The word of God is manifest in his power, but only by the spirit can we see this power. Many believe that the acknowledgment and or worship of Christ or God is the way to be close to him. To be close to God we must be in our own spirit the piece of God that lives within us. For he is the WAY the TRUTH and the LIGHT. Amen.
David is under the care of Jehovah God, while Saul is trying to kill him, yet the Holy Spirit gives David this Psalm to comfort him, knowing that the word of God is as a rod, and a staff that the Shepherd uses to fight off all enemies that would try to harm the sheep. So David knows God will protect him in every situation, while he walks through the valley, and shadow of death, which is but a metaphor in life.
Psalm 23:3 is a powerful revelation of how praise brings God down into our situations and enforce changes in whatever directions we desire . All I need to activate my desire changes is to render heart rooted praises to God which will bring Him to step down into my desires to activate the change that I need.
In Matthew chapter5 6, Jesus took the 12 disciples upon the mountain to describe the kingdom of God. God is not of this world. The kingdom Jesus is referring to is a spiritual place where tangible physical things we feel, taste, hear see do not exist. Until I was granted eyes and ears to see and hear what God is saying to me this passage meant nothing to me. I had to cease praying for , a new car, a bigger house, and even basic necessities. I began praying for God to reveal himself to me. Because no matter how attentively I listened, no one could explain God to me. God cannot be explained, He must reveal himself. Something that happens when we stop chasing worldly things. Things of this world are not real. They will all be as dust very soon. I lost everything I own twice and I see what 's real now. Fellowship with Jesus and obedience to his commandment come first, and all else follows. And when God blesses us with things of this world we are to share with our bretheren.
All this shall be revealed in the kingdom of God to those who are worthy.There is so much that Our Father, the One and Only Messiah shall sit down to reveal and we will listen with "wows " and praises when He explains.so instead of us lobbying on useless things let us seek Him, worship Him, study Him in detail and run the race.Do not allow the accuser of men to mislead you from the Divine Truth.God is Spirit and those that worship Him shall worship Him in.........Amen
One of my favorite Psalm that I 've learned from a tender age.My late Father would repeat this Psalm every morning before breakfast, and that 's how I learned that Psalm. However, verse 11 15 really speaks to me as I often ask the Lord to forgive me of my sins, those I know of and those I not of, and to live in my heart every day. I was asked to speak at my Church on Mothers day and I was very nervous about it. I had a whole week to prepare. Every day I turned to V:15 and as the Lord to open my lips so that my mouth will show forth his praise. On that when I spoke, I surprised myself and many people thought I did so well and I showed no sign of nervousness. What a wonderful, wonderful Psalm.To God be the Glory.
This is the only way of life that will bring us safely home. Nothing and I mean nothing can hurt you if we remain in him and he in us. Stay in the word it will bring life to the reader and heal you of all that is in the world.
I can do all things through the word : by the word : and in the word : Jesus Christ which strengthens me. I receive God 's strength from His word. He makes my feet as the hinds feet that climbs mountains . He makes me to walk in high places. God always lifts up !!!! I will sing unto the Lord : Victory !!!!
Jesus truly was a Prophet, however He was Priest and King. They missed His deity and His mission. The old testament does show Christ as a reigning King, and that is completed at the cross when He said "It Is Finished ". The full effect of this will be seen at the Great white throne judgment. The Jews were looking for a Redeemer but they missed the message of the old testament. Luke 24:26 states ,ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his Glory. In other words there was no short cut, the cross was necessary for Redemption. Jesus could have set them free politically from the Roman oppression but God 's plan was much grander. The whole message of Old and New Testament is the redemption of man for a heavenly kingdom not a mere earthly one. This redemption would last for eternity!
Events by the day shows that Christians are exhibiting lack of contentment in daily living. Our generation is witnessing crazy desire for worldly materials to the point that spirituality is being relegated to the background. Oh God arise, send fire of revival into this generation as the day of Pentecost in Jesus ' name.
GOD IS REAL,HE CARES ABOUT HIS PEOPLE,SO IS A MAN S CHOICE TO LIVE FOR HIM,BUT WITHOUT HIM IS NOT WORTH LIVING.I PRAY THAT HE TEACHES ME HOW TO SERVE AND LIVE FOR HIM.I ABSOLUTELY NEED GOD IN MY LIFE,I BELIEVE WITH HIM I WILL WALK AND NOT STUMBLE.
psalm 3 showed that a rigtheous man may face series of challenges especially the one arising from home to the level that one becomes homeless.but in all these, salvation is very sure.
We all go through trials but God is always with us.Sometimes we feel we are all alone but God is always near.God hears our cries and reaching out he pulls us out of the pit of hell.He has chosen his people that will be used to enlarge his kingdom.We his people will give hope to the lost.We will say to them it 's ok sleep in peace God will watch over you.There is hope for us all.
This bible verse give me peace of mind and i feel in my heart that god protects me and my family from all harm that may come against us amen. It gives me strength to make each a sense of fullfilment, when i read this verse i feel soooooooooo good.
I love Psalm42 as the words in popular Christian song of this Psalm are what drew me to the lifestyle community and cause where I now live.But in this season of the soul also realise that I need to sing "Oh,that this was now my heart "even though I have managed to somehow go on the journey.In the wells of Baca I now ask again life-giving water of the Holy SpIrit to SPRING again.Always need Him to do this for me,and always will.Glory to the Lamb, precious Jesu,Beloved Son of the Most High.
Jesus saw their faith while their discussing and remind them of what happens if faith is at work. faith is the only weapon that a person can use in any situation.
Whatever we are going through Our GOD is able to take care of us. The Lord wants his children to have life and more abundantly. We must truly remember to call on Jesus in our times of trouble and lean not to our own understanding. May GOD Bless and Keep You!!! Amen
Take away this wicked heart in me , the bitterness, temper, anger, fear and everything that is not of you. Replace my heart of wickedness with a heart like your own. A heart of love, patience, kindness, understanding and wisdom of you oh Lord my God!
It is the will of the Father that we live by his commandments, by following his wishes only can we live a fruitful life, but in doing so we must accept the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit as the comforter allows us to be the branches that bears fruits.
When people think about Jesus, they remember he died on the cross for us. People in general do not stop to really consider all of what he really did for us in so much depth. He had a vision and a mission far beyond our human comprehension. This passage has the intensity and depth to reach hearts. It is a passage to meditate on and soak in. As we bring the good news of the Gospel to others, it needs to be mentioned for the word of God traverses unto hearts.
