Greetings 👋
These verses are soothing to the hearts of believers.
“Blessed are those whose way is blameless, who walk in the law of the Lord.
Blessed are those who keep His testimonies, and who seek Him with all their heart.
They also do no wrong; they walk in His ways.
You have commanded us to keep Your precepts diligently.
Oh, that my ways were established to keep Your statutes!
Then I shall not be ashamed, when I have my focus on all Your commandments.
I will praise You with an upright heart, when I have learned Your righteous judgments.
I will keep Your statutes; do not completely abandon me.” Psalm 119: 1-8 (MEV).

God knows who we REALLY are. We are NAKED before him. It’s a sobering realization, isn’t it!
Here’s my meditation for today continuing in 1 John 4.
“. . . He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. They are of the world, and therefore they speak from the world, and the world listens to them. We are of God, and whoever knows God listens to us. Whoever is not of God does not listen to us. This is how we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.”
1 John 4: 4-6 (MEV).

I’m meditating on 1 John 4. We are admonished to test the spirits coming from our leaders and others with whom we interact.
“Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world.
You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.” 1 John 4: 1-4 (NIV).
