Don't Be Turned From The Right Way

James 1:16
Do not be turned from the right way, dear brothers.  (BBE)

Don't turn away from the right way.  Stay on the right course.  Being a righteous person is a very important fact of having  a good spiritual life.  Matthew 22:29 states: But Jesus said to them in answer, You are in error, not having knowledge of the Writings, or of the power of God (BBE).  Mark 12:24-27 states: Jesus said to them, Is not this the reason for your error, that you have no knowledge of the holy Writings or of the power of God?  When they come back from the dead, they do not get married, but are like the angels in heaven.  But as to the dead coming back to life; have you not seen in the book of Moses, about the burning thorn-tree, how God said to him, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?  He is not the God of the dead, but of the living: you are greatly in error (BBE).

God is not mocked. Galatians 6:7 states: Be not tricked; God is not made sport of: for whatever seed a man puts in, that will he get back as grain (BBE).  You cannot mock God.  Colossians 2:4-8 states: I say this so that you may not be turned away by any deceit of words. For though I am not present in the flesh, still I am with you in the spirit, seeing with joy your order, and your unchanging faith in Christ. As, then, you took Christ Jesus the Lord, so go on in him,  Rooted and based together in him, strong in the faith which the teaching gave you, giving praise to God at all times. Take care that no one takes you away by force, through man's wisdom and deceit, going after the beliefs of men and the theories of the world, and not after Christ (BBE).

Be careful of people who will try to distance you from God.  They will try to distract you from God, and cause you to ignore God and stop following God.  Lead your life rooted in Jesus Christ.  2nd Timothy 2:18 states: Men whose ideas are all false, who say that the coming back from the dead has even now taken place, overturning the faith of some (BBE).  James 1:19 states: You have knowledge of this, dear brothers. But let every man be quick in hearing, slow in words, slow to get angry (BBE).  James 2:5 states: Give ear, my dear brothers; are not those who are poor in the things of this world marked out by God to have faith as their wealth, and for their heritage the kingdom which he has said he will give to those who have love for him (BBE)?  Philippians 2:12 states: So then, my loved ones, as you have at all times done what I say, not only when I am present, but now much more when I am not with you, give yourselves to working out your salvation with fear in your hearts (BBE).  Philippians 4:1 states:  So my brothers, well loved and very dear to me, my joy and crown, be strong in the Lord, my loved ones (BBE).  Hebrews 13:1 states: Go on loving your brothers in the faith (BBE).

Love those who walk in faith in Christ. Through Jesus Christ we get wisdom and righteousness and salvation and we are made holy. God is the source of our salvation, victory, peace and of eternal life. Ask God to give you wisdom in every aspect of your life. 1st Corinthians 12:18 states: But now God has put every one of the parts in the body as it was pleasing to him (BBE). 1st Corinthians 12:27 states: Now you are the body of Christ, and every one of you the separate parts of it (BBE). Isaiah 45:17 states: But the Lord will make Israel free with an eternal salvation: you will not be put to shame or made low for ever and ever (BBE).

Jesus is the true vine. John 15:1-6 states: I am the true vine and my Father is the gardener. He takes away every branch in me which has no fruit, and every branch which has fruit he makes clean, so that it may have more fruit. You are clean, even now, through the teaching which I have given you. Be in me at all times as I am in you. As the branch is not able to give fruit of itself, if it is not still on the vine, so you are not able to do so if you are not in me. I am the vine, you are the branches: he who is in me at all times as I am in him, gives much fruit, because without me you are able to do nothing. If a man does not keep himself in me, he becomes dead and is cut off like a dry branch; such branches are taken up and put in the fire and burned (BBE). In those verses, Jesus was telling His disciples that He is the vine and that we are the branches with His help you prosper but without him you cannot do nothing. If Jesus doesn’t abide in you, you become a dry branch and are cut off and thrown into the fire. Romans 8:1 states: For this cause those who are in Christ Jesus will not be judged as sinners (BBE).

