Beware of the legalism, that can so easily come upon us. God wants a changed heart, that compels us from within, to honor God, not some self righteous, me oriented, do good mentality that checks a box off. Jesus as God, showed us the Love, compassion and devotion to the Father, that he deserves, and we should desire. Thank you Jesus, for giving us your spirit, to help, and guide us, in our path.

For I delight in loyalty rather than sacrifice, And in the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings.

I will fear no evil. Thank you, Jesus.

But the Lord is faithful, and He will strengthen and protect you from the evil one.
2 Thessalonians 3:3 NASB

Where shall the help come from? It shall come from the creator (v2), not from the created (hills/mountains). The hills/mountains, probably lead to Jerusalem, where the temple of the Lord, was, and where his presence, was also.

I will lift up my eyes to the mountains; From where shall my help come?
Psalms 121:1 NASB

The Great Commission. May we go as commanded, and share our good news.

Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,
Matthew 28:19 NASB
https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/mat.28.19/399

God does not need perfect people, to do his bidding. He needs people to answer the call, when he asks. Don’t try and be perfect, before you serve God. He already sent Jesus to to remedy your imperfection. God uses imperfect people, to accomplish his plan, to those that put their trust and faith in him. Will it be you, today?

Then I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?” Then I said, “Here am I. Send me!”
Isaiah 6:8 NASB

Walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desires of the flesh.

He who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me; and he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will disclose Myself to him.”

Dr. COWAN, was only a man, but his life reflected God’s heart, in his life. He changed my life, forever, by his life and example. For that, I will ever be grateful. HE served the Lord.

Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance. It is the Lord Christ whom you serve.
Colossians 3:23‭-‬24 NASB

The Christian life, is not about remembering a point in time. Salvation is about that, but it is just the beginning. We are called to follow Jesus, and that is not an intellectual exercise. The Bible says that even the demons acknowledge Jesus and shutter! We are Called to Read and study, meditate and pray, serve one another, minister to the weak and poor, share His Story…..You get the idea. If you have been, negligent in this area, confess it. We serve a gracious God who forgives, and separates our sins, as far as the East is from the West. Is that not Amazing! Let’s go out today, filled with the Spirit, and see what God will do. Please share if you see his work in your life today. I know I have already this morning. I had no idea I would be writing this, even after I saw the verse. God is so Good. Thank you Jesus!

The things you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.
Philippians 4:9 NASB

Strength and Security, comes to those, who put their Trust in Jesus.

“There is no one holy like the Lord , Indeed, there is no one besides You, Nor is there any rock like our God.
1 Samuel 2:2 NASB
https://bible.com/bible/100/1sa.2.2.NASB

No Fear: Notice…….it is not in our own strength, it is a strength, that comes from above. It is a hope and faith, that puts our fate, in the hands of a loving and merciful God.

“Behold, God is my salvation, I will trust and not be afraid; For the Lord God is my strength and song, And He has become my salvation.”
Isaiah 12:2 NASB
