“May His Beauty Be Upon You”

beauty of the lord upon us 

 

by Dona Hake

In Psalm 8 verse three, the Psalmist makes mention of how he considered and saw that the heavens were the work of God’s fingers. He then said “the moon and the stars, You ordained and established.” We marvel at God’s magnificent creation, yet He promises to do great things in and through us as we serve Him in our life.  Yesterday we looked at the fact that our life is a gift from God, and also He desires that our life be a gift to those around us.   He created us with wonderful things in His mind, and He promises to enable us to do all that He desires.

 
 
 
 
Acts 17:28 (CEV)
“…and he gives us the power to live, to move, and to be who we are.”
 
 
 
 
He enables us to live this life by His power. He helps us to be the person He desires us to be. Today I want to encourage your heart to just let Him do things through you today. I found one of the definitions for the word ~let~ to be interesting in light of the scripture I am going to share with you.

 

 
 
 
 

Let: to grant the occupancy or use of

Now let us read this scripture from the Psalms..

 
 
 
 
 
“…And ~let~ the beauty and delightfulness and favor of the Lord our God be upon us; confirm and establish the work of our hands—yes, the work of our hands, confirm and establish it.” Psalm 90:17 Amplified Version
