GRACE UPON GRACE

PHILIPPIANS 4:4-5 REJOICE  IN THE LORD  ALWAYS; AND AGAIN  I SAY, REJOICE. LET YOUR  MODERATION  BE KNOWN  UNTO  ALL MEN. THE LORD IS AT HAND. LOVE

ISAIAH 33:10-13 NOW WILL I RISE,  SAITH THE LORD; NOW  WILL I BE EXALTED;  NOW  WILL I LIFT UP MYSELF.  YE SHALL CONCEIVE  CHAFF,  YE SHALL  BRING FORTH STUBBLE:  YOUR BREATH,  AS FIRE,  SHALL DEVOUR YOU. AND  THE PEOPLE SHALL  BE  AS  THE BURNING OF LIME:  AS THORNS CUT UP  SHALL  THEY BE BURNED  IN THE FIRE.  HEAR,  YE THAT ARE FAR OFF,  WHAT  I HAVE DONE;  AND,  YE THAT ARE NEAR,  ACKNOWLEDGE MY MIGHT.  LOVE

ISAIAH 56:10-12   THE LORD GOD, WHICH  GATHERETH  THE OUTCASTS OF ISRAEL  SAITH,  YET  WILL I GATHER  OTHERS TO HIM,  BESIDE THOSE  THAT ARE GATHERED  UNTO HIM.  ALL YE BEASTS  OF THE FIELD,  COME TO DEVOUR,  YEA,  ALL YE BEASTS  OF  THE FOREST. HIS  WATCHMEN  ARE BLIND: THEY ARE ALL IGNORANT,  THEY  ARE  ALL DUMB DOGS,  THEY CANNOT BARK;  SLEEPING  LAYING DOWN,  LOVING TO SLUMBER.  YEA,  THEY ARE GREEDY DOGS  WHICH CAN  NEVER HAVE ENOUGH,  AND  THEY ARE SHEPHERDS  THAT  CANNOT UNDERSTAND:  THEY  ALL LOOK  TO THEIR OWN WAY,  EVERY ONE  FOR HIS GAIN,  FOR HIS QUARTER.  COME YE,  SAY THEY,  I WILL FETCH WINE,  AND  WE WILL FILL  OURSELVES  WITH  STRONG DRINK;  AN...

ISAIAH 56:1-5    THUS SAITH  THE LORD,  KEEP YE JUDGEMENT  AND  DO JUSTICE:  FOR  MY SALVATION  IS  NEAR TO COME,  AND  MY RIGHTEOUSNESS  TO BE REVEALED.   BLESSED  IS  THE MAN  THAT DOETH THIS,  AND  THE SON OF MAN  THAT LAYETH  HOLD ON IT;  THAT  KEEPETH  THE SABBATH  FROM  POLLUTING IT,  AND  KEEPING HIS HAND  FROM DOING EVIL.  NEITHER LET  THE SON OF THE STRANGER,  THAT  HATH JOINED  HIMSELF TO THE LORD,  SPEAK,  SAYING,  THE LORD HATH  UTTERLY SEPARATED  ME FROM  HIS PEOPLE:  NEITHER LET  THE EUNUCH SAY,  BEHOLD,  I AM A DRY TREE.  FOR THUS SAITH  THE LORD  UNTO  THE EUNUCHS  THAT  KEEP MY SABBATHS,  AND  CHOOSE THE THI...

PSALM 76:6-9 AT THY REBUKE, O GOD OF JACOB, BOTH THE CHARIOT AND HORSE ARE CAST INTO THE DEAD SLEEP. THOU, EVEN THOU, ART TO BE FEARED: AND WHO MAY STAND IN THY SIGHT WHEN ONCE THOU ART ANGRY? THOU DIDST CAUSE JUDGEMENT TO BE HEARD FROM HEAVEN; THE EARTH FEARED, AND WAS STILL, WHEN GOD AROSE TO JUDGEMENT, TO SAVE ALL THE MEEK OF THE EARTH. LOVE

MATTHEW 24:23-27 THEN IF ANY MAN SHALL SAY UNTO YOU,  LO, HERE IS CHRIST, OR THERE; BELIEVE IT NOT, FOR THERE SHALL ARISE FALSE CHRISTS, AND FALSE PROPHETS, AND SHALL SHEW GREAT SIGNS AND WONDERS; INSOMUCH THAT, IF IT WERE POSSIBLE, THEY SHALL DECEIVE THE VERY ELECT. BEHOLD, I HAVE TOLD YOU BEFORE. WHEREFORE IF THEY SHALL SAY UNTO YOU, BEHOLD, HE IS IN THE DESERT; GO NOT FORTH: BEHOLD, HE IS IN  THE SECRET CHAMBERS; BELIEVE IT NOT. FOR AS THE LIGHTNING COMETH OUT OF THE EAST, AND SHINETH  EVEN UNTO THE WEST; SO SHALL ALSO THE COMING  OF  THE SON OF MAN BE. LOVE

