    Default Just sharing studying Psalms this morning

    Proverbs 14:27 "The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life turning a man away from the snare of death

    Proverbs 13:12 "Hope deferred makes the heart sick but a longing fulfilled is a fountain of life."

    Proverbs 13:19 "A longing fulfilled is sweet to the soul but fools detest tuning from evil."

    Proverbs 13:14 "the teachings of the wise is a fountain of life turniing a man away from the snares of death."

    what turns a man away from the snare of death? the fear of the Lord
    what is the fear of the Lord? a fountain of LIFE, teachings of the wise.
    a longing fulifilled is a fountain of life and fountain of life is the fear of the Lord. so what does that tell us? That only God can fulfill our every longing.
    what keeps a man from fearing the Lord? he detests turning from evil
    why does He detest turning from evil?
    His heart is sick. He has a longing that only God can fulfill and as long as his hope is not the fear of the Lord his heart remains sick and he spirals down more detesting turning from evil. why? because his long is not fulfilled with the fear of the Lord who alone satisfies our every longing that is sweet.

    just learning from the fountain of life and everyone who wants to drink the living waters that Jesus offers that well up to eternal life...

    any thoughts?? theres' always an ocean when wading the depths of God's word...

    "The righteous eat to their hearts content but the stomach of the wicked goes hungry"

    why won't mockers seek wisdom?

    15 Good understanding wins favor, but the way of the unfaithful is hard.

    Excellent meditation, sis. I might add from the New Testament: "Everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed." —John 3:20
    -------"You are not your own; you are bought with a price." —1 Corinthians 6:19b-20a

    I adore Psalms...God satisfies our deepest longings...to know Him is to have joy, happiness, and peace the world cannot offer.

    Brings to mind this verse:

    For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, and forfeit his soul?
    (Mark 8:36)
    **all of the poetry posted under this username was composed by me; Dee M. aka PraisingHimAlways, to the glory of God**

    Psalm 91:1 - He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide in His Shadow

    Happiness is the sure promise of an eternal hope that the world in all its fury can never take away
