GOD THE ALMIGHTY (Psalm 76)

-
Psalms 76:4
You are glorious and more majestic than the everlasting mountains.

How great is our God the Almighty. The greatness of our Heavenly Father cannot be described in mere words, for no matter what we try to compare, it cannot be enough.

Psalm 76 sings of His power, and that side of Him that no one should desire to face, the one that faces His enemies.

Psalms 76:7-8(NLT)
No wonder you are greatly feared!
Who can stand before you when your anger explodes?
From heaven you sentenced your enemies; the earth trembled and stood silent before you.

Then the oppressed are set free:

Psalms 76:9
You stand up to judge those who do evil, O God, and to rescue the oppressed of the earth.

For even the wrath of men still bring Him praise, for when they gang in wrath against God's own, He shows His might and thus brings glory to Himself:

Psalm 76:10
 Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath shalt thou restrain.

For even those who destroy, do not understand that God’s sovereignty is over all:

Isaiah 10:5-7
“What sorrow awaits Assyria, the rod of my anger. I use it as a club to express my anger.
I am sending Assyria against a godless nation, against a people with whom I am angry.
Assyria will plunder them, trampling them like dirt beneath its feet.
But the king of Assyria will not understand that he is my tool; his mind does not work that way.
His plan is simply to destroy, to cut down nation after nation.

Woe to that king or leader who dare defiles the Almighty Father!

Psalm 76:12
He shall cut off the spirit of princes: [he is] terrible to the kings of the earth.

Don't take God for granted, don't vow to Him and then do not fulfil. He acknowledges our attempt to bring offerings, who else deserves worship but Him.

Psalm 76:11
Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God: let all that be round about him bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.

He is God. Period!

So that is why we stay in His good side displayed by the revelation of His Son, the Messiah. For what is our lot in the wrath of God. We dwell in His love.

Romans 8:39
Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Glory to God.

Do not fret because of evil people, worship the Heavenly Father, to whom be all glory, honour and praise for ever and ever. AMEN

He calls us blessed.

Love
@the watcher.

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
