Considering the Bible

My hope is that this series will offer my readers a chance to consider the names, characteristics and descriptions of our God in the Word.

The remaining Names of God in this series might be considered descriptors, or characteristics of the Lord. We have reviewed the three primary Names of God, along with nineteen compound Names of God in our previous posts. As we venture through these descriptors of our God, I hope we will recognize all the many characteristics of our God that we tend to take for granted.

The Word is truly rich with descriptions of the Living God, and this effort of searching in the Word was quite illuminating. He truly is the ultimate subject of the Word, and His revelation of self-descriptions, or the accolades offered Him by His priests, prophets, kings apostles and faithful truly is a blessing.

May the Name of the Lord be praised, and by thinking on His name, may you have a blessed day.

HE WHO MADE GREAT LIGHTS

Psalm 136:7 to him who made the great lights, for his steadfast love endures forever;

We are visiting Psalm 136 again, and it is fitting that we do, for the psalm is a repetition of God’s great love for His people.

Throughout this psalm, the author has a refrain for every act of the Lord He has performed for His people.

That refrain is “His steadfast love endures forever.”

This must surely, I thought be the same psalm that in other translations speak of “His mercy endures forever”. But I am mistaken! The psalm I am thinking of is Psalm 118, where the psalmist picks up the same refrain, praising God for His steadfast love (again!)

Throughout the Old Testament, the scoffer and unbeliever focus on tragic history that occurs in the narrative, some of which occurred to accomplish God’s plan. This is a common, (and somewhat justified) complaint of those who have never met the Messiah. It is a method of deflecting blame from their own sin problem, blaming God for something they (and I) don’t fully understand!

Yet, it is repeated over and over again, not only instatements, but in His actions, that the Old Testament describes our Master as the One who is steadfast in His love for His people. Once the soul has tasted that the Lord is good, all complaints of prior history fades, for He suffered more than any, and He suffered for all.

We must remember that those who may have seemed to have died prematurely in a battle, in a war, or in fights that extended an earthly theocracy, were souls that belonged to God, that He is sovereign, and though I personally have struggled with some of the stories revealed in the Old Testament, it is of the will of God that has not only allowed or directed difficult times, but the same God who has revealed these actions to His people.

It is wise to not sit in judgement on the Creator!

Nevertheless, to Him who made the great lights, the great lights are referring to the sun, moon and stars as the following verses describes.

Psalm 136:8,9 the sun to rule over the day, for his steadfast love endures forever; the moon and stars to rule over the night, for his steadfast love endures forever;

I could speak of the sheer magnitude of His creation of the lights, especially the sun. How massive in size, and critical for our existence is the sun. Yet the sun is simply one of a hundred billion million gazillion (alot!) stars spun out into space, that the psalmist could not have known of, yet the Creator provided.

This alone should stop us in our tracks, considering the incredible, unimaginable vastness of the creation! Yet the psalmist speaks of these creations, these great lights as they relate to the day to day order for lowly men and women on the earth.

Each day, the sun provides light, heat, and specific time periods for mankind to have order and experience a consistency of expectations. Each day, the sun will provide light, each night the stars will provide guidance and beauty. God’s people can rely on the Lord’s creation, and this provides a comfort to the saint, knowing God has provided a faithful creation, reflecting a faithful God.

But the psalmist speaks of steadfast love being the reason for this faithfulness in the performance of the great lights. It is the motivation of the Lord that the psalmist highlights, and that which we might do well to dwell on this morning.

His intention to us is fuels by a great steadfast love through creation, through our daily lives, through the food He supplies and the rest He provides. God has made the great lights because of His great love for us, even though we go about without recognizing this great blessing

Take a moment this day, in your travels, in the quiet, in that alone time and consider the great lights, whether daytime or nighttime, and give the Lord the recognition He so richly deserves.

For He is the God who made the Great Lights, and has given us the Light of Life to know Him.

Thank you Jesus.

HE WHO KEEPS WATCH OVER YOUR SOUL

Proverbs 24:12 If you say, “Behold, we did not know this,” does not he who weighs the heart perceive it? Does not he who keeps watch over your soul know it, and will he not repay man according to his work?

Feigning ignorance is so common. In this world of knowledge, access to knowledge, abundant facts and figures, calculations, methods of analysis and data accumulation, to claim ignorance is a difficult sell.

Yet the argument can easily be made that with the abundance of knowledge available to the modern man, two results can occur.

With the flood of data pouring into our eye sockets, we may be numb to the impact of any specific piece of knowledge. We often do not have the time to consider the data, the impact of the data of our lives, and the proper response, if any. By the time we have consumed that morsel of information, another piece of information is knocking at the door of our minds, screaming to get in.

