Hey! Did you stop and think about it? In His Word 6-17-2024
Not that He needs our permission, but I find this verse in
this Psalm interesting because it says, “‘let God arise”. This gives me the
thought that we are allowing Him to arise.
This gives me thought to am I stifling the Holy Spirit in
some way when I do not sing to God and give praises to His name? Will I not be
lifting Him up from there earth?
When I read many of the Psalms I can really hear the songs
the people would sing with these as a starter point. If I did not read the rest
of the chapter I would not know more about this singing, this scattering of the
enemy. If I did not read the full Bible I would
not know how this Psalm fits in to the History of the Israelites, and
God’s Chosen people. He takes care of His own!
Let God arise,
Let His enemies be scattered.
Let those also who hate Him flee before Him.
As smoke is driven away,
So, drive them away;
As wax melts before the fire,
So let the wicked perish at the presence of God. But let the
righteous be glad.
Let them rejoice before God; Yes, let them rejoice
exceedingly.
Sing to God, sing praises to His name.
Extol Him who rides on the clouds,
By His name Yah and rejoice before Him. Psalm 68 1-4
When we lift God up or focus on His goodness, the things of
the world, in our lives that hinder us, that cause us consternation, that put
us in a mood; they all go away in the light of His glory and grace!
How would I know all of those things if I did not call unto
God, call out to God and ask Him to be part of my life? The funny thing is the One
who created my life is the One whom I invite into my life. Yet, in all reality He
is my life!~
If we stop and really think about the Word when we read it and
do not just whiz on through getting it done, we will find peace, hope, and
comfort. As well as love, joy, and a kindred spirit who will instruct us in all
things called the Holy Spirit!
If you ever wonder why I keep writing ‘In His Word’ know
this; His Word brings us life and we need to read it daily, often, and think
about it, and learn it in order to know it. When we know it then we will know
God truly, and gain life giving words ourself to be able to share with others.
I want to be able to answer questions I never knew I had! In reading the Word
of God we can do this! I desire for others, that means you, to read the Word
with thought, with enjoyment and with growth. My work is to share bits to get
you hungry for it, then your job is to get~ In His Word!
