Scriptures are from the King James Bible.
This week our Lord has emphasized to me peace and holiness. Also, He requested that I remind His people not to be discouraged about waiting on Him.
Recently, relative to how our Lord manifests, I heard it said, "A delay is not a denial." Certainly, that is true sometimes. While at other times a denial is, in truth, a denial. When, though, a delay is not a denial, most of us have experienced answers to our needs and desires often on GOD'S schedule and not ours. We must wait on the Lord with joy and trust that He knows best. GOD'S Word is truth regardless of circumstances. Satan aims to discourage us in our waits but we must steadfastly choose to triumph over his purposes and to rejoice in the Lord ALWAYS - so says the Holy Bible in Philippians 4:4 .
Remember Daniel 10:12, 13:
Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words.
Daily, peace and holiness Scriptures are a focus for me until our Lord shifts me elsewhere. I still do other daily Bible reading but include peace and holiness Scripture readings every morning.
In the kingdom of GOD, we're most effective in holiness. Holy living is pure and gains major and steadfast victories for the advancement of GOD'S purposes. He's delighted with holiness because it purely represents Him.
Satan hates when we are in peace in the midst of whatever he launches against us. He desires that we be disturbed and fainthearted. The devil's goal is to keep us uneasy because he knows that such hinders our movements for GOD.
Here are some of the scriptures that I'm reading every morning along with Ephesians 6:11-19:
Numbers 25:12
Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace.
Psalm 55:18
He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle that was against me:...
Jeremiah 14:13
...I will give you assured peace in this place.
1 Samuel 2:2
There is none holy as the Lord:...
1 Peter 1:15
But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;
Revelation 3:7
...These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth;
Revelation 22:11
...let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.
