Put on love

 

Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

Colossians 3:12-17 ESV

Unity of mind

 

I am so thankful and relieved that we didn't see the violence that was anticipated this past week. I am also exceedingly thankful for the men and women who serve in our National Guard. They are a blessing to our country.

Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind. Do not repay evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary, bless, for to this you were called, that you may obtain a blessing. For

“Whoever desires to love life

    and see good days,

let him keep his tongue from evil

    and his lips from speaking deceit;

let him turn away from evil and do good;

    let him seek peace and pursue it.

For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,

    and his ears are open to their prayer.

But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”

1 Peter 3:8-12 ESV

But sin is a reproach to any people.

Bless our nation

 

Let all the earth fear the Lord;

Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.

For He spoke, and it was done;

He commanded, and it stood fast.

The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing;

He makes the plans of the peoples of no effect.

The counsel of the Lord stands forever,

The plans of His heart to all generations.

Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord,

The people He has chosen as His own inheritance.

The Lord looks from heaven;

He sees all the sons of men.

From the place of His dwelling He looks

On all the inhabitants of the earth;

He fashions their hearts individually;

He considers all their works.

No king is saved by the multitude of an army;

A mighty man is not delivered by great strength.

A horse is a vain hope for safety;

Neither shall it deliver any by its great strength.

Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him,

On those who hope in His mercy,

To deliver their soul from death,

And to keep them alive in famine.

Our soul waits for the Lord;

He is our help and our shield.

For our heart shall rejoice in Him,

Because we have trusted in His holy name.

Let Your mercy, O Lord, be upon us,

Just as we hope in You.

Psalm 33:8-22 NKJV

Pray for our nation

 

I read this on a church's website and it was perfect for what's on my heart this week, however, it didn't say what version it was. I looked up several and none of them were worded quite this way:

“I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them. Pray in this way for kings and all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and dignity.” 

1 Timothy 2:1-5

Compare to NIV:

I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people— for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus,

1 Timothy 2:1-5 NIV

We need this prayer this week for our nation and our fellow Americans. Please join me in praying for all people. Pray for "all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and dignity.” Pray for peace and unity among God's children that we may celebrate and embrace our differences instead of allowing them to divide us.

The Scriptures will be fulfilled

Then Jesus said to him, “Put your sword back into its place. For all who take the sword will perish by the sword. Do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father, and he will at once send me more than twelve legions of angels? But how then should the Scriptures be fulfilled, that it must be so?” Matthew 26:52-54 ESV

Kingship Belongs to the Lord

For kingship belongs to the Lord, and He rules over the nations. 

(Psalm 22:28 ESV)

Pray for our government - Day 3

No matter which side you're on, I'm sure we can all agree (hopefully) that it's a good idea to Pray for our Government from the local level all the way up to the top; present and future.

Encouragement as we pray for our government

Remember always that God brings into authority those who are necessary to fulfill His plan.

Daniel 2:21 (ESV)
He changes times and seasons; He removes kings and sets up kings; He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding;
Daniel 4:17 (ESV)
The sentence is by the decree of the watchers, the decision by the word of the holy ones, to the end that the living may know that the Most High rules the kingdom of men and gives it to whom He will and sets over it the lowliest of men.’

Pray for our government

   With the mid-term elections coming up, (but without getting political), I think this would be a good time to pray for our government, existing and future.
   I'm taking a bible study class about 1 Peter. In Peter's Epistle, he speaks about how we're to treat others, and in Chapter 2 verses 13-17, he specifically talks about government:

 "Therefore submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake, 

whether to the king as supreme, or to governors, 

as to those who are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers 

and for the praise of those who do good. 

For this is the will of God, that by doing good 

you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men—  

as free, yet not using liberty as a cloak for vice, 

but as bondservants of God. Honor all people. 

Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king." (NKJ)

   So, no matter if we're happy or unhappy with our leaders, we should pray for them. I often pray that God uses our leaders to glorify Him and to guide them to fulfill His holy plan. I often pray that God will give our government the knowledge and skill to make informed decisions that affect our country and our world.

First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, 

and thanksgivings be made for all people, 

for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead 

a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. 

This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior,

1 Timothy 2:1-3 ESV 

If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.

Mark 3:24 ESV
