* God goes before us as HE did in the past years.

It is good to review those things God has done for us in the past, knowing it is still God who goes before us to do HIS will and HIS purpose in our lives.

Deuteronomy 1:30-31   The Lord your God which goeth before you, HE shall fight for you, according to all that HE did for you in Egypt before your eyes;  And in the wilderness, where thou hast seen how that the Lord thy God bare thee, as a man doth bear his son, in all the way that ye went, until ye came into this place.

I often think of the night I was born again by the Spirit of God ... and of the specific times God spoke to me to tell me what to do through the years.

These things sustain us and encourage us.

***

Deuteronomy 3:22  Ye shall not fear them: for the Lord your God HE shall fight for you.


***

Isaiah 54:15   Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by ME: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake.

17   No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of ME, saith the Lord.


***

Don't we, who are of God, desire to honor God and to honor the Word of God?

Wouldn't we hate to "disappoint" God?  I know I would.

Peter tells us how to live daily.

II Peter 3:14    Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless.

We work to live in the peace of God, doing the will of God,  pleasing God.
