Psalm 10: 12-18


Arise, O Lord! O God, lift up Your hand! Do not forget the humble. Why do the wicked renounce God? He has said in his heart, You will not require an account. But You have seen, for You observe trouble and grief, to repay it by Your hand. The helpless commmits himself to You; You are the helper of the fatherless. Break the arm of the wicked and the evil man; Seek out his wickedness until You find none. The Lord is King forever and ever; The nations have perished out of His land. Lord You have heard the desire of the humble; You will prepare their heart; You will cause Your ear to hear, to do justice to the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may oppress no more.


This passage concludes the psalm about the wicked of the world and God's triumph over the evil ones. This is one of the steps in Knowing and Understanding God and His ways. Knowing that God is omniscient and knows before we act and Believing in that fact is a way that we can understand God's deity. Know and Believe that everything you do is known to God.


I highlighted the line that 'The Lord is King forever and ever.' I know that God is the Divine and the Ruler of everything. Sometimes I forget that He is omniscient and knows my thoughts and unspoken acts. David states it well when he said that God prepares their hearts and the God will let his ears hear our prayers and sees what we do all the time. I pray that I will do better in this.

Elijah and His Accomplishments

Image
His name means “The LORD is my God.” The message of his life matched his name. It still does today. Not only do we see evidence of this man threaded throughout portions of the Old Testament, but we also find mention of him sprinkled in the New Testament as well. His name? Elijah. So who was Elijah? What did he accomplish? As a person, what was he like? How did his faith intertwine with his everyday living? And how does he impact us?  Let’s take a look at fifteen attributes of Elijah and see how this man of faith encourages us in our own faith today. 1. Elijah was a Prophet Elijah’s message and the meaning of his name go together like a fresh glass of milk and warm cookies. He walked, talked, and encouraged others to believe that truly the Lord was God—just as his name purported. As a prophet he adamantly shared God’s message and warnings. Often, both came under fire. Sometimes, however, people turned from following false gods and found themselves deep in worsh...

Psalm 24: 1-6

Image
The earth is the Lord's, and all its fullness, The world and those who dwell therein. For He has founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the waters. Who may ascend into the hill of the Lord? Or who may stand in His holy place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart who has not lifted up his sould to an idol nor sworn deceitfully, He shall receive blessing from the Lord. And righteousness from the God of his salvation. This is Jacob, the generation of those who seek Him, who seek Your face. It is believed that these verses are a song that was written as David was bringing the ark of the covenant into Jerusalem. Later in the New Testament, Paul quotes these same words. This passage states that everything is under the control of God. It takes it back to creation onward. There are only the righteous who will be allowed to go into Holy Places with the Lord. These are those with clean hands and a pure heart; those with ethics and integrity. Living a good life has its rewards,...
