I must share the truths from His word

I have shared before of how blessed I have been to have found Precepts Bible studies. If you have followed the Peapod for awhile, I have mentioned before (HERE) how much we appreciate these study books. I just started a new book with the girls for our Bible time for school. This year we decided to study, God, What's Your Name? by Kay Arthur (found HERE). We are learning about the importance of calling on the name of God. Today we studied Psalm 20 and I wanted to share the truths that we wrote down about God.
Bold
  • May the Lord answer you in the day of trouble.
  • May the name of God set you securely on high.
  • May He send you help from the sanctuary and support you from Zion.
  • May He remember all your meal offerings and find your burnt offering acceptable.
  • May He grant you your heart's desire and fulfill your counsel.
  • May the Lord fulfill all your petitions.
  • The Lord saves His anointed.
  • He answers from His holy heaven.
  • May the King answer us in the day we call.

I found incredible comfort in these truths today. I can stand on God's Word and know that He is faithful. God's name is my victory and my salvation. I will call upon His name. As we spend this year studying God's names, I am sure I will share what I have learned and hopefully this will also bless many of you.

Totally encouraged the other day as I was reminded of these names of God:
Ebeneezer
Thus far the Lord has helped me!
and
Jehovah Jireh
The Lord will provide!

Praying this will encourage you as you continue to cling to the truths of His Word!

My daughter and I just started "How to Study the Bible for Kids," and I can see that it's going to be good. We hope to do the Names study next.

K-Sue,

That book is really good but can be pretty hard for little ones. We worked on it together and we took more than one day to do a daily lesson. That way we didn't get too bogged down.
