Tabernacle With us “LORD”
Desire, it is a dainty word! It were
much that He should satisfy the need,
the want; but He goeth far beyond
that. Pity is moved to meet our need;
duty may sometimes look after our
wants; but to satisfy the desire implies a tender watchfulness, a sweet
and gracious knowledge of us, an
eagerness of blessing.
God is never satisfied until He
has satisfied our desires.
REMEMBER THIS AND LIVE
I WOULD RATHER LIVE
MY LIFE AS IF THERE IS A
GOD, AND DIE TO FIND
OUT THERE ISN’T; THAN

THERE ISN’T, AND DIE TO
FIND OUT THERE IS………

!!Eat What’s Good For You!!
I’m of a mind that when in study
of God’s Word; one should be
careful, in that the time spent in
feeding on the Word should be
filling & satisfying. Let nothing
get in the way of you getting
your fill!!

!When It Seems Like The Taste Is Gone!
Check yourself to see if you have a
“Holy Place” relationship or just
somewhere out “In the Courtyard.” If
the “Word” is not doing it for you;
then take a look at you!! Make that
effort to get to the “Holy Place”….
This “Book” will keep you from sin, but
sin will keep you from this “Book”

WHAT IT SAYS
This is my Bible, I am who my Bible say I am,
I can do what my Bible say I can do. I have
what my Bible say I have, my Bible
teaches my spirit, my spirit teaches my
mind, and my mind teaches my body. My
Bible is full of promises and commandments, my Bible has good and bad examples. How do I know my Bible is true? By
comparing scripture with scripture and
spiritual things with spiritual things. I
study my Bible to show myself approved,
rightly dividing the Word of God.
