Psalm 100:4 (ESV/emphasis added/jaj)...."Enter HIS Gates With Thanksgiving, And HIS Courts With PRAISE! Give Thanks To HIM; Bless HIS NAME!"....
PJP2 THANKS TEXT 160708 - 2 Chronicles 31:20-21 (ESV/emphasis added/jaj)...."Thus Hezekiah Did Throughout ALL Judah, And he Did What Was GOOD And RIGHT And FAITHFUL Before The Lord his God. And Every Work That he Undertook IN The Service Of The House Of God And In Accordance With The Law And The Commandments, SEEKING his God, he Did With ALL his Heart, And Prospered."....
I am Thankful for The Holy Spirit providing us an Example of what The Lord Jesus Shared when He Said (Matthew 6:33 - ESV/emphasis added/jaj)...."SEEK First The Kingdom of God And His Righteousness....AND All These Things Shall Be Added unto you".....Even though, like all of us, King Hezekiah is still human, and he still stumbles (as we see noted in 2 Chronicles 32:25), BLUF - He employed the Matthew 6:33 Principle because of his Right Relationship with God The Father.
My Prayer of Thanks for us today would be - Lord Jesus, Thank You for Sharing Positive Examples of Your saints who did strive to Follow You with All their Heart, Soul, Strength and Mind. Holy Spirit, Thank You for Your Guiding them and us Along Your Way. Father God, Thank You for Your Forgiveness when we, like Your saints of old, stumble and stray - Help us Lord to Be Quick to Repent and Return to You. In Your Name, Lord Jesus, we Raise our Praise and Prayers....Amen/Amen....jaj
