He is there

God is There

The psalmist writes,

"Where can I go from your Spirit?  

Where can I flee from Your presence?  

If I go up to the heavens, You are there;

 if I make my bed in the depth, You are there. 

 If I rise on the wings of the dawn, 

if I settle on the far side of the sea, 

even there 

Your hand will guide me.  

Your right hand will hold me fast." 

                                            Psalm 139:7-10.

Here is something we as believers must always remember. No matter where we are God is there for us. God is there to guide us in the best of times and in the worst of times.

Do you believe this?

Please think about it.

A Matter of Faith

A matter of Faith.
The Psalmist writes,
“The heavens declare the glory of God; 
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.” 
                                                       Psalm 19:1.
We may not be able to see God but that does not mean he does not exist. Astronomers have for a long time theorised that black holes exist yet they could not see them. They realized that black holes existed because of what they observed.
So it is with God. We only have to look around us to realize that this world, this universe we live in has to have a creator.
As I have said many times in my blogs over the years I cannot believe that the universe in which we live just formed from randomness. There has to be a creator behind it all.
We live in a part of the universe that has been called the “goldilocks zone”. An area of the universe that is just right for life as we know it to exist.
Whether there are more of these zones within our universe is irrelevant  to my belief in God.
The key to my believing in God is my faith.
Just like Albert Einstein and many other scientist went to the grave believing in their theories. So it is with believers in Christ Jesus.
Believers in Christ Jesus are willing to go to their graves believing they will meet God after they pass from this world.
Thus my question to you is do you believe in God?
The writer of the book of Hebrews states,
“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for
 and certain of what we do not see.”  
                                       Hebrews 11:1
“And without faith it is impossible to please God, 
because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists
 and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.” 
                                                                            Heb

Sing to the Lord

Sing to the Lord
The Psalmist writes,
“Sing to the LORD a new song;
 sing to the LORD, all the earth. 
Sing to the LORD, praise his name;
 proclaim his salvation day after day. 
Declare his glory among the nations, 
his marvelous deeds among all peoples. 
For great is the LORD and most worthy of praise;
 he is to be feared above all gods. 
For all the gods of the nations are idols, 
but the LORD made the heavens. 
Splendor and majesty are before him;
 strength and glory are in his sanctuary. 
Ascribe to the LORD, O families of nations,
 ascribe to the LORD glory and strength. 
Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name;
 bring an offering and come into his courts. 
Worship the LORD in the splendor of his holiness; 
tremble before him, all the earth. 
Say among the nations, “The LORD reigns.”
 The world is firmly established, it cannot be moved; 
he will judge the peoples with equity. 
Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad; 
let the sea resound, and all that is in it; 
let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them. 
Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy; 
they will sing before the LORD, for he comes, 
he comes to judge the earth. 
He will judge the world in righteousness and the peoples in his truth. 
                                                                                               Psalm 96:1-13.
Here the Psalmist calls on all believers to worship God. To give God praise. To ascribe to God what is due to Him.
He reminds them to proclaim His salvation day after day. To tell people about God and the eternal life He offers to all who would believe in Him.
He tells believers
“Say among the nations, “The LORD reigns.”
                                                            Psalm 96:10a
He calls to the nations of the world,   
“Ascribe to the LORD, O families of nations, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength. 
“Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name;
 bring an offering and come into his courts. 
Worship the LORD in the splendor of his holiness;
tremble before him, all the earth.” 
                                                      Psalm 96:8,9
Finally the Psalmist says of God,
“He will judge the world in righteousness 
and the peoples in his truth.”
                                                              Psalm 96:13b.
This is what the Psalmist states. It is up to you the reader whether you believe it or not.
Please think about it.
