“If we are faithless, He remains faithful—for He cannot deny Himself… for the power of the wicked will be broken, but the LORD upholds the righteous… The LORD directs the steps of the godly.
He delights in every detail of their lives. Though they stumble, they will never fall, for the LORD holds them by the hand…
The LORD helps the fallen and lifts those bent beneath their loads. The eyes of all look to You in hope; you give them their food as they need it. When You open Your hand, You satisfy the hunger and thirst of every living thing…
The LORD opens the eyes of the blind. The LORD lifts up those who are weighed down. And, the LORD loves the godly.”
2 Timothy 2:13; Psalm 37:17,23-24, 145:14-16, 146:8
Bible verses about the blessings of God
When you live by God’s Word, you will not stumble …
“My (daughter), do not forget My teaching, but keep My commands in your heart, for they will prolong your life many years and bring you peace and prosperity… do not lose sight of these— keep sound wisdom and discretion, Then you will walk on your way securely, and your foot will not stumble.” Proverbs 3:1,22-23
There will be times you wander off the path God has set for you and you will stumble.
But when you do, call on Him.
For when you call to God with a sincere and contrite heart, He will catch you ever time.
Your turn …
Meditate on these promises.
Sear them into your being.
Do not proceed until you thoroughly know and believe these truths and are prepared to live them out in confidence.
Come and pray about these blessings…
“Be not far from me, for trouble is near; For there is none to help… LORD, there is no one like You to help the powerless against the mighty.
Help us, LORD, our God, for we rely on You, and in Your Name, we have come against this vast army. LORD, You are our God; do not let mere mortals prevail against You.
Praise be to the LORD, who has given rest to His people just as He promised … You have made a wide path for my feet to keep them from slipping… for You have been my help, and in the shadow of Your wings, I will sing for joy.
My soul clings to You; Your right hand upholds me… I will walk about in freedom, for I have sought out Your precepts… The LORD will rescue me from every evil deed, and will bring me safely to His heavenly kingdom; to Him be the glory forever and ever. Amen.”
Psalm 22:11; 2 Chronicles 14:11; 2 Samuel 22:37; 1 Kings 8:56; Psalm 63:7-8,119:45; 2 Timothy 4:18
“I will teach you wisdom’s ways and lead you in straight paths. When you walk, you won’t be held back; when you run, you won’t stumble.
Take hold of My instructions; don’t let them go. Guard them, for they are the key to life… For I the LORD thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee.”
Proverbs 4:11-13; Isaiah 41:13
How to do this as a weekly Bible study
Day One: Experience
Read the entire devotion. Do any verses stand out to you? If so, write it down and work on memorizing it over the week. I personally love the app “Scripture Typer.”
Day Two: Observe & Read
Chain. Look up and chain verses (For example on how to chain verses, see this video).
Day Three: Interpret
Read through the chain of verses starting with the first one. What do they say? Do you notice when it says “never” or “always” or “If, but, however, therefore, all…..”
Day Four: Application
Do “Your turn” and make a list of people that God has put on your heart when you read this.
Day Five: Testify
Who in your life, right now, can you share this with? There is somebody in your life that needs to hear this. Close your eyes. What name came to mind?
Would you like to get more involved in the beLydia Movement?
Parents and friends, there are kids being sold for sex right now and they are still going to school and their parents have no idea.
They are being tricked, (often through social media and texting apps) into sharing compromising photos and then trapped into selling more or are tricked into having sex.
WE CAN PREVENT THIS THROUGH SHARING AWARENESS.
