GOD RULES ON EARTH(Psalm 47)

-
Psalm 47:2
 For the LORD most high [is] terrible; [he is] a great King over all the earth.

The book of Psalms is one part of scriptures that debunks the claim of the enemy to rule the earth. It is not his to take and neither at anytime was he given to rule the earth. The rulership and dominion of the earth was the Creator's, and He handed that right to man.

Genesis 1:26
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

 What the enemy does is to:

John 10:10
The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have [it] more abundantly.

It begins with "the lie", when you fall for it you begin to fall for other things too.

Thus we give praise to the Heavenly Father. Yes we are not ignorant of the devices of the enemy "we watch and pray", however and more importantly we must give glory to Him who owns where we occupy.

Psalm 47:1
 O clap your hands, all ye people; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.

Yes we know He is Love, however we must not dare Him, for He is great. Don't pray to see His wrath, never!

Psalm 47:2
For the LORD most high [is] terrible; [he is] a great King over all the earth.

I pity those humans(men and women), who have dared to take His place, making themselves God most likely because leadership fell into their hands.

Nebuchadnezzar learnt humility the hard way, he should be an example to everyone. Don't play God!

Psalm 47:6-7
Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises.
For God [is] the King of all the earth: sing ye praises with understanding.

We must praise Him with understanding, for if you get an understanding of God, you just praise Him better. He is Awesome Wonder.

This is why Paul prayed:

Ephesians 1:17
That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:

Whether man has believed or not God is God over all:

Psalm 47:8
God reigneth over the heathen: God sitteth upon the throne of his holiness.

May we not spend most of our time worrying about the enemy or the problems of this world. Let us use that energy to worship Him who made all and has the final say:

Psalm 47:9
The princes of the people are gathered together, [even] the people of the God of Abraham: for the shields of the earth [belong] unto God: he is greatly exalted.

Heavenly Father we give you all the glory, honour and praise. Be thou exalted Oh Lord, my lips will never cease to praise you. My deeds will cause many to praise you. Halleluyah

He calls us blessed.

Love

    John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that who so ever believes in him shall not die but havewho's eternal life.
    l,m still a sinner, and hope I still belive the truth to make it to heaven.

DO YOU STILL SEE?

Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry. It may have been easy when we first believed, to visualize the promises. We reach out with zeal, loving God, seeking to do exploits. That was when we first believed, just as Jesus said: John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." When we become born again we see God's kingdom, our spirit man is reborn and we count the flesh as nothing. Then time passes by, we are in the world, all its distractions, temptations, responsibilities, challenges and so on begin to reveal themselves. The question then is: * Can we still see heaven? John 3:3 * Are we still zealous? John 2:17 * Are we continuing in those things? Acts 2:42 * Are we walking in love? 1John 4:7 or Has the cares and worries of life and service ta

DO UNTO OTHERS . . .

Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. It is hypocritical of us to expect people to stand with us when we are experiencing challenges yet when we see others face their own challenges, we begin to imagine what they must have done wrong or maybe they annoyed God or did one evil or the other instead of reaching out to help as we would desire others to do for us. The same thing goes for prosperity, when the Lord opens a door for us and we have abundance of wealth or a breakthrough we expect others to rejoice with us, more so, some would even find it hard to give to others. What is our reaction when someone else gets this breakthrough, do we get suddenly suspicious without reason. Do we expect the person to reach out to us? It is better to stay on the side of encouragement than to sit as a judge or prosecutor. Jesus said, Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same

MY YEAR OF FULFILMENT

-
Psalms 57:2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. We just finished the book of 1Samuel, in this book we see the cry of Israel for a king and how God raised Saul to rule them. We also saw how Saul disobeyed God and lost kingship for himself and his generation. He did not stop there, he went on to seek for the death of David, whom he saw as the next heir of the throne. In chapter 31, the last chapter, we see how Saul and all his sons and men were killed, it was tragic, however it was as a sign of relief for David. We could go on counting all the struggles and difficulties we faced in the past year. No, we should not, we should begin to look at all the positives, remembering all the good things God has done for us. If He promised it, He will do it and that is what we hold onto as we go through this year. Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. This is the year of fulfilment, and