James 3:18 states: And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace (KJV). Psalms 105:4-5 states: Seek the Lord, and his strength: seek his face evermore. Remember his marvellous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth (KJV). Isaiah 55:6 states: Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near (KJV). Amos 5:4-8 states: For thus saith the Lord unto the house of Israel, Seek ye me, and ye shall live: But seek not Bethel, nor enter into Gilgal, and pass not to Beersheba: for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Bethel shall come to nought. Seek the Lord, and ye shall live; lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and devour it, and there be none to quench it in Bethel. Ye who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness in the earth, Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The Lord is his name (KJV).

In conclusion: James 1:16 tells us that you shouldn't turn away from the right way.  Stay on the right course.  Being a righteous person is a very important fact of having  a good spiritual life.  Thank God for every thing He has done for you in the past, present and will do in the future. If you follow right-eousness you will find life, righteousness and honor.

May Peace Be With You, My Peace I Give To You

John 14:27
May peace be with you; my peace I give to you: I give it not as the world gives. Let not your heart be troubled; let it be without fear. (BBE).

Peace go with you. Jesus Christ gives you peace, follow Him. Let us say that you are going through a tornado in your life, if Jesus is beside you, He will help you endure. He gives you peace and victory. In that verse, Jesus was telling the disciples that He can give them peace. John 16:33 states:  I have said all these things to you so that in me you may have peace. In the world you have trouble: but take heart! I have overcome the world (BBE).

John 20:19-21 states: At evening on that day, the first day of the week, when, for fear of the Jews, the doors were shut where the disciples were, Jesus came among them and said to them, May peace be with you! And when he had said this, he let them see his hands and his side. Then the disciples were glad when they saw the Lord. And Jesus said to them again, May peace be with you! As the Father sent me, even so I now send you (BBE). That is the moment when Jesus appeared to the disciples after resurrection. He walked in even though the doors were locked and greeted them and they were shocked and thrilled to see Him. Numbers 6:26 states: May the Lord's approval be resting on you and may he give you peace (BBE). May God approve of you and may He give you peace.

Psalms 29:11 states: The Lord will give strength to his people; the Lord will give his people the blessing of peace (BBE). Psalms 72:2-7 states: May he be a judge of your people in righteousness, and make true decisions for the poor. May the mountains give peace to the people, and the hills righteousness. May he be a judge of the poor among the people, may he give salvation to the children of those who are in need; by him let the violent be crushed. May his life go on as long as the sun and moon, through all generations.  May he come down like rain on the cut grass; like showers watering the earth. In his days may the upright do well, living in peace as long as there is a moon in heaven (BBE).

Psalms 85:10 states: Mercy and faith have come together; righteousness and peace have given one another a kiss (BBE). Isaiah 9:6 states: For to us a child has come, to us a son is given; and the government has been placed in his hands; and he has been named Wise Guide, Strong God, Father for ever, Prince of Peace (BBE). This is a powerful verse indeed. It prophesied the first coming of Jesus Christ hundreds of years before it happened. Isaiah 32:15-17 states:  Till the spirit comes on us from on high, and the waste land becomes a fertile field, and the fertile field is changed into a wood. Then in the waste land there will be an upright rule, and righteousness will have its place in the fertile field.  And the work of righteousness will be peace; and the effect of an upright rule will be to take away fear for ever (BBE). I love verse 17, it is such a powerful verse indeed. If you sow goodness, you will reap righteousness. Isaiah 54:17-10 states: For a short time I gave you up; but with great mercies I will take you back again.  In overflowing wrath my face was veiled from you for a minute, but I will have pity on you for ever, says the Lord who takes up your cause. For this is like the days of Noah to me: for as I took an oath that the waters of Noah would never again go over the earth, so have I taken an oath that I will not again be angry with you, or say bitter words to you.  For the mountains may be taken away, and the hills be moved out of their places, but my love will not be taken from you, or my agreement of peace broken, says the Lord, who has had mercy on you (BBE).

