Hello
my dear friends! One of the great messages that come from the Christmas
season is hope. When everything was so dark, Jesus, the Light of the
World, became one of us and that changed everything.
May this Christmas be a time of remembering of how God has blessed you with the love of Jesus.
Merry Christmas,
Denny
Psalms of Discipleship—Principle #46
Life Principles For Those Who Choose To Follow Jesus And Live The Discipled Life
Key Scripture: 11 I shall remember the deeds of the LORD; Surely I will
remember Your wonders of old. 12 I will meditate on all Your work And
muse on Your deeds. 13 Your way, O God, is holy; What god is great like
our God? Psalm 77:11-12
Core Value: Prayer
There are
many of us who use the end of the year as an exercise of review and
meaningful reflection. We itemize “the good stuff” as well as the things
that have challenged us. Some things we may ponder might cause us to
experience inner joy; some memories, perhaps pain.
The
Psalmist gives us a spiritual path towards embracing a healthy
perspective: taking control of what we think. Good thinking always leads
to a good image.
Principle #46 & Personal Application: Quality disciples use prayer as a way to move from depression to devotion.
• When we pray we need to remember what the Lord has done for us: I
shall remember the deeds of the LORD; Surely I will remember Your
wonders of old.
• When we pray we need to meditate on His works: I will meditate on all Your work And muse on Your deeds.
• When we pray we need to exalt His greatness and character: Your way, O God, is holy; What god is great like our God?
Reflect & Respond: Some Really Good Questions To Ponder…
When I become discouraged how can the principles described in this psalm encourage me?
The greater I view God, the greater my faith becomes. In what ways does God need to be great in my life?
Prayer:
Lord Jesus, help me to always remember Your deeds and wonders. May I
meditate and prayerfully contemplate on what You have done in my life.
There is no one like You, for Your way, O God is holy. You are great,
greater than any false god. And You are great to me.
The Essential Core Values Of The Quality Disciple Are…
Grace—Worship—Bible Study—Prayer—Community—Service
