Shalom,

Psalm 117 is one of the reading in our Spoken Word Bible Reading Plan for today! 

1 O praise the Lord, all you nations! Praise Him, all you people! 2 For His mercy and loving-kindness are great toward us, and the truth and faithfulness of the Lord endure forever. Praise the Lord! (Hallelujah!)

I hope that YOU obeyed this instruction today! PRAISE HIM! ALWAYS and FOREVER because NO ONE loves YOU more! We also read 1 John and some of the most powerful and exciting TRUTHS are also found here! Verse 5:

5 And this is the message [the message of promise] which we have heard from Him and now are reporting to you: God is Light, and there is no darkness in Him at all [no, not in any way].

HE IS LIGHT and LIFE and LOVE! And it is ALL for US! Then verse 7:

7 But if we [really] are living and walking in the Light, as He [Himself] is in the Light, we have [true, unbroken] fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses (removes) us from all sin and guilt [keeps us cleansed from sin in all its forms and manifestations].

It is our priceless privilege to be able to have intimate fellowship with Almighty God becaue HE desires that! Make it YOUR determined purpose to increaase your fellowship with HIM! You riwll never regret that decision! And then this powerful promise in verse 9:

9 If we [freely] admit that we have sinned and confess our sins, He is faithful and just (true to His own nature and promises) and will forgive our sins [dismiss our lawlessness] and [continuously] cleanse us from all unrighteousness [everything not in conformity to His will in purpose, thought, and action].

This 'confession' means to acknowledge and admit the sin and then HE will wipe it all away! HALLELUJAH! We are, of ALL people, MOST BLESSED! Here is Hillsong with "Like Incense":

Shalom in Him!