The hills may be moved out of their place, but His love for us will not be taken from us. Isaiah 54:13 states: And all your builders will be made wise by the Lord; and great will be the peace of your children (BBE). Zechariah 6:13 states: And he will be the builder of the Temple of the Lord; and the glory will be his, and he will take his place as ruler on the seat of power; and Joshua will be a priest at his right hand, and between them there will be a design of peace (BBE). Luke 1:79 states: To give light to those in dark places, and in the shade of death, so that our feet may be guided into the way of peace (BBE). Jesus came to Earth to give light to those in darkness. Notice how Jesus didn’t come to applaud the righteous, but to save the lost. Luke 2:14 states: Glory to God in the highest, and on the earth peace among men with whom he is well pleased (BBE). Luke 10:5 states: And whenever you go into a house, first say, Peace be to this house (BBE). That was one of the instructions that Jesus gave to his disciples before he sent them on missions to spread the good gospel news. Acts 10:36 states: The word which he sent to the children of Israel, giving the good news of peace through Jesus Christ (who is Lord of all) (BBE).

Romans 1:7 states: To all those who are in Rome, loved by God, marked out as saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ (BBE). Romans 5:1 states: For which reason, because we have righteousness through faith, let us be at peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ (BBE). 2nd Corinthians 5:18-21 states; But all things are of God, who has made us at peace with himself through Christ, and has given to us the work of making peace; that is, that God was in Christ making peace between the world and himself, not putting their sins to their account, and having given to us the preaching of this news of peace. So we are the representatives of Christ, as if God was making a request to you through us: we make our request to you, in the name of Christ, be at peace with God. For him who had no knowledge of sin God made to be sin for us; so that we might become the righteousness of God in him (BBE). God made every thing. Jesus didn’t sin, but He died for us. Galatians 5:22 states: But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, a quiet mind, kind acts, well-doing, faith (BBE).

Jesus gives you peace. Ephesians 2:14-17 states: For he is our peace, who has made the two into one, and by whom the middle wall of division has been broken down,  having in his flesh put an end to that which made the division between us, even the law with its rules and orders, so that he might make in himself, of the two, one new man, so making peace; and that the two might come into agreement with God in one body through the cross, so putting an end to that division. And he came preaching peace to you who were far off, and to those who were near (BBE). Jesus came and preached peace. Colossians 3:15 states: And let the peace of Christ be ruling in your hearts, as it was the purpose of God for you to be one body; and give praise to God at all times (BBE).

Jesus is of peace. 2nd Thessalonians 3:16 states: Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. May the Lord be with you all (BBE). Jesus gives you peace all the time, follow Him. Hebrews 13:20 states: Now may the God of peace, who made that great keeper of his flock, even our Lord Jesus, come back from the dead through the blood of the eternal agreement (BBE). Psalms 11:1 states: In the Lord put I my faith; how will you say to my soul, Go in flight like a bird to the mountain (BBE)? Psalms 27:1 states: The Lord is my light and my salvation; who is then a cause of fear to me? the Lord is the strength of my life; who is a danger to me (BBE)?

God is my light and salvation, Amen. Psalms 56:3-11 states: In the time of my fear, I will have faith in you. In God will I give praise to his word; in God have I put my hope; I will have no fear of what flesh may do to me.  Every day they make wrong use of my words; all their thoughts are against me for evil.  They come together, they are waiting in secret places, they take note of my steps, they are waiting for my soul. By evil-doing they will not get free from punishment. In wrath, O God, let the peoples be made low. You have seen my wanderings; put the drops from my eyes into your bottle; are they not in your record? When I send up my cry to you, my haters will be turned back; I am certain of this, for God is with me. In God will I give praise to his word; in the Lord will I give praise to his word. In God have I put my hope, I will have no fear of what man may do to me (BBE).

Praise God and put hope in Him. Psalms 91:5 states: You will have no fear of the evil things of the night, or of the arrow in flight by day (BBE). Psalms 112:7 states: He will have no fear of evil news; his heart is fixed, for his hope is in the Lord (BBE). Proverbs 3:25 states: Have no fear of sudden danger, or of the storm which will come on evil-doers (BBE). Isaiah 12:2 states: See, God is my salvation; I will have faith in the Lord, without fear: for the Lord Jah is my strength and song; and he has become my salvation (BBE).

