Podcasts about trials

As we begin reading the first book of Maccabees today, Fr. Mike highlights the severe persecution against the Jews and the desecration of the Temple led by Antiochus Epiphanes. We also begin our journey in the book of Sirach today and learn about the fear of the Lord, clinging to the Lord in trials, and the importance of honoring our parents. Today's readings are 1 Maccabees 1, Sirach 1-3, and Proverbs 21:29-31. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear. Please note: The Bible contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.

Julia Zwayne joins the conversation to share about her new book, All Things Broken and Beautiful: What if Pain Was Not Forever, a heartfelt collection born out of years of compiling poems and reflections. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar welcome Julia, honoring both her writing and the way God has worked through her brokenness to bring hope. E.Z. highlights a favorite poem from her book, moved not only as a believer but also as a father, seeing the fruit of his daughter's faith at a young age. Oscar asks why despair has shaped so much of her writing, and Julia explains that the Lord often met her most powerfully in despair, bringing unexpected sweetness. The guys commend her gift, connecting it to their own stories of brokenness and dependence on God.Ray shares how brokenness shaped his ministry, realizing that God delights in a contrite heart. E.Z. reflects how God used his brokenness to replace self-assurance with a more profound fear of the Lord. They note how lament, a biblical form of worshipful despair, is often missing in the church, leaving people without language for their pain. Julia's poetry, often born from lament, becomes a testimony of truth and hope. She admits she tends to run to darkness out of habit, yet finds conviction and comfort in remembering God's perfect plan. For her, poetry is a means of falling to her knees, echoing the Psalms as she laments honestly yet clings to hope.Julia explains that stillness once terrified her because it left her alone with her thoughts, but she now knows she can walk through darkness with confidence in Christ. She writes in random bursts of inspiration, with her most powerful work often coming through times of pain. One such poem, "Blank Spaces," captures the monotony of life and the melancholy of routine, resonating with anyone who feels unseen in their daily struggles. The guys remind listeners that in despair, God is near—Jesus Himself wept at Lazarus' tomb, showing the depth of His compassion.The conversation grows vulnerable as the guys recall seasons of suffering, pointing to God's healing of the brokenhearted. They urge believers wrestling with despair to embrace lament but also allow the Lord to lift them into joy. Pain may last for a lifetime, but God's presence never leaves. Through brokenness, He equips His people to minister to others and reminds them not to underestimate the power of His Word. Without trials, faith would be shallow; with them, His grace is revealed as sufficient. And one day, standing at heaven's threshold, believers will look back in awe at how God used even the darkest moments for His glory.Send us a textThanks for listening!

But behind the medals and media attention is a woman who found strength, joy, and hope through running. Now in her fifties, Julie has completed over 118 marathons, raised more than $1 million for research, and continues to inspire others with her message that it's never too late to chase your dreams, honour your loved ones, and find purpose in every step.

From external to internal- Trials come to us from many different directions. The external pressure of trials many times leads to the internal pull of temptation. Thoughts of doubt and compromise can begin to invade our minds. There is a reward for enduring temptation.

Grief and loss can feel like ashes, but God promises to bring beauty, strength, and hope out of our pain. In Become Like an Oak Tree, Whitney Hopler reflects on Isaiah 61:2-3, reminding us that God grows us into “oaks of righteousness”—deeply rooted in His love, resilient through life’s storms, and a living display of His splendor. Highlights God transforms mourning into joy and despair into praise (Isaiah 61:2-3). Oak trees symbolize strength, endurance, and deep-rooted faith. Trials and grief become the soil where God plants new hope. Spiritual roots—through prayer, worship, and trust—anchor us in storms. Our testimony of faith gives others shade, comfort, and encouragement. Join the Conversation Where have you seen God bring beauty out of your ashes? Share your story and encourage others to stay rooted in faith. Tag @LifeAudioNetwork and use #OaksOfRighteousness #BeautyFromAshes #FaithThatEndures to join the conversation.

