Greetings sisters!
God blessed us with another day...I'm back writing and edifying and you may be back reading and being edified! It's another day to choose Him and His ways over our flesh or the world's ways! Let's keep striving in this even if so very few are and even if we find ourselves alone one day. It's the Lord we are living for and we believe He is all He has said He is in His Word and will do all He has said and promised. Hope you're all striving on and your Titus 2 works are going well.
Next scripture reading chapter for you...
Thankful for His Word.
I'm sharing a few more scriptures to edify from my study on fear in His Word...
O that there were such an heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my commandments always, that it might be well with them, and with their children for ever!
Deuteronomy 5:29
And now, Israel, what doth the Lord thy God require of thee, but to fear the Lord thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the Lord thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul, To keep the commandments of the Lord, and his statutes, which I command thee this day for thy good?
Deuteronomy 10:12-13
And I know I will find we are to fear Him in the NT too so it's not something that has gone away for us today.
And I thought this one was an interesting one also.
And the officers shall speak further unto the people, and they shall say, What man is there that is fearful and fainthearted? let him go and return unto his house, lest his brethren's heart faint as well as his heart.
Deuteronomy 20:8
And today we are in a spiritual battle are we not and so we don't want to be hanging out with fearful 'soldiers' in this very important battle of eternal life or death, right sisters?!
(Thank you sisters for that picture...one for the picture and one for the scripture added:-) That scripture reminds me that we have business to do for the Lord and we don't want to get sidetracked do we. We too are passing through this land as strangers and pilgrims so we don't want to be caught up in any allurement of the world do we sisters.
Reminds me of this one too..
No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
2 Timothy 2:4
Yep we've got important work to do so let's keep our mind on the task at hand and keep setting our faces like flint and marching on to please the One who has called us as we seek His kingdom and righteousness first!
Hold fast sister saints as good sister soldiers!
Love in Christ,
Sister Chayil