God gives you strength. Isaiah 41:10-14 states: Have no fear, for I am with you; do not be looking about in trouble, for I am your God; I will give you strength, yes, I will be your helper; yes, my true right hand will be your support. Truly, all those who are angry with you will be made low and put to shame: those desiring to do you wrong will come to nothing and never again be seen. You will make search for your haters but they will not be there; those who make war against you will be as nothing and will come to destruction. For I, the Lord your God, have taken your right hand in mine, saying to you, Have no fear; I will be your helper. Have no fear, you worm Jacob, and you men of Israel; I will be your helper, says the Lord, even he who takes up your cause, the Holy One of Israel (BBE).

God tells you not to be fearful because He is your helper. Jeremiah 1:8 states: Have no fear because of them: for I am with you, to keep you safe, says the Lord (BBE). In this verse, God is telling Jeremiah that He will keep him safe when he goes and talks to the people and throughout his life. Reassuring him that He is with him and will keep him safe. Matthew 10:26 states: Have, then, no fear of them: because nothing is covered which will not come to light, or secret which will not be made clear (BBE). Acts 8:9 states: And the Lord said to Paul in the night, in a vision, Have no fear and go on preaching (BBE). 1st Timothy 1:7 states: For God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of self-control (BBE). That is a great verse indeed. God didn't give us a spirit of fear, but he gave us power, love, and self-control. He wants you to fear Him but other things you shouldn't be too worked out about. Revelation 2:10 states: Have no fear of the things which you will have to undergo: see, the Evil One will send some of you into prison, so that you may be put to the test; and you will have great trouble for ten days. Be true till death, and I will give you the crown of life (BBE).

Revelation 21:8 states: But those who are full of fear and without faith, the unclean and takers of life, those who do the sins of the flesh, and those who make use of evil powers or who give worship to images, and all those who are false, will have their part in the sea of ever-burning fire which is the second death (BBE). That verse describes the second death, being tossed into the lake of fire.

In conclusion, in John 14:27, Jesus is talking to his disciples some time before he was arrested. Jesus Christ gives you peace, follow Him. Let us say that you are going through a tornado in your life, if Jesus is beside you, He will help you endure. He gives you peace and victory. In that verse, Jesus was telling the disciples that He can give them peace. Glory to God! Praise the Lord! Give thanks, praise and glory to God always. Thank Him for every thing He has done for you in the past, present and will do in the future. If you follow righteousness you will find life, righteousness and honor.

Holy Is His Name And Greatly To Be Feard

He has sent salvation to his people; he has given his word for ever: holy is his name and greatly to be feared. Psalms 111:9 (BBE)

God has sent salvation to His people. He has given his word. Holy is His name and He shall be feared. You must fear God. Psalms 130:7-8 states: O Israel, have hope in the Lord; for with the Lord is mercy and full salvation. And he will make Israel free from all his sins (BBE). Exodus 15:13 states: In your mercy you went before the people whom you have made yours; guiding them in your strength to your holy place (BBE). Deuteronomy 15:15 states: And keep in mind that you yourself were a servant in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God made you free: so I give you this order today (BBE).

Isaiah 44:6 states: The Lord, the King of Israel, even the Lord of armies who has taken up his cause, says, I am the first and the last, and there is no God but me (BBE). Isaiah 63:9 states: It was no sent one or angel, but he himself who was their saviour: in his love and in his pity he took up their cause, and he took them in his arms, caring for them all through the years (BBE). Matthew 1:21 states: And she will give birth to a son; and you will give him the name Jesus; for he will give his people salvation from their sins (BBE). An angel said that to Joseph in his dream. Luke 1:68 states: Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, for he has come to his people and made them free (BBE).

Jesus frees you from captivity to the world. Ephesians 1:7 states: In whom we have salvation through his blood, the forgiveness of our sins, through the wealth of his grace (BBE). Through the blood of Jesus we have salvation and forgiveness of our sins by His grace. Ephesians 1:14 states: In whom we have salvation through his blood, the forgiveness of our sins, through the wealth of his grace (BBE). Titus 2:14 states: Who gave himself for us, so that he might make us free from all wrongdoing, and make for himself a people clean in heart and on fire with good works (BBE).

