Fullness of Joy

"Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fullness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore."

(Psalm 16:11, KJV)

Continue forward with the Lord and He will show you the path of life.

Have you experienced the joy of the Lord? It's a deep down joy in your soul. Not a face value "I'm happy" but a joy that remains with you. Have you been in his presence in prayer? It's incredible to feel the joy and peace that floods your soul in the presence of the Master.

"And at his right hand there are pleasures for evermore." You just cannot beat the love and joy of God. He is wonderful and mighty and His love knows no bounds. As His child you can experience such love, joy, and peace that you won't be able to contain it.

No Other Name

“Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.”

~Acts 4:12, KJV

That seems pretty simple to me. There aren’t multiple names or different gods you can be saved under. There is only one name given to us that we can be saved by. 

I’m sure people will always find a way to argue but I cling to the Holy book that was divinely inspired as the foundation of my faith and way of living and it says there is no other way. So I fully believe that going under the blood of CHRIST specifically is the only way to be saved.

When Ye Fast

"Moreover, when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and was thy face. That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly."

~Matthew 6:16-18

Don't put on a show. This isn't about looking good in front of others or your pastor, it's about looking good in front of God.

Fasting is not a show for other people, it's between you and your heavenly Father. If you put on a show, then you already have your reward by all the people looking. If you do it for the right reasons just between you and God in secret then you shall be rewarded openly.

I know the Father's gifts will be much greater than any praise or recognition or reward that man could give me.

They Shall Be Afraid Of Thee

"The Lord shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways. The Lord shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses, and in all that thou wettest thine hand unto; and he shall bless thee in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee. The Lord shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as he hath sworn unto thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, and walk in His ways. And all the people of the earth shall see that thou art called by the name of the Lord; and they shall be afraid of thee."

~Deuteronomy 28:7-10

Everyone has enemies, especially as a Christian you will have enemies and they will rise up against you. and the Lord shall cause those enemies to be smitten. And even if they come up and attack you together they will flee seven ways from thee. 

If you keep the commandments of the Lord and hearken unto His voice (the earlier portion of these verses are in my last post) then he will bless thee and do these things for thee. And all the people of the earth shall SEE that thou art called by the name of the Lord, and they shall BE AFRAID OF THEE. Everyone will see that you are called by the name of the Lord. EVERYONE will see. That's pretty awesome. And people will be afraid of you because of your Great God. How awesome and wonderful.

Hearken Unto The Voice Of The Lord

"And all these blessing shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God. Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the field. Blessed shall be the fruit of they body, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep. Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store. Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed shalt thou be when thou goest out."

~Deuteronomy 28:2-6, KJV

If you hearken unto the voice of the Lord, these blessings will come and OVERTAKE thee. What a great and wonderful God we serve.

You shall be blessed in the city and field, and your body and animals and your store will all be blessed. You will be blessed coming in and going out. Just hearken unto the voice of the Lord, of your wonderful Father.
