There are two important Truths that I want to look at in Psalm 138 today. We'll start with verses 1-2:
1 I will confess and praise You [O God] with my whole heart; before the gods will I sing praises to You. 2 I will worship toward Your holy temple and praise Your name for Your loving-kindness and for Your truth and faithfulness; for You have exalted above all else Your name and Your word and You have magnified Your word above all Your name!
OUR God is THE One, True, Most High, Living, Almighty God of all creation! There ARE no other "gods" who can stand before Him! He IS God, and there IS no other (Isaiah 45:5)! AMEN! We love Him, we praise Him, and we tell others about Him! We KNOW that Jesus was given the Name that is above EVERY name that is named (Philippians 2:9)! Verse 2 tells us that His Word is exalted by God the Father, even above His MOST HIGH Name! Make sure that YOU are giving the Word of God the #1 place of priority in your life! You WILL reap the results of THAT choice, for good OR evil! Make the WISE choice! Amen! Now I want to look at verse 8:
8 The Lord will perfect that which concerns me; Your mercy and loving-kindness, O Lord, endure forever—forsake not the works of Your own hands.
"Perfect" here is the Hebrew word "gamar", Which means: to end by completion; to fulfill; to accomplish. When WE get, and keep, ourselves in position for the God of the Bible to work HIS will in our lives, He will do it completely and will bring about His WILL and PLAN and PURPOSE! He desires, above all things, that we succeed in all that He has called us to (3 John 2). Give Him the opportunity to do this great work in, and through, YOU! There are GREAT rewards ahead for those who do! LET'S DO IT! Amen! Here is Hillsong Young and Free with "In Sync":
Shalom in Him!
