Mar 26th Yea, to be accepted in The Beloved!Hope you are having a good day and as you read this morning you were impressed with the beauty of His Holiness. Try to imagine where the children are, how long they have been wandering, warring and waiting to enter the Promise Land. Forty years and they are not there yet.Do you remember that on the 24th we read about Moses being denied entry because of his sin, yet GOD allowed him to see the land from the mountain top.How is your concept of God influenced by how His kids act?
Psalm 68: 19-35 Tells us to be aware of what God is doing for us. Verse 19
"Blessed be the LORD, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah." If we are not depending on God, we are depending on self, other humans or false gods of our own creation. Now stop and think and meditate on that.
Deuteronomy 5:1-6:25 A review of GOD's commandments, statues and judgments is necessary for us to appreciate His mercy and GRACE. Be right first then do right.We need to review these promises and conditions and seek the leadership of The Holy Spirit for our application. Chapter 6 is the example we should follow in teaching our family about God. If every father did this daily our country would be a better place to live. Words that get my attention are:when, then, if, hear, heed, observe, walk and thou shalt. Remember verse 23"He has brought us out from thence, that he might bring us in, to give us the land which he sware unto our fathers." and see the application to your salvation experience and present circumstance.
Luke 7:11-35 allows us to see the Omnipotence of The Lord. Look for His traits, attributes and promises with their conditions. We maybe as this mother helpless, but thanks be to God we are not hopeless! Did you note the names used to ID John?
Proverbs 11:29-31 may be considered as payday is coming. There is and will always be a great gulf of separation between the saved and the unsaved. Let not pride creep into our thinking and we begin to think that The Lord really got a good deal when He redeemed us out of the grip of Satan. Thanks be to GOD for His mercy and grace. pj
