WHAT THE LORD WILL DO (II)

O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon His name: make known HIS DEEDS among the people – Psalm 105:1

The first fifteen verses of Psalm 105 are also found, with little variation, in 1 Chronicles 16:8-22. David composed this song while removing the ark to Mount Zion. It describes the detail of God’s merciful dealings with Abraham and his posterity up till their settlement in the Promised Land. This Psalm confirms that the Lord is the DOER of marvellous deeds and wondrous works. We also can believe His Word, for great deeds that God WILL DO in our lives this New Year. Yesterday’s meditation touched on ten things of such. Today, we discover and declare another set of ten powerful promises of ‘What God Will DO’!

Join me as I declare that in this New Year:

• God who favoured Mary WILL FAVOUR me all-round (Psa.5:12; Lk.1:30)
• God who speaks peace to His people WILL SPEAK to me clearly (Psa.85:8)
• God who chastens His own in love WILL CORRECT me lovingly (Heb.12:6; Rev.3:19)
• God my Commander WILL ORDER my steps and DIRECT my paths distinctly (Pro.3:6; 16:9)
• God by His Word WILL INSTRUCT me accurately in the way that I should go (Psa. 32:8a)
• God the Omniscient WILL GUIDE me precisely with His eyes (Psa.32:8b)
• God the Keeper of Jacob WILL GUARD me jealously as the apple of His eyes (Dt.32:10)
• God my Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel WILL LEAD me positively and profitably (Isa.48:17)
• God who connected Ruth to her destiny helper WILL CONNECT me correctly (Ruth 1:16)
• God the Restorer of health and Healer of wounds WILL RESTORE me entirely (Jer.30:17)

God is never afraid to declare what HE WILL DO and actually do them. He is therefore worthy to receive worship and praise for His marvellous deeds and wondrous works. His Word never fails. His Will can never be thwarted. He will do what He has promised to do. We can count on His Word and stand firm on His Will. Do not forget where we began our meditation: “…the LORD WILL give grace and glory…” (Psa.84:11).
