Psalm 40, HIS Thoughts for us!

Psa 40:1-3, … I WAITED PATIENTLY FOR THE LORD; AND HE INCLINED TO ME, AND HEARD MY CRY. HE ALSO BROUGHT ME UP OUT OF A HORRIBLE PIT, OUT OF THE MIRY CLAY, AND SET MY FEET UPON A ROCK, AND ESTABLISHED MY STEPS. He has put a new song in my mouth—Praise to our God; Many will see it and fear, And will trust in the LORD.

In times of trouble it’s hard, at least for me, to patiently wait on the LORD! I remember that we were bleeding out money and nothing coming in, BUT THEN HE OPENED A DOOR FOR ME! ALL I COULD DO IS PRAISE HIM! THAT WAS TWO YEARS AGO TODAY (OCT 1, 2018)! REMEMBER THE LORD KNOWS WHAT HE IS DOING AND IS NEVER LATE!

Psa 40:4, BLESSED IS THAT MAN WHO MAKES THE LORD HIS TRUST…

Psa 40:5, MANY, O LORD MY GOD, ARE YOUR WONDERFUL WORKS WHICH YOU HAVE DONE; AND YOUR THOUGHTS TOWARD US CANNOT BE RECOUNTED TO YOU IN ORDER; IF I WOULD DECLARE AND SPEAK OF THEM, THEY ARE MORE THAN CAN BE NUMBERED. 

The LORD is always working and is never sleeping on the job! HIS thoughts for you can’t be counted for HE is always thinking of you!

Jer 29:11, FOR I KNOW THE THOUGHTS THAT I THINK TOWARD YOU, says the LORD, THOUGHTS OF PEACE AND NOT OF EVIL, TO GIVE YOU A FUTURE AND A HOPE. 

We were at the beach recently, and while looking at the sand it brought this beautiful scripture to memory!

Psa 139:17-18, How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! HOW GREAT IS THE SUM OF THEM! IF I SHOULD COUNT THEM, THEY WOULD BE MORE IN NUMBER THAN THE SAND; When I awake, I am still with You.

The Creator of the universal, the Creator of everything seen and unseen knows your name! HE listens to your voice and looks upon you at every moment! HE is always thinking about you and has a plan for you! WOW!

Psa 40:17, But I am poor and needy; YET THE LORD THINKS UPON ME. You are my help and my deliverer; Do not delay, O my God. 

IT’S NOT WHAT WE HAVE TO OFFER HIM, BUT WHAT HE HAS TO OFFER US! HE IS LOVE, AND A FATHER TO THOSE THAT PLACE THEIR TRUST IN HIM! BLESSED ARE YOU IF YOU TRUST IN HIM!
