Psalm 70

Praise

Even when David was afraid and earnestly seeking God’s help, he took time to praise God for who He is and all He has done. In Psalm 70:4 David praises God with, But may all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you; may those who love your salvation always say, “Let God be exalted!” God is worthy of our praise no matter the circumstances.

Psalm 69

Grace, Love, Mercy, Peace

May we always remember to be a reflection of Christ that helps lead others to Him. In Psalm 69:6 David says, May those who hope in you not be disgraced because of me, O Lord, the Lord Almighty; may those who seek you not be put to shame because of me, O God of Israel. We are not here to judge those around us, but to lead them to a relationship with God through Jesus Christ His Son. If our actions disgrace others and attempts to put them to shame, then we have failed in our role as followers of Christ.

Love, Praise

If we take time to consider who God is and his limitless power and love for us, we are overwhelmed. In Psalm 68:35 David says, You are awesome, O God, in your sanctuary; the God of Israel gives power and strength to his people. Praise be to God! God deserves our honor and praise.

Psalm 67

Blessings, Love

God’s grace is abundant for all our needs. Our biggest blessing as a child of God is that He looks at us with pride and love. Psalm 67:1 comes from Moses’ blessing shared from God to the Israelites, May God be gracious to us and bless us and make his face shine upon us. May we remember there is no greater blessing or honor than to have God’s face shine upon us. It is the proud Father we all long to have looking at us with pride.

Psalm 66

Love, Patience, Prayer

God is always there for us when we need Him. He listens to every word when we ask Him for help and He answers us according to His will. David recognized this in Psalm 66:20 Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love from me! God deserves our praise for may reasons, but especially because He listens and answers our individual prayers and our prayers as a body of believers who wait patiently for God’s perfect plan.

Psalm 65

Redemption, Salvation

God is able to forgive a multitude of sins. There is no sin or amount of sinning that God cannot forgive. In Psalm 65:3 David recognized this, When we were overwhelmed by sins, you forgave our transgressions. Forgiveness of sins is available to all. We were redeemed by the blood of Christ. We simply have to believe and accept the love of God through Jesus Christ His son.

Ephesians 1:5

Adoption, Blessings, Jesus, Love

Last night our community group from church started a new study in Ephesians. This will be an in-depth study of one of the most densely packed letters from the Apostle Paul to the church in Ephesus. As we started the study last night, one of the guys made a really interesting observation about Ephesians 1:5, which starts at the end of verse 4, In love, 5 he predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will. The observation was this: by being adopted, we skip to the front of the ancestry line of inheritance. We are  not the great, great, great…. grandchild of the King, we are the adopted child of the King. We have direct access. What a blessing it is to have direct access to our Father in heaven through Jesus Christ His Son. And what an interesting way to look at it, don’t you think?

Psalm 64

Praise, Trust

When people speak against us, whether it is true or false testimony, it still hurts. David experienced this more than anyone in the Bible with Jesus being the only exception. Yet he trusted in God and found God to be his refuge. In Psalm 64:10 David encourages all of us with the following passage: Let the righteous rejoice in the Lord and take refuge in him; let all the upright in heart praise him! No matter the circumstance or who stands against us, know that the Lord stands with us and provides the shelter we all need when the world seems to be against us. Trust in God and know He is with us always and remember to praise Him for it always.

Psalm 63

Faith, Protection, Trust

When David was hiding in the desert from his enemies, he longed for a friend he could trust. He found that trustworthy friend in his relationship with God. In Psalm 63:1 David says, O God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in the dry and weary land where there is no water. When we find ourselves feeling all alone, remember God is always with us and will never leave us alone. May we always thirst for God as intensely as David did when he was all alone in the desert.

Psalm 62

Faith, Protection, Trust

When we face trouble, we may be able to find shelter and rest in other distractions, but God is the only place we find eternal peace if we look to Him and trust in His perfect plan. David recognized this in Psalm 62:2, He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will never be shaken. There is no doubt about who alone David felt was his protector. Let this be an example to us when we face trouble. God will never leave us. We may lose focus on Him, but He will never lose focus on us.
