“Those who live at earth's farthest bounds are awed by your signs;

you make the gateways of the morning and the evening shout for joy.”

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭65:8‬ ‭

[wiirocku]

Psalm 65:11 (NLT) - You crown the year with a bountiful harvest; even the hard pathways overflow with abundance.

[walkswithmyfather]

‭‭Psalm 119:65-72 (NKJV‬‬). “You have dealt well with Your servant, O Lord, according to Your word. Teach me good judgment and knowledge, For I believe Your commandments. Before I was afflicted I went astray, But now I keep Your word. You are good, and do good; Teach me Your statutes. The proud have forged a lie against me, But I will keep Your precepts with my whole heart. Their heart is as fat as grease, But I delight in Your law. It is good for me that I have been afflicted, That I may learn Your statutes. The law of Your mouth is better to me Than thousands of coins of gold and silver.”

“The Field Trip of Trials” by In Touch Ministries:

“While not pleasant, trials give us the opportunity to connect with God intimately.”

“When we were still in school, most of us probably preferred the hands-on learning of field trips to classroom lectures. A lot of adults, however, no doubt wish they could absorb life lessons from a book instead of from their own painful mistakes. But the truth is, there are some things we learn best through experience.

Some trials are the result of sin and can play a big corrective role in our lives. God might use them to draw our attention to unhealthy habits, attitudes, or activities we have tolerated or overlooked. No matter how trivial we may think a sin is, it should have no place in a believer’s life.

Or it could be that God is showing us something we need to release to Him—perhaps a relationship, goal, or ambition. And sometimes He calls us to exercise self-control so that we can pursue Him to a greater degree.

If we never had any troubles, we would continue in what’s comfortable, easy, and enjoyable but might end up missing God’s best for our life. That’s why the psalmist said, “It is good for me that I was afflicted, so that I may learn Your statutes” (119:71). Any hardship that drives us to God and His Word is good for us. That’s because what we gain in knowing the Lord is worth so much more than all the wealth and fame the world can offer us.”

o hope of all the ends of the earth and it the seas that are far away

i have grown weary with my crying; my throat is inflamed; my eyes when failed from looking for God.

By awesome deeds You answer us with righteousness, O God of our salvation, the hope of all the ends of the earth and of the farthest seas.

Psalm 65:5

[coptorthodox]

You crown the year with Your goodness, And Your paths drip with abundance. Psalm 65:11

[officialyourdailyinspiration]

O God of Our Salvation

1 Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Sion: and unto thee shall the vow be performed.

2 O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come.

3 Iniquities prevail against me: as for our transgressions, thou shalt purge them away.

4 Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach unto thee, that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, even of thy holy temple.

5 By terrible things in righteousness wilt thou answer us, O God of our salvation; who art the confidence of all the ends of the earth, and of them that are afar off upon the sea:

6 Which by his strength setteth fast the mountains; being girded with power:

7 Which stilleth the noise of the seas, the noise of their waves, and the tumult of the people.

8 They also that dwell in the uttermost parts are afraid at thy tokens: thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice.

9 Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it: thou greatly enrichest it with the river of God, which is full of water: thou preparest them corn, when thou hast so provided for it.

10 Thou waterest the ridges thereof abundantly: thou settlest the furrows thereof: thou makest it soft with showers: thou blessest the springing thereof.

11 Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness.

12 They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness: and the little hills rejoice on every side.

13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing. — Psalm 65 | King James Version (KJV) The King James Version Bible is in the public domain Cross References: Genesis 1:5; Genesis 1:11; Genesis 2:5; Numbers 16:5; Deuteronomy 32:2; Deuteronomy 32:43; Job 36:28; Job 38:16; Psalm 2:8; Psalm 4:3; Psalm 22:27; Psalm 38:4; Psalm 45:4; Psalm 48:10; Psalm 50:14; Psalm 86:9; Psalm 93:1; Psalm 98:8; Psalm 145:21; Psalm 147:14; Isaiah 30:23; Isaiah 44:23; Amos 4:13; Matthew 8:26; Mark 4:39; Acts 14:17

What an Awesome God We Serve: Monday Devotional

Three of my favorite entities are mountains, oceans, and trees. I marvel at them because I know that only the Lord God Almighty can make them, and man cannot clone or duplicate them. Something is soul-affirming and healing about sitting and looking at the handiwork of our awesome and mighty God.When troubles assail me and seem insurmountable, I remember that I serve the one true God and that the…

PSALMS S.O.A.P. ~ PSALM 65

Wednesday, 10/18/23

SCRIPTURE:

Praise is rightfully Yours,  God, in Zion;  vows to You will be fulfilled.  All humanity will come to You,  the One Who hears prayer.  Iniquities overwhelm me;  only You can atone for our rebellions.  ~ Psalm 65:1-3 

OBSERVATION:

Praise IS rightfully His...

All humanity WILL come to Him...

He hears prayer - my prayer - beginning with my confessions and His praise...

My iniquities can - and sometimes do - overwhelm me - but He CANNOT be overwhelmed...

Only He can - does - atone - has atoned - for my rebellions - through Jesus...

APPLICATION:

Praise...

Come...

Pray...

PRAYER:

Awesome, hearing Father God - I am grateful for the atoning life of Jesus, through Whom I can stand before You in praise and confession of the rebellious selfishness that tends to overwhelm my desire to follow Your will in my own self-alleged strength... May Your Holy Spirit continue to return me to Your grace-filled will... In Jesus's Name, Father, and for the praise and honor that are so rightfully Yours... 

Rightfully and joyfully praising Him - gratefully for y'all...
