Psalm 99…Tuesday November 8th, 2011
OUR HEAVENLY FATHER IS JUST AND FAIR and CAN BE TRUSTED COMPLETELY
PRAISE GOD FOR HIS FAIRNESS and HOLINESS
The Lord reigns let the nations tremble
Great is the Lord in Zion
Let them praise your great and awesome name
Exalt the Lord our God and worship at his footstool
HE IS HOLY
Moses and Aaron wre among his priests
Samuel was among those who called on his name
They called on the Lord and he answered them
He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud
They kept his statutes and the decrees he gave them
O Lord our God you answered them
You were to Israel a forgiving God though you punished their misdeeds
Exalt the Lord our God and worship at his holy mountain for the Lord our God is holy
Psalm 99
God’s holiness is frightening for sinners but a wonderful comfort for believers.
God is morally perfect and is set apart from people and sin
He has no weaknesses or shortcomings
This is a frightening aspect for those who are not in a relationship with Christ
Ones inadequacies and evil are exposed by the light of God’s holiness
God cannot tolerate, ignore or excuse sin
For the believer who have Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior God’s holiness is a comfort because when we worship him we are lifted from the mire of sin.
As we so believe in Him and humble ourselves before him we become partakers of His holiness through the creative work of the Holy Spirit which Christ promised to all His followers
If God is your Father your words and your life will reflect that relationship
CALL and I WILL ANSWER
Jeremiah 33:3
BE STILL and KNOW THAT I AM GOD, saith the Lord
Psalm 46:10
Take time and so encounter His love and the benefits of His grace today
FAITHFUL is HE WHO HAS CALLED YOU so HE REACHES OUT TO FULFILL ALL THAT IS THE FATHER’S WILL AND PURPOSE ON YOUR BEHALF
Praise God for His love and faithfulness
