Welcome to Ning

A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold is as pictures of silver.(Prov.25:11) It is so important to speak the right words to people at the right time to produce the right results. When you think of apples of gold in pictures of silver, then you are thinking of wealth and excellence. When we speak wisdom into the lives of others we are making them wealthy. Therefore we must seek God for He is the source of all wisdom and He will give us just the right words needed at the right time.

  • #Deliver me, O LORD, from the evil man: preserve me from the violent man; Which imagine mischiefs in their heart: continually are they gathered together for war. They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent: adders' poison is under their lips. Selah. Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked: preserve me from the violent man: who have purposed to overthrow my goings. The proud have hidden a snare for me and cords; they have spread a net by the wayside: they have set gins for me. Selah. I said unto the LORD, Thou art my God: hear the voice of my supplications, O LORD. O God the Lord, the strength of my salvation, thou hast covered my head in the day of battle. Psalm 140:1-7

    This is a Psalm of David and he is praying for Jehovah God to deliver me from the evil man and preserve me from the violent man. Keep me, O thou great Jehovah from the hands of the wicked who imagine mischiefs in their heart: continually they are gathered together for war. The proud have hidden a snare for me and cords: they have spread a net by the wayside: they have set gins for me. Selah. I have said unto Jehovah, Thou art my God: hear the voice of my supplications, O thou great Jehovah, O God the Lord, the strength of my salvation. Thank the Lord thou hast covered my head in the day of battle. What a blessing to call upon the Lord in the day of trouble and he will hear me.

  • #How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them! If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee. Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me, therefore, ye bloody men. For they speak against thee wickedly and thine enemies take thy name in vain. Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee? I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them, mine enemies. Search me, O God and know my heart: try me and know my thoughts: And see if there be any wicked way in me and lead me in the way everlasting. Psalm 139:17-24

    David had learned the bitter lesson of how evil his heart could become when he lusted after Bathsheba and had her husband murdered. So he cries out for Jehovah God to search me, O God, and know my heart: try me and know my thoughts: And see if there be any wicked way in me and lead me in the way everlasting. We should pray this prayer too lest our hearts become over shadowed with haughtiness and we are tempted to go astray. Only God can know our hearts and how to search them, then to lead us in the way everlasting.

  • #If I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there shall thy hand lead me and thy right hand shall hold me. If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me. Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee, but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee. For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb. I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvelous are thy works and that my soul knoweth right well. My substance was not hidden from thee when I was made in secret and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them. Psalm 139:9-16

    David knows the omnipresence of Jehovah and then he thinks about his birth in the wings of the morning. For there in the uttermost parts of the sea, even there shall thy hand lead me and thy right hand shall hold me. The darkness and the light are both alike to thee. For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb. I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvelous are thy works and that my soul knows right well. God did not hide thy substance from thee when I was secretly and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being imperfect and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them. I will praise thee O God, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.

  • #O LORD, thou hast searched me and known me. Thou knowest my downsitting and my uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off. Thou compassest my path and my lying down and art acquainted with all my ways. For there is not a word in my tongue, but lo O LORD, thou knowest it altogether. Thou hast beset me behind and before and laid thine hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it. Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. Psalm 139:1-8

    O thou great Jehovah, thou hast searched me and known me. Thank you, Lord thou knowest my downsitting and my uprising, thou understandest my thoughts afar off. Thou knowest my path and my lying down, thou art acquainted with all my ways. For there is not a word in my tongue, O thou great Jehovah, that thou knowest altogether. Thou hast beset me behind and before and laid thine hand upon me. Whither shall I go from thy spirit? of whither shall I flee from thy presence? If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. I preached this passage on Jonah as he tried to go from the presence of the Lord. He too learned that God is everywhere. 

  • #I will praise thee with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praise unto thee. I will worship toward thy holy temple and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name. In the day when I cried thou answeredst me and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul. All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD, when they hear the words of thy mouth. Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD: for great is the glory of the LORD. Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly, but the proud he knoweth afar off. Thou I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies and thy right hand shall save me. The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands. Psalm 138:1-8

    All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O thou great Jehovah, when they hear the words of thy mouth. Yes, they shall sing in the ways of Jehovah God: for great is the glory of Jehovah. Though Jehovah is high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly, but the proud he knows afar off. Even though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou shall revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of my enemies and thy right hand shall save me. Jehovah God will perfect that which concerns me: thy mercy, O thou great Jehovah, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands. For, I will praise thee for ever.

