So that 250th anniversary thing was kind of a letdown, huh? A poorly attended (and even more dismally entertained) fair in DC, a fiasco of a July 4th celebration in Philadelphia, the only thing in the movie theaters being a new Minions movie...

Fiesta de Santa María Magdalena

Santa María Magdalena Jn 20,1-3.11-18 20,1 El primer día de la semana, de madrugada, cuando todavía estaba oscuro, María Magdalena fue al sepulcro y vio que la piedra había sido sacada. 20,2 Corrió al encuentro de Simón Pedro y del otro discípulo al que Jesús amaba, y les dijo: «Se han llevado del sepulcro al Señor y no sabemos dónde lo han puesto». 20,3 Pedro y el otro discípulo salieron y fueron al sepulcro. 20,11 María se había quedado afuera, llorando junto al sepulcro. Mientras lloraba, se asomó al sepulcro 20,12 y vio a dos ángeles vestidos de blanco, sentados uno a la cabecera y otro a los pies del lugar donde había sido puesto el cuerpo de Jesús. 20,13 Ellos le dijeron: «Mujer, ¿por qué lloras?». María respondió: «Porque se han llevado a mi Señor y no sé dónde lo han puesto». 20,14 Al decir esto se dio vuelta y vio a Jesús, que estaba allí, pero no lo reconoció. 20,15 Jesús le preguntó: «Mujer, ¿por qué lloras? ¿A quién buscas?». Ella, pensando que era el cuidador de la huerta, le respondió: «Señor, si tú lo has llevado, dime dónde lo has puesto y yo iré a buscarlo». 20,16 Jesús le dijo: «¡María!». Ella lo reconoció y le dijo en hebreo: «¡Raboní!», es decir, «¡Maestro!». 20,17 Jesús le dijo: «No me retengas, porque todavía no he subido al Padre. Ve a decir a mis hermanos: 'Subo a mi Padre, el Padre de ustedes; a mi Dios, el Dios de ustedes'». 20,18 María Magdalena fue a anunciar a los discípulos que había visto al Señor y que él le había dicho esas palabras. Memoria de santa María Magdalena, que, liberada por el Señor de siete demonios y convertida en su discípula, le siguió hasta el monte Calvario y mereció ser la primera que vio al Señor resucitado en la mañana de Pascua y la que se lo comunicó a los demás discípulos (s. I). «La historia de María de Magdala recuerda a todos una verdad fundamental: discípulo de Cristo es quien, en la experiencia de la debilidad humana, ha tenido la humildad de pedirle ayuda, ha sido curado por él, y le ha seguido de cerca, convirtiéndose en testigo de la potencia de su amor misericordioso, que es más fuerte que el pecado y la muerte» Benedicto XVI, 23 Julio, 2006. Formó parte de los discípulos de Cristo, estuvo presente en el momento de su muerte y, en la madrugada del día de Pascua, tuvo el privilegio de ser la primera en ver al Redentor resucitado de entre los muertos (Mc 16, 9)Fue sobre todo durante el siglo XII cuando su culto se difundió en la Iglesia occidental. La historia de María Magdalena es una de las más conmovedoras del Evangelio y también de las más enigmáticas. Se debate si la mujer que relatan varios pasajes del Evangelio es una o tres mujeres: 1- La pecadora que unge los pies del Señor. (Lc., VII, 37-50). 2- María Magdalena, la posesa liberada por Jesús, que se integró a las mujeres que le asistían (Lc. VIII; Jn XX, 10-18) hasta la crucifixión y resurrección. 3- María de Betania, la hermana de Lázaro y Marta. (Lc., X, 38-42). El santoral litúrgico actual celebra a una sola: María Magdalena utilizando las referencias a su encuentro con Jesús resucitado. La Pecadora que unge los pies del Señor en Galilea San Lucas hace notar que era una "pecadora pública" pero no especifica que haya sido una prostituta. Cristo cenaba en la casa de un fariseo donde la pecadora se presentó y al momento se arrojó al suelo frente al Señor, se echó a llorar y le enjugó los pies con sus cabellos. Después le ungió con el perfume que llevaba en un vaso de alabastro. El fariseo interpretó el silencio y la quietud de Cristo como aprobación del pecado y murmuró en su corazón. Jesús le recriminó por sus pensamientos. Primero le preguntó en forma de parábola cuál de dos deudores debe mayor agradecimiento a su acreedor: aquél a quien se perdona una deuda mayor, o al que se perdona una suma menor. Y descubriendo el sentido de la parábola, le dijo directamente: "¿Ves a esta mujer? Al entrar en tu casa, no me diste