Absolutely!

We have a lot of focus on People...what their reward is for being a Member in Christ's Church...
But the Other Side is... what God Gets???

Every man IN Christ IS;
Gods Inheritance.

I don't know one person who would want to miss out on his own inheritance.

Pretty Confidant...God desires All men to be His Inheritance...Sad, I think that will not be the case.
People are selfish... including probably many or most believers. They consider my inheritance, my salvation and my unending life and my blessings first... Wrong priorities!

"Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness..." If we do this God may indeed reward us but anyone seek to receive the rewards and/or to avoid the punishments/curses/chastisements first is confused in how he sets his priorities.

"For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints." I Cor 14:33

It's an odd thing upfront...
But it is Spiritual and Natural concepts to consider oneself first.

God definitely considers Himself First and Above All.
Men definitely do the same.

Digging deeper-
What exactly WILL any...God or man DO to prove himself WORTHY to BE Considered FIRST?

Men, set crowns on their heads, deserving because they declare their bloodline Nobel.

Men compete in Contests, and are accounted First by a race or score finish.

Some men participate in a gang of men against one man, and declare themselves First.

FEW men, literally give their own life for another to Live.

God, the infinite God Almighty, Prepared a Body in the "Likeness as a man, For His Word to be Slain by men...Expressly to Show men...No matter...

Satan, a spirit who had slain the Word of God (before mankind was created)...
And mankind, who has slain the Word of God on numerous occasions...
• Every lie against Gods Word...Is a killing of God Word
• The Word of God SHALL NEVER be Overcome with a permanent Death.

pss 119:
[89] For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.

1 Peter 1:
[25] But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.

Yes our Lord God Almighty's Word is First, Above, Everlasting.

And WHEN a man puts Gods Word in his own mouth....that is a man who is on the path of learning to be "in Gods LIKENESS"

God Bless,

Amen. And WHEN a man lays down his Life For God With Jesus...Christ is the Power of God to give life Again.

1 Cor 1:
[24] But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

•Blood pressure dropped again during the night.
•Did another MRI looking for suspect vein leak cause.
•Found a vein leak near her bowels.
•Small and opted to treat with meds.
•Gave her additional blood, less than pint.
•blood pressure returned to normal.
•continuing to monitor.
•Blood leaked will cause discomfort until it is absorbed by the body.

My goodness. Sitting here in my comfortable home with the sun shining in through the windows, the birds chirping merrily outside... And then I read this. Far out. I have no words. So sorry your niece is going through so much suffering. Am certainly praying.
On another note regarding the accompanying patient taking the burdens of others, my wife's 70yo aunty had a similar ministry... She endured the labor pains of young mothers. My wife had no pain the first three births of our children. My wife had little idea of the imminence of a birth... She was playing soccer with us on the front lawn the afternoon before our first born. She woke me up at about 5 in the morning to take her to the hospital, baby was born by 6.

BECKY- is my niece.

She was diagnosed in her teens with LUPUS.
AND has for years had one health issue affecting another part of her body causing new health issues.
Treatments have routinely been treating Symptoms for stabilizing her strength of Symptoms, for Doctors to address the Underlying New Issue.

The most current events in the last several weeks is a Large blood clot near her heart in the Vein that returns Blood to the heart.

•Surgery was attempted several weeks ago. The Vein became ruptured.
•Surgery stopped.
•Sent home.
•Waiting for rupture to heal.
•Coordinating, Doctors for Team to conduct another surgery attempt.
•While Waiting.
•Another Vein rupture in brain.
•Stroke, hospitalized.
•In hospital for weeks, Treating Pain, monitoring.
•Treated with blood thinners.
•Doctor team organized.
•Surgery, Yesterday.
•Routing Vein in Groin to heart, Removed Blood Clot...Stent
•3 AM, blood pressure crashed 50/0.
•2 units of blood.
•MRI to find this new internal bleed.
•locate bleed VIA MRI, near intestinal gut.
•Emergency Surgery ...Presently (Wed ), NOT out of Surgery Yet.
• Concern...Already in weakened state.
• Veins notably compromised, having had Blood Thinning Treatmens, now potiental more complications.

It's been one issue after another, immediate treatment of Symptoms;
(Severe headaches, Bones deteriorating literally crumbling, severe joint pains, lost sight for days, heart has stopped, shocked to start, unstable blood pressure, immune system compromised, multiple surgeries, in wheelchair for a year, exhaustion) ...
And always (catch 22) for the Symptoms to stabilize to treat the Underlying Issue, when the Symptom treatments, compromise treating the Underlying Issue treatment.

She has been on that rollercoaster for years, but you would never know BY her demeanor and cheerful pleasantness...that she is in constant agony.

She is a believer, but has been prevented from having visitors, a prayer circle with and for her.

• Please consider Praying for Gods Touch of Comfort and Miracle Healing Power for Becky.

Thank you kindly.

Praying our Father will touch her body and make it whole again....also praying that He will give her an increase of faith to believe for her healing....
The woman with the issue of blood declared to herself that if she could just touch the hem of His garment she would be healed...and when she did she was healed.
The Centurion asked Jesus to heal His servant...Jesus said take me to him...the Centurion said no...just speak the word and I know it will be done. That same hour the servant was healed....
I declare the Power of God to be present and perform a miracle of healing in Jesus Name..Amen!

* Everything went haywire again.
* Labs counts are all off / low.
* Arteries in neck and groin stressed from previous surgeries this past month.
* clotting and thinning blood, an issue.
(Trying to treat one, exasperates treating the other)
* veins still springing leaks in various body parts.

* Leaking veins sending blood to her body.
* Gave her 10 UNITS of blood.
(Human body has typically 6 units of blood)

* presently IN SURGERY again Under X-RAY assistance.
* Trying to insert and artificial Artery in groin,
(Femoral Artery).
* Hope surgery a success.
* IF successful, INTENT is to do a series of
5 sessions, of removing all blood, cleaning it, and returning to her body.
(Similar to dialysis).

* Her condition is very Critical.
* On 24-7 watch.
* Exahausted, sore, in pain, Low spirits.
