Peace

A week ago, while reading Deuteronomy, I said to Father, I should like to learn to worship You as You desire.
Yes, that is just the way I wrote it — sometimes I like to turn a phrase differently. 😊

Would you expect to find in Deuteronomy a way we today can worship the LORD?
And why do I bring this up here when our verses today are found in Philippians? Bear with me, and I think you shall see.

10 and now, behold, I have brought the firstfruits of the land which you, O Lord, have given me.’ “Then you shall set it before the Lord your God, and worship before the Lord your God. 

There’s our word: worship. Now moving on to verse 11.  

11 So you shall rejoice in every good thing which the Lord your God has given to you and your house, you and the Levite and the stranger who is among you. Link to Source

There’s today’s word: rejoice.
Rejoicing for every good thing the LORD brings our way is worship!
And may I add, rejoicing that He is with us when bitter things come our way is worship too!

I hope this is helpful to you today. It’s been a blessing for me to muse on since last week!

Genesis, Gospel of Mark, Philippians, Questions

Precedence Set

A good lawyer never asks a question in a court of law that he/she does not already know the answer to.

GOD asked questions in the Bible, and you have to know He is wiser than any lawyer.
What was the first question that GOD asked in the Bible?

Genesis 3: 9Then the Lord God called to Adam and said to him, “Where are you?”

Precedence set; we know GOD knew the answer when He asked the question, and we know He knew the answer to all the other questions He asked in Scripture. You can follow His questions through the Old Testament right on into the New Testament.

Today, I’d like to bring one other question to you that He asked. It is found in Mark 8.
29 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” . . .

Peter answered Him. We too have or will answer Him. (See Philippians 2:10-11)
If you haven’t answered Him already, and if He is asking you now, today would be a great day to respond. Check out Mark 8 to see how Peter answered Him.

2025, Deuteronomy, Ephesians, Joel, Philippians, Questions

Extreme

Leave a comment

I’m taking the verse out of context and I know that is not a good practice but today I think it fits.

Paul was in prison at this writing.
To me, Paul was extreme but in an exceedingly good way; I’d like to be more like him and for you too to be more like him. 
He extremely loved people and he extremely desired for people to desire to please The LORD.

We say I will be glad when —-
but Paul said I am glad.
Even in prison, he said I am glad.
What a good and lovely extreme!

Philippians 2:17-18.

17 But even if I am being poured out like a drink offering on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with all of you. 18 So you too should be glad and rejoice with me.

Could we easily find something in this day and say I am glad?

Ephesians 6:10 – Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