It is all a bit of an information overload!

Beyond the sheer over-abundance of information available to the modern man, we have an additional problem. Crappy data.

Information that is simply worthless, merely a distraction at best. I would suggest this is the bulk of information that is available today, and the motive is to gain the attention of a consumer, that soul who may not discriminate the data or the claims of the salesman, and simply be led into an agreement that will cost them more than the purchased product is worth.

Now, don’t get me wrong on this point, as the worthless data that I refer to is not simply associated with goods and services in the practical, physical world. Worthless data may also be information that is intended to distract the reader from better, wholesome, spiritual information.

Of course worthless data may be lumped in with data that is intended to deceive, to lead astray or to destroy.

Nevertheless, to feign ignorance in this modern age is a hard sell for the average person. Too much information is available, and our problem nowadays is sifting through to find the correct, factual and edifying information to build a correct and godly life upon.

Of course the data we can rely on is the Word, but as we read this passage above, I do not think Solomon is addressing scientific facts, mathematical equations or general truths all who breathe can know.

Solomon is talking of the responsibilities we have to live properly in relation to those around us. To love those whom we know, to care for those we may not know well, and to relate properly to those who may be our enemy.

After all, Solomon mentions our soul and heart, those containers of our lives that hold the important “stuff”, the stuff that we cannot feign ignorance of if we care about God and men.

If we are honest with ourselves, and avoid the distracting relentless barrage of data, we can know what Solomon is referring to. I suggest the Word provides guidance in this area through a prophet called Micah.

Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

We know inside and the Lord provides the external data to confirm our responsibilities before Him and His people.

He is the God who keeps watch over our soul, and though we know the best, He is the One who provides strength, guidance and external verification of our internal data, so we may be sure before Him.

HE WHO IS MIGHTY

Luke 1:49 for he who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is his name.

Grade 4, and Lyle was my bully. As a matter of fact, he was everyone’s bully. As I try to remember the times of grade 4, I can’t remember a time when Lyle actually proved his might, to establish this bully persona. He was all talk and never exercised any of the bravado he spoke.

What a great talker, and the threats he made to keep his people in order were poetic, majestic and terrifying. Remember – I was in grade 4 and Lyle was my first bully, (other than my two big brothers).

In that little mind of grade 4 Carl, Lyle was mighty. He had the power , the authority and the right to rule over all the kids in Miss Claxton’s class.

But was he mighty? Or is the secret of the bully fear induced submission? I think so, and there are a multitude of religions that are based on this model. Fear induced submission, from a bully type God.

The problem for the bully is that when push comes to shove, the bully usually collapses. His reign of fear begins to crack, and eventually those under him realize it was a might not based on fact but on fear!

Not so with the God of Israel, for He is mighty, and He proves it. The write of this verse confesses that God has “done great things for me”.

There are some in the Christian community that would view God as a bully type of deity, one who demands rule keeping, using threats to create obedience in his people. Is this the God we serve? Is this the message we see in the Messiah as He walked amongst us?

In this verse the Lord is one who is doing great things for his people. No hint of threatening, or danger of “being beaten up” if not compliant to his wishes. Nothing like that is mentioned in this verse. It is not the Lord who is speaking great swelling words, seeking to induce a fear based obedience, but the recipient of God’s goodness declaring the might of God because of God’s actual work the saint experienced.

So different than Lyle. Bullies have no might other than fear. God’s might is actual, experiential and evident.

We need to understand He who is Mighty is the God who shows His might by providing for His people, doing mighty things for those who love Him and even for those who don’t know Him.

He who is Mighty is better than Lyle. So much better, in so many ways!

HE WHO HAS PITY ON THEM

Isaiah 49:10 they shall not hunger or thirst, neither scorching wind nor sun shall strike them, for he who has pity on them will lead them, and by springs of water will guide them.

How often have we watched a poor sucker on the silver screen yell out “I don’t want your pity”, or “I don’t need your pity”? Admit it – even as this character is expressing his rejection of any pity, we tend to identify with him.

No one that I know seeks pity. Pity is a somewhat negative expression in our current understanding, toward those in a trial or difficulty. Pity in the English dictionary is defined as “sympathetic or kindly sorrow evoked by the suffering, distress, or misfortune of another”.

In our culture, to receive pity may be perceived as an expression of helplessness, of an inability to resolve a problem. It also places the one expressing pity as somewhat superior over the one receiving the pity, though I think this may be unintended many times. Nevertheless, the one receiving pity often considers the pity to be coming from someone who may never experience trials or troubles, and therefore cannot identify with them.

So when we see a passage such as today’s we may have incorrect thoughts regarding it. Let’s consider if this is a correct reaction.

