Psalm 89
Good morning brothers and sisters. I will still praise Him and worship Him even though I am broken. I am learning how much God can use the brokenness to heal and strengthen me. This really hurts but I know that I am not alone. I am getting more in tuned with God's voice. So I am thankful for the brokenness. No one said life was easy but with Jesus leading the way, it is joyous.
1- I will sing of the mercies of the Lord forever. With my mouth will I make known Your faithfulness to all generations.
2- For I have said, "Mercy shall be built up forever. Your faithfulness You shall establish in the very heavens."
3- I have made a covenant with My chosen, I have sworn to My servant David;
4- Your seed I will establish forever, and build up your throne to all generations. Selah.
5- And the heavens will praise Your wonders, O Lord, Your faithfulness also in the assembly of the saints.
6- For who in the heavens can be compared to the Lord? Who among the sons of the mighty can be likened to the Lord?
7- God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be held in reverence by all those around Him.
8- O Lord God of hosts, who is mighty like You, O Lord? Your faithfulness also surrounds You.
9- You rule the raging of the sea; when its waves rise , You still them.
10- You have broken Rahab in pieces, as one who is slain; You have scattered Your enemies with Your mighty arm.
11- The heavens are Yours, the earth also is Yours; the world and all its fullness, You have founded them.
12- The north and the south, You have created them; Tabor and Hermon rejoice in Your name.
13- You have a mighty arm; strong is Your hand, and high is Your right hand.
14- Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne; mercy and truth go before Your face.
15- Blessed are the people who know the joyful sound! They walk, O Lord, in the light of Your countenance.
16- In Your name they rejoice all day long. And in Your righteousness they are exalted.
17- For You are the glory of their strength, and in Your favor our horn is exalted.
18- For our shield belongs to the Lord; and our king to the Holy One of Israel.
19- Then You spoke in a vision to Your holy one, and said: "I have given help to one who is mighty; I have exalted one chosen from the people.
20- I have found My servant David with My holy oil I have anointed him,
21- With whom My hand shall be established; also My arm shall strengthen him.
22- The enemy shall not outwit him, nor the son of wickedness afflict him.
23- I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague those who hate him.
24- But My faithfulness and My mercy shall be with him. And in My name his horn shall be exalted.
25- He shall cry to Me, You are my Father, My God, and the rock of my salvation.
27- Also I will make him My firstborn, the highest of the kings of the earth.
28- My mercy I will keep for him forever, and My covenant shall stand firm with him.
29- His seed also I will make to endure forever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
30- If his sons forsake My law and do not walk in My judgments,
31- If they break My statutes and do not keep My commandments,
32- Then I will punish their transgression with the rod and their iniquity with stripes.
33- Nevertheless My lovingkindness I will not utterly take from him nor allow My faithfulness to fail.
34- My covenant I will not break nor alter the word that has gone out of My lips.
35- Once I have sworn by My holiness; I will not lie to David.
36- His seed shall endure forever and his throne as the sun before Me.
37- It shall be established forever like the moon, even like the faithful witness in the sky. Selah.
38- But You have cast off and abhorred. You have been furious with Your anointed.
39- You have renounced the covenant of Your servant; You have profaned his crown by casting it to the ground.
40- You have broken down all his hedges, You have brought his strongholds to ruin.
41- All who pass by the way plunder him, He isa reproach to his neighbors.
42- You have exalted the right hand of his adversaries; You have made all his enemies rejoice.
43- You have also turned back the edge of his sword, and have not sustained him in the battle.
44- You have made his glory cease, and cast his throne down to the ground.
45- The days of his youth You have shortened; You have covered him with shame. Selah.
46- How long, Lord? Will You hide Yourself forever? Will Your wrath burn like fire?
47- Remember how short my time is, for what futility have You created all the children of men?
48- What man can live and not see death? Can he deliver his life from the power of the grave? Selah.
49- Lord, where are Your former lovingkindness, which You sword to David in Your truth?
50- Remember, Lord, the reproach of Your servants. How I bear in my bosom the reproach of all the many peoples,
51- With which Your enemies have reproached, O Lord, with which they have reproached the footsteps of Your anointed.
52- Blessed be the Lord forevermore! Amen and Amen!
Rise up child of God, rise up! Have a blessed day!
