Biblical Principle - Absolute truth from God’s Word:

There is blessing to the group of people that are together a nation whose “God is the LORD”.  But those people who believe that by their large number of people and weaponry and power they can bless themselves are mistaken.  Because the LORD sees all from all both ends of eternity that God can control everything including eternal life and the simple daily life of having food instead of famine.  

Psalms 33:12-19 Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.

The LORD looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.

From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.

 He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.

 There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.

 An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength.

 Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;

 To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.

Practical - Works that apply Biblical Principle:

This section is for you to find a way to apply the truth in your life. I will try to give only one as example; there may be other practical ways. This is what makes the Christian walk so important and makes it important to have a deliberate purpose in everything we do.

We are blessed of God as a person or a nation when we seek after righteousness.  We are blessed of God when we seek Him first.

Matthew 5:6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Biblical Principle - Absolute truth from God’s Word:

Sin affects all aspects of our life.  Our entire life is affected from the physical and emotions beings.  When sin is not dealt with our bodies are affected.  But when we deal with our sin God brings healing in all areas.

Psalms 32:1-5 Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.

 Blessed is the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.

 When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the day long.

 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned into the drought of summer. Selah.

 I acknowledge my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid. I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD; and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. Selah.

The Scriptures gives the answers to everyday problems of life.  This passage is neglected many times because it is not understood.  The Lord is interested in our lives including our physical and emotional well-being.  Both Old Testament and New Testament deals with how we can deal with sin that affects our entire life.  

James 5:10-16 Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the name of the Lord, for an example of suffering affliction, and of patience.

 Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.

 But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath: but let your yea be yea; and your nay, nay; lest ye fall into condemnation.

 Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms.

 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:

 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he hath committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.

 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

Day 189
Biblical Principle - Absolute truth from God’s Word:
When we dwell in the Lord; no matter what the world attacks with will fail. We do not need to fear what the world can do.  The Lord gives light, strength, and shelter from all enemies.

Psalms 27:1-5 The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

 When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.

 Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.

 One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.

 For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.

When we build our life on the rock of the truths we can stand the storms of life.  The key is to know the truths and do them.

Matthew 7:24-25 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

Biblical Principle - Absolute truth from God’s Word:

 The LORD is greater than all; but what a great description that gives us a glimpse of Him.  Praise the Lord for who he is.

Psalms 24:1-10 The earth is the LORD's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.

 Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place?

 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.

 He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

 This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah.

 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

 Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.

 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

 Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, he is the King of glory. Selah.

What better reason to praise the Lord; than for him who gave us salvation.  What a great God who will show us mercy and grace.

1Peter 2:7-10 Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,

 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.

 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;

 Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
