While david is called a man after God's own heart david is not called a righteous man, or holy or pefect in God's sight. Unlike Daniel who lived a life of godliness David's life is one of sin and failure with blaring failure. He was one of the worst fathers in the bible. To be honest David is not an example to follow after excet to be honest after our sin. Repent and turn from it. Daniel is a great example of a man who loves the Lord and how we are to live.

So, then, how does a person "bless" the Lord?

Did David actually bless the Lord, or is this just something that he longed to do?

In saying that David was a man "after God's own heart," is this merely stating the attitude of David, or did he actually manage to touch God's heart?

Hey, you guys.....

....I really don't mean to be a bother, but I am just wondering if someone could please address the above questions, which I posed a couple of days ago.

I need to know how a person blesses God.

Are there any Scriptures that indicate how this can be done?

Is it possible to make the Lord glad....besides obedience?

I mean, to actually stir His emotions...move Him....make Him feel something.

If so, how?

It would be really great if someone could respond.

Thank you for your time

I've always wondered if it were even possible to "bless" God. It seems to me like the only one who can bless IS God, although, people tend to pass on blessings to others in the name of God. Every time I've ever read "I will bless the Lord" it confused me. What is a blessing but a prayer for God to bestow goodness on someone else? Unless the word was barak, then it makes sense.

Be Still And Know God

Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
Psalms 46:10

Bow Down And Worship The LORD

And David said to all the congregation, Now bless the LORD your God. And all the congregation blessed the LORD God of their fathers, and bowed down their heads, and worshipped the LORD, and the king.
1 Chronicles 29:20

Praise God

O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard:
Psalms 66:8

Be Saved And Be His

For the LORD taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation.
Psalms 149:4

Walk In The Spirit

So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
Romans 8:8-9

Abide In Christ And Glorify The Father

Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
John 15:8-10

:24:

Oh!

Take His Priceless Gift.

Believe

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 3:16

Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Hebrews 12:2

:laugh:

Grace To You Beloved Sister.

"Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: For our God is a consuming fire."

Hebrews 12:28-29

Love, Your Brother Joe

PS: Most Times I Know I Know Nothing Except Jesus Christ And Him Crucified.

Adding To The Little Understanding I Have Is The Perception That All Humans Are At One Time Or Another Desperation To Know God.

When They Are Willing To Humble Themselves Before The LORD, I Truly Believe He Always Reveals Himself To Them.

For I Know His Joy Is In The One Who's Desire Is To Know Him.

To Please God Is To Know God.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
