The Glory of God

Monday, September 29, 2008

I was reading Matthew Henry's commentary on Psalm 146, and was so encouraged by these words...

"It ought not to pass without remark that the name of Jehovah is repeated here five times in five lines, to intimate that it is an almighty power (that of Jehovah) that is engaged and exerted for the relief of the oppressed, and that it is as much the glory of God to succour those that are in misery as it is to ride the heavens by His name. (see also Psalm 68)"

It is as much the glory of God to succour those that are in misery as it is to ride the heavens by His name! Isn't this amazing?! God's glory is shown in his compassion and mercy towards the needy, as much as it is when He "rides the heavens". We have such a compassionate and loving God. Glory be to the God of the heavens!
