Peaceful Praise: The Heavens Declare - Scott Brenner

Music video embedded below commentary

John 16:33 [Jesus said] Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.”
 -----------------------------

Hi!

There's a nice rain in the Phoenix area this morning — the first we've had in over 100 days — and so it's been an enjoyable start to my day!

--------------------------

As we come to the end of yet another year, I hope you've been Blessed and surrounded by the Love of God and family and friends.

Someone shared the scripture from John 16:33 on twitter recently — as seen in the image above — and it made an impact on me and rang in my spirit.

So if, like me, your year has been filled with both good and bad, we must always remember that this life is brief in comparison with the lives that await us — for those who believe in Jesus as Messiah and Lord — who are granted to spend eternity in His presence through faith in Him.

Revelation 21:1-4 

Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “ 

“Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God.

4 "He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”

----------------------


Recently I heard an amazing song by an artist I'd never come across before.  

"The Heaven's Declare", by Scott Brenner, is a very atmospheric and peaceful worship song — and uses the words from Psalm 19:1-6.

It's a beautiful passage that reminds that God's creation points directly back to Him.

I hope you will feel Blessed by this beautiful music!

The Heavens Declare the Glory of God, Psalm 19:1-6 (NKJV) 

The heavens declare the glory of God
And the firmament shows His handiwork

Day unto day utters speech
And night unto night reveals knowledge

There is no speech nor language where their voice is not heard 
Their line has gone out through all the earth 
And their words to the end of the world

In them He has set a tabernacle for the sun
Which is like a bridegroom coming out of His chamber
And rejoices like a strong man to run its race

Its rising is from one end of heaven
And its circuit to the other end
And there is nothing hidden from its heat
The heavens declare the glory of God

Thanks so much for stopping by!

May God Richly Bless you! 

Jesus is LORD!

Seek Him!

9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.

  1. Your post is beautiful Jephyr, and the song was lovely. I love this verse that you have included, it is one of my favourite verses:-
    "He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”

    God bless you for sharing.