agua para lavarme los pies, pero ella me los ha lavado con sus lágrimas y me los ha enjugado con sus cabellos. Tú no me diste el beso de paz; en cambio ella no ha cesado de besarme los pies. Tú no me ungiste la cabeza y ella me ha ungido los pies. Por ello, te digo que se le han perdonado muchos pecados, pues ha amado mucho. En cambio, aquél a quien se perdona menos, ama menos". Y volviéndose a la mujer, le dijo: "Perdonados te son tus pecados. Tu fe te ha salvado. Vete en paz". (Lc. 7) La discípula de Jesús, liberada de siete demonios En el capítulo siguiente, San Lucas, habla de los viajes de Cristo por Galilea, dice que le acompañaban los apóstoles "y algunas mujeres que habían sido curadas de espíritus malignos y enfermedades: María, llamada Magdalena, de la que habían salido siete demonios" (Lucas 8:2). Lucas no especifica ni niega que sea la misma pecadora que unge a Jesús, pero ciertamente se trata de una pecadora y es la misma persona que en Marcos 16:9 es testigo de la resurrección. La hermana de Marta y Lázaro, residentes de Betania Más adelante Lucas narra que, en "cierta población", el Señor fue recibido por Marta y su hermana María. Probablemente las dos hermanas se habían ido a vivir a Betania con su hermano Lázaro, a quien el Señor había resucitado a petición de ellas. Dada la mala reputación que tenía María en Galilea no sería extraño que los tres hermanos se mudaran a Betania (Judea). Marta se ocupaba con afán de atender al Señor y le pide que dijese a su hermana que le ayudase, pues María estaba a los pies de Cristo para escuchar cuanto decía. El Señor respondió: "Marta, Marta, te preocupas por muchas cosas y sólo hay una necesaria. María ha escogido la mejor parte y no le será quitada" (Lc. 10:41). Segunda unción con perfume San Juan en el cap. 12 (cf. Mat., XXVI; Mc, XIV) identifica claramente a María de Betania como la mujer que, en la víspera de la entrada triunfal de Jesús en Jerusalén, le ungió los pies y los enjugó con sus cabellos, de manera que "la casa se llenó del olor del perfume". Esto ocurrió cuando Jesús cenaba con la familia de Lázaro en Betania. San Juan nos dice que Jesús los amaba. ¿Es María de Betania también la protagonista de la primera unción ocurrida en Galilea?. Creemos que sí porque un capítulo antes de que ocurra la unción en Betania, es decir en Jn11,2, San Juan se refiere ya a esta María como "aquella que ungió los pies del Señor" (he aleipsasa). Si es así, María la pecadora se había convertido en contemplativa a los pies del Señor, escogiendo la mejor parte. San Juan pone de relieve el poder transformador de Jesucristo sobre las almas. La que era posesa ahora es contemplativa. Una profunda enseñanza sobre la misión de Jesucristo quien ha venido a perdonar y salvar a los pecadores. Tampoco faltaron criticas en la segunda unción. Judas se escandalizó, no por generosidad con los pobres, sino por avaricia, y aun los otros discípulos interpretaron la conducta de María como un exceso. Pero el Señor reivindicó esta unción como había hecho la anterior: "¡Dejadla en paz! ¿Por qué la molestáis? Buena obra es la que ha hecho conmigo. Porque a los pobres siempre los tendréis con vosotros, pero a mí no me tendréis siempre. Esta mujer ha hecho lo que ha podido, adelantándose a ungir mi cuerpo para la sepultura. En verdad os digo que dondequiera que se predique este evangelio sobre la faz de la tierra, se dirá lo que ella ha hecho por mí". (Mt.26) San Juan Crisóstomo comenta: "Y así ha sucedido en verdad. Por dondequiera que vayáis oiréis alabar a esta mujer . . . Los habitantes de Persia, de la India, . . . de Europa, celebran lo que ella hizo con Cristo Al pié de la Cruz En la hora del Calvario, mientras casi todos abandonan a Jesús, allí estaba María Magdalena. ¡Cuanto se lo agradecería Jesús y la Virgen María! "Junto a la cruz de Jesús estaban su madre y la hermana de su madre, María, mujer de Clopás, y María Magdalena". Juan 19:25 Entre las que siguieron a Jesús en Galilea ahora siguen a Jesús al Calvario "Había allí muchas mujeres mirando desde lejos, aquellas que habían seguido a Jesús desde Galilea para servirle. Entre ellas estaban María Magdalena, María la madre de