Righteous

I love the last four verses of Psalm 92 in the Amplified Bible. They describe us as God’s uncompromisingly righteous ones.

Let’s make this our confession today.

I as the uncompromisingly righteous shall flourish like the palm tree.
I shall be long lived, stately, upright, useful and fruitful.
I shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
I am majestic, stable, durable, and incorruptible.

I am planted in the house of the Lord.
I flourish in the courts of my God.

I grow in grace.
I shall bring forth fruit in old age.
I shall be full of sap, of spiritual vitality.
I shall be rich in verdure (the vigorous, growing condition) of trust, love and contentment.

I am a living memorial to show that the Lord is upright and faithful to His promises.
He is my Rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.

What a beautiful confession to make over our lives. I see as I grow older that I shall be full of spiritual vitality, vigorous and growing in trusting God, full of His love and contentment. What statements of Truth these are from God’s Word. We shall grow in grace. We flourish in God. We live long. We are useful and bear fruit. We are stable and durable and incorruptible with the incorruptible seed of the Word of God.

Let’s top it off today with verse 10 in this Psalm.
My horn, emblem of excessive strength and stately grace, You have exalted like that of a wild ox; I am anointed with fresh oil.
