How Can i Keep my Way Pure? – Psalm 119:9-16

December 11, 2008

Psalm 119:9-16

“How can a young man keep his way pure? 

By living according to Your Word.

I seek You with all my heart,

do not let me stray from Your commands.

I have hidden Your Word in my heart

that I might NOT SIN  AGAINST YOU.

Praise be to You, O LORD;

Teach me Your decrees.

With my lips I recount all the laws

that come from Your mouth.

I rejoice in following Your statutes

as one rejoices in great riches.

I meditate on Your precepts

and consider Your ways.

I delight in Your decrees;

I will not neglect Your Word.”

 

In Christ Alone my Hope Is Found

December 10, 2008

IN CHRIST ALONE MY HOPE IS FOUND

           

In Christ alone, my hope is found

He is my Light, my Strength, my Song

This Cornerstone, this Solid Ground

Firm through the fiercest drought and storm

 

What heights of Love

What depths of Peace

When fears are stilled

When strivings cease

My Comforter, my All in All

Here in the Love of Christ i stand

 

In Christ alone, Who took on flesh

Fullness of God in helpless Babe

This Gift of Love and Righteousness

Scorned by the ones He came to save

 

‘til on that cross as Jesus died

The wrath of God was satisfied

For ev’ry sin on Him was laid

Here in the death of Christ i live

 

There in the ground His body lay

Light of the world by darkness slain

Then bursting forth in glorious day

Up from the grave He rose again

 

And as He stands in Victory

Sin’s curse has lost it’s grip on me

For i am His, and He is mine

Bought with the precious blood of Christ

 

No guilt in life, no fear in death

This is the power of Christ in me,

From life’s first cry to final breath

Jesus commands my destiny

 

No power of hell, no scheme of man

Can ever pluck me from His hand

‘til He returns, or calls me home

Here in the power of Christ i stand

 

In Christ Alone i Place my Trust ~

December 10, 2008

In Christ alone, will I glory
Though I could pride myself in battles won
For I’ve been blessed beyond measure
And by His strength alone I overcome
Oh I could stop and count successes

like diamonds in my hands
But those trophies could not equal

to the grace by which I stand
In Christ alone
I place my trust
And find my glory in the power of the cross
In every victory
Let it be said of me
My source of strength
My source of hope
Is Christ alone
In Christ alone will I glory
For only by His grace I am redeemed
And only His tender mercy
Could reach beyond my weakness to my yield
And now I seek no greater honor

than just to know him more
And to count my days with losses
to the glory of my Lord
In Christ alone
I place my trust
And find my glory in the power of the cross
In every victory
Let it be said of me
My source of strength
My source of hope
In Christ alone
I place my trust
And find my glory in the power of the cross
In every victory
Let it be said of me
My source of strength
My source of hope
Is Christ alone

Lift up Your voice and give Him glory

for He is worthy to be praised.

Jesus, Jesus,

The Glory Of God by Leonard Ravenhill

December 4, 2008

 

Moses said to the LORD, “You have been telling me, ‘Lead these people,’ but You have not let me know whom You will send with me.  You have said, ‘I know you by name and You have found favor with me.’   If You are pleased with me, teach me Your ways so I may know You and continue to find favor with You.  Remember that this nation is Your people.”

 

The LORD replied, ‘My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.’ 

 

Then Moses said to Him, ‘If Your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here.  How will anyone know that You are pleased with me and with Your people unless You go with us?  What else will distinguish me and Your people from all the other people on the face of the earthy?’

 

And the LORD said to Moses, ‘I will do the very thing you have asked, because I am pleased with you and I know you by name.’ 

 

Then Moses said, ‘Now show me Your glory.’ 

 

And the LORD said, ‘I will cause all My goodness to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim My name, the LORD, in your presence, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. …’

Exodus 33: 12-19

 

Then the LORD came down in the cloud and stood there with Moses and proclaimed His name, the LORD.  And He passed in front of Moses, proclaiming, “The LORD, the LORD, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin.  Yet He does not leave the guilty unpunished:  He punishes the children and their children for the sin of the father s to the third and fourth generation.”

 

Moses bowed to the ground at once and worshiped.  O Lord, if I have found favor in Your eyes,’ he said, ‘then let the Lord go with us.  Although this is a still-necked people, forgive our wickedness and our sin, and take us as Your inheritance.”

 

Then the LORD said, ‘I am making a covenant with you.  Before all your people I will do wonders never before done in any nation in all the world.  The people you live among will see how awesome is the work that I, the LORD, will do for you.  Obey what I command you today. …  Exodus 34: 5-11a