Santiago y de José, y la madre de los hijos de Zebedeo". Mateo 27:55-56 Sentada en el sepulcro Después que José de Arimatea entierra a Jesús y se fue, María Magdalena quiso quedarse. "Estaban allí María Magdalena y la otra María, sentadas frente al sepulcro". -Mateo 27:61 Es coherente pensar que quién tuvo el amor y la valentía de exponerse para lavarle al Señor los pies con su cabello fuese capaz de estar con el en la cruz y después permanecer amorosamente ante su cuerpo yacente. Da testimonio de Cristo Resucitado María Magdalena, con la otra María fueron las primeras en ir al sepulcro el domingo de Resurrección: "Pasado el sábado, al alborear el primer día de la semana, María Magdalena y la otra María fueron a ver el sepulcro" (Mateo 28:1) Iban con los perfumes para embalsamarlo... Descubrieron así que alguien había apartado la pesada piedra del sepulcro del Señor. "Jesús resucitó en la madrugada, el primer día de la semana, y se apareció primero a María Magdalena, de la que había echado siete demonios". (Marcos 16:9) María Magdalena, la pecadora convertida en contemplativa, fue la primera que vio, saludó y reconoció a Cristo resucitado. Jesús la llamó: "¡María!" Y ella, al volverse, exclamó: "¡Maestro!" Y Jesús añadió: "No me toques, porque todavía no he subido a mi Padre. Pero ve a decir a mis hermanos: Subo a mi Padre y a vuestro Padre, a mi Dios y a vuestro Dios" (Jn 20:17) El hijo de Dios quiso enseñarnos el alcance de su amor y de su poder redentor santificando a una pecadora, adentrándola en su infinita misericordia y enviándola a anunciar la resurrección a los Apóstoles. María Magdalena es gran ejemplo para todos. No se dejó paralizar ni por sus pecados del pasado ni por las opiniones humanas. Creyó de todo corazón en las promesas del Señor y alcanzó la meta. Aquella de quién Jesús dijo que se adelantó para "ungir su cuerpo para la sepultura", no puede ahora ungir Su cadáver porque ha Resucitado. Aquella de quién dijo que "dondequiera que se predique el evangelio se dirá lo que ha hecho por mi" no podía ahora ser excluida del Evangelio porque es la primera persona testigo de su principal evento: La Resurrección del Señor. A la que mucho amó mucho se le perdonó y mucho continuó amando hasta llegar a participar en la gloria del Señor. Tradiciones sobre la vida posterior de María Magdalena La tradición oriental afirma que, después de Pentecostés, María Magdalena fue a vivir a Efeso con la Virgen María y San Juan y que murió ahí. A mediados del siglo VIII, San Wilibaldo visitó en Efeso el santuario de María Magdalena. En el 886 fueron llevadas sus reliquias a Constantinopla. Según la tradición francesa muy difundida en occidente, María Magdalena fue con Lázaro y Marta a evangelizar la Provenza, Francia y pasó los últimos treinta años de su vida en los Alpes Marítimos, en la caverna de La Sainte Baume. Poco antes de su muerte, fue trasladada milagrosamente a la capilla de San Maximino, donde recibió los últimos sacramentos y fue enterrada por el santo. La primera mención del viaje de María Magdalena a la Provenza data del siglo XI, a propósito de las pretendidas reliquias de la santa que se hallaban en la abadía de Vézelay, en Borgoña. Pero la leyenda no tomó su forma definitiva sino hasta el siglo XIII, en la Provenza. A partir de 1279, empezó a afirmarse que las reliquias de Santa María Magdalena se hallaban en Vézelay, en el convento dominicano de Saint-Maximin. Todavía en la actualidad es muy popular la peregrinación a dicho convento y a la Sainte Baume. Pero las investigaciones modernas, especialmente las que llevó a cabo Mons. Duchesne, han demostrado que no se pueden considerar como auténticos ni las reliquias, ni el viaje de los amigos del Señor a Marsella. Así pues, a pesar de los clamores de la tradición local francesa, hay que confesar que se trata de una fábula. Volvamos pues al Evangelio. La pecadora fue perdonada por Jesús. Se cumplió en ella el Salmo 51 "Un corazón humillado y arrepentido, Dios nunca lo desprecia". María Magdalena es la mujer que fue fiel a Jesús hasta el final y que El escogió para ser testigo de la Resurrección ante los apóstoles. Santa María Magdalena, ruega por nosotros.

