GOD > man

Sanctify The Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear.
1 Peter 3:15


Behold, the eye of The LORD is upon them that fear Him,
upon them that hope in His mercy; To deliver their soul from death,
and to keep them alive in famine.
Psalm 33:18,19

Psalm 110:2
The LORD will stretch forth Your strong scepter from Zion, saying,
"Rule in the midst of Your enemies."

Post Of The Day. Isaiah 53

He was despised and forsaken of men,
A man of sorrows and acquainted with grief;
And like one from whom men hide their face
He was despised, and we did not esteem Him.
Surely our griefs He Himself bore,
And our sorrows He carried;
Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken,
Smitten of God, and afflicted.
But He was pierced through for our transgressions,
He was crushed for our iniquities;
The chastening for our well-being fell upon Him,
And by His scourging we are healed.
All of us like sheep have gone astray,
Each of us has turned to his own way;
But The LORD has caused the iniquity of us all
To fall on Him.

Isaiah 53:3-6

Therefore will I divide Him a portion with the great,
and He shall divide the spoil with the strong;
Because He poured out Himself to death,
And was numbered with the transgressors;
Yet He Himself bore the sin of many,
And interceded for the transgressors.

Isaiah 53:12


O taste and see that The LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in Him.
Psalm 34:8

But they that wait upon The LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
Isaiah 40:31

When a man's ways please The LORD, He maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.
Proverbs 16:7

At the end of that time, I, Nebuchadnezzar, raised my eyes toward heaven, and my sanity was restored. Then I praised The Most High; I honored and glorified Him who lives forever. His dominion is an eternal dominion; His kingdom endures from generation to generation. All the peoples of the earth are regarded as nothing. He does as He pleases with the powers of heaven and the peoples of the earth. No one can hold back His hand or say to Him: "What have you done?"
Daniel 4:34-35

Terror accomplishes no real obedience. Suspense brings forth no fruit unto holiness. No gloomy uncertainty as to God's favor can subdue one lust, or correct our crookedness of will. But the free pardon of the cross uproots sin, and withers all its branches. Only the certainty of love, forgiving love, can do this.

-Horatius Bonar, found the quote here: http://thoughtsonthewayblog.blogspot.com/2011/01/terror-accomplishes-no-real-obedience.html added the blog to the links.

and here's a quote from a hymn he wrote, GLORY BE TO THE GOD THE FATHER

Glory be to Him Who loved us,
Washed us from each spot and stain!
Glory be to Him Who bought us,
Made us kings with Him to reign!
Glory, glory, glory, glory,
To THE LAMB that once was Slain!

DO YOU STILL BELIEVE?
by David Wilkerson

Recently I had an unusual experience while in meditation with The Lord. His still small voice asked of me, “Do you still believe?”

“Do you believe I still love you unconditionally—that you are right now being led by The Holy Spirit—that every tear you shed I bottle—that you are right now in this place, in this very hour, in the perfect will of God?

“Do you believe all things still work together for good to them that love Me—that I hear your prayers, even when you have no audible words to express them, when all seems dark and you are overwhelmed—when fear lays hold on your mind and soul—when it seems I have shut the heavens to you?

“David, do you still believe I feed all living things: the fish of the sea, the cattle, the fowls, all creeping things? Do you still believe I count every hair on your head—that I take note of every fallen bird on the face of the earth? Do you truly believe that?

“Do you still believe—when death comes to your loved ones? Do you still believe what you have testified, that I give comfort and strength to face even the grave?

“Do you still believe I love you—I forgive you all your past sins, your present sins—and I will forgive all future sins if you rest and trust Me? Do you believe I understand when Satan sends his messengers against you to implant lies, doubts, blasphemies, fears, despair?

“Do you still believe you are in the palm of My hand—that you are more precious than gold to your Savior—that eternal life is your future—that there is no power that can pluck you out of My hand—that I still am touched by every infirmity and affliction you endure? Do you still believe these things are true?”

My answer is emphatically YES! Yes, Lord, I still believe it all and more—much more!

Read all of Psalm 103 and ask yourself, “Do I still believe it? All of it?”

Nehemiah 8:10
...Do not grieve, for the joy of THE LORD is your strength*.

*a place or means of safety, protection

Nehemiah 9
31
Nevertheless, in Your great compassion You did not make an end of them
or forsake them, For You are a gracious and compassionate God.
32
Now therefore, our God, the great, the mighty,
and the awesome God, who keeps covenant and lovingkindness ...


Job 35:14:

How much less when you say you do not behold Him,
The case is before Him, and you must wait for Him!

Wesley's Notes

"Trust - Instead of murmuring, repent of what is past, humble thyself under God's hand, wait patiently in his way, 'till deliverance come; for it will certainly come if thou dost not hinder it."

