Blessed be God who spoke everything into being. My soul honors and adore Him who speaks and His words stand firm, turns the counsel of the enemy to nought and makes their plans of no effect.
GOD dosnt use trickery or. Illusion to frustrate you..nor will HE use devises in lile manner.. To do so in HIS name would only bring HIS wrath on that device... GOD will not be mocked.. HE IS SUPREME
Every word that comes from the mouth of God, never come back void.the word of God accomplished what it was set out to do. In the last days there will be perilous times. Crazy day that are in front of us that we never seen or heard of before. Thank you Lord for putting up with 8 billion fools all this time.please fill all of your children with kindness ,mercy and grace. And don't let them lean into their own understanding, but ask you father, how can I please you my Lord. In reference to psalms 33.
I stand O Lord in AWE OF WHO YOU ARE! Lord God the I AM how great is your Word each day. May it speak anew to the one who reads this today, for today I may be their first day of Salvation in Christ Jesus. You are the Author of our hearts, You know us in-depth when we sin and yet your grace sustains us each day. Jesus is Coming Again to reign in judgement and renew this earth in righteousness and into EVERLASTING LIFE. PRAISE HIM FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE!
I believe there are unique times of fearing God & serving God. Sometimes the fear of God is to fear His wrath that will influence people to serving Him. I believe a heathy fear of God is important, like serving a righteous Father that is a God of justice: Psalms 2:11 , Psalms 5:7 , Psalms 15:4 , Psalms 25:14 , Psalms 34:11 , Proverbs 1:7 , Ecclesiastes 12:13, Ephesians 6:5 ,
I love the Scripture Bob quoted 'perfect love casts out all fear' but that is what Jesus did in action & it's what we do when we LOVE Him, we trust Him through all fear, because He is faithful. Psalms 23:4 , Psalms 27:3 , Psalms 33:18 , Psalms 49:5
Be encouraged, Jude 1:24
I pray God lead you to a good Church
A Disciple, The Lord takes pleasure in your righteousness as long as the Lord is your righteousness. The Lord doesn't take pleasure in your good works if you think those works save you. "For by grace are ye saved through Faith and that not of yourselves it is the gift of God, not of works,(your own righteous ability to do good and be good) lest any man should boast." Ephesians 2:8-9
Stan; The LORD "takes no pleasure" in a wicked person dying in his sins! The LORD does take pleasure in the wicked turning from his wicked ways and changing his heart to do what's good and right! What kind of false spirituality do you suppose it is, that tells the righteous that God is not pleased with his righteousness? Judge RIGHTEOUS judgment! Jesus died for our sins to take away our UNFITNESS.
Verses 16-18: The Lord takes no pleasure in our own righteous ability to be good and to do good and to be obedient. He takes no pleasure in our good works of righteousness. He takes pleasure in those who fear before Him and have a contrite, repentant spirit and who hope in His mercy and forgiveness to save them.
For the word of the Lord is right and all his works are done in truth Amen thank you Jesus for everything you are the Light of the world through you we are saved from our unrighteousness and darkness in life. I will praise you and worship you alone for you are worthy amen
"The LORD bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect." The world is full of voices, all kinds of voices longing to be heard, all pushing each other out of the way so they can have the microphone! All who are of the truth hear Jesus' voice, and follow Him. The spirit that makes men heathen strives for a world with everything INSTEAD OF CHRIST!
Lu2677: For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are The Sons of God. / For ye have not received The Spirit of bondage again to fear, but you have received The Spirit of adoption,whereby we cry, Abba,Father. Romans 8:14-15. / Seek The Lord while He is near. You to will have understanding. Eternity is for------------------------- Every.
Bruce, Psalms 33:6-11 V.8"Let all the earth fear the Lord: Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him."Awe=dread-terror,the power to inspire dread."God has the power,all things are possible with Him. Jeremiah 19:9 (inspires awe in the context of tremble with terror) I stand in awe of Him.I hope you see my other posts; His word is all I seek.May the Lord give you understanding,I hope.
Brianna: You're right. 6 months after I was Saved, I wondered why all capital letters. Discovered it's Jehovah! That's how I read it every time. There's a better understanding with more strength,when I read His Name as Jehovah. It's amazing no one knows how His Name is spelled or pronounced,seeing His Name was spelled with no vowels.
V. - " ....., to keep them alive in famine". no doubt refers to physical food, but also to a famine of the preaching of the truth of His Word. Where there is no preaching of the truth, the soul ends in death.
Vs. 21 - Just to clarify. The name being referred to is Yahweh Jehovah. In Vs. 22 you will see that it uses capital LORD. If you research why that lord is all capital, you find that the Divine Name was taken out of this Bible and replaced with LORD. When translators do this, can people apply vs. 21? Do they even know that name?
I love the Scripture Bob quoted 'perfect love casts out all fear' but that is what Jesus did in action & it's what we do when we LOVE Him, we trust Him through all fear, because He is faithful. Psalms 23:4 , Psalms 27:3 , Psalms 33:18 , Psalms 49:5
