People have their own image of God - yet God presents himself in the Bible in a variety of ways. I thought I'd go back to what's in that book to see the way God is portrayed there.
God on devotion to Himself
And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these
The Bible: Mark 12:30-31Amplified Bible, with index
Amplified Bible, Indexed
Amazon Price: $29.63 (as of 05/17/2008)
A translation that goes back to the original languages to get the most accurate reading possible in the English language. If I were going to get me another Bible - this would be the one I'd pick.
Proverbs 30: The Words of Agur
The words of Agur son of Jakeh. The oracle.
The man declares, I am weary, O God;
I am weary, O God, and worn out.
2 Surely I am too stupid to be a man.
I have not the understanding of a man.
3 I have not learned wisdom,
nor have I knowledge of the Holy One.
4 Who has ascended to heaven and come down?
Who has gathered the wind in his fists?
Who has wrapped up the waters in a garment?
Who has established all the ends of the earth?
What is his name, and what is his son's name?
Surely you know!
5 Every word of God proves true;
he is a shield to those who take refuge in him.
6 Do not add to his words,
lest he rebuke you and you be found a liar.
7 Two things I ask of you;
deny them not to me before I die:
8 Remove far from me falsehood and lying;
give me neither poverty nor riches;
feed me with the food that is needful for me,
9 lest I be full and deny you
and say, "Who is the Lord?"
or lest I be poor and steal
and profane the name of my God.
New King James Bible
Pew Bible
Amazon Price: $9.99 (as of 05/17/2008)
New King James translation of the Bible. Close to the classic King James translation, but more modern in its language. This Bible will give you that classic feel that comes from centuries of Bible reading in Western culture.
On God's blessing to his people
A blessing I will condense and pass on to you: May the Lord bless you and keep you and make His face to shine upon you, and give you peace.

Psalm 121 (New International Version)
A song of ascents.
1 I lift up my eyes to the hills-
where does my help come from?
2 My help comes from the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.
3 He will not let your foot slip-
he who watches over you will not slumber;
4 indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The LORD watches over you-
the LORD is your shade at your right hand;
6 the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.
7 The LORD will keep you from all harm-
he will watch over your life;
8 the LORD will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.

That's a very famous quote - it's the Lord's prayer, isn't it? But it doesn't say anything about God - so instead of putting it on here, I'll put it on my Spiritual Quotes lens. Thanks for submitting it. Posted May 16, 2008 |
