Who do you honor? Is it husband, wife, parents. Honor is an important part of Christianity. Those that are honored, must be those that are His. To honor or give respect to anything that is not of Christ is to give honor to evil.
What do you set before your eyes, or listen to with your ears. Everything we do or see must be filtered through the lens of Holy Scriptures. That is one of the many reasons we are to study His Words so we do not sin against HIM!
David learned so much in his troubles. We read in Psalm 138:2 that His Word is above HIS Name. Think on that statement just for a moment. His Word is above His name! Can you fathom the importance's of that? I have been trying to get light shed on some hearts to see the great importance of that one statement.
One of my favorite books of Scripture is The Song of Solomon. It tells of His love for us. The beauty of His words are to be taken very seriously. They are a warning as well as words of love.
They are words that tell us how close we are to be to His Heart. So close that we can hear His heart beat and the rhythm of that heart. Chapter 2:10 commands us to RISE UP and Come away.
Years ago I bought a wonderful book, called, Christ and His Bride, by Cora Harris Mac ILravy. It was written in 1916, the year my mother was born.
This passage of Scripture 2:10 and I quote," The Bridegroom has not only come to the bride, but He is calling her to shake off every touch of slumber, to put away all indolence and procrastination , all vain confidence in her past experiences. She has become slothful , she has been reclining or resting for He tells her to RISE UP. She has not followed Him as she did once, for if she had, there would be no necessity for Him to call her to arise and come away."
The Church has left her first love. The Love of The Son of Almighty God. They are lost in worldly pleasures that brings satisfaction for but a moment. She needs to hear His voice once again. the voice that says come and die.
