God’s Not Dead
For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities–his eternal power and divine nature–have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. (Romans 1:20)
God is All Holy
If only you would slay the wicked, O God! Away from me, you bloodthirsty men! They speak of you with evil intent; your adversaries misuse your name. (Psalm 139:19-20
David is so passionate about the things of God that he declares that even God’s enemies are his enemies. He wants nothing to do with those who stand against God or use His name in vain. He wants to align himself with people who take seriously who God is and give reverence to His name. David was simply pledging his loyalty to the Lord. He knew how awesome God was and he couldn’t bear the thought of someone misusing, misrepresenting, or mishandling the name of God.
Do you treat God like He is All-Holy? Do you have reverence for His name? Do you cringe when someone misuses the name of the Lord? Read more
God is Omnipotent
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. (Psalm 139:13)
I love the poetic words of David. He did not have the fancy things that we have now a days, yet he was mesmerized by the work of God. He knew that God created his inner heart, emotions, organs, desires, and unique talents. He saw God as the Great Designer of his life. “God knit him like a skilled artisan would weave a beautiful tapestry (Holman’s Commentary).” This same God knit the very fiber of your being. He placed in you unique talents and abilities. He gave you your smile. He made that precious heart of yours pump and provide oxygen to the rest of your body. He designed you and loved you enough to make you special. He has great things in store for you!
“I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.” (Psalm 139:14)
God is Omnipresent
Let’s take a look at Psalm 139:7-12 today. This part of the Psalm is declaring that God is omnipresent. He has the ability to be everywhere all at the time! There is simply nowhere to run from God. Let’s take a look at David’s thoughts on this and hear his heart towards God.
Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? (Psalm 139:7)
David asks a rhetorical question of God. He knows the answer, but he still asks. God can handle your questions. He can handle your doubts. He can handle your fears. Simply come to Him and ask Him what you may. Just make sure to brace yourself for His answer.
