His Work is Perfect

Oct27

The Rock! His work is perfect, For all His ways are just; A God of faithfulness and without injustice, Righteous and upright is He.
Deuteronomy 32:4 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/deu.32.4.NASB1995

🙏God, Your law is perfect, restoring the soul. You have worked wonders, plans formed long ago, with perfect faithfulness. You are the author and perfector of faith. Righteous are You, O Lord, and upright are Your judgments. The Mighty One has done great things for me; And holy is Your name. Amen.
Psalm 19:7/Isaiah 25:1/Hebrews 12:2/Psalms 119:137/Luke 1:49 NASB1995

🌹In the days of His flesh, He offered up both prayers and supplications with loud crying and tears to the One able to save Him from death, and He was heard because of His piety.

Enduring Truth

Feb25

The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever; The judgments of the Lord are true; they are righteous altogether.
They are more desirable than gold, yes, than much fine gold; Sweeter also than honey and the drippings of the honeycomb.
Moreover, by them Your servant is warned; In keeping them there is great reward.
Psalms 19:9-11 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.19.9-11.NASB1995

My steps have held fast to Your paths. My feet have not slipped.

Jesus Came to Call

Oct29

For what purpose did Jesus come to earth in bodily form? Why would He leave His throne on high to become a carpenter’s son? Why would He allow His death?

Because of you!!!

Christ Jesus . . . although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. Being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
Philippians 2:6-8 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/php.2.5-8.NASB1995

Jesus came in obedience to God the Father for a purpose.

Is Jesus our example? Are we to be obedient to God by following in the footsteps of Jesus?

I find these words of Jesus very convicting:

I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance.” Luke 5:32 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/luk.5.32.NASB1995

Do you?

🌹Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus,

Humbled Grace

Aug2

But to me it is a very small thing that I may be examined by you, or by any human court; in fact, I do not even examine myself.
For I am conscious of nothing against myself, yet I am not by this acquitted; but the one who examines me is the Lord.
1 Corinthians 4:3-4a NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/1co.4.3-4.NASB1995

‘Can mankind be just before God? Can a man be pure before his Maker?

as it is written, “There is none righteous, not even one;
Romans 3:10 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.3.10.NASB1995

So let us put away the judgment of our brothers and sisters in Christ – the pointing fingers, the gossip, the “I am better than you” self-righteous attitude – and show humbled grace.

🌹If You, Lord, should mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand?
