Psalm 1
1 Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked
or stand in the way of sinners
or sit in the seat of mockers.

2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
and on his law he meditates day and night.

3 He is like a tree firmly planted by streams of water,
which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither.
Whatever he does prospers.

4 Not so the wicked!
They are like chaff that the wind blows away.

5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

6 For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked will perish.


The more you know of God?s attributes, the more you understand of His
acts; the more you will treasure up His promises.
Meditate and delight in His law both day and night!

Know Jesus thru His living word, by the breath of His Holy Spirit.
This knowledge is a divine armor,
by which to ward off all the blows of the enemy,
by which to stand in any circumstance, any drought. --Eph 6:13

Trust in the LORD, treasure His word in your heart and mind
Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads
--Deut 11:18

and be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water {a tree able to stand
secure},
which yields its fruit in season,
whose leaf does not wither {faint or fade away}.

Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted shall be uprooted.
--Mt 15:13


Know the LORD
Know Jesus the living word
Stand unshakeable, stand secure --Heb 12:28
Rejoicing with unspeakable joy full of His glory!
The Truth displayed and revealed.

1 Peter 1:6-9
In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had
to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. These have come so that your faith?of
greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire?may
be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus
Christ is revealed. Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even
though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an
inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the goal of your
faith, the salvation of your souls.


Habakkuk 2:14
For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as
the waters cover the sea.


Isaiah 12:2-3
Surely God is my salvation;
I will trust and not be afraid.
The LORD, the LORD, is my strength and my song;
he has become my salvation.
With joy you will draw water
from the wells of salvation.

Living water flowing
Flowing freely from the Rock --1 Cor 10:4
The well of salvation
Joy unspeakable Joy
Joy full of His glory
Joy that can not be taken away!
Jesus my strength, my song, my Rock
I love you, O LORD, my strength. --Ps 18:1

1 Peter 1:6-9
In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. These have come so that your faith?of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire?may be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed. Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls.

Want to shine brighter and brighter 'til the full light of day???

Follow His Way, His truth, His word!

Proverbs 4

 18 The path of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn,
       shining ever brighter till the full light of day.

 19 But the way of the wicked is like deep darkness;
       they do not know what makes them stumble.

 20 My son, pay attention to what I say;
       listen closely to my words.

 21 Do not let them out of your sight,
       keep them within your heart;

 22 for they are life to those who find them
       and health to a man's whole body.

 23 Above all else, guard your heart,
       for it is the wellspring of life.

Isaiah 44:6-8
Thus says the LORD, the King of Israel and his Redeemer, the LORD of
hosts: ‘I am the first and I am the last, And there is no God besides Me.
And who can proclaim as I do? Then let him declare it and set it in order
for Me, since I appointed the ancient people. And the things that are
coming and shall come, let them show these to them. Do not fear, nor be
afraid; Have I not told you from that time, and declared it ? You are My
witnesses. Is there a God besides Me? Indeed there is no other Rock; I
know not one .




Jesus the Rock
The Rock a firm place to stand
All other ground is sinking sand --Mt 7:24-29
Jesus No other Rock, I know not one --Isa 44:8
The Rock from which living waters flow --1 Cor 10:4
Jesus the Rock, the living word
His house, a spiritual house of living stones --1 Pe 2:4-5
His house built and established by His word.

Matthew 7:24-25
Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them,
may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock. And
the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed
against that house; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on the
rock.


1 Corinthians 3:11
For no man can lay a foundation other than the one which is laid, which is
Jesus Christ.


1 Peter 2:4-8
As you come to Him, the living Stone {the Cornerstone} —rejected by men
but chosen by God and precious—
you also, as living stones, are being built up as a spiritual house for a
holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through
Jesus Christ. For this is contained in Scripture:
... "BEHOLD, I LAY IN ZION A CHOICE STONE, A PRECIOUS CORNER stone,
... AND HE WHO BELIEVES IN HIM WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED."
This precious value, then, is for you who believe; but for those who
disbelieve,
... "THE STONE WHICH THE BUILDERS REJECTED,
... THIS BECAME THE VERY CORNER stone,"and,
... "A STONE OF STUMBLING AND A ROCK OF OFFENSE";
... for they stumble because they are disobedient to the word, and to this
doom they were also appointed.

Jeremiah 4:19
O my soul, my soul! I writhe in pain. Oh, the agony of my heart! My heart
pounds within me, I cannot keep silent. For I hear the sound of the
trumpet; the sound of the battle cry pierces my soul!


Hear the sound of the trumpet, the alarm of war
A battle cry that pierces the soul
The battle between the Spirit of Truth and the Spirit of Error --1 Jn 4:6

The Spirit of Error comes to destroy and steal the Truth
Do not be decieved

ALL the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth,
... To such as keep His covenant and His testimonies. --Ps 25:10

Speak the Truth BOLDLY in love. --Eph 4:15

God's law, you fight for it tooth and nail.


Jn 14:15, 23-24
If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.

Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My
word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our
home with him. He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and
the word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father?s who sent Me."

Do not keep silent
Speak the Truth BOLDLY in love. --Eph 4:15

I ASSURE you, most solemnly I tell you, he who does not enter by the door into the sheepfold, but climbs up some other way (elsewhere, from some other quarter) is a thief and a robber. But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. - John 10:1-2

So Jesus said again, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, that I Myself am the Door for the sheep. All others who came [as such] before Me are thieves and robbers, but the [true] sheep did not listen to and obey them. - John 10:7-8 Psalm 43:5
Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your
hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God.


Are you in the midst of a storm waiting for it to pass?
Do not focus on the storm
Hope in the LORD
Praise Him yet more & more
Dance THRU the rain as a little child
For yet will you see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living
Yet will you praise your Savior, your God!

goodness of the LORD
In the land of the living.

And will praise You yet more and more.
