03 October 2017 - He is
Jehovah! Manna by Dorothy Callies
Song: He Is Jehovah
1. He is Jehovah, God of
creation,
He is Jehovah, Lord God
Almighty,
The Balm of Gilead, the
Rock of Ages,
He is Jehovah, the God
that healeth thee.
Chorus:
Sing hallelujah, sing
hallelujah,
Sing hallelujah, sing
hallelujah!
He is Jehovah, Lord God
Almighty,
He is Jehovah, the God
that healeth thee.
2. He is the great “I AM,”
the God of Abraham,
Jehovah Shalom, the God of
Peace “I AM,”
The God of Israel, the
everlasting One,
He is Jehovah, the God
that healeth thee. (Chorus)
3. He’s your Provider, Jehovah
Jireh,
God of Salvation, God of
Messiah;
The Son he sent to you and
testified of Him.
He is Jehovah, the God
that healeth thee. (Chorus)
[Lyrics
and music: Betty Jean Robinson, singing His Praise]
Somehow
the song touched my heart and I researched the title, “Jehovah” and found two
of them that impressed me very much. Isaiah 12:2 “Behold, God is my salvation; I
will trust, and not be afraid: for the Lord JEHOVAH is my strength and my song;
he also is become my salvation.”
I
noticed the Isaiah chapter 12 has a short verses from 1-6. I read the
commentary that explain the theme, “IN THAT DAY.” It is the prophecy about the
future Messiah. God’s people will praise Him when the Messiah begins to reign
the whole world. Even now we are encouraged to pray and expect in faith and
hope, looking forward to His return on earth to reign in righteousness. When that
day comes, we will sing the song of praise.
In Isaiah 26:4 “Trust in the Lord for ever:
for in the Lord JEHOVAH is everlasting strength.” I noticed the verse 3
above verse 4: “Thou will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on
thee because he trusteth in thee.” Isaiah 26:3 has always been my favorite
verse, “You, God, will keep me in perfect peace when my mind is thinking of You
because I trusted You completely.” I interpret this to myself.
Again,
Isaiah chapter 26:1 quoted, “IN THAT DAY shall this song be sung in the land of
Judah . . .” This chapter is about song of rejoicing in JEHOVAH in the land of
Judah and their song concerns God’s triumphant of all evil and Christ’s
establishment of His kingdom.
Dorothy:
What this means to me? It was just a simple inspiration about the song. And the
verses that comes with it, it has truly blessed me so much more. Yes, there are
devotion books about the names of Jehovah, but the song was more blessed to me.
May
the Lord bless you today!
