*Spirit Breakfast* 🍞☕ _8th March 2019_

*Theme:* *Selah*

Good morning. Meditation is key to internalizing spiritual truths. So this morning I'll share a text from the Psalms with 3 different bible translations. Just meditate on these verses: I trust the Lord to open your eyes to understand them.


Psalms 19:7-14 KING JAMES VERSION
[7]The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.
[8]The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.
[9]The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.
[10]More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
[11]Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward.
[12]Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults.
[13]Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression.
[14]Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.


Psalms 19:7-14 NEW LIVING TRANSLATION
19:7 The instructions of the lord are perfect,     reviving the soul. The decrees of the lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple.
19:8 The commandments of the lord are right,     bringing joy to the heart. The commands of the lord are clear, giving insight for living.
19:9 Reverence for the lord is pure, lasting forever. The laws of the lord are true each one is fair.
19:10 They are more desirable than gold,     even the finest gold. They are sweeter than honey, even honey dripping from the comb.
19:11 They are a warning to your servant, a great reward for those who obey them.
19:12 How can I know all the sins lurking in my heart? Cleanse me from these hidden faults.
19:13 Keep your servant from deliberate sins!     Don’t let them control me. Then I will be free of guilt and innocent of great sin.
19:14 May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing to you,     O  lord, my rock and my redeemer.


Psalms 19:7-14 MESSAGE BIBLE
7-9The revelation of God is whole and pulls our lives together.
The signposts of God are clear and point out the right road.
The life-maps of God are right, showing the way to joy.
The directions of God are plain and easy on the eyes.
God's reputation is twenty-four-carat gold, with a lifetime guarantee.
The decisions of God are accurate down to the nth degree.
10God's Word is better than a diamond, better than a diamond set between emeralds.
You'll like it better than strawberries in spring, better than red, ripe strawberries.
11-14There's more: God's Word warns us of danger and directs us to hidden treasure.
Otherwise how will we find our way?
Or know when we play the fool?
Clean the slate, God, so we can start the day fresh!
Keep me from stupid sins, from thinking I can take over your work;
Then I can start this day sun-washed, scrubbed clean of the grime of sin.
These are the words in my mouth; these are what I chew on and pray.
Accept them when I place them on the morning altar,
O God, my Altar-Rock, God, Priest-of-My-Altar.

Theme: My God: My Shepherd Anchor Text: Psalms 23:1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. The 23rd Psalm is one of the most well known passages of the Bible. The description is so vivid and real that it is certain that the one who wrote this understood and must have an in-depth experience concerning that which he wrote. The 23rd Psalm is a psalm of assurance and it's opening verse sets that in motion immediately. David probably thought of himself as a shepherd leading those sheep through the mountains and finding pasture and water for them. Not to mention the times he had to fight beasts to keep them safe. He then thought of how God had led him through the years and all he could say was the Lord is my Shepherd. How often have you thought of God's guidance, provision and protection deeply for these are the functions of a Shepherd towards his sheep. He guides them, provides for them and protects them. The Lord is my Shepherd: I don't need to go worrying abo

Topic: Love Not The World Text: 1 John 2:15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him . John the Apostle had a personal relationship with Jesus during His time here on Earth. The relationship was so deep that he was referred to as "the beloved" of Jesus. Therefore, he understood what it means to love Jesus and be loved by Jesus. In his epistle, he decides to speak a great deal about love. Love is one of the major themes of this apostle. So much so it earned him the nickname 'The Apostle of love" John submission is that anyone who loves the world does not have the love of the Father. Which is why he encouraged the believers no to love the world, nor the things in it. Sadly, many believers have not only fallen in love with the world, but have laid in bed with the world. This is the tragedy of the 21st century church. The Greek word which is translated as the "world

Theme: Isaiah 43:18-21 interpreted in relation to  Salvation. (Pt 11) Sub Theme: All will Honour God Anchor Text: Isaiah 43:20 The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen. Based on our anchor text, we discover that the reason the beast of the field, dragons and the owls would honour God was because He gave waters in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. Like we have established already that the Holy Spirit is the One who causes waters in the wilderness (salvation) and rivers to flow in the desert (Holy Spirit baptism). These creatures mentioned weren't physical rather they were spiritual entities. They were the demonic forces that try to oppose God's rule on Earth. And in order for God to establish His authority, He needs to make use of human entities as well. So Jesus gave His disciples a glimpse of how this is to work even though the Ho
