HEBREWS 
CHAPTER 2

Good morning 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞
As we get into Psalms; we will read more about human emotions and the ups and downs most Christians go through. Yes, we are human. As you read the New Testament Letters remember they are written during the dispensation of the Holy Spirit. The writers are powerful and strong but remember they are endowed with power from on high. The standard is higher but as a new Christian allow God to do the work. Don't ever think you don't make mistakes. We don't sin intentionally but there will be moments were you feel like a slab of flesh but as you stay with God it will happen less and less. I know radical Christians who think they are perfect but guess what they lie. We don't make the same mistakes but we make them. Remember God is the righteous judge he always looking at your ❤️. For this reason I did the Bible study. We have 100 strong days in the bible living right and there's that 3 or 4 days in the year, you blow it and the devil goes in. He has sat and watched and Waited for you to mess  up. He planned it; and now he will wants you to quit. Guess what this is a commitment. In the rain, in the sun, and in the snow we will stick with the bible and at the end of the year pray for growth. Pray that our strength maybe strong 💪. I saw a quote on yesterday about people,  you may have to reject those that you think you need their approval. They will be the one the devil uses to tear you down. We need God. Get people out of sight. We get ensnared  like that.  You don't need people over your life but we need a powerful God who can show us how to defeat the devil. Your mistakes is your business but there's no pretending here but there's growing like tree. It doesn't glorify  God to be mindful of our short comings.  We are being planted by rivers of living water and we will bring forth fruit in our season. The passage is mentioning temptation and there will be days when it feels wrong. But make it right and get up quickly. Tell the devil to get back behind you. Some how he got outta place or we have given him place. But God is patient and kind. have some abused his Mercy, yes but we have to access it. You may have 200 good days in a year versus your 10 bad days what do you think God thinks? Do you think he doesn't understand that you want to do right but evil is always present with us? The devil has groups of demons working. God rejoices at one sinner who repents how much more is in mindful of us. Or shall we say have an understanding about us. 

I had a bad year a few years ago. No details.  But I punished myself by not reading my bible. I was just to bad to read it. God deserved better than me. Guess what, It was exactly what the devil wanted. I became even worst. If you are bad you need God more than anyone else. Why let the devil tell you; you too bad for God. That's a lie. What we have to do is more of the things we can do. I can't change me. I cannot always change emotions right away and have you ever notice once you get in that bad mood its like roller coaster going down real fast. It gets harder and harder to switch out but God told me you can pray. You can make your body get up and go pray. You can go read the bible. You can open your mouth and say something good. We cannot get right but he can make us right. Read everyday till it change. I pray in my car. I know lots of people who think I'm talking to myself. (ʘᴗʘ✿)(ʘᴗʘ✿)(ʘᴗʘ✿) But I pray at odd times and in very informal or some may say non traditional ways. Sometimes that old mind shows up but I promise you just like me whatever the issue is even if you stumble it won't feel the same. 


Something to Declare out loud!
People will think you are talking to yourself. 
Lord I am hanging in this with you. You are doing a great work in me! I may not feel it. But I know its happening in me. 
I don't plan mistakes; but sadly they happen. 
But I am like the sun; at sunrise I rise!
I know what to do when things are good and when things are bad!
God knows my heart so I can never lie about the why; but I will focus on getting back up. 
Man may not approve; but in God I rise!
Teach my hands to war!
Teach my mind to stand!
Teach me to crucify my body.







Hebrews 2

1 We must pay the most careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away.
2 For since the message spoken through angels was binding, and every violation and disobedience received its just punishment,
3 how shall we escape if we ignore so great a salvation? This salvation, which was first announced by the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard him.
4 God also testified to it by signs, wonders and various miracles, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will.

Jesus Made Fully Human


5 It is not to angels that he has subjected the world to come, about which we are speaking.
6 But there is a place where someone has testified: “What is mankind that you are mindful of them, a son of man that you care for him?
7 You made them a little lower than the angels; you crowned them with glory and honor
8 and put everything under their feet.”In putting everything under them, God left nothing that is not subject to them. Yet at present we do not see everything subject to them.
9 But we do see Jesus, who was made lower than the angels for a little while, now crowned with glory and honor because he suffered death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.
10 In bringing many sons and daughters to glory, it was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything exists, should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through what he suffered. 11 Both the one who makes people holy and those who are made holy are of the same family. So Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers and sisters.
12 He says, “I will declare your name to my brothers and sisters; in the assembly I will sing your praises.”
13 And again, “I will put my trust in him.”And again he says, “Here am I, and the children God has given me.”
14 Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might break the power of him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil—
15 and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death.
16 For surely it is not angels he helps, but Abraham’s descendants.
17 For this reason he had to be made like them, fully human in every way, in order that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people.
18 Because he himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted
