We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

The Scripture is the library of the Holy Ghost; it is a pandect of divine knowledge, an exact model and platform of religion. The Scripture contains in it the credenda, “the things which we are to believe,” and the agenda, “the things which we are to practice.”
Thomas Watson

We put off all worry (Philippians 4:6) by bringing everything to God in prayer with a heart of thanksgiving. Could Paul have made his point any clearer? He uses three terms for the same activity in this verse: “Prayer,” “Supplication,” and “Requests made known to God.” Here is the solution to the sin we all struggle with: Be anxious for nothing, prayer about everything. Or put another way, instead of taking your troubling matters in your own impotent hands, place your matters in God’s omnipotent hands. Worry is a preoccupation with yourself. Prayer is a preoccupation with God. Which preoccupation will bring you the greatest joy (Philippians 4:4)? Which one will bring you the greatest peace (Philippians 4:7)?

8:1 Veisuunjohtajalle; veisataan kuin viininkorjuulaulu; Daavidin virsi.

8:2 Herra, meidän Herramme, kuinka korkea onkaan sinun nimesi kaikessa maassa, sinun, joka olet asettanut valtasuuruutesi taivaitten ylitse!

8:3 Lasten ja imeväisten suusta sinä perustit voiman vastustajaisi tähden, että kukistaisit vihollisen ja kostonhimoisen.

8:4 Kun minä katselen sinun taivastasi, sinun sormiesi tekoa, kuuta ja tähtiä, jotka sinä olet luonut,

8:5 niin mikä on ihminen, että sinä häntä muistat, tai ihmislapsi, että pidät hänestä huolen?

8:6 Ja kuitenkin sinä teit hänestä lähes jumal`olennon, sinä seppelöitsit hänet kunnialla ja kirkkaudella;

8:7 panit hänet hallitsemaan kättesi tekoja, asetit kaikki hänen jalkainsa alle:

8:8 lampaat ja karjan, ne kaikki, niin myös metsän eläimet,

8:9 taivaan linnut ja meren kalat ja kaiken, mikä meren polkuja kulkee. [8:10] Herra, meidän Herramme, kuinka korkea onkaan sinun nimesi kaikessa maassa!
