Psalm 113

Psalm 113:7 The Lord raises the needy from dust, lifts the poor from the ash heap

Here, this verse is mentioning that through God alone can someone be lifted from the dust. He can bring someone from the lowest point of their lives. This could mean the literal poor and destitute, as it says many places in the Bible. It could mean the people who have lost their faith, and are struggling with something in lift,  and scrambling to find something to fill their needs. Our story isn’t over. God wants to lift us to sit with princes! But this also may foretell God lifting Jesus from the dead. Only God could lift him to heaven. Only God can lift the spiritually dead. Praise his goodness. Let him lift us.

“Morning, noon and night, our God is worthy of praise. He is unchanging and always worthy of continual praise.
List 5 things you can praise the Lord for today and then pause and give him praise right where you are. He is worthy.”

Praise the Lord for my friends, who will drop everything to help when needed.
