Romans 1:1-2 references the scripture wherein GOD said, I will send you pastors and teachers after mine own heart. Paul's calling was a call of election by the WILL

Notice in verse l, GOD reveals HIS plans of destruction to HIS servants, not to all. Before HE destroyed Sodom, HE revealed it to Abram (Abraham); before the birth of John the Baptist and Jesus, HE revealed it to Elizabeth and Mary. Jesus said, "My sheep hear my voice and another they will not follow." HE has an unmistakable sound and quality to his voice. You can also see HIM when HE speaks.

The Psalms verse help me when I need the to know that God is protecting me and there is no need for me to fear anything and when I need comfort and assurance. Amen

Rev. 20:11-21 - GOD the Avenger extends HIS invitation to the Great Supper for all the fowls of the air

I got saved by my savior March 1976. I will remain until the end. He has done more for me then I can even think !!!!!!!!!!!

So true!

GOD's word will not return unto HIM void, it will accomplish in that to which it is sent. Rev. 19:2 - When GOD speaks, it is purposed and understood that it is accomplished. It waits for the manifestation to reveal it to man. GOD is not man, HE will avenge HIS people because vengence belongs to HIM and not to man. HE has declared: I am coming, not as savior this time but, with a vengeance.

Rev.18:3;20-24, especially vs. 21*: See Luke 17:2, Matt. 18:6, Mark 9:42 "It were better for him if a millstone were hung about his neck, and he were cast into the sea than that he cause one of these little ones to sin". I say again, GOD will not change or compromise HIS word. What society allows is not approval from GOD. GOD will never go against HIS word. HE'll bring to pass what HE's said.

Read Rev. 18:5-18 and you will certainly recognize the endtime Babylon; I do. With all of her arrogance

Rev. 18:5-8 - GOD said HE wouldn't remember the repentant sins of a sincere heart; but in verse 5, HE says, to the wicked nation, that HE has remembered their sins

When I think about ps.126, I think about sowing God's word into the life of others and being able to rejoice when the word begins to manifest itself in their lives. What joy to see someone give their life to Jesus....

I think it shows how in the beginning Jehovah God had mercy on Adam and Eve,and how to not take people or God for granted in any way cause you will need both of them.

Come onto me and I will give you rest.
Jesus Christ is our rest. Amen

i havent been going to church cause i work seven days but thats no excuse cause all churches have evening services.I feel like ni have let god down but im trying to correct things cause i know i need to be in the house of the lord.I was brought up in church and i have strayed away for a long time but those of you thats reading this im asking you to pray for me

I love this or these proverbs chapter 1; and I read it often at times sometimes.

God works in mysterious ways

Most of the modern church is living in deception. May the LORD show HIS mercy and grace to lift the scales from their eyes.

Amen we can only grow in Jesus if we obey him in everything he has told us in his word and in that we will be bless praise the Lord Jesus.U will No them by their Fruits watch and pray.

God reminded us even we are busy to our daily life we must spend and dedicate our time to God and meditate God's words everyday then all the desire of thine heart will be added if we put God first into our life. God will take care of everything for his burden is light and thy yoke is easy. Only thru Jesus we can get Freedom abd Favor we just need to Praise him and trust his Will Amen

Love Psalms. It is very enlightening.

The verse 9 caught my attention so much that I can't stop meditating.As Christians what good would be remembered of us by our fellow Christians and heaven as well. Does our good work please God? That is the question we should ask ourselves.

Sonia P
Psalm 91 is one of inspiration and communion with the Lord, who we can always depend on for personal consolation, protection, deliverance, hope, and all the goodness Jesus promised us. I encourage everyone to read and meditate on this Psalm daily.
It has blessed my family.
GOD bless you.

Regarding the 1 John 4:12 verse, there were people and apostles who obviously saw Jesus, the Son of God, the 2nd person of the Trinity with their own eyes, so this can not mean that. However, God said to Moses not to look at him, because he would not be able to stand the view. I surmise it is God's full glory that no one has seen or can see in the fallen human state, because no one could stand it and live. There can be no sin in the presence of God Jesus emptied himself by becoming man besides God to take on our sins .

6:5-6 Do not draw attention to yourself, praying out loud and repetitive. Pray with humility and reverence, and God will draw nearer to you, hear you and bless you.

Read (again) the story of Deborah and take note of what she said to Barak. She WAS NOT to lead God's army, Barak was, but he was one of the faithless 'men'. It's plain to see Deborah didn't want to go, but to save God's people - she did.

To J, Smith - The 8 days weren't wasted; God was in control of the situation, not man. God (Jesus) had His purpose in Thomas. There is nothing on this earth that MY God doesn't know about and isn't in control of. His purpose is in all the wars - over hundreds and thousands of years. After all - all the fighting over Israel for hundreds of yrs.; it still belongs to them!!

Jesus didn't 'say' - don't touch me because of injuries; He said, "Touch me not, for I am not yet ascended to my Father." Rev. 22:18-19. We must be VERY careful about ASSUMING things for His word that are not documented in His word.

This is such a powerful scripture! It often brings me to a place I need to be...bringing tears to my eyes. Christ on the cross dying in agony , innocent ,choosing with the deepest love possible to give his life for me, a sinner so unworthy and many times weak...I find strength and tremendous encouragement in my Christian walk in these words!!(:

Lift up your hands in the sanctuary and bless the Lord.
Jn.8:36 - If the Son shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. HALLUEJAH!!
I spelled halluejah wrong, but that's okay - the Lord knows.

Blessed is everyone that feareth the Lord; that walketh in HIS ways - His ways found ONLY in His word.
