Proverbs 29, Be doers of the Word!

Pro 29:2, When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan

This is where we are at as a nation; the wicked are ruling. Today I read that judges have sided with the Biden admin forcing Christian colleges to allow men to take showers with the ladies? ALL THEY WANT IS TO PERVERT THE MINDS OF THE YOUNG AND VULNERABLE!

Deu 16:18-19, “You shall appoint judges and officers in all your gates, which the LORD your God gives you, according to your tribes, and they shall judge the people with just judgment. YOU SHALL NOT PERVERT JUSTICE; YOU SHALL NOT SHOW PARTIALITY, NOR TAKE A BRIBE, FOR A BRIBE BLINDS THE EYES OF THE WISE AND TWISTS THE WORDS OF THE RIGHTEOUS.

Pro 29:7, The righteous considers the cause of the poor, BUT THE WICKED DOES NOT UNDERSTAND SUCH KNOWLEDGE.

The righteous man understands that he lends to the LORD when he is generous to the poor. But a wicked man can’t see how giving to the poor would benefit anything?

Psa 41:1, …BLESSED IS HE WHO CONSIDERS THE POOR; THE LORD WILL DELIVER HIM IN TIME OF TROUBLE. 

Pro 29:15, THE ROD AND REBUKE GIVE WISDOM, BUT A CHILD LEFT TO HIMSELF BRINGS SHAME TO HIS MOTHER.

He who disciplines their child loves them enough to correct them. It’s up to the parents to direct their children in the way of righteousness!  For whom the LORD loves HE corrects, Pro 3:12 / Heb 12:6

Pro 22:15, Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child; The rod of correction will drive it far from him. 

Pro 29:18, Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint; But happy is he who keeps the law. 

Without guidance from the LORD, people would do what is right in their own eyes! But the word of GOD gives us direction if we do what it says! Knowing and not doing doesn’t benefit anyone!

Jas 1:22, BUT BE DOERS OF THE WORD, AND NOT HEARERS ONLY, DECEIVING YOURSELVES.

Ezr 7:10, FOR EZRA HAD PREPARED HIS HEART TO SEEK THE LAW OF THE LORD, AND TO DO IT, AND TO TEACH STATUTES AND ORDINANCES IN ISRAEL.

Psalm 128, Blessing the family!

Psa 128:1, BLESSED IS EVERY ONE WHO FEARS THE LORD, WHO WALKS IN HIS WAYS. 

Being bless by GOD is not dependent on your race, wealth, or intelligence! The LORD show no favoritism to any man/woman, but if you walk in HIS ways then HE will bless you!

Act 10:34, Then Peter opened his mouth and said: “IN TRUTH I PERCEIVE THAT GOD SHOWS NO PARTIALITY.

Luk 1:6, And they were both righteous before God, WALKING IN ALL THE COMMANDMENTS AND ORDINANCES OF THE LORD BLAMELESS.

Psa 128:2, When you eat the labor of your hands, You shall be happy, and it shall be well with you.  

Those that walk in HIS ways will be bless in the work of their hands! Being able to provide for their families!

Psa 128:3, YOUR WIFE SHALL BE LIKE A FRUITFUL VINE IN THE VERY HEART OF YOUR HOUSE, YOUR CHILDREN LIKE OLIVE PLANTS ALL AROUND YOUR TABLE.

Those that walk in HIS ways will be bless with a happy home! Being bless with an awesome wife, like mine!!, and awesome kids! Like mine as well!  NOT A PERFECT WIFE OR KIDS, BUT A HAPPY HOME!

Psa 128:4, BEHOLD, THUS SHALL THE MAN BE BLESSED WHO FEARS THE LORD. 

The LORD will bless the work of your hand, HE will bless your family and kids! Remember, life if short, but HIS blessing are eternal for those that follow HIM!

