CLOUDS AND DARKNESS SURROUND HIM

“The LORD reigns!” This provided powerful inspiration;

The Psalmists gave this much thought in contemplation.

That God reigns must cause the heart to give a happy shout;

Even the smallest of isles in remote places are not left out!

 

“The LORD reigns!” This is a truth of great power;

This is worth meditating upon, hour after hour.

Clouds have the ability to give shelter from the sun;

To be blistered by scorching heat is certainly no fun.

 

“The LORD reigns!” Darkness would sometimes hide His glory;

But in the darkness of midnight, the Lord grants great mercy.

God’s throne has a foundation based on justice and righteousness;

He reigns in great power and majesty but never in unfairness!

 

“The LORD reigns!” This was a theme in “The Song of Moses.”

God had triumphed and the Egyptians suffered heavy losses.

Let us be challenged to give time to meditate on God’s reign;

Our faith in the LORD our God would never be in vain!

 

Inspiration : Psalm 97:1-2; Exodus 15:1-16; 19:16-20; Nahum 1:3