Dr Hollisa Alewine – Footsteps of Messiah Part 204 (The Food of the Gods)

Hebrew Nation Online

The Food of the Gods “I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, if you find my beloved, as to what you will tell him: for I am lovesick. What kind of beloved is your beloved, O most beautiful among women? What kind of beloved is your beloved, that thus you adjure us?” (So 5:9) “The nations of the world say to Israel: ‘How is your beloved more than another beloved?” In what way is He God more than other gods, in what way is He a protector more than other protectors?'” (Midrash Rabbah to Shir 5§9) Once again, the proto-typical event is the exodus from Egypt: “For I will go through the land of Egypt on that night and will strike down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments—I am the LORD.” (Ex 12:12) “And what one nation on the earth is like Your people Israel, whom God went to redeem for Himself as a people and to make a name for Himself, and to do a great thing for You and awesome things for Your land, before Your people whom You have redeemed for Yourself from Egypt, from nations and their gods?” (2 Sa 7:23) When did the other “gods” of the pantheon assume power over the nations? And are these entities unruly evil demons or ruly assigned powers over the principalities (2 Pe 2:10; Jde 1:8)? Too involved to answer, and probably not so fruitful, but when Israel goes into the principality of an assigned power, in a sense, it is the territory of that nation's assigned angelic majesty, elohim, or “judge, authority.” There are indeed, however, unruly demonic entities that operate within those principalities that are worshipped as gods. Elohim is spirit, yet He “eats” the gifts of our worship, the human desire to be near to Him expressed in gifts and sacrifices: ”You shall consecrate him, therefore, for he offers the food of your God; he shall be holy to you; for I the LORD, who sanctifies you, am holy.” (Le 21:8) “Speak to Aaron, saying, ‘No man of your offspring throughout their generations who has a defect shall approach to offer the food of his God.'” (Le 21:17) “…nor shall you accept any such [blemished, diseased] from the hand of a foreigner for offering as the food of your God; for their corruption (“decay”) is in them, they have a defect, they shall not be accepted for you.'” (Le 22:25) Elohim’s food is to receive our heartfelt, lovesick obedience free of the decay of death. Our food is to do the will of the Father who sent Yeshua, the Living Word. (Jn 4:34) The evil and unclean gods of the pantheon also receive “food” when we idolize them [we actually worship ourselves and they enable it]. As in the Garden, when the serpent offered the humans the opportunity to “be like God,” so evil spirits receive the gifts and sacrifices of human beings as food, fuel for their ability to cross into our realm and proliferate. It was the serpent who was trying to be like God, and he needed Adam and Eve to feed that desire. He fed them what they desired; they fed him what he desired. The serpent is always eager to feed our wrong appetite, desire, emotion, and intellect. The end result, though, is death, not life. Obedience to Elohim's voice, however, produces life and the ability to continue abundant life in the Garden, a Land flowing with milk and honey, wine and balsam. The following recitation for the tithe of the third year contains specific language that reminds us we are not to feed the dead, whether ancestors or gods. Instead, we feed only our Elohim with our holies of sacred obedience. In return, our Elohim sets us high above all the nations and their gods. This is why our Beloved is high above all others and why we are lovesick, seeking His Voice in the night of exile, which is what Adam and Eve should have done, waited to hear His Voice walking in the cool of the evening. “When you have finished paying all the tithe of your increase in the third year, the year of tithing, then you shall give it to the Levite, to the stranger, to the orphan and to the widow, that they may eat in your towns and be satisfied. You shall say before the LORD your God, ‘I have removed the sacred portion from my house, and also have given it to the Levite and the alien, the orphan and the widow, according to all Your commandments which You have commanded me; I have not transgressed or forgotten any of Your commandments. I have not eaten of it while mourning, nor have I removed any of it while I was unclean, nor offered any of it to the dead. I have listened to the voice of the LORD my God; I have done according to all that You have commanded me. Look down from Your holy habitation, from heaven, and bless Your people Israel, and the ground which You have given us, a land flowing with milk and honey, as You swore to our fathers.' This day the LORD your God commands you to do these statutes and ordinances. You shall therefore be careful to do them with all your heart and with all your soul. You have today declared the LORD to be your God, and that you would walk in His ways and keep His statutes, His commandments and His ordinances, and listen to His voice. The LORD has today declared you to be His people, a treasured