For Jehovah is greatly to be praised



 “2 I poured out my prayer before him; I declared my trouble before him. 3 when my spirit fainted within me, then you knew my path. in the way [in] which I walked they have secretly laid a snare for me.” (Psalms 142:2-3 MKJV)
“[A psalm of David.] O Jehovah, I cry to you; make haste to me, give ear to my voice when I cry to you.” (Psalms 141:1 MKJV)

 “but my eyes [are] on you, O lord Jehovah; in you I take refuge, do not leave my soul naked.” (Psalms 141:8 MKJV)

 “15  the idols of the nations [are] silver and gold, the work of men’s hands. 16 they [have] mouths, but they do not speak; they [have] eyes, but they do not see; 17 they [have] ears, but they do not hear, nor is there breath in their mouths.” (Psalms 135:15-17 MKJV)

“[A song of degrees.] behold, bless Jehovah, all servants of Jehovah, who stand by night in the house of Jehovah. lift up your hands [in] the sanctuary, and bless Jehovah. [may] Jehovah, who made the heavens and earth, bless you out of Zion.” (Ps 134:1-3 MKJV)

“for Jehovah your god [is] god of gods, and lord of lords, a great god, the mighty, and a terrible god, who does not respect persons nor take a bribe.” (Deuteronomy 10:17 MKJV)

“praise Jehovah! praise the name of Jehovah; praise him, servants of Jehovah. [those] who stand in the house of Jehovah, in the courts of the house of our god, praise Jehovah; for Jehovah [is] good; sing praises to his name, for [it is] full of delight. for Jehovah has chosen Jacob to himself, [and] Israel for his peculiar treasure. for I know that Jehovah [is] great, and our LORD [is] above all gods. every thing Jehovah pleased, he did in the heavens and in earth, and in the seas and all deep places. he causes the vapors to rise from the end of the earth; he makes lightnings for the rain; he brings wind out of his storehouses.” (Ps 135:1-7 MKJV)

“for Jehovah [is] great, and greatly to be praised; he [is] to be feared above all gods.” (Psalms 96:4 MKJV)

“for Jehovah [is] a great god, and a great king above all gods.” (Psalms 95:3 MKJV)

 “I will praise you; for I am fearfully [and] wonderfully made; your works [are] marvelous and my soul knows [it] very well.” (Psalms 139:14 MKJV)

“let my prayer be set forth before you [as] incense, [and] the lifting up of my hands [as] the evening sacrifice.” (Psalms 141:2 MKJV)

“1  [A psalm of David.] I will praise you with my whole heart; before the gods I will sing praise to you. 2 I will worship toward your holy temple, and praise your name for your loving-kindness and for your truth’s sake; for you have magnified your word above all your name.” (Psalms 138:1-2 MKJV)

“now thanks [be] to god, who always causes us to triumph in christ, and he revealing through us the odor of the knowledge of him in every place. for we are to god a sweet savor of christ, in those being saved, and in those being lost; to the one [we are] the savor of death to death, and to the other we are the savor of life to life. and who is sufficient for these things?” (2Co 2:14-16 MKJV)

“blessed [is] Jehovah; he daily bears burdens for us, the god of our salvation. Selah.” (Psalms 68:19 MKJV)

Live ...


Live simply,
Love generously,
Care deeply,
Speak kindly.

And leave the rest to God.

Think before you speak


“Speaking is silver, but silence is gold.”
- General saying

"When I want to speak let me think first. Is it true?
Is it kind? Is it necessary? If not let it be unsaid."
- Maltbie D. Babcock

”He who permits himself to tell a lie once,
finds it much easier to do it a second and third time,
till at length it becomes habitual; he tells lies without attending to it,
and truths without the world's believing him.
  This falsehood of the tongue leads”
-- Thomas Jefferson

"Finally, whatever is true, whatever is noble,
whatever is right, whatever is pure,
whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable -
if anything is excellent or praiseworthy -
think about such things."
Philippians 4:8

God, let my eyes always be focused on the right things.
Let me
be of good behaviour among the Gentiles
and always speak the truth, in a peaceful and loving manner.

Frank risks taking


"It has been my philosophy of life that
difficulties vanish when faced boldly."
- Isaac Asimov

Christianity is not a theory or speculation, but a life;
not a philosophy of life, but a living presence.
- Samuel Taylor Coleridge

The task ahead of us is never as great as the power behind us.
- Author Unknown

Better to love God and die unknown than to love the world and be a hero;
better to be content with poverty than to die a slave to wealth;
better to have taken some risks and lost
than to have done nothing and succeeded at it.
- Erwin W. Lutzer

"Praying always with all prayer and supplication ...
that utterance may be given to me,
that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel,
for which I am an ambassador in chains;
that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak."
Ephesians 6:18-20

Lord God, give me boldness to speak
and let me step over the problems.
Give that I always shall do well the tasks given to me,
that I ask in Jesus name, amen.

He who kneels before God can stand before anyone!



"He who kneels before God
can stand before anyone!"
- Unknown

"A lot of kneeling will keep you
in good standing with God."
- Unknown

"Devote yourselves to prayer,
keeping alert in it with an attitude of thanksgiving;"
Colossians 4:2

"God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you."
So we say with confidence,
"The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid.
What can man do to me?""
Hebrews 13:5-6
"And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more
in knowledge and depth of insight,
so that you may be able to discern what is best
and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ,
filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ
- to the glory and praise of God."
Philippians 1:9-11
God,  learn me to be humbly so that I learn to kneel down for you.
Give that I can find the right words to you to speak to you dignified.
And let not my prayers remain unanswered,
but fulfil me with your deepest wishes and desires.
Give me wisdom and spiritual understanding so that I fully understand your wishes.
And let me abundantly increase in love for each other and for all,
as my love goes out to you.
