Scripture for me today!

Psalm 34

1 I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
(Even when the economy stinks and you can't find gas)
2 My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.

3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together.

4 I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.
(Did you seek the Lord or the telephone to try to work it out yourselves...the verse before this one gives you an action with a friend. If you grab the phone magnify the Lord and exalt His name.)
5 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.

6 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.
Notice all the action words in this passage. There are easy 1-2-3- steps on how to live.
7 The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.
Hi guys glad you are here.
8 O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.
Do you really trust him?
9 O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.

10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any
good thing.
The things that you want are they good things or just things?
11 Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
See we don't have to try to figure it out on our own. He will teach us.
12 What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good?

13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
Ouch... this one is hard especially when that idiot on the interstate cuts you off.
14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
More good instruction that is easy to say your going to do and hard to actually do when there is conflict.
15 The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.
This makes it easier to know he is looking at us and hearing us when we cry.
16 The face of the LORD is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from
the earth.

17 The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.
Have you cried out to the Lord lately?
18 The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.
Is your heart broken or bitter? How is your spirit hard or contrite?
19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.
Whatever you are going through and it may be alot ...this scripture says the Lord will deliver you out of it all. The Word never says anything that is not true.
20 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.

21 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.

22 The LORD redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.


Where are you today? If you feel like life is out of control and there is nothing you can do about it reread this passage. Write down all the things you can do. Do them and then let God do what He does.

You can bless the Lord, keep praise in your mouth, make your boast in the Lord, magnify, exalt, seek, look to him, cry, fear him, taste, see, trust, fear him, seek, come, keep thy tongue from evil, lips from speaking guile, depart, do good, seek peace and pursue it, cry, and have a broken heart and contrite spirit.

And the Lord will hear, deliver from fears, hear, save from ALL troubles, encampeth around, deliver, will not let you want, see and hear you, come nigh, deliver, keepeth, and redeemeth.

So go on do your part and HE WILL DO HIS....he has to he said so. He does not lie...EVER!
