A circle of protection

Ps. 34:7

God’s angel is encamped around you and those you love. This is a very comforting truth.

When Trinity used to have their High School at Crossroads Church, there was a dangerous intersection for these young drivers to negotiate. I asked the Lord to keep His angels there to protect them. HE DID!

God closely watches …

Ps. 33

He is closely watching EVERYTHING we do. His eyes are constantly upon everyone, righteous and unrighteous.

Nothing is hidden from Him. Don’t even try to fool Him. He sees it all, yet He loves us SO MUCH.

Confess and forsake your sin. Let Him rejoice over your good works.

For Thy Name’s sake

Ps. 31

I’ve been delinquent. Sorry. We’ve been in Ohio for a week to attend my cousin reunion.

A great appeal the Psalmist used to gain God’s help when he was in trouble was to invite the Lord to vindicate His name by protecting David.

We are the people known by God’s name. Call upon that name when you need His help.

Walk in integrity

Ps. 26

Of all the available motivations of life, CHOOSE INTEGRITT.

The benefits may not immediately be exposed, but God’s Word says your steps will not slide.

As I get older, one of my greatest enemies is falling. So, sliding steps can easily result in a fall. Integrity is insurance against falling,figuratively.

I lack NOTHING

Psalm 23

Think about it … what do you REALLY need that you don’t already have. You probably have a comfortable place to live, a vehicle, clothes in your closet, and food in the fridge. Most of us live with abundance.

We owe it all to the Lord. Our gratitude is usually all He asks.

Go ahead, say “Thank You, Jesus.” In fact, say it all day long!

Pleasing God

Ps. 19

The Psalmist said, “May the Word’s of my mouth and the meditation of my heart (thoughtlife) be acceptable on Thy sight.”

Every thought and every word can either be acceptable or un-acceptable. Ask God for the grace and strength to please Him with all words and thoughts.

“Blessed are the pure of heart. They shall see God.” [Matt. 5:8]

Psalm 15

This has long been one of my favorite Bible passages. It is instruction on holy living. Worship is a lifestyle, not an event.

A worshipper bows to the Lord in every area of their life.

Please read this passage and let God’s Holy Spirit draw you into this lifestyle.