  • #By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion. We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof. For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song and they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying Sing us one of the songs of Zion. How shall we sing the LORD's song in a strange land? If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning. If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy. Remember, O LORD, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem: who said raise it, raise it, even the foundation thereof. O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed: happy shall he be that rewarded thee as thou hast served us. Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones. Psalm 137:1-9

    By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion. Jehovah God shall not forget Zion in the day of his visitation. For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song and they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion. O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning. If I do not remember thee, let the tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy. Jehovah will remember and reward those that carried Israel away and the Edomites who said raise it, even the foundation thereof. Vengeance is mine sayeth the Lord, for I shall repay. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones. The sins of the fathers shall be recompensed upon the children unto the third generation of those who do not obey thee. Thou wilt have mercy on those that love thee and keeps thine commandments.

  • #Sihon king of the Amorites: for his mercy endureth for ever. Furthermore, Og the king of Bashan: for his mercy endureth forever.  And gave their land for a heritage: for his mercy endureth forever.  Even a heritage unto Israel his servant: for his mercy endureth for ever. Who remembered us in our low estate: for his mercy endureth for ever. And hath redeemed us from our enemies: for his mercy endureth for ever. Who giveth food to all flesh: for his mercy endureth forever. O give thanks unto the God of heaven: for his mercy endureth for ever. Psalm 136:19-26

    The theme of this passage is the mercy of God endureth forever. Who remembered us in our low estate, and hath redeemed us from our enemies. Who gives food to all flesh. O give thanks unto the God of heaven: for his mercy endureth for ever. O praise the name of the Lord God in heaven: for his mercy endureth forevermore. 

  • #To him that smote Egypt in their firstborn: for his mercy endureth for ever: And brought out Israel from among them: for his mercy endureth for ever. With a strong hand and with a stretched out arm: for his mercy endureth forever. To him which divided the Red sea into parts: for his mercy endureth for ever. And made Israel pass through the midst of it: for his mercy endureth forever. But overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red sea: for his mercy endureth for ever. To him which led his people through the wilderness: for his mercy endureth for ever. To him which smote great kings: for his mercy endureth forever. And slew famous kings: for his mercy endureth forever. Psalm 136:10-18

  • #Give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. O give thanks unto the God of gods: for his mercy endureth for ever. O give thanks to the LORD of lords: for his mercy endureth forever. To him who alone doeth great wonders: for his mercy endureth for ever. To him, that by wisdom made the heavens: for his mercy endureth for ever. To him that stretched out the earth above the waters: for his mercy endureth forever. To him, that made great lights: for his mercy endureth for ever: The sun to rule by day: for his mercy endureth forever.  The moon and stars to rule by night: for his mercy endureth for ever. Psalm 136:1-9 

    Give thanks unto Jehovah God: for he is good: for his mercy endureth forever. For he alone does great wonders: for his mercy endureth for ever. O give thanks to the God of gods: for his mercy endureth for ever. For he made the heavens: for his mercy endureth for ever. To him, that made great lights: for his mercy endureth for ever. The sun to rule by day: for his mercy endureth for ever. The moon and stars to rule by night: for his mercy endureth for ever. What a mighty God we serve, for heaven and earth, adore him. Angels bow down before him. Praise ye the Lord.

  • #The idols of the heathen are silver and gold, the work of men's hands. They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have them, but they see not; They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouths. They that make them are like unto them: so is every one that trusted in them. Bless the LORD, O house of Israel: bless the LORD, O house of Aaron: Bless the LORD, O house of Levi: ye that fear the LORD, bless the LORD. Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD. Psalm 135:15-21

    How vain it is for those who trust in the idols of heathens, as they are silver and gold. The works of men's hands. They have mouths but they cannot speak; ears have they but they cannot hear. Eyes have them but they cannot see. Neither is there any breath in them. They that make them are like unto them. Bless Jehovah, O house of Israel. Bless Jehovah, O house of Aaron; Bless Jehovah, O house of Levi, which is the Priests. Blessed be Jehovah out of Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye O thou great Jehovah.
