Early and Earnestly

Read:  Psalm 63 / Proverbs 8 / Jeremiah 7 /Romans 13

 

Psalm 63:1 ~ O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is.

Proverbs 8:35 ~ Whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favor of the LORD.

Jeremiah 7:23 ~ Obey my voice… and walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well unto you.

Romans 13:12,14 ~ The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light… But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.

 

Throughout this desert land we see 

There is no water for our thirst.

So, early and more earnestly,

We seek the Lord who sought us first. 

 

The early dawn brings forth the day;

There is no time for indecision!

The Lord has called us to obey

And trust in Him for His provision.