possession, as He promised you, and that you should keep all His commandments; and that He will set you high above all nations which He has made, for praise, fame, and honor; and that you shall be a consecrated people to the LORD your God, as He has spoken.” (Dt 26:12-19) The unruly rebellious entities derive power when they are worshipped; in a sense, they are “fed” by human beings, which attracts greater numbers of unclean and evil spiritual beings…unclean in that those spirits are NOT assigned to the physical realm, but they hunt for physical hosts to enable them to operate there. It actually speeds the process of death and decay to the host because it is an unclean mixture. Life is only within one's assigned realm: “Then it goes and takes along with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there; and the last state of that man becomes worse than the first. That is the way it will also be with this evil generation.” (Mt 12:45) When we “feed” a spiritual entity our disobedience and rebellion, we transgress, mixing two realms, which invites death, not life. It has no place in the life of a believer in Yeshua, or in a human being at all. This is why disobedience is equated with witchcraft: For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, And stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the LORD, He also has rejected you from being king.” (1 Sa 15:23) Because of this rebellion, the kingship and authority was forfeited. Just as in the Garden when the serpent had to entice the human beings into rebelling in order to commandeer their authority to rule, so we still can be deceived into the giving our spiritual authority to the beast by trying to be “like God.” There is only one Elohim, and all other beings are created by Him, even the rebels of the universe. An altar is a “table” connecting the physical realm with the spiritual. Why would we feed rebellious spirits the food of our own disobedience and share their demonic table fare? “Look at the nation Israel; are not those who eat the sacrifices sharers in the altar? What do I mean then? That a thing sacrificed to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything? No, but I say that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons and not to God; and I do not want you to become sharers in demons. You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons; you cannot partake of the table of the Lord and the table of demons.” (1 Co 10:19-21) Angelic powers over principalities don't need or want human worship to enlarge their influence or authority; they already have authority because it is assigned to them. Perhaps it was pre-assigned when the heavenly hosts were created, but more likely their creation prepared them to be assigned to their supervisory divisions after the Flood: “Two sons were born to Eber; the name of the one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided; and his brother's name was Joktan.” (Ge 10:25; 32; 1 Ch 1:19) There is also this verse that synchronizes the symbolic 70 nations of the earth and their divisions to the number of Israelites who went down to Egypt: “Your fathers went down to Egypt seventy persons in all, and now the LORD your God has made you as numerous as the stars of heaven. (Dt 10:22) “When the Most High gave the nations their inheritance, when He separated the sons of man, He set the boundaries of the peoples according to the number of the sons of Israel.” (Dt 32:8) This may not be a contradiction, but a hint to the restoration work in progress, a plan where the twelve tribes of Israel would become the judges over the nations from the gates of Jerusalem, i.e., the gates to the Garden of Eden, and the assigned princes over the nations would be shaken out of the way, that role concluded. Whatever the details of the plan, it is evident that these angelic majesties were anticipated and assigned, but the original plan was for the righteous among humankind to judge those angels in administering the Kingdom on earth and possibly in the heavenlies: “Or do you not know that the saints will judge the world? If the world is judged by you, are you not competent to constitute the smallest law courts? Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more matters of this life?” (1 Co 6:2-3) These things are what makes our Beloved greater than the other gods of the nations. In addition, Messiah Yeshua can give his most beautiful Bride authority to rule the nations as at the beginning when Adam and Even ruled. The gods of the nations, whether unruly demonic or the ruly assigned angelic majesties, cannot and will not give this kind of authority, for their authority is either usurped or only a temporary assignment. “He who overcomes, and he who keeps My deeds until the end, TO HIM I WILL GIVE AUTHORITY OVER THE NATIONS; AND HE SHALL RULE THEM WITH A ROD OF IRON, AS THE VESSELS OF THE POTTER ARE BROKEN TO PIECES, as I also have received authority from My Father; and I will give him the morning star.” (Re 2:26-28) The morning star? The first resurrection! We can share Yeshua’s table at the wedding supper of the Lamb. (Re 3:20) Please SUBSCRIBE to our newsletter to get new teachings.

