Do You Recognize The Strength Of God?

 

Today's verse is Psalm 68:34-35

     Ascribe ye strength unto God:

      His excellency is over Israel,

      And his strength is in the clouds.

     O God, thou art terrible out of thy holy places:

      The God of Israel is he

      That giveth strength and power unto his people.

      Blessed be God.

    Initially, I considered using this verse from 2 Corinthians: Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. But I can at this time only list one of those promises. Yet, consider these verses from Psalms, adding the words with which Paul had admonished us. Do you ascribe strength to God? That is do you recognize the Power God has? Do you realize the terribleness of God, that is that God is worthy of our Fear, but yet, by that same fear we can access by his Spirit that same Power, that same Strength to overcome those things in us that displease him who loves us? Selah [Let the Dread of God motivate you to be found pleasing to him.] Amen.

To God be the Glory
