Psalm 92:5 O Lord, how great are thy works! And thy thoughts are very deep.
Well a blessed Saturday morn to all you faithful believers, wherever you are! Or as 3 Canal would say; ‘Morning neighbour, morning!’ That means many of us have lived to see another day dawn, further meaning that the Good Lord is still in control from His throne in Heaven on high. And if we truly consider not only our blessings, but the make up of the entire world, (our bodies, nature and all its flora and fauna, the sea, the mountains) it’s self-sufficiency, yet it’s interdependence; in fact the great interconnection between all God’s creations, then we can’t help but end up astonished, and utter words of praise like Bruh David: ‘O Lord, how great are thy works!’ Oh Friends, the works of our Lord are indeed astonishing! How does the moon set and the sun rise on a regular 24 hour period, for eons eh? Who manipulates the seasons in the northern and southern climes? They come around like clockwork every year. Meanwhile that around the equator is kept fairly constant. Whose work is that eh? Who sets our hearts a beating in our mothers wombs, then keeps them pumping when we’ve broken the bond of that life giving umbilical cord? And have you ever really wondered about that 9 month gestation period, how it runs so smoothly, with us getting all the food and nutrients we need? Huge trees grow from little seeds planted in the dark cloister of the earth; flowers miles away from each other are pollinated so that they can grow and multiply. How is all that done, when there is no apparent entity that physically controls or does it? Oh my people, it’s all the work, the ingenious craftsmanship of our great and mighty God, Jehovah! As Bruh David rightly extols in an earlier song; ‘Many O Lord my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done.’ (Ps.40:5) They are so numerous and of such outstanding value that Bruh David declares; ‘A brutish (senseless) man knoweth not; neither doth a fool understand this.’ (Ps.92:6) The angels of heaven put it this way: ‘And they sang the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvelous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.’ (Rev.15:3) Now hear Jeremiah’s prayer of praise: ‘Great in counsel and mighty in work: for thine eyes are open upon all the ways of the sons of men: to give everyone according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.’ (Jer.32:19) The Lord said it through Isaiah: ‘For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.’ (Isa.55:9) Bruh David seconds that emotion: ‘And thy thoughts are very deep.’ That’s the best a human can do, since our intelligence is so inferior to His that we simply can’t fathom His thoughts and works. Isaiah explains it: ‘This also cometh from the Lord of hosts, which is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in working.’ (Isa.28:29) Bruh David hit the nail on the head with two passages. In the first, he declares; ‘and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.’ (Ps. 40:5) Then later on he says in amazement: ‘How precious also are thy thoughts unto me; O God! How great is the sum of them! If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand! When I awake, I am still with thee.’ (Ps. 139:17-18) Yes my people, all of us have much to be thankful for, especially Jesus dying for our sins, so let’s be grateful and show our appreciation nuh. That’s all our Lord wants. I like how Bruh David puts it: ‘When I awake, I am still with thee.’ It’s our God who keeps us safe in slumber and allows us to wake refreshed the next day. It’s long, but these words of Bruh Paul tie it all together nicely, and make a fitting end. ‘O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgements and his ways past finding out!’ (Rom.11:33) How true my Friends! Then as his wont, he takes different parts of scripture and puts them together. ‘For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor? or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again?’ (Rom.11:34-35) That’s a combination of Job, Jeremiah and Isaiah. They are all excellent questions, but the answer to them all is, NO ONE! For our God is Alpha and Omega; the First and the Last. And as Bruh Paul rightly ends: ‘For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things" to whom be glory for ever. Amen.’ (Rom.11:36) Oh my people, today let’s take a serious look at ourselves, inside and out, and also around us, and take note of the many wonders of our God and His goodness to the undeserving children of men. Much LOVE!…count your many blessings…count them one by one…then give many thanks… for what your God has done…
