Today is the release day of my new book, “Psalms of Trust” (Living What Confidence in God At All Times). I love the Psalms! As with many Christians, the Psalms comfort, strengthen, and direct me in life’s dangers, toils, and snares. In “Psalms of Trust,” I write extended meditations on ten Psalms that affirm that God is worthy of your trust and what it means to trust him in every season of life. Get a copy to help you walk in the paths of righteousness of God’s name sake. Get another copy for someone you know and love who is carrying a heavy burden in their life. Pray that the Lord would be pleased to use this book for the good of his people and the glory of his name.
Today, on July 8, 1741, Jonathan Edwards preached the famous sermon “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God.”
“It doesn’t matter how religious a man is or how many prayers he makes. Until he believes in Christ, God is not obligated in any way to protect him.”
With deep gratitude, we thank the African Pastors Conferences team, Ps @ConradMbewe and executive leaders for your partnership in making the 4th year conference a great success. May our united efforts continue to uplift & equip many for God's glory. — Ps Siza & Mrs Dhladhla
Moses: “I can’t speak.”
Job: “I have no peace.”
David: “I am a worm.”
Isaiah: “I am a man of unclean lips.”
Elijah: “I have had enough, Lord.”
Paul: “I am the chief of sinners.”
In our inadequacy, God is always adequate!
I will lift up my eyes to the hills— From whence comes my help?
[2] My help comes from the Lord, Who made heaven and earth.
[3] He will not allow your foot to be moved; He who keeps you will not slumber.
[4] Behold, He who keeps Israel Shall neither slumber nor sleep.
The souls of the elect are His by donation and right of redemption, the Father gave them to Him, and He died for them—yet Satan had the first possession; and so…Christ must fight His way into the soul, though He have right to enter as into His dearly purchased possession.
Things godly men DEFINITELY DO NOT DO:
1. Take dominion of their wife
2. Dominate their wife
3. Be domineering with their wife
4. Force obedience from their wife
5. Rule their wife as a subject
6. Treat their wife like a child
7. Discipline or punish their wife
8. Obsessively police their wife
9. Generally live in an extremely insecure way toward their wife
Instead, godly men "nourish and cherish" their wife, live with them understandingly, show honor to them, listen to them, and live in a Christlike way toward them by God's grace so that their prayers may not be hindered (Eph. 5; 1 Peter 3).
