“The LORD is king! Let the earth rejoice! Let the farthest islands be glad.
Clouds and darkness surround him. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
Fire goes forth before him and burns up all his foes.
His lightning flashes out across the world. The earth sees and trembles. The mountains melt like wax before the LORD, before the Lord of all the earth.
The heavens declare his righteousness; every nation sees his glory.
Those who worship idols are disgraced–all who brag about their worthless gods–for every god must bow to him.
Jerusalem has heard and rejoiced, and all the cities of Judah are glad because of your justice, LORD!
For you, O LORD, are most high over all the earth; you are exalted far above all gods.
You who love the LORD, hate evil!
He protects the lives of his godly people and rescues them from the power of the wicked. Light shines on the godly, and joy on those who do right.
May all who are godly be happy in the LORD and praise his holy name.”
Psalm 97 (NLT)
AMEN!!
I love reading your meditations on Monday morning. They do so encourage me, thanks:) It is so nice to be reminded that God is in control and that in Him there is nothing to fear, but rather He is our strength.
I need those reminders myself–that God is in control, even when it looks and feels like chaos at times!
Have a great day!
Exactly what I needed, Lisa! Thank you so much. I am worried about the world, not scared, just worried for the unsaved. Thanks for the reminder. You’re such an encourager and I appreciate you! Happy Monday, friend! 🙂
Happy Monday to you too!
I’m glad this was an encouragement for you today!
Amen.
