Hey Peeps! I'm gone on a missions trip to Vietnam, but I've posted my personal study thoughts from each day and I'll be re-reading the passages along with you while I'm across the globe. Enjoy.
With today's passages, Psalms 76 and 77, there is one verse that just sits heavy with me. Check out verse 12 of Chapter 76:
"He breaks the spirit of rulers;
he is feared by the kings of the earth."
Seriously?! Where is this happening? As I look around the globe I see rulers, leaders, and kings who don't give two seconds of thought to the idea of God. But... God has that power. And one day all men with drop before Him with broken hearts and fear, including leaders and powerful people. As I travel to Vietnam, I wonder what God is doing on the hearts of the leaders right now?
"Are you molding them, God?"
"Right now are you moving their hearts to accept our ideas?"
"What words will you give us to say?"
"How will you move and will we see it?"
"Will it take days? Months? Years?"
All I know is that He is in control and God is doing amazing things through us. We may just be putting in clean water, but He is going to do much more. I'm convinced of it. So, maybe for you it's asking God to use you today. Ask Him to move your heart and be receptive to how He's gonna prompt you. And when he does ask you to do something... jump on it and make it happen.
