Psalm 20:4 “May he give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed.” If you and I have no plans or goals, how can they succeed? They can’t because they don’t exist. God is telling each of us to have plans or goals while trusting Him; while realizing He is at the center of our lives; while living our lives to His glory and He will make our dreams come true. Never be self-centered–be God-centered and watch the blessings flow in your life. Not as a part of prosperity doctrine but as totally trusting and living as God’s adopted child. Have a great weekend.

Psalm 20:1 ‘”May the Lord answer you when you are in distress; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.” When you and I live with a faith which is at its strongest we place our lives completely in His hands. When do we actually practice such a faith? Maybe 1/2 of 1 percent of the time? WOW–that is weak. Am I wrong in that conclusion? Well, I guess you have to answer that question for yourself. From what I see, all of us could improve. We have to pray the prayer of this verse so we answer the question with the thought–100% of the time=always! That is how our loving God would have us think. Pray for such a faith.

Psalm 19:14 “May these words of my mouth and this meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer.” You and I are identical to David. We pray or converse directly to God in a manner like a loved son or daughter would talk to a loving father or mother. Parents are certainly where children find stability, love and security. That foundation is the responsibility of every parent to provide for their children. That relationship is then wonderfully recognized and applied to our Heavenly Father.

Psalm 19:9b & 10 “The decrees of the Lord are firm, and all of them are righteous. They are more precious than gold; than much pure gold; they are sweeter than honey, than honey from the honeycomb.” God’s Words are accurate, firm, correct, complete and have a value beyond measure while infused with a love found nowhere else. With all this being true, wouldn’t you and I enjoy reading His Word and gaining for ourselves truths found in no other source? How blessed we are!

Psalm 19:4 “Yet their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.” How can God’s creation be both silent, yet thunderous? When you look at the beauty which surpasses one’s imagination of the land and sky and the extreme complexity of nature we have no word superlative enough to define God’s handiwork. Evolution tries to explain how through billions of years things just happen, but that’s as foolish as foolish gets. Our magnificent God created a magnificent world. One’s eyes see His tremendous voice as we view the creation only He could design. Have a great weekend.
