WE LIVE IN OBEDIENCE TO THE GOD OF LOVE (Psalm 111)

-
Psalm 111:9
He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend [is] his name.

God's love for us has been expressed through the pages of scriptures, in this Psalms the prophesy of His redemption was revealed.

Psalms 111:9 (NLT)
He has paid a full ransom for his people. He has guaranteed his covenant with them forever. What a holy, awe-inspiring name he has!

This is why Christ came.

Luke 24:7
Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.

Yes, what a loving Father. He expects us to live this life in obedience. He has bought us back with the highest price payable, it is thus for us to live in obedience. He has made all things, as we see them we give Him praise. Some things will come to take its place wanting to bring us down, but we will remain faithful to our author yes our redeemer all He has made evident around us reminds us that He is in control.

Psalms 111:1-2
Praise the lord!
I will thank the lord with all my heart as I meet with his godly people.
How amazing are the deeds of the lord!
All who delight in him should ponder them.

Glory to God, He remains faithful, no matter what comes He is in control. He favours His children yes those whose mind is set on Him. No matter the persecution or temptations He brings us out on top. In the end we inherit all, for with Christ we never loose. Halleluyah.

Psalms 111:3-6
Everything he does reveals His glory and majesty. His righteousness never fails.
He causes us to remember his wonderful works. How gracious and merciful is our Lord!
He gives food to those who fear him; He always remembers His covenant.
He has shown His great power to His people by giving them the lands of other nations.

Psalms 111:7-8
All he does is just and good, and all his commandments are trustworthy.
They are forever true, to be obeyed faithfully and with integrity.

That is the evidence of our love for Him. Obedience.

John 14:21.
He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.

1John 5:3
For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.

Yes they are not. They are all summarised in love. And if we are His, we already have His Spirit. Love is the character of His Spirit.

Thus it is wisdom to walk in obedience.

Psalm 111:10
The fear of the LORD [is] the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do [his commandments]: his praise endureth for ever.

Let us continually think and meditate on this then we will not give room for other choices. Glory to God.

Halleluyah. Help us good Lord.

He calls us blessed.

Love
@the watcher.

DO YOU STILL SEE?

Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry. It may have been easy when we first believed, to visualize the promises. We reach out with zeal, loving God, seeking to do exploits. That was when we first believed, just as Jesus said: John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." When we become born again we see God's kingdom, our spirit man is reborn and we count the flesh as nothing. Then time passes by, we are in the world, all its distractions, temptations, responsibilities, challenges and so on begin to reveal themselves. The question then is: * Can we still see heaven? John 3:3 * Are we still zealous? John 2:17 * Are we continuing in those things? Acts 2:42 * Are we walking in love? 1John 4:7 or Has the cares and worries of life and service ta

DO UNTO OTHERS . . .

-
Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. It is hypocritical of us to expect people to stand with us when we are experiencing challenges yet when we see others face their own challenges, we begin to imagine what they must have done wrong or maybe they annoyed God or did one evil or the other instead of reaching out to help as we would desire others to do for us. The same thing goes for prosperity, when the Lord opens a door for us and we have abundance of wealth or a breakthrough we expect others to rejoice with us, more so, some would even find it hard to give to others. What is our reaction when someone else gets this breakthrough, do we get suddenly suspicious without reason. Do we expect the person to reach out to us? It is better to stay on the side of encouragement than to sit as a judge or prosecutor. Jesus said, Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same

MY YEAR OF FULFILMENT

-
Psalms 57:2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. We just finished the book of 1Samuel, in this book we see the cry of Israel for a king and how God raised Saul to rule them. We also saw how Saul disobeyed God and lost kingship for himself and his generation. He did not stop there, he went on to seek for the death of David, whom he saw as the next heir of the throne. In chapter 31, the last chapter, we see how Saul and all his sons and men were killed, it was tragic, however it was as a sign of relief for David. We could go on counting all the struggles and difficulties we faced in the past year. No, we should not, we should begin to look at all the positives, remembering all the good things God has done for us. If He promised it, He will do it and that is what we hold onto as we go through this year. Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. This is the year of fulfilment, and
