Read Psalm 50.
All day long, God is speaking. He is not silent. The message of this Psalm is clear, blunt, and firm.
What is He saying? (vv.1-4)
1. Concerning
the Owner (vv.5-11)
Everything belongs to Me. What you are offering to Me is only what I gave you.
2. Concerning
the Offering (vv.12-15)
I am
self-sufficient. I do not need anything.
What I want from you are expressions of your appreciation and thanks. Then, your offerings will mean something and your prayers will be answered.
3. Concerning
the Others (vv.16-21)
Because of your rejection of Me and your sinful behavior, you have no rights. Therefore, I rebuke you and charge you in judgment.
4. Concerning
the Options (vv.22-23)
If you continue
to disregard Me, there is only severe and eternal punishment waiting.
If you choose to live a life of thanksgiving to Me for who I AM and what I have done, there is eternal deliverance for you.
Are you
listening?
