I Have
Put My Hope
In His Word
Scripture
Psalm 130
5 I am counting on the Lord;
yes, I am counting on him.
I have put my hope in his word.
6 I long for the Lord
more than sentries long for the dawn,
yes, more than sentries long for the dawn.
Observation
It
is Monday! Yes, Already!
As
you face this week what are you putting your hope in? I can tell you what I am
going to do I am going to put my hope in God’s Word.
Why
would you and I go through this week not digging in and holding on to all of
God’s promises for us?
Crazy
as it seems many of the people that I love the most this week will act like God
does not even exist! Drama and pain will dominate their week and they will
wonder why life is so bad for them and why everything seems so hopeless?
If we would only read God’s Word then we would know that all we have to do is
put God first in our life and God will take care of us and He will meet
everyone of our needs. (Matthew 6:33)
Oh,
if we would just do like the Psalmist says to do in Psalm 130 and put our hope
in God’s Word.
Lets
take time this week to read God’s Word. Lets make a commitment to the Lord to
at least spend a few minutes everyday reading the Bible.
Don’t
know where to start? I suggest starting with the Gospel of John, then the maybe
the Gospel of Mark, and of course Philippians, and the Psalms.
Go to
BibleGateway.com and you will find plenty of devotionals and reading plans.
I
will enjoy my time in God’s word this week. How about you?
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, I pray for those who may be reading this blog this morning. Bless them
Lord. Put in his or her heart a desire to be in Your Word. I pray that Your
Word changes their lives as they open it up and read it. Give them a hunger for
Your Word. Give them a desire to read it every day. Show them how important
Your Word is for them. Give them the boldness to make a commitment to read Your
Word every day and as they do I pray that you shower them with Your blessings
and Your favor.