In a special episode, Greg and Ed interview Kevin Maes in Kevin's own podcast studio on Rama IV. Kevin is a long-time expat in Thailand hailing from Belgium who became entangled in a very unfortunate crime drama and subsequently wrote a book about it called ‘Kingdom of Trials,' which is now available on Amazon. Kevin begins with his Thai ‘origin story,' how he ended up in the Land of Smiles, and more importantly, how and why he fell in love with it.  Unfortunately, he eventually was sucked into a drama involving his ex-wife's boyfriend that shockingly ended in the boyfriend's death. Kevin and another friend were charged with murder, and a years-long ordeal would ensue involving the ins and outs of the Thai justice system. Kevin recounts his fears step-by-step, including his shocking (but somewhat heartening) decision to return to Thailand to face the Thai justice process even though he had an opportunity to remain in Belgium safely for the rest of his life.  Suffice it to say, both the interview and the book are worth the interest of any expat or serious Thai-phile.  Don't forget that Patrons get the ad-free version of the show as well as swag and other perks.

In this episode, we explore Doctrine and Covenants sections 115 through 120—some of the most defining revelations in the history of the early Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. These revelations, given in 1838, officially establish the divinely revealed name of the Church, emphasizing that it must bear the name of Jesus Christ to clearly identify whose Church it is. The Lord also directs the Saints to build up the sacred gathering place of Adam-ondi-Ahman in Missouri—a site tied to ancient prophecy and the future return of the Savior. Through these commands, the Saints are reminded that their work is not only about organizing a church but about preparing a people and a place for the coming of Christ. Sections 119 and 120 introduce the law of tithing, a principle that would bless both individual Saints and the Church collectively. This revelation set a divine pattern of sacrifice and stewardship, where the faithful contribute one-tenth of their increase to sustain the Lord's work on earth. These sections show how the Lord guides His people in both spiritual and temporal matters—establishing identity through His name, unity through sacred gathering places, and consecration through the law of tithing. Together, these revelations reflect the growing maturity of the restored Church and the Lord's ongoing pattern of preparing His Saints for Zion.

Series: RootedWeek 5 Title: There Is an Enemy!Scripture: Ephesians 6:10–20Big Idea: There is a real enemy who opposes God and His people—but Christ has already won the victory. We don't fight for victory; we fight from it.I. The Reality of the EnemyEvil isn't just human—it's spiritual. There is an unseen realm of darkness opposing God's Kingdom.Satan is not a myth or symbol—he is a fallen angel who rebelled against God and now seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10).The devil's greatest trick is convincing the world he doesn't exist.Everything God creates, Satan counterfeits.II. The Enemy's Strategy1. Temptation to SinSatan entices believers to gratify the flesh outside of God's will.Sin becomes a stronghold when it moves from struggle to pattern.2 Corinthians 10:3–5 — take every thought captive.We defeat temptation by walking in the Spirit (Galatians 5:16–17).2. Accusation and LiesThe enemy is “the father of lies” (John 8:44).He twists God's Word and distorts truth to produce shame and confusion.Agreements with lies (“I am unworthy,” “God doesn't care”) must be broken by declaring God's truth.Romans 8:1 — no condemnation for those in Christ.3. Persecution and SufferingThe spirit of darkness opposes the Spirit in you.Believers worldwide face hatred and persecution (Matthew 10:22–23).Trials refine faith and earn eternal reward (James 1:12).III. The Path to VictoryVictory begins with salvation: transferred from the kingdom of darkness into the Kingdom of God's Son (Colossians 1:13).Put on the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:13–17):Belt of truth – stand against lies.Breastplate of righteousness – guard your heart.Shoes of peace – stay grounded in the gospel.Shield of faith – extinguish doubt and fear.Helmet of salvation – protect your mind with assurance.Sword of the Spirit – strike back with the Word of God.We are protected and empowered to stand firm.The fight is not ours—it's God's.IV. Christ's TriumphColossians 2:15 — Jesus disarmed the rulers and authorities, making a public spectacle of them by the cross.The cross was not His defeat—it was His victory parade.Satan and shame are already conquered.We march in triumph behind our King.

