The fear of Adonai [Lord] is the Beginning of Knowledge,
but Fools despise Wisdom and Discipline.
Proverbs 1:7 Complete Jewish Bible
***
How good it is to sing praises to our God!
How sweet, how fitting to praise Him!
He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
Our Lord is Great, His Power is vast,
His Wisdom beyond all telling.
Adonai [Lord] sustains the humble but brings the wicked down to the ground.
He takes no delight in the strength of a horse,
no pleasure in a runner’s speed.
Adonai [Lord] takes pleasure in those who fear Him,
in those who wait for His Grace.
Psalms 147:1,3,5-6;10-11

May this New Prayer Series, be a blessing to each of you who part-take of it. The Lord encouraged me to re-read the Psalms, chapters 1-150 as He ministered to my soul over the last three months. The Book of Psalms have transformed my soul in a mighty way, thus these newer blog post are a collection of the Psalms that renovated my heart during a very difficult challenge in my life recently.
Continue to be faithful to our Lord in every aspect of your life. Remain strong in great courage when you are facing challenges that appear to be greater than yourself. Pray for those who are blinded by their ignorance and pride, while permitting God to grant you the ability in time…to forgive them who hurt your soul.
Thank the many of you who faithfully, read http://firstfruitsperspective.org/ each week and provide positive input and feedback per post. God Bless you and keep you.
Grace and Peace