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

35:14-26 As in prosperity we are ready to think our mountain will never be brought low; so when in adversity, we are ready to think our valley will never be filled up. But to conclude that to-morrow must be as this day, is as absurd as to think that the weather, when either fair or foul, will be always so. When Job looked up to God, he had no reason to speak despairingly. There is a day of judgment, when all that seems amiss will be found to be right, and all that seems dark and difficult will be cleared up and set straight. And if there is Divine wrath in our troubles, it is because we quarrel with God, are fretful, and distrust Divine Providence. This was Job's case. Elihu was directed by God to humble Job, for as to some things he had both opened his mouth in vain, and had multiplied words without knowledge. Let us be admonished, in our afflictions, not so much to set forth the greatness of our suffering, as the greatness of the mercy of God.

1 Peter 1:13
Therefore, prepare your minds for action, keep sober in spirit, fix your hope completely on the grace to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

Proverbs 20:24
Man's goings are of The LORD; how can a man then understand his own way?

The steps of a man are from JEHOVAH; and how can a man understand his own way?

Matthew 11: 28-30
Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.
Take My yoke upon you andlearn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart,
and YOU WILL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS.
For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.


Matthew 12: 17-21
This was to fulfill what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet:

"BEHOLD, MY SERVANT WHOM I HAVE CHOSEN;
MY BELOVED IN WHOM MY SOUL is WELL-PLEASED;
I WILL PUT MY SPIRIT UPON HIM,
AND HE SHALL PROCLAIM JUSTICE TO THE GENTILES.
HE WILL NOT QUARREL, NOR CRY OUT;
NOR WILL ANYONE HEAR HIS VOICE IN THE STREETS.

A BATTERED REED HE WILL NOT BREAK OFF,
AND A SMOLDERING WICK HE WILL NOT PUT OUT,
UNTIL HE LEADS JUSTICE TO VICTORY.
AND IN HIS NAME THE GENTILES WILL HOPE."

Verses of the day and a quote

First the quote, from David Wilkerson from the post i linked to in my last post,

"Paul, Silas and Timothy would have wallowed in fear and depression if they had focused on their troubles. Instead, they focused on God—praising and worshiping Him."

And the two psalm verses that fit the quote great :)

Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise:
be thankful unto Him, and bless His name.
Psalm 100:4

I rejoice in following Your statutes as one rejoices in great riches.
Psalm 119:14

And then two verses from our LORD JESUS

For where two or three are gathered together in My name,
there am I in the midst of them.
Matthew 18:20

Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Matthew 6:19-21

abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul

1 Peter 2:11
Dearly beloved I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul

2 Timothy 3:15
From infancy, you have known the holy Scriptures which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith, which is in Christ Jesus.



1 Peter 2:21-25
For you have been called for this purpose, since Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example for you to follow in His steps,
WHO COMMITTED NO SIN, NOR WAS ANY DECEIT FOUND IN HIS MOUTH;
and while being reviled, He did not revile in return; while suffering,
He uttered no threats, but kept entrusting Himself to Him who judges righteously;
and He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness; for by His wounds you were healed.
For you were continually straying like sheep, but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Guardian of your souls.

Psalm 119:
173 Let Your hand be ready to help me, For I have chosen Your precepts.
174 I long for Your salvation, YAHWEH, And Your law is my delight.
175 Let my soul live that it may praise YOU, And let Your ordinances help me.
176 I have gone astray like a lost sheep ; seek Your servant, For I do not forget Your commandments.

Give yourself a break!

Psalm 28:

To you, YAHWEH, I call.
My rock, don't be deaf to me; lest,
if You are silent to me, I would become like those who go down into the pit.
Hear the voice of my petitions, when I cry to You,
when I lift up my hands toward Your Most Holy Place.

Don't draw me away with the wicked,
with the workers of iniquity who speak peace with their neighbors, but mischief is in their hearts.

Give them according to their work, and according to the wickedness of their doings.
Give them according to the operation of their hands.
Bring back on them what they deserve.

Because they don't respect the works of YAHWEH, nor the operation of His hands,
He will break them down and not build them up.

Blessed be YAHWEH, because He has heard the voice of my petitions.

YAHWEH is my strength and my shield.
My heart has trusted in Him, and I am helped.
Therefore my heart greatly rejoices. With my song I will thank Him.

YAHWEH is their strength. He is a stronghold of salvation to His anointed.

Save your people, and bless your inheritance.
Be their shepherd also, and bear them up forever.
A Psalm by David.

Crucifixion of Jesus Chris, what? why?

atonement

the reconciliation of God and humankind through the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ

Romans 3:21-28:

But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested,
being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all
and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood,
to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that He might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.

the site where this expiation happened was Golgotha
and
the cross can be a symbol and a monument for it.

"It is finished."