I'm sure if I was smarter or worked on it longer, I might find Whitman or Dickenson or Hughes illuminating. Perhaps I'm too simple, but for my lights good poetry is not mainly a puzzle to unlock. Let's try a relevant example for our sesquicentennial year. Maybe you know it.Listen my children, and you shall hear, of the midnight ride of Paul Revere. On the eighteenth of April in seventy-five hardly a man is now alive who remembers that famous day and year.Poetry is designed to be memorable and meaningful and to produce a certain kind of response.I love the ending:And so through the night went his cry of alarmTo every Middlesex village and farm,—A cry of defiance, and not of fear,A voice in the darkness, a knock at the door,And a word that shall echo forevermore!For, borne on the night-wind of the Past,Through all our history, to the last,In the hour of darkness and peril and need,The people will waken and listen to hearThe hurrying hoof-beats of that steed,And the midnight message of Paul Revere.In April of 1860, Longfellow wrote Paul Revere's Ride as our nation stood on the precipice of Civil War. He wanted to remind a very divided country of an important story of courage and sacrifice from America's founding generation. And he longed to impact their affections — encouraging fellow abolitionists to take heart and to act with urgency and end the injustice of chattel slavery. That's what great poetry does: it captures a narrative in a memorable way — a way that communicates truth beautifully and awakens the reader's affections and actions. This is how Psalm 104 works. It is different than Psalm 8 (“you have set your glory above the heavens”) or Psalm 19 (“the heavens declare the glory of God and the sky above proclaims his handiwork), because not only is Psalm 104 a poem with vivid, worship-evoking imagery, it is a poetic retelling of an important story: Genesis 1-3. It's literally a song—the Psalmist's cover of Moses's narrative account. And like Paul Revere's Ride, the retelling of God's work in Creation (vv2-30) communicates truth beautifully and awakens our affections and actions. It calls us (v1) to bless the Lord and (v31-35) fuels the consummation of that praise. Let's take this poem in those three steps. The call to praise (v1)The cause for praise (vv2-30)The consummation of praise (vv31-35)1. The Call to PraiseWhile the Hebrew text doesn't ascribe this Psalm to David, both the Greek translation of the Old Testament and the Dead Sea scrolls label this a Davidic Psalm. Especially because the Psalmist begins, as David did in 103, by calling on his soul: “Bless the Lord, O my soul.”David is telling himself, “slow down, shut off the music, put away the phone, and look – I mean really look.” This isn't just a looking with the eyes. As we heard, vv2-30 are full of vivid imagery – things that David certainly would have seen: lightning, storm clouds, the sea, the mountains; streams, birds, donkeys, and so on. But David is doing more than observing – he is lovingly turning over in his mind what he sees; pondering it; examining it in light of the story of creation. In verse 34 David calls this way of looking “meditation.”Verse 34, May my meditation be pleasing to him, for I rejoice in the Lord.We'll come back to this, but for the moment notice that the call to bless the Lord is grounded not only in what David sees but in who he sees by it. His meditation on God's work in Genesis 1-3 produces a delight that bubbles up at the beginning, in the middle, and at the end of the Psalm. 2. The CauseLet's turn to examine the cause for this delight. David goes back to Genesis 1 and 2 to give six reasons creation is a cause for blessing the Lord.Reason #1: God is great in the heavens (1b-4).Look at verses 1-4. Can you hear Genesis 1? In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and void and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God of was hovering over the waters. And God said “let there be light.” And there was light (Gen 1.1-3).And so David proclaims, God is clothed with splendor and majesty, robed in light. He hangs the stars and the planets. He establishes the atmosphere. He stores up the rain and builds his throne above the earth. He is swift and mighty as the wind and he bridles the great thunderclouds. The greatest forces of the universe are under his sovereign control: “he lays, he makes, he rides.” Reason #1 for praise, God is great in the heavens.But not only is God great in the heavens, he is also…Reason #2 supreme over the earth (5-9).Look at vv. 5-9 while I read Genesis 1. Can you hear the creation account? And God said, “Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear.” And it was so. God called the dry land Earth, and the waters that were gathered together he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.We tend to call the world around us “nature” as though it is self-existing. But David attributes supremacy over the planet to God alone. It is a supernatural creation. You covered the earth with the waters. You spoke and they fled. The mountains and valleys took the places you assigned. You drew a line for the waters and said: “they shall not pass.” Reason #2, God is supreme over the earth.God is also…Reason #3, the giver of life-sustaining waters (10-18).Here David's song does variation on a theme. In an arid land like Israel, water was scarce. But God took care of that. You make the water appear out of nowhere. Springs to sustain your birds and animals. Even the mountaintops you provide for – bringing rain to water them. You cause the grass to grow. You made good plants for man to cultivate – grain for bread, grapes for wine. You provide for the animals and you gladden the heart of man. Just as Genesis 2 says, God is the giver of life-sustaining waters.Reason #4 God is maker of time (19-23).