Thankful for Jehovah Tsuri

Nov20

Jehovah Tsuri: the Lord my Rock

One of my most favorite passages of scripture is Exodus 33. It is there that Moses asks to see God’s glory. God agrees to let Moses see Him hindsight, for God’s glory is too immense for any mortal to see His full glory. Moses is placed in the cleft of the rock. As God passes by He places His hand over the opening until Moses is safe to look.

Then the Lord said, “Behold, there is a place by Me, and you shall stand there on the rock; and it will come about, while My glory is passing by, that I will put you in the cleft of the rock and cover you with My hand until I have passed by.
Exodus 33:21-22 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/exo.33.21-22.NASB1995

God protected Moses in the rock. If God can protect in the rock, He can certainly protect as the rock.

The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge; My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.
Psalms 18:2 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.18.2.NASB1995

There is no one holy like the Lord, Indeed, there is no one besides You, Nor is there any rock like our God.
1 Samuel 2:2 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/1sa.2.2.NASB1995

He said, “The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold and my refuge; My savior, You save me from violence.
2 Samuel 22:2-3 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/2sa.22.2-3.NASB1995

For who is God, besides the Lord? And who is a rock, besides our God?
2 Samuel 22:32 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/2sa.22.32.NASB1995

For You are my rock and my fortress; For Your name’s sake You will lead me and guide me.
Psalms 31:3 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.31.3.NASB1995

On God my salvation and my glory rest; The rock of my strength, my refuge is in God.
Psalms 62:7 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.62.7.NASB1995

Your Typical Day?

Oct23

Blessed and happy are the people who know the joyful sound [of the trumpet’s blast]!
They walk, O Lord, in the light and favor of Your countenance!

In Your name they rejoice all the day,
And in Your righteousness they are exalted.

For You are the glory of their strength [their proud adornment],
And by Your favor our horn is exalted.
Psalms 89:15-17 Amplified Bible

Call Upon the Lord

Psalms 116:1-2 NASB1995

🙏O my God, incline Your ear and hear!¹
I have called upon You, for You will answer me, O God; Incline Your ear to me, hear my speech.²
Incline Your ear to me, rescue me quickly; Be to me a rock of strength, A stronghold to save me.³
I am not presenting my supplications before You on account of any merit of my own (my righteousness), but on account of Your great compassion.¹
But certainly God has heard; He has given heed to the voice of my prayer.⁴
I waited patiently for the Lord; And He inclined to me and heard my cry.⁵
Thank You, God. Amen

Joyful Faith?

Aug19

Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials,
knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.
And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
James 1:2-4 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/jas.1.2-4.NASB1995

who by faith conquered kingdoms, performed acts of righteousness, obtained promises, shut the mouths of lions, quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, from weakness were made strong, became mighty in war, put foreign armies to flight.
Women received back their dead by resurrection; and others were tortured, not accepting their release, so that they might obtain a better resurrection; and others experienced mockings and scourgings, yes, also chains and imprisonment.
They were stoned, they were sawn in two, they were tempted, they were put to death with the sword; they went about in sheepskins, in goatskins, being destitute, afflicted, ill-treated (men of whom the world was not worthy), wandering in deserts and mountains and caves and holes in the ground.
And all these, having gained approval through their faith, did not receive what was promised, because God had provided something better for us, so that apart from us they would not be made perfect.
Hebrews 11:33-40 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/heb.11.33-40.NASB1995


How is your faith in God?

Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Christ’s sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong.
2 Corinthians 12:10 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/2co.12.10.NASB1995

“The Lord is my portion,” says my soul, “Therefore I have hope in Him.”
Lamentations 3:24 NASB1995‬

A child of God has been allotted, with all God’s children, a portion of God. An invitation to be a part of the whole of God. One with God in fellowship and the work of God.

What a tremendous gift God has given us, so don’t give up hope.

The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and my cup; You support my lot.