PSALM 32:9-11       BE YE  NOT AS THE HORSE,  OR  AS THE MULE,  WHICH HAVE  NO UNDERSTANDING:  WHOSE  MOUTH  MUST BE HELD  IN  WITH  BIT AND BRIDLE,  LEST THEY COME  NEAR UNTO THEE.   MANY SORROWS  SHALL BE  TO THE WICKED:  BUT  HE THAT  TRUSTED  IN THE LORD,  MERCY SHALL  COMPASS HIM  ABOUT.  BE GLAD IN THE LORD,  AND  REJOICE,  YE RIGHTEOUS:  AND  SHOUT FOR JOY,  ALL YE  THAT ARE UPRIGHT  IN HEART.  LOVE

PSALM 36:11-12   LET NOT THE FOOT OF PRIDE COME AGAINST ME, AND LET NOT THE HAND OF THE WICKED REMOVE ME. THERE ARE THE WORKERS OF INIQUITY FALLEN: THEY ARE CAST DOWN, AND SHALL NOT BE ABLE TO RISE.    LOVE

1 SAMUEL 17:45-47 T HE N SAID DAVID  TO THE PHILISTINE,  THOU COMEST TO ME  WITH  A SWORD,  AND  WITH A SPEAR,  AND  WITH A SHIELD:  BUT  I COME TO THEE  IN THE  NAME OF  THE LORD OF HOSTS,  THE GOD OF THE ARMIES OF ISRAEL,  WHOM  THOU HAST DEFIED.  THIS DAY WILL  THE LORD DELIVER  THEE INTO MINE HAND;   AND  I WILL SMITE THEE,  AND  TAKE THINE HEAD  FROM THEE; AND  I WILL GIVE THE CARCASES  OF  THE HOST OF THE PHILISTINES  THIS DAY  UNTO  THE FOWLS OF THE AIR,  AND  TO  THE WILD BEAST OF THE EARTH;  THAT  ALL THE EARTH  MAY KNOW  THAT  THERE IS A GOD IN ISRAEL.  AND  ALL THIS ASSEMBLY  SHALL KNOW  THAT THE LORD SAVETH  NOT  WITH  SWORD AND SPEAR:  FOR  T...

ISAIAH 30:8-13     NOW GO,  WRITE IT BEFORE  THEM IN A TABLE,  AND  NOTE IT IN A BOOK,  THAT IT MAY BE  FOR THE  TIME TO COME  FOR EVER AND EVER:  THAT  THIS IS A REBELLIOUS  PEOPLE,  LYING CHILDREN,  CHILDREN  THAT  WILL NOT HEAR  THE LAW OF THE LORD:  WHICH SAY  TO THE SEERS,  SEE NOT;  AND  TO THE PROPHETS,  PROPHESY NOT  UNTO  US RIGHT THINGS,  SPEAK UNTO US  SMOOTH THINGS,  PROPHESY DECEITS:  GET YOU OUT  OF THE WAY,  TURN ASIDE  OUT OF THE PATH,  CAUSE  THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL  TO CEASE  FROM BEFORE US.  WHEREFORE  THUS SAITH  THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL,  BECAUSE  YE DESPISE THIS WORD,  AND  TRUST IN OPPRESSION  AND  PERVERSENESS,  AND  STAY THEREON:...

HEBREWS 6:13-20   FOR WHEN GOD  MADE PROMISE  TO ABRAHAM,  BECAUSE  HE COULD SWEAR  BY NO GREATER,  HE  SWARE  BY HIMSELF,  SAYING,  SURELY BLESSING  I WILL BLESS THEE,  AND  MULTIPLYING  I WILL MULTIPLY THEE.  AND SO,  AFTER HE HAD PATIENTLY ENDURED,  HE OBTAINED  THE PROMISE.   FOR MEN  VERILY SWEAR  BY THE GREATER: AND  AN OATH  FOR CONFIRMATION  IS TO THEM  AN  END OF ALL STRIFE.  WHEREIN GOD, WILLING MORE ABUNDANTLY TO SHEW UNTO THE HEIRS OF PROMISE THE IMMUTABILITY OF HIS COUNSEL, CONFIRMED IT BY AN OATH: THAT BY TWO IMMUTABLE THINGS, IN WHICH IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE FOR GOD TO LIE, WE MIGHT  HAVE A STRONG  CONSOLATION,  WHO HAVE FLED FOR REFUGE  TO  LAY HOLD  UPON THE HOPE  SET BEFORE US:  WHICH HOPE WE HAVE  AS  AN ANC...
