"Then Ahimaaz ran by the way of the plain, and overran Cushi."

"Then Ahimaaz ran by the way of the plain, and overran Cushi."

2 Samuel 18:23

Running is not everything, there is much in the way which we select: 

a swift foot over hill and down dale will not keep pace with a slower traveller upon level ground. 

How is it with my spiritual journey, 

am I labouring up the hill of my own works and down into the ravines of my own humiliations and resolutions, 

or do I run by the plain way of "Believe and live"?

 How blessed is it to wait upon the Lord by faith! 

The soul runs without weariness, and walks without fainting, 

in the way of believing.

 Christ Jesus is the way of life, and he is a plain way, a pleasant way, a way suitable for the tottering feet and feeble knees of trembling sinners:

 am I found in this way, or am I hunting after another track such as priestcraft or metaphysics may promise me? 

I read of the way of holiness, that the wayfaring man, 

though a fool, shall not err therein:

 have I been delivered from proud reason and been brought as a little child to rest in Jesus' love and blood? 

If so, by God's grace I shall outrun the strongest runner who chooses any other path. 

This truth I may remember to my profit in my daily cares and needs. 

It will be my wisest course to go at once to my God,

 and not to wander in a roundabout manner to this friend and that. 

He knows my wants and can relieve them, 

to whom should I repair but to himself by the direct appeal of prayer, and the plain argument of the promise. 

"Straightforward makes the best runner." 

I will not parlay with the servants, but hasten to their master.

In reading this passage, it strikes me that if men vie with each other in common matters, 

and one outruns the other, 

I ought to be in solemn earnestness so to run that I may obtain. 

Lord, help me to gird up the loins of my mind, 

and may I press forward towards the mark for the prize of my high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

If you are not a believer in Jesus Christ,

you can be accepted in to his kingdom. 

 I invite you to let him to make of you what 

He always wanted. 

"PRAYER" 

Marvelous God Almighty, 
I come to you in the precious name of Jesus, 
who died for me to make me free of sin, 

 I want Jesus to enter in to my heart and make me free. 

I confess that He is the son of God. 

I ask to change my heart and to give me wisdom to understand your Holy Word full of promises of eternal value, not only to live on this earth, but to be expectant of my life in heaven.

 In the precious name of Jesus I ask. 

Amen..

"The dove came in to him in the evening."

"The dove came in to him in the evening."

Genesis 8:11

Blessed be the Lord for another day of mercy, 

even though I am now weary with its toils. 

Unto the preserver of men lift I my song of gratitude. 

The dove found no rest out of the ark, 

and therefore returned to it; 

and my soul has learned yet more fully than ever,

 this day, that there is no satisfaction to be found in earthly things--God alone can give rest to my spirit.

 As to my business, my possessions, my family, 

my attainments, these are all well enough in their way, 

but they cannot fulfil the desires of my immortal nature. 

"Return unto thy rest, O my soul, 

for the Lord hath dealt bountifully with thee." 

It was at the still hour, when the gates of the day were closing, 

that with weary wing the dove came back to the master: 

O Lord, enable me this evening thus to return to Jesus.

 She could not endure to spend a night hovering over the restless waste, 

nor can I bear to be even for another hour away from Jesus, 

the rest of my heart, the home of my spirit.

 She did not merely alight upon the roof of the ark, 

she "came in to him;"

 even so would my longing spirit look into the secret of the Lord, 

pierce to the interior of truth, 

enter into that which is within the veil, 

and reach to my Beloved in very deed. 

To Jesus must I come: short of the nearest and dearest intercourse with him my panting spirit cannot stay.

 Blessed Lord Jesus, be with me, reveal thyself, 

and abide with me all night, 

so that when I awake I may be still with thee. 

I note that the dove brought in her mouth an olive branch plucked off, the memorial of the past day, 

and a prophecy of the future. 

Have I no pleasing record to bring home?

 No pledge and earnest of lovingkindness yet to come? 

Yes, my Lord, I present thee my grateful acknowledgments for tender mercies which have been new every morning and fresh every evening;

 and now, I pray thee, put forth thy hand and take thy dove into thy bosom.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

"But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart."

"But Mary kept all these things,

 and pondered them in her heart."

Luke 2:19

There was an exercise, on the part of this blessed woman, 

of three powers of her being: her memory--she kept all these things; 

her affections--she kept them in her heart; 

her intellect--she pondered them; 

so that memory, affection, and understanding, 

were all exercised about the things which she had heard. 

Beloved, remember what you have heard of your Lord Jesus, 

and what he has done for you; 

make your heart the golden pot of manna to preserve the memorial of the heavenly bread whereon you have fed in days gone by.

 Let your memory treasure up everything about Christ which you have either felt, 

or known, or believed, and then let your fond affections hold him fast for evermore.

