His Star, His Purpose, His Glory
STAR
Numbers 24:17
"I shall see Him, but not now;
I shall behold Him, but not nigh:
There shall come a STAR out of Jacob,
and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel,
and shall smite the corners of Moab,
and destroy all the children of Sheth."
Matthew 2:2
"Where is He that is born King of the Jews? For we have seen
HIS STAR in the east, and we have come
to worship Him."
PURPOSE
Matthew 1:21
"And she will bring forth a Son, and
you will call His Name Jesus,
because HE will SAVE His people
from their sins."
Luke 2:10-11
"And the angel said unto them, 'Fear not:
for, behold, I bring you TIDINGS of GREAT JOY.
which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day
in the city of David a SAVIOR,
which is CHRIST THE LORD."
John 3:16
"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only
begotten Son, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH ON HIM
SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE."
Isaiah 9:6
"For unto us a child is born,
unto us a Son is given,
and THE GOVERNMENT shall be upon His shoulders.
And He will be called WONDERFUL, COUNSELOR,
THE MIGHTY GOD, THE EVERLASTING FATHER,
THE PRINCE OF PEACE."
Matthew 28:18
"ALL AUTHORITY
in heaven and earth has been given to Me."
GLORY
Revelation 5:12-13
"In a loud voice they said: 'Worthy is The Lamb
that was slain to receive POWER and RICHES
and WISDOM and STRENGTH
and HONOR and GLORY and BLESSING!'
And I heard every creature in heaven,
and on earth, and under the earth and in the sea,
and all that is in them, saying,
'To Him who sits on the throne,
and to The Lamb,
be PRAISE and HONOR and GLORY and POWER
forever and ever!"
John 8:54
"Jesus answered, 'If I glorify Myself, my glory means nothing.
The One who GLORIFIES Me is My Father,
of whom you say, 'He is our God'."

Crown Him with Many Crowns
CROWN HIM with MANY CROWNS
CROWN of LIFE
Revelation 2:10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer : behold , the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried ; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.
James 1:12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried , he shall receive the crown of life, which The Lord hath promised to them that love Him.
2 Timothy 2;12 If we suffer , we shall also reign with Him: if we deny Him, He also will deny us:
CROWN of LOVING-KINDNESS
Psalm 103:4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with loving-kindness and tender mercies;
Psalm 63:3 Because thy loving kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish , but have everlasting life.
Hosea 2:19 And I will betroth thee unto me for ever; yea, I will betroth thee unto me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in loving-kindness, and in mercies.
Jeremiah 32:17-19 Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee:Thou shewest loving-kindness unto thousands, and recompensest the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them: the Great, the Mighty God, the LORD of hosts, is his name, Great in counsel, and mighty in work: for thine eyes are open upon all the ways of the sons of men: to give every one according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings:
CROWN of GLORY & HONOR
Psalm 8:4,5 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honor.
CROWN of ANOINTING OIL
Leviticus 21:12 Neither shall he go out of the sanctuary, nor profane the sanctuary of his God; for the crown of the anointing oil of his God is upon him: I am the LORD. (regarding the high priest)
CROWN of KNOWLEDGE
Proverbs 14:18 The simple inherit folly: but the prudent are crowned with knowledge. (all of Proverbs is a discourse on wisdom, defining what is wise and what is foolish. Prudent means "mentally putting together". [love that], which is the definition of learning. Therefore, the prudent person is the one who learns wisdom and puts it into action)
CROWN of RIGHTEOUSNESS
2 Timothy 4:8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which The Lord, The Righteous Judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love His appearing.
CROWN of ROYALTY (Grace & Favor)
Esther 2:17 And the king loved Esther above all the women, and she obtained grace and favor in his sight more than all the virgins; so that he set the royal crown upon her head, and made her queen instead of Vashti.
CROWN of GLORY (the LORD IS)
Isaiah 28:5 In that day shall The LORD of hosts be for a Crown of Glory, and for a Diadem of Beauty, unto the residue of his people. (The Lord is our Crown of Glory. How cool is that?)
CROWN of SOUL WINNER
Philippians 4:1 Therefore, my brethren dearly beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved.
("dearly" implies at great cost) Jude 3 says we are to 'earnestly contend' Ephesians 6:12 we 'wrestle against'
We are not passive Christians. We are fighters. We fight for the salvation of our families and friends. They are our crown, also. Our knees bow only to The Most High God and none other. We fight our battles on our knees with our hands clenched in prayer; our hearts are set on the deliverance of our moms and dads, sisters and brothers; strangers, friends and enemies. We are immovable in our desire to see the Salvation of the Lord reach those who are lost and wandering in the darkness of sin. And we encourage each other in this goal.
At great cost. What is it worth to you to see someone saved? It cost Jesus His will and His life. He surrendered His will and His life, that we might have salvation. How much are you willing to give up? With Jesus it was
ALL OR NOTHING

My Jesus Walked
My Jesus Walked
And God said, "Let there be light."
and there was Light.
And the Light said,
"I am the Way, Follow Me.
I am the Truth, I'll set you free.
I am the Life lived eternally.
I am the Son
of the One
and only God."
My Jesus walked out of glory
into a world shamed by sin.
He turned His back on His homeland,
and ransomed us for His own.
And God said, "Let us make man
in Our own image, after Our likeness,
with authority, dominion."
and man said,
"I was afraid, so I ran and hid
myself from Your glory,
'cause of what I did.
I could not face You,
in my condition,
for Lord You are holy,
perfect and true."
My Jesus walked out of glory
into a world shamed by sin.
He turned His back on His homeland,
and ransomed us for His own.
And God said, "This is My Son,
My Beloved, indeed.
In this My Son,
I am well pleased."
and the Son said,
"This is the day,
My kingdom is near.
Repent of your sins,
Bring yourself near."
My Jesus walked out of glory
into a world shamed by sin.
He turned His back on His homeland,
and ransomed us for His own.
He ransomed me for His own.
