Through The Stars Fall . . .

 

Today's verse Psalm 102:25-26

     Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth:

      And the heavens are the work of thy hands.

     They shall perish, but thou shalt endure:

      Yea, all of them shall wax old like a garment;

      As a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed:

    The Title of this Psalm is: “A Prayer of the afflicted, when he is overwhelmed, and poureth out his complaint before the Lord.” Now, consider the words above and know them for true, for Peter tells us that the elements will melt with a fervent heat, and John tells us that the earth and the heaven fled from the Great White Throne, as no place was found for them, and both Isaiah and John tell us that there will be a new heaven and a new earth. What should we take from this, as the New Year starts? Are you afflicted? Are you overwhelmed? Know this, even as the Heavens and the Earth perish (should that not be overwhelming) God is in Control. What are the things you now face compared to that? Therefore, with all diligence seek out the Lord God, who wishes to be your God, and trust in him, for he is faithful, and those that are his because of Jesus Christ will come fourth as the song says, “Some through the fire, and some through the flood, but all through the blood.” And as another had said, “Do Right, though the stars fall, Do Right.” Will you trust the Lord your God Today? Will you trust him this year, whatever may come? Knowing that he is in control, will you trust him? Amen.

To God be the Glory
