Proverbs 21:2

Every way of a man is right in his own eyes,
    but the Lord weighs the heart.

[angels4u]

1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

6 For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish. Psalm 1

[angels4u]

…Looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special people, zealous for good works.” (Titus 2:13-14)

[angels4u]

Power For Life And Trial

By A. B. Simpson (1843 – 1919)

    There is power in Christ’s Resurrection to enable us to meet the hardest places in life and endure its bitterest trials.  And so we read in Philippians that the power of His Resurrection is to bring us into the knowledge of the fellowship of His sufferings, and make us conformable unto His death.  We go into the resurrection life that we may be strong enough to suffer with Him and for Him.

    There is a very remarkable passage in Isaiah which tells us of those that “mount up with wings as eagles”; but immediately afterwards we find the same persons coming down to the ordinary walks of life, “to run and not be weary, to walk and not faint” (Isa. 40:31).  It would seem as if the mounting up was just intended to fit them for the running and walking, and that the higher experiences of grace and glory were designed to enable them to tread the lower levels of toil and trial.

    It is in keeping with this that the apostle speaks of glorying in tribulation.  “Glory” expresses the highest attitude of the soul, and “tribulation” the deepest degree of suffering.  And so it would teach us that when we come to the deepest and lowest place we must meet it in the highest and most heavenly spirit.  This is going down from the Mount of Transfiguration to meet the demoniac in the plain below, and cast out the power of Satan from a suffering world.  Yes, these are the sufferings of Christ.  The power of His Resurrection is designed to enable us to rise to all the heights of His glorious life, and like Him go forth to reflect our blessing upon the lives of others.

[B-B]

14....... “Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of His saints, 

15 to execute judgment on all, to convict all who are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have committed in an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him.”

Apostates Predicted

16 These are grumblers, complainers, walking according to their own lusts; and they mouth great swelling words, flattering people to gain advantage. 

17 But you, beloved, remember the words which were spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ: 

18 how they told you that there would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own ungodly lusts. 

19 These are sensual persons, who cause divisions, not having the Spirit.

Maintain Your Life with God

20 But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, 

21 keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

22 And on some have compassion, making a distinction; 

23 but others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire, hating even the garment defiled by the flesh.

Jude 14-23

[Mama Etna]

The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth,
and delivereth them out of all their troubles.
The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart;
and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.
Psalm 34:17-18

[Mama Etna]

The liberal soul shall be made fat:
and he that watereth shall be watered also himself.
Proverbs 11:25

[Mama Etna]

If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the Lord that healeth thee.
Exodus 15:26

Proverbs 21

¹² The Righteous One observes the house of the wicked;
    he throws the wicked down to ruin.

[Mama Etna]

Can a woman forget her sucking child,
that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb?
yea, they may forget,
yet will I not forget thee.
Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands;
thy walls are continually before me.

Isaiah 49:15-16