Matha Tere's Challenge ep.797 James Rumpel is a retired high school math teacher who enjoys spending his free time trying to turn a few of the odd ideas circling his brain into actual stories. he lives in Wisconsin with his wonder wife, Mary.   More TTV Stories by James Rumpel: https://talltaletv.com/tag/james-rumpel/   ---- Listen Elsewhere ---- YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/c/TallTaleTV Website: http://www.TallTaleTV.com   ---- Story Submission ---- Got a short story you'd like to submit? Submission guidelines can be found at http://www.TallTaleTV.com   ---- About Tall Tale TV ---- Hi there! My name is Chris Herron and I'm an audiobook narrator. In 2015, I suffered from poor Type 1 diabetes control which lead me to become legally blind for almost a year. The doctors didn't give me much hope, predicting an 80% chance that I would never see again. But I refused to give up and changed my lifestyle drastically. Through sheer willpower (and an amazing eye surgeon) I beat the odds and regained my vision. During that difficult time, I couldn't read or write, which was devastating as they had always been a source of comfort for me since childhood. However, my wife took me to the local library where she read out the titles of audiobooks to me. I selected some of my favorite books, such as the Disc World series, Name of the Wind, Harry Potter, and more, and the audiobooks brought these stories to life in a way I had never experienced before. They helped me through the darkest period of my life and I fell in love with audiobooks. Once I regained my vision, I decided to pursue a career as an audiobook narrator instead of a writer. That's why I created Tall Tale TV, to support aspiring authors in the writing communities that I had grown to love before my ordeal. My goal was to help them promote their work by providing a promotional audio short story that showcases their writing skills to readers. They say the strongest form of advertising is word of mouth, so I offer a platform for readers to share these videos and help spread the word about these talented writers. Please consider sharing these stories with your friends and family to support these amazing authors.

Email us at podcast@pursueGOD.org.Donate Now --Believable Lie #3: God Won't Give Me More Than I Can HandleIt sounds comforting to say “God won't give you more than you can handle,” but it's not true. In fact, the Bible teaches the opposite. Paul admitted he was “crushed and overwhelmed beyond his ability to endure” (2 Corinthians 1:8). Why? Because God never intended us to handle life on our own. He allows more than we can bear so that we'll finally lean on Him. The promise isn't that we'll never be overwhelmed—the promise is that we'll never be abandoned.The Misunderstood VerseThis lie comes from a misreading of 1 Corinthians 10:13. The verse isn't about suffering—it's about temptation. God promises He won't let temptation be more than we can bear, and He always provides a “way out.” But suffering is different. Sometimes we really do face more than we can handle.The Truth About TemptationTemptations are real but not irresistible. Israel's history proves this: some fell, others stood firm—not because temptation was weaker but because God was stronger. Endurance is possible, not by willpower but by God's faithfulness (Hebrews 2:18, James 1:12, 2 Thessalonians 3:3). God's “way out” can be changing your environment, fighting back with Scripture, or reaching out to others for help.The Truth About SufferingUnlike temptation, suffering may indeed overwhelm us. Paul admitted he faced trials he couldn't endure on his own (2 Corinthians 1:8-9). Yet suffering teaches us to rely on God, not ourselves. It drives us into the arms of Jesus and into the comfort of His people. God comforts us so that we can comfort others (2 Corinthians 1:4).The Big PictureGod may give us more than we can handle, but He will never give us more than He can handle. Trials push us to depend on Christ, to lean on our church family, and to prepare the next generation to do the same. Suffering will come. But Christ is enough.

Description: Manda Nielson: In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, today's episode delves into the often difficult-to-discuss topic of suicide awareness as we welcome our friend, Manda, a Suicide Prevention Specialist. Manda and Camille discuss their personal experiences with suicidal ideation, depression, living with chronic illness, and the spiritual tool kit they each developed along the way to not only live through these struggles, but strengthen their connection to the divine with spiritual practices, and outside-of-the-box thinking that helped them stay afloat.There is no one-size fits all solution, and we strongly affirm that we are not defined by our death. There is hope and healing available on both sides of the veil.Let us know your thoughts in the comments.Want to watch the podcast instead?

Bardstown was once called the most beautiful small town in America. Bourbon country. Quiet streets. A place where nothing bad was supposed to happen. Then came the ambush of Officer Jason Ellis. A year later, the brutal murders of Kathy and Samantha Netherland. Soon after, Crystal Rogers vanished on the Fourth of July. Three crimes. Three families. One town. No answers. For years, everything sat in silence. But this summer, something shifted. Trials. Testimony. Secrets rising to the surface. Part 1 takes us back to where it all began. And it's only the beginning.

