Meditation Verse
Scripture. One thing have I desired of the Lord, that I will seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to enquire in His temple. Psalm 27:4 KJV
King David wrote this psalm.
In previous verses within this chapter David sings that the Lord is his Light and Salvation, and Strength therefore, of whom should he be afraid?
How true for us today!
We do not have to be afraid. Our God is Mighty to defend us and will vanquish all who desire to destroy us. Our only obligation is to be strong in faith and belief.
Never wave in this area of faith.
We stand in the Strength of Almighty God and all who oppose us, oppose Him.
He cannot be overcome, and in Him we are overcomers.
David says he just sings praises to the Lord and asks for God's Mercy in all his trials.
He also asks the Lord to teach him of His Ways.
Lastly David says he waits on the Lord.
He does not go out to fight battles unaided by the Lord.
He waits and prays, and praises and learns, gaining strength so that through him, God may be glorified, when the enemy sees what little David did to gain the victory.
God desires to do this for us today and has laid down this chapter of beautiful scriptures to teach us.
Prayer
Lord, thank You for the psalms of David which teach us so much about You. Help me to be faithful in waiting on You while I learn about You. Strengthen me through the Holy Spirit's teachings, to rest and wait in You. I wish to dwell in the House of the Lord all the days of this life to behold the Beauty of Who You are and then to pass seamlessly into the Kingdom to be welcomed by You, to sit at the Banquet prepared by You for Your people. Help me to serve You both here and in the hereafter. Prepare my soul and spirit I pray, in the Sons' Name. Amen.
