Psalm 104 - 11.25.25

SCRIPTURE:  Psalm 104:33

“I will sing to the Lord all my life; I will sing praise to my God as long as I live. May my meditation be pleasing to Him, as I rejoice in the Lord.”

OBSERVATION:  The author of this psalm praised God for His greatness, splendor and majesty.  As the Creator and Sustainer of the earth, he praised God for the way He set it on its foundations, and for filling it with His goodness.

God makes springs pour water into the ravines; it flows between the mountains that give water to all the beasts of the field. He makes grass grow for the cattle, and plants for people to cultivate - bringing forth food from the earth and bread that sustains our hearts.  He made the seasons; and the sun knows when to go down!  He made all the creatures, and they all look to Him to give them their food at the proper time.  Without God’s breath in them, all creatures and people will die! 

APPLICATION:  When I read this portion of Scripture, it reminded me NOT to worry ABOUT ANYTHING because God is sovereign and very much in control over all He made!  God is giving us permission to give Him ALL our anxious thoughts, problems, worries, and frustrations in exchange for His peace - as long as we are willing to trust Him, and surrender our need to control over to Him! 

PRAYER:  Dear Heavenly Father, I praise You for Who You are, and for Your eternal power.  I thank You for all You have done to reveal Yourself to me through all You have made.  I pray I will always remember the wonderful works You have done, and what a trustworthy, faithful loving God You are!  I pray as I continue to observe Your powerful and creative hand in nature, that my trust will grow stronger and my faith will grow deeper.
