Verse of the Day 9/28

Psalm 113:3-4 From sunrise brilliance to sunset beauty,
lift up his praise from dawn to dusk!
4 For he rules on high over the nations
with a glory that outshines even the heavens. The Passion Translation (TPT)

As I read today???s verses in my daily reading in the Psalms, the sky was just brightening and the sun was about to break forth. Sunrises and sunsets are some of the most beautiful times in God???s creation. There were thunderstorms last night but they have given way to a beautiful sunrise.

So it it in our lives, storms may come, but they won???t last. There will be another beautiful sunrise even if it is not today, they will come as will the beautiful sunsets. He rules on high over His creation and He rules over the nations.

There???s a lot of chaos in the world today, think of our politics right now. But God is over all of it. Step back, take a breath, take a look at His sunrise and sunsets, realize that He???s got this.

The sun comes up
It's a new day dawning
It's time to sing Your song again
Whatever may pass
And whatever lies before me
Let me be singing
When the evening comes

You're rich in love
And You're slow to anger
Your name is great
And Your heart is kind
For all Your goodness
I will keep on singing
Ten thousand reasons
For my heart to find

Bless the Lord oh my soul
Oh my soul
Worship His Holy name
Sing like never before
Oh my soul
I'll worship Your Holy name (Matt Redman)

Praise, O servants of the Lord,
Praise the name of the Lord!

From this time forth and forevermore!

His glory above the heavens.

The things that are in the heavens and in the earth?
