Isaiah 50:2

Was my arm too short to ransom you? Do I lack the strength to rescue you?

Psalm 127:2 (last part)

– for he grants sleep to those he loves. Or:-for while they sleep he provides for those he loves. (NIV)

I think I can almost say I have actually experienced that myself. I do not want to go here into details. Just believe me!

Psalm 94:12,13

BLESSED IS THE MAN YOU DISCIPLINE, O LORD,

THE MAN YOU TEACH FROM YOUR LAW;

YOU GRANT HIM RELIEF FROM DAYS OF TROUBLE,

TILL A PIT IS DUG FOR THE WICKED.

Psalm 94:19  When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought joy to my soul.

Psalm 68:19

Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burden. (NIV)

How can we experience that in daily living?

Isaiah 30:15

This is what the Sovereign Lord, the Holy One of Israel says:”In repentance and rest is your salvation, IN QUIETNESS and trust IS YOUR STRENGTH, but you would have none of it.”

Some years ago I repeated this verse quite often in my mind and it helped me to be quiet. Sometimes to be quiet is the only way out. Have you ever been in a situation like that?

I have just now. That’s why I wrote it down!

During my time in Thailand I listened quite a bit to the Far East Broadcasting Company. (FEBC) One progamme was called “Cowboy Joe.” It was mainly a music programme and during the broadcast Cowboy Joe pulled a golden nugget out of his bag, namely a Bible verse. All that came to my mind today when I found a REAL Golden Nugget during my quiet time this morning. Here it is: First Kings 8:10,11.

“AND THE PRIESTS COULD NOT PERFORM THEIR SERVICE , BECAUSE OF THE CLOUD, FOR THE GLORY OF THE LORD FILLED THE TEMPLE.”

Are we longing for the GLORY OF THE LORD?

I THINK THERE WILL BE MORE GOLDEN  NUGGETS IN FUTURE!
