Trusted and Triumphant

Read:  Psalm 21 / Proverbs 10 / Job 29 / Revelation 14

 

Psalm 21:13 ~ Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: so will we sing and praise thy power.

Proverbs 10:29 ~ The way of the LORD is strength to the upright: but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.

Job 29:2,3 ~ In months past… God preserved me… by his light I walked through darkness.

Revelation 14:7 ~ Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.

 

We would be hopeless, helpless, halted

Without the strength of God’s salvation.

Let Christ be trusted and exalted,

Triumphant in each situation.

 

The Lord preserved us in the past,

And by His light He led the way,

So let us fear the Lord at last,

For He is faithful every day.

His Coming and His Commanding

Read:  Psalm 20 / Proverbs 9 / Job 28 / Revelation 13

 

Psalm 20:7 ~ Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.

Proverbs 9:10 ~ The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.

Job 28:28 ~ Unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.

Revelation 13:9 ~ If any man have an ear, let him hear.

 

Though some may be inclined to trust

The things that soon will pass away

(Like chariots that turn to dust),

It’s wise to fear the Lord today. 

 

The coming of the Lord draws near,

So let us walk with understanding. 

Let everyone with ears to hear

Obey what Jesus is commanding.

Right Way in the Revealed Word

Read:  Psalm 19 / Proverbs 8 / Job 27 / Revelation 12

 

Psalm 19:8,14 The statutes of the LORD are right… Let the words of my mouth… be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD. 

Proverbs 8:8,9 All the words of my mouth are… right.

Job 27:11 I will teach you by the hand of God: that which is with the Almighty will I not conceal.

Revelation 12:11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony.

 

In every single situation

The statutes of the Lord are right.

So therein let our meditation

And words be pleasing in His sight.

 

We speak the truth that God revealed

Which He commands us now to teach.

The words He gave are not concealed;

They are the Gospel that we preach.

Prophetic Plan

Read:  Psalm 18 / Proverbs 7 / Job 26 / Revelation 11

 

Psalm 18:1 ~ I will love thee, O LORD, my strength. The LORD is my rock, and my fortress… my high tower.

Proverbs 7:1 ~ My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee.

Job 26:13,14 ~ By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent. Lo, these are parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?

Revelation 11:17 ~ We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.

 

I love the Lord, and rightly so!

He is my Rock and my high Tower.

By His prophetic plan I know

His truth, His faithfulness, and power.

 

But who can understand His power

By which He garnished all creation?

Yet greater still, He planned the hour

That He would purchase our salvation!

His Wings and His Word

Read:  Psalm 17 / Proverbs 6 / Job 25 / Revelation 10

 

Psalm 17:8 ~ Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings,

Proverbs 6:20,22 ~ My son, keep thy father's commandment… When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee.

Job 25:4,6 ~ How then can man be justified with God?... A man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?

Revelation 10:11 ~ And he said… Thou must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.

I’m trusting Christ, the King of kings,

Who rescued me from condemnation.

I’m safely kept beneath His wings

And counseled by His conversation.

 

The Lord, by whom I’m justified,

Equips me to proclaim His Word

By showing what He prophesied,  

Just as He promised, has occurred.

Laughter turns to Lamentation

Read:  Psalm 16 / Proverbs 5 / Job 24 / Revelation 9

 

Psalm 16:4 ~ Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god.

Proverbs 5:7-9 ~ Hear me now therefore… lest thou give thine honor unto others, and thy years unto the cruel.

Job 24:25 ~ And if it be not so now, who will make me a liar, and make my speech nothing worth?

Revelation 9:21 ~ Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.

 

Their sorrows shall be multiplied

Who will not have the Savior rule.

How sadly this is verified

When years are given to the cruel.

 

If hearts surrender to the Lord, 

The Lord imparts to them salvation.

If God’s instruction is ignored,

Their laughter turns to lamentation.

Refines and Revives

Read:  Psalm 15 / Proverbs 4 / Job 23 / Revelation 8

 

Psalm 15:1,2 ~ LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill? He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.

Proverbs 4:11 ~ I have taught thee in the way of wisdom; I have led thee in right paths.

Job 23:10 ~ But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.

Revelation 8:3 ~ And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.

 

When with our Savior we abide,

We walk according to His way.

When on His pathway we are tried,

Our Lord refines us day by day.

 

Our prayers arise before His throne

As He inclines His ear to hear,

And in our trials He has shown

That He revives us and is near.
