PSALM 93 MY KING

The LORD reigns   Ps. 93
In Majesty God is powerfully enthroned.
Because of His rule ( as King )
the threat of enemies is put into perspective.
We get a lot more than a general notion of well being.
Our gracious ruler manages and reigns very well.
He provides for us, protects the weak,
and intervenes for the helpless.
It is He who;-
            who executes justice for the oppressed
            who gives food to the hungry                Ps 147:7
God does and so do the godly people.

There is a Jewish blessing for when you see anything of great beauty.
Praised are You, Adonai our God, Sovereign of the universe,
who has such beauty in Your World.

 Christians who have experienced the life changing power of God
in their own lives, can testify to the Sovereign power of the King of Kings,
our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
Psalm 93:1 ESV
The LORD reigns, he is robed in majesty; 
the LORD is robed; he has put on strength as his belt.
Psalm 43:7 ESV
For God is the King of all the earth
              sing praises with a psalm!
Psalm 92:2 ESV
Sing to the LORD, bless his name;
tell of his salvation from day to day.
Psalm 96:7 ESV
Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the peoples,
ascribe to the LORD glory and strength!

The people who can testify to the power of the living God
are the people who have experienced it personally
and are therefore motivated to tell of His salvation
from day to day.
I once was lost but now I'm found........
My chains fell off and now I'm free........
Into Thy freedom gladness and light......
                                                            Jesus, I come to Thee.
There is a past tense, present tense and future tense to our witness
because our King continues to reign in our hearts
and in our circumstances.
We are an up to date witness to the power of God
in our day..........
Hath not God chosen the poor of this world
rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom.          James 2:5 KJV

What we have heard and know,
what our ancestors have told us
we shall not conceal from their descendants,
but will tell to a generation still to come:     Psalm 78:3 NJB

Our ancestors, John Newton, Charles Wesley and William T.Sleeper
bear witness with us
to the sovereign power and majesty
of the Lord of lords and King of kings.
