TODAY’S VERSE
The Lord lives! Praise to my Rock! May the God of my salvation be exalted!
Psalms 18:46 (NLT)
TODAY’S THOUGHT
What an excellent proclamation. What a felt reality. I can hear David proclaiming, “The Lord Lives!” And why not? He had spent His whole life trusting God. He trusted God when a bear and wild animals attacked him as a shepherd. He trusted God when he slew Goliath. He trusted God when being pursued by Saul. God delivered from them all, so he starts this Psalm by saying, “I love you, Lord!” He then gives the reason for his exuberance. He writes, “The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my Savior; my God is my rock, in whom I find protection. He is my shield, the power that saves me, and my place of safety.” His proclamation was similar to Peter’s revelation when Jesus asked Peter, “What about you? Who do you say I am?” Peter answered Jesus, saying, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” Our God is alive. Christ rose from the dead. Let it stir your soul! A famous hymn says it best, “I serve a risen Savior; He’s in the world today. I know that He is risen no matter what man may say. I see His hand of mercy, I hear His voice of cheer, And just the time I need Him, He’s always near. He lives! He lives! Christ Jesus lives today! He walks with me and talks with me along life’s narrow way. He lives! He lives! Salvation to impart! You ask me how I know He lives? He lives within my heart!” Today, rejoice that the Lord lives!
TODAY’S PRAYER
Dear Jesus, how I praise You for Your resurrection. How I praise You that You are alive in my life. Thank You that I can put all my trust in You. I love You, my Lord and my Savior.
AMEN
