1/1
Yahveh is our righteousnessOn another journey, brother was told
that he had to stay on ramp. Had to wait it out. Another
hitcherthere: He had been drinking, was speaking loudly He was near
the brother.Brother was concerned didnt look like a good situation.
But Elohiym got him out pretty quick. Then gotto main highway. Many
cars with license plates that had the name of the place where he
was heading.Situtation looked good but he ended up waiting 24 hours
Finally he got broken enough Why was this happening? Made him
examine self. Opened scriptures andsaw:
For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have
mercy, and I will have compassion onwhom I will have compassion. So
then [it is] not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but
of Elohiymthat sheweth mercy. For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh,
Even for this same purpose have I raised theeup, that I might shew
my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all
the earth. Romans 9:15-17- Sometimes our thinking can be wrong.
D It is Elohiym that worketh in us both to will and to do of His
good pleasure (Philippans 2:13). Knowingthat it is Him being
merciful to us to deal with us, cause us to do things.
Brother has tried to apply this more. A young man said to
brother A preacher said that it was not usseeking Him, but He
sought us His mercy to draw us.
1 Corinthians 4:6,7 And these things, brethren, I have in a
figure transferred to myself and [to] Apollos for your sakes; that
ye might learn in us not to think [of men] above that which is
written, that no one of yoube puffed up for one against another.
For who maketh thee to differ [from another]? and what hast
thouthat thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive [it],
why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received [it]? No good
thing in us It is Els mercy. He is the source of the good things we
do.
Proverb 3:7-10 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear Yahveh, and
depart from evil. It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to
thy bones. Honour Yahveh with thy substance, and with the
firstfruits of all thineincrease: So shall thy barns be filled with
plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine. Be not
righteous over much. (Ecclesiastes 7:16)As we honor Yahveh with our
substance,* our presses will burst out with new wine.
Ecclesiastes 7:16 Be not righteous over much; neither make
thyself over wise: why shouldest thoudestroy thyself? We receive
righteousness of Him.
Ecclesiastes 7:18 [It is] good that thou shouldest take hold of
this; yea, also from this withdraw not thinehand: for he that
feareth Elohiym shall come forth of them all. Really fear Yahveh in
this (giving glory to Him)will come forth of them all.
Going on and applying it - the way we think about
ourselves.Pride the root of it: has to do with how we think about
ourselves.
* (Give glory to Him for the things we receive from Him.)
