True & Righteous Altogether

Psalm 19:7-14: …the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether. More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb. Moreover by them Your servant is warned, and in keeping them there is great reward. Who can understand his errors? Cleanse me from secret faults. Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me. Then I shall be blameless, and I shall be innocent of great transgression. Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my strength and my Redeemer.

The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether….The Word  leads us to do righteously ~ which simply means we will “do the right things towards one another.”

The older women likewise, that they be reverent in behavior, not slanderers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things— that they admonish the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, to be discreet, chaste, homemakers, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be blasphemed. ~ Titus 2:3-5

Jesus is the One qualified to judge…Jesus exhorted us to love ~ agape love,
          Agape will correct when necessary, 
            Agape will not compromise,
Agape is centered in Jesus not in us…

Open your Bible now and
Expect to meet Him.
Expect revival, direction, comfort, renewal, hope, strength, etc. AND
Expect His intimate instructions to be very specific and intensely personal!

For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword,
piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow,
and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
And there is no creature hidden from His sight,
but all things are naked and open
to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.
Hebrews 4:12-13
