He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to Him, nothing in His appearance that we should desire Him. He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces He was despised, and we held Him in low esteem. Surely He took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered Him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted. But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.” Isaiah 53, a prophecy about Jesus Christ. Heavenly Father, I thank You that You sent Your Son Jesus and even though I do not understand it, I fully believe what the Bible says. Help me today Father as I feel rejected and I am suffering emotional pain. R COR Thank You for Your word which says You have taken that pain and that suffering and You alone know how I am feeling. Thank You for Your love when I feel no one loves me, I remember that You do. Thank You for the love that took You to the cross. Thank You for the love that held You there. Thank You for matchless love that bore my sin and my shame and gives me a peace beyond all understanding in my heart that can reduce any fear I have. In my pain, help me to remember the pain and suffering others have at this holiday season, around the world and to lift them before You knowing You are the only answer. Thank You for the FAITH You have put in my heart by Your Holy Spirit to believe You are who You say You are. Amen p YE R C OR The fallen realms must become foreign to us, they were not made for us to dwell in and is why so many today are sick, miserable, poor, blind and naked regarding purity. See Rev. 3:17-19. Our call is one of coming back into a place where we can walk beside the Lord in the cool of the day, resting in the arms of our Father’s embrace. To have and to hold, from this day on as we become the Bride of Christ. Stripping away the old nature is the 30 | SHARE | MAGAZINE only way we can learn to love again. In all of Scripture, the flavor of the love of Father God is the deeper meaning. His love is and always will become the source that draws us into Him, away from the fallen realms where we’ve lost our first love. The devotion and the presence of God is more than most understand but is available to live and to dwell in daily. This was why the Lord took me into the basement of time, to reveal to me a people who had lost their first love and the impact it has had upon a fallen world. The time has come October - December 2017 to walk out of the fallen realms and follow Jesus back into the life of love that we were created to live in and all we are supposed to be. We are a people of God’s creation, a people of hope, faith and love that brings change with every step we take, that even the shadows of our past, as it was with Peter, brought healing to the sick whose lives are lost and broken and in much need of God’s love. Amen p Lyle McTeer, of CFC Ministries He is available upon request for teaching/conferences etc. Website: endtimesharvest1.com Continued from pg 11 who call you out of darkness into His marvellous light. See 1 Peter 2:1-10. YE R COR When we come to Him in Prayer we can know no matter how we are feeling Jesus has felt that Pain and not only felt it but took it on Himself. Let us pray today with that in mind; remembering the hurricane battered Caribbean countries (especially Puerto Rico that was already in financial depression) Texas flood victims and Mexican earthquake survivors. YE With so much pain around the world today in many many countries and regimes let us not just think about our own pain but let us focus today on the World... Why? For God so loved the World. John 3:16 “Who has believed our message and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed? He grew up before Him like a tender shoot and like a root out of dry ground. W PRAYER CORNER
