Thou shalt make a plate of pure gold, and grave upon it,
like the engravings of a signet, HOLINESS TO THE LORD.
Exodus 28:36
|
|
And when Jehoshaphat had consulted with the
people, he appointed singers unto the Lord, and
that should praise the beauty of holiness, as they
went out before the army, and to say, Praise the
Lord; for his mercy endureth for ever. For in their
set office they sanctified themselves in holiness.

My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips. Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David. His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me. It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. Selah.God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth. Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver; Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe: Philistia, triumph thou because of me. Thy testimonies are very sure: holiness becometh thine house, O Lord, for ever. O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth. Rejoice in the Lord, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth. And her merchandise and her hire shall be holiness to the Lord: it shall not be treasured nor laid up; for her merchandise shall be for them that dwell before the Lord, to eat sufficiently, and for durable clothing. And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness. They that have gathered it shall eat it, and praise the Lord; and they that have brought it together shall drink it in the courts of my holiness.Israel was holiness unto the Lord, and the firstfruits of his increase: all that devour him shall offend; evil shall come upon them, saith the Lord.
Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; As yet they shall use this speech in the land of Judah and in the cities thereof, when I shall bring again their captivity; The Lord bless thee, O habitation of justice, and mountain of holiness. And there shall dwell in Judah itself, and in all the cities thereof together, husbandmen, and they that go forth with flocks. For I have satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul.Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness; and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.
They that trust in the Lord shall be
as mount Zion, which cannot be
removed, but abideth for ever.
As the mountains are round
about Jerusalem, so the Lord
is round about his people from
henceforth even for ever.
And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways; To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins, Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited us, To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.(Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,) Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead: By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name: Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ. But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. And put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.
~ God is Calling ~
God is calling out His warriors;
Calling, now, for girls and boys
Who will carry forth the banner:
Who can stand the battle noise ...
And He wants the noble ~ gentle,
Wants the purest and the brave.
So, set your goals up higher.
You can ride the wildest wave!
Though you walk through din and rubbish,
You can be above reproach ~
If you keep your council constant,
If you listen to your Coach!
He needs those to call "Prince Valiant",
Needs a "Joan of Arc" or two.
Have you thought, my little children,
That He might be calling you?
You may see the vulgar gesture.
But, you do not do the same.
You may hear the slimy story.
But, it shall not bear your name.
For, you keep your bridle anchored
On your tongue and rule your life,
And you’ll never spit the words out
That can only bring out strife.
God is calling, Oh, so softly.
So, don’t turn the music loud.
When He speaks, you’ll hear His whisper;
Even if you’re in a crowd.
He’s the Master of all Masters;
Full of mercy, love and grace.
When you’ve waged the war of ages,
You shall see Him face to face!
