Judge the Earth?

Judge the Earth?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know you come to judge the earth. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Psalm 96:11-13 (ESV) makes reference to the heavens being glad, the earth rejoicing, the sea roaring, the field exulting, and the forest singing for joy.

“Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice;
let the sea roar, and all that fills it;
let the field exult, and everything in it!
Then shall all the trees of the forest sing for joy
before the Lord, for he comes,
for he comes to judge the earth.
He will judge the world in righteousness,
and the peoples in his faithfulness.”

Take in the scope of this portion of Scripture. The Lord will be exulted, creation will cry out, and the Lord will judge the world in righteousness.

Does the Lord Reign?

Does the Lord Reign?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know the Lord reigns. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Not everyone has experienced a flood, yet many can relate to being near a seashore and listening to the roar. When the rushing water of a fast-moving river crashes into rocks, it has a roar of its own. Psalm 93: 1-5 (ESV) affirms the Lord reigns and the floods lift up their voice.

“The Lord reigns; he is robed in majesty;
the Lord is robed; he has put on strength as his belt.
Yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved.
Your throne is established from of old;
you are from everlasting.

The floods have lifted up, O Lord,
the floods have lifted up their voice;
the floods lift up their roaring.
Mightier than the thunders of many waters,
mightier than the waves of the sea,
the Lord on high is mighty!

Your decrees are very trustworthy;
holiness befits your house,
O Lord, forevermore.”

The Lord is mightier than the thunders of many waters. Ponder the wonders of creation. God reigns over it all. Does the Lord reign in your life? Do you count his decrees very trustworthy? Ask him to reveal himself. If you know he reigns, praise him.
