(Please note we have a new look, hope you enjoy!)
It will soon be time for a new computer. My main computer is about 4 years old this month and is very over used! Now my Operating System Key will not work, and the OS doesn't seem to want to re install! Windows 7 here I come. (Hope that is a good thing!) Took 10 viruses off my laptop because of software I downloaded trying to fix my computer! People just don't get the principle of compassion and sharing! They always have to add something bad to something good! I am glad I serve a God, the Lord Jesus Christ, who is able to deliver!
Psalm 86
We are starting to get back to David's writings, and this one is full of goodness. There is so much in this song that we could spend many days learning from its instruction and prayer style, however I think that one verse will suffice for today.
Verse 11 "Teach me your way, O LORD; I will walk in your truth: unite my heart to fear your name."
This is amazing!
- First, David is asking for instruction. Instruction from God for life, in his situation & spiritual.
- Second, David is declaring his intentions; To walk in the truth that God gives him during his time of instruction. It is one thing to ask of God, but it is quite another thing to declare to God your absolute intention of following His Words once received. Many people have asked God for things, and even made a bargain with God, but few actually keep their word!
- Third, I really like this, David asks God to unite his heart for the purpose of fearing only God and His awesome powerful Name! Too, often we are torn between too many things in life, and we really don't have a focused heart or mind on any one thing. We need to reclaim our lives, our focus, our heart and our mind so that we can fully focus on one thing - Jesus our Lord and Saviour. Time is getting short, and we must work while it is day, but we must work as to God and not to man. Therefore, we can still live our lives to for the most part and still be completely focused on Jesus!
Yours for Truth, and Following the Instruction of God,
Pastor Fred
