His Consistenty is My Praise

In you, O LORD, I have put my trust and confidently taken refuge. You are my hope;

O Lord GOD, You are my trust and the source of my confidence from my youth.

Upon You have I relied and been sustained from my birth;

You are He who took me from my mother’s womb and You have been my benefactor from that day.

My praise is continually of You. .

My mouth is filled with Your praise

And with Your glory all day long. We will wait and hope continually,

And will praise You yet more and móre. I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord GOD [and in His strength];

I will make mention of Your righteousness, Yours alone.

O God, You have taught me from my youth,

And I still declare Your wondrous works and miraculous deeds. (Psalm 71:1,5-6,8,14,16-17) By experiencing your faithfulness and consistent love, its better than life itself, my lips will praise you. (Psalm 63:3) God's steadfast love and faithfulness are more valuable, desirable and precious than anything else in this life here on earth. In His steadfast love we can be steadfast in Him. So will I bless You as long as I live;

I will lift up my hands in Your name.

My soul [my life, my very self] is satisfied as with marrow and fatness,

And my mouth offers praises [to You] with joyful lips.

When I remember You on my bed,

I meditate and thoughtfully focus on You in the night watches,

For You have been my help,

And in the shadow of Your wings [where I am always protected] I sing for joy. My soul [my life, my very self] clings to You;

Your right hand upholds me. (Psalm 63:4-8)

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High Will remain secure and rest in the shadow of the Almighty [whose power no enemy can withstand]. (Psalm 91:1)

Forever, O LORD, Your word is settled in heaven [standing firm and unchangeable].

Your faithfulness continues from generation to generation; You have established the earth, and it stands [securely]. (Psalm 119:89-90)

He is the exact living image [the essential manifestation] of the unseen God [the visible representation of the invisible], the firstborn [the preeminent one, the sovereign, and the originator] of all creation. For by Him all things were created in heaven and on earth, [things] visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities; all things were created and exist through Him [that is, by His activity] and for Him. And He Himself existed and is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. [His is the controlling, cohesive force of the universe.] He is also the head [the life-source and leader] of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He Himself will occupy the first place [He will stand supreme and be preeminent] in everything. ( Colossians 1:15-18)
