To See or Not To See
My face in the mirror isn’t wrinkled or drawn; My house isn’t dirty the cobwebs are gone. My garden looks lovely and so does my lawn; I think I might never put my glasses back on!
Side Pain
At Sunday school they were teaching how God created everything, including human beings. Little Johnny seemed especially intent when they told him how Eve was created out of one of Adam's ribs.
Later in the week his mother noticed him lying down as though he were ill, and said, Johnny what is the matter? Little Johnny responded, "I have a pain in my side. I think I'm going to have a wife."
I have chosen the way of truth; Your judgments I have laid before me (Psalm 119:30). Who may ascend into the hill of the LORD? Or who may stand in His holy place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart, Who has not lifted up his soul to an idol, Nor sworn deceitfully (Psalm 24:3, 4).
It's always been amazing to me that even in the Old Testament God called for His people to be a holy people, may I say to all reading this message, we've got to be a holy people if we expect to get into and live in God's presence. In Old Testament times a priest's failure to wash his hands in the bronze laver was punishable by death because everything that had anything to do with the tabernacle was to be holy (Exodus 30:20), you see, God's looking for holy people even today, (Hebrews 12:14). The priest having clean hands symbolized the provision that Jesus made for each of us that truly repents and accepts Jesus Christ as their personal Savior.
We are cleansed and made new creatures through God's holy word, (1 Pet. 1:22, 23).
No man is qualified according to God's word to go into God's presence without clean hands and a pure heart. (Job 17:9) is a great scripture that lets us know as we live holy, that we can be stronger and stronger, Praise God.
Read these great scriptures and let God speak to you, James 4:7; Ps. 26:6, 7; 2 Sam. 22:21, Praise God for His word.
