Tuesday’s Treasure – What “WILL” you do?

 

Psalms 101:1-8  <<A Psalm of David.>> I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O LORD, will I sing. I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart. I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.  A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person. Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer. Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.  He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.  I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of the LORD.

Some “I wills” that David purposed to do:

  • I will sing of mercy and judgment – Be thankful for God’s mercy every day and be thankful for His judgment when you sin.
  • I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way – Is my life obedient to the Lord continually?
  • I will walk within my house with a perfect heart – Do those within my house see me the same as others see me in public or in church?  My Christianity ought to be it’s very best before those in my household.
  • I will set no wicked thing before my eyes – What are you looking at?  What is on that TV, computer, magazine rack, etc.?  Oh, be careful little eyes what you see for the Father up above is looking down in love, so be careful little eyes what you see.
  • I will not know a wicked person – who do you keep company with?  Yes, we need to reach the world with the gospel, but wicked people should not be our regular company or influence.
  • I will cut off the proud and the slanderer – Keep yourself away from proud people and from those who seek to destroy others with their words. 

These “I wills” are good food for thought and things that we should resolve to do daily.

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...
