Greetings sisters!
Here is yet one more day to seek first God's kingdom and righteousness. I hope you are all striving on, seeking Him!
But if from thence thou shalt seek the Lord thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.
Deuteronomy 4:29
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Hebrews 11:6
May our whole lives be dedicated to God and living to seek and please Him. We cannot hold on to any part for ourselves. It's either all or nothing. We know what Jesus said about the rich young ruler who had one thing he couldn't surrender. We can ask the Lord to help us see what we perhaps can't even see in our lives.
Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.Psalm 139:23-24
Praise God! We are blessed to be able to see good things in a dark world.
Things like this are a common sight this time of year on our walks here...
Of course the little 3 year old wants to know what things are in life. We tell him it's just garbage in people's yards (as he doesn't understand of course and is so innocent, and such things are not suitable for children). So foolish people are to be dabbling with death and spiritual darkness. But I tell myself it's no surprise really as these people are children of the devil.
Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
John 8:44
And so we can also see the truth of the churches out there who participate in such pagan practices. We know the churches/denominations are not of God and so it's becoming more and more obvious how rotten to the core they really are. But God's true ekklesia (often poorly translated as church in the bibles) still remains true to God and His truth and light...rejecting all evil and the appearance of it.
And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
Ephesians 5:11
Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. Abstain from all appearance of evil.
1 Thessalonians 5:21-22
Such a beautiful day yet again...but we rejoice and be thankful in each one no matter the weather!
And yes you are seeing a lot of pretty autumn leaves lately...but maybe that will change to snow soon:-) It's all His creations to marvel at and give Him glory in and I don't get tired of it!
And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.
Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest.
Revelation 15:3-4
Hold fast to the truth sisters! And let us have no other gods before Him...of any sort.
Love in Christ,
Sister Chayil
