Beauty and Behavior

Read:  Psalm 45 / Proverbs 14 / 2 Kings 5 / Acts 16

 

Psalm 45:10,11 Hearken, O daughter… forget also thine own people, and thy father's house; so shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he is thy Lord; and worship thou him. 

Proverbs 14:35 The king's favor is toward a wise servant: but his wrath is against him that causeth shame.

2 Kings 5:26 Went not mine heart with thee, when the man turned again from his chariot to meet thee? Is it a time to receive money, and to receive garments?

Acts 16:30,31 Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved.

 

When we are worshiping our Savior,

Distractions no more cloud our eyes. 

His beauty changes our behavior, 

And His instruction makes us wise.

 

Is this a time for cherishing

The carnal things we once had craved?

Awake, for souls are perishing

Who by the Gospel may be saved!
