Old Testament Verses

God’s Path of Life

Psalm 16:11 and a Path Through Fontenelle Forest, Bellevue, Nebraska.

“You will make known to me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; In Your right hand there are pleasures forever.” Psalm 16:11

Following the Path of Life

I often like to photograph down trails. I don’t know why, but I think it reminds me that God is leading me somewhere. He leads all those who follow Him and diligently seek Him. He leads us to a better place on “the path of life.”

The better place He leads us to is not in this world. In this world we will have pain, suffering and hard times, but our final destination is not on this earth. God’s final destination for us is in paradise with Him and that is definitely a better place. There, we will find peace, contentment, glory and more importantly God’s complete presence with “fullness of joy” and “pleasures forever.”

Goodness and Mercy

Psalm 23:6 and Trees along the Pacific Ocean after Sunset, Olympic National Park, Washington State.Silhouetted trees by a sunset on the Pacific Ocean, Olympic National Park, Washington State and Psalm 23:6, goodness and mercy will follow me

“Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.” Psalm 23:6

His Goodness and Mercy

To look upon a sunset is to look upon the goodness of God. Sunsets make for a perfect time to reflect on the good things God gives to us throughout the day; things like His mercy, grace and blessings.

When we live godly lives His goodness and mercy shall follow us all the days of our lives. Amen and Praise God.

God’s Mercy Flows to Us

Psalm 25:6-7 and a Rock Island in the Saint Louis River, Jay Cooke State Park, Minnesota.Water flows around a rock island in the Saint Louis River, Jay Cooke State Park, Minnesota and Psalm 25:6-7 Bible Verse God's mercy flows over us

“Remember, O LORD, Your compassion and Your lovingkindnesses, for they have been from of old. Do not remember the sins of my youth or my transgressions; According to Your lovingkindness remember me, for Your goodness’ sake, O LORD.” Psalm 25:6-7

His Mercy Flows and Surround Us

Without God’s compassion and lovingkindness where do I stand? Due to my sin I need His mercy to surround me like water surrounds an island.

May God’s mercy and grace flow over us like a swift flowing river. Without them we have no hope for redemption. In Jesus alone do we find grace and compassion for all that we have done. With our repentance, His mercy flows over us. 

Be encouraged by God’s protection, guidance and forgiveness as you read each verse of Psalm 25.

My Rock of Stability

Find Stability in God

When we look upon mountains we see qualities like power, majesty and stability. These regal qualities point us to the transcendent. God posses everlasting power, majesty and stability. He alone stands as an everlasting rock—our everlasting rock. We can stand firm in Him.

Wisdom’s Pleasant Ways

Proverbs 3:16-18 and a Path in a Meadow, Hitchcock Nature Center, Iowa.

“Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor.  Her ways are pleasant ways and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her, and happy are all who hold her fast.” Proverbs 3:16-18

Pleasant Ways and Paths to Peace

This Bible passage speaks of godly wisdom. Wisdom’s ways are pleasant and lead us to places of peace and contentment. Proverbs says, “All her paths are peace.” Not some of her paths, but all her paths. The Bible is clear, the way to discover God’s best for us is to live by His wisdom. The wisdom of the world leads to destruction. The wisdom of God leads to peace.
