Good morning everyone. After spending much time in the word this morning the Lord has laid on my heart Psalm 34. In the Good News Bible the title is “In Praise of God‘s Goodness“ and in the Amplified Study Bible it is entitled, “The Lord, A Provider and One Who Rescues Me.“
Today I would like you all to take your Bible and read through Psalm 34. Spend some time in studying this Psalm and let it encourage and enlighten you.
In this psalm we see praising, answered prayer, God saves those who are in trouble, He guards those who reverence Him (worship and obey Him,) provides for those who obey him, directs us from evil, teaches us to do good and be righteous, is near to those who are discouraged, saves the lost, restores hope to the hopeless, redeems us, and those who seek refuge find it in the Lord. This psalm is full of goodness so please open your bible today and spend some time with your Provider, the One who rescues you.
Enjoy your day and share the good news with everyone you meet.
