GRACE UPON GRACE

ISAIAH 6 6:13 -18 AS ONE WHOM HIS MOTHER COMFORTETH, SO WILL I COMFORT YOU; AND  YE SHALL BE COMFORTED IN JERUSALEM. AND  WHEN YE SEE THIS, YOUR HEART SHALL REJOICE, AND OUR BONES SHALL FLOURISH LIKE AN HERB: AND THE HAND OF THE LORD SHALL KNOW TOWARD HIS SERVANTS, AND HIS INDIGNATION TOWARD HIS ENEMIES . FOR, BEHOLD, THE LORD WILL COME WITH FIRE, AND WITH HIS CHARIOTS LIKE A WHIRLWIND, TO RENDER HIS ANGER WITH FURY, AND HIS REBUKE WITH FLAMES OF FIRE. FOR  BY FIRE AND HIS SWORD  WILL  THE LORD PLEAD WITH ALL FLESH: AND THE SLAIN OF THE LORD SHALL BE MANY. THEY THAT SANCTIFY THEMSELVES, AND PURIFY THEMSELVES IN GARDENS BEHIND ONE TREE IN THE MIDST, EATING SWINE'S FLESH AND THE ABOMINATION, AND THE MOUSE, SHALL BE CONSUMED TOGETHER, SAITH THE LORD. FOR  I KNOW THEIR WORKS AND THEIR THOUGHTS: IT SHALL COME, THAT I WILL GATHER ALL NATIONS AND TONGUES; AND  THEY SHALL COME, AND  SEE MY GLORY. LOVE

ISAIAH 60:1-5 ARISE, SHINE; FOR THY LIGHT IS COME,  AND  THE GLORY OF THE LORD  IS  RISEN UPON THEE.  FOR, BEHOLD,  THE DARKNESS  SHALL COVER  THE EARTH,  AND  GROSS DARKNESS  THE PEOPLE:  BUT  THE LORD SHALL  ARISE UPON THEE,  AND  HIS GLORY SHALL  BE SEEN UPON THEE.  AND  THE GENTILES  SHALL COME  TO THY LIGHT, AND  KINGS TO THE BRIGHTNESS  OF  THY RISING.  LIFT UP THINE EYES  ROUND ABOUT,  AND SEE:  ALL THEY GATHER  THEMSELVES TOGETHER,  THEY COME TO THEE:  THY SONS SHALL  COME FROM FAR,  AND  THY DAUGHTERS SHALL  BE NURSED AT THY SIDE.  THEN THOU SHALT SEE,  AND  FLOW TOGETHER,  AND  THINE HEART SHALL FEAR,  AND  BE ENLARGED;  BECAUSE  THE ABUNDANCE  OF  THE SEA SHALL  BE CONVERTED  UNTO THEE,  THE FORCES OF THE GENTILES SHALL COME UNTO THEE....

MATTHEW 4:13-17   AND  LEAVING NAZARETH,  HE CAME AND DWELT  IN CAPERNAUM,  WHICH IS UPON  THE SEA COAST,  IN THE BORDERS OF ZABULON  AND  NEPHTHALIM: THAT IT MIGHT BE FULFILLED WHICH WAS SPOKEN  BY  ESAIAS THE PROPHET,  SAYING,  THE LAND OF ZABULON  AND  THE LAND OF NEPHTHALIM,  BY THE WAY OF THE SEA,  BEYOND JORDAN,  GALILEE OF THE GENTILES;  THE PEOPLE  SAT IN DARKNESS  SAW A GREAT LIGHT;  AND  TO THEM WHICH  SAT IN THE REGION  AND  SHADOW OF DEATH  LIGHT IS SPRUNG UP.  FROM  THAT TIME  JESUS BEGAN TO PREACH,  AND  SAY, REPENT:  FOR  THE KINGDOM  OF  HEAVEN IS AT HAND.  LOVE

2 CORINTHIANS 5:1-4 FOR WE KNOW THAT  IF OUR EARTHLY HOUSE  OF THIS TABERNACLE  WERE DISSOLVED,  WE HAVE  A BUILDING OF GOD  AN HOUSE NOT MADE  WITH HANDS,  ETERNAL IN THE HEAVENS  FOR IN THIS WE GROAN,  EARNESTLY DESIRING  TO BE CLOTHED UPON  WITH  OUR HOUSE  WHICH IS FROM HEAVEN:  IF SO BE THAT  BEING CLOTHED  WE SHALL  NOT BE FOUND NAKED.  FOR WE THAT ARE  IN THIS TABERNACLE  DO GROAN,  BEING BURDENED:  NOT FOR THAT  WE WOULD BE UNCLOTHED,  BUT CLOTHED UPON,  THAT  MORTALITY MIGHT BE  SWALLOWED UP OF LIFE.  LOVE
