Truth for Today #52

Thursday April 20th

On Thursdays my posts will include verses that stood out in my readings from the Bible during the week. One, two, three or maybe more. If you have a verse/verses that you read during the week and would like to share, leave it/them in the comments and I will add it/them to the post. Let’s dig deep in God’s Truth again this year!

Revelation 4:11

“Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they existed and were created.”

Hebrews 13:14

For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come.

From Vera:

‭‭1 Samuel‬ ‭15‬:‭22‬-‭24‬ ‭ESV‬‬

“And Samuel said, “Has the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to listen than the fat of rams. For rebellion is as the sin of divination, and presumption is as iniquity and idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the Lord, he has also rejected you from being king.” Saul said to Samuel, “I have sinned, for I have transgressed the commandment of the Lord and your words, because I feared the people and obeyed their voice.”

From Karen:

1 Samuel 12:24

Only fear the LORD, and serve him in truth with all your heart: for consider how great things he hath done for you.

  1. “And Samuel said, “Has the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to listen than the fat of rams. For rebellion is as the sin of divination, and presumption is as iniquity and idolatry.

  2. These are wonderful verses Ellen! The Lord wants our whole hearted love for Him, not just a feeling of duty and responsibility to Him. He is so worthy of our praise and adoration, may we love Him more than anything else, and give Him the honor, praise and glory due His name!

  3. 1 Samuel 12:24
    Only fear the LORD, and serve him in truth with all your heart: for consider how great things he hath done for you.
