Read

29:10 David praised the Lord before the entire assembly:*

“O Lord God of our father Israel, you deserve praise forevermore! 29:11 O Lord, you are great, mighty, majestic, magnificent, glorious, and sovereign* over all the sky and earth! You have dominion and exalt yourself as the ruler* of all. 29:12 You are the source of wealth and honor;* you rule over all. You possess strength and might to magnify and give strength to all.* 29:13 Now, our God, we give thanks to you and praise your majestic name!

29:14 “But who am I and who are my people, that we should be in a position to contribute this much?* Indeed, everything comes from you, and we have simply given back to you what is yours.”

Record

NET: You possess strength and might to magnify and give strength to all.
NASB: and bin Your hand is power and might; and it lies in Your hand to make great and to strengthen everyone.

Reflect

• He’s the provider of what my soul needs and wants, because he owns what my soul needs and wants.
• He’s the only provider because only he owns these things.
• Therefore, it makes no sense to look for these things elsewhere, from people and things that don’t possess it in the first place. Furthermore, it makes all the sense in the world to seek them from him, since he owns it all.
• God is pleased to give these things to those who seek them.

Respond

• Whenever I feel a “want,” may I first check it with you to see if it’s a godly want, and then seek it from you, since you possess all that my soul needs.
