Larry Lilly's Journal March 2016 Volume 18 Issue 3
Wisdom Measured by Grains of Sand Larry Lilly

Psalm 90:12 "So teach us to number our days, That we may gain a heart of wisdom."
Whenever I read or hear this verse, my memory takes me back many years and I again hear McDonald Carey intoning, “"Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives." The phrase has its roots here in the grand wisdom of Moses the man of God. The “time” of which our life consists is like sand, always shifting and often a mere nuisance compared to what it should and could be.
Psalm 90 is considered to be a Penitent/Intentional Prayer of Moses. We can learn much from this brief treatise on life and the wonder of it all. I hope you can read this brief mini sermon on this Psalm with a Bible of some sort at hand. I enjoy my smart phone for such times. Space does not permit the printing of each the verses in Psalm 90, so I will list the cite and comment on verses 1-12.
In his prayer Moses acknowledges God as our source, His rightful place as Creator. We hinder our prayers when we fail to fully understand that as Creator of all there is, we must get it that all good things flow from His heart and hand to our need, and He often gracefully supplies our wants as well. When Moses uses the phrase, “You have been our dwelling place in all generations,” he is stating that the people of Israel had, at least occasionally grasped that God is the center of their very life. Paul uses the same idea when he states in Acts 17:28 "for in Him we live and move and have our being, as also some of your own poets have said, 'For we are also His offspring.'” We are Christo Centric or Ego/self-centered. As self-centered our prayers seldom get higher than the ceiling.
We are assured in verse two, that though things may look very bad, God is control of history and His plan is working in many ways. In times such we live in, we must always be looking to the Lord in trust. He is not forsaking us, though we may have in different ways forsaken Him. Because the Lord is in control, we should wisely make our day’s count.
Moses tells us in verse 4, that time means little to God, with the famous “a thousand years in your sight are as yesterday” we creatures are trapped in time for a while, a time that will seem as nothing when we step through the veil into eternity. Because we are creatures to whom time is all we can now use wisely or unwisely, we are according to vs 5-7 are like the grass, it doesn’t last long, and often the very thought of our demise from this current realm, terrifies us, because we have some inkling of God’s awesomeness, and our comparative, horrific weakness.
Try as we may, we cannot remove the truth, our sins, though we attempt to hide them, are clearly before the eyes of God. He beholds them and insists they must be dealt with and it seems like we pass our time aware of God’s wrath and no matter our physical strength, we go down with but a last sigh.
Moses sums the panorama of life in vs 10 as he notes the regular limits of our years on earth. Psalm 90:10 “The days of our lives are seventy years; And if by reason of strength they are eighty years, Yet their boast is only labor and sorrow; For it is soon cut off, and we fly away.” The essence is simple, no matter how many years, life is short and seems shorter the older we get and at a given time we shall join the ranks of all who roam the globe and fly away.
Moses, yet again, brings the Image of God as really upset with the sins of His creation with the assertion, rhetorically, that the limits of God’s anger as so severe as to be incomprehensible to the mind of the mere creature.
While Moses did not have the full revelation of God’s love in Christ for the redemption of the fallen and straying creature, whose theme was captured by the pen of Robert Robinson with this lyric,
“Prone to wander Lord I feel it, Prone to leave the God I love. Here’s my heart O take and seal it, seal it for thy courts above.”
In the days of Moses the people were prone to wander and much hasn’t changed since! Yet, throughout both Testaments we are taught to make the time count. In the Old Testament due to God’s wrath and in the New due to His everlasting love for His people in Jesus Christ!
Here again is the verse for all time:
Psalm 90:12 “So teach us to number our days, That we may gain a heart of wisdom.”
Living the fruitful and wise life is a feat that must be enabled by Jesus as He said in John 10:10 "The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.”
In contrast to “the thief,” Christ’s purpose in our life is that we are able to have and enjoy life abundantly in contrast to the exasperating life lived by the world around us.
We know from observation and the Bible that discipline is essential to any life with living. Moses implored God to teach us the “how” of this life that counts. Jesus brings our attention to the truth that the learning of it is in His plan via the instructing work of the Holy Spirit via the Word of God. Note: John 14:26 "But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.”
The phrase of Moses, “number or count,” means to actually use our time wisely is a skill that we must learn and implement the principles into our daily habit of making the minutes meaningful instead of merely breathing through the day.
Here’s an interesting piece from Dale Flynn’s weekly Internet offering:
Just Fifteen Minutes a Day (Lou Nicholes)
“Most of us don’t aspire very high in our reading because we don’t feel like there is any hope. But listen to this. Suppose you read about 250 words a minute and that you resolve to devote just 15 minutes a day to serious reading to deepen your grasp of biblical truth. In one year (365 days) you would read for 5,475 minutes. Multiply that times 250 words per minute and you get 1,368,750 words per year.
Now most books have between 300 and 400 words per page, so if we take 350 words per page and divide that into 1,368,750 words per year, we get 3,910 pages per year. This means that at 250 words a minute, fifteen minutes a day, you could read about 20 average-sized books a year!
I believe you will be absolutely elated: reading an amount that you never thought you could do getting done in a 15-minute slot that would have been wasted anyway. Start with the Bible and then choose some great commentary or biography.”
Remember, “Today is THE day of Salvation!” LML.

