Good Wednesday Morning Blog Family. We have made it to the middle of the week and very thankful. God is so good to us and He is good all of the time. He allowed us to make it this far and not once did He ever leave us and I am so thankful and grateful. That’s why I decided to post Psalm 84 this morning as my blog, it talks about how blessed we are because we put our trust in Him. Praise God.
The Blessedness of Dwelling in the House of God
To the Chief Musician. On[a] an instrument of Gath. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.
84 How lovely [b]is Your tabernacle,
O Lord of hosts!
2 My soul longs, yes, even faints
For the courts of the Lord;
My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.
3 Even the sparrow has found a home,
And the swallow a nest for herself,
Where she may lay her young—
Even Your altars, O Lord of hosts,
My King and my God.
4 Blessed are those who dwell in Your house;
They will still be praising You. Selah
5 Blessed is the man whose strength is in You,
Whose heart is set on pilgrimage.
6 As they pass through the Valley of [c]Baca,
They make it a spring;
The rain also covers it with [d]pools.
7 They go from strength to strength;
[e]Each one appears before God in Zion.
8 O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer;
Give ear, O God of Jacob! Selah
9 O God, behold our shield,
And look upon the face of Your [f]anointed.
10 For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand.
I would rather [g]be a doorkeeper in the house of my God
Than dwell in the tents of wickedness.
11 For the Lord God is a sun and shield;
The Lord will give grace and glory;
No good thing will He withhold
From those who walk uprightly.
12 O Lord of hosts,
Blessed is the man who trusts in You!
