Sing joyfully to the Lord, you righteous; it is fitting for the upright to praise him. Praise the Lord with the harp; make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre. Sing to him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy. Psalm 33:1-3
Will you praise and worship the Lord today for His greatness? We serve an awesome and mighty God. As part of your devotions today, read Psalm 33. The author, whom many say is David, calls on God’s righteous people to praise God for who He is and all His works. We are to sing joyfully to the Lord with music and sing to Him a new song with joy.
For the word of the Lord is right and true; he is faithful in all he does. The Lord loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of his unfailing love. By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth. He gathers the waters of the sea into jars; he puts the deep into storehouses. Psalm 33:4-7
The Lord is righteous! Let that encourage you as you stand for the sanctity of your marriage. Seek the Lord for His divine justice for your marriage.
Do you believe that your Lord God can do anything? He is great in power! He is trustworthy and faithful.
Are you living your life for yourself? The Lord wants you to surrender to Him as Lord and Savior. He wants you to allow Him to be your Husband, Protector and Provider. Allow Him to do miracles in your life by dying to your flesh and living totally for Him.
Do you fear the Lord, or are you being disobedient to what He wants you to do? Just because you are praying, fighting, and standing for your marriage, does not mean you cannot be effective for Him. Ask the Lord how you can serve Him right now.
The Lord foils the plans of the nations; he thwarts the purposes of the peoples. But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart through all generations. Psalm 33:10-11
I pray that you will write down the verse above and meditate on it for several days. The plans of the Lord stand forever. I want to obey the Lord and know that He can block or stop man’s plans anytime. We must trust Him and wait on His perfect timing.
“I know that you can do all things; no purpose of yours can be thwarted.” Job 42:2
Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails. Proverbs 19:21
Trust your Lord God. It may seem He has been silent for a season, but He is still right there with you. He is still listening to your every cry. Are you still reading the Bible? Are you still praying? Will you keep your eyes on the Lord and stop looking at your circumstances? This is a must! Fear the Lord, not man. The Lord will deliver you from your enemies.
As you read the end of Psalm 33, you will read that we have to “wait” for the Lord’s deliverance, and “wait” for His answers to our prayers. Will you trust in the Lord’s promises that He has spoken to you? My prayer is that you will put all your trust and hope in your Lord God. He will never fail you. Rest in His arms. He knows your every need.
May the Lord bring many lost souls to salvation and heal many hurting hearts and crushed spirits this blessed Lord’s Day.
But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love, to deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine. We wait in hope for the Lord; he is our help and our shield. In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name. May your unfailing love be with us, Lord, even as we put our hope in you. Psalm 33:18-22
God bless,
