Sprout Grace

Wow! Ladies, this is week 18 and only 5 more scriptures to go to complete Psalm 68. We have taken the Word of God so seriously that it has taken us five months to chew 27 verses. In the Hebrew culture, it was an accepted practice to concentrate on small passages. The consumption of huge segments was not necessarily the goal. Just as gourmet food is more rich and meant to be eaten slower and in smaller portions, the Word of God is to be and savored and relished.
It is my desire that we, as God's daughters will get a glimpse of just how awesome we are in Him and that we become more and more aware of His power resident within us. Through the germination of His Word in our hearts, we begin to sprout, almost effortlessly, the produce of His Grace.

Tuesday, May 4
Psalm 68: 28-30
28 Summon your might, O God.
Display your power, O God, as you have in the past.
29 The kings of the earth are bringing tribute
to your Temple in Jerusalem.
30 Rebuke these enemy nations—
these wild animals lurking in the reeds,
this herd of bulls among the weaker calves.
Make them bring bars of silver in humble tribute.
Scatter the nations that delight in war.

In this passage, the psalmist is proclaiming that all nations must ultimately come under the rule of Jehovah God. Today, go beyond your immediate sphere of relationships and pray for the nations. Record what nations come to your mind. Pray these scriptures over those nations.

Prayer Journey.... "A Great Company"

"A Great Company" is a contemplative prayer journey through Psalm 68. It is an at-home devotion, intended to be done once a week, on Tuesday, sometime during the fourth watch (anytime between 3 am and 6 am).
Psalm 68:11, "The Lord gave the word and great was the company of those that published it." The word company in the original Hebrew language implies a female company!
