Inviting IN the King of Glory

Psalm 24

Inspired thots

How important it is to INVITE the King of Glory into our life. He is ABOVE ALL things; the whole earth belongs to Him. The wise will heed this psalm to revere the King of Glory ~ our God Almighty; for there is NONE like Him! Hallelujah!

How assuring and wonderful that it IS POSSIBLE to ascend the hill of the Lord! There is a way to enter into His presence but He is a Holy God and one must walk in HIS ways to be able to stand in HIS Presence.

God is good! He always provides the way to Him who satisfies. Hallelujah!

God is With Those Who Call Upon HIm

Psalm 22

Inspired thots

Even Jesus cried out in desperation when suffering on the cross; it was hard for Him to endure the pain and humiliation but He TRUSTED God who WILL DELIVER.

The afflicted must continue to praise God while waiting for deliverance and healing. They SHALL eat and be satisfied. (v26) Hence, this is a psalm of Hope.

Our God is a God of HOPE & RESTORATION; I Believe!

Prayer of HOPE & VICTORY!

Psalm 20 & 21

Inspired thots

My heart aches for my eldest sister who is suffering from acute leg pain. After 3 weeks, the pain has not eased and these two psalms bring comfort to my seeking of God on her situation. Though the 'WHY?' is not yet answered, the comfort is on the goodness of God who delivers.

God will help and and give the victory to His righteous and anointed. Trusting in Him steadfastly will see one through. God is so compassionate towards His loved ones. One must keep hiding in the shelter of His name and wings till the bad wind blows over.

The VICTORY WILL COME!

Revelation of God Through Creation & Word

Psalm 19

Inspired thots

One of the most beautiful psalms to remind one of who God is and how He can be found. It is SO easy to know God... creation is crying out His glory everyday! There is so much nature around for one to ponder over God...

The word of God is available too to discover God; its contents bring life, hope and joy. How can one not want it? Only the wise would desire it for life. 

Nothing else compares to God; hence, the ONLY CHOICE in life is GOD!

Exalting the God who Delivers

Psalm 18

Inspired thots

Great is king David's confidence in God as he recounts the numerous moments of deliverance by God from his enemies. His confidence in God stemmed from his righteous walk with the Lord. God is always with His righteous who WILL enjoy His protection. It is the enemy who will run away when God delivers His people.

The righteous will CALL upon the Lord for deliverance; they will CRY out to Him for help; they will CHOOSE to remain faithful to the Lord; they will SEE His vengeance on their behalf. How awesome is our God!

Deep Level of Relationship with God

Psalm 17

Inspired thots

King David was so sure of his own righteous position in the Lord; he seemed to know God so well that he could call out to Him like a friend unto a friend. King David was bold in calling on God to confront his enemies and keep him as 'the apple of the eye' with God.

King David was confident in beholding God's face in righteousness; being satisfied with beholding God's form... that is like seeing God! How bold to declare self as righteous! What a sweet intimacy with God to be able to declare such words.
