Get Back In The Race!

The Best of the Feast

Apr. 7, 2016 1 Chronicles 15
Get Back In The Race!

Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily. We will spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years.

20 I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. Galatians 2:20, English Standard Version (ESV)


Dear Saints,

Today we prayerfully read our Feast in 1 Chronicles, Chapter 15; “Preparations for the removal of the ark. (1-24) The removal of the ark. (25-29) - Matthew Henry Concise.

 

Today we prayerfully Feast in 1 Chronicles 15.   King David realizes that he made mistakes when he moved the Ark the first time.  He owned up to his sin repented of and followed God’s rule the second time.  What a glorious day it was.  God’s people where celebrating and praising God as they brought the Ark of the Covenant into Jerusalem. You would think everyone would be celebrating and happy to see the ark enter the city.  That was not the case; “29 And as the ark of the covenant of the Lord came to the city of David, Michal the daughter of Saul looked out of the window and saw King David dancing and celebrating, and she despised him in her heart.1 Chronicles 15:29, ESV.  When people see you being blessed and you are giving God the glory, if they don’t know Jesus they may despise and think you are a fool.   “37 And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. 38 This is the great and first commandment. 39 And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”  Matthew 22:37-39, ESV.  Don’t let what others say or do discourage you, continue to love the Lord with all your strength.  Pray for those who defame or abuse you.  Continue to keep the first thing first; that is salvation through the blood of the Lamb. We are blessed when people abuse us for our faith in Jesus. “22 and you will be hated by all for my name's sake. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.“  Matthew 10:22, ESV.  Pick yourself up and get back in the race.  If the Lord is willing I will post and send the Feast again tomorrow.

  God Bless You,
Brother Mike
