Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance: Psalm 105:11 (Ref Psalm 105:1-11)

I have been and yet still in such a crazy praise mode this week. I have such an "excitement build up" in my veins with anticipation and I feel as if I’m going to explode with joy as I eagerly look forward to what the Lord is doing not only in me but in my life and my circumstance. When I read the scripture this morning, it described everything perfectly. The Lord is always on time with His word that it keeps me in awe. So you know I have to tell it! This is the amplified version:

O Give thanks unto the Lord, call upon His name, make known His doings among the peoples! Sing to Him, sing praises to Him; meditate on and talk of all His marvelous deeds; sincerely praise them. Glory in His holy name; let the hearts of those rejoice who seek and require the Lord as their essential necessity. Seek, inquire of the Lord, crave Him and His strength; His might and seek to require His face, His presence continually evermore. Earnestly remember the marvelous deeds that He has done, His miracles and wonders, the judgments and sentences which He pronounced upon His enemies, as in Egypt. O you offspring of Abraham, His servant, you children of Jacob, His chosen ones, He is the Lord our God; His judgments are in all the earth. He is seriously mindful of His covenant and forever it is imprinted on His heart, the word which He commanded and established to a thousand generations, the covenant which He made with Abraham, and His sworn promise to Isaac; which He confirmed to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as an everlasting covenant, “Saying, Unto you will I give the land of Canaan as your measured portion, possession, and inheritance. Isn’t that enough to sing praises and thank God for? And as if that wasn’t enough He said even though they are strangers in the land, I will allow no man to do them any harm and spoke to the powers that be for their sakes to let them know that He didn’t like what they doing to His people. Then verse 15 confirms that by saying, “Touch not My anointed, and do My prophets no harm.” Folks need to be careful about messing with, messing over, and messing around God’s people.

When the Lord delights in us: He makes ways for us; He makes our crooked places straight, He works on our behalf as we go along this journey. He tells us that He will bring us into a land that is rich and flowing in milk and honey; bring us into abundance, into increase, and into stability if we would just trust Him at His word. The Word says in I Peter 5:6-10, to humble ourselves under the mighty hand of God, so that He might exalt us in due time, our due season; casting all of our cares on Him because He cares for us. Be watchful and attentive, cautious and on guard because the enemy desires to destroy us, along the way. We must remain steadfast and unmovable in our faith because after we have suffered awhile… He will make us perfect, establish and strengthen us and then settle us in the land of ever flowing… our land of plenty!

I am excited and waiting in expectation at what the Lord is about to manifest in my life. No I can’t see it, but I can feel it in the atmosphere… and isn’t that why we walk by faith and not by sight? I don’t need to see it to believe it, but I need to believe it in order to see it! Amen? However, until it manifests itself, I’m going to continue to give God praise, thank Him and make known of His doings among the people so that they might be blessed as well. You should be able to hear me as I sing praises to Him and as I dance my way right into Canaan, my land of plenty!

Until the morning, be blessed,
Cynde
