Write Orderly Accounts!

Write Orderly Accounts!

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who write orderly accounts. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Luke 1:1-4 (ESV) tells us Luke’s motivation and his reason for writing his Gospel.

“Inasmuch as many have undertaken to compile a narrative of the things that have been accomplished among us, just as those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and ministers of the word have delivered them to us, it seemed good to me also, having followed all things closely for some time past, to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus, that you may have certainty concerning the things you have been taught.”

It is a powerful motivation that Luke wrote what he did, so Theophlus might have certainty.

Won’t you believe with all of your heart what Luke wrote about Jesus?

Established the Lord’s Throne?

Established the Lord’s Throne?

Who or what can bless the Lord? The answer is his whole creation.

Psalm 103:19-22 (ESV) is specific about the Lord being blessed.

“The Lord has established his throne in the heavens, and his kingdom rules over all.

Bless the Lord, O you his angels,
you mighty ones who do his word,
obeying the voice of his word!
Bless the Lord, all his hosts,
his ministers, who do his will!
Bless the Lord, all his works,
in all places of his dominion.
Bless the Lord, O my soul.”

If the angels, the mighty ones, those who obey the voice of his word, the host, the ministers, who do his will, and all his works bless him, are you ready to join them? Go ahead and say, “Bless the Lord, O my soul.”
