4 Blessed is the man You choose,
And cause to approach You,
That he may dwell in Your courts.
We shall be satisfied with the goodness of Your house,
Of Your holy temple.
5 By awesome deeds in righteousness You will answer us,
O God of our salvation,
You who are the confidence of all the ends of the earth,
And of the far-off seas;
6 Who established the mountains by His strength,
Being clothed with power;
7 You who still the noise of the seas,
The noise of their waves,
And the tumult of the peoples.
8 They also who dwell in the farthest parts are afraid of Your signs;
You make the outgoings of the morning and evening rejoice.—Psalm 65:4-8
As I read David’s words here in Psalm 65, I stood amazed along with him…not that God had chosen David to be part of His family and abide in His house, but that He has chosen me, as well! I am also, one of the blessed! I am the one for which atonement has been provided. By the blood of His precious Son I am able to draw near to Him. I am the one who may dwell in His courts. I am the one who is and will be satisfied with His goodness both here on earth and forever in Heaven.
The God…
who is clothed with power
who established the mountains by His strength
who stills the tempest
who controls the wind and the waves,
who causes wars and tumult’s to cease.
who makes the outgoing of the mornings and evenings to rejoice
It is He who is my God! It is HE, the CONFIDENCE of all the earth, who answers me when I cry!
Beloved…Trust in the LORD forever, For in YAH, the LORD, is everlasting strength.
11 But let all those rejoice who put their trust in You;
Let them ever shout for joy, because You defend them;
Let those also who love Your name
Be joyful in You.
12 For You, O LORD, will bless the righteous;
With favor You will surround him as with a shield.—Psalm 5:11-12
3 Trust in the LORD, and do good;
Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness.
4 Delight yourself also in the LORD,
And He shall give you the desires of your heart.—Psalm 37:3-4
And whoever trusts in the LORD, happy is he.—Proverbs 16:20b
