Bible Reading: Psalms 33: 1 - 22
Topic: Rejoice In The Lord All His Own
This Psalm is a hymn of
praise probably written to celebrate the Power, Wisdom and Mercy of God .
It gives abundant reasons
why God's People should rejoice in the Lord.
The source of the
believers' joy is not in the world neither is it in themselves, but in the
Lord.
New songs are put in their
mouths because they too are new creatures. It is only the born again that can
truly rejoice in the Lord in this world of uncertainty.
Reasons abound why
believers should rejoice in the Lord.
His Word, because it is
right (v. 4)
His Works because they are
done in truth and in loving kindness (vs. 4, 5)
His Power (vs. 8, 9)
because He is able to perform what He had promised
And His Counsel does not
fail and finally we are able to rejoice in and praise Him because we are
blessed.
He has chosen us for His
Inheritance (v. 12) All spiritual blessings are ours because we belong to Him.
Therefore we should
rejoice no matter the circumstances in which we find ourselves, reminding
ourselves that "all things work together for good to those who love God,
to those who are called according to His Purpose." (Rom. 8: 28)
Prayer:
Father, thank You for
being my Lord because I know that I am blessed beyond words, Amen.
Memory verse: Psalms 33: 20
"Our soul waiteth for
the Lord, He is our Help and our Shield"
