                          Saving Face
Psalm 80:3
Restore us, O God; cause Your face
   to shine, and we shall be saved!  (NKJ)

     Only the Savior can save us from the sinful condition that leads to eternal damnation.  Only the Redeemer can transform our sin-filled lives into God-filled lives that only get better and better—as in an eternity of living in the Presence of God, learning the mysteries of life and creation.  Because of the blood of Christ Jesus, we are blameless in the eyes of God, but we must live righteously before the Lord.  One of the most important areas in God’s restoration process is our sanctification, not so much our personal circumstances, because when the Lord restores the person their circumstances will almost always follow suit.  The divine restoration that we are blessed with upon receiving salvation comes from only One Source, my friends, the Holy Spirit sent by our Savior, Jesus Christ.  And throughout our restoration, God’s face shines favorably upon our everyday lives, blessing us in ways that brings hope for the future, comfort in the present, and peace about our past and this dark world we must live in before we go Home. 
     It is actually the Lord’s favor that brings all people into salvation, because His love is unconditional and His mercies are limitless.  No matter how far away from the Lord you may be, His Light will shine favorably upon all who ask, ensuring both victory and liberty from the chains of darkness that hold you captive to this evil world that is head for destruction.  Only the Lord can save us from dying in our sin.  Our conversion from a godless life-style is as divine a work as creation itself.  And with the Holy Spirit as your Helper and God’s Word as your sword of defense against the evil powers of darkness, you will be redeemed; becoming a new creation and a child of the Living God.  When you have the Lord’s face shinning favor upon your life, you will be saved no matter how deep in the darkness you have been, because nothing can trump God’s favor. 

                                      A Whisper of Hope
My Face shines favor... on those who come to Me broken and ashamed.   Search diligently in the Word I have written, for with in its holy pages you will find the Truth about who I Am, who you are, and the deception this fallen world wants you to believe.  Without the Truth, your life will be wasted and it will end in tragedy.

John 8:44
Let all the world look to Me for salvation! 
For I am God; there is no other.  (NLT)

         May the LORD show you His favor 
                    and give you His peace.
                           (Numbers 6:26)
