"He will beautify the meek with salvation."
Psalm 149:4b Bread Box 7/27/10
The word beautify means to make more beautiful
or become beautiful like "Flowers beautify a
garden."
So how does God beautify our meekness with
salvation? Translations are helpful.
Psalm 149:4b
"He adorns the humble with victory"--RSV.
"He adorns the lowly with victory"--NAB.
"... conferring victory on us who are weak"--Jerus.
God decorates His people with victory with praises
of God in their mouth and sword in their hand (v.6)
to fight against the devil.
This is God's vision for us to be a victorious
people and a sword in our hand is the Word of God
who is our strength and healing power through our
bodies in Jesus' name.
So trust God today!
Song: Victory All the Time
1. They who know the Savior shall in Him be strong,
Mighty in the conflict of the right against the wrong;
This the blessed promise given in God's Word,
Doing wondrous exploits, they who know the Lord.
Chorus:
Victory! Victory! blessed blood-bo't (bought) victory!
Victory! Victory! vict'ry all the time;
As Jehovah liveth, strength divine He giveth
Unto those who know Him, vict'ry all the time.
(Vict'ry - victory) (Lelia Naylor Morris)
