Job
33:4 from last weeks Message inspired me!
What an awesome thought: “The Spirit of God hath made me, and the
Breath of the Almighty hath given me life.” We don’t often think about the
breath we breathe, yet without it we do not have life. If we have difficultly breathing, then we are
mindful of how important it is to breath. The Lord has brought to mind – it is
His breath in us and we are motivated by His Spirit. Of course we are given a
‘free will’ so we can choose to obey God or to appease our fleshly ways. Let us meditate up this thought and realize
afresh that the Spirit of God gave ‘me’ this breath in the beginning of my life
for His purpose! Our God, Jehovah Compasses us throughout our life. This means He ‘surrounds’ us, He encircles
every moment of our life, even when we are lying down/sleeping. Another
meaning of Compass is cling. Jesus clings to us! We are what Jesus presents to
the Father. We are Jesus’ glory! Eph. 1:12 “...We should be to the Praise
of His Glory ...” 2 Thess. 1:12 “That
the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in Him ...” Another powerful Word from God is: Ps.100:3
“Know ye that the Lord He is God: it is He that hath made us, and not we
ourselves; we are His people, and the sheep of His pasture.” The Message today is from Psalm 139, and we
will explore the “Omniscient God!” meaning
a God of “Infinite awareness &
Understanding, possessed of complete Knowledge.” He is Omnipotent, unlimited power!
And He is Omnipresent, His presence
in all places at all times! Here’s something to think about: Vs 1 “O Lord
Thou has searched me, and known me.”
Sometimes we feel like ‘no one understands me – no one sees me – no one
cares for me. We feel isolated. If we are a Reader of God’s Word, this feeling
should be overtaken immediately with this Passage of Scripture for it details
just how much God knows about us. We
must rise to occasion and fill our heart and soul with His Word, for it is our
help in the time of trouble, it is our strength in weakness, and it is our
comfort in sorrow. Christianity has
become anemic and somewhat overpowered by the forces of darkness and negativity
until we don’t even recognize we have lost our positive awareness that is our
Faith. God tells us in this Chapter, even in darkness, there is Light about me.
Loving you, Pastor
