During Difficult Times Psalm 44:5: Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us. 6: For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me. 7: But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us.8: In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah. During difficult times the believer tends to do one of two things. We may decide for a solution that necessarily results in less time spent seeking the Lord: reading God's word, worshipping with God's saints, prayer, etc. Or we may look away from the difficulties and commit ourselves more to trusting our Lord alone. When we do the former the difficulties tend to become even greater difficulties and seeking our Lord becomes less and less important to us. But when we are resolved in the confidence that our Lord has saved us, that he is saving us, and that he shall save us, it is not that the difficulties go away, they just become less significant as we delight in the sufficiency of our Lord's grace.
Prayer Is By Don Fortner 2 Samuel 7: 27:...Therefore hath thou servant found in his heart to pray this prayer unto thee. Prayer is something God puts in the heart that he may hear it from the heart that he may answer it for your hearts sake for Christ's sake for his glory.
True Godliness 2 Corinthians 7: 1: Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. The fear of God begins by beholding the awesome breadth, and length and depth and height which holy God requires and has worked to save a people in righteousness; he spared not his own Son, and Christ Jesus his Son willingly laid down his life, to declare himself just and the justifier of all who believe. True holiness is perfected in the believer when we are brought by the Holy Spirit through the gospel of Christ to willingly rest in Christ the perfection of holiness. It is only when we trust Christ that we have become separated from the filthiness of going to the law and the prophets looking for a work we can perform, which is the evil concupiscence of our flesh and of our spirit by nature. This fear, this holiness and this separation is in spirit in the new man by the Holy Spirit making us partakers of the divine nature. By faith we rest in the blessed fact that all God's promises to us are ordered and sure in Christ Jesus the Son of God who is formed in us. True godliness is not striving to make this flesh something it will never be by a form of godliness, but true godliness consists of resting by faith in Christ, being persuaded by Christ the Wisdom and Power of God. Therefore knowing we are secure both temporally and spiritually by the power of Christ's resurrection, true godliness does not live by the sword in our worship or in our walk.
