Morning!

Lamentations 3: (NLT)22 The faithful love of the Lord never ends! His mercies never cease. 23 Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning. source

And what a morning it is! The LORD’s mercies are new for us!  If we messed up yesterday, today’s a new day!

Genesis 1: (KJV) 5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. source

Just an observation. Night comes before day. We start out in the dark and when JESUS speaks the Light dawns. 

For Thousands of Years

6 So he released everything he owned into Joseph’s hand. With him in charge, he did not think about anything except the food he ate.
Now Joseph was handsome in form and handsome in appearance.
7 Now after these things, the master’s wife lifted up her eyes at Joseph and said, “Come, lie down with me!”
8 But he refused. “Look,” he said to his master’s wife, “my master doesn’t think about anything in the house with me in charge, and everything that belongs to him he’s entrusted into my hand.
9 No one in this house is greater than I, and he has withheld nothing from me—except you, because you are his wife. So how could I commit this great evil and sin against God?”
10 So whenever she spoke to Joseph, day after day, he did not listen to her invitation to lie down beside her, to be with her.
11 Now on one such day, he came into the house to do his work, and none of the people of the house were there in the house.
12 Then she grabbed him by his garment saying, “Come, lie with me!” But he left his garment in her hand, fled and went outside.
13 When she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and fled outside,
14 she screamed to the men of her house and said to them, “Look! Someone brought a Hebrew man to us to fool with us. He approached me to lie with me so I screamed out loud.
15 When he heard me raise my voice and scream, he left his garment with me, fled and went outside.”
16 Then she kept the garment with her until his master came home.
17 She spoke the same words to him saying, “The Hebrew slave that you brought us approached me to fool with me.
18 When I raised my voiced and screamed, he left his garment with me and fled outside.”  Genesis 39  source

Justice

25 Far be it from You to do such a thing—to cause the righteous to die with the wicked, so that the righteous and the wicked share the same fate! Far be it from You! Shall the Judge of the whole world not exercise justice?” Genesis 18 TLV  source

Got a quarrel with GOD over something He did or didn’t do?  He’s not mad at you about it. Ask Him to help you agree with Him, forgive Him and trust Him to do Right at just the right time.

Old or New

Abram believed the Lord, and he credited it to him as righteousness. Genesis 15  NIV source

For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.” Romans 4 TLV source

Old or New Testaments. To be Right with GOD we must BELIEVE HIM.

What does that mean to you, to believe GOD?