1Ti 4:8, For bodily exercise profits a little, BUT GODLINESS IS PROFITABLE FOR ALL THINGS, HAVING PROMISE OF THE LIFE THAT NOW IS AND OF THAT WHICH IS TO COME. 

Psa 128:6, YES, MAY YOU SEE YOUR CHILDREN’S CHILDREN. PEACE BE UPON ISRAEL! 

Psa 127:3, BEHOLD, CHILDREN ARE A HERITAGE FROM THE LORD, THE FRUIT OF THE WOMB IS A REWARD. 

How does one walk in HIS ways? First you need to SEEK THE LORD AND HIS WORD! Then, Like Ezra, YOU NEED TO DO WHAT HE TELLS YOU TO DO; NOT JUST HEARING OR READING IT BUT DOING IT! THEN TEACH OTHERS! 

Ezr 7:10, FOR EZRA HAD PREPARED HIS HEART TO SEEK THE LAW OF THE LORD, AND TO DO IT, AND TO TEACH STATUTES AND ORDINANCES IN ISRAEL.

Psalm 112, Trust in the LORD!

Psa 112:1, Praise the LORD! BLESSED IS THE MAN WHO FEARS THE LORD, WHO DELIGHTS GREATLY IN HIS COMMANDMENTS.

It doesn’t say, blessed is the man who is scared of the LORD, that would be common sense! Blessed in the man who reveres the LORD and does what HE commands to do!

Luk 1:50, And HIS MERCY IS ON THOSE WHO FEAR HIM From generation to generation. 

Psa 112:2-3, His descendants will be mighty on earth; The generation of the upright will be blessed. Wealth and riches will be in his house, And his righteousness endures forever.

The man who reveres the LORD his family will be blessed! Wealth and riches will be in his house, BECAUSE THEIR FATHER, THE LORD, OWNS EVERYTHING, AND SUPPLIES HIS OWN!

Psa 37:25, I have been young, and now am old; YET I HAVE NOT SEEN THE RIGHTEOUS FORSAKEN, NOR HIS DESCENDANTS BEGGING BREAD. 

Psa 112:4, Unto the upright there arises light in the darkness; He is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.

In times of great uncertainty, and darkness, those that revere the LORD will still rejoice knowing their FATHER is in full control! HE IS OUR LIGHT, HE IS OUR HOPE, HE IS OUR STRENGTH, AND SAVIOR!  JESUS SAID..

Joh 12:46, I HAVE COME AS A LIGHT INTO THE WORLD, THAT WHOEVER BELIEVES IN ME SHOULD NOT ABIDE IN DARKNESS. 

Psa 112:7, He will not be afraid of evil tidings; His heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.

The upright will not be afraid of bad news (evil tidings) for his hearth is set on the ROCK, and shall not be moved!

Psa 62:5-6, My soul, wait silently for God alone, FOR MY EXPECTATION IS FROM HIM. HE ONLY IS MY ROCK AND MY SALVATION; HE IS MY DEFENSE; I SHALL NOT BE MOVED.

This is not about us it’s about the LORD and what HE has done for us! We are righteous because HE has removed our filthy garments and replaced them with HIS own! Put your trust in the LORD!

Isa 61:10, I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, My soul shall be joyful in my God; FOR HE HAS CLOTHED ME WITH THE GARMENTS OF SALVATION, HE HAS COVERED ME WITH THE ROBE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, …

Psalm 67, Righteous JUDGE!

Psa 67:1, …God be merciful to us and bless us, And cause His face to shine upon us, Selah 

The LORD gave this blessing to Moses in order to teach Aaron and his sons, The High Priests, how to bless the children of Israel!

Num 6:24-26, “The LORD bless you and keep you; The LORD make His face shine upon you, And be gracious to you; The LORD lift up His countenance upon you, And give you peace.” ‘

Psa 67:2, THAT YOUR WAY MAY BE KNOWN ON EARTH, YOUR SALVATION AMONG ALL NATIONS. 

