Scripture

Psalm 93

3 The seas have lifted up, O LORD,
the seas have lifted up their voice;
the seas have lifted up their pounding waves.
4 Mightier than the thunder of the great waters,
mightier than the breakers of the sea—
the LORD on high is mighty.

Observation

When Kathy and I served in Cancun, Mexico as missionaries I would travel every week over on a ferry to the island of Cozumel. There were times when it was so rough that I could look up at the top of the waves and they would be higher than the ferry. I was once out in the Gulf of Mexico at night and we were caught in a very bad thunderstorm. I do remember how scary it was and how dark it was and how big the waves were! I have been in some pretty rough water, but never where the waves reach 90 feet in height. When those waves come crashing down they can destroy anything that is unfortunate enough to be in their paths.

I remember watching the movie, The Perfect Storm, and just thinking, Wow! What an awesome God we serve! Mightier than the biggest wave, Mightier than the pounding waves, is the Lord on high. And with a single Word from his mouth he can instantly make a 90-foot wave be still and the water be instantly calm. He is mighty!


Application

Let’s take time to give Him praise today! No storm is mightier; no wave more powerful, our Lord on high is mighty!

Prayer

Heavenly Father, in the storm last night we experienced your mighty power. This morning as we heard a bird singing outside we were reminded of your great gentle love. You are an awesome Lord. You are Mighty. Worthy, Worthy, Worthy of our praise! Amen.
