Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice. Ps. 55:17

Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Rom. 5:1

Wisdom is the Principal thing; therefore get wisdom and with all thy getting get understanding. Pr. 4: 7
For wisdom is a defence, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom giveth life to them that have it. Ec. 7:
Jonathan Edwards’s “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” was a sermon that was given during the year of 1741 in the time of The Great Awakening. Seeing that The Great Awakening was an evangelistic movement, Edwards used this speech to preach to people able God and Hell. In this speech, Jonathon described characteristics of a person who did not obey the rules and God and said that these types of people would go to Hell. He made Hell sound so terrible that it was like the people could not comprehend the thought of what Hell was like. With me being a Southern Baptist, I agree with the points Edwards preaches about.
Week Five Devotional An acronym for Bible is Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth. The Bible is our manual for living and dealing with life on life’s terms. Because we are saved does not mean we will not face persecutions, adversity, hardships, or offenses. On the contrary, Jesus makes it clear that we are going to be persecuted, and told us in John 15:20b, “If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you.” Apostle James in his letter tells us to “count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations (James 1:2).
Hi Peeps, Today's Quote "Maintaining your tools of understanding, working in your field of expertise, managing your weaknesses, and giving God the love, respect, and credit He deserves will help you NOT to become a Hypocrite." ~ Jon Barnes Fairness Matters The scales of justice is often unbalanced with favoritism, greed, hate, and evil lifestyles that enslave people all around the world. We lose ourselves in comfort, gluttony, excess, luxury, money, fame, and power by ignoring and taking advantage of the poor and holding back real solutions to the problems of implementing fair justice for all. God will judge you. Gifted Garbage
Wisdom is not simply knowledge but rather knowledge gained through personal experience and growth and then, in turn, applied back into the person’s life in a
They open to Psalm 27 that says, “Wait on the Lord, Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine Heart, wait I say on the Lord.” Rowlandson also provides
Our character must go through positive if not radical change, as we recognize our weaknesses bringing them to the Holy Spirit to be dealt with; casting down imaginations and every high thing that work against the knowledge of God and bringing them into subjection to the obedience of Christ. God emphasized His disdain for complacency when He declared that being neither hot nor cold was disgusting and He would spew the lukewarm thing out of His mouth. Jude 3 instucts us to : “…contend for the faith…” God is a God of order and He expects us to be obedient in the strictest sense of the word. This is the reason why we should be in communication with God according to Francis Shaeffer on a moment by moment, not just a day to day thing, but on a moment by moment basis.
(8) Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking to devour. (9) Resist him, firm in you faith, knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world. (10) And after a little while, God the of all grace, who has called eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.
But how many of us struggle with it and don’t realize it? Sometimes, we go through the bible or we attend service, and pick and choose what exactly we desire. If the apostle Paul wasn’t afraid to proclaim the “whole counsel of God...”(Acts 20:27), then does that mean we are only expected to observe some of it and some of the time? Peter in 2 Peter 1:3 informs us as Christians we have been given by God “All things pertaining to life and godliness.” There’s nothing that God has instructed his Body, his bride, the Church, that is okay to not apply to your life.
In Matthew chapter sixteen verse twenty-four, Jesus says, “If anyone would come after Me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me.” Taking up your cross is an action that must occur minute by minute. You must choose either to sit idly and to just avoid evil or to make a conscious decision to follow and chase after Christ and His ways. Another example in Scripture is Ephesians six verses ten through thirteen. It says, “Finally, be strong in the Lord and His mighty power.
Pray to God for the strength as Matthew 6:13 states “[a]nd lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil
Here, David says the Lord is light and He is salvation which means He guides and provides deliverance. God will guide you with His word and he will answer all your tribulations. God also adds joy to people’s lives. “The LORD is the stronghold of my life,” He provides with a source of strength to overcome difficult times in your life. Furthermore, He will show you the right path to take when you’re facing troubles in your life.
I have always regretted dropping out of college. I had to decide what was more important to me. Trying to get a higher education to help me succeed in the workforce. Or try to save my marriage which was in shambles.
This is knowledge which grants eternal happiness and meaning cannot be philosophized by the castaway; it must arrive in the form of news, which is the Absolute Paradox. By faith, this news must be heard and heeded. The Christian faith is neither knowledge nor science nor a “miraculous favor which allows one to… believe the impossible” (146). Faith is a form of communication from God, which is delivered by an apostle whose message, while transcendental and paradoxical, is believable and necessary. Jesus, who comes to bring news across the seas does so with authority and steadfastness to the point of martyrdom.
Throughout life, people are often faced with many decisions. Some of these decisions are easy to make, while others are excruciating, as they can be life altering. From a Christian’s perspective, however, people never have to make these decisions alone. God promises that he will never abandon his people, “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you” (New International Version, Deuteronomy 31:6).
My definition of knowledge is a true fact or justified belief that is acquired through a persons experience and education. To a great extent, faith does play a role in deciding if knowledge we acquire has purpose and meaning in our lives however, sometimes faith does not play a role. Personal lives refers to our day to day life and how knowledge provides us with meaning and purpose in it. Its how we take shared knowledge and apply it to our individual perceptions and perspectives of our lives. Knowledge provides with the understanding of the world and gives us meaning in life.
