Good
Morning!
Okay,
guys and gals . . . let's roll! We are about to find out about a
"place" IN HIM, where every need is supplied! I know that many
of you already have some revelation about this place, but we should never
accept a "stop sign" at intersections as a reason for not going
on to our destination! There will always be more road ahead of us to
keep traveling on! We must stay "teachable" and be willing to
learn more than we "think we already know"!
So
let's take a trip through Psalms 91 . . . I am going to give you scriptures
from the King James version of the Bible, and also from the Amplified Bible.
This way you will know that the Amplified version does not change the
context, it just "amplifies" the meanings of the words.
I encourage you to "compare" these two versions, and receive the
"revelation" that The Lord wants to give you!
Psalms
91:1 . . . "He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall
abide under the shadow of the Almighty" (KJV)
Psalms
91:1 . . . "He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall
remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty . . . Whose power no
foe can withstand"! (Amplified Bible)
So,
let's think about what the "Covenant promise" of God is that is embedded
in this verse! First of all it says that if we "dwell" there .
. . to "dwell" somewhere means that this is where you
"live". In other words, it is your dwelling place or where you
have chosen to "reside" (your residence)! Then it talks about
to "abide" . . . to abide means that this is where you have decided
to "stay" and remain and not be moving from one place to another!
Like not being "tossed to and fro with every wind of doctrine"
(Ephesians 4:14).
Oh!
This is exciting, and we have only just begun! There is so much
more to "glean" from this first verse of Psalms 91, but I like to
keep these Encouragements short so that you can "chew on it", (which
is where the word "meditate" comes from), and then
"digest" it before The Holy Spirit puts some more on our plate!
So, I will let you all do that tomorrow, and then I will be back
on Thursday to give you "heaping helpings" of fresh manna from God!
When we take time to "chew" our food, then we are getting the real
"taste" of it and we will also receive all the nutrition that
is in it . . . likewise, when we take time to "chew" on God's Word,
we will get a "taste" of What He is all about and also receive the
"spiritual nutrition" that we need! "Taste and see that
The Lord is good"! (Psalms 34:8)
Have
a Blessed Day!!
(Take time to "chew"!)
In His Love, Luanne
