Psalm 148
Inspired thots
It is FITTING to PRAISE the LORD! Anytime, anywhere by everything and everyone. How amazing to note that every creation is called to praise God with man last in the list of exhortation! Creation praises God by being what they are according to God's command; how much more man who is created in the likeness of God.
And God raises a HORN for His people and PRAISE for His saints. He who is seated in heavens Always wants the Best for His beloved. What a great and loving God!
Hallelujah! Rejoice! All you His saints, Praise the LORD!
A daily time out with the Lord Jesus, to hear Him speak to ME. I am asking the Lord to share HIS thoughts with ME, to teach me more about Himself, and how I can be drawn closer to Him... for 'His thoughts are not my thoughts and neither are His ways my ways' Isaiah 55:8,9. This blog is not a theological exegesis. This blog is to record down the INSIGHTS & INSPIRATIONS of God's Word to me; speaking LIFE into my life for Abundant life! :)

God's Delight is SO Simple
Psalm 147
Inspired thots
Man can search high and low for satisfaction; and be willing to risk much to acquire Power or Fame. But God only desires in those who fear Him or hope in His steadfast love. (v10,11) He is so mighty that He has all He need. He wants only the simple from man; his creation.
So indeed Praises to Him is seemly which would delight Him instead of sacrifices and works. How easy to be in God's favor! Hallelujah!

Solace in God
Psalm 143

The Lord is helping me sing new songs from the Psalms. This morning, I sang Psalm 143 and had v8 my chorus. The Lord is teaching me how to have the right rhythm to suit each verse; praise His name. Only He would hear and be pleased with my off-key singing.
No one quite understands in every situation except God; hence, it is really between you and God if you want to find solace. There is no one else who can offer Hope and Peace in distressful times; desperate times. only God!

Resting in the Lord
Psalm 132
Inspired thots
King David wanted to build a temple for God although God does not dwell in man-made structures. However, God is pleased with King David's attitude of loving Him to honor Him with a dwelling place.

Obedience is key through a personal encounter with God. How necessary to rest in the Lord to renew our strength. God's resting place is that of righteousness and obedience. Hallelujah for His revelation.
