Isaiah 55:6
Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:

Isaiah 26:4
Trust ye in the Lord for ever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength:

Psalm 63:1
O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;

"Faultless before the presence of his glory."
Jude 24

Revolve in your mind that wondrous word, "faultless!" We are far off from it now; but as our Lord never stops short of perfection in his work of love, we shall reach it one day. The Saviour who will keep his people to the end, will also present them at last to himself, as "a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing, but holy and without blemish." All the jewels in the Saviour's crown are of the first water and without a single flaw. All the maids of honour who attend the Lamb's wife are pure virgins without spot or stain. But how will Jesus make us faultless? He will wash us from our sins in his own blood until we are white and fair as God's purest angel; and we shall be clothed in his righteousness, that righteousness which makes the saint who wears it positively faultless; yea, perfect in the sight of God. We shall be unblameable and unreproveable even in his eyes. His law will not only have no charge against us, but it will be magnified in us. Moreover, the work of the Holy Spirit within us will be altogether complete. He will make us so perfectly holy, that we shall have no lingering tendency to sin. Judgment, memory, will--every power and passion shall be emancipated from the thraldom of evil. We shall be holy even as God is holy, and in his presence we shall dwell forever. Saints will not be out of place in heaven, their beauty will be as great as that of the place prepared for them. Oh the rapture of that hour when the everlasting doors shall be lifted up, and we, being made meet for the inheritance, shall dwell with the saints in light. Sin gone, Satan shut out, temptation past forever, and ourselves "faultless" before God, this will be heaven indeed! Let us be joyful now as we rehearse the song of eternal praise so soon to roll forth in full chorus from all the blood-washed host; let us copy David's exultings before the ark as a prelude to our ecstasies before the throne.

Thanks for that scripture and devotion Willy!

Thank you Mike .

Romans 12:2
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

2 Samuel 7:22
Wherefore thou art great, O Lord God: for there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.

Very good scriptures to start a morning.....
.
Here is another good one.....
.
"Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my strength and my Redeemer."
Psalms 19:14

God IS our strength and He will give us His strength if we just ask Him.

Psalm 25:14-15
The secret of the Lord is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant. Mine eyes are ever toward the Lord; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net.

And David said it the best, to the point, and so that even us foggy dudes can always dwell on it.

Psalm 19:14
Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.

Thanks for the scriptures Willy!
Always a breath of fresh air to the soul.

Your most welcome Mike, and you said it! Same way for me too .

Psalm 37:4
Delight thyself also in the Lord: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

Explains why so many people are lost today... .

Proverbs 9:10
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.

As brothers in arms, we are commanded to support, and have each others back in Christ. Even if one is struggling in sin and desperation, or really bad things are happening to him. Always be there for each other, and when he needs a hand, give it.


Galatians 6:2
Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.

When one becomes saved in are precious Lord and Savior, the Law no longer condemns us. But frees are hearts, minds, and souls to serve God in the way we were created too.
Oh Lord my God, I shall sing praises to you for ever n' ever! For your blessed salvation, ever n' ever, amen.


Psalm 40:8
I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.

Thanks for the scriptures!
I like your commentaries too!
Here is a good one to think about......
.
"All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work."
.
2 Timothy 3:16-17

Thank you Mike, and yup, the gears are turning .


Here's another great section to dwell on, lots to think about.

Ephesians 5:19-20
Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

Hebrews 4:12
For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

1 Peter 1:24-25
For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.

Very good post.....
The scripture that the apostle Peter was quoting was the first ever memory verse I learned as a kid.....
Isaiah 40:8
"The grass withers and the flower fades but the word of our God will stand forever."

Yesir Mike, that's exactly where Peter was going with it .

Romans 12:1
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

God humbles us through the gift of His Son. Yet at the same time, he lifts us up to be conquers of sin and death.

"Praise be unto you Holy God, for your precious Grace Lord God, which as a terrible sinner in your sight, rectifies me to yourself. Not through my filthy works, but by through faith, and belief in the cross."
Amen!


Ephesians 2:8-9
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Thanks Willy!!

"Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world."

1 Peter 5:8-9

Thank you Mike, there's a lot to dwell on it that scripture.

Here is a good scripture to think about on election day......

"Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God."

Romans 13:1
