Think about it… Two key things a Christian needs every day in the world in which we live…
“GRACE to you and PEACE!”
And Who/where do we get them from?
“From GOD OUR FATHERand the LORD JESUS CHRIST!”
And remember that incredibly important “tidbit” was WRITTEN FROM PRISON by Apostle Paul! … Philippians 1:1-2
Meditating this morning on the shortest Psalm… the shortest chapter… in the Bible – Psalm 117. But boy, does it pack a wallop!! I mean, just think about comprehensiveness of these concepts!! …
So this is what the Psalm says…
“PRAISE THE LORD, all you NATIONS!
Extol Him, all you PEOPLES!
For GREAT IS HIS LOVE toward us!
The FAITHFULNESS of the Lord ENDURES FOREVER!
PRAISE THE LORD!
So here I am with my cup of coffee this morning blown away by His great love and enduring faithfulness trying, in my feeble way to adequately praise and extol Him!! Perhaps, just perhaps, the Holy Spirit can assist me today (cp. Romans 8:26-27; 1 Corinthians 14:2, 4, 14-18)… Ya think?
“Just a Sip” from my Bible reading this morning… From Psalm 111 in celebration of the Lord’s “WORKS” (all He has done, is doing and will do!)… Think about it!
“Praise the Lord!
I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart,
in the company of the upright, in the congregation.
Great are THE WORKS OF THE LORD,
studied by all who delight in them.
Full of splendor and majesty is HIS WORK,
and His righteousness endures forever.
He has caused HIS WONDROUS WORKS to be remembered;
The Lord is gracious and merciful.
He provides food for those who fear Him;
He remembers His covenant forever.
He has shown His people THE POWER OF HIS WORKS,
in giving them the inheritance of the nations.
THE WORKS OF HIS HANDS are faithful and just;
all His precepts are trustworthy;
They are established forever and ever,
to be performed with faithfulness and uprightness.”
– From Psalm 111 ESV
