Free & Fit - Summer with the Psalms - Friday 16th August Psalm 76

Summer with the Psalms

Friday 16th August Psalm 76



“Make vows to the Lord your God and fulfill them; Let all who are around Him bring gifts to Him who is to be feared [with awe-inspired reverence].”


‭‭Psalms‬ ‭76‬:‭11‬ ‭AMP‬‬ and in full:



Opening Prayer: Father God we thank you that we must not seek to please man, but only be with you. We may fail to please you, honor or follow you, but Lord help us to always be only fearful of you. Wipe away our tears, cleanse us of our sins and wash us white as snow. We love you, we need you and we humble ourselves to fear you today in Jesus name. Amen


Reflection:


How we love is ultimately how we heal. How we treat others is the foundation of how we form relationships with others. How we love God and our fellow humans is how we will be able to interact, trust and commit to future healing that maybe required as we encounter life and walk through some of our most difficult challenges. If we love well, we heal well and respond well to those nearest and dearest to us.


Often times we are challenged by the culture, company or city we live in. Sometimes it can be the people, the place or the physical process of everyday life that causes us to experience hurt or fear. In today’s scripture we are reminded to fear God, hate what is evil and do good. We are called in the Bible to even love our enemies as a witness and Jesus was unrelenting about this and he was crystal clear about what to do. In the amplified version in Romans 8 it it states “detest all ungodliness and do not tolerate wickedness.” Sometimes this is not easy, it can be uncomfortable and inconvenient, but it is the most important and essential thing we must do holding tightly to what is good.


So today let’s be like Jesus. Lets not tolerate the things of this world to consume us and let’s instead turn to stand for the Gospel of Jesus Christ. As Paul wrote to the Romans he writes to us today to hate what is evil and to do good. So today let’s do good. Let’s keep on encouraging, praying and reading our Bibles daily all in the name of an awe inspiring reverence of Jesus Christ. Amen


Let us Pray…


Father we re-commit our lives to you again today. Help us not to tolerate the ways of the world, the pains of the world and to remain quiet. Give us the convictions to be your hands and feet to stand against what is evil and to stand what is Good the Good News of the Gospel in Jesus name. Amen


“So it is good to wait quietly for salvation from the Lord.”


‭‭Lamentations‬ ‭3:26‬ ‭NLT‬‬
