Psalm 86

Lord, You are God
I am poor, needy, holy.
 When David says " I am holy"
its natural to think why he proudly says I am holy.

But if we truly understand what he says " Lord I am separated one in this world".

In life of David, people gave lot of names to David.
David father and brothers called him, just a shepherd boy.
Saul called him enemy,
there were others who called David as murderer.

But David did not confess what man said about Him.
He know what God says about Him.
He also knows the promises of God, that God delivers His holy ones.
Lord I am a holy one.

we worshiped God with songs and praises. If you truly want to worship God with this psalm meditation, you have to declare promises of God. don't confess what other people say about you.
Always see what God has promised and believe and confess.

But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;


V9 : Nations
Genesis 25:22,23

Here God calls Jacob and Esau as Nations. For us we may say two infants or two embroyos.
But God looks them as Nations.
In Abraham, God saw Nations of Faith.

my grandfather, in his whole family, he first believed in the Lord. and the whole tree continued - it is 70 people , many are believers. some are full time.

If one person takes a stand you see how great an effect is.
that is why when we look at a one person , dont just say he may not come or she may not come. But look at them as a nation. their faith will impact the nation that comes from them.


V11,V12

Unite my heart to fear your Name.


Life Lot - on one side - his wife, 
             on other side - his daughters got engaged
             on another side - its greener pastures, wealthy living.

I dont know whats going on in Lots mind, when angels came to bring Lots family out of sodom. But Lot united his heart and decided Yes whatever may be the emotional parts but Fear Gods Name.
Same with Noah, people might be calling him mad guy when he was building the ark, but he united his heart to fear Gods Name.
Today if you are going through different things in your life, unite your heart to fear Gods Name and do things that bring Glory to God .
Amen.
