Poetic truths

Psalm 36:8 “They feast on the abundance of your house; you give them drink from the river of your delights.” David expresses the huge generosity of our God.  You and I have to daily thank God for all He does for us.  As we experience His generosity on this earth imagine what Heaven is like for those we love who have left this earth and the wonders which we all are soon to experience.

Is anything more precious?`

Psalm 36:7 “How precious is your unfailing love, O God! People take refuge in the shadow of your wings.” There is not a person on earth who has not failed multiple times.  A common rule of failure is 80% success and 20 % failure, and a persistence will make a person very successful.  The rule God follows is: 100% success and 0% failure.  When God says –you can count on Me, I will never fail you, My love for you never fails==He is speaking 100% truth.  That is impossible to bet.

Define God’s love

Psalm 36:5 “Your love, Lord. reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies.” God’s love exceeds our ability to understand because we cannot help but ask the question–why?  That question is also without understanding.  Is love difficult to understand because it is the ultimate of caring, comforting, commitment and a host of other words which express an ultimate commitment to another’s life.  And love must include forgiveness.  There is no greater love relationship than your God’s love for you. Have a great weekend.

Continually

Psalm 35:28 “My tongue will proclaim your righteousness, your praises all day long.” You and I have an unbelievable relationship with God.  That is a thought which is very difficult to understand.  How and why does God desire a closeness to you and me who are constantly doing actions and thinking thoughts which are counter to His will?  He even loved us so much that He sent His Son to exist in human form just so we could have that relationship.  You and I have to continually thank our Amazing God!

Faith and trust

Psalm 34:19 “The righteous person may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all.” The first half of this verse is easy to understand, but the second half is not easy to understand.  Troubles, on a scale of 1-10 are 9.999 while our understand or comprehension of God’s love and His emergency life ambulance is so very low.  Should you and I, with an increase in faith, hope and prayer turn that statistic to be just the opposite?  He delivers us from them all is a towering skyscraper promise.

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.

Is America blessed?

Psalm 33:12 “Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people he chose for his inheritance.” Is America a Christian nation?  Many Christians are trying to make it that way.  Charlie Kirk certainly was trying very hard and his wife is now taking his place to accomplish the same.  We all have to ask–are we playing our role in making America a blessed nation?  Time will expose the answer; however, let each of us show the courage to live and encourage others to live the life our God intends for us.
