I will greatly praise the LORD with my mouth; yea,
I will praise him among the multitude.
Psalm 109:30 (KJV)
Throughout this psalm David is calling out to the Lord concerning the trouble his enemies are to him. He is pleading that “what comes around will come around.” That their actions will be put back on them. It would seem like today, that is how it feels. So much distortion of God’s truth. What the Lord calls sin, much of society calls it a lack of tolerance at best, but mainly Christians are full of hate and bigotry.
The Apostle Paul wrote, “they exchange the truth for a lie" (Romans 1:25). But David will not give in, and we shouldn’t either and remain silent. May we never let God’s Word be compromised, but like David remained confident to the truth and say, “I will greatly praise the LORD with my mouth, I will praise him among the multitude.”
Side Note from a year ago when this devo was first penned: (02/18/2023) Asbury College is once again amidst a revival birthed out of a chapel service. It has been going on for about 10 days.
Time will tell what will come of it. Many are traveling to “see” this movement of God that is happening. My prayer is that with this Sunday being Transfigure Sunday, those that are experiencing this worship, will not build tents but will listen to the Son. (Matthew 17:5).
"Lord, open your Word to me and then open me to your Word."