“Night and day,” David says, “they were your idea” On the fourth day, you made the sun and the moon to govern them. You even appointed that the beasts stalk their prey (which you provide) at night so that man can labor by day. What didn't you think of? You are the maker of time.David can't even get through his meditation on creation without erupting into praise. Look at verse 24:“O Lord, how manifold are your works! In wisdom have you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures.”The poet Gerard Manly Hopkins wrote, “the world is charged with the grandeur of God. It will flame out like shining from shook foil.” Everywhere David looks, he sees God's beauty and excellence. It is as though he is saying, “Look at that! Isn't he amazing? Look at that! Isn't he majestic? Look at that! Isn't he wise! So David like a good songwriter, even puts in verse 24 as a bridge — pointing back at God's works in vv1-23 and pointing forward to God's creatures in vv25-30!Because…Reason #5 God is maker of the sea and its creatures (25-26).Even the Leviathan, which makes Job shiver in his boots, you made on Day Five so it could play in the sea. Since the waters are under your sovereign control, what once was a barrier is now a route for travel and trade. Isn't he something? God is the maker of the sea and its creatures.The whole account crescendos in the final reason David gives…Reason #6, God is creator and sustainer of all creatures (27-30).All these — the beasts and the birds, the plants and the trees, the whales and the wombat — they all look to you. You, God, are at the center of it all. When you give, when you open, when you hide, when you take away…all creation waits on you. You care for them. None escape your notice. Because you are the creator and sustainer of all things.So, David with Genesis in mind and the Spirit's poetic inspiration gives us six reasons creation should cause us to bless the Lord. God is great in the heavens, he is supreme over the earth, he is the giver of life-sustaining waters, he made and governs time, he oversees the oceans and its amazing creatures, and he is the creator and sustainer of all things. Creation displays his handiwork. All of it testifies to his power and divine nature. If we have eyes to see it, every blade of grass, every multi-colored sunset, every microscopic organism, every mighty beast, every mathematical equation shouts the glory of God. We inhabit a world “set on fire with praise.”No wonder David begins in v 1 by exclaiming: O YHWH, my God you are very great! In fact, the Hebrew might be better rendered – “you have become magnificent. You have clothed yourself with splendor and majesty.” Your works redound to your glory! Everything in the created order is a mirror reflecting back to God the wisdom and beauty and goodness that he is, himself. Lord, give us the eyes to see!So we've seen the call to praise (v1), David's six-fold cause for praise (vv1-30); now, thirdly, (vv31-35) the consummation of praise.3. The Consummation of Praise (31-35)All that David has considered now fuels his final refrain in verses 31-35:“May the glory of the Lord endure forever; may the Lord rejoice in his works, who looks on the earth and it trembles, who touches the mountains and they smoke!” (vv31-32)Notice two striking things about this verse. First, it is a plea. “May the glory of the Lord endure forever. May the Lord rejoice in his works.” David feels God's greatness so deeply that his prayers line up with God's design. “Yes, God. You are glorious, and so may your glory be seen! May your people delight in you and all that you are.”But notice that second prayer in verse 31. “May the Lord rejoice in his works.” Not “May your people, rejoice in your works,” but “may the Lord rejoice.” God delights in his works. We know this, because that's God's refrain in Genesis: “And God saw that it was good.” The earth and seas. Good! The plants and the trees. Good! The moon, sun, and stars. Good! The creepy crawlies and the fish and the birds and the sea creatures and the great beasts and the livestock. Yes, Good! Man and woman, in my own image. Very good! God rejoices in his work because it reflects him. It shows off his manifold excellencies. All of creation simultaneously every moment of every day since God spoke the universe into existence declares what is true — that God is the most admirable, beautiful, wise, good, generous, glorious being in the universe. And we were created to share in his joy.This God-centeredness of God might throw us off balance. Is it off-putting that God, through David in Psalm 104, commands his own praise? C.S. Lewis at first thought that it seemed no different than a vain woman craving compliments. But listen to what he concluded: “…the most obvious fact about praise – whether of God or anything – [had] strangely escaped me. I thought of it in terms of compliment, approval, or the giving of honor. I had never noticed that all enjoyment spontaneously overflows into praise…The world rings with praise – lovers praising their mistresses, readers their favorite poet, walkers praising the countryside, players praising their favorite game – praise of weather, wines, dishes, actors [and so on]….I had not noticed…that just as men spontaneously praise whatever they value, so they spontaneously urge us to join them in praising it: ‘isn't she lovely? Wasn't it glorious? Don't you think that magnificent?' The Psalmists in telling everyone to praise God are doing what all men do when they speak of what they care about. My whole more general difficulty about the praise of God depended on my absurdly denying to us as regards the supremely valuable what we delight to do – what indeed we can't help doing – about everything else we value.”David praises what is supremely valuable. He does what we are made and delight to do. He rejoices in God being God. And sings about it!