That Which Can’t Be Shaken

 

All that can be shaken
will be shaken

until only the unmovable
remains

so let us have grace
as we serve our God

with reverence for
His name.

**********

I am receiving a Kingdom that can’t be shaken, for You are with me.

**********

“Now this, ‘Yet once more’, indicates the removal of those things that are being shaken, as of things that are made, that the things which cannot be shaken may remain.”

“Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear.”

“For our God is a consuming fire.”

Sharing His Holiness

 

God disciplines us
for our good

so we can share
in His holiness

and while at the time
it seems sad

yet it yields the fruit
of righteousness.

**********

I can share in Your holiness through discipline , for You are with me.

**********

“For our earthly fathers disciplined us for only a short time as seemed best to them; but He disciplines us for our good, so that we may share His holiness.”

“For the time being no discipline brings joy, but seems sad and painful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness [right standing with God and a lifestyle and attitude that seeks conformity to God’s will and purpose].”
