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.

All those who live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution for many are the afflictions of the righteous and out of them all the Lord delivers us.
#I Paul have written it with mine hand, I will repay it: albeit I do not say to thee how thou owest me even thine own self besides. Philemon 1:19 A servant of God's
Not now as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved, especially to me, but how much more unto thee, both in the flesh, and in the Lord? If thou count me therefore a partner, receive him as myself. If he hath wronged thee, or oweth thee ought, put that on mine account. Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord. Having confidence in thy obedience, I wrote unto thee, knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say. But withal prepare me also a lodging: for I trust that through your prayers I shall be given unto you—the Greek word for albeit, Hina me, meaning in order not lest, that. Paul has won Onesimus, a slave of Philemon, to the Lord Jesus Christ, and he is bringing him back no longer as a slave but as a servant of God. Onesimus is the slave in the Greek dulos, and he is now a brother in Christ, and Paul has utmost confidence that Philemon will repay him what he owes, as to charge it to his account. We must do our work unto the Lord, knowing that of the Lord we shall receive an inheritance of the Lord. I pray that if you are suffering as a former slave, that you know we are the bond servants of the Lord Jesus Christ, and Jesus has said that what is right I will repay. He sent us into His vineyard to work for a penny a day. Give thanks unto the Lord for He is good, and His mercy endures forever.
#Who hath saved us, and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, but is now made manifest by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel. Whereunto I am appointed a preacher and an apostle, and a teacher to the Gentiles. Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. That good thing which was committed unto thee keep by the Holy Ghost which dwelleth in us. This thou knowest, that all they which are in Asia be turned away from me; of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes. For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless, I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day. The Greek word for persuaded is Peitho, meaning to convince by argument, true or false, by analogy to pacify, conciliate, assure, obey, and trust. Paull is giving us his assurance of the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ so that we too will not be ashamed of the gospel and know that God can keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day, for all those who live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. Phygellus and Hermogenes were false teachers who had turned away from the gospel, and he warned the brethren to be aware of them. Therefore, let us walk by this holy calling not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, but is now made manifest by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, for He hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel. May the God of all comfort console you, and give you the strength to endure these sufferings that have been committed unto us, for it is appointed unto not only to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, but to suffer for Him. Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world. Love not the world, for all that is in the world is the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eye, and the pride of life, and all these things are passing away, but whosoever does the will of God shall abide forever.2 Timothy 1-15
#Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? Who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders? Exodus 15:11
And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright as a heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea. The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them. Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them: they sank as lead in the mighty waters. Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them. Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed: thou hast guided them in thy strength unto thy holy habitation. The people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestine. The Hebrew word for holiness is Qodesh, meaning a sacred place or thing, sanctity, a consecrated, dedicated thing hallowed in the sanctuary. We praise thee, O Jehovah God, for we are fearfully and wonderfully made. Thou did open the Red Sea, and allowed our feet to walk on dry ground, and when the enemy pursued us, you blew with the wind, and they drowned in the depths of the ocean. Who is like unto thee in holiness? For thou only art holy, and we beseech thee to have mercy upon us. As we travel this barren land, we look unto thee, O Lord, and pray for thy mercy and grace to be upon us. Who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders? O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness, I will exalt thee in the heavens. For thou only art the Lord worthy of all our praises. May we walk in the light of thy love, and when you call us home, may we sit at thy feet praising thy name forevermore.
#And I, John, saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things. Revelation 22:8 Worship the Lord Jesus only, for He is the Spirit of prophecy.
And there shall be no night there, and they need no candle, neither light of the sun, for the Lord God giveth them light; and they shall reign forever and ever. And he said unto me, these sayings are faithful and true; and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent His angel to show unto his servants the things which must shortly be done. Behold, I come quickly; blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book. Then said he unto me. See thou do it not, for I am thy fellowservant and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book. Worship God. And he said unto me, Seal not the saying of the prophecy of this book; for the time is at hand. He that is unjust, let him be unjust still; and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still; and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still, and he that is holy, let him be holy still. The Greek word for worship is Proskuneo, meaning to fall face down, a physical act of lowering oneself in humble submission with the attitude of utmost adoration and respect. Worship the Lord Jesus only, for He is the Spirit of prophecy. John was so excited that he fell down to worship the angel, but the angel rebuked him and told him to worship God. For the Lord God is worthy of all our worship. We must keep the sayings of this book, for the time is at hand when the Lord Jesus Christ is being unveiled, and let him that is unjust be unjust still, and he which is filthy let him be filthy still, and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still, and he that is holy let him be holy still. For without holiness no man will see the Lord. So even so come Lord Jesus maranatha.
