The Voice of the Lord
I was listening to the book of Psalms playing in the background while I worked when, all of a sudden, the speaker began to read about the voice of the Lord. I immediately stopped what I was doing and just listened. It made me wonder: Why do we worry so much? The very voice of God holds power over everything. His voice created the heavens, the earth, and all that exists. If His word brought all things into being, then surely all things must submit to Him.
The passage below reminds us to rejoice, to praise, and to give thanks—for the God we serve loves us, and His power has no limits. Nothing is greater or more powerful than Him, for all things were created by His word! When we feel overwhelmed or fearful, we can rest in this truth: nothing can stand against the power of His voice. His word brings peace in chaos, strength in weakness, and hope in despair. My prayer is that this scripture lifts your soul just as it did mine.
Ascribe to the Lord, O heavenly beings, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength. Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name; worship the Lord in the splendor of holiness. The voice of the Lord is over the waters; the God of glory thunders, the Lord, over many waters. The voice of the Lord is powerful; the voice of the Lord is full of majesty.
The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars; the Lord breaks the cedars of Lebanon. He makes Lebanon skip like a calf, and Sirion like a young wild ox. The voice of the Lord flashes forth flames of fire. The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness; the Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.
The voice of the Lord makes the deer give birth and strips the forests bare, and in his temple all cry, “Glory!” The Lord sits enthroned over the flood; the Lord sits enthroned as King forever.
May the Lord give strength to his people! May the Lord bless his people with peace!— Psalm 29
