The LORD our God is With Us


This post is about the Scripture at 1 Kings 8:51-56 in the Holy Bible. The Scripture states:


56 Blessed be the LORD, that hath given rest unto his people Israel, according to all that he promised: there hath not failed one word of all his good promise, which he promised by the hand of Moses his servant.

57 The LORD our God be with us; as he was with our fathers: let him not leave us, nor forsake us:

58 That he may incline our hearts unto him, to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and his statutes, and his judgments, which he commanded our fathers.

59 And let these my words, wherewith I have made supplication before the LORD, be nigh unto the LORD our God day and night, that he maintain the cause of his servant, and the cause of his people Israel at all times, as the matter shall require:

60 That all the people of the earth may know that the LORD is God, and that there is none else.

61 Let your heart therefore be perfect with the LORD our God, to walk in his statutes, and to keep his commandments, as at this day.

The LORD our God is faithful to his Word. The Bible says at Deuteronomy 31:6 NIV that He will never leave you nor forsake you. If you are tired, the LORD will give you rest. If you are sad, He will make you glad. If you are mad, He will make you happy. The LORD is with you every step of the way. Reach out to HIM in prayer. Praise HIS holy name. Remember to read the Bible Scriptures daily. There is power and blessings within the Word.

Joseph Has 2 Dreams

In both of Joseph's dreams, he was the authority figure. In the Book of Genesis 37:3, it says that Jacob, Joseph's father loved him more than all his other children. In verse 4, it says because the brothers saw that Joseph was loved more, they hated him and could not speak peaceably to him. As the story goes on, the brothers stripped Joseph from the beautiful and colorful coat his father had made him. They end up throwing Joseph into a pit and selling him to the Ismeelites for 20 pieces of silver. Joseph's coat was taken and dipped into goats blood. They returned to their father with the coat. The father, Israel (Jacob) recognized the coat as being Joseph's, his son. He began to weep sorely for his son because he thought a wild animal had killed him. Joseph is taken into Egypt...

Facing the Storm: When Chosen Ones Encounter Rejection

Many people believe that being chosen by God is a path paved with blessings and acceptance. However, the reality can be quite different. The Bible is filled with stories of the Chosen Ones who’ve faced rejection, both from those closest to them and from the world at large. What is the Meaning of Chosen? Chosen: Not Favoritism, But Fit Imagine you are a coach getting a team together for a big game. You would not just pick people whom you favored for a personal reason. You would select players with skills and strengths to win the game. In a similar way, being chosen by God doesn’t necessarily mean He picks favorites. The Bible tells us He sees the potential within us, the unique gifts and abilities we possess. He “chooses” those who He knows can fulfill a specific purpose in His grand plan. Think of it like this: God has a mission: The Bible describes God working throughout history to bring about His purposes.                 ...
