“’Now, gird up your loins and arise, and speak to them all which I command you. Do not be dismayed before them, or I will dismay you before them. Now behold, I have made you today as a fortified city and as a pillar of iron and as walls of bronze against the whole land, to the kings of Judah, to...
“But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror; for once he has looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of...
“See to it that you do not refuse Him who is speaking. For if those did not escape when they refused him who warned them on earth, much less will we escape who turn away from Him who warns from heaven.” (Hebrews 12:25 NASB1995)
Without going into all the history behind this, this is a warning...
“You have dealt well with Your servant,
O Lord, according to Your word.
Teach me good discernment and knowledge,
For I believe in Your commandments.
Before I was afflicted I went astray,
But now I keep Your word.
You are good and do good;
Teach me Your statutes.
The arrogant have forged a lie...
“Come, let us worship and bow down,
Let us kneel before the Lord our Maker.
For He is our God,
And we are the people of His pasture and the sheep of His hand.
Today, if you would hear His voice,
Do not harden your hearts, as at Meribah,
As in the day of Massah in the wilderness,
When your...
Walk by faith, and not by sight.
Let not your faith take a flight.
Walk with Jesus every day,
Doing all that He doth say.
Follow Jesus where He leads.
Daily on His Word do feed.
Be His witness, share the truth
With all living so uncouth.
Share the gospel with, as well,
Those who seem are...
Your will for us is to do what You say,
To bow before You and to kneel and pray,
To open our hearts to receive from You
Whatever You planned now for us to do.
Your will, O Lord, is my true heart’s desire,
To know what of me that You now require,
To follow You, Lord, now in all Your ways,
To...
“Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits. Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes nor figs from thistles, are they? So every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree...
The grace of God frees us from sin
So we can live now just for Him.
It sanctifies us, pure within,
So sin no longer we give in.
It’s training us say “No!” to self,
Put worldly passions on the shelf,
Ungodliness now gone away
So from our Lord we will not stray.
For Jesus died on cruel cross
For...
We live in a world of liars, deceivers,
Mischievous in thought, and underachievers.
Their world is a play where they now play the lead,
Their purpose in all is to others deceive.
They’re wrapped up in self, for the self they do please,
They live for the thrill and what puts them at ease.
E’en...
“But I have written very boldly to you on some points so as to remind you again, because of the grace that was given me from God, to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles, ministering as a priest the gospel of God, so that my offering of the Gentiles may become acceptable, sanctified by...
“O Lord, who may abide in Your tent?
Who may dwell on Your holy hill?
He who walks with integrity, and works righteousness,
And speaks truth in his heart.
He does not slander with his tongue,
Nor does evil to his neighbor,
Nor takes up a reproach against his friend;
In whose eyes a reprobate is...
“Only conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or remain absent, I will hear of you that you are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel; in no way alarmed by your opponents—which is a sign...
“Therefore if you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on earth. For you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life...
“So I turned and came down from the mountain while the mountain was burning with fire, and the two tablets of the covenant were in my two hands. And I saw that you had indeed sinned against the Lord your God. You had made for yourselves a molten calf; you had turned aside quickly from the way...
