December 13, 2017-Wednesday-#564 Daily Morning Bible Reading and Meditation- Psalm 107 KJV
***Whoso is wise, and will observe these things , even they shall understand the lovingkindness of the Lord .***
[1] O give thanks unto the Lord , for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
[2] Let the redeemed of the Lord say so , whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;
[3] And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south.
[4] They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city to dwell in.
[5] Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.
[6] Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses.
[7] And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.
[8] Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
[40] He poureth contempt upon princes, and causeth them to wander in the wilderness, where there is no way.
[41] Yet setteth he the poor on high from affliction, and maketh him families like a flock.
[42] The righteous shall see it , and rejoice: and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.
[43] Whoso is wise, and will observe these things , even they shall understand the lovingkindness of the Lord .
Thoughts to ponder for today:
Whoso Is Wise, And Will Observe These Things
Observe:
: to watch carefully especially with attention to details or behavior for the purpose of arriving at a judgment.
: to make a scientific observation on or of .
: to come to realize or know especially through consideration of noted fact
The Psalmist pronouncement of GOD's lovingkindness in this psalm obviously addresses himself as the wise.
For he appeared to be well knowledgeable in the details of GOD's previous dealings to HIS chosen people. He has denoted all the events: the mighty works of how GOD provided, protected and the blessed pardons He did and gave to His people, so much more is the grievous castigations and the curse that has befallen unto them who disobeyed and rebelled against His chosen man Moses and Aaron, to whom GOD's commandments and precepts was given for His people to observe.
In the Psalmist repeated promptings to give thanks unto The LORD, for He is good; is comprehendible. That through his written psalm, his zealous, and unmovable faith appeared.
Hence is the pattern each of every believers of old times observed. For if they did not do so, they would have not suffered the cruel death, as they stood still and refused to deny their faith in The Given Savior; The LORD JESUS CHRIST, The Only Begotten of GOD The Father, who was rejected, reviled and refused to listen to by His very own people.
There are The Who, What, Why and When question everyone should observe to be wise:
Who:
Observe who is the true GOD. Observe His works through nature, through the people and teachings you are listening and reading. Read the Authorized King James Bible and compare its precepts to the teachings of your spiritual leaders. John 1:1-17, Romans 1
What:
Observe what is your spiritual life condition. If it is in accordance to the norms of this world, and that morality and genuine love seems to be misconceived and dislocated, then you do not know who really The True GOD is and His commandments. You should meditate upon these: Exodus 20:1-17, Deuteronomy 5:6-21, Deuteronomy 6:4-15, Romans 3:10,23, 6:23, Hebrews 9:27
Why:
Observe the reason why you should have a personal close relationship with GOD, why you should study His words, and why do you need to get saved. John 3:3-7, Romans 10:8-13, Revelations 31:8
When:
Observe when was the last time you give time to ponder about the life The LORD has given you. Know that you only have one life to live and that if you die today, no prayers of your love ones can change the destinations of your soul. For the bible is sure: there is only two destination where all souls has to spend their eternal life after death. There is only two: Heaven or Hell: Luke 16:19-31, Hebrews 9:27, Revelations 20:10-15
It was written even here in this Psalm:
[42] The righteous shall see it , and rejoice: and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.
[43] Whoso is wise, and will observe these things , even they shall understand the lovingkindness of the Lord .
GOD's lovingkindness awaits you each and every moment of your life.
You just have to decide now to:
Admit you are a sinner
Accept The LORD JESUS CHRIST Only as your personal Lord and Savior.
Abstain from all forms of manmade ideas of worship and all form of idolatries.
Attain unto GOD's wisdom by Learning His words, Living with it and Loving The LORD and His precepts.
Avail GOD's salvation in observing of HIS ways, and be blessed to be wise today!
Good morning!
Psalm 107:1-43 KJV
[1] O give thanks unto the Lord , for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. [2] Let the redeemed of the Lord say so , whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy; [3] And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south. [4] They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city to dwell in. [5] Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them. [6] Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses. [7] And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation. [8] Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men! [9] For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness. [10] Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron; [11] Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned the counsel of the most High: [12] Therefore he brought down their heart with labour; they fell down, and there was none to help. [13] Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses. [14] He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and brake their bands in sunder. [15] Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men! [16] For he hath broken the gates of brass, and cut the bars of iron in sunder. [17] Fools because of their transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted. [18] Their soul abhorreth all manner of meat; and they draw near unto the gates of death. [19] Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble, and he saveth them out of their distresses. [20] He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions. [21] Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men! [22] And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works with rejoicing. [23] They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters; [24] These see the works of the Lord , and his wonders in the deep. [25] For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof. [26] They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths: their soul is melted because of trouble. [27] They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits' end. [28] Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses. [29] He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still. [30] Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their desired haven. [31] Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men! [32] Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the assembly of the elders. [33] He turneth rivers into a wilderness, and the watersprings into dry ground; [34] A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein. [35] He turneth the wilderness into a standing water, and dry ground into watersprings. [36] And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a city for habitation; [37] And sow the fields, and plant vineyards, which may yield fruits of increase. [38] He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly; and suffereth not their cattle to decrease. [39] Again, they are minished and brought low through oppression, affliction, and sorrow. [40] He poureth contempt upon princes, and causeth them to wander in the wilderness, where there is no way. [41] Yet setteth he the poor on high from affliction, and maketh him families like a flock. [42] The righteous shall see it , and rejoice: and all iniquity shall stop her mouth. [43] Whoso is wise, and will observe these things , even they shall understand the lovingkindness of the Lord .
