Salvation Journey

Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart.   They also do no iniquity: they walk in his ways. ——Psalm 119: 2-3 (KJV) Thank you for your Word For it provides Light for my path Thank you for giving us Jesus  For only in Him are we made righteous  Thank you for your chastisement  For it reminds me that you are my God

Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart. ——Psalm 119:2 (KJV) Dear Lord, I pray that you will give me the desire to read and study your Word. You gave up the privileges of Heaven so that you could be made flesh, dwell among us, die for our sins, and raise again on the third day. Help me be more like you, who showed mercy and Grace to the sinful and the poor, and alleviation of suffering for the sick.  In Jesus name I pray, Amen. For Further Reading King James Bible 

Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer. —Psalm 19:14 (KJV ) Let me give thanks to you, Jesus, for dying for my sins at Calvary Let my mouth honor you Let my inner thoughts honor you  Let me be humble enough to lean on you alone for wisdom, strength and yes even forgiveness. Let me look forward to that resurrection day Let me praise your Holy Name Further Reading King James Version

Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD. ——Psalm 119:1 (KJV) “Blessed are the undefiled in the way,” —-Psalm 119:1a (KJV) I read this and realize the only one who is truly undefiled is our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  However, believers have hope in Jesus. In II Corinthians Chapter 5:21 (KJV) states, “For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” He bled and died as a spotless sacrifice for our sins on a Roman cross, so that we can be righteous in him. “…who walk in the law of the LORD.“ —Psalm 119:1b (KJV) Whosoever believes in Jesus is in dwelt by the Holy Spirit. He gives you a righteous nature. I believe the Holy Spirit grips your heart in his fist, and gives you the desire to read the Word of God so that you may know his will and be more like Jesus.  The Holy Spirit helps us to bear fruit. The Bible says:  But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering

For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish. —-Psalm 1:6 (KJV) Once again, like the rest of Psalm 1, there’s a contrast presented. You have the way of the righteous and the way of the ungodly. God knows the way of the righteous. Those who pursues an ungodly path will perish like the chaff cast into the fire. However, The  Word of God tells us  that everyone has sinned and fell short of the glory of God. Personal experience verifies this stated fact and it’s cuts to my soul. It’s convicting. God knows that the hearts of man is corrupt. In fact, He knows it all. God told Samuel while searching for the next anointed King of Israel among the sons of Jesse in I Samuel 16:7 (KJV) , “ But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him  (Eliab, one of Jesse’s sons) : for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.” Go

  “Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.” —-Psalm 32:1 (KJV) I am thankful for the Bible It shows that I am a sinner I am thankful for Jesus Who died for my sins and rose again on the third day I am thankful that Jesus grants forgiveness Simply by asking I am thankful that he gives me the desire to read his Word So that I may know the one who bled and died for me For further reading: King James Bible

“Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.” — Psalm 1:5 (KJV) Overall, Psalm 1 is a Psalm of contrast. It presents a path that ultimately leads to destruction ( Psalm 1:1 ) and a path that ultimately leads to a life where the “ leaf also shall not wither ” (Psalm 1: 2-3). In life, these two paths leads to two different types of fruits. The first (and righteous path) leads to fruit that is acceptable to God that derives from the abundant “ rivers of water ” springing forth from Christ at Calvary ( Psalm 1:3 ). The destructive path yields a fruit of chaff “ which the wind driveth away ” ( Psalm 1:4 ) . The ones who yielded the righteous fruit will have a joyous life everlasting where they belong to God and God belongs to them. In the final outcome, God will take the ones who yielded Chaff and cast them into the fire.  In Psalm 1:5 , once again you have a contrast presented. You have two types of people: the ungodly/sinners a
