Greetings
"Unto Thee O Lord, I lift up my soul. O my God, I trust in Thee, let me not be ashamed; let not mine enemies triumph over me." (Psalm 25:1-2)
Once again we have a plea for deliverance and forgiveness...a common theme throughout the Psalms. Once again...we have a Psalm that we use to sing back in the days of the Jesus Movement.
Unto thee O Lord...do I lift up my soul
Unto thee O Lord...do I lift up my soul
O My God...I trust in thee
Let me not be ashamed...let not mine enemies triumph over me
NOTE: One group would sing the first part and then the other group would echo what was sung. Then the next verse would take another line from the Psalm
Show me Your ways...your ways O Lord
Show me Your ways...your ways O Lord
O My God...I trust in thee
Let me not be ashamed...let not mine enemies triumph over me
NOTE: Continue with adding lines always ending with O My God...I trust in thee...Let me not be ashamed...let not mine enemies triumph over me. Good times. For full effect...if you see me...ask me to sing it for you.
As I was reading this Psalm...I saw the letter S pop out at me.
Vs. 5 "Lead me in your truth and teach me. For You are the God of my SALVATION.
Vs. 7 "Do not remember the SINS of my youth nor my transgressions. According to your
mercy remember me for Your goodness sake, O Lord.
Vs. 8 "Good and upright is the Lord; therefore He teaches SINNERS in the way."
Vs. 14 "The SECRET of the Lord is with those who fear Him, and He will SHOW them His
covenant."
Vs. 18 "Look on my affliction and my pain, and forgive all my SINS."
Vs. 20 "Keep my SOUL, and deliver me; Let me knot be ashamed; for I put my trust in Thee."
The SECRET that He SHOWS the SINNERS because of their SINS...is the SALVATION of their SOULS...ultimately revealed in our SAVIOUR.
"This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you that God is light and in Him there is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST HIS SON...cleanses us from all SIN." (I John 1:5-7)
NOTE: Well...this is Psalm 25...only 125 more to go. I am curious if anyone is reading this blog. If you are reading this...please let me know by writing me at ruminator12@comcast.net and let me know. I hope you are being blessed, challenged, encouraged to press in to the Lord in the face of whatever you are going through...and PRAISING the Lord.
Thanx and a Tip O Da Hat to...all of you