By readings, and learning from the scriptures we may know HIS way; but, applying what you have learned in scripture to your life is when the true blessing come! NOT JUST KNOWING BUT DOING!

Mat 7:21, “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, BUT HE WHO DOES THE WILL OF MY FATHER IN HEAVEN. 

It’s not about us, but it’s all about HIM!

Eph 6:6-7, not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, BUT AS BONDSERVANTS OF CHRIST, DOING THE WILL OF GOD FROM THE HEART, WITH GOODWILL DOING SERVICE, AS TO THE LORD, AND NOT TO MEN,

Psa 67:4, Oh, let the nations be glad and sing for joy! FOR YOU SHALL JUDGE THE PEOPLE RIGHTEOUSLY, AND GOVERN THE NATIONS ON EARTH. SELAH 

Today, our Godless leaders want to pack the court in order to get the results they want! It’s not justice they seek, but corruption!

Lev 19:15, ‘YOU SHALL DO NO INJUSTICE IN JUDGMENT. YOU SHALL NOT BE PARTIAL TO THE POOR, NOR HONOR THE PERSON OF THE MIGHTY. IN RIGHTEOUSNESS YOU SHALL JUDGE YOUR NEIGHBOR. 

BUT soon the LORD shall judge the world in righteousness!

Isa 11:3-4a, … And HE SHALL NOT JUDGE BY THE SIGHT OF HIS EYES, NOR DECIDE BY THE HEARING OF HIS EARS; BUT WITH RIGHTEOUSNESS HE SHALL JUDGE THE POOR, AND DECIDE WITH EQUITY FOR THE MEEK OF THE EARTH;

Righteous judgement is coming where even the thoughts in your mind shall be judged! SEEK HIM AND DO GOOD!

Ezra 7, living the word of GOD!

Ezr 7:1,5, Now after these things, IN THE REIGN OF ARTAXERXES KING OF PERSIA, EZRA THE SON OF SERAIAH… THE SON OF AARON..

Ezra came to Jerusalem in the second wave of people returning to their homeland!

Ezr 7:6, this Ezra came up from Babylon; and HE WAS A SKILLED SCRIBE IN THE LAW OF MOSES, WHICH THE LORD GOD OF ISRAEL HAD GIVEN. THE KING GRANTED HIM ALL HIS REQUEST, ACCORDING TO THE HAND OF THE LORD HIS GOD UPON HIM. 

This king Artaxerxes Longimanus was the son Artaxerxes found in Ezra 4:7. Whereas the father stopped the work of GOD; his son blessed and funded the work of GOD!

Ezr 7:10, FOR EZRA HAD PREPARED HIS HEART TO SEEK THE LAW OF THE LORD, AND TO DO IT, AND TO TEACH STATUTES AND ORDINANCES IN ISRAEL.

Ezra was a blessed man, not just because he knew the word of the LORD, but because he lived it! KNOWING HIS WORD AND DOING IT ARE TWO DIFFERENT THINGS! JESUS SAID…

Mat 7:24, “THEREFORE WHOEVER HEARS THESE SAYINGS OF MINE, AND DOES THEM, I WILL LIKEN HIM TO A WISE MAN WHO BUILT HIS HOUSE ON THE ROCK:

Eph 5:15-17, SEE THEN THAT YOU WALK CIRCUMSPECTLY, NOT AS FOOLS BUT AS WISE, REDEEMING THE TIME, BECAUSE THE DAYS ARE EVIL. THEREFORE DO NOT BE UNWISE, BUT UNDERSTAND WHAT THE WILL OF THE LORD IS.

IF WE TRULY BELIEVE THAT OUR BLESSED HOPE IS AT THE DOOR AND READY TO RETURN THEN WE MUST BE ABOUT OUR FATHERS BUSINESS, REDEEMING THE TIME! JESUS SAID THE FOLLOWING!

Mat 24:46, BLESSED IS THAT SERVANT WHOM HIS MASTER, WHEN HE COMES, WILL FIND SO DOING. 

