Ps 112:1 Praise the Lord! Blessed is the man who FEARS the Lord , who DELIGHTS greatly in His commandment. Labels: Enjection
Having the fear of the Lord, is not something scary but it means to be delight, to be in Joy. Because in Ps 111:10 it says that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have all those who do His commandments. So we need to understand the word so that our fear in the Lord is not about restricting ourselves or be bind in legalism neither to live our life lawlessly but is to understand God more and experiencing Him in a deeper level. When we prepare our heart during quiet time to seek Him, it is the pouring of our hearts to Him and let Him take control of our life, knowing that we belongs to Him and Him alone, the world cannot reduce our presence as we engage God. God will never forgets us nor abandon us. Always give yourself to prayer. Remember, he who abides in Him will have everlasting life.
Remember what Bro Nick says in the service? He says that we are people that God can use and that thru us God's perfection is release. Jer 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. See over here, that God promises us a future and hope, though we may not understand what God has for us, but we can definitely trust in Him out plans and hope. Cuz Mt 6:33 says that But Seek First the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Notice God not juz says to seek His kingdom but also his righteousness. What is righteousness, if u look carefully, it is actually God's commandment on living a life of honesty and integrity.
So lets us put God's commandment in our hearts and in our mind. What I have learnt and notice so far is really when you put ur trust in Him, He will never shortchange you.
