Perfect Purpose
The LORD will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O LORD, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands. (Psalm 138:8)
God has a purpose and a blue print for each of our lives.
We are not numbers in a calculator or a computer!
He has numbered all the hairs on our heads. Matt 10:30.
He knows our names.
God knows our needs today.
We are His personal concern, the work of His hands.
When does God perfect that which concerns us?
When can we expect Him to work in our lives?
When we praise Him.
Verse 1 says, “I will praise You with my whole heart.”
Verse 2 reads, “I will worship toward Your holy temple, and praise Your name.”
When we take time to worship and praise God, He can perfect that which concerns us.
But if we go our own way, we lose that special blessing from God.
When we pray to Him.
“In the day when I cried out, You answered me, and made me bold with strength in my
soul” v 3.
It doesn’t say God changed the outside circumstances immediately.
Instead, He changed the psalmist on the inside. When we worship and cry out to the Lord, He can work on our behalf.
When we proclaim Him.
“All the kings of the earth shall praise You, O Lord, when they hear the words of Your mouth. Yes, they shall sing of the ways of the Lord, for great is the glory of the Lord”
v 4, 5.
Exalting Him to others and glorifying His Holy Name among others should be a natural part of all our communications and conversations.
The God of the universe desires to work personally in your life.
When you worship the Lord by praying to Him, glorifying Him, witnessing for Him and submitting to Him, He works on your behalf.
If you need a reviving blessing today, turn to Him. He will grant it to you!
