Let's Enter God's Presence

Shout with joy to the Lord, O earth!
Worship the Lord with gladness.
Come before him, singing with joy.
Acknowledge that the Lord is God!
He made us, and we are his.
We are his people, the sheep of his pasture.

Enter his gates with thanksgiving;
go into his courts with praise,
Give thanks to him and bless his name.
For the Lord is good.
His unfailing love continues forever,
and his faithfulness continues to each generation.
~ Psalm 100:1-5 [LAB]

Spiritual Sundays

“Who Is A God Like You?” is the other song I had submitted to have a demo tape done. The other song was the one I shared for “Father’s Day”.

My inspiration in composing this song came from Micah 7:18:

“Where is another God like You, Who pardons sins of the survivors among His people? You cannot stay angry with Your people forever, because You delight in showing mercy!” – Life Application Bible.


“Who is a God like you, who pardons sin and forgives the transgression of the remnant of his inheritance? You do not stay angry forever but delight to show mercy.” – New International Version.


“Where is the god who can compare with you – wiping the slate clean of guilt, Turning a blind eye, a deaf ear, to the past sins of your purged and precious people? You don’t nurse your anger and don’t stay angry long, for mercy is your specialty. That’s what you love most.” – The Message.


“Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? He retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth in mercy.” –King James Version.


“Our God, no one is like you. We are all that is left of your chosen people, and you freely forgive our sin and guilt. You don’t stay angry forever; you’re glad to have pity.” –Contemporary English Version

On this spiritual Sunday, please reflect on how God delights to show mercy! He is glad when we repent. He offers forgiveness to all who come back to Him.


Today, if you haven’t confessed your sins to Him, please consider in doing so. You will receive His loving forgiveness. Don’t be too proud to accept His free offer.


For more encouragement and uplifting posts, please hop over to Spiritual Sundays, hosted by two loving sisters in Christ – Sister Charlotte and Sister Ginger. God bless you all.

Rosel,

Too true that we should spend our time this independence day reflecting on what God has done for us, we are now free from the bondages of sin and what this world would like to use to hold us back.

Love and Hugs ~ Kat

My Dear Friend,

The song is absolutely beautiful. The video, is that your song, is that you singing? If so, it's as beautiful as your heart and your soul dear, sweet sister.

Ron and I are doing okay. We haven't heard from the Cardiologist with a date yet, but I suspect we will probably hear this coming Monday or Tuesday.

You are so thoughtful. Always checking in, always loving, always caring. I love you and I am extremely happy that God brought you and many others into my life via this site and others. You truly write for Him and all of His glory. Praise be to God!

Happy 4th of July. We are laying low today, but my reflection all day has been on the true meaning of what today truly is all about.

Love, Blessings, Hugs and Prayers,
Alleluiabelle

Hi Rcubes, what a wonderful scripture, and I just love the way you've shared it through several different versions of the Bible. The message comes across so powerfully.

God bless :)

girlinaglasshouse said...

This is a favorite scripture of mine because it gives an undistorted picture of the true heart of God. Having known the joy of His embrace following disobedience, it has become a precious thought...than in my repentance there is a "wiping the slate clean of guilt"!

There is truly no other God like Him!
