For Ever and Ever

Psalms 148:4-6
"4 Praise Him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.
5 Let them praise the name of the LORD: for He commanded, and they were created.
6 He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: He hath made a decree which shall not pass."

It's ALL about praise to GOD!!! 
We are studying Psalms one hundred and forty-eight this week. It begins with All the Saints and all the Angels; everyone who dwells in heaven begin the songs of praise. Also, the sun and moon are there to PRAISE GOD! The "stars of light," each and every one has something special to it that PRAISES GOD! Their multitudes, variety and vast distance, all is a wonderful chorus of praise for GOD!

Today's verses; "Praise Him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens." There is so much heaven that there is one heaven rising above another! If we pay attention to Holy Scriptures we will learn the is also water above; Genesis 1:7 : "And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament." Praise the LORD!

"Let them praise the name of the LORD: for He commanded, and they were created." All celestial creations praise GOD; the angels, the saints of heaven, the sun, the moon, and the stars; the heavens, and the haven of heavens, and the waters above them! There is more to creation than we know, even with all our advanced technology and science, we don't know it all.

ALL praise to GOD!!! God brought everything into existence by speaking a word; He spoke, and they came into being at His command, "He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: He hath made a decree which shall not pass." All creation is dependent on the will of GOD. As long as GOD wants creation to exist it will. God made creation firm, stable, enduring. Creation has endured many million of ages and may continue to exist for many million of ages to come.

I will make you

Matthew 4:19&20 "19 And He saith unto them, Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men. 20 And they straightway left their nets, and followed Him." In our "Follow Me" series, we study Jesus calling His disciples in the Gospel of Matthew. By the Sea of Galilee, a thriving fishing hub, Jesus saw Simon and Andrew casting nets as humble fishermen. His disciples were ordinary workers, not wealthy or educated elites. Jesus approached them and said, "Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men." Remarkably, they immediately left their jobs to follow Him. This brief exchange conveys a profound truth: Jesus says, "I will make you." Only God can transform us to accomplish His purpose. We should often pray, "Help me, God," seeking Jesus' guidance to follow His plan for our lives.

God’s patience

2 Peter 3:9 "The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." God did not immediately punish King Solomon when he allowed his foreign wives to build altars for false gods. Despite multiple compromises, God remained patient. Over time, Solomon’s endorsement of idolatry defied God’s covenant, leading to divine judgment, including the loss of the kingdom for his son. Some mistake God’s patience for indifference or inaction, but He follows His plan in His timing. If our nation, culture, church, or we ourselves stray like Solomon, we can repent and return to God’s path. And, should do so sooner than later! Amen!

Elisha’s example

1 Kings 19:19-21 "19 So he departed thence, and found Elisha the son of Shaphat, who was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen before him, and he with the twelfth: and Elijah passed by him, and cast his mantle upon him. 20 And he left the oxen, and ran after Elijah, and said, Let me, I pray thee, kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow thee. And he said unto him, Go back again: for what have I done to thee? 21 And he returned back from him, and took a yoke of oxen, and slew them, and boiled their flesh with the instruments of the oxen, and gave unto the people, and they did eat. Then he arose, and went after Elijah, and ministered unto him." In Luke 9:54, after James and John sought to call down fire on a Samaritan village that rejected Jesus, they referenced Elijah, saying, “even as Elias did?” Jesus then taught three lessons about rejection: 1- Discipleship demands sacrifice, embracing hardship and forgoing earthly security. 2- Following Jesus requires immediate, un...
