Happy May First! Trust in the Lord & Do Good! (5/1-3)

01-03 May 2015 - Trust in the Lord and Do Good! – Bread Box by Dorothy

Psalm 37:3 “Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.” NLT: “Trust in the Lord and do good then you will live safely in the land and prosper.”

References: Deut. 30:20 NLT, “Choose to love the Lord your God and to obey Him and commit yourself to Him, for He is your life.” Psalm 62:8 NLT, “O my people, trust in Him at all times. Pour out your heart to Him for God is our refuge.”

Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, we delight ourselves in You, Lord and you will give us the desires of our heart. We commit our ways unto You, Lord; we trust also in You and You shall bring it to pass (meaning You will answer our petitions that we request of You).

You will bring forth Christ’s righteousness as the light upon us. We rest ourselves in You Lord, and wait patiently for You. We will not worry when we see that others have prosper in their ways because their hearts were only thinking of evil deeds.

We will remember that someday the meek shall inherit the earth and we will delight ourselves in the abundance of peace. We look forward for Christ’s coming. Your Words we have hid in our hearts that we may not stray away from You.

We thank You, Abba for placing the desires of our hearts when we delight ourselves in You and that You will set out to fulfill our needs. For it is You that worked in our hearts to keep our eyes fixed upon Jesus who is the author and the finisher of our faith. And with His stripes we are healed! In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen! [Reference Prayers from Phil. 2:13; Ps. 37:4-7,11; Ps. 119:11; Is. 53:5; Heb. 12:2]

Song: The Joy of the Lord is Thy Strength
The joy of the Lord is thy strength
And He is thy life.
The joy of the Lord is thy strength
And He is thy life.
He giveth us the victory
when our hearts are filled
with praises to Thee.
The joy of the Lord is thy strength
          And He is thy life.
(Inspiring Choruses)
