Let's Live A Life Of Praise Unto The Lord
Psa 117:2 For his merciful kindness is great toward us: and the truth of the LORD endureth for ever. Praise ye the LORD.
Quote
Mat 10:30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
Verses - KJV
Psa 139:1-4 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me. Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off. Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways. For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether.
My Thoughts and Comments
Do we know that the Lord knows even our thoughts? From this can we see that the Lord knows what we do when we are alone and with others? Knowing this why would we try to hide anything from Him? Are we living to please the Lord or others?
Do we grasp that the Lord knows all about us, the good and the bad? He knows what we do when we think no one is watching. He knows what we do on vacation, when we are away from those who know us. He knows what we have our mind on and the mind games we play.
A lady we met in a church we attended always dressed in long dresses and long sleeves around home and those in the church. We found that when she went on vacation she dressed opposite to that! She reasoned that it was all right because on vacation she wasn't to dress conservatively! She was living according to what others expected of her not for the Lord!
Those around us may never know what we do in private, but the Lord does. He knows the very thoughts and intents of our hearts. Even though He knows what we have done, are doing and thinking; He still offers complete forgiveness and restoration.
Dear reader, have you received what He offers and are you continually offering thanksgiving and praise to Him? What we are doing, saying and thinking, is it pleasing to the Lord? Have we read His Word, checked our life by what it says we are and what His desires for us is? Are we then living accordingly?
Beloved, the Lord knows more about us than we know about ourselves. For this reason we should continually be asking Him to search us and show us where we need to add some things and where we need to subtract some things.
Rom 6:16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? Obedience to the Word of God brings righteousness. Disobedience brings the wrath of God and death. All disobedience is sin! Don't let anyone deceive you.
It is very easy for us to allow our life to be dominated by fleshly desires and not the desires of the Spirit of God that is within everyone who has Christ in them. We must bring our flesh into subjection to the Spirit of the Lord in us. The way of flesh is death. The way of the Spirit of God is everlasting life. Our choice. Meditate on it!
Prayer
Lord God, thank You for being the good Shepherd and caring for us in everything we face. Thank You for always being with us and for us. If You be for us who can be against us. Grant us grace to always walk in faith and never in doubt and unbelief. We ask, believe we receive and give thanks in Your Name, Lord Jesus. Amen.
Please Pray For America and for your country according to 2 Chr. 7:14
