Psalm 97 ~ Clouds and thick darkness are all around Him




Psalm 97


1 The Lord reigns, let the earth rejoice;
let the many coast lands be glad!
2 Clouds and thick darkness are all around him;
righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.




3 Fire goes before him
and burns up his adversaries all around.


4 His lightnings light up the world;
the earth sees and trembles.
5 The mountains melt like wax before the Lord,
before the Lord of all the earth.



Revelation 4:3
And he who sat there had the appearance of jasper and carnelian, and around the throne was a rainbow that had the appearance of an emerald.





 6 The heavens proclaim his righteousness,
and all the peoples see his glory.
7 All worshipers of images are put to shame,
who make their boast in worthless idols;
worship him, all you gods!

8 Zion hears and is glad,
and the daughters of Judah rejoice,
because of your judgments, O Lord.
9 For you, O Lord, are most high over all the earth;
you are exalted far above all gods.

10 O you who love the Lord, hate evil!
He preserves the lives of his saints;
he delivers them from the hand of the wicked.

11 Light is sown for the righteous,
and joy for the upright in heart.
12 Rejoice in the Lord, O you righteous,
and give thanks to his holy name!



Clouds and thick darkness are all around Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His Throne.



Why would God the Father want to use Clouds and Thick Darkness all around Him???


This is Good News for Today.
These times. With factions and violence.

Seems so unusual for God to use Clouds and Thick Darkness. We know God is partial to Light from Genesis 1 and John 1. Father God tells us His Son - Jesus is the Light of the World in all of mankind.

Light overcomes Darkness. God says so. Here on earth and Heaven.
God is Good. All the Time.


Matthew 5:15-16
15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a basket. Instead, they set it on a lampstand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.

In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.




And the Good deeds, shining Light of Father God Almighty, our very own God in Heaven fully display His Glory.

The Glory of God is Jesus, fully perfect, clothing us in His Righteousness as a free gift of Faith.

And found...

Revelation 11
19 Then God’s temple in heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant was seen within his temple; and there were flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder, an earthquake, and heavy hail.

Why would GOD be clothed in darkness?






Genesis 1:14
Then God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night, and let them be for signs and for seasons and for days and years

 




Romans 1:20
For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood from His workmanship, so that men are without excuse.




 

 God tells us He wants to save the world in Jesus Christ - therefore - God Is Always overcoming Dark.

John is our disciple writing John's Gospel of Jesus Christ. John 1 tells us of Heaven and John speaks of God's Throne.



The true light, which enlightens everyone, was coming into the world.

What has come into being in him was life, and the life was the light of all people. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it.



"I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty."

Also in front of the throne there was what looked like a sea of glass, clear as crystal. In the center, around the throne, were four living creatures, and they were covered with eyes, in front and in back.

And they were calling to one another: "Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory."

Who among the gods is like you, LORD? Who is like you-- majestic in holiness, awesome in glory, working wonders?

'Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty,' who was, and is, and is to come.

“Behold, The Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world!"



Father God,

The Light of God is Love and Mercy. Grace.

The goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior have appeared.

Jesus, the Only Son of God our Father, has saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to His own Mercy.

By the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit. Father God has poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior.

In His Grace, we need to be mindful because we accept His Salvation with Faith, Hope and Love. Justified by Jesus' own grace - we become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

The saying is trustworthy, and I want you to insist on these things, so that those who have believed in God may be careful to devote themselves to good works. These things are excellent and profitable for people.

If possible, so far as it depends on us, live peaceably with all. Have salt among yourselves, and be at peace with one another.

Let us be born of water and Spirit, calling Jesus the Law fulfilled for us. Let us draw upon His Joy and give Him our today. Jesus is our hope, joy, Love and expectation. We lift our cares, the cares of the one's we love and pray for, our communities, our Churches, the Nations of the world in Jesus Christ's Salvation. And end our prayers holding fast to Him and His embrace. Looking for Jesus to Lift His Face, the Light of His smile for us! We know all who call upon Jesus are heard. For the faith to see renewal, joy and His blessings - Jesus dwell in me always! Amen in Jesus.






♔ Lord Jesus Saves!  †

About scripture-for-today.blogspot.com/

We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He has saved all who call upon His name and rely on Him for His Grace. The Scriptures are living & active and are for understanding the Lord Almighty. Biblical readings are chosen from the Ecumenical Christian Church and the Nicene Council, 325 A.D., approved Apocrypha. People remember not just from reading, but by sight and orally- an image has been added as well as audio readings. God tends to link the passages together with fascinates - this blogger, Anne-Laurel Gardere

About Me

My photo
Email registry at bottom.! “All Scripture is inspired by God” (2 Timothy 3:16). Men “moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God” (2 Peter 1:21). The Holy Spirit carried men along, moving and guiding them as they wrote in their own words what God wanted them to say. The Bible is unique; comprised of 80 separate books, & written over a period of thousands of years by more than 40 writers with one Author, spanning the centuries, different states of peace & war & different situations in life. The Bible answers the question: of who is God, who is man & what can their relationship can be. Although the Bible was written on perishable material and copied by hand for many centuries, its accuracy is not in doubt, proven by Dead Sea Scrolls and papyrus from 2,000 years. The Bible has survived persecution & criticism to be read with great interest in each generation. The Bible gives witness to the greatness of the Creator. A loving Father concerned for all of his creation. With each verse of the bible witnessing to God is love and the multitude & vastness of His attributes. The Bible was written for you. <><
