Today's Edification (30 April 2024)


Hello to my holy sisters who are striving on after the Lord! 

Here's another day He gave for us to do just that! That's a blessing isn't it! Let's keep hoping in Him and resting in His strength. 


I'm sharing some older creation pictures I still have. Good, pure, and true. And add some scriptures...His pure Word. 


He clave the rocks in the wilderness, and gave them drink as out of the great depths. He brought streams also out of the rock, and caused waters to run down like rivers.
Psalm 78:15-16


In the way of righteousness is life; and in the pathway thereof there is no death.
Proverbs 12:28


Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
Psalm 46:10


He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Psalm 23:3


For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else.
Isaiah 45:18


When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue faileth for thirst, I the LORD will hear them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them. 

I will open rivers in high places, and fountains in the midst of the valleys: I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water.
Isaiah 41:17-18


O LORD, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches. So is this great and wide sea, wherein are things creeping innumerable, both small and great beasts.
Psalm 104:24-25


But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.
John 4:14


And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
Revelation 22:1



And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm. 

But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!
Matthew 8:26-27

For he saith to the snow, Be thou on the earth; likewise to the small rain, and to the great rain of his strength.
Job 37:6


Glory to God for all He has made and for His Word we have! Hope those were edifying and refreshing for your eyes and heart! 


Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.
Luke 18:17

I was pondering that scripture and how we have to be low and simple and trusting in Him, our Father. That also reminds me of how we become born into His family also. Jesus said we must be to enter, so it makes sense we cannot enter except we become as little children also. We must be made new spiritually! 

Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
John 3:3

Children cannot do many things but they need help from their parents. Let us look to the Lord for all our help as we need so very much. We know the Lord is our helper and oh how much we need Him. We need Him for everything in fact just like a young child is helpless on his own. Let us not think we can do this life on our own...we can't. 


Rejoice in the glad tidings of our Saviour sisters and share that with as many as possible that the Lord has you meet!

And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
Luke 2:10


And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers,
Acts 13:32

I know gospel means good news/glad tidings. I think in our English those meanings can be lost in the Word gospel so I was thinking I really appreciate to call it glad tidings! So few these days know what the 'gospel' even is and what it means. Well we know Jesus is the good news to the world and our only hope to follow and obey Him to eternal life and thus escaping God's wrath. If we obey Him we obviously repented to do so. And we know true belief is dead without good works. And we know the Lord gives the Spirit to those who believe/repent/obey. 

Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Acts 2:38


And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him.
Acts 5:32


Even if we don't go into all the details each time of how we can find eternal life just as there really isn't one scripture verse or passage that tells us everything we must do but it is spread out in the Word we know there are way more depths to the words...believe, repent, be born again, obey, endure etc. And we know these words have most all been corrupted in our deceived age but let us study His Word to find out the truth! So let's rejoice in the glad tidings sisters and I think I will be using that term more than 'gospel' as it really just is a translation/word thing. 

Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.
2 Corinthians 9:15

 

I guess that's about all for me today sisters! Let us keep walking in a strong faith through this faithless generation. I was thinking about the fact that there are many who draw near to God with their lips but their hearts are far from Him.

And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
Luke 6:46


Nevertheless they did flatter him with their mouth, and they lied unto him with their tongues. For their heart was not right with him, neither were they stedfast in his covenant.
Psalm 78:36-37


Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
Matthew 15:7-8


The heart is very important isn't it sisters as it will affect much. Let's do this... 

Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.
Proverbs 4:23


Press on strong sisters! Worthy is the Lamb! Don't grow weary in well doing and keep seeking after Him with a pure heart! Lord willing I will be back again here after travels back to my other place tomorrow. Day by day we keep doing the works that are in front of us...the best we can and know how.
