Selah
In my Bible, Psalm 68 is entitled "A Song of Triumph". Thirty-five amazing verses of victory and celebration. I especially love verse 34 that reads "Give it up for God, for He alone has all the strength and power!" YES! He deserves a standing ovation every day of our lives. God is always at work on our behalf. Meanwhile, every day we encounter opportunities, challenges, even hardships.
So nestled in Psalm 68 I found this beautiful promise in verse 19 that we must never forget. "What a glorious God! He gives us salvation over and over, then daily He carries our burdens!" Our glorious God saves us over and over - and then - He carries what is weighing us down - every single day! Thank You Lord!
Today there will be many things that we encounter. Some may be good and some... maybe not so good. Regardless of how big or small they are our great God is bigger. Nothing comes to us that hasn't passed through God's hands. In fact, if we'll let Him, He will carry them for us!
The Hebrew word "Selah" follows this verse. In The Passion Translation it reads... "Pause in His presence". That is really good direction. Selah.
