seasons. 8 I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I
shall not be moved. 9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh
also shall rest in hope…. 11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is
fullness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.”

WITH THE LORD—CONTINUALLY SEEK HIM AND ALWAYS LIVE TO PLEASE HIM!

that day [when I judge them], ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, and
driven out demons in Your name, and done many miracles in Your name?’ 23And
then I will declare to them publicly, ‘I never knew you; DEPART FROM ME [you are
banished from My presence], YOU WHO ACT WICKEDLY [disregarding My commands].”

OBEY THE LORD! BE A WATCHMAN FOR LOST SOULS—TELL THE WORLD AROUND
YOU THAT JESUS SAVES! “After seven days the LORD gave me a message. He
said, 17 “Son of man, I have appointed you as a watchman for Israel. Whenever you
receive a message from me, warn people immediately. 18 If I warn the wicked, saying,
‘You are under the penalty of death,’ but you fail to deliver the warning, they will die
in their sins. And I will hold you responsible for their deaths. 19 If you warn them and
they refuse to repent and keep on sinning, they will die in their sins. But you will
have saved yourself because you obeyed me.”