#The king spake, and said, Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for the house of the kingdom by the might of my power, and for the honour of my majesty? Daniel 4:30 Pride goes before destruction
Wherefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable unto thee, and break off thy sins by righteousness, and thine iniquities by showing mercy to the poor; if it may be a lengthening of thy tranquility. All this came upon the king Nebuchadnezzar. At the end of twelve months, he walked into the palace of the kingdom of Babylon. While the word was in the king's mouth, there fell a voice from heaven, saying, O Nebuchadnezzar, to thee it is spoken; The kingdom is departed from thee. And they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field: they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and seven times shall pass over thee, until thou know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever He will. The same hour was the thing fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar: and he was driven from men, and did eat grass as oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, until his hairs were grown like eagles' feathers, and his nails like birds' claws. The Hebrew word for power is Checen, meaning strength. Pride goes before destruction. When a leader fails to do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with thy God, he is headed for destruction. Daniel had warned King Nebuchadnezzar to stop sinning and show mercy unto the poor, for lengthening of thy tranquility. However, he did not heed the warning, and they drove him from men, and his dwelling was with the beasts of the field. The most high God rules in the affairs of men, and sets up the bases of men to lead them. Nebuchadnezzar had to eat grass like an ox, and his hair grew as eagles' feathers, and his nails like birds' claws, until he remembered that the Most High God rules in the kingdom of men. We pray that America will break off her sins, and remember the poor, and the immigrants, and show mercy unto them, before the Most High God brings her down, for pride goes before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall. It is time to do righteousness, for righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach unto all people.
#Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it. Psalms 139:6 Beautifully and wonderfully made
The Hebrew word for knowledge is Daath, meaning knowledge, cunning awareness, wittingly. 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. 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. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Beautifully and wonderfully made. That is what the Psalmist is saying to us. The Lord knew me in my mother's womb, and all my ways are known before me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me. It is high. What is man, that thou art mindful of Him? I praise God for we are fearfully and wonderfully made. We should praise the Lord and give Him all the glory. Thank God that abortions are no longer legal, and now the most dangerous place for a fetus is no longer in its mother's womb. Let us give all the glory to God, for He said if these babes would not praise Him, the very rocks would cry out. I am going to praise the name of the Lord, for He is high, and looks low. Let us give all the glory unto Jehovah God and praise Him every day. It is my prayer that you will give God the praise that He alone is worthy to receive. Jonah learned this lesson when he tried to run from the presence of the Lord. Then he cried in the belly of the whale, I will do what thou hast commanded me, and God caused the whale to vomit Jonah upon the earth. May this prayer be mine, Lord. I will do what thou hast commanded me to do, for you alone are worthy of all my worship and praises.
#But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed. Isaiah 53:5 Make peace with God before it is too late. For He shall grow up before him as a tender plant and as a root out of a dry ground; he hath no form nor comeliness, and when we shall see Him, there is no beauty that we should desire Him. He was despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief; and we hid as it were our faces from Him; He was despised, and we esteemed Him not. Surely He hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem Him stricken of God, and afflicted. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way, and the LORD hath laid on Him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed, and He was afflicted, yet He opened not His mouth. He is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so He opened not His mouth. He was taken from prison and from judgment; and who shall declare His generation? For He was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was He stricken. The Hebrew word for wounded is Chalal, meaning to bore, to dissolve, to profane, and denom. Make your peace with God before it is too late. Jesus is coming back in judgment, and all those who reject him shall be cast into the Lake of Fire. Thank God that He so loved the world that He gave His only Son, so that whosoever would believe on Him would not perish, but have everlasting life. For God did not send Him into the world to condemn the world, but that by Him, they might be saved. It is my prayer that you will accept Him today as your Personal Lord and Savior.
#And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto the LORD, and that should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army, and to say, Praise the LORD; for His mercy endureth forever. 2 Chronicles 20:21 Worship the Lord
And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell before the LORD, worshipping the LORD. And the Levites, of the children of the Kohathites, and of the children of the Korhites, stood up to praise the LORD God of Israel with a loud voice on high. And they rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa; and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem; Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe His prophets, so shall ye prosper. And when they began to sing and to praise the LORD set ambushments against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, which were come against Judah, and they were smitten. For the children of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, utterly to slay and destroy them; and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, every one helped to destroy another. And when Judah came toward the watch tower in the wilderness, they looked unto the multitude, and behold, they were dead bodies fallen to the earth, and none escaped. The Hebrew word for singers is Shiyr, through the idea of strolling minstrelsy. Jehoshaphat told the people to sing and worship Jehovah God in the beauty of holiness, and God caused the enemies of Judah to kill one another. And behold, they were dead bodies fallen to the earth, and none escaped. What a wonderful lesson to us to sing and praise the Lord, no matter what, and God will reward us Let us tell the army to praise Jehovah God, for His mercy endureth forever.
#But my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19 Worry about nothing
The Greek word for need is Chreia, meaning employment, i.e., an affair, occasion, demand, replacement, or destitution, use, or want. For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity. Not because I desire a gift, but I desire fruit that may abound to your account. But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, and odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, well pleasing to God. Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever Amen. Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren who are with me greet you. All the saints salute you, chiefly they that are in Caesar's household. Worry about nothing, and give thanks in all things, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. The saints in Thessalonica provided Paul with employment and a replacement for destitution through Apaphroditus. This was a sweet-smelling odor in Christ Jesus. We praise God, for it is more blessed to give than to receive, and thanks be unto God who shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. As we celebrate Purim today, let us thank God for Esther, who proclaimed a fast and went to the King without being summoned, saying, "If I perish, I perish." Thank the Lord for supplying the need and saving the Jews from annihilation. God works in mysterious ways and teaches us to pray to Him about everything and worry about nothing. Now unto God and our Father be glory forever and ever, Amen. Salute the saints for me, and greet one another with a holy kiss.
