Title: A Prayer of Moses the Man of God.
Scripture: Psalm 91:1 – 16
God’s Message / God’s Promise / God’s Commands:
→ Psalm
90 seems like a continuation of Moses' prayer. In the previous chapter we
learned Moses a man of God who saw and witness God as the God of love and mercy
and God as the Judge. He is both love and Just! Moses spoke of
God's power, glory and honor and indicates his fear of the Lord. But in
chapter 91, amazingly, the same man who was in full reverence of God showed
full confidence and strength against his enemies, why? Because of his
confident in the Lord. It is somehow weird that the man who feared God
and in total humility before the Lord, spoke in such power and confidence
against his enemies. It can even sound ironic - that the previous
chapter, we see a man in total fear of God, in total humility and in total
acceptance of what is set to come or happen as according to the Lord; a man who
seemed to be without any control or power...and the next chapter that, we see a
total different man! A man of God in full power, confidence and assurance
that everything will go in a positive way! I thought of this and even
joke myself that Moses may have a split personality hehehe but in reality, man
is capable of many personalities... and we ought to choose how we respond to
every situation. We ought to be humble and in fear of the Lord but
courageous, brave, confident and assured of winning against our enemies - for
what reason? Because of God! Because He is our refuge! The real
question here is, are we able to identify our real enemy? Or we blindly
think that everything against us is our enemy? Well in a sense it is but if you
are walking the path you chose and not the path God has chosen for you, doesn't
it looks more like you're the enemy? That's why to be truly confident and
assured of victory is to dwell in the Lord; to push through the path He has chosen;
to give Him full control because only when God is directing our path and our
lives every day, can we truly be confident and speak in power against anything
that go against us!
Prayer:
Lord Jesus what a marvelous
message today. Lord, thank You for clarifying things as always.
Thank You because You made me see clearly every time I read Your word.
At first, I feel a little confuse but as I continue on, You always
enlighten me and point me into the right direction. Lord, help me to have
the same character and behavior as Moses did. Help me to learn to
surrender, to fear You and be humble, to learn to give You full control of my
life then I will speak and walk and act in full confidence and power in You
because I am assured that we are on the same path. Never allow me Lord to
lose my way from You. I need YOu more than ever now and for the rest of
my life. In Jesus' Name, Amen!
