Simply Well Said

This morning as the light crept into the woods behind my house I read Psalm 53. It was a short chapter of scripture with only six verses. Yet in those six verses God says He looks down from heaven on those that do not seek Him. It is a fool that says there is no God. These same people oppose those that do seek God. This displeases God, so much that He says He will scatter their bones in front of us. I do not know how that reads to you, but that sounds like a bad day for them to me. Interestingly enough this scripture also says God will draw His people back to Him. He will lift them up and they will rejoice. That’s us! God will defeat our enemies, driving them away, and will raise us up, and we can rejoice in that deliverance! Praise God!

Prayer
Father, I ask today that You would scatter those that oppose us and drive them away. They are foolish to say that You do not exist. Show them just how wrong they are. I praise You and thank You for watching over those that call upon You, that name the name of Jesus, for You alone are God. In Jesus name. Amen.
