The Day is coming…..!

“For behold, the day is coming,
Burning like an oven,

And all the proud, yes, all who do wickedly will be stubble.
And the day which is coming shall burn them up,” Says the LORD of hosts,
“ That will leave them neither root nor branch.

But to you who fear My name
The Sun of Righteousness shall arise
With healing in His wings;
And you shall go out
And grow fat like stall-fed calves.
You shall trample the wicked,
For they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet

On the day that I do this,”
Says the LORD of hosts.

“ Remember the Law of Moses, My servant,
Which I commanded him in Horeb for all Israel,
With the statutes and judgments.

Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet
Before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD.
And he will turn
The hearts of the fathers to the children,
And the hearts of the children to their fathers,
Lest I come and strike the earth with a curse.”

Take care of your parents…

Listen to your father, who gave you life,
and do not forget your mother when she is old.
Learn the truth and never reject it.
Get wisdom, self-control, and understanding.
The father of a good child is very happy;
parents who have wise children are glad  because of them.
Make your father and mother happy;
give your mother a reason to be glad

                                                            King Solomon

Ecclesiastes 3

Fear God the creator of all things…

But regarding anything beyond this, dear friend, go easy. There’s no end to the publishing of books, and constant study wears you out so you’re no good for anything else. The last and final word is this:
   Fear God.
   Do what he tells you.

And that’s it. Eventually God will bring everything that we do out into the open and judge it according to its hidden intent, whether it’s good or evil.

                                                              King Solomon

 

Ecclesiastes 12:12-14  

The Message (MSG)

Don’t withold good….

Proverbs 3:27-35

When it is in your power, ^[a]
    don’t withhold good ^(A) from the one to whom it is due.

    ²⁸ Don’t say to your neighbor, “Go away! Come back later.
    I’ll give it tomorrow”—when it is there with you. ^(B)

    ²⁹ Don’t plan any harm against your neighbor, ^(C)
    for he trusts you and lives near you.

    ³⁰ Don’t accuse anyone without cause, ^(D)
    when he has done you no harm.

    ³¹ Don’t envy a violent man ^(E)
    or choose any of his ways;

    ³² for the devious are detestable to the LORD,
    but He is a friend ^[b] to the upright. ^(F)

    ³³ The LORD‘s curse is on the household of the wicked, ^(G)
    but He blesses the home of the righteous;

    ³⁴ He mocks those who mock,
    but gives grace to the humble. ^(H)

    ³⁵ The wise will inherit honor,
    but He holds up fools to dishonor. ^[c]

                                                        King Solomon
