There is a passage which speaks of the millennium, when Jesus Christ will rule upon earth, upon David's throne for a thousand years. But I think we can also take it and apply it spiritually to ourselves right now. It is found in the Psalms. "The mountains shall bring peace to the people, and the …

Caring For the Poor
We "should remember the poor." We were poor and Jesus Christ gave us everything. We have been "blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ" and surely, "God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work." …
Thinking Upon The LORD
There is a really interesting passage in the Old Testament, which speaks about a certain book called "the book of remembrance;" it reads, "Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another: and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the …
Gloriously Triumphant
Right after Israel was delivered out of Pharaoh's hands Moses and the children of Israel sang a song to The LORD. "Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the LORD, and spake, saying, I will sing unto the LORD, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he …
Productive Hearing
When we hear God's word, we must be careful to hear it correctly. There is a possibility of listening or reading God's word and it not bearing fruit in our lives because we listened to it or read it incorrectly. Look at two passages from Ezekiel and Hebrews, which shows us the importance of welcoming …
Seven Times Brighter
In the Millennium, when Jesus Christ reigns literally on earth from David's throne in New Jerusalem, the sun will be seven times brighter! It is already extremely bright; and probably the brightest thing we experience on this earth, but God says in Isaiah, "Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of …
The Wisdom of Returning
There is a proverb which makes me think of the parable of the lost son in Luke 15 who took his father's inheritance, wasted it, and then in wisdom, returned to his father. The Proverb reads, "Whoso loveth wisdom rejoiceth his father: but he that kept company with harlots spendeth his substance." [Prov 29:3] And …
Anointed With Joy
Jesus lived a perfect life. That much is obvious. Every command of God Jesus kept perfectly every second He was on earth. And He did this through the power of The Holy Spirit. Jesus Himself testified, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me" as it was prophesied in Isaiah 61:1. The Father told us …
A Thousand Times Better
The best place in the world to be is in God's presence: we should be continually seeking this out. David tells us that being in God's presence is the chief thing he desired in life; saying, "One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the …
The Price of Water
The Rock in the wilderness, from which the Israelites got water, is a very significant miracle. As described from several Psalms, The LORD "brought streams out of the rock," He "caused waters to run down like rivers" from it; "He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out; they ran in the dry places like …
