The Heart [6]

Posted byLeave a commenton The Heart [6]The Hear

Our study of what the Psalms tells us about the heart continues with Psalm 39: 3 K.J.V.
“My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned: then spake I with my tongue,”. Psalm 40: 10 is our next verse which reads in my King James “I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation.”In verse 12 we see this about the heart “For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth me. Our next stop is Psalm 44:21 Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart. [Yes, God knows everything in our heart!] Now let’s look at Psalm 45:

Psalm 45:1 King James Version

45 My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.

Psalm 49:3 King James Version My mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding.

Our last verse for today is Psalm

Psalm 51:17 King James Version .The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
Review: what psalms has revealed about our heart so far in our study.

*God puts gladness in the heart.*God tests and tries the heart.*A good heart speaketh the truth.*Reading God’s word causes a heart to rejoice.*He grants the desires of our heart if we follow His will.*Our heart will live forever if we walk upright. *Our heart will be strengthened when we wait upon the Lord.*The Lord is our shield and strength when we trust Him.*Having an upright heart causes one to rejoice.*God is near to the humble and broken hearted.*When we find our delight in the Lord, He will give the desire of the heart.

The Touch of My Fathers Hand!

The Touch of Fathers Hand!   When I was young and being bad, I thank God for the dad I had, He would not beat me, But he would guide, With words of wisdom, Obtained from God’s word, He kept by his side. Every night I would wait, Watching him come down the hill, Walking from work To enjoy his family, While supper we ate. Dad made sure his family, Went to Church each Sunday, To learn about Jesus, That He was the truth, the Life, And the way, We would sing “Jesus loves me,” And ” This is my Father’s world”. I thank God, For my father, And his leading me, To know the Master, And a home with Jesus, For Eternity. Thank you dad, And thank you Heavenly Father, For loving me, And loving others, for Eternity! ~Winston Staples

WHEN I AM WEAK!

COMFORT FOR THE WEAK As this old body gets weak And the pain grows great, And I find it hard to pray, As my headaches get worse everyday. I can no longer read God’s word, And meditate on message, That is heard. My friend Ed Sealy, wrote these words, In a song, He sings so well. Titled ” Caught in The Balances” The words go like this: ” Lord I’d love to praise you, But my body’s to weak, I can’t read your Word To hear as you speak, But I have your presence, You promised to me, When I”m caught in the balances, Trusting in Thee.” This is the first verse of the song; I trust you will enjoy it! ~ Winston Staples

TIME!

Time! Posted on   September 1, 2023   by   wint68,70pluswint Today another month came into being; it is hard to believe how quickly time passes. Summer is about gone for another year and the scent of Fall is in the air; humming birds will soon leave and the leaves will change color and fall.What does the Bible say about time? Time is spoken about over 700 times but today I am looking in the book of Romans. Paul talks about time, righteousness and Jesus beginning in chapter three.I am using my KJV.Romans 3: 26  To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.In chapter five verses six and eighteen we read: 6  For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 18  Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.Romans 9: 9  For this is the word of promise, At t
