I've decided to give this blog thing another try. I'm not sure what all will be posted here, but I do intend to use this blog to share some of what I learn from my walk with Jesus with whoever may read this. Let me know your thoughts, and I would love to know how I can pray for you. Leave comments-I love comments! :-)
Tonight I wanted to post Psalm 67. It is a prayer that all people will know and praise God, who alone gives salvation through His son, Jesus Christ. It is an ancient prayer, but it is still so relevant today.
Psalm 67
May God be gracious to us and bless us and make his face shine upon us, that your ways may be known on earth, your salvation among all nations. May the peoples praise you, O God, may all the peoples praise you. May the nations be glad and sing for joy, for you rule the peoples justly and guide the nations of the earth. May the peoples praise you, O God, may all the peoples praise you. Then the land will yield its harvest, and God, our God, will bless us. God will bless us, and all the ends of the earth will fear him.
As I was reading this psalm tonight, another verse came to my mind. "For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea." (Habakkuk 2:14) This promise from the Lord is a great reassurance as I pray Psalm 67. Though the ways of God are not yet known in all the ends of the earth, the Lord has promised that He will be known by all peoples. Praise God!
