Jesus and His Transfiguration

NEED A FACE LIFT? Imagine having your face changed in the blink of an eye. Jesus prayed (while his friends slept. Luke 9:32) He lifted his face to heaven and was transfigured. Methinks it was like spiritual makeover or a divine facelift. Transfiguration means a change has taken place. The change happened as his friends slept. They woke up to see God's glory and hear God's voice. Upon seeing Moses and Elijah standing with Jesus, Peter offered to build shelters for them as if they were in a camp out. Human nature often responds to the supernatural with a natural solution. Transfigurations of human beings are supernatural occurrences that cause a greater Christ-like character in the one whose face was lifted to God's glory. Start lifting your face to glory. Just sayin….. 🕊️✝️🕊️ "As He was praying, the appearance of His face changed, and His clothes became dazzling white." ‭‭ Luke‬ ‭9‬:‭29‬ ‭HCSB‬‬ 🕊️✝️🕊️ Thanks for your time. Go do something nice for somebody. Jesus loves you and so do we. #GodStoriesWithBiblebob #BibleShortsWithBiblebob #ywap4Christ

The Second Taste of Death

Matt 16.27-28 " For the Son of Man is going to come in the glory of his Father with his angels and will then repay every man according to his deeds. Truly i say to you, there are some of those who are standing here who WILL NOT TASTE DEATH until they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom." "I assure you: If anyone keeps My word, he will never see death — ever!" ‭‭John‬ ‭8‬:‭51‬ ‭HCSB‬‬ "But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor, that He by the grace of God should taste death for every man." Hebrews 2:9 There is a death that never dies. An eternal death. A wretched doom agonizing in the realm of the dead, hades or more commonly known as hell. I believe the death Jesus was talking about is the second death that happens after the physical body dies and a person who was absent from a relationship with Jesus while they were alive faces a second death forever in hell versus forever life in heaven with our Savior. It would be wise to get to know Christ personally before you die or you may die again. Accept Jesus, be born again and live again.

Filling the Father Hole In Your Heart

Filling the Father-Hole There's a father hole deep and wide in your heart. It opened up when your dad was a no show right from the start. Every Father's Day is like salt in an old wound. Fatherless is an island on which you've been marooned. The hole in your heart won't be filled by holding things of human design. Hope won't be found clinging to a tattered piece of twine. Forgiveness is a rope between heaven and earth. Your Father in heaven wants to give you a new birth. He's a Dad who sacrificed His Son so that you might live. Jesus in death on a cross spoke the word forgive. Father forgive them for they know not what they do. Knowing how to be a father, your dad didn't have a clue. You can fill the father hole in your heart this very day. Wholeness, healing and peace will only come one way. Man was made in the image and likeness of God our Maker. Turning from God, man's image as a father turned into the likeness of a faker. You've left the old rugged cross, like your father, on a hill far away. The father hole in your heart remains stuck in the miry clay. Peace like a river flows only through the shed blood of Christ. The gigantic cost of unforgiveness is sinfully high priced. People who don't know what they're doing are doing the best they know how. The burdens you carry are only as heavy as God will allow. Your Creator has struggles designed especially for you. Give your unforgiveness to Jesus, his words are always true. Your Father in heaven will never leave or forsake you. We're all sinners and sojourners just passing through. Time is of the essence, make a decision this very minute. Heaven's an eternal place that requires forgiveness to be in it. If you're wanting for an apology, well here it comes. From the Master's table, please accept His crumbs. As a member and representative of manhood and fatherhood, I do hereby apologize. Please accept my offer as a sacrifice and may healing from the Sun of Righteousness arise. May the father hole in your heart be glazed over with forgiveness and filled as a cup overflowing. May your prayers of affliction and sorrow stretch like uplifted hands to the One who is all knowing. In Jesus name. Amen. An apology is admitting a wrong and the action of trying to make things right. In the natural that's not always possible, but in the supernatural- all things are possible with God. Sometimes an apology is accompanied by restitution. The restoration of your relationship with God is greater than any restitution you can receive from man. My credibility as a forgiven man comes from a long list of things that I've been forgiven for. The residue of worldly things that I've been dipped in has been dissolved by the blood of Christ. His blood has coagulated with mine to heal my wounds. By His stripes and shed blood for the remission of my sins I have been redeemed and saved from hell. I can apologize because I have empathy and compassion for the hike in your heart. I can apologize because as a man I bear some of the blame. I can apologize because the Bible says we're all made in the image and likeness of God and I recognize when we haven't honored that image and likeness in each other.

