Come to Me

Notes of meeting on 5 March 2019

Picture of Jesus dressed richly like a King.
Jesus took off His magnificent crown and exposed His crown of thorns
He lay down His sceptre and orb and His hands with the precious wounds were exposed.
He took off His sandals and His feet started to bleed from His poor wounds.
Lastly He took off His magnificent garment and underneath was a rough blood streaked white garment.
Jesus says:
" I your King come before you as a beggar, bring to Me the poor souls for whom I continually sacrifice My Body, My all, before the Father in Heaven.
I thirst for them, my wounds are wide open for love of them, do not turn away come to Me your Saviour. I will bind all your wounds and you will be My people and I will be your most loving King.
You are Mine paid for by My Precious Blood. Do not forsake Me by turning away.
I your Jesus pour out My Life Blood for you.
Do not listen to the purveyor of lies listen only to your most loving King.
I thirst for you, come to Me.
I weep for you, Come."


2 Corinthians 6
As God’s co-workers we urge you not to receive God’s grace in vain. For he says,
“In the time of my favour I heard you,
    and in the day of salvation I helped you.”
I tell you, now is the time of God’s favour, now is the day of salvation. 
We put no stumbling block in anyone’s path, so that our ministry will not be discredited. Rather, as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: in great endurance; in troubles, hardships and distresses; in beatings, imprisonments and riots; in hard work, sleepless nights and hunger; in purity, understanding, patience and kindness; in the Holy Spirit and in sincere love; in truthful speech and in the power of God; with weapons of righteousness in the right hand and in the left; through glory and dishonour, bad report and good report; genuine, yet regarded as impostors; known, yet regarded as unknown; dying, and yet we live on; beaten, and yet not killed; 10 sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything.
11 We have spoken freely to you, Corinthians, and opened wide our hearts to you. 12 We are not withholding our affection from you, but you are withholding yours from us. 13 As a fair exchange—I speak as to my children—open wide your hearts also. 14 Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? 15 What harmony is there between Christ and Belial? Or what does a believer have in common with an unbeliever?
16 What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said:

“I will live with them
    and walk among them,
and I will be their God,
    and they will be my people.”
17 Therefore,
“Come out from them
    and be separate,
says the Lord.
Touch no unclean thing,
    and I will receive you.”
18 And,
“I will be a Father to you,
    and you will be my sons and daughters,
says the Lord Almighty.”

Come to me

Notes of meeting on 24 July 2018

Picture of Jesus as a shepherd. He calls out to a lamb that has been chased out of the flock. This lamb had gone his own way, he stumbled many times and was bloody and in pain. the Lamb couldn't see a way out and contemplated running to a pack of wolves where he would surely be torn apart.
Jesus called to him "My son come to Me".
Then the picture changes to a young man who had led a profligate life and was so damaged by that life he no longer cared if he lived or died.
He heard the words "My son come to Me" and looked up to see Jesus in all His splendour. The young man ran to Him and was enveloped in the loving arms of his Creator. The young man felt himself relax and to be loved just as he was. The young man knelt down sobbing and poured out his heart leaving nothing out about his dissolute life.
Jesus placed His hand upon him and said "Your sins are forgiven now stand tall and continue to come to Me for I Myself will heal you and fortify you "
After this Jesus brought forth from His Heart a Host which He fed the young man and then the cup of His Blood for him to drink from.
Jesus said "Every time you feel that you may slip from the Way and the Truth come and I will feed you and fortify you for I am the Way and the Truth and nothing can come between my Love for you and your soul.
If you strengthen yourself in Me you will grow stronger and all the old ways of living will disappear.
My child, yes son I said my child, be healed. I bless you.
Jesus."

God bless you,
Stephen and Ann

Come to me

Notes of meeting on 25 July 2017

Jeremiah 3 v 11-14
11 The Lord said to me, ‘Faithless Israel is more righteous than unfaithful Judah. 12 Go, proclaim this message towards the north:
‘“Return, faithless Israel,” declares the Lord,
    “I will frown on you no longer,
for I am faithful,” declares the Lord,
    “I will not be angry for ever.
13 Only acknowledge your guilt –
    you have rebelled against the Lord your God,
you have scattered your favours to foreign gods
    under every spreading tree,
    and have not obeyed me,”’
declares the Lord.
14 ‘Return, faithless people,’ declares the Lord, ‘for I am your husband. I will choose you – one from a town and two from a clan – and bring you to Zion.
 
The fruit of repentance is Mercy.
 
James 5 v 7-11
Patience in suffering 
7Be patient, then, brothers and sisters, until the Lord’s coming. See how the farmer waits for the land to yield its valuable crop, patiently waiting for the autumn and spring rains. You too, be patient and stand firm, because the Lord’s coming is near. Don’t grumble against one another, brothers and sisters, or you will be judged. The Judge is standing at the door!
10 Brothers and sisters, as an example of patience in the face of suffering, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. 11 As you know, we count as blessed those who have persevered. You have heard of Job’s perseverance and have seen what the Lord finally brought about. The Lord is full of compassion and mercy.
 
Matthew 11 v 15-30
25 At that time Jesus said, ‘I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. 26 Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do.
27 ‘All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.
28 ‘Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.’

Notes of meeting on 13 September 2016

We praise you God, for you are a God of Might, a God of Power, a God of Mercy, a God of Forgiveness, a God of Kindness and a God of Compassion.
You are our Saviour and Redeemer.
You say "Come to Me all you are overburdened and I will give you rest. For My yoke is easy and My burden light".
Thank you Lord that you wish to share our burdens even to remove them.
Thank you Lord that you want to bring us healing and wholeness.
