The Psalmist in Psalms 2 understood that the wrath of God was kindled but for a little while. This verse, "The LORD is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love" is repeatedly found in Psalm 103:8, Numbers 14:18, Psalm 145:8, Exodus 34:6, Nehemiah 9:31, Joel 2:13 and Psalm 86:5,15. We then can take comfort that God is always compassionate and gracious. He is wanting and longing to reach out to us. We are to do what the Psalmist in Psalm 2:1 did that is just to believe in Him and not to be bitter with Him when things do not turn out the ways we expect. His ways and His thoughts are higher than our ways and our thoughts. Read Isaiah 55:8,9.
Day 190 - Enjoy God! Read Psalm 148; Proverbs 7:4-6; Revelation 9; 2 Samuel 21-22 2 Samuel 22 v30 - By God, I can run against a troop and by my God, I can leap over a wall v33 - God is my strength and power! He makes my way perfect! Reading the above verses warmed my heart as I recalled the sweet victory I had as I trusted God when He assured me exactly with the above verses way back in 1994 when I did my Certificate of Legal Practice (CLP). It was the first day of exam and my Quiet Time for that day turned out to be reading the above verses. What a joy! What an assurance! I knew by God and with God, I could leap over CLP examination and would cross over the challenge and would pass to do my chambering. True enough, I passed and started my chambering in 1995. All glory to God! Hence, how important for us to keep reading God's Words as our loving Heavenly Father is so eager to speak and communicate with us. Please do run to Him, embrace and enjoy the sweet communion and taste...
