A Look at the Book #369

The Devotional

Papa “J” and his thoughts?

Is it possible for man to plan to live forever? The pathway of all the living leads to death. Do you know anyone who has kept himself alive? There is One Jesus! But He died too! Yes, But He rose from the dead that you might live. Only, His way leads to Life. Proverbs 14:12 (John 11:25-27)

There is this one word that has attracted my attention, it is the word supremacy and it is not a word you hear of much these days except you may hear the word in a military setting from time to time. The dictionary defines the word as one who has superior rank, power and authority over a given person, place or object. For example; the man who builds a house has a superior authority over his hired laborer, has power to erect and build a house and ranks among his peers as a qualified carpenter. Yet his supremacy is not absolute, it is limited to factors to numerous to list. Also, one person may be an excellent rough carpenter who builds the frame and another may be a very good finished carpenter who is able to make the house enjoyable to live in. So here is the point! Mankind is said to be given the supremacy to live a civilized life of cultivation and preservation. Also to enjoy his Creator, to be satisfied with his wife and likewise for the wife to be satisfied with her husband. To reproduce children that are assets to the life ahead and for maintenance of the world around them. Psalm 127:1-5. Here is question plain and simple! Do you see us as a world of people living in the God ordained ministry of supremacy? If you said yes, then you have believed the lie of those who deny the Supremacy and return of Jesus Christ.

CERTAIN PSALMS OF INTEREST

Psalm 37:3-4 What are some of the things you plan on trusting today? The stock market, a co-laborer, your spouse, a good friend, the money in your pocket or even that next bottle of beer that you hope will calm your mind from all those details of life? These details find ways into our heart, do they not? So much so that we would worry about the next nickle that is lacking to purchase another moment of peace of mind.

Can this cycle of mistrust have a peaceful ending, is the any solution to this problem of anxiety in the human heart? There is, these couple of verses out of Psalm 37 lay out a perfect plan that works one hundred percent of the time. Trust in the LORD, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness. Delight yourself also in the LORD, and He shall give you the desires of your heart.

If you conclude that this action of trusting God is too simple, then consider this! What complicated thing or plan in this world around you has worked, lately! Socialized government including when to be medicated, when to die, when to live, when to work or when to play. When is it proper for a man to marry another man, or for a woman to marry another women. When is it the right time to tell the person next to you as you both defend a military position that you are a suicide bomber (DaDT), I mean (gay)! These things are not solutions to live, these are mandates to DIE!
