Psalm 111:10


Psalm 111:10- The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; A good understanding have all those who do His commandments. His praise forever.
: this verse in Psalm 111,talks about the fear of the Lord that all believers should have , since its beneficial for the believer to have the Fear of the Lord in his life ; lets go over what the Fear of the Lord even means . to have the fear of the Lord means to have a obedient response of the wonder and awe before the Most High God.  now, lets think about that word 'obediance'. obediance means to obey the authority of a person who is more advanced in age and or a person that has more wisdom than us and more knowledge. like a mom or dad , or sensei, or maybe a grandmother , grandfather, or principal , or , how about God? If we have obediance for the awe and wonder of our Father in Heaven, our walk with Him will be sweet, blessed , and filled with His divine grace and mercy. the fear of the Lord is very important when it comes to walking with God. Before we even think of doing the Lords work out in the mission field, we need to fear or obey the Lord first, And also,  we need to have self control as well, especially over our actions . In James 1:19-20 , James tells us we need to be 'swift to hear, slow to speak,and slow to wrath.' Now if we think about these things, we think about how much these traits will help us in our walk with God. lets put all these things together now . Fear the Lord, be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to wrath. if we do these things, our walk a descipleship shall be easy right? good news, yes! bad news, no. still we will have trials in our walk , no matter what we do or how we act. But here is the good thing , the trials God allows into our lives, are to get us ready for the big stuff that is awaiting us across the river bend . There is a old Chinese proverb I once heard a while back, it goes like this ' A diamond can not be polished without friction, nor a man perfected without trials' this chinese proverb is very true, without God allowing trials into our lives, how are we supposed to be ready for the real deal , like surviving in a foreign country, or sharing the Gospel with many?  If we fear God, and let Him perfect us, then he will prepare us fully for the mission field and will be there to back us up when we need it the most.  Fearing the Lord is essential for the work  we are about to do. we should fear Him greatly .

APPLICATION: today on I will fear the Lord and allow Him to take full control over my life, im tired of fighting, tired of trying to do things on my own when God keeps telling me " dont worry my daughter , ive got this,just trust in Me." Go ahead Father . take full control. I ready.

Luke 21 ;19

Luke 21:19 - By your patience, possess your souls. : Here Jesus is talking about patience. " By patience, possess your souls." Patience is key in a believers walk with our heavenly Father. If we are patient, and wait on Him, He will certainly back us up in our spiritual walk with Him, especially in our troubling  times. Our God is a just God, a awesome God who delights in the patience of His children. If we are not patient and don't wait on God, this will grieve our Father immensily . Being patient in tough circumstances is beneficial to the christians way of life. we must always remember that , our Father has our back , no matter how hard the day may be or how loud the spiritual warfare in our heads may get. APPLICATION : Tomorrow, I will be patient if spiritual warfare or conflict comes my way. i will give all my frustrations and worries to my Father in Heaven and will always keep in mind that in tough trials, He has my back, if only I cry out to Him.

Faith

Hebrews 11:1- Now faith is the substance of things hoped for,the evidence of things unseen : In this verse .it talks about how faith is the substance of things hoped for . Jesus said "If we have faith as small as a mustard seed, we can move mountains." This is very true !!  if we believe in the Lord our God , whom is very much real but yet unseen , and if we put all our faith in Him, He can help us in the thick and thin of our every day life . Believe it or not, I learned that during my childhood. I had a childhood experience that I will never forget. I know this may sound very far fetched, but, it is the truth that I know most people who have had the same incident happen, would definitley believe. I must have been 7 years of age at the time when this took place . It was a week after my 7th birthday that me and my friend were playing with a flying disc, or as it is called ,frisby at the time in the backyard and were laughing and carrying on like children do, when my frien

Hebrews 13:5

  Hebrews 13:5 - Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself said "I will never leave you, nor forsake you." : In this verse, as we read we notice that it tells us to be content with the things we have and not be covetous.Being content with what we have can sometimes be a bit difficult. as humans, we tend to want more and more or tend to become envious of what others have that we don't. We have the urge to crave more and have more, yet forgetting that we should be happy with what God has provided for us. although there are even some people out there who are content with what our father has provided for them. One such soul was a coal miner, he was dirt poor with only the bread on his table and wore shaggy tattered clothes, he also lived in a shack by himself that was worn down and could easily fall over any day. The question was, did that man complain? No! in fact he said the most heartwarming thing that he could
