[h=3]Psalm 1[/h]Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

[h=3]Psalm 1[/h][SUP]1 [/SUP]Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly,
nor standeth in the way of sinners,
nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
[SUP]2 [/SUP]But his delight is in the law of the Lord;
and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
[SUP]3 [/SUP]And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water,
that bringeth forth his fruit in his season;
his leaf also shall not wither;
and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

[SUP]4 [/SUP]The ungodly are not so:
but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
[SUP]5 [/SUP]Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

[SUP]6 [/SUP]For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous:
but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

Toska, thank you Sister again, please whatever you do, watch out for putting your faith on other people as me, Christ is the only mediator between God and you.

So everything you learn, take it to God for confirmation, for that is why God came to live in you to teach you truth from error, in order to set you free in him.
Just learn what is truth from what is said, by me and others as well, God in you via the form of Holy Spoirit that Christ sent you the day you first believed teaches you of God the Father and Son the Christ
Ephesians 1:13 in whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,

Hebrews 8:10-12

Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

[SUP]10 [/SUP]For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people: [SUP]11 [/SUP]and they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest. [SUP]12 [/SUP]For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.

The greatest laws of all are the love laws God and neighbor, these are the fulfillment of all Law, and I found I could not receive these Laws to do without first seeing:

1 John 4:19
We love him, because he first loved us.

Then after this reception I saw this:
Ephesians 3:16-18

Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

[SUP]16 [/SUP]that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; [SUP]17 [/SUP]that Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, [SUP]18 [/SUP]may be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;

The Mystery I found is that God just loves you, me and all people, start from there and get taught truth for we all here are only planters and waterers as Paul and Apollos were and are in Spirit

1 Corinthians 3:6
I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.
1 Corinthians 3:7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.

So listen, learn and love regardless of what others say or do, by this God teaches you personally
John 8:36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

Man flesh is not free and many times acts as if it believes for its own gain. The context here was and is about unbelieving men of that day that played as if they believed, which personally I have learned a lot from
You are reading my mind. In my short time as a Christian, I have learned to always look to the bible for confirmation and truth about anything and everything. I never dreamed I would be they type of person who is constantly reaching for my bible to seek answers but, I am happy to say I have become that person:) I carry a bible with me at all times so I can refer to it as needed.

There have been several occasions when I am told something and I get a strange feeling about what had been said. I am learning that the Holy Spirit is telling me to do my own research on any given subject and learn the truth--not believe what other say blindly.

God is truly amazing. The way He works in my life makes me feel so silly for waiting this long to put my faith in Him. But, I guess better late than never are great words that apply to this.

Toska: Here's a saying that I heard, that I like to apply to myself, in terms of my own spiritual history:

'I am not what I ought to be.

I am not what I shall be.

But I thank God that by His grace I am not what I once was.'

My wife and I often refer to 1 Samuel 7.12: 'Ebenezer: hitherto hath the LORD helped us'.

Blessings.

That is beautiful, thank you for sharing. I know I am nothing without God. I am so grateful to Him for giving me the life I have today. I cannot imagine ever going back to a life without God as my number one priority.

Food for thought, possibly a steak if God op[ens this up, drink milk still though to swallow without choking.

I have no righteousness in and of myself, before I decided to believe and after I came to belief, none not an ounce, and never will.

I do have righteousness though, it is not mine, it is God's alone, The Father of Christ. "I" personally am just elated that God through Son, me believing God made me a participator, And that's all folks

It's all about the righteousness of God by faith which Romans 3 speaks so eloquently about! :)

All of God's grace.

Blessings.

And so you minister what you have learned to us to, we all grow by sharing, planting and watering, God giving the increase. God is everything Sister, the creator of all revealed to us by Son Jesus, thank you Jesus for this amazingly not so easy sacrifice you did for us all. The pain you in your flesh that you went through. I cam only imagine and Thank you beyond understanding, for without you there is no chance no way to reach Father creator of all.

Toska, Thank you appreciated, for me I see just learn through all, remembering there is no one between Jesus Christ and "I", the same for you and all people. Iron sharpens iron, taking all things, thoughts captive to the obedience of Christ, knowing my obedience is not perfect and therefore I have no right to punish anyone Else's obedience right or wrong in my own opinion.
In Christ the war is over, three verses I see as in showing it as over are:

Matthew 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

After saying he came to fulfill, he went and did all those miracles and was condemned by clergy for it and put on the cross to die where he:
John 19:30
When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, Itisfinished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.

So the ? here is did he do what he said he came to do fulfill, even though law is still in place? And for who is it in place for?

Well lets see what his death did
Hebrews 9:15 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.

We are under a new covenant, new laws, yet this covenant is not new it is the same promise as made to Abraham, that got sidetracked by the letter of the law that steals, kills and destroys. Christ by love put us and all that beleive back on track loving all people, no matter what they think, do or believe. Love God's type is what changes a person in truth
Law being perfect and we not being perfect in and of ourselves are shown our weaknesses through the perfect Law and need for a Savior, This Savior is The Christ, the Son of God the only one that ever pleased God in the flesh. So we can have new life in the Spirit of God daily, by trust in God for doing what he did for us past tense, before you and I were ever born here on earth it is finished


But man has just got to prove something and lead, it is all over the world through competition

In the garden Adam n Eve thought of knowledge, knowing something more. In Nursing school, they always said, the more knowledge you have, the more power you will have, as to say, the more years of training. In studying the scriptures, the Lord dosn't want us to have turmoil, or discontent with our thoughts. He said, "my peace I give unto you," not as the peace that is in the world which is fragile." We must remember that we are the dust, created by the makers hand. Wanting to obtain power that was the fall of satan, he wanted to be like God. So many times, people want to figure God out, and the scriptures say, "no man knoweth the mind of God."
It's that temptation of wanting to know something more. Remember we are the dust, and all we need he has already given us. HIs Holy words, which is the Living waters, that make our lives flourish, and watered, not as the desert. The living bread, that the Holy spirit reveals all the truth we need, for within it are the nutrients we need for our Spirit, to be strong and strengthened. Corinthians says it truthfully, if we possess all knowledge, and have not love, we are nothing. This is the fall of the garden, it was the temptation to be above and not abased, we are to be abased, below under the authority of God, for we are the dust, and the dust of the flesh dosn't want to be abased, or humbled, and this is pride. This is what brought satan to fall. This was my inspiration. HOw about yours.

I am learning every day to let go a little bit more and hand everything over to God. I never realized how hard it would be to let go and let our Father handle all things in my life, I have always been such a control freak. He is showing me that He has so much more wisdom than I do and the best thing I can do is lean on Him at all times.

When I am in doubt, I pray and read the bible. It is amazing how He has opened my eyes to the Truth in His words and how those words help me each day. When I pray, I feel such peace and love like I have never felt before.

I can never put into words how grateful I am for all that God has done in my life. How He has forgiven me for my sins. How He has opened my eyes to so many truths that I did not know were out there. How good it feels to be walking the path with Him in my life. Knowing that He loves me more than I can comprehend. The Lord has made my life so amazingly beautiful. Even though I felt undeserving for so long, I am so grateful to Him that He claims me as His child and loves me so much.

Starting out each morning trusting God that has shown me God just love me and all. So starting from scratch each morning as morning comes along, seeing the new life in the Spirit clearer and clearer, not for pride, pressure or boastfulness, for the "rest" that is in Father through Son alone
Thank you Jesus for this transformation from you to us all that do believe and those that will come to belief in you and your finished work at the cross for all to receive new life in the Spirit of Father through you Son. We all are blessed because of you Father through Son.
Today is the day to believe and be free in God
