“[A Psalm of David.] LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill? He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart. He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour. In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the LORD. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not. He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.”
Psalm 15:1-5, KJV
“I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.” Psalm 16:8, KJV
“My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him. He only is my rock and my salvation: he is my defence; I shall not be moved. In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God. Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah.” Psalm 62:5-8, KJV
“Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance. He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD.” Psalm 112:6-7, KJV
“A man shall not be established by wickedness: but the root of the righteous shall not be moved.” Proverbs 12:3, KJV
“For David speaketh concerning him, I foresaw the Lord always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved:” Acts 2:25, KJV
Please note that Psalm 16:8-11 and Acts 2:25-32 is a prophecy about Jesus being raised from the dead.
Let me tell you that Satan is so smart,
He knew just how to get in our midst,
You see, some six thousand years ago,
God’s Word he began to wrest and twist.
Eve was that serpent’s very first victim,
But that gal was definitely not his last,
The Bible says during the First Century,
Killing false doctrines was a hard task.
Today the situation is even more tragic,
As brethren fight to prove they’re right,
So many have forgotten all about love,
But sly Satan, oh he stays out of sight.
He’s just so happy to see the division,
Because a divided Church is so weak,
Please take heed to this my warning,
Ask God to keep you humble and meek.
Yes, be persuaded in your own mind,
As we’re advised to do by Apostle Paul,
But regarding those doctrinal debates,
Be wise and don’t engage in them at all.
I bet you think that you’re oh so cool,
But could it be that you’re just a tool?
They wind you up and they set you down,
And you prance around just like a clown.
Your controllers tell you what to say,
You spew propaganda all the live long day.
You seem to think that you are so free,
Down you go if they say “Bend the knee!”
Free from your masters not really you are,
You’re just like a bug in a mason jar.
You see outside but you’re trapped within,
See, there they go winding you up again.
“[[A Psalm of praise.]] Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands.” Psalm 100:1, KJV
A JOYFUL noise, and NOT a hellish noise!
Excerpt from my article entitled “God’s Golden Teeth, or Satan’s Delusion”:
—– Begin Quote —–
In like manner, some of the Christian music which fills the airwaves today is indeed inspiring and uplifting; although personally, I never really listen to any of it; partially because I require a quiet environment in order to do my work for the Lord, and also, because I do not like all of the commercials and doctrinal programs which fill up the time slots in between the good music. At the same time, I must also tell you that after paying closer attention to some of the song lyrics on some of the radio shows which are geared towards young Christians, that is, when you can even hear them through the “music”, I have to conclude that some of it is not only a far cry from the beautiful Psalms of King David, but it is downright unchristian. It is no better than the hard rock, worldly music that I used to listen to as a young teenager before I began to follow the Lord. It is a deceptive mixture of Satanic noise, with the words “Christ”, “Jesus”, “Lord”, “God”, etc., lightly dispersed throughout the song, in order to give it a somewhat “Christian” flavor.
This so-called “Christian rock” music reminds me of one of those vanilla ice cream bars which you eat on a stick, which has a thin chocolate covering on the outside. It appears to be one thing, but you quickly discover that it is something entirely different once you bite into it. It is truly sad, because you see, just as some of their parents are being deceived by the sights, sounds and thrills of all of these so-called “manifestations”, which are being performed by the ringleaders at their spiritual circuses, the children are doing the very same thing when they attend these “Christian rock” concerts. Both parents and children are getting excited and emotional in the flesh by these things, but it is all just Satan’s deceptive counterfeit. Once a person leaves the Christian rock concert, or the fellowship filled with all of these “manifestations”, the temporary thrill wears off; and for the next six days, they live their ho-hum existence, until they can go back for a refill when the next weekend arrives. This is not what true Christianity is about.
To improve your social network fate,
You should always try to reciprocate.
If your friend comments on your post,
Do you also respond as a good host?
Do not ignore them or just be a snob,
Being nice is actually part of your job.
Adding your like or a comment will do,
It shows your friend that you care too.
But if you desire to go that extra mile,
Go visit their timeline for a little while.
Add likes & comments where you can,
They’ll then say “Wow, you’re the man!”
It is really about courtesy & being nice,
Which is lacking if you want my advice.
So many online folks are just plain rude,
As a Christian, don’t be like them, dude.
It is true that sometimes it can be hard,
But it always pays to go that extra yard.
If someone’s mean, then just back away,
No obligation to hear whatever they say.
Sometimes you just don’t have a choice,
Who wants to listen to the devil’s voice?
So these are suggestions to think about,
I hope some of them will help you out.