Dancing & Beheading

Dance Before A Beheading Once upon a time a little girl danced to please a king. Her dance was so beautiful, the enraptured king promised to give her anything she wanted - even half of his kingdom. The little girl had no idea what to ask for, so she whispered in her mommy's ear, "What should I ask for mommy." The woman the little girl trusted most in the world was ready with an answer. "Tell the king you want him to chop off the head of John the Baptist and bring it to you on a serving dish." The little girl happily danced her way back to the king and expressed her desire for a man's head on a platter. The king sent his executioner to the dungeon who promptly beheaded John. He brought back John's head on a serving dish and presented it to the girl who took it to her mother. Evil. Evil woman. Evil king. A little girl used by Evil. This story is just pure Evil. And yet - as macabre and vile as this true story is, the hated of truth remains. Evil still repeats itself today. The big picture is this: "A bitter woman with a Hatred of Truth thought killing the Truth Teller could silence the Truth." The Mother with the Dancing Daughter of Death had their moment of dreadful fame. They took disregard for human life to the darkest degree. Methinks they most likely danced into the dangers of hellfire. Beheading Truth is defacing the image and likeness of God. The head of a beheaded man on a serving platter is the devil's graffiti on the human heart. It leaves a dirty mark on one's soul. The Truth about Truth is this: Truth can't be killed. Truth never dies. Truth will never leave. Truth can only be suppressed for a while. Truth can't be hidden forever. Truth is never hidden from God. Truth has a limited hiding space, it's always revealed at the right time. Truth is unchanging. Truth is more powerful than a lie. Truth reveals the character of Christ. John the Baptist's birthday is celebrated on June 24 - exactly six months before the birthday of Christ is celebrated on December 25th - Christmas. John was the boy who leaped in his mother's womb when his mom met Mary, the mother of Christ. John's death was the beginning of an acceleration in the ministry of Jesus and the ultimate journey unto His own death on a cross. The Way, the Truth and the Life cannot be killed. Jesus is the Truth. Yep, be like Jesus. ✝️✝️✝️ "When Herod's birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced for the guests. She pleased Herod so much he swore to give her whatever she wanted. But the girl's mother told her to say, "Here on a serving plate I want the head of John the Baptist!"" ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭14‬:‭6‬-‭8‬ ‭CEV‬‬ ✝️ "Jesus told him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." ‭‭John‬ ‭14‬:‭6‬ ‭HCSB‬‬ ✝️✝️✝️ Thanks for your time. Go do something nice for somebody. Jesus loves you and so do we. #GodStoriesWithBiblebob #BibleShortsWithBiblebob #ywap4Christ #JLYASDW

God Stories With Biblebob (Ep7) A Healing Message From A Suicide Survivor

This is an incredible God Story of a woman who learned to be humble and teachable in a long process of healing. Her story of not wanting to be alive anymore began when she became fatherless around 5 or 6 years old. She felt like Dad didn't stick around because she wasn't valued. The father hole in her heart was just beginning. After multiple suicide attempts and many self-destructive behaviors, a Christian woman showed love for her in a way she hadn't experienced before. In an interesting twist to the story, the young woman whose name is Fox, had a dimmed vision as far as colors were concerned. After she gave her life to Christ, the colors became vibrant. After a period of sliding back into her destructive way of life, the colors dimmed again. When asked what led her to stop walking with God, she said she stopped being teachable. Her mind and heart became hardened. Fox says the most dangerous words in the world are, "I've got this." It means that you think you're strong enough on your own without God and the recovery programs that helped save her life. Stay teachable people! Fox is currently attending Passion Vineyard Fellowship in Cottonwood, AZ. Fox knows that it's scary accepting love, but it's worth the effort. We are all loved by a Father in heave who values and cherishes us. He will never leave us. There's one thing I forgot to mention, Fox was brought up as an Atheist. She knows how long a road that life can be. She also knows how healing can happen. If you're struggling with suicide thoughts, please get help. You are a valuable human being with a future purpose.
