The Lord Rules Over The Floodwaters

The Lord
Rules
Over The Floodwaters
Scripture
Psalm 29
10 The Lord rules over the floodwaters.
The Lord reigns as king forever.
Observation

Psalm 29:10 caught my attention this morning!
No doubt the 40+ inches of rain in parts of Houston was the reason.
This passage is a reminder to me that no matter what our God still reigns. He rules over the floodwaters! I pray for protection for the people caught in rising water.
I pray that the people of Houston and all the people in the affected areas of the hurricane will be drawn to a closer relationship with God through this terrible and devastating storm.
Proverbs 10:25
When the storms of life come, the wicked are whirled away, but the godly have a lasting foundation.
Mark 4
39 When Jesus woke up, he rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Silence! Be still!” Suddenly the wind stopped, and there was a great calm. 40 Then he asked them, “Why are you afraid? Do you still have no faith?”
41 The disciples were absolutely terrified. “Who is this man?” they asked each other. “Even the wind and waves obey him!”


Application

I will trust God during the storms of life. How about you?

Prayer

Heavenly Father, I pray for the people in and around Houston that have been affected by this storm. May Your church be the salt and the light to these communities. I pray for the Southern Baptist Disaster Relief teams as they prepare to go and help. Give the leadership wisdom to know how to best help these people. You rule over these floodwaters and You will continue to reign as King forever!
