Want to be blessed?

Psalm 34:8 “Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.” Never take refuge or find your security in any assets you may have.  Intelligence, savings, investments, job or anything that seems to give security, but which can also disappear in an instant.  The only piece of security which will never fade is the hope we have in our God.  He is from everlasting to everlasting.  We can find no more security than that.  Enjoy!!

God has eyes and ears?

Psalm 34:15 “The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are attentive to their cry;” Our Majestic God hears you and me and sees our actions in life.  The closest we can understand that happening is if one has eyes and ears.  David and God want us to understand, therefore; the words of this passage are written as they are.  This passage also says God is compassionate by using the last 4 words written.  We can certainly see we worship an awesome God just through this short verse.

It is impossible not to

Psalm 34:1 “I will extol the Lord at all times; his praise will always be on my lips.’ Not just thank you–but THANK YOU!  That is what David says we, as Christians should feel and express.  To be so appreciative of our God and His love for us brings us to tears.  How phenomenally blessed we are. Have a great weekend. 

Great morning prayer

Psalm 33:22 “May your unfailing love be with us, Lord, even as we put our hope in you.” Can there be more security than to own our God’s unfailing love?  Would you rather have a billion $ or God’s unfailing love?  Much of the world would choose earthly wealth.  How do I know?  Very simple–look at the morality and thinking of the world.  Those of us who choose His unfailing love have been blessed beyond measure.  Thank and praise God.

Hope–help–shield

Psalm 22:20 “We wait in hope for the Lord; he is our help and our shield.” Hope=confident expectation.  Hope is not maybe yes, maybe no.  Hope is an absolute.  You and I, with absolute confident expectation look forward to God fulfilling all the promises He has told us in Scripture.  Our life on this earth and our eternal life are in His hands (where we absolutely want them to be).  We could not possibly be in a better place!

Where are God’s eyes?

Psalm 33:18 “But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love.” God’s love is unique only to itself.  He sees you and me, because we place our hope in Him, as His dear children and blesses us accordingly.  To correct our human nature with its infinite number of flaws He sent His Son to live, die and rise so that you and I would become perfect.  There is no greater love.  What an amazing God we cherish with all our hope.
