O WHAT PEACE AND JOY!!!
September 1, 2024GAIUS, THE ELDER – “WALKING THE TRUTH”
September 3, 2024The LORD God Almighty, the God of all creation, the God of the Bible, is Someone who is good, gracious and merciful, in all His dealings with us. If not for God’s grace and mercy, we would have been decimated and destroyed long back.
– “8 The LORD is merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abounding in mercy. 9 He will not always strive with us, Nor will He keep His anger forever. 10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins, Nor punished us according to our iniquities.” – Psalm 103:8-10
The LORD is gracious, merciful and kind towards us, because He knows that, we are frail and fragile. He knows that our lives are like vapour and grass. Therefore, He wants to give us another opportunity for our good.
– “13 As a father pities his children, So the LORD pities those who fear Him. 14 For He knows our frame; He remembers that we are dust. 15 As for man, his days are like grass; As a flower of the field, so he flourishes. 16 For the wind passes over it, and it is gone, And its place remembers it no more.” – Psalm 103:13-16
Knowing who our God is, let us learn to seek Him, and obey Him. Let us learn to “fear” Him, and live for Him. May we be truly reflect the LORD who has been good, gracious and merciful towards us.
– “17…the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting On those who fear Him, And His righteousness to children’s children, 18 To such as keep His covenant, And to those who remember His commandments to do them.” – Psalm 103:17-18