Jesus frees us from all sins, He cleans up your heart. He helps you get rid of your evil side. Hebrews 9:12 states: And has gone once and for ever into the holy place, having got eternal salvation, not through the blood of goats and young oxen, but through his blood (BBE). 1st Peter 1:18-20 states: Being conscious that you have been made free from that foolish way of life which was your heritage from your fathers, not through a payment of things like silver or gold which come to destruction, But through holy blood, like that of a clean and unmarked lamb, even the blood of Christ: Who was marked out by God before the making of the world, but was caused to be seen in these last times for you (BBE).

We are rescued from a horrible way of life by the blood of Christ. Revelation 5:9 states: And their voices are sounding in a new song, saying, It is right for you to take the book and to make it open: for you were put to death and have made an offering to God of your blood for men of every tribe, and language, and people, and nation (BBE). Psalms 111:5 states: He has given food to his worshippers; he will keep his agreement in mind for ever (BBE). 2nd Samuel 23:5 states: For is not my house so with God? For he has made with me an eternal agreement, ordered in all things and certain: as for all my salvation and all my desire, will he not give it increase (BBE)? God has made an eternal agreement.

1st Chronicles 16:15 states: He has kept his agreement in mind for ever, the word which he gave for a thousand generations (BBE). God had given us a covenant many generations ago, He doesn't forget that. Isaiah 55:3 states: Give ear, and come to me, take note with care, so that your souls may have life: and I will make an eternal agreement with you, even the certain mercies of David (BBE). Jeremiah 33:20-21 states: The Lord has said: If it is possible for my agreement of the day and the night to be broken, so that day and night no longer come at their fixed times, then my agreement with my servant David may be broken, so that he no longer has a son to take his place on the seat of the kingdom; and my agreement with the Levites, the priests, my servants (BBE).

Galatians 3:15-17 states: Brothers, as men would say, even a man's agreement, when it has been made certain, may not be put on one side, or have additions made to it. Now to Abraham were the undertakings given, and to his seed. He says not, And to seeds, as of a great number; but as of one, he says, And to your seed, which is Christ. Now this I say: The law, which came four hundred and thirty years after, does not put an end to the agreement made before by God, so as to make the undertaking without effect (BBE). Hebrews 13:20 states: Now may the God of peace, who made that great keeper of his flock, even our Lord Jesus, come back from the dead through the blood of the eternal agreement (BBE).

Psalms 89:7 states: God is greatly to be feared among the saints, and to be honoured over all those who are about him (BBE). Psalms 99:3-5 states: Let them give praise to your name, for it is great and to be feared; holy is he. The king's power is used for righteousness; you give true decisions, judging rightly in the land of Jacob. Give high honour to the Lord our God, worshipping at his feet; holy is he (BBE). God is holy, you must worship Him and honor Him always and also essentially fear Him. Deuteronomy 28:58 states: If you will not take care to do all the words of this law, recorded in this book, honouring that name of glory and of fear, THE LORD YOUR GOD (BBE).

Isaiah 6:3 states: And one said in a loud voice to another, Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of armies: all the earth is full of his glory (BBE). A vision that Isaiah had of heaven. Malachi 1:11 states: For, from the coming up of the sun till its going down, my name is great among the Gentiles; and in every place the smell of burning flesh is offered to my name, and a clean offering: for my name is great among the Gentiles, says the Lord of armies (BBE).

Malachi 2:2 states: If you will not give ear and take it to heart, to give glory to my name, says the Lord of armies, then I will send the curse on you and will put a curse on your blessing: truly, even now I have put a curse on it, because you do not take it to heart (BBE). Follow the commandments of the Lord, if you don't--punishment will come upon you. Revelation 4:8 states: And the four beasts, having every one of them six wings, are full of eyes round about and inside: and without resting day and night, they say, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God, Ruler of all, who was and is and is to come (BBE). The verse describes a vision that John the Apostle had of heaven.

