Psalm 50

Psalm 50 (New International Version)

Psalm 50

A psalm of Asaph. ¹ The Mighty One, God, the LORD,
   speaks and summons the earth
   from the rising of the sun to where it sets.
² From Zion, perfect in beauty,
   God shines forth.
³ Our God comes
   and will not be silent;
a fire devours before him,
   and around him a tempest rages.
⁴ He summons the heavens above,
   and the earth, that he may judge his people:
⁵ “Gather to me this consecrated people,
   who made a covenant with me by sacrifice.”
⁶ And the heavens proclaim his righteousness,
   for he is a God of justice.^[a][b]
 7 “Listen, my people, and I will speak;
   I will testify against you, Israel:
   I am God, your God.
⁸ I bring no charges against you concerning your sacrifices
   or concerning your burnt offerings, which are ever before me.
⁹ I have no need of a bull from your stall
   or of goats from your pens,
¹⁰ for every animal of the forest is mine,
   and the cattle on a thousand hills.
¹¹ I know every bird in the mountains,
   and the insects in the fields are mine.
¹² If I were hungry I would not tell you,
   for the world is mine, and all that is in it.
¹³ Do I eat the flesh of bulls
   or drink the blood of goats?
 ¹⁴ “Sacrifice thank offerings to God,
   fulfill your vows to the Most High,
¹⁵ and call on me in the day of trouble;
   I will deliver you, and you will honor me.”
 ¹⁶ But to the wicked person, God says:
   “What right have you to recite my laws
   or take my covenant on your lips?
¹⁷ You hate my instruction
   and cast my words behind you.
¹⁸ When you see a thief, you join with him;
   you throw in your lot with adulterers.
¹⁹ You use your mouth for evil
   and harness your tongue to deceit.
²⁰ You sit and testify against your brother
   and slander your own mother’s son.
²¹ When you did these things and I kept silent,
   you thought I was exactly^[c] like you.
But I now arraign you
   and set my accusations before you.
 ²² “Consider this, you who forget God,
   or I will tear you to pieces, with no one to rescue you:
²³ Those who sacrifice thank offerings honor me,
   and to the blameless^[d] I will show my salvation.”

About Heart Attacks

There are other symptoms of an heart attack besides the pain on the left arm.
One must also be aware of an intense pain on the chin, as well as nausea and lots ofsweating,
however these symptoms may also occur less frequently.
. Note: There may be NO pain in the chest during a heart attack
The majority of people (about 60%) who had a heart attack during their sleep, did not wake up.
However, if it occurs, the chest pain may wake you up from your deep sleep.

If that happens, immediately dissolve two aspirins in your mouth and swallow them with a bit of water.
Afterwards:
          CALL 911
- say "heart attack!"
- say that you have taken 2 aspirins..
- phone a neighbor or a family member who lives very close by
- take a seat on a chair or sofa near the front door, and wait for their arrival and...

Psalm 49

Psalm 49 (New International Version)

Psalm 49

Psalm 49^[a]

    For the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. A psalm. ¹ Hear this, all you peoples;
   listen, all who live in this world,
² both low and high,
   rich and poor alike:
³ My mouth will speak words of wisdom;
   the meditation of my heart will give you understanding.
⁴ I will turn my ear to a proverb;
   with the harp I will expound my riddle:
 ⁵ Why should I fear when evil days come,
   when wicked deceivers surround me—
⁶ those who trust in their wealth
   and boast of their great riches?
⁷ No one can redeem the life of another
   or give to God a ransom for them—
⁸ the ransom for a life is costly,
   no payment is ever enough—
⁹ so that they should live on forever
   and not see decay.
¹⁰ For all can see that the wise die,
   that the foolish and the senseless also perish,
   leaving their wealth to others.
¹¹ Their tombs will remain their houses^[b] forever,
   their dwellings for endless generations,
   though they had^[c] named lands after themselves.
 ¹² People, despite their wealth, do not endure;
   they are like the beasts that perish.
 ¹³ This is the fate of those who trust in themselves,
   and of their followers, who approve their sayings.^[d]
14 They are like sheep and are destined to die;
   death will be their shepherd
   (but the upright will prevail over them in the morning).
Their forms will decay in the grave,
   far from their princely mansions.
¹⁵ But God will redeem me from the realm of the dead;
   he will surely take me to himself.
¹⁶ Do not be overawed when others grow rich,
   when the splendor of their houses increases;
¹⁷ for they will take nothing with them when they die,
   their splendor will not descend with them.
¹⁸ Though while they live they count themselves blessed—
   and people praise you when you prosper—
¹⁹ they will join those who have gone before them,
   who will never again see the light of life.
 ²⁰ People who have wealth but lack understanding
   are like the beasts that perish.

