Unsearchable Greatness

UNSEARCHABLE GREATNESS< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>Psalm 145

 

A praise of David in Psalm 145:1-3, ÒI will extol You, my God, O king; and I will bless Your name forever and ever 2Every day I will bless You, and I will praise Your name forever and ever. 3 Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; and His greatness is unsearchable.Ó Indeed and in truth, the greatness of God is unsearchable. If there is anyone that is the most qualified to demonstrate and appreciate the goodness and mercy of God, David is the one. By virtue of different encounters that he had while he was alive, it could be said of him that he had it all with God, in God and for God. From shepherd boy to the killing of Goliath; from the killing of Goliath to the throne as king; from king to the killing of UriahÕs wife and eventually getting married to UriahÕs wife. From his sin and sinning, he lost it before God. God being a God that is merciful he forgave David, but the consequences were there for David to deal with all the days of His life. DavidÕs life is a testimony of GodÕs goodness and mercy. How can it be explained better when a shepherd boy woke up in the morning and before the day was over he became a giant killer and the whole nation lifted him high? Also when he became anointed through Samuel, the way to the throne was opened up for him. 1 Samuel 16:13-16, ÒThen Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the midst of his brothers; and the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel arose and went to Ramah. 14 But the Spirit of the LORD departed from Saul, and a distressing spirit from the LORD troubled him. 15 And SaulÕs servants said to him, ÒSurely, a distressing spirit from God is troubling you. 16 Let our master now command your servants, who are before you, to seek out a man who is a skillful player on the harp. And it shall be that he will play it with his hand when the distressing spirit from God is upon you, and you shall be well.Ó  David was the skillful player that was available to provide skillful music for Saul. When He anoints you He will back you up and grant you motion to get to the center of your calling. Without any struggle or thoughts of how it would be for David getting to the throne, the Lord opened up His avenue for the shepherd boy to get to the throne. How can David not know how to be constant and continual in praising Him? Begin and continue to praise Him, He will raise you for His glory and He will get you to the expected end.
