Feb 20th: Ps 21-22 “I Know Whom I have Believed and He is Able ”
This hymn written in 1883 by Daniel Whittle reflects the
truth found in our reading today: ‘I know whom I have believed and am persuaded
that He is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day.’ King David long ago wrote praises to the Lord
about those truths.
Some thoughts to reflect upon today:
1.
Blessings and joy find their source in the Lord
2.
God’s lovingkindness provides a foundation of
trust and security
3.
God will search out and destroy our enemies
4.
God will not forsake those whom He has chosen (Heb
13:5)
5.
God is near even in desperate times to assist
and deliver
Now in turn we are to use those reflections to:
1.
Go and tell both within and without the assembly…
go and praise
2.
Remind others of Gods’ past, present and future
protection
3.
Remind others that if one seeks, one will find
(Prov 8:17)
4.
One day wall will see and praise God (Phil 2:10)
5.
Tell the next generation of God’s righteousness
(Ps 78:6)
May these two psalms be your joy and praise this day as you
walk through challenges or blessings.