Psalm 48

Psalm 48^[a]

    A song. A psalm of the Sons of Korah. ¹ Great is the LORD, and most worthy of praise,
   in the city of our God, his holy mountain.
 ² Beautiful in its loftiness,
   the joy of the whole earth,
like the heights of Zaphon^[b] is Mount Zion,
   the city of the Great King.
³ God is in her citadels;
   he has shown himself to be her fortress.
 ⁴ When the kings joined forces,
   when they advanced together,
⁵ they saw her and were astounded;
   they fled in terror.
⁶ Trembling seized them there,
   pain like that of a woman in labor.
⁷ You destroyed them like ships of Tarshish
   shattered by an east wind.
 ⁸ As we have heard,
   so we have seen
in the city of the LORD Almighty,
   in the city of our God:
God makes her secure
   forever.^[c]
 9 Within your temple, O God,
   we meditate on your unfailing love.
¹⁰ Like your name, O God,
   your praise reaches to the ends of the earth;
   your right hand is filled with righteousness.
¹¹ Mount Zion rejoices,
   the villages of Judah are glad
   because of your judgments.
 ¹² Walk about Zion, go around her,
   count her towers,
¹³ consider well her ramparts,
   view her citadels,
that you may tell of them
   to the next generation.
 ¹⁴ For this God is our God for ever and ever;
   he will be our guide even to the end.

The Glory Ride Alabama 150 Years After the Civil War

Written by Gary Miller

What a Surprisingly Humbling experience watching this story unfold. It all started for me when a person in our Local church told me about the Glory Ride. The Glory ride 2011 can be found on the inter net at http://www.thegloryride.com/  look on the right hand side under the list of topics for the Alabama Ride. He went on and explained the purpose of this intervention was to break the back of prejudice that was still lingering, 150 years after the War Between the States.

So “The Glory Ride 2011 Alabama” began on Passover from the 4 opposing corners of Alabama and will meet up in Birmingham, with local black Pastors at a 24 hour prayer service that was to be going on in Birmingham. Then all four teams and the Birmingham group would go together to the Alabama State Capital in Montgomery to join in with the State Wide Day of Prayer.

As the Glory Ride was going on the opposition was incredible. Even the State of Alabama itself experienced over 64 tornados in one day and the city to Tuscaloosa was most likely the hardest hit with a tornado on the ground for over 100 miles, causing President Obama to state on National TV that He has never seen anything this devastating. 

Harvest, Alabama, was hit with an EF-5 tornado with winds over 230 miles per hour flattening stores and wiping buildings off the face of the earth.

As I was in the ER that night looking for Medical Shelter, unharmed by the storm, I heard a man calling on a land line phone tell his friends the story of what had happened. He went on and explained how the furry of the storm tour the house apart from around him and his family and how he had grabbed different members of his family to keep them from flying away in the sheer force of the winds and even had to put his dad in a scissor lock between his legs. Then, the men broke down in tears-- and asked his friend for prayer.

Alabama is the apple of God's Eye in America and God cleans house at home first. So wake up America and see what’s coming. If you do not humble yourself and pray then you could be looking at the same devastation that has come upon Alabama. Take this time and reflect and make things right with the Lord while He can still be found.

I tell you all this to say one Final thought.

Are you ready to meet JESUS?

He is coming.

It does not matter if you believe it or not.

He is still coming!

The Good News is there is Hope found in God’s Word.

Check out John 3:16

16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

"OPEN ARMS"-Michael W. Smith

Just Thinking

Let us all take some time to stop and speak to someone we would normally walk by and not think twice about.

Let’s take the time to see if we can make a difference in some one life.

Sometimes it something as small as a smile or it could be a trip to the store for the shut in that lives next door that could use some milk and bread.

Just some simple stuff to make life a little nicer, for everyone.

Just try it and see.

It just might just come back to you in a good way.

Psalm 45^[a]

    For the director of music. To the tune of “Lilies.” Of the Sons of Korah. A maskil.^[b] A wedding song. ¹ My heart is stirred by a noble theme
   as I recite my verses for the king;
   my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer.
 ² You are the most excellent of men
   and your lips have been anointed with grace,
   since God has blessed you forever.
 ³ Gird your sword on your side, you mighty one;
   clothe yourself with splendor and majesty.
⁴ In your majesty ride forth victoriously
   in the cause of truth, humility and justice;
   let your right hand achieve awesome deeds.
⁵ Let your sharp arrows pierce the hearts of the king’s enemies;
   let the nations fall beneath your feet.
⁶ Your throne, O God,^[c] will last for ever and ever;
   a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom.
⁷ You love righteousness and hate wickedness;
   therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions
   by anointing you with the oil of joy.
⁸ All your robes are fragrant with myrrh and aloes and cassia;
   from palaces adorned with ivory
   the music of the strings makes you glad.
⁹ Daughters of kings are among your honored women;
   at your right hand is the royal bride in gold of Ophir.
 ¹⁰ Listen, daughter, and pay careful attention:
   Forget your people and your father’s house.
¹¹ Let the king be enthralled by your beauty;
   honor him, for he is your lord.
¹² The city of Tyre will come with a gift,^[d]
   people of wealth will seek your favor.
¹³ All glorious is the princess within her chamber;
   her gown is interwoven with gold.
¹⁴ In embroidered garments she is led to the king;
   her virgin companions follow her—
   those brought to be with her.
¹⁵ Led in with joy and gladness,
   they enter the palace of the king.
 ¹⁶ Your sons will take the place of your fathers;
   you will make them princes throughout the land.
 ¹⁷ I will perpetuate your memory through all generations;
   therefore the nations will praise you for ever and ever.
