Psalm 93 The Lord reigns, He is clothed with majesty;
The Lord has clothed and girded
Himself with strength;
Indeed,
the world
is firmly established, it will not be moved. Your throne is established from of old;
You are from everlasting.
The floods have
lifted up, O Lord,
The
floods have lifted up their voice,
The
floods lift up their pounding waves.
More than the
sounds of many waters,
Than the mighty breakers
of the sea,
The Lord on high is mighty.
Your testimonies are fully confirmed;
Holiness
befits Your house,
O Lord, forevermore.
Five short verses make up this chapter.
It starts with establishing who God is and that he established the
world that cannot be moved, because it was spoken into place by his Word. That’s huge.
The earth isn’t going anywhere until the Creator says it’s time.
It then says he is from everlasting…he was, he is, and he will
be. That speaks of continuity and
steadfastness and dependability, something no human can give without His power.
That’s huge. That knowledge brings peace
and rest.
Then three times it mentions floods, BUT more than the sounds of
waters, the Lord is mighty. He is in
control. Waters can pound and they can
roar, but one Word from Him and they are quiet and they recede.
Finally, we read that holiness “befits” His house. It’s who he is. He’s a perfect match.
He establishes.
He is everlasting.
He is mighty.
Holiness befits him.
