Who is God?

Jul26

For who is God, but the Lord?
And who is a rock, except our God,
Psalms 18:31 NASB

I am the Lord, and there is no other; Besides Me there is no God.
Isaiah 45:5a NASB

See now that I, I am He, And there is no god besides Me; It is I who put to death and give life. I have wounded and it is I who heal, And there is no one who can deliver from My hand.
Deuteronomy 32:39 NASB

Before Me there was no God formed, And there will be none after Me.
Isaiah 43:10c NASB

‘I, the Lord, am the first, and with the last. I am He.’ ”
Isaiah 41:4b NASB

Do you believe? I do!

There is no one holy like You, Lord! Indeed, there is no one besides You. There is no rock like You, God. I shall praise You forever. Glory to Your name, amen.
1 Samuel 2:2 NASB

🌹There is no one like You among the gods, O Lord, Nor are there any works like Yours. All nations whom You have made shall come and worship before You, O Lord, And they shall glorify Your name. For You are great and do wondrous deeds; You alone are God.
Psalms 86:8‭-‬10 NASB

Prophesy

May15

prophesy: to speak as a mediator between God and humankind or in God’s stead.

Pursue love, yet desire earnestly spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy.
But one who prophesies speaks to men for edification and exhortation and consolation.
1 Corinthians 14:1, 3 NASB

Pursue love so all that you do will be done in love. Earnestly desire the greater gift to prophesy because the one who prophesies enlightens and uplifts another. This one also advises, cautions, and encourages and also consoles, giving solace and comfort during grief or disappointment. And any unbeliever watching will be convicted.
1 Corinthians 16:14/1 Corinthians 12:31 NASB

By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”
John 13:35 NASB

But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or an ungifted man enters, he is convicted by all, he is called to account by all; the secrets of his heart are disclosed; and so he will fall on his face and worship God, declaring that God is certainly among you.
1 Corinthians 14:1‭, ‬3‭, ‬24‭-‬25 NASB

Holy Week – Monday

Apr3

Jesus entered Jerusalem triumphantly. . .


On the next day, when they had left Bethany, He became hungry. Seeing at a distance a fig tree in leaf, He went to see if perhaps He would find anything on it; and when He came to it, He found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs. He said to it, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again!” And His disciples were listening.
Then they came to Jerusalem. And He entered the temple and began to drive out those who were buying and selling in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who were selling doves; and He would not permit anyone to carry merchandise through the temple. And He began to teach and say to them, “Is it not written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations’? But you have made it a robbers’ den.” The chief priests and the scribes heard this, and began seeking how to destroy Him; for they were afraid of Him, for the whole crowd was astonished at His teaching. When evening came, they would go out of the city.
Mark 11:12‭-‬19 NASB

The Temple. A place to commune with God. A sacred holy place of worship. What had happened? Commercialism. Neglect. No longer a house of prayer, a place to commune and worship God. It had become a “den of theives”. A money-making place of business.
The Temple. Where God resides, takes up residence. Today, we believers are the Temple of God. What condition is your house in?

🌹God, today, as we observe Holy Monday, may our hearts turn to the worship of Jesus, our Savior. Forgive us for the condition of Your Temple as we repent of any dishonor to You, that is going on in us, Your Temple. Amen

Hallelujah! Glory to Our God.

Jan20

I will give thanks to You, O Lord my God, with all my heart, And will glorify Your name forever.
Psalms 86:12 NASB

Why?

For great is the Lord and greatly to be praised; He is to be feared above all gods.
Psalms 96:4 NASB

For the Lord is a great God And a great King above all gods,
Psalms 95:3 NASB

Thus . . .

I will give You thanks with all my heart; I will sing praises to You before the gods.
Psalms 138:1 NASB

Where shall I praise You, God?

Praise the Lord! I will give thanks to the Lord with all my heart, In the company of the upright and in the assembly.
Psalms 111:1 NASB

Praise the Lord! Sing to the Lord a new song, And His praise in the congregation of the godly ones.
Psalms 149:1 NASB

I will give You thanks in the great congregation; I will praise You among a mighty throng.
Psalms 35:18 NASB

That is one of the great things about being with a body of believers at church, singing praises and worshiping God!
“Praise You among a mighty throng”, takes me away to heaven imagining all the saints of the Lord singing praises to our God. O what a day, and eternity, that will be.

🌹Then I heard something like the voice of a great multitude and like the sound of many waters and like the sound of mighty peals of thunder, saying, “Hallelujah! For the Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns.
Revelation 19:6 NASB

Hallelujah and amen!!
Have a blessed and glorious weekend.

Glorify God

Jan3

For you have been bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body.
1 Corinthians 6:20 NASB

God, how do I glorify You in my body? By Your mercies I present my body a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to You, which is my spiritual service of worship. I pray that I will not be put to shame in anything, but that with all boldness, Jesus Christ will be exalted in my body. This is my earnest expectation and hope. I pray You will keep me from presenting the members of my body to sin as instruments of unrighteousness; but help me to present myself to You, God, as alive from the dead, and my members as instruments of righteousness to You. Glory to Your name I pray, amen.
Romans 12:1/Philippians 1:20/Romans 6:13 NASB

🌹Through Him then, let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that give thanks to His name.
Hebrews 13:15 NASB

Philippians 3:2b-3

Jun24

beware of the false circumcision, for we are the true circumcision, who worship in the Spirit of God and glory in Christ Jesus and put no confidence in the flesh,
Philippians 3:2b – 3 NASB

Glory to Your name O God!! You are worthy of my praise and worship in the Spirit and glory of my Lord, Jesus Christ.
Your love, Father, brought the true circumcision, through the sacrifice of the Son, and the circumcision of the heart by the Holy Spirit.
God, create in me a person who does not seek the praise of man, putting no confidence in the flesh, but seek Your praise alone. This I pray in Jesus name, amen.
Romans 2:29/Galatians 6:15 NASB

🌹Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit.
Galatians 5:24‭-‬25 NASB

Fear & Awe

Mar1

Let all the earth fear the Lord; Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him. For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast.
Psalms 33:8‭-‬9 NASB

Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light.
Genesis 1:3 NASB
There are multiple times God spoke and it was done throughout the Bible. Genesis chapter one God spoke all creation into being. God spoke and created mankind:
Let them praise the name of the Lord, For He commanded and they were created.
Psalms 148:5 NASB

God spoke and it was done! Wow! Should we not stand in awe of Him?

🌹Worship the Lord in holy attire; Tremble before Him, all the earth.
Psalms 96:9 NASB

From Trust to Praise

Feb9

And He said, “Certainly I will be with you, and this shall be the sign to you that it is I who have sent you: when you have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall worship God at this mountain.”
Exodus 3:12 NASB

Why are you in despair, O my soul? And why have you become disturbed within me? Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him, The help of my countenance and my God.
Psalms 42:11 NASB

God sent Moses to Egypt but He didn’t send him alone. Our God will not send us without provision to accomplish what He has sent us to do. And He will not send us alone. Hope in God and trust Him for the outcome, whatever it is you are facing.

🌹You will come out on the other side praising and trusting Him.

The Battle Belongs to The Lord

Jun17

and he said, “Listen, all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem and King Jehoshaphat: thus says the Lord to you, ‘Do not fear or be dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours but God’s. Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground, and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell down before the Lord, worshiping the Lord.
2 Chronicles 20:15‭, ‬18 NASB

🌹Surrender your fear to the Lord God today. Humbly bow before Him in worship and prayer for the battle truly belongs to the Lord!
