Whatever God says is the truth and He has the power to do it. We must find our pleasure in the law of the Lord. "How will the young man make his path pure? By going according to your word. (Psalm 119: 9) David could say this because he experienced it. Even in small things, David was loyal. The tasks of protecting the herd typified what he would do later. That’s why he was good for the people of God. He is a man after the heart of God.
He loved his God above all, he could sing, praise, dance for his God. He was not ashamed despite his position as king. God wants you to keep His Word. He who watches over Israel does not doze or sleep. He watches over His Word. “The name of the Lord is a strong tower; The righteous take refuge there, and are in safety. (Proverbs 18:10) Our Lord Jesus Christ lives on today, our God does not change. In this world there is a people who serve this God. “My sheep hear my voice; I know them, and they follow me. (John 10:27) God is the shepherd, and as a shepherd, He must have his sheepfold. You are precious in the eyes of God. Even in difficult times, His hand is there. "You will not allow your saint to see corruption. (Psalm 16:10) Even if death strikes, corruption cannot reach you. "Now everything that has been written in advance has been for our instruction" (Romans 15: 4) This is why we must have faith and confidence in our God. We are among those whose hearts burn to serve this God and do His will. We must be disciplined in the things of God. We are not obligated but it is a desire in our heart, gratitude towards our God.
2 Timothy 3: 1
How important it is to have this Savior. What love! He didn't wait for us to take a step toward Him to act but He did it for us before we could even turn to Him. Paul understood this God's love for man. “By the grace of God I am what I am” (1 Corinthians15: 10) Despite all our shortcomings, all that we have done, He has come to us. When you understand that, you cry every day.
Romans 8: 28-29
You have to be sure that God called you. When God starts a work, He will always finish it. God watches. In our Lord, there is no chance. Everything is known in advance. This is why the one who doubts is really unhappy. When He chose you, He knows why. He made no mistakes in choosing you. Defects, you will have them but it is God who will perfect you. God knows your interior. He knew that if He chose your neighbor, it couldn't work. Even before you were born, God had already elected you. No one can cancel the foreknowledge of God.
Psalm 139: 13-16
It’s God who shapes the future. When a situation happens, God has allowed it in your life.
Romans 8:29
Nothing can stand in the way of God's purpose. The purpose of God is that you are perfect, that is to say in the image of God. We are in Scripture. We are talking about the people of God so if you are a son of God, you are inside. “To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out”.
(John 10: 3) With the Lord there is never a failure. The election will never fail. When the voice of God sounds, vibrates your interior, you cannot remain insensitive. Verse 30 shows us the process that God is doing
Romans 8: 1 / Romans 8: 30
When God talks about justification, we are justified by faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. For Him to justify you, you who are guilty must become innocent. All the evidence shows your guilt, there is no doubt: you are guilty. You can't justify a culprit. God is really wise.
Before you see the straw in your neighbor’s eye, look at the chaff in your eye. A straw can go unnoticed but a chaff, it cannot go unnoticed. Put yourself in the place of the woman caught in the act of adultery. This is a profound lesson for the brothers. It is to understand the depth of God's love. How do you want to make an innocent culprit? Do not create your holiness. The logic of God is not the logic of man. After that the dogmas appear but it is not of God.
Hebrews 10: 1
God has come to set the captives free and you have come to bind them. You cannot go to heaven with cannonballs on your feet. You have to be free in Jesus Christ. It was a tremor for the Pharisees. Who can be greater than Moses? There are greater than Moses, Jesus Christ. Even when Paul entered the depth of the Word with Agrippa, Agrippa trembled. He had never heard of this from the Pharisees. God raises his people. "And I tell you that you are Peter, and that on this stone I will build my Church. (Matthew 16:18) Therefore, when you criticize a Spirit-filled man of God, you blaspheme against the Holy Spirit. However, there is no forgiveness for the blasphemers.
Ephesians 3: 1-5
These men entered a depth that the Pharisees could not enter. This is why, they sought to break this work.
Hebrews 10: 1-3
These men are never quiet. Religion is what kills people. Your dogmas and traditions will make you stay nailed in the coffin, you will not make it to the rapture. Woe to the preachers who lock people into this.
Matthew 23:13
You will not be able to say that you have not heard. We have to come freely to the Word of God.
