Shalom,


Psalm 47 is a very vocal Psalm ! We are told 5 times to "Sing praises to God"! Why? Because He is an awesome King (verses 1-4), a triumphant King (verse 5), and the King of kings (verses 6-9)! In other words, He IS WORTHY! We have used a few different songs over the years that are taken from Psalm 47, but there were no videos available of those. Just sing Psalm 47 yourself and I'm sure at least one of those songs will come back to you! Just in case you need some motivation to do so, look at verses 8-9 to see just Who He is!


8 God reigns over the nations; God sits upon His holy throne. 9 The princes and nobles of the peoples are gathered together, a [united] people for the God of Abraham, for the shields of the earth belong to God; he is highly exalted.


AMEN! THIS is OUR GOD! (Hillsong)

In Titus Paul is writing a letter of encouragement and instruction to another young pastor whom he has mentored. He says this in verse 5:


5 For this reason I left you [behind] in Crete, that you might set right what was defective and finish what was left undone, and that you might appoint elders and set them over the churches (assemblies) in every city as I directed you.


Even though, like Timothy, Titus was a young man, the Lord (and Paul) trusted him to be able to carry out these instructions. Don't ever judge a minster of the Gospel, called by God, by their gender, age, appearance, or even experience! Remember that God likes to take "the foolish things of the world to confound the wise" (1 Corinthians 1:27-28)! Why? 1 Corinthians 1:29:


29 That no flesh should glory in His presence.


What God does through us has very little to do with US and EVERYTHING to do with HIM! AMEN!


Isaiah 7-8 reveal to us the fact that the political leaders of that time did NOT trust in the Lord!  Sound familiar? Time after time our Presidents and political leaders have called on the people of this nation to repent with fasting and prayer for the sin of forgetting that it is GOD alone to Whom we should turn and trust in! Right now, more than ever, our nation NEEDS the Lord, but this current president wants no part of it! Set yourself to fasting and prayer for the next elections so that we can return a person of Godly Wisdom, integrity and prayer to the highest office in this nation. God Himself ordained this nation and HE should have the say about who sits in that Oval Office! Don't you agree?


Shalom in Him!
