In Psalms chapter twenty-nine David said, “The voice of the LORD is upon the waters: the God of glory thunders: the LORD is upon many waters. The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty. The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars; yes, the LORD breaks the cedars of Lebanon. He makes them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn”, and in chapter twenty nine and verse seven of Psalms David said, “The voice of the LORD divides the flames of fire”, where we read,
The voice of the LORD divides the flames of fire.
The verse begins, “The voice of the LORD ...” David began with the words, “The voice” which means “the sound and noise of proclamation and thunder” “of the LORD” or “belonging to Jehovah who is the existing One and the proper name for the One True God” does the following. David said Jehovah God's “voice” does the following.
The verse consider, “... divides the flames of fire.” David added the word, “divides” or “cuts out, hews in pieces and splits” “the flames of fire” which means “the flaming tips pertaining to fiery fire”. David wrote how Jehovah God's “voice” hews and splits the fiery tips like the ends of lightning.
When we think through the words in this verse, we learn through David how Jehovah God's “voice” is so powerful that He is able to split and separate the tips of fiery lightning. God reigns and rules over His universe, and yet, He is able to have an intimate relationship with every person who yields to His Son Jesus. Jesus was sent into the world to die on the cross for the sins of mankind, and anyone who believes in, relies upon, trusts in and clings to Him will be forgiven of their sins and granted everlasting life with God in Heaven. The powerful “voice” of Jehovah God is able to whisper to the souls of those who are willing that “salvation” and relationship are available, and those who hear Him should surrender and receive.
Next time David says, “The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness”, so read ahead, and we shall join together then.
