I am led by God

-

Psalms 16:7

I will bless the Lord who guides me; even at night my heart instructs me.


We as humans are not wholly independent, we need help to be able to prosper in this life and more importantly the life after.


One privilege those who have come to the Lord enjoy is the Heavenly Father's leading. He leads us by His Holy Spirit, thus we would not be put to shame.


Psalm 16:8

I have set the LORD always before me: because [he is] at my right hand, I shall not be moved.


Isaiah 26:3

Thou wilt keep [him] in perfect peace, [whose] mind [is] stayed [on thee]: because he trusteth in thee.


This is a contrast to those who reject the Lord, those who feel they could get help from somewhere else, doing those things that the Lord abhors:


Psalm 16:4

Their sorrows shall be multiplied [that] hasten [after] another [god]: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into my lips.


For any pact with the enemy is already to the human's loss, for the enemy seeks no good thing for anyone.


 John 10:10

The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have [it] more abundantly.


For God's promise to us is both in this life and the life to come:


Psalm 16:9-11

Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope.

 For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence [is] fulness of joy; at thy right hand [there are] pleasures for evermore.


So we rest in Him.


Psalm 16:5

The LORD [is] the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.


Psalms 16:5(Message)

My choice is you, God, first and only. And now I find I'm your choice!


So why would anyone reject God's outstretched hand to all. He did not give us a religion but salvation and only in His Son Christ Jesus can this be found.


So stay in Him and lead others to the same if you love them.


Glory to Your name Heavenly Father for the grace You have given us in Christ Jesus and remain in us in Your Holy Spirit. We submit to Your leading Lord, we continue to prosper and increase in this life and the life to come. Halleluyah. Glory to Your name Lord forevermore.


We are victorious.


Love

GOOD LIKE YOUR FATHER

-
Genesis 1:31 Then God looked over all he had made, and he saw that it was very good! And evening passed and morning came, marking the sixth day. There is one thing we must have in mind, "it is the desire of our Heavenly Father that we should be like Him". He is good and He expects us to be good, we follow in His good nature. One of the attributes of the Heavenly Father's goodness is in the perfection of His work. What can be said of your works? Listen, the Psalmist sang: Psalms 118:23 This is the Lord’s doing, and it is wonderful to see. Look at those who walked with the Heavenly Father in scriptures, their works were wonderful to behold, is it when they worked in spiritual positions, Joseph and Daniel in interpretation of dreams and giving wise counsel; or the prophets when they delivered God's message or did miracles. Their works were commendable when they were in political positions, Joseph and Daniel are still very good examples, no blemish was found in their work...

OUR GIVING

-
John 12:3 Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment. What exactly have we sacrificed for Christ? We talk of all His goodness, love and unmerited favour, how have we shown appreciation for the grace He has given us? Do we really know what the Lord has done for us? Psalm 139:17-18 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!  [If] I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee. Psalm 30:12 To the end that [my] glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever. People ask, Christ is not physically here with us, how can I pour my precious oil on Him? This is what He said: Matthew 25:40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done [it] unto one of the least of these...

CHRIST'S RULE

-
Isaiah 11:9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea. The prophecy on Judah's predicament did not end there, there was the prophecy of the return of the remnant. The end of the days will see a new wave of peace and joyous happiness. It will be characterized with the initial plan of God being fulfilled. Wildness in animals removed, wars will not need to be fought, snakes would no longer be poisonous. Peace would reign. This prophecy displayed salvation in Christ Jesus for the Gentiles.: Isaiah 11:10 And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious. Christ Jesus would also bring about the return of the remnant of the children of Israel from all parts of the earth. It would be like the exit of Israel from the bondage they experienced with Pharaoh in Egypt. No matter how we look ...
