Psalm 95:6 “Come, let us bow down in worship, let us kneel before the Lord our Maker.” You and I have a direct invitation from our Psalmist and from God–Come–His hands are extended in a most loving gesture. He says–show sincere humility–bow down and kneel. How can we do anything else before God? What an honor for us to have the wonderful love relationship we enjoy with our Lord.

Psalm 95:4-5 “In His hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to him. The sea is his, for he made it, and his hands formed the dry land.” Who else could the above verses apply to than our Almighty God? None of the above verses can apply to any other god. Hinduism–1.5 billion followers; Islam–2 billion followers; Buddhism–500 million followers; Folk/Indigenous religions–400 million followers; Sikhism–30 million followers; Judaism–15 million followers; No religion–12 billion followers; that’s a lot of religions with a lot of followers! And there are hundreds more–both religions and followers. (Got the info from Google) You and I can’t be more thankful in knowing the One and Only True God. What blessed lives we live and what an eternity we can look forward to. living.

Psalm 95:3 “For the Lord is the great God, the great King above all gods.” We often place God on our own level or maybe the level of “important” people. That thinking couldn’t be farther from the truth. God created the universe through simply saying words. Jesus (God) rose from death! God has stopped time. God has no beginning and no end. And this majestic God loves you and me always (not even my wife does that). Our God is God with no comparison. What an honor it is to be His child.

Psalm 95:1 “Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.” No one shouts for joy during a time of depression. No one sings aloud when they do not recognize the magnificence of our Glorious God. No one invites others to join in this praise mentality unless they recognize God is to be praised. We join our Psalmist in song and shouting praise to our loving Savior.

Psalm 94:32 “But the Lord has become my fortress, and my God the rock in whom I take refuge.” Both a fortress and a rock represent solid, secure, pure impenetrable protection. That is our Lord, that is our God. God brings a peace to each of us while the world brings confused chaos. Never let the world override what our Savior lived, died and rose to achieve specifically for you and me. Let His peace dwell in each of us richly. Have a great weekend.

Psalm 94:19 “When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.” A natural human trait is anxiety. Anxiety or a feeling of impending doom can wreck a person’s night or day or relationship or any situation where a person’s faith becomes weak–not nonexistent–just weak. God’s love seems to be somewhere but not in the forefront where it really is. No human is exempt. The good or rather great news is the second half of this verse. God’s love never fails and brings you and me comforting joy. You and I are blessed beyond measure.

Psalm 94:14 “For the Lord will not reject his people; he will never forsake his inheritance.” God NEVER breaks His promises and NEVER leaves those He loves. There is nothing and no one more constant and reliable than God. He defines the words CHANGELESS and CONSTANT. When God PROMISES, He DELIVERS. You and I find it difficult to understand all this because you and I are not God and you and I do not have His qualities. Believe Him as a loving child believes a loving parent. We are in GREAT HANDS.

Psalm 93:1 “The Lord reigns, he is robed in majesty; the Lord is robed in majesty and armed with strength; indeed, the world is established, firm and secure.” The God you and I worship is like no other god. Our God is not in competition with other gods. You and I confidently place our complete confidence , trust and hope in our God. Fortunately, we have a security which carries us in this life and will bring us into our eternity in Heaven. Unfortunately, that truthful security is unknown by so many.

Psalm 92:5 “How great are your works, Lord, how profound your thoughts!” There is not a word in the English or any other language which encompasses the magnificence and glory of God. The best we can acknowledge are the words of our Psalmist–great! And since God’s words are profound wouldn’t you and I want to study those words so our speech and thinking is profound also? We acknowledge and we constantly learn and follow.

Psalm 91:11 “For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.” What is the role of angels or what are the roles of angels? We know God created angels to both serve and glorify Him and He created angels to serve you and me. Angels have a much larger role in God’s kingdom than we acknowledge or recognize. Some scholars suggest there are hundreds of millions of angels and how many are your and my guardians? You and I never walk alone. Our Savior is always by our side as well as our heavenly angels. There is so much we will be learning when we enter eternity—we all look forward to our home in Heaven.

Psalm 91:2 “I will say of the Lord, ‘He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.'” There is no one you or I can trust more than our God. Every word He says is absolute truth. You and I place our full confidence, our eternity, on His promises. When God writes–I am your refuge and fortress and strength–trust me–we can only thank Him for the loving care He has for us. He has blessed us far beyond what we deserve, and we should show our appreciation by the lives we live.

Psalm 91:1 “Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.” A shelter is a place of security. To rest is to relax in comfort . A shelter is physical rest while relaxing is mental or emotional rest. Our loving Heavenly Father freely provides both. To live a purposeful life as God intends for each of us is to always be surrounded with the security only He can provide. Live with and enjoy His peace and security.
