I am God's favourite, and I give all the credit to Him!

Shabbat Shalom from Kent, London- 25Jul2025

I am God's favourite, and I give all the credit to Him!

Scripture Reference: Ps 30

This Psalm of David emphasizes his unwavering gratitude to the Lord for safeguarding his life. He recounts a comprehensive list of trials he endured and blessings he received. It is possible that the challenges we face today bear some resemblance to those David encountered. By following the guidance and insights he provides, we too can transform our hardships into joyful testimonies.

I will give thanks unto YHWH forever! A profound declaration from the writer. My Lord got me out of the mess, did not let my foes win. HE has lifted me. My God established me together as He wants me to be! He pulled me out of the grave and gave me GRACE, another chance at life, He made me whole. He changes my lament into dancing.

I can not keep quite about You. I can not thank YOU enough, my God! You have kept me alive!

V12 in MSG version says, I am about to burst with Song, I can not keep quite about you. David is giving the reasons why he thank HIM from his heart and will not stop singing His Praises. Mourning endured for a night, but the Joy come in the morning. God turned his mourning into dancing. He has given him a brand new song to sing. Mourning turn into dancing. This is a true transformation. Blessedness of answered prayer, something bad to good, deliverance. This song is a Prayer of thanksgiving. 

A big testimony that I have noticed by exploring the text closely.  David cried to the Lord for help. HE has helped him. 

The Scriptures powerfully affirm that true help in times of trouble comes solely from the Lord. Prayer serves as the vital process through which we reach out to Him, seeking His wisdom, guidance, and unwavering support. All other alternatives we may consider often prove to be fleeting, unreliable, or merely temporary remedies. The unwavering path is found in following Jesus, who calls us to approach Him with faith. He reassures us through His promise: "Whatever you ask in My Name, ask, and it will be given to you." The primary reason we often fail to receive is simply that we have not made the request.

Psalm 30:5 reminds us that His anger lasts only for a moment, but His favour lasts a lifetime. Weeping may endure for a night, but a shout of Joy comes in the morning. Let us make supplication as David did- Be Gracious and show favour to me, O LORD, Be My HELPER, In Jesus' Name, Amen. He will turn the things for us, mourning into dancing, by taking off our sackcloth and clothing us with JOY, by helping us in our crises, sending breakthroughs in our burdens, helping us to Pray in dark situations, sending a radical change in our affliction. The LORD is God. He created us and we belong to HIM. We are HIS people, the sheep in HIS pasture. Be thankful and Praise the Lord as we enter His temple. The Lord is good! His love and faithfulness will last forever.

At the altar, our destiny is altered

At the altar, our destiny is altered... Reference-  Job 37:23-24 MSG “Mighty God! Far beyond our reach!     Unsurpassable in Power and Justice!     It’s unthinkable that HE would treat anyone unfairly. So bow to HIM in deep reverence, one and all!     If you’re wise, you’ll most certainly worship HIM.” God is unfolding His story in His own way. The Sovereign and Supreme Ruler is in control of everyone, everything, and everywhere, and the accuser must seek His permission before acting against us. He sees us as His own, and we belong to Him just as He belongs to us. As Job said, God can do all things, and no purpose of His can be stopped (42:2). The Just and Righteous Judge – Our God is fundamentally just, and it’s unthinkable that He would treat anyone unfairly. His rule and governance are righteous, even if at times our eyes, ears, and hearts may not fully understand. The source of all wisdom and revelation is God , whose knowledge is complete unlike ...

God's way is the Power

God's way is God's Power Reference- 1 Cor 4:20 MSG -  God’s Way is not a matter of mere talk; it’s an empowered life!! In 1 Corinthians, Paul speaks to a divided church where some were proud, eloquent, and believed they were spiritually superior because of their words and wisdom. He contrasts this human pride with the true power of God, shown in the cross, in changed lives, and in the work of the Spirit, the God's Power. It’s an empowered life—God’s ways are the true power, not found in mere talk, endless words, idle chatter, or impressive responses built on layers of discussion. It is a life empowered by the power of His Spirit, the presence of the Holy Spirit. It is power that breaks chains, sets us free, anoints us, and creates new opportunities, fresh paths, flourishing streams, divine strategies, abundant life, and limitless expansion. Paul didn’t ask the Corinthians to be practical . It’s not about having everything, but about having Him alongside others. That’s why h...

Efforts that counts...

Efforts that counts... Reference- 2 Ch 17  Context: King Jehoshaphat was a seeker and follower of the God of his father and was obedient to HIM; he wasn’t like Israel (at that time, Ahab was ruling Israel). And God secured the kingdom under his rule, gave him a firm grip on it. And everyone in Judah showed their appreciation by bringing gifts. Jehoshaphat ended up very rich and much honoured. Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone - Apostle James in 2:17 Efforts that showed his intention to Seek and Keep Him: Sticking to the ways of Asa (his godly father). Rejecting Baal — non-conformity to the ungodly culture. Removing high places and Asherah poles. This is personal reformation — the king putting his own house in order spiritually. Efforts that enabled others to Seek and Keep Him: Building defences — not just military, but spiritual covering. Sending teachers throughout Judah with the “Book of the Revelation of God” (likely the Torah or existing OT Scriptures). ...
