Number great held His Hand belief captured

There were some Cypriots and Cyrenians among them, however, who came to Antioch and began to speak to the Greeks as well, proclaiming the Lord Jesus. The Hand of the Lord was with them and a great number who believed turned to the Lord. The news about them reached the ears of the Church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch. When he arrived and saw the grace of God, he rejoiced and encouraged them all to remain faithful to the Lord in firmness of heart, for he was a good man, filled with the Holy Spirit and faith. And a large number of people was added to the Lord. Acts 11:20-24

I do not conceal Your righteousness within my heart; I speak of Your loyalty and Your Salvation. Psalm 40:11

Jesus went with them, but when He was only a short distance from the house, the centurion sent friends to tell Him, “Lord, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy to have You enter under my roof. Therefore, I did not consider myself worthy to come to You; but say the Word and let my servant be healed.” Luke 7:6-7

Acts 11:20-24, Psalm 40 & Luke 7:6-7

God’s grace was reaching more-and-more people gaining an angelic steam that rose above the lands surrounding Israel sharpening the knives of Salvation by the obedient surrender of men like Barnabas instilling the Light of Christ rejoicing in the Truth of Life Eternal through a revelation of faith, hope and love of Redemption. To remain faithful one must find a time daily to read the Word of God in practice searching the Spirit in prayer as you proclaim the Will of God no matter the cost no matter the strain.

God will come out of you in a beautiful grace-filled loyalty grasping your heart with the confidence of devout recognition just as the Centurion did in asking Jesus to heal his faithful servant. Your trusting of Jesus can heal the soul of you too and the others you are praying for by being faithful to His Word asking for and receiving forgiveness of past faults or ongoing battles of self desires of the flesh from fantasies formulated in staunch natures denying worthiness of His Presence under the roof our bodies call home. Amen.

Let us pray Lord instill in our souls the worthiness of accepting the forgiveness You give for Life Eternal in your Son we feel unworthy to come under our roof. Prayers for OHAM. We pray for the listeners of closerwalkmedia.com people like Doreen Moore of New Orleans. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

Antioch church grew Stephen’s persecution scatters
Cyprus and Phoenicia Word preaching gathered
Jews became proclaimers Greeks understood what matters
Number great held the Lord’s Hand belief captured

Barnabas sent by Jerusalem Church ears chattered
Rejoicing in God’s grace arriving by Love’s lather
Heart firm in the Lord faithfully remaining Mastered
Lord added number large faith Spirit Holy man good unhampered

About Thomas Joe Cruz-Wiggins

My name is Thomas Joe Cruz-Wiggins. I first recognize Christ as my Savior in all things. I am married to my best friend and Soul-Mate in Christ, Antonia Cruz-Wiggins. I am a University of Florida graduate of Public Relations, a US Navy Veteran and a Montessori Elementary School Teacher. I love life and God's help of living it! I follow the Light of Christ in everything I do! I love writing poetry about the Lord and I create a new poem from each Scripture I discern in my daily mediations. You can almost follow the poem by looking at the readings for each day. I started sharing this small yet personal scripture study four years ago when one day I was reading the bible and the Holy Spirit moved me to share the verse with a group of about 40 Christian Men in my Emmaus Ministry who get together weekly to celebrate the Lord and talk about His Truth. Since then the number of people I share my study with has grown to over 650. I enjoy an open loving dialog about anything I write and I have strived to write what I know the Lord wants me to share steering clear of offending anyone’s spiritual beliefs because I share my work with people I meet in public when I strike up a conversation about the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It took almost 2 years to begin writing what the Holy Spirit leads me to say. I believe that all Christians must unite as One Body of Christ’s Love to accomplish the joy of living with love, honor and respect. I reach out to Humanity to share His Salvation be it Baptist, Catholic, Protestant, Episcopal or any other religion or belief. I seek to mirror His Compassion, His Simpleness, His Charity and His Love. While I am Catholic, I believe we must all unite in the Lord to become One Body in Christ to bring our children back to The Church. I am humbled to share my study with you. Please feel free to comment any time. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is my Joy because I am a Disciple of His Truth. I am honored to share my Bible study with anyone you may recommend. As always, I remain, Yours in Christ, Thomas Joe Cruz-Wiggins