 Love the person of your Lord! 

Bring forth the alabaster box of your heart, 

even though it be broken, 

and let all the precious ointment of your affection come streaming on his pierced feet. 

Let your intellect be exercised concerning the Lord Jesus.

 Meditate upon what you read: stop not at the surface;

 dive into the depths.

 Be not as the swallow which toucheth the brook with her wing, 

but as the fish which penetrates the lowest wave. 

Abide with your Lord:

 let him not be to you as a wayfaring man, 

that tarrieth for a night, but constrain him, saying, 

"Abide with us, for the day is far spent." 

Hold him, and do not let him go. 

The word "ponder," means to weigh.

 Make ready the balances of judgment.

 Oh, but where are the scales that can weigh the Lord Christ?

 "He taketh up the isles as a very little thing:"--who shall take him up? 

"He weigheth the mountains in scales"--in what scales shall we weigh him? Be it so, 

if your understanding cannot comprehend, 

let your affections apprehend; 

and if your spirit cannot compass the Lord Jesus in the grasp of understanding, 

let it embrace him in the arms of affection.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Do we then make void the law through faith?

"Do we then make void the law through faith? 

God forbid: yea, we establish the law."

Romans 3:31

When the believer is adopted into the Lord's family,

 his relationship to old Adam and the law ceases at once; 

but then he is under a new rule, and a new covenant. 

Believer, you are God's child; 

it is your first duty to obey your heavenly Father.

 A servile spirit you have nothing to do with: 

you are not a slave, but a child; and now,

 inasmuch as you are a beloved child, 

you are bound to obey your Father's faintest wish, 

the least intimation of his will.

 Does he bid you fulfil a sacred ordinance?

 It is at your peril that you neglect it, 

for you will be disobeying your Father. 

Does he command you to seek the image of Jesus?

 Is it not your joy to do so?

 Does Jesus tell you, 

"Be ye perfect, 

even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect"? 

Then not because the law commands, but because your Saviour enjoins,

 you will labour to be perfect in holiness. 

Does he bid his saints love one another?

 Do it, not because the law says, 

"Love thy neighbour," but because Jesus says, 

"If ye love me, keep my commandments;" 

and this is the commandment that he has given unto you, 

"that ye love one another." 

Are you told to distribute to the poor? 

Do it, not because charity is a burden which you dare not shirk, 

but because Jesus teaches, 

"Give to him that asketh of thee." 

Does the Word say, "Love God with all your heart"?

 Look at the commandment and reply, 

"Ah! commandment, 

Christ hath fulfilled thee already--I have no need, 

therefore, to fulfil thee for my salvation, 

but I rejoice to yield obedience to thee because God is my Father now and he has a claim upon me, 

which I would not dispute."

 May the Holy Ghost make your heart obedient to the constraining power of Christ's love, 

that your prayer may be, 

"Make me to go in the path of thy commandments; for therein do I delight." 

Grace is the mother and nurse of holiness, and not the apologist of sin.

"We will remember thy love more than wine."

"We will remember thy love more than wine."

Song of Solomon 1:4

Jesus will not let his people forget his love. 

If all the love they have enjoyed should be forgotten, 

he will visit them with fresh love. 

"Do you forget my cross?" says he, 

"I will cause you to remember it;

 for at my table I will manifest myself anew to you. 

Do you forget what I did for you in the council-chamber of eternity? 

I will remind you of it,

 for you shall need a counsellor, 

and shall find me ready at your call."

 Mothers do not let their children forget them.

 If the boy has gone to Australia, and does not write home,

 his mother writes--"Has John forgotten his mother?" 

Then there comes back a sweet epistle, 

which proves that the gentle reminder was not in vain.

 So is it with Jesus, he says to us, 

"Remember me," and our response is, 

"We will remember thy love." 

We will remember thy love and its matchless history.

 It is ancient as the glory which thou hadst with the Father before the world was. 

We remember, O Jesus, thine eternal love when thou didst become our Surety, 

and espouse us as thy betrothed.

 We remember the love which suggested the sacrifice of thyself, 

the love which, until the fulness of time, mused over that sacrifice, 

and long for the hour whereof in the volume of the book it was written of thee,  "Lo, I come."

 We remember thy love, 

O Jesus as it was manifest to us in thy holy life, from the manger of Bethlehem to the garden of Gethsemane.

 We track thee from the cradle to the grave--for every word and deed of thine was love--and we rejoice in thy love, 

which death did not exhaust; 

thy love which shone resplendent in thy resurrection. 

We remember that burning fire of love which will never let thee hold thy peace until thy chosen ones be all safely housed, 

until Zion be glorified, and Jerusalem settled on her everlasting foundations of light and love in heaven.