On Prophecy Radio episode #142, Karen and Kristen dissect the latest Percy Jackson and the Olympians news, plus the release of The Court of the Dead by Rick Riordan and Mark Oshiro. They also discuss The Red Pyramid chapters 37 and 38, including their favorite moments and what they think will happen next. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air every other week. All discussions are PG-13. News and Updates (00:10:37) The Court of the Dead by Rick Riordan and Mark Oshiro is officially out in the world! Did you get any of the special editions? (We definitely did.) Did you see the pictures and videos of Rick signing books and Funkos? Leah turned 16 last month! Do these Percy Jackson and the Olympians behind-the-scenes clips mean we'll be getting another BTS documentary?? We go through a slightly older Entertainment Weekly article to discuss the next Senior Year Adventures book. When can we expect the third and final Senior Year book to come out? Rick is strictly a middle grade author, and we're cool with that. What other gods would make for good series fodder a la Trials of Apollo? Other character-centric books are still on the table, and boy do we want them! The Red Pyramid discussion (00:29:14) All right, let's refresh our brains on what happened last time. Good. Now we can jump into The Red Pyramid chapter 37. Why does Set keep flickering between forms? We've really come around on Amos since we learned the truth. Set is SO sassy, and we're kind of here for it. Horus still wants to take over Carter's body, and Carter is still telling him no. Uh, where the heck is Nephthys? Sadie protecc. Thank goodness Carter figures out what Zia meant when she told him not to resist. Carter turns into a total badass! Favorite lines and favorite scenes. All right, time to jump into The Red Pyramid chapter 38. Carter having fun fighting and beating up on Set is slightly concerning. Why do they BOTH bleed black? They're about to bring down the house, so Carter tricks Set into becoming a fruit bat and then drags him outside the pyramid. Will Sadie be able to free their dad from the throne and his sarcophagus? We kind of already knew how to defeat Set, but he really lays it out for Carter. Did we feel bad about what happened to Desjardins? We totally did not expect Set to put the capstone on top of the pyramid. Sadie is a freaking rainbow, y'all! What name could Sadie have shouted? We wanted to read the next chapter SO BAD! But we discuss our favorite lines and favorite moments instead. Feedback (01:09:31) Ensign_Davies and Maria write in to tell us what they think of The Court of the Dead. Caoimhe is super excited about Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, and she let's us know one of our previous episodes was missing links. That's all fixed now! Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 143, where we'll discuss The Red Pyramid chapters 39 and 40, as well as get you up to date on more Percy Jackson and Rick Riordan news.

Welcome back to When Words Fail Music Speaks, the show that proves that when words fall short, music says it all. In this episode, host James Cox sits down with longtime friend and blue‑grass powerhouse Carolyn Routh for a deep‑dive into the moments that shaped her life and career.From church choirs in Siler City, N.C. to the national blue‑grass stage – Carolyn recounts her first “two‑front‑teeth” talent‑show debut, the high‑school musical years, and the pivotal switch from contemporary Christian music to the blue‑grass world of New Blue.Trials and triumphs – a 2003 stroke that stole her speech and mobility, the grueling rehab that birthed the anthem “Make Me Whole Again,” and the gospel‑driven “Nail‑by‑Nail” that marked her comeback.The art of the song – why a good song matters more than genre, her love for everything from contemporary Christian, bluegrass, and even a reluctant respect for rap, plus the “caramel‑colored” timbre of her voice.Behind the scenes – the family‑run restaurant legacy, the quirky band dynamics (the “quick‑shower” Daniel, banjo‑player Austin, mandolinist Justin), and the creation of Bluegrass Ridge TV, the world's largest blue‑grass TV channel.Favorites & “can't‑tell‑me‑how‑I‑feel” moments – from the haunting “Resurrection Song” to the “Knocking on Heaven's Door” cover that started a fan‑favorite tradition.All this and more—tour dates, a caramel‑sweet dessert, a caramel‑colored voice, and a promise that the road never stops—are waiting for you. Grab your headphones, press play, and let the music do the talking.

