A surrendered life to the Lord Jesus is praiseworthy. When we obey the commandments, when we do the will of Jesus, we have a surrendered life. Our old man with envy, bitterness, jealousy no longer has any expression, but the goddess and love alone finds expression in our lives. The earlier, we step into fulfilling the plans that our Lord intends for us, the better. Thus, a surrendered life is a victorious life. Good to know this hymn and know it well in your heart as a prayer.
Your wilderness experience can be refreshing with the Lord’s presence, protection and provisions for you.
O God, when you led your people out from Egypt, when you marched through the dry wasteland, the earth trembled, and the heavens poured down rain before you, the God of Sinai, before God, the God of Israel. You sent abundant rain, O God, to refresh the weary land. (version NLT)
I desire to dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life.
Today’s verse is from Psalm 27:4. The passage is given from a few versions of the Bible.
One thing I ask from the Lord, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple. (version NIV)
