Celebrate (He Lives)

Posted on April 5, 2015by nhiemstra

Certainly, we work hard and struggle to live a godly life, because we place our confidence in the living God. He is the Savior of all people, especially of those who believe (I Timothy 4:10)

Woah
(I know He lives)
Woah
(I believe He lives)
Woah
(I’m sure He lives)
Woah

(I’m sure He lives)
How ya’ll doin’ today?
(I know He lives)
The Savior lives
(The Savior lives)
Woah

It’s time to celebrate the Savior and His worth
Let’s shout because we know, He lives and we are served
His love has set us free our enemies defeated
If it means you would be, come on and lift up your hands

Everybody lift your hands if you know that Jesus is worthy
Open up and give Him praise let’s do it in a hurry
If you love Him let’s glorify in the song and in the dance
To know the Savior lives come on and lift up your hands

To understand just why we praise, let me tell you how it all went down
The news spread so very fast, people came from miles around
This would be the day Christ would be crucified
He took His last breath, He hung His head and He died

They took my Savior down from off that rugged cross
They laid Him in a tomb it seemed all hope was truly lost
But the third day came along and brought the rhythm of life
The stone was rolled away, an Angel proudly proclaimed

(He lives, He lives)
He lives
Christ is risen
(Christ is risen just like He said)
Our Lord and Savior
(The Lord and Savior is no longer dead)
Rejoice and celebrate He lives He lives Jesus is alive

Everybody lift your hands if you know that Jesus is worthy
Open up and give Him praise let’s do it in a hurry
If you love Him let’s glorify in the song and in the dance
To know the Savior lives come on and lift up your hands

Everybody lift your hands if you know that Jesus is worthy
Open up and give Him praise let’s do it in a hurry
If you love Him let’s glorify in the song and in the dance
We know the Savior lives come on and lift up your hands

(He lives, He lives)
He lives, He lives
Christ is risen just like He said
(Christ is risen just like He said)
Our Lord and Savior
(The Lord and Savior is no longer dead)
Rejoice and celebrate He lives He lives Jesus is alive

He lives, He lives
(He lives, He lives)
The Savior is risen just like He said
(Christ is risen just like He said)
Christ the Lord is no longer dead
(The Lord and Savior is no longer dead)
Rejoice and celebrate He lives He lives Jesus is alive

He lives, He lives
(He lives, He lives)
Christ is risen just like He said
(Christ is risen just like He said)
The Lord and Savior is no longer dead
(The Lord and Savior is no longer dead)
Rejoice and celebrate He lives He lives Jesus is alive

Red Heifer Found in Small Farm in New Jersey

Red Heifer Found in Small Farm in New Jersey [VIDEO]

“This is the statute of the law that the Lord has commanded: Tell the people of Israel to bring you a red heifer without defect, in which there is no blemish, and on which a yoke has never come.” (Numbers 19:2)

A possible parah adumah, a full red heifer, is attracting attention across the Jewish world as the cow, located on a small farm outside of Lakewood, NJ, is getting set to reach its second birthday, Hamodia reported.

An extremely rare phenomenon, according to Jewish law, the cow would only become permissible for use after its second birthday, in which it will be fully inspected for any blemishes, included hairs that are not red.

A red heifer is necessary to make ash needed for the ritual purification process to carry out services in the Jewish Temple.

“Somebody from Brooklyn called and offered me one million dollars for her, but I told him that she’s not for sale. This is a gift from Hashem (God),” owner Herbert Celler told the newspaper. “When he asked what I’m going to do with her, I told him that I’m going to be the first in line when Moshaich (the Messiah) comes.”

According to Celler, the cow was born on April 2, 2013 during Passover. The farmer explained that he has been “extremely vigilant” in making sure that the cow does not engage in any work or sustaining any blemishes, which may disqualify the cow according to Jewish law.

“My workers know that no one is allowed to even touch her,” he said.

The ref heifer, who is female, comes from a breed of cows indigenous to the Netherlands. She weights between 500 and 600 pounds. Both parents are regular black cattle, although the mother, who is named Bonnie, does have some red hairs on her back legs.

According to Cellar, livestock breeders have ambitiously attempted to create red heifers via artificial means or generic manipulation. However, the red heifer’s red-brown eye color is one sign of the cow’s authenticity.

When asked why he doesn’t name the cow like his other livestock, Celler explained: “If you have to bring her for a korban (sacrifice), I don’t want to get attached.”

“A lot of people have been coming to see her,” Celler said. The red heifer is protected by an electrified fence so prevent visitors from getting too close.

“Some rabbis from Israel are supposed to come check her out sometime soon. This is a gift to the Jewish people.”
