Praise the Lord.

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.

God’s Promise: Reward of Life

the Lord is not slack concerning his promise

Yet to be #171

Our names are written in the Book of Life
If we confess Him to the world.
If we walk in his favor bringing honor to his name by living a life that pleases God and by trusting him at his word, then there is proof of conviction and conversion.
We overcome the world, lost to the whims and fancies of life that hold no meaning to God because He has no preeminence.
Being friends with the world and loving the things of the world puts us at enmity with Christ.
We cannot have two masters.
Christ as savior seals us with the Holy Spirit unto the day of redemption.
There is nothing that can separate us from the love of God, neither death, hell, Satan, or the grave.
He promised when our name is written in the Book of Life, it will never be erased.

(References: Revelation 3:5 “I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.”

2 Peter 3:9 “The Lord is not slack concerning his promise.”

sent his only son to become our Savior

Holiness  

In the New Testament of the Bible, holiness means to be set apart from the profane (the unholy) and refers to the beauty, purity and divine perfection of God.  God the Creator, who called the things that were not into being.  It is this same God, who in his great mercy loved us so much and could not deny Himself, sent his only son to become our Savior.  – adapted from the King James Version
