GOD’S WORD FOR YOU ACTS 7:54-56 In larger herds of sheep, some rams known as wethers become dominant leaders as they grow older. They confidently lead the flock out to pastures that may be very far from home. Shepherds often put a bell around the neck of one or more of these wethers, which are […]

God’s Word for You – Acts 7:44-47 A dwelling place for God
GOD’S WORD FOR YOU ACTS 7:44-47 We return to Stephen’s apology or defense of his Christian faith before the Jewish Sanhedrin. 44 “Our fathers had the tent of testimony in the desert. It was made exactly as he who spoke to Moses directed him to make it, just like the model that he had seen. […]
God’s Word for You – Psalm 103:19-22 Bless the LORD, O my soul
GOD’S WORD FOR YOU PSALM 103:19-22 19 The LORD has established his throne in heaven, and his kingdom rules over all. This isn’t the only time the Lord is depicted as sitting on his throne in heaven (cp. 2 Chronicles 18:18; Psalm 11:4; Isaiah 6:1; Lamentations 5:19; Revelation 7:10), and it is so […]
God’s Word for You – Psalm 103:17-18 From everlasting to everlasting
GOD’S WORD FOR YOU PSALM 103:17-18 17 But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear him, and his righteousness is for their children’s children, 18 to those who keep his covenant and remember his precepts by doing them. Once again David seems to be thinking […]
God’s Word for You – Psalm 103:13-16 The Lord has compassion
GOD’S WORD FOR YOU PSALM 103:13-16 13 As a father has compassion for his children, so the LORD has compassion for those who fear him. 14 He knows how we were formed; he remembers that we are dust. David was thinking of the words of Moses in these two verses. At […]

GOD’S WORD FOR YOU PSALM 103:11-12 11 For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward those who fear him. 12 As far as the east is from the west, that is how far he removes our rebellious sins from us. For man, the insurmountable […]

GOD’S WORD FOR YOU PSALM 103:6-10 6 The LORD works righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed. 7 He made known his ways to Moses, his acts to the children of Israel. David takes us back in time more than four hundred years, from his lifetime back to the days of Moses. […]
God’s Word for You – Psalm 103:1-5 Bless the LORD
GOD’S WORD FOR YOU PSALM 103: 1-5 Psalms 103 and 104 are a pair, connected by the phrase, “Bless the LORD, O my soul.” They also place our worship of God in an order which surprises some, but which makes perfect sense to a believer: Psalm 103 praises God for his forgiveness; Psalm 104 praises […]
God’s Word for You – Psalm 131:1-3 Like a child that was just nursed
GOD’S WORD FOR YOU PSALM 131:1-3 A song of ascents. Of David. A baby has just finished feeding and is sleeping quietly on its mother’s breast. This is a picture of serene peace that is unmistakable, and transfers without explanation into any and every language. Such is the peace David feels in his soul because, […]
God’s Word for You – Acts 7:39-43 they made a calf-god
GOD’S WORD FOR YOU ACTS 7:39-43 39 Our fathers, however, refused to obey him. Instead, they rejected him and in their hearts they turned back toward Egypt. 40 They told Aaron, ‘Make gods for us who will go before us. As for this man Moses who led us out of the land of Egypt—we do […]
