Behold, Jehovah, seated on the throne
Abba, Father, the Well that overflows
The God who was and is and shall be forevermore
Holy is the Lord
Amen, Amen
Blessing and honor and glory and power amen
Amen, amen
Blessing and honor and glory and power amen
Behold the Way, the Truth, and the Life
Perfect, Savior, The Blood that washed us white
The God who was and is and shall be forevermore
Holy is the Lord
Holiness has a name and it’s Jesus
Victory has a name and it’s Jesus
The Word has a name and it’s Jesus
Proverbs 16:7 – “When a man’s ways please the Lord, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.”
I try to always remember when reading this that my world may not always be one where some people would not be against me but that God can help my enemies to slow down or cease in the raging and warring over every single thing.
Strive to live your life for Christ first and know that God will move for you in ways that you could not move for yourself.
It reminds me of another verse as well,
Proverbs 25:21 – “If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink:”
It is not God’s will that we would perish trying to solve seemingly unsolvable things on our own against our foes. It is God’s will that we live our lives in peace with them by not making things worse and loving/respecting them as we would want to be.
You may not get your kindness back in return, but know that your efforts are acknowledged by the one who can calm the storms as Jesus did upon the waters!

Once I was clothed in the rags of my sin,
Wretched and poor, lost and lonely within.
But with wondrous compassion, the King of all kings,
In pity and love, took me under His wings
Oh, yes, oh yes, I’m a child of the King
His royal blood now flows in my veins.
And I who was wretched and poor now can sing
Praise God, praise God, I’m a child of the King.
Now I’m a child with a Heavenly home,
My Holy Father has made me His own.
And I’m cleansed by His blood, and I’m clothed in His love,
And some day I’ll sing with the angels above.
