“he shall call upon Me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.” Psalm 91:15

“he shall call upon Me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.” Psalm 91:15

when I read this, the word ‘he’ stands out. In time, more likely than not it was written as a teaching to the main individuals at that time. In the synagogues the ‘male’ was predominant. This got me to dwelling on what is…

Matthew 22:30 speaks of people after the resurrection not participating in marriage–they become “like the angels.” However, this does not mean people are genderless. The masculine, not neuter, pronoun is used many times to describe angels (and HE was like…HIS appearance was like, etc.). So there is no real indication that the angels are genderless beings.

There is nothing in the Bible that indicates people will lose or change their gender in heaven. In the book of Revelation (chapters 21-22), it seems that God is making things not just like they were in the Garden of Eden, but even better. Remember that gender is not bad–it is actually a good thing. God created Eve because Adam needed someone to complement him. Marriage (impossible without different genders), the model relationship between a man and a woman, is a picture of Christ and the church. The church is the bride and Christ is the groom (Ephesians 5:25-32).

Although it is not explicitly taught in the Bible, it seems most likely that people retain their gender after death. Our genders are a part of who we are. Gender is more than physical–it is part of our very nature and part of the way we relate to God. Therefore, it seems that gender will be perfected and glorified in eternity. It is also noteworthy that Jesus retained His gender after His death and resurrection.

Will there be ‘gender’ in Heaven? Yes, there will be male and female in Heaven. We will still retain our physical genders. However, there will not be procreation nor will we be married to our spouses anymore. We are able to derive this off of the resurrection of Christ.
“He is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He Himself will come to have first place in everything,” (Colossians 1:18).
We see from this verse that Jesus is the “firstborn from the dead.” This means he is the first one to be raised from the dead in a glorified, resurrected body. This is explained in the following verses.
“So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown a perishable body, it is raised an imperishable body; 43 it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; 44 it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body,” (1 Cor. 15:42-44).
So, we can conclude that we will follow in our resurrected bodies in the same way Jesus Rose with his. We see that he retained his crucifixion wounds and his gender.
“After eight days His disciples were again inside, and Thomas with them. Jesus came, the doors having been shut, and stood in their midst and said, “Peace be with you.” 27 Then He *said to Thomas, “Reach here with your finger, and see My hands; and reach here your hand and put it into My side; and do not be unbelieving, but believing,” (John 20:26-27).
It was Jesus who appeared to Thomas. Jesus is a man, and Thomas recognized Him. Therefore Jesus retained his gender after His resurrection. Furthermore, Jesus retained His crucifixion wounds further demonstrating He retained His physical characteristics.
So, we conclude that we will retain our ‘gender’ when we are resurrected in our new glorified ‘status’ not ‘physical’ any more but ‘spiritual’ and go to Heaven. But, as I said at the beginning of this sharing, we will not be married nor will we have any need of procreation, for we are ‘created’ beings with a purpose.

But, some might ask how this is possible since the Bible says…
“There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus,” (Galatians 3:28).
This verse is not saying there will not be male and female genders in Heaven. It is saying that “in Christ” there is neither male nor female. “In Christ” designates representation and salvation. Gal. 3:28 is saying that when it comes to salvation, gender does not matter. In addition, the phrase “in Christ” designates a doctrine known as federal headship where the male represents the descendants. This is why we have verses such as…
“for as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive,” (1 Corinthians 15:22).
“In Adam” and “in Christ” are terms of representation. Adam represented all humanity and Christ represented His people.

Heavenly Father we approach Your throne of mercy, realizing that in and through You we ALL we want, need and desire. You are our ALL. Thank You Father for The plenty You have showered upon me. I thank You for today and praise You for my yesteryear. As I progress on my journey home, be with me in ALL I do, be glorified in my going out and coming in.

By Your grace, this is a testimony filled period as we strive to Your presence in Jesus’ name, Amen

At times we have burdens! Where do we find relief? How? Why? Every time I point out The Word, there are those who do not accept it as fact. “Dreams!” They call them. Is it wrong to ‘dream’? How much more so if there is a chance that the dreams do come tru

At times we have burdens! Where do we find relief? How? Why? Every time I point out The Word, there are those who do not accept it as fact. “Dreams!” They call them. Is it wrong to ‘dream’? How much more so if there is a chance that the dreams do come true?

