Bible Scripture for Monday 23 May 2011

"Greetings Everyone in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"

Today's Blog Title: "A Song of Zion"
Today's Scripture Reading: Psalm 48:1-14
Today's Key Verse: Psalm 48:14  "For this God, Our God forever and ever; He will be our guide even to death."

Psalm 48 unites with Psalm's 46 and 47 to form three great praises to God for His kingship and His love for the holy city of Jerusalem.  The emphasis here on Jerusalem speaks of these palms as "Songs of Zion".  

This song calls for the people to offer reverent praise to their Lord.  It describes the glory of the city of Jerusalem which has been delivered by God from her enemies.  The city of God is praised, and her attackers are defeated.  Therefore, her people praise the Lord for His loving kindness.

This psalm has three parts: (1) a celebration of God's greatness in the holy city of Zion (verses 1-3); (2) a description of the gathering of the kings and the peoples to witness God's rule (verses 4-11); (3) a celebration of God's greatness in the holy city of Zion (verses 12-14).

Today's Hymn: "Love Lifted Me"

I was sinking  deep in sin, far from the peaceful shore
Very deeply stained within, sinking to raise no more;
But the master of the sea heard my depairing cry,
From the waters lifted me, now safe am I
Love lifted me! (even me), Love lifted me! (even me)
When nothing else could help, Love lifted me!

Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit  How thankful we are as your children that you protect us and five us the victory.  How we Thank You for the victory over sin, death and the grave because of what You Son Jesus Christ did on the Cross of Calvary when He shed His blood for our sins.  How thankful we are that You have lifted us from the miry of our sinful nature and that we are safe in your arms.
                                                                                                        Amen

Today's Bible Truth: "The city of Jerusalem was holy because of the presence of God in the temple"

Have a God Filled and Spirit Led Day.  Go in Peace and Serve the Lord with Gladness.  Love God More Today and always remember that when you have a spiritual dilemma in your life and you yell out, "I CAN'T",  God Whispers to you, "BUT I CAN".

Yours in Christ,