A More Excellent Way! L.D. Grant, Faithful Life Pub. North Fort Myers, Fl. 310 pgs, Six Sections. $16.95 L.D. Grant 1302 N. 350 Ave Payson, IL 62360. Bulk Price available.
Pastor Grant has performed a grand service via his clear teaching on 1Cor. 12:31b. From the passage flows 310 pages, each one demanding to be turned to the next, a rare feat in a book of this nature. The cover is on point as a visual for teaching the gifts of the Spirit from the point of view of God’s Word contrasted to the popular humanistic view.
Dr. Grant is able to expound on some of the most perplexing passages in a manner understandable by the newest or long seasoned Christian or Bible scholar as Dr. Grant is well schooled in the original language of the Word.
In addition to serving as Senior Pastor at three thriving Baptist Churches, Dr. Grant has served as chairman of the Michigan Association of Regular Baptist Churches. He also held the same title serving the Illinois/Missouri Association.
Dr. Grant is now widowed having been married to Shirley for over 60 years.
The kind, yet true to the Word teaching about the importance of the Gifts of the Holy Spirit in this age is a balanced and much needed book for this time. Dr. Grant states, “I must openly admit that I have, at times, under-emphasized the importance of the ministry of the Holy Spirit in my daily life and in my ministry. This has sometimes led to a real or perceived dead orthodoxy. I’ve been perfect, but spiritually deficient.” He continues by emphasizing the importance of balance.
I am certain A More Excellent Way will bless all who read and apply it to their daily life. Get the book. JDL.

Comments From Other Pens
J. Wilbur Chapman, (1859-1918) was a Presbyterian pastor/evangelist who become the mentor of Billy Sunday tells of how he came to a settled belief, overcoming doubt, concerning personal salvation by learning to simply trust what Jesus said.
During a fit of doubt, early in his life as a Christian, he went to a prayer room and D.L. Moody counseled him by having him read John 5:24, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation: but is passed from death unto life.” Moody then asked:
“Suppose you had read that for the first time, wouldn’t you think it was wonderful?” Chapman answered, “Yes.”
“Do you accept it?”
“Yes.”
“Well, are you a Christian?”
“Mr. Moody, I sometimes think I am, and sometimes I am afraid I’m not.”
“Read it again.”
“I read it again.”
“Do you believe it?”
“Yes!”
“Well, are you a Christian?”
“I started to say over again, that sometimes…” Mr. Moody turned quickly, eyes flashing and said, “See here, whom are you doubting?” Instantly I understood that I had been doubting God’s Word.” Since that day I have had many sorrows and many joys, but never have I doubted for a moment that I was a Christian, because God said it!”

