Verse Concepts

A Psalm of David.

Bless the Lord, O my soul,

And all that is within me, bless His holy name.


Source: https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/topics/The-Soul Again today we are not going after the lustful passions of the flesh, our baser nature physical desires, but we're told to seek first The Kingdom of GOD, which Paul the Apostle calls, "Righteousness, Peace & JOY In The HOLY SPIRIT!" John Wesley referenced the Presence of The HOLY Spirit in his life, as the 'burning heart,' and John the Baptizer, leapt for JOY in his heart, even in his mother's womb, when he heard the proclamation of Mary, that she was pregnant with 'The ONE,' who John would point out to his disciples, as The ONE who will baptize you with The HOLY SPIRIT & with FIRE. In the Psalms, King David seems to be talking to himself when he asks, Why are you downcast oh my soul and why so disturbed within me? Psalm 103:1 encourages us to Bless The LORD, Oh my soul, and ALL that is within me, Bless HIS HOLY NAME! GOD inhabits the Praises of HIS People and is enthroned upon the Praises of Israel. JESUS says, If I be lifted up from the earth I will draw ALL men unto ME, so Let Us enter HIS Gates with Thanksgiving and HIS Courts with Praise, because HE wishes that NONE would perish and that ALL would come to Repentance, so Let Us PRAY Daily to have 'PASSION for SOULS!' PRAY that Christian converts in Somali-majority areas of Kenya, Africa will maintain a strong witness among those hostile to CHRIST/Messiah/The Anointed ONE. In the Mindanao region of the Philippines, Christians are attacked by both Sunni Muslims and communist rebels. ASK GOD to grant Believers, Disciples, HOLY SPIRIT Grace to follow the example of our LORD JESUS CHRIST, who suffered unjustly in bearing all our sins, for we ASK In HIS Precious Name. Romans 12:17-21

New American Standard Bible

17 Never repay evil for evil to anyone. [a] Respect what is right in the sight of all people. 18 If possible, so far as it depends on you, be at peace with all people. 19 Never take your own revenge, beloved, but [b] leave room for the wrath of God, for it is written: “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. 20 “But if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” 21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Isaiah 2; Hebrews 12 & MORE!

  Hebrews 12:28 (NASB 1995) states: "Therefore, since we have received a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe." If you're a born-again believer, disciple, follower of JESUS/Yeshua/Salvation, then you have received HIS Kingdom of Righteousness, Peace/Shalom & JOY In The HOLY SPIRIT! The Bible tells us that everything that can be shaken, will be shaken, except The Kingdom, so if you're in, you're standing on solid ground, upon The Rock, Which Is CHRIST/Messiah/The Anointed ONE. The 'LET US' of the day is to enter HIS Gates with Thanksgiving & HIS Courts with PRAISE, because HE inhabits the PRAISES Of HIS People and is enthrones upon the PRAISES of Israel. JESUS said to the woman at Jacob's Well, "The time is coming and now is, to worship The FATHER In (The HOLY) SPIRIT & TRUTH" and because HE Is The TRUTH, HE Is also the fulfillment of The WORD in Isaiah, "Yo...

 Psalm 11:5 Verse Concepts The Lord tests the righteous and the wicked, And the one who loves violence His soul hates. Source: https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/topics/Passion Psalm 116:7 Verse Concepts Return to your rest, O my soul, For the Lord has dealt bountifully with you. Source: https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/topics/The-Soul Did you know that GOD has a SOUL? When HE created Adam, from the dust of the ground and breathed HIS HOLY SPIRIT Breath into his nostrils, the first man became a living SOUL! Unfortunately after 'the fall,' humankind was separated from GOD, because our sin separates us from HIM.  GOD, Who Is LOVE, does hate sin, for that very reason, but when we repent, change our mind, turn away from sin and turn toward GOD, we find rest for our SOUL and GOD deals 'bountifully' with us, which is why HE sent JESUS/Yeshua/Salvation, so we could have that abundant LIFE! This is why we need to PRAY, to have 'PASSION for SOULS,' because GOD wishes that no...