“I will sing to the Lord as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I have being. May my meditation be pleasing to him, for I rejoice in the Lord.” (vv33-34) But the singing must not stop with him. Look how he ends his song. “Bless the Lord O my soul. Praise the Lord!” (35b)David moves beyond calling his soul to bless the Lord to summoning all people to do the same. “Praise the Lord” is the first use of “hallelujah” in the Psalter. It is a you-plural not a you-singular. Northern English speakers don't have a category for this, but my eastern Kentucky relatives would say it right, “Praise the Lord, y'all. All y'all.” And that's because, as Lewis continues, calling others to praise God “doesn't merely express the enjoyment, it is its appointed consummation” — it brings praise to its fullest completion. David's joy is made complete by calling us to praise the Lord by us joining in that praise. That is what this Psalm is for. Like Longfellow's Paul Revere's Ride, Psalm 104 captures an important story in a memorable way. It reminds us of something that really matters. But ultimately, it does something to us.Don Paterson says that when a poet writes a poem he's creating a little machine that when operated by a reader, recreates in them the experience the poem is trying to preserve. When we operate Psalm 104, it evokes our joy in God. It summons us to express that joy in praise and blessing. And it calls us to consummate that joy by sharing it with others. But neither David nor us can know this joy without addressing the most serious problem.Let sinners be consumed from the earth and let the wicked be no more! (v 35a)At first, I found this an odd thing for David to say in his great crescendo of praise. But he is reminding us that Genesis 3 comes after Genesis 1 and 2. Human beings were made to receive creation as a gift and enjoy and rejoice in what it tells us about the one for whom we were made. But we turned the gold into idols halfway to Canaan. We worship created things rather than the Creator. While creation shouts that we were made for joy in God, so often we say “that's nice” and go back to scrolling on our devices. David longs for a day when this outrage will finally be addressed. That sin that he sees traces of in verse 29. Paul tells us that even creation has been subjected to futility because of our rebellion. Things are not the way that they should be. The Lord's SupperAnd that is what brings us to the table. Because in the fullness of time, God himself came to address that rebellion. He entered into his own creation to free us from enslavement to inferior joys. To save us from the penalty our idolatry justly deserves. In mercy and kindness, to restore to us the fullness of his joy; His life for ours; our sin for his righteousness that we might be to praise of his glory. That is what we celebrate here. Maybe in this moment you can't bless the Lord because you haven't given up your idols; you haven't put all your hope in Jesus for the forgiveness of sin. Friend there is no better time than now. Jesus says to you, I am the bread of life, whoever comes to me shall not hunger and whoever believes in me shall never thirst (Jn 6.35). Go to him.

JUL. 8, 2026Pursue God's purpose for your life!'''For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans to prosper you... plans to give you hope and a future.'"' Jer 29:11 NIVNothing is more gratifying than knowing one's purpose-even when opposition seems unbearable and other distractions threaten to overshadow it. Often when people say they don't have a passion for anything, they mean they don't have faith to believe they could actually do what they really desire in their hearts. Jesus refused to let anyone pull Him away from His purpose. "Someone in the crowd said to him, 'Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me! Jesus replied, 'Man, who appointed me a judge or an arbiter between you?'" (Lk 12:13-14 NIV). In essence, Jesus was saying, "I'm not about to get distracted by conducting an arbitration hearing between you two. That's not part of My purpose for being here on earth." Even up to the day that Jesus gave His life on the cross, there were many sick people needing healing and a myriad of other impossible situations that needed His attention. He knew that through the power of His death and resurrection, all could be addressed. So, despite unresolved problems, He confidently gave His heavenly Father this report on His ministry: "I brought glory to you here on earth by completing the work you gave me to do" (Jn 17:4 NLT). Jesus refused to let His disciples, Satan, well-meaning family members, needy people, or anyone else distract Him from His purpose. And you must learn to do that too. This raises the question: Can you state your God-given purpose in a single sentence? Are you pursuing it?Pursue God's purpose for your life "Completing the work you gave me to do"Share This DevotionalSend us Fan MailSupport the showChanging Lives | Building Strong Family | Impacting Our Community For Jesus Christ!