Final Surge: https://www.finalsurge.com (RUNNINGEFFECT20)Few coaches have reshaped a running program the way Laurie Henes has.For more than three decades, she's been at the heart of NC State running, first as a competitor, then as a builder of champions.As an athlete, Laurie was an eight-time All-American, the 1991 NCAA 5,000-meter champion, and later competed for the U.S. at the 1995 World Championships (10,000m).She had personal bests of 15:31 for 5,000 meters and 32:05 for 10,000 meters.She knows the grind of the sport firsthand: the glory of winning and the sting of just missing an Olympic team by two places at the 1996 Trials in the 10,000m.That perspective carried seamlessly into her coaching career.Since joining the Wolfpack staff in the early '90s, Laurie has shaped the program into a national powerhouse.She became the women's cross country head coach in 2006, and in 2019, she was elevated to head coach of women's track & field.Since summer 2023, she has served as Director of Track & Field and Cross Country.The results speak for themselves: under her leadership, NC State women's cross country teams captured three straight NCAA titles from 2021 through 2023.She's coached NCAA champions like her daughter Elly Henes and Katelyn Tuohy, as well as countless All-Americans.Tap into the Laurie Henes Special.If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review!I would also appreciate it if you share it with your friend who you think will benefit from it.Comment the word “PODCAST” below and I'll DM you a link to listen.If this episode blesses you, please share it with a friend!S H O W N O T E SThe Run Down By The Running Effect (our new newsletter!): https://tinyurl.com/mr36s9rsBUY MERCH BEFORE IT'S GONE: https://shop.therunningeffect.runOur Website: https://therunningeffect.runTHE PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClLcLIDAqmJBTHeyWJx_wFQMy Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/therunningeffect/?hl=enTake our podcast survey: https://tinyurl.com/3ua62ffz

In this edition of UBC "Sermon Discussions" Pastor Jason answers questions related to his Genesis 39:1-23 sermon.The main idea for the sermon was: The blessing of God's presence will help us in times of life's trials.Questions discussed in this episode: Why does God put us through Trials? ...Faithfulness to God doesn't always result in worldly blessings (meaning losing job, friends, family, or even life). Why would God put me through something like this if I am faithful to him?How do I know that God is with me? Is there ever a time that God isn't with me?Sexual immorality is probably one of the hardest things to flee. What are ways I can be prepared to flee sexual temptation?Was Jesus ever tempted sexually?As a reminder we have created a place where you can send us your questions regarding the sermons or topics we discuss in these podcasts.

As of today, October 1, 2025, the court trials involving Donald Trump remain a significant focus of legal and political attention. Just a few months ago, on January 10, 2025, Trump was sentenced to an unconditional discharge in a New York case, following a guilty verdict on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records. This verdict was a major development in the ongoing legal saga surrounding Trump, who was indicted by a Manhattan grand jury on March 30, 2023. The trial began on April 15, 2024, and by May 30, 2024, a Manhattan jury found Trump guilty of these charges.In another significant case, Trump was indicted in the Southern District of Florida on June 8, 2023, alongside his aide Waltine Nauta and later Carlos De Oliveira, on charges related to national defense information and obstruction of justice. However, on July 15, 2024, Judge Aileen Cannon dismissed the federal indictment, ruling that Special Counsel Jack Smith was improperly appointed and funded. The Justice Department later appealed this decision but eventually dismissed it on November 29, 2024, for Trump and extended the dismissal to Nauta and De Oliveira on January 29, 2025.In Washington, D.C., Trump was indicted on August 1, 2023, on charges including corruptly obstructing an official proceeding and conspiracy to defraud the United States. The case was initially stalled due to Trump's immunity claim, which was heard by the Supreme Court. On August 2, 2024, the case was remanded back to the district court, but on December 6, 2024, Judge Chutkan granted the government's motion to dismiss the case.These developments highlight the complex and evolving nature of Trump's legal challenges. As Trump navigates these legal cases, his legal team continues to engage in various appeals and motions, shaping the trajectory of his ongoing trials.Thank you for tuning in today.

Julia Zwayne shares about her new book, a collection of poems and reflections shaped by seasons of brokenness and God's comfort. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar hear how despair often became where the Lord met her most deeply, turning sorrow into hope. The guys reflect on the value of lament, a form of worship often overlooked in the church, as a means that draws believers closer to God. Julia explains how poetry helps her process pain and return to truth, admitting past tendencies to run toward darkness but finding confidence in Christ. One of her poems, “Blank Spaces,” captures life's monotony and resonates with those who feel unseen. Together they affirm that even in despair God is near, His grace is sufficient, and He uses trials to deepen faith, equip His people, and ultimately bring glory to Himself.Send us a textThanks for listening!