Proverbs 11:2-3 states: And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord; And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the Lord: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears (KJV). Psalms 115:11 states: Ye that fear the Lord, trust in the Lord: he is their help and their shield. (KJV) Fear God and trust in Him without doubt. God is your help and shield. He can protect you from whatever danger comes your way. Psalms 33:18 states: Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy (KJV). Psalms 118:4 states: Let them now that fear the Lord say, that his mercy endureth for ever (KJV). Psalms 147:11 states: The Lord taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy (KJV). Proverbs 14:26 states: In the fear of the Lord is strong confidence: and his children shall have a place of refuge (KJV). Proverbs 30:5-6 states: Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar (KJV).

In conclusion, God has sent salvation to His people. He has given his word. Holy is His name and He shall be feared. You must fear God. Glory to God! Praise the Lord! Give thanks, praise and glory to God always. Thank Him for every thing He has done for you in the past, present and will do in the future. If you follow righteousness you will find life, righteousness and honor.

Psalms 91:16

With long life will he be rewarded; and I will let him see my salvation. (BBE)

God will reward you with long life if you obey and have complete faith in Him. You will be on the road to salvation. Psalms 21:4-8 states: He made request to you for life, and you gave it to him, long life for ever and ever. His glory is great in your salvation: honour and authority have you put on him. For you have made him a blessing for ever: you have given him joy in the light of your face. For the king has faith in the Lord, and through the mercy of the Most High he will not be moved. Your hand will make a search for all your haters; your right hand will be hard on all those who are against you (BBE). God will punish those who are against Him.

Genesis 25:8-9 states: And Abraham came to his death, an old man, full of years; and he was put to rest with his people. And Isaac and Ishmael, his sons, put him to rest in the hollow rock of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron, the son of Zohar the Hittite, near Mamre (BBE). Job 5:26-27 states: You will come to your last resting-place in full strength, as the grain is taken up to the crushing-floor in its time. See, we have made search with care, and it is so; it has come to our ears; see that you take note of it for yourself (BBE). Proverbs 3:2 states: For they will give you increase of days, years of life, and peace (BBE).

Proverbs 3:16 states; Long life is in her right hand, and in her left are wealth and honour (BBE). Proverbs 22:4 states: The reward of a gentle spirit and the fear of the Lord is wealth and honour and life (BBE). Isaiah 65:20-22 states: No longer will there be there a child whose days are cut short, or an old man whose days have not come to their full measure: for the young man at his death will be a hundred years old, and he whose life is shorter than a hundred years will seem as one cursed. And they will be building houses and living in them; planting vine-gardens and getting the fruit of them. They will no longer be building for the use of others, or planting for others to have the fruit: for the days of my people will be like the days of a tree, and my loved ones will have joy in full measure in the work of their hands (BBE).

Psalms 16:11 states; You will make clear to me the way of life; where you are joy is complete; in your right hand there are pleasures for ever and ever (BBE). Psalms 50:23 states: Whoever makes an offering of praise gives glory to me; and to him who is upright in his ways I will make clear the salvation of God (BBE). Isaiah 45:17 states: But the Lord will make Israel free with an eternal salvation: you will not be put to shame or made low for ever and ever (BBE). Proverbs 15:33 states: Wisdom’s instruction is to fear the LORD, and humility comes before honor (NIV).

It is better to get wisdom than gold. Proverbs 16:16 states: How much better to get wisdom than gold, to get insight rather than silver! Luke 2:30 states: For my eyes have seen your salvation (BBE). Luke 3:6 states: And all flesh will see the salvation of God (BBE). Proverbs 17:24 states: A discerning person keeps wisdom in view, but a fool’s eyes wander to the ends of the earth (NIV). Proverbs 19:11 states: A person’s wisdom yields patience; it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense (NIV). Exodus 15:2 states: The LORD is my strength and my defense ; he has become my salvation. He is my God, and I will praise him, my father’s God, and I will exalt him (NIV).

Psalms 35:9 states: Then my soul will rejoice in the LORD and delight in his salvation (NIV). Psalms 62:6 states: Truly he is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will not be shaken (NIV). God is your rock, He is your salvation, He is your defender.

In conclusion, God will reward you with long life if you obey and have complete faith in Him. You will be on the road to salvation. If you follow righteousness you will find life, righteousness and honor. Glorify God, thank him for all the things he has done for you and will do in the future.