NOT JUST KNOWING HIS WORD BUT DOING IT!

2Chronicles 31, Blessings comes from the LORD!

2Ch 31:3, MOREOVER HE COMMANDED THE PEOPLE WHO DWELT IN JERUSALEM TO CONTRIBUTE SUPPORT FOR THE PRIESTS AND THE LEVITES, THAT THEY MIGHT DEVOTE THEMSELVES TO THE LAW OF THE LORD.

The offering given to the church belongs to the LORD! In fact everything we earn, everything we have, and see comes from the LORD!

Job 41:11, Who has preceded Me, that I should pay him? Everything under heaven is Mine. 

Lev 27:30, And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the tree, IS THE LORD’S. IT IS HOLY TO THE LORD.

Some may say, “I just don’t have or make enough to give to the LORD”? TRUTH ME BE THAT YOU DON’T HAVE BECAUSE YOU DON’T GIVE

Mal 3:8-10, “Will a man rob God? Yet you have robbed Me! But you say, ‘In what way have we robbed You?’ IN TITHES AND OFFERINGS. You are cursed with a curse, For you have robbed Me, Even this whole nation. Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, That there may be food in My house, AND TRY ME NOW IN THIS,” Says the LORD of hosts, “IF I WILL NOT OPEN FOR YOU THE WINDOWS OF HEAVEN AND POUR OUT FOR YOU SUCH BLESSING THAT THERE WILL NOT BE ROOM ENOUGH TO RECEIVE IT.

When we put GOD and HIS kingdom first, HE promises to meet our needs! TRY ME NOW ON THIS! REMEMBER HE CAN’T LIE!

Mat 6:33, BUT SEEK FIRST THE KINGDOM OF GOD AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND ALL THESE THINGS SHALL BE ADDED TO YOU. 

2Ch 31:21, And in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, in the law and in the commandment, to seek his God, HE DID IT WITH ALL HIS HEART. SO HE PROSPERED. 

King Hezekiah’s service to the LORD was done with all his heart, and the LORD blessed him! HE IS FAITHFUL AND HE KNOWS WHAT YOU NEED EVEN BEFORE YOU ASK! SEEK HIM AND HIS KINGDOM WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND HE SHALL BLESS YOU MORE THAN YOU IMAGINE!

1Chronicles 14, Giving Credit to HIM!

1Ch 14:2, So David knew that the LORD had established him as king over Israel, for his kingdom was highly exalted FOR THE SAKE OF HIS PEOPLE ISRAEL. 

David knew that his exaltation was for the benefit of Israel!

1Ki 10:9, Blessed be the LORD your God, who delighted in you, setting you on the throne of Israel! BECAUSE THE LORD HAS LOVED ISRAEL FOREVER, THEREFORE HE MADE YOU KING, to do justice and righteousness.” 

1Ch 14:11, So they went up to Baal Perazim, and David defeated them there. Then David said, “God has broken through my enemies by my hand like a breakthrough of water…

It’s so easy to take credit for a great victory, yet David clearly gives credit to GOD!

Psa 144:1, Blessed be the LORD my Rock, WHO TRAINS MY HANDS FOR WAR, AND MY FINGERS FOR BATTLE

1Ch 14:16-17, SO DAVID DID AS GOD COMMANDED HIM, and they drove back the army of the Philistines from Gibeon as far as Gezer. Then the fame of David went out into all lands, and the LORD BROUGHT THE FEAR OF HIM UPON ALL NATIONS.

There is a blessing when we obey GOD and do what HIS will!

Joh 13:17, IF YOU KNOW THESE THINGS, BLESSED ARE YOU IF YOU DO THEM. 

SEEK THE LORD, DO WHAT HE ASKED OF YOU AND GIVE HIM THE GLORYL; FOR IT IS HE THAT HAS GIVING YOU THE ABILITY TO DO IT!