Drawing from John 10:10, we'll explore how Jesus came to give us abundant life and how every good thing in our lives is a gift from God.When trials come (and they will), we don't have to loseheart. Instead, we can keep our faith strong by focusing on God's promises.Speak them out loud, write them down, and remind yourself daily of His faithfulness. The more we keep our eyes on His goodness, the stronger our faith becomes.Tune in to Learn:Everything that is good comes from God (John10:10).The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy, butJesus came to bring an abundant and full life.Trials are temporary, but God's promises areeternal.Be encouraged: No matter what season you're in, you can hold onto this unshakable truth: God is good, and His goodness never fails.“The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, andto destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.” (John 10:10 NKJV)

Peter shares insights into the agronomic and economic aspects of apple farming, addressing topics like grafting, soil requirements, pest management, pruning, and the importance of understanding one's strengths in farming. The discussion extends to the cider-making process, including fermenting, aging, blending, and addressing how Milk and Honey balances customer demand with their craft.

From ancient Sumerian epics to modern-day sightings in England's Cannock Chase, the werewolf has terrorized humanity for over 2,000 years — and the real history includes medieval trials that tortured and executed thousands of accused shapeshifters, medical conditions that spawned the legends, and 35 documented sightings in a single forest that continue to this day. Journey through the dark truth behind lycanthropy, from the She-Wolves of Jülich who allegedly killed 94 people to the shocking werewolf trials that made witch hunts look merciful, and discover why every culture on Earth has its own terrifying version of the wolf-human hybrid.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE for the ad-free version: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: The idea of the werewolf has been with us for a long time – the first mention of a werewolf that we know of is over two thousand years ago. We'll look at the origins of the werewolf, look at whether they are actually real, and if so, how one goes about becoming one, and some of the cures believed to release the man from the beast. Of course, it's not always the Wolf-Man… sometimes it's the Wolf-Woman. We'll look at the most fearsome lady werewolves throughout history! I'll tell you about the trials and punishments of those convicted of being werewolves – many probably wish they'd have confessed to being witches instead! Plus, what if I was to tell you that werewolves truly ARE real – and that a small village has been terrorized by them for decades – right up to modern day? There is convincing evidence to back up my claim!

In Acts 21, We see Paul boldly walking into God's calling, even when he knows hardship is ahead. This message dives deep into:How to discern God's will in challenging seasonsTrusting the Holy Spirit as your ultimate “warranty” through trialsCourage and faith in the face of oppositionLessons for today's believers about obedience, perseverance, and God's provisionWhether you're stepping into a new calling, facing trials in ministry, or simply wanting to grow in your faith, this message will encourage and equip you to walk faithfully with God.Main scripture: Acts 21:1–36

Jesus Followers Should Fear, Respect, and Praise God's Power, Sovereignty, and Holiness; but in Life's Trials They Should “fear not for I {Jesus} am with you always” MESSAGE SUMMARY: You should fear, respect, and praise God's power, Sovereignty, and Holiness; but, as a Jesus Follower, you should “fear not” in life's trials and tribulations or at your time of judgment. As David's praise tells us in Psalms 103:13: “As a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear Him.”. David models again and again, in Psalms, how we should praise God. For example, in Psalms 146, David says: "Put not your trust in Princes; Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord, Oh my soul!". When we are wondering how to praise the Lord, we can read one of David's Psalms to God like David's praises to the Lord in Psalms 112:1-2: “Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who greatly delights in his commandments! His offspring will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.". Also, we learn in Proverbs 1:7, the “fear of the Lord” and “wisdom” are closely linked: “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.". These verses from the Old Testament point to the fear, respect, and praise that God warrants and demands from His power, sovereignty, and Holiness. On the other hand, as we see when the Apostle John quotes Jesus from Revelation 1:17-18, when Jesus, in all His power and Glory, reassures us of God's Grace and His plan for working out the Salvation and Eternal Life for all those that have accepted Jesus as their Savior: “When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. But he laid his right hand on me, saying, ‘Fear not, I am the first and the last, and the living one. I died, and behold I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of Death and Hades.'”.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, Sabbath rest is truly an unbelievable gift! Thank you that there is nothing I can do to earn your love; it comes without any strings attached. As I close my eyes for these few minutes before you, all I can say is, thank you! In Jesus' name, amen.  Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 133). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM RIGHTEOUS IN GOD'S EYES. God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God. 2 Corinthians 5:21 SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): Revelation 1:17-18; Psalms 118:1-20; Proverbs 1:7; Psalms 73a:1-14.
