I WILL Praise Him

Scripture For The Day

I WILL Praise Him! 

“I will…I will…I will…I will” Psalm 9 has David promising The LORD that he will be a living breathing testimony for God. This was probably written after a victory over the Philistines. I WILL praise Thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I WILL show forth ALL Thy marvelous works.  I WILL be glad and rejoice in Thee; I WILL sing Praise to Thy Name.

Our LORD is a Righteous Judge. We don’t have to get all upset and strike back at those who hurt us. The LORD will fight our battles. If we believe in HIM>

The LORD is so very patient with us and thankfully, He is forgiving, however; He is still Righteous in His Judgment even when He says ‘’ENOUGH!” Everything else will pass away. But The LORD will ALWAYS Remain. He is our Refuge in times of trouble, and we can Trust in Him for He will never…NEVER forsake those of us who seek His Face and His Will in our lives. So let us sing Praises to The LORD. Though verse 11 says He dwells in Zion, we know He dwells in Heaven. Zion was the place at this time where the tabernacle was set up and the worship of God was celebrated. It was and is a symbolic dwelling place of God. Today we often see Zion with symbolizing the church. We sing Praises to God at the opening and closing of church services. Give me a song that Praises Him rather than one that praises heaven, every single time. Because if The LORD aint there, it’s not any place I want to be. So, let us sing Praises to God. Let us Worship Him in Spirit and in Truth. 

He doesn’t forget the cries of the humble; those that truly Trust in Him and seek Him or of those who are oppressed because of their devotion to Him. vs 13-14 “Have mercy upon me, O LORD: consider my trouble (which I suffer) of them that hate me…I will Rejoice in Thy Salvation.” In the gates- for all to see. The LORD is Righteous in His Judgment. “Higgaion” occurs three times in the Psalms and is translated as meditation and a change in the music. The wicked have no excuse and unless they repent and accept The LORD they will go to hell. Though the needy may seem to be forgotten, God is paying attention, and the unbelievers shall be judged. This world will never prevail over God. It may seem like the enemy is winning from time to time. But be secure in knowing that whatever is going on God is STILL in control and the enemy is subject to the Will and Purpose of God. Praise His Holy Name. Praise Him in the morning. Praise Him in the noontime. Praise Him in the evening. For HE Alone, is worthy to be Praised!

Hide It Under a Bushel? NO!

   Scripture For The Day  December 19, 2023 Luke 19 part 1 "Hide It Under a Bushel? NO!"  And Jesus passed through Jericho. Jericho had a lot of history, even at that time. It was a major trading center and there was a wealthy tax collector named Zaccheus who lived and worked there. He heard about Jesus and decided to see for himself. But he was a short man and there were a lot of people traveling with Jesus and a huge crowd lining the street waiting to see Jesus pass by. Less than 15 miles away, Jesus had just raised Lazarus from the dead. He was a rockstar. So, Zaccheus ran up ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see Jesus. As soon as Jesus got to the tree, He looked up and said “Zaccheus, make haste, and come down; for today I must abide at thy house.” I bet y’all are singing the song right now…I was. 😊 The crowd began to murmur. How could Jesus eat with a sinner like this dishonest tax collector? Zaccheus was so overwhelmed with the love of Jesus that he

He Restores My Soul

Scripture For The Day    November 14, 2023 "He Restores My Soul"  Psalm 23- Most of us know this beloved Psalm. The LORD is our Shepherd and we who believe are His Sheep. However in recent years, the label of ‘sheep’ has become a derogatory term. I don’t care. I am so very thankful that I am part of His flock. So, Baa Baa baby. Call me a sheep. I know that I matter to Him just as much as the other sheep in His flock. No more, no less. In His Word, His people are never described as lions. But as meek and dependent sheep that depend upon a Shepherd. I’ll take that any day. Because it’s The Truth. I learned this passage when I was a little girl. But no one took the time to teach me what it meant. So, I was always confused by the first verse” “The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.” Why? I would ask The LORD? Why can’t I ‘want’ You? I Love You and I do ‘want’ You to be with me. It wasn’t until I was much older and studying on my own that I discovered the word ‘want” meant

Aijeleth Shahar

  Scripture For The Day  November 13 th , 2023 "Aijeleth Shahar"  Psalm 22 has David assigning this song to the director of the corporate worship stating it is to be sung or chanted by “Aijeleth Shahar” translated means by the hind of the dawn or “The Deer of The Dawn”. Made me think of how sometimes there are little songs for kids to learn and they often use the tune of “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star” for them to learn them better. Psalm 22 is a cry of anguish and as per usual a song of Praise. And by the very first verse, we can read words that Jesus Christ, Himself, spoke on The Cross. Jesus often quoted scriptures.  “My God, My God, why hast Thou Forsaken Me? (why art thou so) far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?” You have no idea how deeply this verse spoke to me today. I woke up early this morning thinking of the word Forsake. So, as I type I am asking The LORD, “What are you bringing to my heart today?” to forsake means to abandon or turn against. Mak
