Psalm 3

Lord how they are increased who trouble me! Many are they who rise up against me.
Many are saying of me, There is no help for him in God. Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]!
But You, O Lord, are a shield for me, my glory, and the lifter of my head.
With my voice I cry to the Lord, and He hears and answers me out of His holy hill. Selah [pause and calmly think of that]!
I lay down and slept; I wakened again, for the Lord sustains me.
I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people who have st themselves against me round about.
Arise, O Lord; save me O my God! For You have struck all my enemies on the cheek; You have broken the teeth of the ungodly.
Salvation belongs to the Lord; May Your blessing be  upon Your people. Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]!

Proverbs 10:3 AMP

The Lord will not allow the [uncompromisingly] righteous to famish, but He thwarts the desire of the wicked.

Proverbs 9:10-11 AMP

The reverent and worshipful fear of the Lord is the beginning (the chief and choice part) of Wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight and understanding
For by me [Wisdom from God] your days shall be multiplied, and the years of your life shall be increased.

Psalm 1:1-6 AMP

Blessed (happy, fortunate, prosperous, and enviable) is the man who walks and lives not in the counsel of the ungodly [following their advice, their plans and purposes], nor stands [submissive and inactive] in the path where sinners walk, nor sits down [to relax and rest] where the scornful [and mockers] gather. 
But his delight and desire are in the law of the Lord, and on His law (the precepts, the instructions, the teaching of 'God) he habitually meditates (ponders and studies) by day and by night. 
And he shall be like a tree firmly planted [and tended] by the streams of water, ready to bring forth its fruit in its season; its leaf also shall not fade or wither; and everything he does shall prosper [and come to maturity]
Not so the wicked [those disobedient and living without God are not so] But they are like the chaff [worthless, dead, without substance] which the wind drives away.
Therefore the wicked [those disobedient and living without God] shall not stand [justified] in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous [those who are upright and in right standing with God].
For the Lord knows and is fully acquainted with the way of the righteous, but the way of the ungodly [those living outside God's will] shall perish (end in ruin and come to nought).

    Take Care.

The weekly word: Further than what I want to be

The weekly word: Further than what I want to be: "Hosea 7:1–9 (AV) 1 When I would have healed Israel, then the iniquity of Ephraim was discovered, and the wickedness of Samaria: for ..."

Proverbs 4:23-27 AMP

Keep and guard your heart with all vigilance and above all that you guard, for out of it flow the springs of life.  Put away from you false and dishonest speech and willful and contrary talk put far from you.  Let your eyes look right on [with fixed purpose], and let your gaze be straight before you.  Consider well the path of your feet, and let all your ways be established and ordered aright.  Turn not aside to the right hand or to the left; remove your foot from evil.

July 4th, 2011

    As I write today, on America's day of Independence, I think about the ministry God has intrusted into our hands.  Sold Out Ministries of Ozone Park will start its 4th year in September 2011.  I pray for God to have His way with us and this ministry, may Gods will be done,  in Jesus name, amen.

Proverbs 3:5-8 Amplified Bible

Lean on, trust in, and be confident in the Lord with all your heart and mind and do not rely on your own insight or understanding.  In all your ways know, recognize, and acknowledge Him, and He will direct and make straight and plain your  paths.  Be not wise in your own eyes; reverently fear and worship the Lord and turn [entirely] away from evil.  It shall be health to your nerves, sinews, marrow, and moistening to your bones.

Jeremiah 29:11-14 Amplified Bible

For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome.  Then you will call upon Me, and you will come and pray to Me, and I will hear and heed you.  Then you will seek Me, inquire for and require Me [as a vital necessity] and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.  I will be found by you, says the Lord, and I will release you from captivity and gather you from all the nations and all the places to which I have driven you, says the Lord, and I will bring you back to the place from which I caused you to be carried away captive.

Proverbs 2:4-16a Amplified

If you seek Wisdom as for silver and search for skillful and godly Wisdom as for hidden treasures, then you will understand the reverent and worshipful fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of ( our omniscient) God.  For the Lord gives skillful and godly Wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding.  He hides away sound and godly Wisdom and stores it for  the righteous (those who are upright and in right standing with Him); He is a shield to those who walk uprightly and in integrity, that He may guard the paths of justice; yes, He preserves the way of His saints.  Then you will understand righteousness, justice, and fair dealing [in every area and relation]; yes, you will understand every good path.  For skillful and godly Wisdom shall enter into your heart, and knowledge shall be pleasant to you.  Discretion shall watch over you, understanding shall keep you.  To deliver your from the way of evil and the evil men, from men who speak perverse things and are liars, men who forsake the paths of uprightness to walk in the ways of darkness, who rejoice to do evil and delight in the perverseness of evil, who are crooked in their ways, wayward and devious in their paths. Discretion shall watch over you, understanding shall keep you ...

For God's Glory

For now on, I will be using this blog for God's glory.  If I need it for school again, I'll use it for both.  God Bless you all!!!
