Prophet

Our Daily Bread
It must have very, very difficult for a small town boy to become a prophet for the entire nation of Israel! There are examples of God using the least of these to do great things for him because they believed and were obedient.

 I can't imagine trying to be one of those guys (or gals) today! The media coverage would be suffocating! Fox News trying to find the flaws in your past. CNN trying to scoop everyone on everything from your diet to your bathroom tissue. Paul Harvey (is he still alive?) trying to tell the rest of the story. LOL Seriously, folks then and folks now usually focused on the unimportant stuff instead of the message God sent. Folks today would also refuse to follow God's instructions.

God doesn't call each of us to be a national prophet. We are called to love God and love others to the best of our abilities. Praise God!

Lord, please help us follow you so we can lead others to you!

Psalm Sunday
Can you believe we read ALL the psalms now!?! Almost three years in the process! Today is Psalm 150. May songs are based on this psalm. It is amazing!

We will start on the Proverbs next week (Sunday Wisdom). There aren't as many of those!

Psalm 150

Praise for God’s Surpassing Greatness

1 Praise the Lord!
Praise God in his sanctuary;
    praise him in his mighty firmament!
2 Praise him for his mighty deeds;
    praise him according to his surpassing greatness!
3 Praise him with trumpet sound;
    praise him with lute and harp!
4 Praise him with tambourine and dance;
    praise him with strings and pipe!
5 Praise him with clanging cymbals;
    praise him with loud clashing cymbals!
6 Let everything that breathes praise the Lord!
Praise the Lord!
