SEPTEMBER 29 – HE

09/29              Psalm 68:17-18

Surrounded by unnumbered thousands of chariots, the Lord came from Mount Sinai into his sanctuary. 18 When you ascended to the heights, you led a crowd of captives. You received gifts from the people, even from those who rebelled against you. Now the Lord God will live among us there.

HE

He is the victor and will lead us in His triumph.  On that day every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that He is Lord of all.  Every one will see Him.  Everyone will confess that Jesus is Lord.  Today you are in Him and He is taking care of you.  Jesus is Lord right now and forever. 

 

 

SEPTEMBER 28 – JESUS

09/28              Psalm 68:13-16

Even those who lived among the sheepfolds found treasures— doves with wings of silver and feathers of gold. 14 The Almighty scattered the enemy kings like a blowing snowstorm on Mount Zalmon. 15 The mountains of Bashan are majestic, with many peaks stretching high into the sky. 16 Why do you look with envy, O rugged mountains, at Mount Zion, where God has chosen to live, where the Lord himself will live forever?

JESUS

Jesus is Lord and all of the universe will bow down before Him when He returns.  All things will be put before Him and He will be ruler of everything.  Jesus Lord of the Universe, Lord of all for He is God the Lord. 

 

 

SEPTEMBER 27 – BATTLE

BATTLE

The battle in your life belongs to the Lord.  Let Jesus go ahead of you.  He is already the victor.  Let Jesus lead you in the daily grind that you must deal with.  He will fight your battle and you will win.  Jesus knows where you are, what you are facing and what it will take for you to be victorious.  Jesus will deliver you. 

 

 

SEPTEMBER 26 – LEADS

09/26              Psalm 68:7-10

O God, when you led your people out from Egypt, when you marched through the dry wasteland, Interlude 8 the earth trembled, and the heavens poured down rain before you, the God of Sinai, before God, the God of Israel. 9 You sent abundant rain, O God, to refresh the weary land. 10 There your people finally settled, and with a bountiful harvest, O God, you provided for your needy people.

LEADS

The Lord led Israel and He will lead you.  Trust in the Lord and He will deliver you.  Trust in the Lord and see that He will be faithful.  Trust in the Lord Jesus for He cares for you. 

 

 

SEPTEMBER 25 – FATHER

09/25              Psalm 68:5-6

Father to the fatherless, defender of widows— this is God, whose dwelling is holy. 6 God places the lonely in families; he sets the prisoners free and gives them joy. But he makes the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land.

FATHER

The Lord is our Father.  He loves us and cares for us even when we feel desperately alone He is there.  Today be aware of His presence.  Jesus knows you and loves you.

PRAISE
PRAISE the Lord.  Praise Him in your victory and in your defeat.  Praise Him with every breath you have.  Praise the Lord.  Praise Him in every circumstance for even though we might not see it we are living in victory.  Praise the Lord. 

SEPTEMBER 23 – TRUST

09/23              Psalm 68:1-2

1 Rise up, O God, and scatter your enemies. Let those who hate God run for their lives. 2 Blow them away like smoke. Melt them like wax in a fire. Let the wicked perish in the presence of God.

TRUST

We face challenges every day of our life.  The Lord will go ahead of you and deal with those challenges.  He will equip you to stand, enable you to overcome or give you the grace you need to endure.  He will not leave you alone.  Trust the Lord and He will do it. 

 

 

SEPTEMBER 22 – LISTEN

09/22              2 Peter 1:20-21

Above all, you must realize that no prophecy in Scripture ever came from the prophet’s own understanding, 21 or from human initiative. No, those prophets were moved by the Holy Spirit, and they spoke from God.

LISTEN

Listen to the Lord Jesus.  He will speak to you.  He will do it in a way that is consistent with the Word, that comes from Him to you and it is a Word that will dynamically equip you to obey the Father.  Listen as you seek His face and He will guide you. 

 

 

SEPTEMBER 21 – WORD

09/21              2 Peter 1:18-19

We ourselves heard that voice from heaven when we were with him on the holy mountain. 19 Because of that experience, we have even greater confidence in the message proclaimed by the prophets. You must pay close attention to what they wrote, for their words are like a lamp shining in a dark place—until the Day dawns, and Christ the Morning Star shines in your hearts.

WORD

The Lord God has provided a written revelation for us to live life by and we should do our best to know it.  Read the Word.  Study the Word.  Pray God’s Word as you spend time with Him.
