THE LIVING GOD #COVENANT

from Barbara's Bible

Our #President has just traveled to #Israel and signed some #agreements (covenant) with them.   While their meetings were taking place, I was reading 1Chronicles 16 during my daily Bible time where the Lord our God speaks of His covenant…concerning Israel.   We consider a covenant to be (1) an agreement (2)a promise with legal validity (3) law (4) contract.    Please read v.14 “He is the LORD OUR GOD; His judgments are in all the earth.  15. BE MINDFUL ALWAYS OF HIS COVENANT; the  WORD WHICH HE COMMANDED TO A THOUSAND GENERATIONS; EVEN OF THE COVENANT WHICH HE MADE WITH ABRAHAM, AND OF HIS OATH UNTO ISAAC; AND CONFIRMED THE SAME TO JACOB FOR A LAW, AND TO ISRAEL FOR AN EVERLASTING COVENANT, SAYING, UNTO YOU WILL I GIVE THE LAND OF CANAAN, THE PLACE OF YOUR INHERITANCE.  27.Glory and honor are in His presence; strength and gladness are in His place.”  Zechariah 8:3 “The LORD SAID, “I am returned unto Zion and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem:  and Jerusalem shall be called a city of truth;  and the mountain of the LORD of hosts the holy mountain.  There shall yet be old men and women dwelling in the streets of Jerusalem, and every man with his staff in his hand for very aged.  The streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing thereof, said the LORD of hosts”  LORD OF HOSTS said, Behold, I will save my people from the east and west countries and will bring them to dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God in truth and in righteousness”  22. “Yes, many people and strong nations shall come to seek the LORD OF HOSTS in Jerusalem, and to  pray before the LORD.”  The Living God’s Covenant is an everlasting agreement, PROMISED by the original law giver and recorded in His Holy WORD.  What a day of fruition.

How do you see yourself?  Are you just a collection of #molecules that randomly came together and somehow achieved #consciousness?  What does the #Bible say about our make up?  On the subject of mental health, where do the studies of psychology and the Bible agree and where do they disagree?  The Bible says to love your neighbor as yourself.  But  what if you don’t love yourself?  What does the Bible say about our worth?

Next week we will look at what the Bible says about guilt versus what science has found.

THE LIVING GOD #WISE

Have the meaning of #words changed in the last few years?  Good is #bad.. Hot is #cool….Truth is #fake…#Wise is rash…are just some expressions that I have heard individuals switching from antonyms to a synonyms!   Could it be that some in our society have chosen to change words to meet their lifestyle?  The Living God is Wise discerning and judicious concerning what is true or false, proper or improper.  Our local television is promoting a special on the 6:00 news giving information on how to know if a news release is true or fake.  How can you be wise?    Turn to God’s Word and  “FIND BIBLE TRUTH”  1Corth.1;20-30  “Where is the wise:..has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?  That in the WISDOM OF GOD the world by wisdom did not know God ..so it pleased God through preaching of Christ crucified to save those that believe..both Jew and Greeks  that CHRIST IS THE POWER OF GOD AND THE WISDOM OF GOD.  .  . Are you in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption.”  Paul was writing to friends who  served and followed Jesus when he wrote in Rom, 16:17-20″I urge you, keep your eye on those who cause dissensions and hindrances contrary to the teachings which you learned and turn away from them, such men are slaves, not to our Lord Christ but of their own appetites: and by their smooth and flattering speech they deceive the hearts of the unsuspecting.  .  . I WANT YOU TO BE WISE IN WHAT IS GOOD an innocent in what is evil for the God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet.  Rom.16:26,27 “Now LORD JESUS CHRIST IS MANIFEST by scriptures according to the commandment of the EVERLASTING GOD and has been made known to all nations who leads to obedience by faith:   to THE  ONLY  WISE  GOD, BE GLORY THROUGH JESUS CHRIST FOREVER.” and Amen.
