Greetings again sisters!
Hope you're pressing on today for the Lord and His truth! Our days are numbered and our life short even if we live to an old age. So may we redeem the time, now that we know the truth, in good works that He created us for. There is nothing we can do about the time we wasted in our past nor can we pay for our sins. We trust in His forgiveness and mercy when we repented of them and turned unto Him. We are undeserving but we must continue to endure, continuing to believe in our Saviour,and repent when we need to. We strive to keep His ways now as His children having been born of His Spirit. The Lord help us to keep faithful in this faithless and perverse generation. There is so much that could lure us away in the lusts of the flesh and so much that could discourage us if we focus on them like all the bad things happening. But may we keep our eyes on the Lord and His goodness and trust our souls into His hands.
Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator.1 Peter 4:19
The Lord's righteousness is everlasting.
Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy law is the truth.
Psalm 119:142
The righteousness of thy testimonies is everlasting: give me understanding, and I shall live.
Psalm 119:144
May He guide and lead us as we seek His ways.
The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.Psalm 25:9
For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name's sake lead me, and guide me.Psalm 31:3I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.Psalm 32:8For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death.Psalm 48:14Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory.Psalm 73:24Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.Proverbs 3:5-6A man's heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps.Proverbs 16:9To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.Luke 1:79Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.John 16:13And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.2 Thessalonians 3:5
Nothing better than to be led by our caring Creator! He knows what's best for His creation!
I was pondering on spiritual things and so share a few scriptures that mention it.
But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
John 4:23-24
I like that...the Father seeks such to worship Him!
And it is spiritual battles we face today.
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Ephesians 6:12
Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
1 Peter 2:5
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ.
Ephesians 1:3
For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
Romans 8:6
And I was thinking how people are looking to be able to 'see' things instead of walking by faith. But we know God sent a Saviour Jesus Christ and gave us His Word. We don't need to doubt He is love and He gave us His best in Christ. Indeed He gave Himself. As the Word says in the account of the rich man and Lazarus...
Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house:
For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.
And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.
Luke 16:27-31
And we today indeed all who have access to the written word of truth have much more than 'Moses and the prophets'. Indeed we have the mystery of Christ which was kept secret from the beginning of the world revealed to us! How much the Lord has given for all who seek with their whole heart! Whosever wills may come to Him! May we hear Him!
And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.Luke 9:35
Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.
For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompence of reward;
How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him;
Hebrews 2:1-3
So may we keep pressing on by faith in Him! May we do all things as unto Him and not forget the reasons why we do all we do and how we do them matters. A lot matters! So strive on in good works sisters! Love to you in His worthy and mighty name!
