I am the Lord thy God,
which brought thee out of the land of Egypt;
open thy mouth wide,
and I will fill it.
Psalm 81:10

Who gave himself for our sins,
that he might deliver us
from this present evil world.
according to the will of God and our Father:
Galatians 1:4

He brought Israel out of Egypt,
and He delivered us from this present evil world.

Can we not yet open our mouths wide and He will fill them?
Fill with our requests and praise to Him.

But he is a Jew,
which is one inwardly;
and circumcision is that of the heart,
in the spirit,
and not in the letter;
whose praise is not of men,
but of God.
Romans 2:29

Let us draw the praise of God with the Spirit's help, by keeping our hearts peeled back.

Is Christ divided?
was Paul crucified for you?
or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?
1 Corinthians 1:13

(Paul saying)

Be ye followers of me,
even as I also am of Christ.
1 Corinthians 11:1

Pray for those that put the doctrines of Paul above those of Christ
because Christ is of a different "dispensation."

Praise God that we will all be together upon His return:

In a moment,
in the twinkling of an eye,
at the last trump:
for the trumpet shall sound,
and the dead shall be raised incorruptible,
and we shall be changed.
1 Corinthians 15:52

For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again,
even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
For I say unto you by the word of the Lord,
that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout,
with the voice of the archangel,
and with the trump of God:
and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together
with them
in the clouds,
to meet the Lord in the air:
and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
1 Thessalonians 4:14-18

... They which are the children of the flesh,
these are not the children of God:
but the children of the promise
are counted for the seed.
Romans 9:8

Praise to God that there is no person on earth that can say he or she is a child of God because of his or her genes,
but only because they trust in God's promise.

These all died in faith,
not having received the promises,
but having seen them afar off,
and were persuaded of them,
and embraced them,
and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.

Who are the Israelites;

to whom pertaineth the adoption,

and the glory,
and the covenants,
and the giving of the law,
and the service of God,
and the promises;
Whose are the fathers,
and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came,
who is over all.
God blessed for ever,
Amen.
Romans 9:4-5

To redeem them that were under the law.
that we might receive the adoption of sons.

O King of nations?

But the righteousness that is of faith speaketh on this wise,
Say not in thine heart,
Who shall ascend into heaven?
(that is, to bring Christ down from above: )
Or, Who shall descend into the deep?
(that is to bring up Christ again from the dead.)
But what saith it?
The word in nigh thee,
even in thy mouth,
and in thy heart:
that is, the word of faith,
which we preach;
That is thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus,
and shalt believe in thine heart
that God hath raised him from the dead,
thou shalt be saved.
For with the heart
man believeth unto righteousness;
and with the mouth
confession is made unto salvation.
for the scripture saith,
Whosoever believeth on him
shall not be ashamed.
Romans 10:6-11

Are you waiting to see Jesus come down from heaven or rise from the dead?
He is right here, and can be experienced through His word.
You can say, "Lord Jesus I need You!"

Praise to God.

And if some of the branches be broken off,
and thou,
being a wild olive tree,
wert grafted in
among them,
and
with them
partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;
Romans 11:17

Praise God that we are part of the Jewish religion, among them and with them, in Jesus' name.

For he saith to Moses,
I will have mercy
on whom I will have mercy,
and I will have compassion
on whom I will have compassion.
Romans 9:15 and Exodus 33:19

If you have not yet
ask the God of the Old Testament,
the same God of the New Testament,
to show mercy and compassion to you (and me) a sinner.
Then we will have something to praise Him for.
