THE SECRET OF THE LORD

The secret of the LORD is with those who fear Him, and He will show them His covenant.

Psalm 25:14

There are secrets of the kingdom of God; keys that will cause you to flourish when you apply them. However, this time David shows us that there is the main secret, and he calls it the secret of the LORD. He uses a definite article “the secret” not “a secret,” furthermore, “the secret” is in the singular form not plural.

What is the secret of the LORD? He let us know in the verse that follows.

My eyes are ever toward the LORD, for He shall pluck my feet out of the net.

Psalm 25:15

David says here that he will fix his eyes or focus on God and God will pluck his feet out of the net that the enemy has laid out for him. In other words, David is saying here that he will seek God and God will deliver him out of every trouble. The secret of the Lord is seeking God, spending time with Him and focusing on Him. The secret of the Lord is intimacy with God.

Some people want the principles or the keys of the kingdom but neglect the secret of the Lord which is spending time with Him. God is a God of relationships. You are called into fellowship with the Lord.

God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

1 Corinthians 1:9

Seeking God and spending time with Him is the most important thing. That is the secret of the Lord and the secret of great men of God, like Abraham, Moses and David. God’s principles remain the same. The secret of great men of God which is intimacy with God, still works even today.

But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

Matthew 6:33

Thought of the day: The secret of the Lord is intimacy with God.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for revealing Your secret to me. Thank You that the more I spend time with You, the more You deliver me out of every trouble, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

STRENGTHEN YOURSELF IN THE LORD

Now David was greatly distressed, for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of the people was grieved, every man for his sons and his daughters. But David strengthened himself in the LORD his God. 1 Samuel 30:6 Things could be going wrong all around you, challenges everywhere, and negative thoughts attacking your mind even to a point of depression. Instead of feeling sorry for yourself and wallowing up in depression, stand up and strengthen yourself in the Lord. We live in the world that has challenges, Jesus said that in the world you will have tribulations, but cheer up because Jesus has overcome the world. Strengthen yourself in the Lord and be strong in the Lord and the power of His might. Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Ephesians 6:10 When you are weak you cannot overcome challenges you face in life. When you are weak you cannot have the victory and take possession your inheritance. You have to be strong. Strong

WAGE WAR WITH PROPHECY

This charge I commit to you, son Timothy, according to the prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you may wage the good warfare. 1 Timothy 1:18 If you have a prophecy spoken over your life it is time for warfare. It is time to wage war with your prophecy. Take the prophecy spoken over you and put it in your mouth. Speak the same prophecy over your life. Agree with God. Can two walk together, unless they are agreed? Amos 3:3 Speak the same things with God. That is faith, faith speaks the same things with God and we overcome by our faith. Faith will put you over and it will make you an overcomer. Use your faith to wage war. And whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that overcomes the world – our faith. 1 John 5:4 Put up a good fight and fight the good fight of faith. You have to fight in order to win. Wage war with prophecy. If there is no prophecy spoken over you, there is nothing to it. Use the Word and speak the Word over

GOD REWARDS RIGHTEOUS LIVING

The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to cleanness of my hands He has recompensed me. 2 Samuel 22:21 Righteousness according to the Old Testament is righteous living. However, in the New Testament we have received the righteousness which is by faith in Jesus Christ. When David in the Old Testament said that the LORD rewarded him according to his righteousness, he is essentially saying that the LORD rewarded him for his righteous living. Say to the righteous that it shall be well with them, for they shall eat the fruit of their doings. Isaiah 3:10 The above Scripture would then mean: “Say to those who live righteously that it shall be well with them, for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.” God rewards righteous living. It doesn’t matter where you find yourself right now, if you would continue living righteously, living according to God’s Word sooner than later your life would begin to change. You can turn things around as you live righteously.
