Psalms 146-150 – Day 21

According to this verse, the celestial bodies are eternal. God established them that way. There is one other thing in our Bibles which is spoken about as eternal and 3 of the gospels record it for us. Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away.

Psalm 148:6

Let them praise the name of the Lord, for at His command they were created, and He established them for ever and ever – He issued a decree that will never pass away.

The Thought

This verse is encouraging the things, the sun and moon, shining stars, the highest heavens and waters above the skies in the previous verse which we read yesterday, to praise God! It is something that non-believers would think crazy! But we must remember that Jesus told the complaining pharisees that if ordinary people didn’t praise Him, the stones would (Luke 19:40)!

According to the verse today, the celestial bodies are eternal. God established them that way. There is one other thing in our Bibles which is spoken about as being eternal and 3 of the gospels record it for us. Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away (Matthew 24:35, Mark 13:31, Luke 21:33).

Whatever Jesus said two thousand years ago is still true today and will be until the end of time. We must learn and remember, and speak aloud His words, reminding ourselves of them throughout the day. Jesus told us that the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live (John 5:25).

Just as Jesus went to hell and spoke to the residents there in his day, in the same miraculous way His words, spoken aloud by His people, can speak to the spiritually dead in our day!

Action

Read aloud some of the Bible verses mentioned today, and pray that the words will have a far-spreading, long-lasting spiritual effect.

Think about the fact that our earthly world will pass away. Does that fill you with fear, or excitement? Or do you prefer not to think about things you can’t possibly imagine?
