“Seek. Rejoice. Be Glad. Magnify.”

August 14, 2019

“Seek. Rejoice. Be Glad. Magnify.”

Blessings folk!

The Love of God!
God loves us.
We are to love Him.

Psa 70:4

Let all who seek You rejoice and be glad in You;
And let those who love Your salvation say continually,
“Let God be magnified.”

Seek Him!
Rejoice!
Be glad in Him!
Love His salvation!
Declare “let God be magnified!”

This is a strong verse of encouragement and exhortation.
Of joy.
Of love.

But, check the context of the entire Psalm…

Psa 70:1-5

For the choir director. A Psalm of David; for a memorial.
O God, hasten to deliver me;
O LORD, hasten to my help!

Let those be ashamed and humiliated
Who seek my life;
Let those be turned back and dishonored
Who delight in my hurt.

Let those be turned back because of their shame
Who say, “Aha, aha!”

Let all who seek You rejoice and be glad in You;
And let those who love Your salvation say continually,
“Let God be magnified.”

But I am afflicted and needy;
Hasten to me, O God!
You are my help and my deliverer;
O LORD, do not delay.

Not exactly the “feel” and context we might have expected?

We will continue…

For today…
Seek
Rejoice
Be glad
Love His salvation
Magnify the Lord
