Greetings sisters!
I hope you are striving on in the Lord today! There is nothing in this world to be compared to Him! We love not this world or the things in it. It is all passing away and going to be burned up when the Lord returns. Let us strive for that which is incorruptible!
For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
Matthew 16:26
More Psalm readings here...
Here's an ant working hard (and helping me clean up the kitchen:-)
And a sister sent this picture...
Nature teaches us. How much more should we be better than the creatures? Let us be about whatever good works the Lord has for us!
Looking at God's creations with the 18 month old...
And he was saying all their names in a precious little voice. I reminded him his name was in the Bible and I asked if he would be like him when he grows up:-)
Then Daniel went to his house, and made the thing known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions:
Daniel 2:17
One of the three godly men that refused to bow down to the image of the king.
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed–nego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter.
If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.
But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.
Daniel 3:16-18
Let us be ready to suffer for our true King if He does not deliver us from the trial! His will be done!
Thinking of God's saints all around the world. One day we shall all be gathered to Him! Few though they be, God knows His own and is doing what He does in all their lives.
And they shall come from the east, and from the west, and from the north, and from the south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God.
Luke 13:29
We can pray for all the saints.
Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
Ephesians 6:18
Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.
Colossians 4:12
Here's a few scriptures from sisters today...
Our focus is the Word of God by which we live! Here's just a few more scriptures to encourage us in doing that. (Obviously we have to walk it out in practice...be doers and not hearers/readers only!)
Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
John 5:39
These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.
Acts 17:11
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
2 Timothy 3:16-17
But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
Matthew 4:4
Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.
Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery.
Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all.
Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.
1 Timothy 4:13-16
Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name.
And they shall be mine, saith the LORD of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.
Malachi 3:16-17
And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
Hebrews 10:24-25
Let us press one another on the best we can! The day is drawing nearer!
And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
Luke 21:28
Hold fast sister soldiers!
Love in Christ,
Sister Chayil
