Fear of the Lord-Jack Blake
Thursday, June 20, 2024Good Morning,
From Psalms 34.11: come you children, listen to me: I will teach you the fear of the Lord. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; A good understanding have all those who do His commandments. His praise endures forever. Psalms 111.10. The fear of the Lord is to hate evil: Pride and arrogance and the evil way and also the perverse mouth I hate. Proverbs 8.13. The fear of the Lord prolongs days. Proverbs 10.27. The fear of the Lord leads to life Proverbs 19.23. The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, to turn one away from the snares of death. Proverbs 14.27. Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God and keep His commandments, for this is man's all. Ecclesiastes 12.13.
Faith-Jack Blake
Wednesday, June 19, 2024Good Morning,
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things unseen. Hebrews 11.1. Faith comes by hearing, and hearing the word of God. Romans 10.17. Jesus the author and finisher of our faith, for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne. of God. Hebrews 12.2. The just shall live and walk by faith, not by sight. Romans 1.17; 2 Corinthians 5.7. Without faith it is impossible to please God, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is the rewarder of them that diligently seek Him. Hebrews 11.6. Jesus said, if thou can believe, all things are possible through Him. Mark 9.23. Faith is the victory that overcomes the world.
Know God-Jack Blake
Tuesday, June 18, 2024Good Morning,
I serve a living God, an awesome God, who has such great power, strength, mercy and love for His creation. Do you know my God, have you tasted of His goodness, have you felt His power and His love, have you taken time to see the beauty of His creation Psalms 19.1? Sometimes I wonder if we don't get so wrapped up in ourselves that we overlook the most beautiful, wonderful things of life and fall back into the ways of the world? If after examining our hearts, which is what God is after, we should find evil creeping in, KNOW THIS: there is still hope to save your poor wicked soul, The name is Jesus, the beloved Son of God, the object is the cross, the event was the resurrection from death by the power of God which leads one to/ back into His loving, everlasting arms. Come out from among the wicked of the world, stand strong in the faith and the word of God.
These are my thoughts.Thanks for reading.
Our God and His will for us-Jack Blake
Friday, June 14, 2024Good Morning,
We must know and believe the words of David in Psalm 48.14; This God is our God for ever and ever; He will be our God even unto death. And the wise man said in Proverbs 3.5-6: Trust in the Lord with all your heart; lean not on your own understanding, but in all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths, for His word is a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path. Psalm 119.105. God has taught us and showed us what is good and all He requires of us is to do justly, to love mercy, and to humbly walk with Him. See Micah 6.8. Salvation belongs to our God; what a wonderful savior is He.
Father, we thank you for your beloved Son Jesus and for Your word on which we firmly stand. Help us Father to never forget that You are the rock we lean on and our fortress and for Your sake lead us and guide us through this pilgrim land to our heavenly home. AMEN
