Saturday’s Sanctification – God’s holiness-our reaction

Psalms 99:3 Let them praise thy great and terrible name; for it is holy.

Psalms 99:9  Exalt the LORD our God, and worship at his holy hill; for the LORD our God is holy.

God’s holiness as presented in Psalm 99 should cause us to live out Psalm 100

Psalms 100:1-5  <<A Psalm of praise.>> Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands.   Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing. Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.  Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.

  • Make a joyful noise unto the Lord – Who? All ye lands!  One day all the lands will recognize who the Lord is!
  • Serve the Lord – How? With gladness.  What a privilege to serve the Lord.  Are we glad for this privilege?
  • Know ye that the LORD  - He is God:  He made us. We belong to Him.  Once again, one day all men everywhere will know this and admit this and humble bow before Him and confess that Jesus is Lord.
  • Enter into his gates with thanksgiving – Are we thankful for the opportunity to be in His house?  Are we praising Him continually? Let us not forsake the assembling of ourselves together as believers.
  • Be thankful – How often I see little trinkets and sayings that say give thanks or be thankful, but you don’t see what should be added to that saying, that is Give thanks to God or Be thankful unto him. 
  • Bless His Name – Have you blessed the Lord today?  We can bless Him by doing all of the above.

Why should we do the above?

Because the Lord is good!

His mercy is everlasting!

His truth endures to all generations!

Wednesday’s Wisdom

1 Kings 8:61  Let your heart therefore be perfect with the LORD our God, to walk in his statutes, and to keep his commandments, as at this day. How much do we give? Psalms 96:8-9 “Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name:” (Give Praise and worship) “bring an offering, and come into his courts.” (Give personal wealth) “O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth.” (Give practical witness) “ God wants our praise.  The world needs our practical witness of a holy life.  and we need to give our personal wealth.  God does not need our gifts-but we need to give.  The greatest gift we can give is to give our lives to His service. ~The above is from My Morning Manna, vol. 3, p. 226, by Ed Nelson

50 Reasons Why I Love the Lord

I recently had a birthday, but more important is my spiritual birthday.  I am so thankful to be born again. This is my 50th year in the Lord!  To think that the Lord saved me and keeps me is beyond my comprehension!  I am so filled with awe and gratitude to my Lord!  Since this is my 50th year to be saved,  I wrote down 50 reasons why I love Him.  It was not a hard task.  There are so many reasons to love the Lord.  I cannot think of one reason why the Lord would want to love me, but I am so thankful that He does.  He only is our HOPE. I have been so overwhelmed with the Lord's love for me that I felt like I needed to share it with others.  If you don't know the Lord, please don't delay.  You will never regret His love for you. He first loved me. He sent His only begotten son to die in my place. He forgives all my sin He saved me by His shed blood He has never left nor forsaken me. He is ever merciful and His merc...
