Psalms

[Nufan]

I don't know what to believe in anymore, but this Psalm brought me to a good place.

27 The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

2 When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.

3 Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.

4 One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to enquire in his temple.

5 For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.

6 And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the Lord.

7 Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.

8 When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, Lord, will I seek.

9 Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.

10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the Lord will take me up.

11 Teach me thy way, O Lord, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.

12 Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.

13 I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.

14 Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord.

 

[shittim]

Psalm 91 is a dandy too-
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day. Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation. There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet. Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

 

[Amargosa]

Psalm 121 is another reminder of the goodness of God.

My Help Comes from the Lord

A Song of Ascents.
121 I lift up my eyes to the hills.
From where does my help come?
2 My help comes from the Lord,
who made heaven and earth.

3 He will not let your foot be moved;
he who keeps you will not slumber.
4 Behold, he who keeps Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The Lord is your keeper;
the Lord is your shade on your right hand.
6 The sun shall not strike you by day,
nor the moon by night.

7 The Lord will keep you from all evil;
he will keep your life.
8 The Lord will keep
your going out and your coming in
from this time forth and forevermore.

But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.

So how do we practically fight? I wanted to provide a quick list of things that have helped me experience victories in fighting unbelief:

The word also say that mercy will triumph over judgment. Your not wrong you just need gods grace to to show love for your neighbor. Share in love not judgment. You need lots of prayer because god will one day judge you in like measure. If your judgment towards me is harsh then gods judgment towards you will be harsh.

King James Version

James 1:1-23

1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.
2 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;
3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.
8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.
9 Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted:
10 But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away.
11 For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withereth the grass, and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways.
12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:
14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
15 Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
16 Do not err, my beloved brethren.
17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
18 Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.
19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:

Get out from under Doubt(s) placed in us in thoughts of this and or that, in the maybe's, should have, could have, better do next time or else attitudes of the first born flesh nature in first birth of man and woman. Which all are first born from first
Then, being born here first in flesh and blood here on earth in troubles and good things that happen to us each, I see no flesh nature can please God not the true God that loves us all, seeing many do not see and do not believe, because of hardships here on earth first, yet go to church and claim they do believe and have doubts in the way still

Start as David in Psalms saw, God loves us all, once saw that and stood in belief to this truth, evil had to finally leave, not getting any arguments from it.
See Paul in Ephesians about his Jail time, how he dod not complain over it, continued to praise God in it, and the jail help saw this and came to belief also, Paul not complaining, rejoicing anyways
Time to see new even whenever in adversities God overcame evil for you too John 16:33 elated over the Psalm to help you rest in the done work. by the risen Son for you too

I don't know what to believe in anymore...

Precious friend, @Nufan, is there a specific "point of confusion" that God's Scripture Can Help with?

 

[Nufan]

Precious friend, @Nufan, is there a specific "point of confusion" that God's Scripture Can Help with?

There's just so much information and views and beliefs and different ways of following after righteousness its just mind-boggling to me, everything that's going on in the world, everything that's going on in my life personally, everything that's going on with this country right now. I'm just not sure what to believe. I kinda have reached this place in my walk where I'm not really looking to follow a belife to bring me closer to God. I want to experience God's word working in my life.That's what I want. And I wanna know how I can come into alignment. This psalm has helped me to do that.

Your taking Offense to the truth -of God's word ----my Post is not judging you ---it is telling you the truth so you can work on yourself and stop Doubting God and His word ---Who is Jesus -----

 

[Nufan]

Your taking Offense to the truth -of God's word ----my Post is not judging you ---it is telling you the truth so you can work on yourself and stop Doubting God and His word ---Who is Jesus -----

This is not how God reveals truth to you.

 

[Nufan]

Your taking Offense to the truth -of God's word ----my Post is not judging you ---it is telling you the truth so you can work on yourself and stop Doubting God and His word ---Who is Jesus -----

First of all, you didn't take the time to even get to know me or ask questions or find out why I said what I did. But you automatically assume that you knew and you wanted to pass judgment on me for not coming into alignment with your faith. Not only that, you're using God's word as a way to condemn me which god would never do. And then you're trying to turn it around , and say that it's in love when clearly there is no love in what you were trying to share. Its only blame, guilt , shame, condemnation, and accusation. Just because it is God's word doesn't mean that your application is medicine. Sometimes it can be poison. I'm afraid that you will have to answer for that.
Because I will make sure to bring it to god's attention when we're standing before him and I'm sure there will be plenty of witnesses who will come into agreement with the accusation. Your life better be pure and clean and without flaw or error, if your going the so harshly hold me to the law of your faith because you will be judged just as harshly by god, as you have judge others.

John 16:13

English Standard Version



13 When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.

See it is not you who can reveal the truth to me. It is only the Holy Spirit who can reveal the truth to me and that will happen according to gods plan and in gods time. Did you even go to God and ask him how it is that he would like you to fulfill his will in this matter, or did you act according to your will and understanding based on your own judgment and belifs. Did you even ask God if your own beliefs and understanding are in alignment with gods understanding. When sharing this truth with me did you show me mercy and were you acting in compassion. I'm really not sure if you care about me at all or have any interest of wanting to get to know me or have any desire to want to understand what I'm going through. What that shows me is that you're really not here for me. And, you're really not here to please god by doing what you're doing.

 

[Nufan]

Your taking Offense to the truth -of God's word ----my Post is not judging you ---it is telling you the truth so you can work on yourself and stop Doubting God and His word ---Who is Jesus -----

Also, it would seem to me based on your post and what I've looked at. Is that what you're sharing is not technically wrong? I would have to say it's legitimate, but it seems that you're placing unfair weights on the scales. And according to proverbs, this is considered to be a major offense to God. Cause you are telling people to do what is impossible for you to follow. There should be a way that you share with people that's coming from a place of love and compassion and genuineness through relationship. So I guess my question is do you follow everything that you're telling people to do or do you struggle with following these things your telling people to do. And if you struggle with them, then why aren't you relating with them on that, why aren't you coming from a place of understanding, why aren't you sharing testimony, why aren't you trying to establish some sort of relationship where it's a shared experience, it almost seems like you're trying to prop yourself up on a pedestal or a high horse where you're shouting down commands to follow what you your self are unable to follow. That brings me to another point is that you would then be a hypocrite , and jesus came against that. It's almost like you're coming against me for breaking the sabboth just because i'm confused about what to believe. For all you know , I could be coming to christianity confused about what to believe , because I been atheists or a gnostic my whole life , you don't know , and maybe you gave just enough of a push to keep me away for good.

I'm gonna like your post. Cause it's technically not wrong. But why don't you share something about yourself? Why don't you try to get to know me?What was it like when you first entered the faith. Have you always believed? And I'm sorry if I came across the wrong way, but this is very upsetting how I was treated.

The phrase "unfair weights and hypocrites" refers to the double standards used by dishonest people to deceive others for personal gain. It originated in the biblical book of Proverbs, where it describes deceitful business practices and is often used metaphorically to represent any act of injustice or insincerity.
Unfair weights
In ancient marketplaces, merchants would use a balance scale with sets of stone weights to measure goods. To cheat customers, a seller might use a heavier set of weights when buying goods from a supplier but a lighter set when selling to a customer.

Yes Im calling you out student of the word.
You use light weights when decerning your own righteousness yet uses heavy weights when decerning others righteousness. You hypocrite.
Who are you? No one knows you. Your like a self entitled pharisee with no qualifications to back it up. You demand others take in your heavy yoke of faith so you can ring your bell. Go on shine your light and tell everyone how worthy you are.