THE ABIDING GIFT OF HOPE 1Cor 13:13b Dr. L.D. Grant
A. Abiding Hope Is Rooted in The Promises of God.
1. Abiding Hope has a Biblical promise to rest upon so that we could it our Abiding Expectation.
2. In other words, God has given us a promise upon which we can expect it to be fulfilled, thus it becomes our hope!
3.Now we could cite numerous examples of this, but we’ll use only one or two so you get the picture.
A. In John 11:25 Jesus tells Martha that even if she dies she shall live.
B. Paul tells us that he was called unto questioning relating to the hope he had in the resurrection, Acts 23:6.
C. And 1Thessalonians 4:16 fortifies our hope by telling us about our Rapture or Resurrection.
4.Thus our hope is not based on blind faith, but on the very Word of God that Abides forever.
B. Abiding Hope By Far Exceeds The Expectation of Any Non-abiding Gift.
1. It can be renewed moment by moment by reading God’s promises.
2. It can be relied upon every moment of every day because it is based on the Word of God.
3. It can be trusted because it is rooted in the promises of God that are all Yea and Amen.
4. It can be used to assure the heart when it is in doubt.
5. It can used as a solace during troublesome times.
6. It can be shared as a testimony to others
7. It can be used to document your faith.
Excerpted from A More Excellent Way by Dr. L.D. Grant pg 246-247.
Editor’s Note: See Joyce’s review.. Dr. Grant’s book is one of the best books I have read in over fifty years on the importance of God’s gifts. LML

The Importance of Our Marriage Hershael York, pastor in Kentucky
Think about it like this:
· Has the church in the United States ever had a more advantageous time to stand in stark contrast to the world?
· To distinguish itself from the prevailing morality,
To present a true counter-culture,
To model the Gospel?
When we had greater numbers and political influence the world thought our great concern was numbers and political influence. If we profess Christ and stand on the Word when it costs us dearly however, then even our detractors and persecutors will see that it is not about us, but about our Savior.
· The first marriage was between a perfect man and a perfect woman.
· The last marriage was between a glorified man, the Lord Jesus, and His sanctified bride, the church.
Between these two weddings, humanity has marred and defaced the institution of marriage in many ways, including this new way. But the Lord Jesus will have the last say.
Until then, I am doing all I can to make my marriage to reflect the love of Christ for His church and to share the Gospel of grace with everyone. No hand-wringing, no fear, no hatred, and no bitterness. Just love of the Lord Jesus, of the truth, of my wife, of the Lord’s church, of my neighbor, ALL of my neighbors.
Though something in our culture has definitely changed, everything in the Word of God remains the same. I rest in that. It may seem like we have hit bottom. By God’s grace we are about to discover there is a Rock down there.

NEW YORK (AP) - A former business titan convicted more than a decade ago in a notorious corporate fraud case that featured headline-grabbing tales of excessive spending is now board chairman of a New York City nonprofit that helps ex-prisoners re-enter society, the group announced Tuesday.
Ex-Tyco International CEO L. Dennis Kozlowski, who served 6½ years behind bars after he and another executive were convicted of looting millions of dollars from the security systems company, said he was honored to lead The Fortune Society's 31-member board.
"I was fortunate where I had a support system and was able to have family and friends to help me land on my feet," he said. "But most people don't have that and most people need a lot of help."
The group serves about 5,500 formerly incarcerated people every year with help getting jobs, housing, health services, education and anything else they need.
JoAnne Page, the group's president and CEO, touted Kozlowski's business experience and passion for the work, saying in a statement he "has already proven himself to be an inspirational leader."

Editor: I am amazed at this article as it gives serious hope to many who are incarcerated and well meaning people tell them their life is over. IT IS NOT! Thousands of people are being helped every year by this group and many others, including yours truly. Over the years Charles Colson led the way for people concerned about reaching, raising and restoring men and women who had committed awful breaches of trust. I sincerely wish Dennis the best. LML

Note From Larry
This month I received a check for $10 from a former student in my Advanced Pastoring class, who is now ministering in another prison! I actually wept at the sight of the gift. This man has experienced an amazing change in his heart and his life shows it! My ministry does not have the enormous impact of the one at the bottom of this page, but it is making a difference in many lives. Keep in mind the truth of the italicized statement below.
It is through prayers and unselfish giving to the ministry that I am able to continue producing this Journal each month. Thank you very much for your kindness.
If the Lord Jesus lays it on your heart to help with prayers and or financial help make the check or money order to Larry Lilly and mark Journal on the for line.
God bless you as you live for Jesus.
