM 23 ADVENTURE, Part 49

We’re going to run long today in an effort to wrap up this portion of our Psalm 23 adventure. We finished up last week talking about David’s expansion of the families of worshipers.
Take a look, if you will, at I Chronicles 25.

ANOTHER COFFEE BREAK: THE PSALM 23 ADVENTURE, Part 48

And another good Friday morning to y’all. Guess I really thought I’d be able to wrap up this discussion on David’s statement, Thou anointest my head with oil, but after seeing notes that I’ve taken with the ongoing, almost daily revelations from Holy Spirit, it is apparent that we are going to be at this for a few more weeks.

ANOTHER COFFEE BREAK: THE PSALM 23 ADVENTURE, Part 47

We covered Revelation 4:1-13 as we wrapped up last week’s Coffee Break and we need to consider the significance of what John saw and experienced.
What’s the first thing John sees? 24 elders seated about the Throne of God. I’ve shared this before but it’s been awhile so let me revisit this picture.

ANOTHER COFFEE BREAK: THE PSALM 23 ADVENTURE, Part 46

We have an incredible amount of territory to cover today. It’s going to look like I’ve really departed from the subject at hand, but I assure you that I havc not. It is really important to draw a complete picture for you so that you understand the enormous significance of what God is preparing to do in those people who enter into an intimate relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.

One more story before we get started today, if you don’t mind, about our granddaughter, Jasmine. Without getting into a lot of unnecessary detail, she has sort of been “the odd man out,” to use an old cliché. She came into the family after the other children were already on the scene and struggled initially to gain acceptance with the other children, as well as many of her peers. The consequence of it was that she became very territorial. Her things were her things, and she was slow to share with her brothers and her younger sister.

Felicitations and Blessings, everyone! We are all aware of the cliché that comes with Friday: TGIF. Nope! Not for me, and not for our family! Our labors run seven days a week. Now, don’t get me wrong.  Sunday is a day of rest, and that’s because the total change of routine and activity is a break – and a rest – from the business activities that go on Monday through Saturday. But it is still a very busy day of ministry, of sharing, of teaching, etc., and the refreshing that comes in the presence of the Lord brings a rest that no amount of sleep can replace.
