Pastor Jack's Thoughts October 5, 2009 Psalm 90

PASTOR JACK'S THOUGHTS    OCTOBER 5, 2009

This week, I would like to encourage you to think about Psalm 90.  It was written by Moses, a great man of God. This is the only Psalm that Moses wrote.  There is a profound outline in this Psalm that is well worth thinking about. It goes like this:

        GOD IS OUR GREAT AND MIGHTY GOD    ( Psalm 90  V. 1-2)
        

       YOUR LIFE IS SHORT SO YOU MUST LIVE YOUR LIFE WELL    (V. 3-6, 9,10)


        DON'T SIN BECAUSE SIN IS SERIOUS BUSINESS TO YOU AND TO GOD     
        (V. 7-11)
       
       WE NEED GOD'S WISDOM AND SHOULD ASK HIM FOR A HEART OF WISDOM     
       (V. 12)


         GOD PROMISES THAT HIS MERCY IS AVAILABLE TO US AND WE SHOULD   
         ASK FOR IT     (V. 13-16)
      
         THE BEAUTY OF THE LORD WILL ESTABLISH THE 'WORK OF YOUR HANDS'  
         (YOUR DAILY ACTIVITIES)  (V. 17)

I have heard that Billy Graham reads a Psalm a day and a chapter in Proverbs every day along with his daily devotions.  Try it!  It will bless your life.  The Psalms are rich and will inspire you and Proverbs gives you instruction and wisdom.  God's Word is 'soul food' and will give us spiritual nourishment throughout our day.

God bless you this week!
Pastor Jack
