Thursday... This is another of his wonders.


Psalm 147:18 (MSG), "Then he gives the command and it all melts; he breathes on winter - suddenly it's spring!"

Thursday... This is another of his wonders.

I am sitting here in my morning coffee shop and looking out the window at one of the wonders of God, the trees have leaves all over them. It seems that the last time I had really looked, there were no leaves. The leaves knew when to come out.


It was great to see and then I read Psalm 147:18 (MSG), and it said, "Then he gives the command and it all melts; he breathes on winter - suddenly it's spring!" Oh what a God we serve. He really does know what he is doing.

Verse 15 in the Amplified Bible says, "He sends His command to the earth; His word runs very swiftly."

Verses 3-5 (NLT) says, "He heals the brokenhearted and bandages their wounds. He counts the stars and calls them all by name. How great is our Lord! His power is absolute! His understanding is beyond comprehension!" And he covers the trees with leaves just at the right time, "suddenly it's spring!"

And the writer starts this Psalm in verse 1 by saying, "Praise the Lord! How good to sing praises to our God! How delightful and how fitting." And he ends this Psalm by saying, "Praise the Lord!"

No matter what we are going through he knows what he is doing.

And verses 10 & 11 says, "He takes no pleasure in the strength of a horse or in human might. No, the Lord delights in those who fear him, those who put their hope in his unfailing loves." And that is another of his wonders. "Praise the Lord!" Yes, yes! #todaysvbeginning

Friday... We have this hope of expectancy.

Psalm 5:3 (NLT), "Listen to my voice in the morning Lord. Each morning I bring my requests to you and wait expectantly." Friday... We have this hope of expectancy. Now David found a great way to start his day. He says in Psalm 5:1-3 (NLT), "O LORD, hear me as I pray." And that is a great place to start. It really is. Morning sunrise He goes on, "Listen to my cry for help, my King, my God, for I pray to no one but you." And that is so important. We don't try to pump ourselves up by ourself. No, we pray to no one but you, God, my LORD, my King. Now this relationship with God is so, so very important. And then David says, "Listen to my voice in the morning, LORD. Each morning I bring my requests to you" And that is so great. And then he says, "and wait expectantly." Yes, we have this hope of expectancy. We are experienced. That is what a relationship with God and a moment by moment connection does. It makes a difference in our daily wa...

Friday... Yes, we can know this to be true.

Psalm 12:6 (NLT), "The Lord's promises are pure, like silver refined in a furnace, purified seven times over." Friday... Yes, we can know this to be true. Maybe this is what you want to say in this day in which we live. Psalm 12:1-2 (MSG) says, "Quick, I need your helping hand! The last decent person just went down, all the friends I depend on gone. Everyone talks in lie language; lies slide off their oily lips. They doubletalk with forked tongues." Do you ever feel that way?" Have you found that to be true? Well David the writer of this Psalm continues and says in verse 6 something to encourage us, to lift us up, to give us hope. Psalm 12:6 (NLT) says, "The Lord's promises are pure, like silver refined in a furnace, purified seven times over." The Message Paraphrase says verses 6-8 this way, "God's words are pure words, pure silver words refined seven times in the fires of his word-kiln, pure on earth as well as in heaven, God, keep ...

Friday... So what is it that you really fear?

1 Corinthians 15:57 (NLT), "But thank God! He gives us victory over sin and death through our Lord Jesus Christ." Friday... So what is it that you really fear? Yes, fear holds us back. It seems to take hold of us so that we can't even really enjoy living. Now I have found that one of the best ways to handle fear is to solve the problem of what we fear. Let's say that death is what we really fear. Everyday we wake up afraid to get up because we are afraid to do anything because we are afraid to die. And that is so understandable. Now I have found the solution to fearing death. I have through faith taken care of my fear to die. 1 Corinthians 15:57 (NLT) says, "But thank God! He gives us victory over sin and death through our Lord Jesus Christ." Verse 22 (CEV) says, "Adam brought death to all of us, and Christ will bring life to all of us." Death was not God's plan. Adam was created for an eternal life but he and his partner, Eve blew it and sin a...
