I often hear of others who KNOW they are saved. They know
they have Jesus as their Savior, but they admit that they really don’t have
much of a personal relationship with Him. I am afraid this is something all of
us must develop. Relationships are developed by spending time with each other
and sharing each other’s hearts. Please bear these in mind as you consider this
simple outline of the 63rd Psalm.
Note the title of the Psalm - [[A Psalm of David, when he
was in the wilderness of Judah.]]
David was on the run…again! It is hard for us to imagine
living this way. If nothing else, it would get our prayer lives on track. But
really, aren’t we all on the run? We are running in circles, running to keep
up, running to pursue dreams, running from our past, running to put out fires,
running, running, running.
May I suggest that, rather than running, we become active in
productive ways, building our relationship with Him? Here is what we find David
actively doing, while on the run…
We find him:
Seeking 1
Thirsting 1
Longing 1
Seeing 2
Praising 3
Blessing 4
Lifting 4
Remembering 6
Meditating 6
Rejoicing 7
Following 8
Rejoicing 11
Swearing 11
Glorying 11
Let’s actively pursue the God Who is always pursuing us.
