Psalm 33 (32) The Grail Translation
6 the word of the LORD is faithful
By God's word the heavens were made.
By the breath of his mouth all the stars.
9 God spoke ; it came to be.
God commanded; it sprang into being
11 The counsel of the LORD stands forever
The plans of God's heart from age to age
21 Our hearts find joy in the Lord
We trust in God's holy name.
The "Word of God" is the will or purpose or plan of God.
The scriptures are "The word of God"
and Jesus is the "Word of God"
Reading Psalm 33 , we are reminded of
the creative power of the word of God .
God's spoken word brings galaxies into being.
The will, purpose and plan of God, stands from age to age.
We can trust His authority and power, because his will for us
is wholesome, caring, and full of sacrificial love !
Psalm 33:10
The LORD brings the counsel of the nations to nothing
He makes the plans of the people to no effect
Psalm 33:11
The counsel of the LORD stands forever
The plans of His heart to all generations.
Down the centuries, whole communities of people have laboured
in obedience to their national leaders, building what was to become
...famous ruins.
The Teotihuacan in Mexico, Pompeii in Italy, The Acropolis in Greece
Machn Picchu inPeru, The Pyramids of Giza and Carthage in Tunisia.
As Robert Burns pointed out "the best laid plans of mice and men
gang oft a-gley...often come to nothing.
But those in the counsel of the Lord are themselves added
Isaiah 28:16 ... to a precious cornerstone of sure foundation.
Ephesians 3:20-22 .....built on the foundations of the apostles
and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone
21, In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become
a holy temple of the Lord. 22 And in him you too are being built
together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit.
No wonder the people of God, come to trust in God's Holy Name.
In His power and authority, the plans of God's heart are established
and come to fruition from age to age.
Psalm 33 encourages us not to take our own counsel
but to accept the counsel of God.
Our God is still called Wonderful Counselor and has never stopped being
our Wonderful counselor.
The church is most alive today where He is in practice
The wonderful counselor of His people.
