They walked in THE FEAR OF THE LORD and in THE COMFORT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT...
God's Word gives us both, and oftentimes certain verses are distinctly more one or the other. Some tend to warn us with the eternal, spiritual consequences of some heart attitude, in order to correct us, while others provide comfort to us, encouraging us that the Lord does reward faith as they reveal to us more about Him and His love for us. This series of posts of God's Word will seek to point to specific passages as apparently expressing to us more of one than the other.
* Some people to pray for:*
The church, all children, all those believers suffering for their witness to Christ, the oppressed, the falsely accused and false convicted, those who serve and protect others, the poor and the homeless, the children with no human beings to protect them, but are being abused by those who should protect them, the children in the womb, and all those fighting to protect them, those with addictions to drugs and alcohol, all of our leaders in the church, especially those who sincerely love the Lord, our leaders in the world, including the Trumps and Pences, those who are possessed or oppressed by demons, and those who are lost at this time.
If you would like on or off this list, just let me know.
Thanks, Faith. Deer season is getting serious where I am. I’m sitting on a deer stand as I write this. I’ll try to write more after studying these verses. But I find some of them rather unsettling. Certainly I wonder today if I don’t live in a place that is also worse off than Sodom.
