America is again at a place where there seem to be no human solutions to problems. As at our founding, we need a LOT of help from on high. So, I continue sharing my daily Bible explorations.  These Bible citations found in the very intersting book, Delighted By Discipline Reaping the Rewards of Spiritual Commitment, By Mark R. Littleton, 1990

Psalms 63

[1] O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;

[2] To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.

[3] Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.

[4] Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.

[5] My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:

[6] When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.

[7] Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.

[8] My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.

[9] But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.

[10] They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.

[11] But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.

Romans 6

[23] For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

 

Philippians 2

[5] Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

[6] Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

[7] But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

[8] And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

[9] Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:

[10] That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

[11] And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

[12] Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

[13] For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

2 Timothy 2

[5] And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.

 

Romans 8

[16] The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:

 

Philippians 4

[6] Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

[7] And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

1 Corinthians 4

[1] Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.

[2] Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.

[3] But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man's judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self.

[4] For I know nothing by myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judgeth me is the Lord.

[5] Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.

1 Corinthians 8

[1] Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.

[2] And if any man think that he knoweth anything, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know.

 

Exodus 20

[15] Thou shalt not steal.

 

Psalms 119

[1] Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD.

[2] Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart.

[3] They also do no iniquity: they walk in his ways.

[4] Thou hast commanded us to keep thy precepts diligently.

Psalms 119

[11] Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.

[15] I will meditate in thy precepts, and have respect unto thy ways.

[16] I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word.

 

Psalms 145

[3] Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.

[4] One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.

[5] I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works.

Psalms 139

[1] O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me.

[2] Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.

[3] Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.

[4] For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether.

[5] Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.

[6] Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.

[7] Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?

[8] If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.

[9] If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;

[10] Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.

[11] If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.

[12] Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.
