Meditations of the Week: Psalms 5:1-12

Text: Psalms 27:1-14

Title of the Word: Wait On The Lord: Be Of Good Courage, and He Shall Strengthen Thine Heart.

          King David, the man of God, suffered throughout his life through his enemies. But he was not afraid by trusting in the Lord God, the only light, salvation, and the power of life  . As to his suffering, he testified that his enemies  had come and fell upon him to eat his flesh. The Holy Spirit spoke through David of the enemies of the Jews to eat the flesh of the Jews at the time of the Great Tribulation in the future. .

         He testified about being not afraid of those who oppressed, ” One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to enquire in his temple.“ (Psalm 27: 4).

That is correct! The present world in which the children of God belongs to the church of God today is constantly attacked by all the means and methods of the enemy against the church. Children who become the temple of God through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit can cast out all fear in righteousness, peace and joy in God’s kingdom in the Holy Spirit (Rom. 14:17) by praying unceasingly in the full armor of God.

         He testified that when he suffered, God would hide him in his dwelling place, hide himself in the secret place of his tabernacle, and put him on the rock. That is correct! Our Lord Jesus Christ is the rock for us, and he built his church on his own, and we will be able to offer him a sacrifice of joy even in times of hardship, like David, by eating the words of life, And singing to the Lord.

      But the man of faith, David, sometimes sought the Lord in his fears when he sinned:

Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me…. 9Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.“(Psalm 27: 7, 9)

        God spoke to Israel who sinned through the prophet Isaiah:

”  1Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.# (Isa. 59: 1-2)

          God does not forsake His people and His children, but when they are  in sin, His presence shall leave from them putting them  in the darkness. The Apostle John testified that God’s children should continue to dwell in the light:

” If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us. “(1 John 1: 6-10).  

         King David asked the LORD to teach the way of Him.  He knew only the word of the LORD led him in the straight path . He praised the Word of God, confessing, ” Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. ” (Psalm 119: 105).

           Apostle Paul also confessed in his suffering  that he firmly believed in the goodness of God not to be  discouraged and weakened. He did not doubt God’s goodness toward Him. Apostle Paul, the apostle of God, said of God’s goodness to God’s children, even in extreme suffering, ” 28And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God,

The contemplation of the week: Psalm 45: 1-17

Text: I Peter 2:1-15

The title of the Word: The Church Of God That Became The Chosen Generation, The Royal Priesthood, The Holy Nation, And  A Peculiar People

          The Apostle Peter testifies of the best blessings of the Church of God that is the children of God as well as  the body of Jesus Christ, chosen through obedience and the blooming of Jesus Christ, through the sanctification of the Holy Spirit following His Father’s foreknowledge 1: 2).

          Through the same Spirit, the apostle Paul made the same testimony:

” According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world that we should  be holy and without blame before him love. Having predestinated us into the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will. To the praise of the glory of the grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved……For whom he did foreknow, he also predestinate, them he also called; and whom he called, them also  he  justified ; and whom he justified, them he also glorified. “(Ephesians 1: 4-6, Romans 8: 29-30).

         As the two apostles testified, according to the foreknowledge of God, the chosen generations, royal priests, and holy nation, for the blessings of the Church of God, which was justified through the Holy Spirit, justified by the Lord Jesus Christ, It is evidence that it has become a unique people.

         We must realize what spiritual positions the Church of God has meant through Scripture. If you do not, you will not only enjoy these spiritual best blessings, but you will not be able to live in them.

         First, in order to know how it has become a chosen generation, God calls Abraham and in the covenant of blessings he can see how the Church of God is bestowed this best blessing.

         When God spoke to Abraham, he said, “I will bless them who bless you and curse him who curse you, and in you  will be blessed of all the tribes of the earth” (Genesis 12: 3) And that all the tribes of the earth will be blessed through a man who will be born into the world.

         The one who appears as a descendant of Abraham through the Holy Spirit has realized that the seed of the woman in the Garden of Eden who said that the seed of the woman would destroy the head of the serpent was the Lord Jesus Christ who appeared to Abraham as a descendant of Abraham . At the same time, the blessing was not the limited life of the flesh, but the eternal life through the Holy Spirit:

“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us ; for it is written , Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree/ That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith…..Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not , And to seeds, as of many, but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ. “(Galatians 3:13, 14, 16)

         Therefore, those who believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, whom God has chosen as the only,  the Jews or the Gentiles are born of the Holy Spirit through the blood of Christ and enter into the spiritual kingdom of God in Christ. Apostle Paul also testified that the chosen generation became the  family of God. :

“Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints, and the household of God.  And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself  being the chief corner stone. In whom all the building  fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord.  In whom ye also are builded together  for an habitation of God through  the Spirit.”  (Ephesians 2: 19-22)

           That is correct! A new generation,
