Christ is the only One, the God-man, who satisfies God’s desire and fulfills His good pleasure. God finds all His delight in Him, and He wants His Christ to be our everything. In Psalms 15 we see that David asked a question, “Who can dwell with God on His holy mountain?” – but the answer […]
Christ as the God-man satisfies God’s desire and fulfills His good pleasure, as seen in Psa. 16:1-7
Who may sojourn in God’s tent? Who may dwell with God on His holy mountain? Only Christ is qualified!
Psa. 15:1 says, O Jehovah, who may sojourn in Your tent? Who may dwell on Your holy mountain? These questions can be rephrased as, What kind of man may dwell with God for His heart’s desire and good pleasure? David’s answer to this question in Psalms 15 is a good man, not an evil man, […]

what is mortal man, that the Lord remembers him, and the son of man, that He visits him?
In Psalms 8 David looked at the heavens and saw the work of God’s fingers – even in the dark night of this world, if you look at the heavens you see the moon and the stars! God created and ordained the moon and the stars to shine even in the darkness – when we […]
out of the mouths of babes and sucklings You have established praise – to stop Your enemy!
Praise the Lord! Praaaaaiseee the Loooooord! This morning I was so encouraged to come to the Lord again and ask Him, Lord, make me a babe and a suckling, one who is weak and depending on Your, yet who praises You to stop and defeat Your enemy! After seeing that God’s desire is to recover […]
