A Desired Life

Nov9

Who is the man who desires life And loves length of days that he may see good? Keep your tongue from evil And your lips from speaking deceit. Depart from evil and do good; Seek peace and pursue it.
Psalms 34:12-14 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.34.12-14.NASB1995

Sometimes in life we face opposition that tests us. How do we face that opposition without blowing a gasket, marring our testimony? Prayer, prayer, prayer and trust that God can and will bring peace as we pursue it and seek it with Him.

🌹For, “The one who desires life, to love and see good days, Must keep his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking deceit.
He must turn away from evil and do good; He must seek peace and pursue it.
For the eyes of the Lord are toward the righteous, And His ears attend to their prayer, But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.””

Do Unto Others

Nov5

“Treat others the same way you want them to treat you.”
Luke 6:31 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/luk.6.31.NASB1995

“It is He who made the earth by His power, Who established the world by His wisdom, And by His understanding He stretched out the heavens.”
Jeremiah 51:15 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/jer.51.15.NASB1995

Treat people the way you want to be treated.
And the greatest of these is to love as
Jesus loved, unconditionally – He died for everyone.
If Jesus lives in me will He not use me, as I surrender to His will, to bring salvation to a dying world?
How can I be content in my salvation when the world around me is dying?
How can I not love others, His creation, when He loved me, a wretched soul, so much that He left His place on high to come to a wretched soul, to offer an eternity of peace, love, co-habitation with the King of kings, Lord of lords.
What an offer – – – eternal bliss.
He is the same yesterday, today and forever.

If He so loved me should I not love the way He did?
I have been crucified with Christ, it is no longer I who live but Christ lives in me . . .

“In everything, therefore, treat people the same way you want them to treat you, for this is the Law and the Prophets.

Who is The King of Glory?

Oct30

“The earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness thereof, the world, and those who dwell therein. For He has founded it on the seas, and established it on the rivers.

Who may ascend the hill of the Lord? Who may stand in His holy place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not lifted up his soul to falsehood, nor sworn deceitfully. He will receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

This is Jacob, the generation of those who seek Him, who seek Your face. Lift up your heads, O you gates! Be lifted up, you everlasting doors! And the King of glory will come in.

Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle.
Lift up your heads, O you gates! Lift up, you everlasting doors! And the King of glory shall come in.

Who is this King of glory?

🌹The Lord of Hosts, He is the King of glory.”
Psalms 24:1-10 MEV

You Are Never Alone

Oct28

There are times in life when we feel as though no one truly cares or understands what we are going through. We may long for someone who will sit with us, listen to our concerns, and offer comfort without judging us. Sometimes, we do not need someone to solve our problems; we simply need someone […]

You Are Never Alone

Is The Spirit in You?

Oct28

. . . you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him.
Romans 8:9 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.8.9.NASB1995

So then, brethren, we are under obligation, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh— for if you are living according to the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you are putting to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
Romans 8:12-13 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.8.12-13.NASB1995

Who are you serving? Living for? Yourself, or God by the power of the Holy Spirit?

🌹“If Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is alive because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.”
Romans 8:10-11 NASB1995
