The Lord delights in those who fear him Day 3

Psalm 147:10-11
10 His pleasure is not in the strength of the horse, nor his delight in the legs of the warrior;
11 the Lord delights in those who fear him, who put their hope in his unfailing love.

Do we want to make our God happy? Then we need to fear him, we need to put our hope in his unfailing love. His pleasure is not in our abilities, talents, achievements, strength….

Also, God does not delight in our sacrifice. The sacrifice he wanted from us is in Psalm 51.
v16 You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it; you do not take pleasure in burnt offerings.
v17 My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart you, God, will not despise.
v19 Then you will delight in the sacrifices of the righteous, in burnt offerings offered whole; then bulls will be offered on your altar.

Application

What are some areas we struggle to put our hope in his unfailing love? Pray through those. Determine to have a broken and contrite heart.

The fear of the Lord is pure, enduring forever Day 2

Psalm 19:9
The fear of the LORD is pure, enduring forever. The decrees of the LORD are firm, and all of them are righteous.

The fear of the Lord is a brief description for true religion. It is an inward condition, betokening hearty submission to our heavenly Father. It consists very much in a holy reverence of God, and a sacred awe of him. This is accompanied by a child-like trust in him, which leads to loving obedience, tender submission, and lowly adoration - Charles Spurgeon

Matthew 18:3 - And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Are we child-like or childish?

Application

What qualities of little children God might be talking about? List down and pray through it.

Fear The Lord

Fear the Lord your God Day 1

Deuteronomy 10:12-13
12 And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God ask of you but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in obedience to him, to love him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul,
13 and to observe the Lord’s commands and decrees that I am giving you today for your own good?

This is what God wanted from each of us. ‘Fear the Lord your God’ is number one in the list and when we follow that, there is an assurance we can follow the rest. When we don’t follow that there is great possibility that we are not following the rest of it.

Why we need to fear?
 v14 To the Lord your God belong the heavens, even the highest heavens, the earth and everything in it.
 v17 For the Lord your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome, who shows no partiality and accepts no bribes.
 v18 He defends the cause of the fatherless and the widow, and loves the foreigner residing among you, giving them food and clothing.

Application

Do you think you fear the Lord? What are some changes you can notice when you fear the Lord?

আমি সদাপ্রভুর অপেক্ষায় আছি, আমার অন্তর তাঁর অপেক্ষায় আছে। আমি তাঁর বাক্যে আশা রেখেছি।
