PROMISE #153 - JUNE 2
Promise #153:
My righteousness towers like the mountains and My justice goes deep as the sea.
Psalm 36:6 (WEB)
Your righteousness is like the mountains of God.
Your judgments are like a great deep.
Yahweh, you preserve man and animal.
All creation is continually speaking of our Father's kindness. In today's promise, King David proclaims that the righteousness of our God rises like the majestic mountains of the earth, and His justice reaches as deep as the deepest part of the sea.
In Psalm 103:11-12, David continues this comparison when he declares... 11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him; 12 as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us. (ESV)
If we seek it, every aspect of nature helps us understand the greatness of our God. The mountains proclaim His righteousness, the seas declare His justice. The birds and the flowers illustrate His daily provision. Thunder and lightning reveal His majesty. May each of us hear God speaking in all that surrounds us in this magnificent world we inhabit.
As Jesus told us in Matthew 6:26... Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? (ESV) All of creation bears witness to the amazing love of our Heavenly Dad. May we freshly see His goodness today as we appreciate all that He has created.