In studying The Word, I was touched by fact:
“Let all those that seek Thee rejoice and be glad in Thee: let such as Love Thy salvation say continually, The LORD be magnified!
And we speak truth saying: “I am poor and needy; yet The LORD thinketh upon me: Thou Father art my help and my deliverer, Amen; And we state in prayer and praise – make no tarrying, O my God. Psalm 40:16,17
Tarry=Time: This means physical ‘time’ was created by God. It may be the case that metaphysical time is infinite or that God created “pure duration” (metaphysical time) also. In the latter case, God had to be timeless.

There are so many things that we need\want, at times we ‘wait on The LORD.’ God’s time is the best time, Amen

But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day.
“But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day.

Believe! Is that not how we live?

Why do I smile?

Q: What makes you smile all the time?

When you don’t have faith, I believe for both of us. Amen

When scared, God places his cloak around us, and we have an Earthly ‘mis-understood’ calm, this is a peace which passes ALL understanding.

Hungry? Needy? Without? God supplies ALL our needs according to His Glory that blinds all. He made the Universe, there is the sun at the center of ours! He made it! Can it shine brighter than it’s Creator? To share a little more, The Sun is at the center of our Galaxy, God (as we know Him) is The center of our lives, our existence… When we are in His perfect will, our desires Spiritually are met.

Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.
Psalm 37:4

Today was filled with quiet moments of solitude focused on The LORD

A testimony of ‘time’. What is your testimony? You woke up, ate, went about your day, you are back getting ready for tomorrow… Reasons to praise The LORD!

Were you moved to say, do, not speak (be silent), pray for and about something? You spoke to your Father. It was not so difficult, was it? At times it is difficult to believe that The Essence that instituted life and made the universe can be “spoken with!”

There is a part of us that may hold back; “What will people say?”, “What am I doing?”, “Is this right?” Hold up! I did not call Him “Friend” but rather “Father.” Can you be a ‘friend’ to and with your Dad? With time and advance in age, experience and achievements it becomes easier. But, he is still your Dad, I am moved to say “Daddy”, but we know that is an infantile way of referring to male parentage, why? Matthew 23:9 “ And do not call anyone on Earth ‘father,’ for you have one Father, and He is in Heaven.” This is complex; phonetically in the English language there is a difference between “father” and “Father.” Going back and examining the original text “who I came from”, “a part of who I am” is a brief description of the original translation. Does “Creator” make a difference? We can look at this briefly referring back to it’s initial usage through the ages, but we DO come from a source to which we are journeying, Amen

So, I will ask, how was your day? Time for testimonies. “You won’t believe…”, “This happened…”, “That happened…” I believe you! Pray tell.

You are supposed to share.

It has seemed good to me to show the signs and wonders that the Most High God has done for me. Daniel 4:2

But in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect. 1 Peter 3:15

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” Acts 1:8

Oh give thanks to the Lord; call upon his name; make known his deeds among the peoples! 1 Chronicles 16:8

Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom He has redeemed from trouble. Psalm 107:2

And they have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they loved not their lives even unto death. Revelation 12:11

Father, I praise You for today, the blessings, my life, ALL that has happened. Father, I give You glory, praise and adoration. Where I stepped wrong, I confess and ask that You forgive me as I allow passing blows to roll off. They are temporary and in You, I have eternity, teach me Love that I may shine You in all my ways, Father I ask for comfort as I rest, I am all Yours; take me, use me, fill me with Your Spirit, Amen

Need we say more?

While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.

Psalm 146:2

Prayer for those that want, the hungry, the needy. That they receive bountifully as they keep their eyes on Jesus, The Author and Finisher of our Faith, Amen

Father LORD, You are The God of ALL. At times we may not understand Your plans, Your ways, but we humbly come before You and lift these people up before You. Knowledge of You is EVERYTHING. Here in this life we need food that

we may obtain nourishment. With the Isrealites you provided Manna, this had never been done prior. Father, I stand in agreement with my brethren that You provide for them. Allow Your Word to be spread out amongst they they know You, Trust You and realize they NEED You. Father, we commit their well being and Love, care and plenty as they turn their gaze and by Your grace, keep it fixed on You, we pray jointly in Jesus’ name, Amen

Do it!
