Psalm 51:5 “Surely I was sinful at birth; sinful from the time my mother conceived me.” From the moment of conception, the beginning of life, there is need for a Savior. That is not my conclusion. That is God’s clear truth as the words of this passage acknowledge. Not only is there a need for a Savior, there is the recognition that life begins at conception. It does not matter what some say in regard to a woman’s rights; it rather matters what God has to say about the beginning of life. We again have to praise God for His infinite wisdom and our responsibility to learn from that wisdom.

Psalm 51:1b “…according to your great compassion blot out my transgressions.” Ultimate empathy is owned by our compassionate God. His example is an excellent lesson for each of us. His example tells each of us to have a heartfelt caring attitude for each other. His attitude makes each of us perfect before His eyes. He has created perfection. We pray this verse–God answers–we’re saved and inherit eternal life. You will not hear better news today or any day!

Psalm 51:1a “Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love…” Fortunately God’s mercy, grace and love is not dependent on your or my perfection. His mercy, grace and love is totally dependent on our God’s caring nature for each of us. Though we fail Him often, He never fails us. There is no other relationship we can compare to the relationship each of us has with our Savior. And another beautiful truth—they are new every day. There is nothing more loving!

Psalm 50:15 “and call on me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor me.” God invites each one of us to talk to Him. We use the word prayer. His invitation comes with a promise and with a resulting behavior on our part. God always listens. When we get to heaven we will be able to discuss with Him a rerun as to why He answered our prayers as He did. As all of us face earthly challenges, we need a sure defense and God is that loving defense. Be completely confident—He is your and my Ultra Strong Defense. We thank Him. Have a great weekend.

Psalm 48:14 “For this God is our God for ever and ever; he will be our guide even to the end.” If you had a volunteer guide whose advise would lead you to have a perfect, peaceful, secure life wouldn’t it be the ultimate of stupidity to ignore what He has to say? Well, we all have that Guide. Are you and am I listening?

Psalm 48:9 “Within your temple, O God, we meditate on your unfailing love.” God’s love is as secure as secure gets. His promises never fail and His love never fails. You and I can totally, totally, completely, completely, absolutely, absolutely,–what word can we use to express God’s unfailing love? How can we explain that concept to others with no faith or a weak faith? The difficulty lies in that there is nothing else like His unfailing love. There is no comparison. All you and I can do is praise our God for His unfailing love.

Psalm 48:1a “Great is the Lord, and most worthy of praise…” You and I say and believe the words of this passage, yet do we really comprehend what great and worthy means. There is no word I am aware of that applies only to our Magnificent, Spectacular, Glorious, Loving, Caring Savior. We simply cannot fathom being His adopted children. The important thing is: we are–enjoy being loved by our Most Unique God.

Psalm 47:7 For God is the King of all the earth; sing to him a psalm of praise.” It is impossible for any of us to understand the magnificence of God. Does a butterfly understand the life and strength of an eagle? Or a mosquito the strength of an elephant? Or a human understand the power of our Creator? To praise Him is the least you and I can do. What a wonderful God we worship!

Psalm47:6 “Sing praises to God, sing praises; sing praises to our King, sing praises.” We end the week with a beautiful thought. Every Christian lives life with this thought as a constant on their mind. How could anyone who has a relationship with God have anything other than the thought and action of this verse? Praise God! Have a great weekend.

Psalm 47:2 “For the Lord most high is awesome, the great King over all the earth.” Awesome is the majestic epitome of everything and that defines God. Two political parties are at war in an area of the country where I live and it would appear chaos will reign. What will be the outcome? When will peace again rule? God not only knows, He is your and my God and though man is full of confusion, God is not. You and I live with complete mental peace only because our Majestic God holds our hand and carries us no matter the turmoil prominent in our sinful world.

Psalm 46:10 “He says, ‘Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.'” Can God be anything but honored as the Only One with Supreme Authority? God is God. There is no other God. If only the world would recognize His majestic power we would live in a much more contented world. However, unknown by many, yet known by many–He is The Authority and Supreme Master of the Universe. Praise God that you have a relationship with Him as your loving Father.

Psalm 46:7 “The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.” God again makes a promise. He is always with us. That promise is the best promise you or I will ever hear. We take comfort in Him who will never fail us. Praise God.