First, for one to show pity, as expressed in this verse is to express compassion, as in a sharing of the burden. Per Gesenius’ Hebrew – Chaldee Lexicon, the term “pity” in Isaiah 49:16 has the idea of “cherishing, soothing, and in a gentle emotion of the mind, to behold with tenderest affection, to be compassionate”.

There doesn’t appear to be any expression of superiority in this display of pity over the one needing help. It is an expression of love. That is perty dang good news, if it was only in relation to those of our own peers. The simple understanding of “pity” in our verse as expressing “being with someone” in a trial is comforting to say the least.

To further assist in our correct reaction to this somewhat negative word is to consider the One offering compassion (pity).

He is superior, far above our condition and status, greater in every way, and if our understanding of pity was correct in the original discussion, we could assign it to the One above and it would correctly fit in expressing His possible reaction to those of us in trouble. All of us, that is!

But for the only One who is actually superior to us, He uses a different concept of pity, a pity that is better expressed as compassion in our understanding. He is “with us” in our trials. To have compassion is to be moved with the pity, to take action instead of simply feeling bad.

As the Lord walked this earth, He expressed compassion on many. Note that when He expressed compassion, actions accompanied this emotion.

Mark 8:2, 8 “I have compassion on the crowd, because they have been with me now three days and have nothing to eat.
And they ate and were satisfied. And they took up the broken pieces left over, seven baskets full.

So in summary, God truly is greater than us and in our current understanding of pity, could rightly express this emotion. Yet there is much more to this passage than applying our incorrect understanding of pity to our God.

He not only enters into our trial, but He takes action. It is not only an expression of emotion, but a solution provided, an action taken to assist in the trial.

For those Isaiah was preaching to, this assistance from the hand of God was His leading and guiding them through the wilderness and to the springs of water.

As I grow older in the Lord, this leading and guiding is becoming much more critical in my faith. To think the Sovereign of the Universe is willing, no, not only willing but desires to guide us is an incredible truth.

I will take His pity! I will seek His compassion. For HE WHO HAS PITY ON THEM has had much pity (compassion) on me.

May you find the compassion of God in His leading also. It is a blessing that should not be ignored nor rejected.

HE WHO GIVES FOOD TO ALL FLESH

Psalm 136:25 he who gives food to all flesh, for his steadfast love endures forever.

We find this Name of God in a psalm that begins by thanking God for His enduring, steadfast love.

Psalm 136:1 Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever.
Psalm 136:2 Give thanks to the God of gods, for his steadfast love endures forever.
Psalm 136:3 Give thanks to the Lord of lords, for his steadfast love endures forever;

I have been considering what it means for His love to endure forever, and the implications are somewhat disruptive to my current thinking of our God, but for this post, I would like to consider one expression of this enduring, steadfast love of God.

This one expression of the steadfast love of God towards His creation (all flesh) is His continual provision of food.

Some may argue that this provision is simply the “circle of life” or the ongoing process of nature. For the non-domesticated animal, the wildlife all around us, God’s provision is evident.

Matthew 6:26 Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?

These non-domesticated animals are wholly dependent on the Father, and all of creation exhibits this truth.

For the domesticated animal, farm critters that is, humans get involved, and these animals existence is directly dependent on a human intermediary. Of course this implies in both the man’s thinking, and the animal’s thinking (I assume) that man is the source of all provisions.

This passage forces us to reconsider that assumption. We will let the animal think what it wants, but for us who know the Lord, two things grow out of this statement.

A Thankfulness.

This is the natural, obvious result of a man or woman who understands all provisions come from the hand of the Lord. Whether it is through the sweat of our brow, (as a tradesman) or the pain of our brain, (as an office geek) or the reward of our labors (as a retired soul), each of us have been given in measure the ability, the energy, the desire and the work ethic to accumulate provisions for ourselves and for others. And we are thankful!

A Challenge.

In the day to day push and shove of all the trials in gaining our necessary provisions, we easily fall into the trap of thinking it is all about us. We go through the stress and worry (which is unnecessary and wrong), we go through the grind of employer’s and client’s expectations, and of course we endure the constant peer pressure of others. On top of all that, we may tend to want to escape, just to have a short time when the pressure has been removed.

No matter how much you may love your job, pressures mount, and we may very (very) easily fall into thinking it is all about us, that everything is dependent on our performance, our efforts, our work.

It takes a focused heart to reject that thinking and to see in each of our situations the hand of God providing (through our efforts) the good things we are provided.

Let me share a short story of my learning this truth a few years back.

I was fired from a job due to my wife being sick. A bit of a long story, but I gave my employer short notice, since the sickness did arrive abruptly, and he told me to get in to the office in 30 minutes or not come in at all. I lived 40 minutes away, but beside that, I was not about to leave my wife’s side!

