Sunday Morning Reflections_December 19, 2010

The Word for wisdom:

Proverbs 20:5 (HCSB)
Counsel in a man's heart is deep water; but a man of understanding draws it out.

The Word for inspiration:

Psalm 90:9-12 (HCSB)
⁹ For all our days ebb away under Your wrath; we end our years like a sigh. ¹⁰ Our lives last seventy years or, if we are strong, eighty years. Even the best of them are struggle and sorrow; indeed, they pass quickly and we fly away. ¹¹ Who understands the power of Your anger? Your wrath matches the fear that is due You. ¹² Teach us to number our days carefully so that we may develop wisdom in our hearts.

The Word for inspiration:

Isaiah 9:6 (HCSB)
For a child will be born for us, a son will be given to us, and the government will be on His shoulders. He will be named Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.

Romans 8:35-39 (HCSB)
³⁵ Who can separate us from the love of Christ? Can affliction or anguish or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? ³⁶ As it is written: Because of You we are being put to death all day long; we are counted as sheep to be slaughtered. ³⁷ No, in all these things we are more than victorious through Him who loved us. ³⁸ For I am persuaded that not even death or life, angels or rulers, things present or things to come, ⌊hostile⌋ powers, ³⁹ height or depth, or any other created thing will have the power to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord!

My prayer:

Our Father in heaven, my dear Father, I praise and thank you that the Promised Messiah has come, and that he finished the work you sent him to do. Father God, I thank you that Jesus is alive today. Father, I thank you that because of Jesus, nothing can separate us from you or from our precious Savior.
