Shalom,

Psalm 111 is our Psalm for today in the Spoken Word Bible Reading Plan. As I do word studies, I love to read the same passages from different translations to get a bigger picture of what this Word is saying! Here is Psalm 111 from the Amplified Bible:

1 Praise the Lord! (Hallelujah!) I will praise and give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart in the council of the upright and in the congregation. 2 The works of the Lord are great, sought out by all those who have delight in them. 3 His work is honorable and glorious, and His righteousness endures forever. 4 He has made His wonderful works to be remembered; the Lord is gracious, merciful, and full of loving compassion. 5 He has given food and provision to those who reverently and worshipfully fear Him; He will remember His covenant forever and imprint it [on His mind]. 6 He has declared and shown to His people the power of His works in giving them the heritage of the nations [of Canaan]. 7 The works of His hands are [absolute] truth and justice [faithful and right]; and all His decrees and precepts are sure (fixed, established, and trustworthy). 8 They stand fast and are established forever and ever and are done in [absolute] truth and uprightness. 9 He has sent redemption to His people; He has commanded His covenant to be forever; holy is His name, inspiring awe, reverence, and godly fear. 10 The reverent fear and worship of the Lord is the beginning of Wisdom and skill [the preceding and the first essential, the prerequisite and the alphabet]; a good understanding, wisdom, and meaning have all those who do [the will of the Lord]. Their praise of Him endures forever.

 AMEN!  OUR God IS God! Make it a commitment to learn something new about Him and His Word every day! The more you get to know the God of the Bible, the better equipped you will be to stand against the attacks of the enemy and the world on what you believe! I want to share a song from Hillsong today that is inspired by Psalm 111 from the Message Bible! Here is that translation first:

111 Hallelujah! I give thanks to God with everything I've got — Wherever good

 people gather, and in the congregation.  2 God's works are so great, worth

A lifetime of study — endless enjoyment!  3 Splendor and beauty mark his craft;

His generosity never gives out.  4 His miracles are his memorial — This God of Grace,

 this God of Love.  5 He gave food to those who fear him,He remembered to keep

his ancient promise.  6 He proved to his people that he could do what he said:

Hand them the nations on a platter — a gift! 7 He manufactures truth and justice;

All his products are guaranteed to last —  8 Never out-of-date, never obsolete,

 rust-proof. All that he makes and does is honest and true: 9 He paid the ransom

for his people, He ordered his Covenant kept forever. He's so personal and holy,

worthy of our respect. 10 The good life begins in the fear of God — Do that and

 you'll know the blessing of God. His Hallelujah lasts forever!  THE Message Bible
