2 kgs 7:1-2 Elisha said, " Hear the word of the Lord. This is what the Lord says: About this time tomorrow, a seah of flour will sell a shekel and two seahs of barley for a shekel at the gate of Samaria."
The officer on whose arm the king was leaning said to the man of God, " Look, even if the Lord should open the floodgates of the heavens, could this happen? " You will see it with your own eyes," answered Elisha, " but you will not eat any of it"
So to see miracle, one has to believe!
E is for:
2 kgs 1: 13-15 So the king sent a third captain with his fifty men. This third captain went up and fell on his knees before Elijah.
" Man of God," he begged, " please have respect for my life and the lives of these fifty men, your servants! See, fire has fallen from heaven and consumed the first two captains and all of their men. But now have respect for my life.!"
The angel of the Lord said to Elijah, " Go down with him; do not be afraid of him." So Elijah got up and went down with him to the king.
Being humble always helps and moves the hearts of those who encounter him/ her.
B is for:
Jgs 3: 1-4 These are the nations the Lord left to test all those Israelites who had not experienced any of the wars in Canaan ( he did this only to teach warfare to the descendants of the Israelites who had not had previous battle experience): the five rulers of the Philistines, all the Canaanites, the Sidonians, and the Hivites living in the Lebanon mountains from the mount of Baal Hermon to Lebo Hamath. They were left to test the Israelites to see whether they would obey the Lord's commands, which he had given their forefathers through Moses.
It is only in adversity God can test our faithfulness. It defines who we are and whom we trust.
R is for:
Dt.17:18-20 When he takes the throne of his kingdom, he is to write for himself on a scroll a copy of this law , taken from the priests, who are Levites. It is to be with him, and he is to read it all the days of his life, so that he may learn to revere the Lord his God and follow carefully all the words of this law and these decrees and not consider himself better than his brothers and turn from the law to the right or to the left. Then he and his descendants will reign a long time over his kindom in Israel.
It means reading Gods words and obeying them brings blessing.
U for:
Ps.147:5 Great is the Lord and mighty is his power, his understanding has no limit.
If we lack understanding we can come to God so that He can impart us knowledge and wisdom.
A is for:
Phil 3:4-6 though I myself have reasons for such confidence.
If anyone else thinks he has reasons to put confidence in the flesh, I have more: circumcised on the eight day, of the people of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; in regard to the law, a Pharisee; as for zeal, persecuting the church; as for legalistic righteousness, faultless.
It is through Christ alone we can be saved.
R is for:
Mt. 4:6 "If you are the Son of God," he said, "throw yourself down." For it is written:
"He will command his angels concerning you, and they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone."
So not all people who uses words from the Bible can be trusted. We must always be guided by the Holy Spirit to discern what is from God and what is a con.
Y is for :
Mt 11: 28-30 Come to me, all of you who are weary and hardened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble of heart, and you will find rest for your soul.
So that is God's words in the month of February.
F: Faithfulness
E: Efectiveness
B: Barriers
R: Reading
U: Understanding
A: Accomplishments
R: Rationalizing
Y: Yoke

ReplyDeletenatutunan ko nuon na mas importante ang heartfelt obedience natin sa gusto ng Diyos kesa sa mga sacrifices or donations na nagagawa natin for the Lord. at di lahat ng pagsubok kelangan ihinga natin ng intervention from God. kahit nga ang son of God kinaya kahit anong pagsubok sa kanyan in that 40days.
ReplyDeleteNice words Phioxee. Yes, we learn much from God. The source of wisdom. Have a nice day dear:)
