COME AND SEE THE WORKS OF GOD

Come and see the works of God; He is awesome in His doing toward the sons of men. He turned the sea into dry land; they went through the river on foot […] He rules by His power forever; His eyes observe the nations. (Psalm 66:5-7)

Our God is so amazing. His blessings toward us are tremendous! The Psalmist reminds us that our God is great toward us. His deeds are incomparable. As an example of His prowess, he recounts, “He turned the sea into dry land; they went through the river on foot.” 

Each of us has testimonies of the Lord’s protection and deliverance. We should remind ourselves how awesome and faithful He has been and is to us till this very day. In my life, I have had days when it seemed that there was no way out, and He made a way where there was no way. He has rescued me where there was no human solution. He is not only my Redeemer; He is also my Rescuer. He saved me from car wrecks, drownings, sicknesses, the plots of evil men, and so much more! I believe He has done the same for you.

We often hear much about what is going on in our nation as though we must take corrective action by taking up arms. I say “yes.” Let us take up arms, but let them be our Spiritual Armaments, “the weapons of our warfare which are not carnal or natural, but the ones that are mighty in God that pull down strongholds, casts down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of Christ” (I Corinthians 10:4-5).

What is your boast in the Lord? What has He done for you that will affect the lives of others? Do you say with your mouth and in your everyday life to those you encounter and interact with, “come and see the works of God” (in my life)? Each of us has something to say about the Lord.

The Psalmist says, “the Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want […] He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness […] (He) prepares a table before me in the presence of my enemies; (He) anoints my head with oil.”  He watches over us as tenderly as a shepherd watches over his own sheep.

What does your life say for the Lord? It says a lot! Meditate on His goodness toward you and exclaim it from the housetops.
