God's Awesome Power

Mediator of the New Covenant

Psalm 66:1-4 The Message 

66 1-4 All together now—applause for God!
    Sing songs to the tune of his glory,
    set glory to the rhythms of his praise.
Say of God, “We’ve never seen anything like him!”
    When your enemies see you in action,
    they slink off like scolded dogs.
The whole earth falls to its knees—
    it worships you, sings to you,
    can’t stop enjoying your name and fame.

For Reflection

We hear it.  But, do we believe it? Do we have the confidence in our belief to act on it fearlessly?

If your answers are "Yes," then you can rest in God.  Expect joy in that rest but, don't expect a lack of conflict in your life.  You still live in this world and turbulence is inevitable. Your faith will give you confidence and courage to face difficult times creatively. Remember, Paul was persecuted and imprisoned but never lost his rest in God. His challenges gave him opportunities to serve.  God will always present you with opportunities to serve.

Pray

Pray for the courage to follow your faith.  Pray so that you will know that you rest in God. Pray so that the Holy Spirit can lead and guide you as you accept the challenges of God's opportunities to serve.
