The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords.
Psalm 55 verse 21.
We do not know the heart or mind of a person. They may speak sweet words, but sweetness is far from them.
It is best to be watchful and pray for guidance.
Live a good life pleasing to God, and blessings will flow.
My words are not fake.
I do not want to speak peace to my neighbors but have mischief in my heart. ( adapted from Psalm 27 verse 3.)
My prayer today is that I want my words to be pure and sincere. I pray daily that my ways might please the Lord. I pray my heart might be right before the Lord who dwells in holiness and who is holy and cannot look upon sin. But he might be pleased with me and that my enemies will be at peace with me.
Amen.
From the sun’s rising to the same setting, praise the Lord.
Obedient from first to last, he came to do the Father’s will.
He knew he would shed his blood for the sins of the world.
He knew that on the cross, he would be forsaken by God because of God’s holiness and how God can not look upon sin.
Yet, he died on the cross.
And God pleased with the son of his love, raised him from the dead.
And placed him at his right hand in heaven. There, he lives.
Behold my servant, whom I have chosen, my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him. Matthew 12 verse 18.
This is my beloved son, in whom I am well pleased. Matthew 3 verse 17.
He finished the work which the Father gave him to do.
Perfect completion.
God the Father is well pleased with His son.
He raised him from the dead.
And seated him at his right hand in the glory.
There he lives the die no more.
The Son of Man, the son of God, Jesus Christ the Lord.
Jesus lives.
Where is He now?
We see Jesus…
God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in times past unto the fathers by the prophets. Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds. Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high. Being made so much better than the angels. as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they. Hebrews 1 verses 1 to 4
He is now crowned with honor.
Seated at the Father’s right hand in the glory.
Having completed the work that the Father gave him to do.
There he lives.
We remember him.
