Checking into God's Presence… "Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that, as a man chasteneth his son, so the Lord thy God chasteneth thee. Therefore thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him. For the Lord thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and hills; A land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig trees, and pomegranates; a land of oil olive, and honey; A land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, thou shalt not lack any thing in it; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills thou mayest dig brass. When thou hast eaten and art full, then thou shalt bless the Lord thy God for the good land which he hath given thee. Beware that thou forget not the Lord thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his judgments, and his statutes, which I command thee this day: Lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt therein;" Deuteronomy 8: 5-12 Believers, "beware that thou forget not the Lord thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his judgments, and his statutes, which I command thee this day: Lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt therein". Therefore oh Lord, empower us to keep the commandments of Thee oh Lord thy God, to walk in Your ways and also to fear You. For You our Lord and God will bring us "into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and hills; A land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig trees, and pomegranates; a land of oil olive, and honey; A land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, thou shalt not lack any thing in it; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills" that we may dig brass and be comforted. Indeed, we may have been forsaken and hated, oh Lord, and with no joy travelling through to us: Father, we plead that You will make us an everlasting pride and joy to all generations. Declare with Your Name that no longer shall violence be heard in our lands nor ruin and destruction within our borders: but that You oh Lord will call our walls Salvation and our gates Praise in Jesus name. Amen Http://testimony-times.blogspot.co.uk Just Checking into His Presence...
