saying, “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”
Luke 19:38, ESV
First the angels at His birth, and then Israelites at His triumphal entry into Jerusalem, gave glory to God at Jesus’ arrival. Someday [soon], all the [believing] world will celebrate Jesus’ return for His faithful!
“Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!”
Psalm 46:10, ESV
Our world is crazy and wicked.
But we can remember that God is in control and has a plan.
Wait on the Lord. Trust Him.
Now, due to errors in the WordPress app loading a couple of days VerseD’s before I went on a 3-day river trip, WP thinks I missed a few days in my run.
Sad.
So, I will just go with what they tell me … at least for today!
So, for 600 straight days, the internet has been getting VerseD in my thoughts on Scripture.
Do you feel well VerseD in the Bible?
I invite you to do two things:
It has been one of those blessed burdens to post these. I do not always feel like finding the strength, time, and energy to post these, but I am always blessed by my time in the Word. And a few brothers and sisters tend to come along and encourage me on those days it is the hardest to share or that I feel like I wasted my words.
Hopefully, on this Easter/Resurrection Sunday, you are blessed by my words and, more importantly, God’s Word.
In His Love,
Daniel
Those who sow in tears shall reap with shouts of joy!
Psalm 126:5, ESV
Before the cross, we lament our sin.
After the cross, we worship our God for His grace and love.
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
Romans 1:16, ESV
God’s power was manifest is raising our Savior to life. His power is manifested in every believer who is washed clean of their sins.
Have mercy on me, O God, according to your steadfast love; according to your abundant mercy blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin!
Psalm 51:1-2, ESV
When we humble ourselves, look inside and realize how sinful we are, we see the need for a Savior.
Thanks be to God He is our Savior, through the work of Jesus on the cross!
Seek the Lord , all you humble of the land, who do his just commands; seek righteousness; seek humility; perhaps you may be hidden on the day of the anger of the Lord.
Zephaniah 2:3, ESV
While not promised safety from everything in this world (but maybe!), we are promised that having sought the Lord and obeyed His Word, we are saved from His wrath on the Last Day!
and said, “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me”
Matthew 18:3-5, ESV
Children often admit they need help and know they don’t know everything.
Approach Christ this way.
We don’t know how deep our sin is or how salvation works, but we need Christ to save us.
The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof, the world and those who dwell therein
Psalm 24:1, ESV
God is the Creator of everything.
He deserves our worship.
And God is our Father and Savior.
He deserves our love.
A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.
Proverbs 15:1, ESV
How many fights come from misunderstanding and reacting?
This is why many legal codes state “presumed innocent.” Seek answers, gently approach, calmly discuss and rebuke (if necessary. Maybe you were the one to misunderstand.)
