We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

If we allow the Bible to reveal the unseen spiritual realities behind addictions, we suddenly realize that addictions are more than self-destructive behaviors. They are violations of God’s laws: His laws that call us to avoid drunkenness and immoderate self-indulgence (Rom. 13:13), His law that calls us to love others (1 John 4:7), and His law that calls us to live for Him rather than ourselves (1 Cor. 10:31). This means that addiction is more about someone’s relationship with God than it is about biology. It reveals our allegiances: what we want, what we love, whom and what we serve. It brings us to that all-important question, “Will you live for the fulfillment of your desires or for God?
Edward Welch

You can do little for the welfare of your children once you have lost your authority over them. Don't allow them by your lightness, weakness, and folly, to trample upon you; but keep up so much authority that your word may be a law unto them. Nevertheless, do not let your authority be strained with such harshness and fierceness as may discourage your children. To treat our children like slaves, and with such rigor that they shall always tremble and abhor the idea of coming into our presence, is very unlike our heavenly Father.
Cotton Mather

149:1 Sangeren byder Israel å love Herren for den nåde og frelse han har gitt det, 1-4, og uttaler så sin faste forvissning om at det skal seire over sine hedenske fiender og straffe dem for hvad de har gjort imot det, 5-9.

149:1 Halleluja! Syng Herren en ny sang, hans pris i de frommes forsamling!

149:2 Israel glede sig i sin skaper, Sions barn fryde sig i sin konge!

149:3 De skal love hans navn med dans, lovsynge ham til pauke og citar.

149:4 For Herren har behag i sitt folk, han pryder de saktmodige med frelse.

149:5 De fromme skal fryde sig i herlighet, de skal juble på sitt leie.

149:6 Lovsang for Gud er i deres munn og et tveegget sverd i deres hånd,

149:7 for å fullbyrde hevn over hedningene, straff over folkene,

149:8 for å binde deres konger med lenker og deres fornemme menn med jernbånd,

149:9 for å fullbyrde foreskreven straffedom over dem. Dette er en ære for alle hans fromme. Halleluja!
