Mary, did you know

Did you know
That your baby boy will save our sons and daughters?
Did you know
That your baby boy has come to make you new?
This child that you've delivered
Will soon deliver you
Mary, did you know
That your baby boy will give sight to a blind man?
Did you know
That your baby boy will calm a storm with His hand?
Did you know
That your baby boy has walked where angels trod?
And when you kiss your little boy
You've kissed the face of God
Mary, did you know?
The blind will see
The deaf will hear
And the dead will live again
The lame will leap
The dumb will speak
The praises of the Lamb
Mary, did you know
That your baby boy is Lord of all creation?
Did you know
That your baby boy will one day rules the nations?

HERE IS MY VOTE FOR THE BEST CHRISTIAN SONG OF THE NEW MILLENNIUM:
WHEN IT'S ALL BEEN SAID AND DONE . . .
When it's all been said and done
There is just one thing that matters
Did I do my best to live for truth
Did I live my life for You
When it's all been said and done
All my treasures will mean nothing
Only what I've done for love's Reward
Will stand the test of time
Lord Your mercy is so great
That You look beyond our Weakness
And find purest gold in miry clay
Making sinners into saints
I will always sing Your praise
Here on earth and ever after
For You've shown me Heaven's my
True home
When it's all been said and done
You're my life when life is gone
Lord I'll live my life for You
"Life is a coin. You can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once." - SPEND YOUR LIFE WISELY, ... *FOR JESUS and HIS Kingdom.* ... you'll never regret it. ... for "when all is said and done...FOR WHOM and FOR WHAT have I lived my life...?" - THAT is the number1question...and what determines your destiny in ETERNITY.

WITHOUT TRUE WORSHIP OF GOD,THERE CAN BE NO VICTORY IN WARFARE. FOR WHAT WE BLEED WHEN WE ARE WOUNDED BY SATANIC ASSAULT OR DIFFICULT CIRCUMSTANCES IS THE TRUE MEASURE OF OUR WORSHIP.
YOU SEE,WHAT COMES OUT OF OUR HEARTS DURING TIMES OF PRESSURE IS "IN" US,BUT HIDDEN DURING TIMES OF EASE.
IF YOU ARE A TRUE WORSHIPER,YOUR SPIRIT WILL EXUDE WORSHIP TO GOD.NO MATTER WHAT BATTLE YOU ARE FIGHTING.
IN WARFARE,WORSHIP CREATES A WALL OF FIRE AROUND THE SOUL.

"I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:"2 Timothy 4:7
"Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart."Hebrews 4:12

If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him? Luke 11:13
For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit 1 Corinthians 12:8
11.If any man speak, [let him speak] as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: 13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.
14 If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters.
16 Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.
17For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? {18} And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
19 Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator.

man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not
do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?"

well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a
dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in
your hearts:"

One can only be inspired if one is willing to take action and seek inspiration. Like the Nike ad that insists, “Just do it,” pushing yourself and taking action gets results. Ask yourself this question, “How do I get inspired?” Think of past inspirational moments. What were you doing? Where were you? Was anyone with you? Inspiration can come from almost anywhere, at any time and often from unlikely sources.