For the next two months, we saw the Lord provide our needs, though we told absolutely no one of this situation other than Him. He was the One we prayed to, and He was the One who provided. In the end, He also provided a position with a firm that has given me opportunities beyond my imagination.

I am thankful for His provisions, whether it is through the sweat of my brow, the pain of my brain, or the direct intervention of the Father above.

He is good, and He is the One WHO GIVES FOOD TO ALL FLESH.

By the way, I saw that old boss at a conference lately. He thought I had died. (He is 15 years older than I!) Nevertheless, it was good seeing him and reconnecting!

To come in the Name of the Lord. What does that mean? What did it mean when these crowds shouted out “in the name of of the Lord” In the Name of the Lord, we may understand the Lord’s… IDENTITY Did the crowds understand this Rabbi’s true identity? Were they openly confessing He was Emmanuel, God with us? Some identified His person clearly and without hesitation. Matthew 16:16 Simon Peter replied, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” As He was heralded by the crowd as coming in the Name of the Lord, His disciples must have been beaming. They had hitched their horse to a winner! Little did they understand the extent this Rabbi would go to display the heart of God, revealing the identity of our God beyond what we and they could have imagined. Jesus identified the True God as a sacrificially loving Servant to those who despise and would crucify Him. Who could have identified God in such a way, providing to all such a glorious act of love to those who hate Him, even to death. None other than the One who came in the Name of the Lord. He revealed the identity of God in a manner beyond any of our imaginations. In the Name of the Lord, we may understand the Lord’s… CHARACTER Surely, after watching His miracles, listening to His message and seeing His life amongst them fully on display, the crowd most surely associated this Rabbi as God’s prophet. The Rabbi lived a life that could not be condemned and though He was sentenced to death, it was through deceit and malice. His character was stellar, without a blemish, and perfect for a sacrifice. 1 Peter 1:19 but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot. Perfect, without blemish as a sacrifice. In the Name of the Lord, we may understand the Lord’s… AUTHORITY Authority is the right to command an action without being challenged. Of course, the Lord is the Almighty, the One who spoke and galaxies began their existence, a small blue ball grew a garden and He granted life to two souls. He parted the waters, and defeated the enemies. Jesus, as He came down to be with His people, continued exhibiting His authority, over and over again. We see Him exercising His authority over the laws of nature (calming the wind and sea), the laws of physics, (walking on the water) the laws of biology (healing the blind and deaf), and the law of sin and death (raising multiple dead people). He displayed His authority over and over again, yet not for Himself. Throughout His time with us, He did not exercise His authority for His own sake, from not in creating bread for His hunger, through to deliverance from His suffering. The One Coming in the Name of the Lord truly exhibited God’s identity, character and authority more than any in the crowd could have imagined.

I am going to confess to those who follow and read my rants, that I am a cessationist. A hardcore cessationist? It is a conviction I have developed over the last four decades, in my studies and in outworking of those who propose the continuation of the gifts in this age. Before I go any further, let me explain. To be a cessationist is to say that I do not believe prophecy, speaking in tongues, and apostolic healing have continued throughout the church age. These gifts to the church were provided to establish and authenticate the church, and once established as God’s Temple, was no longer required. We have the apostolic teaching, and the very present Spirit of the Lord with us each and every moment. The sign gifts are no longer required. Is this a stance that should separate true brothers and sisters in the Lord? Absolutely not, for I know I have things in my life many may consider “blind spots”, areas that may need correcting or at least discussion. Let each man have his faith, as long as it is in the Messiah! Habakkuk 2:4 “Behold, his soul is puffed up; it is not upright within him, but the righteous shall live by his faith. So when a passage describing the “One who works miracles among you” comes up in my reading, do I automatically refer that to the old days, to the times when God was establishing the church, authenticating His new Temple? Yes and no. You see, I have lived under His leadership and care for over forty years, and have seen His gracious provision in many quiet miracles in my life. The restoration of my grandson from a drowning, to the timely supply of 87 cents needed to feed my first born for a night. I might claim there is no global need for miracles, no global need for signs, no global need for establishing the church. The church is here and the church is established globally. But that does not restrict the Lord from providing miracles out of a gracious heart to His people. The time of providing authentication has passed. His Body is alive and active globally, triumphing over His enemies. But for the individual saint, the one who is following hard after Him, or for that saint who may be struggling, considering his options and in a place of weakness, the Lord provides miracles according to His wisdom, according to His kindness and care for His people, according to His mercy. Is He a God who works miracles among you? Definitely! Open your eyes and be willing to see the work of God in your life!
