Psalm 68:28
There's an ambiguity in the original wording, so the first part is sometimes translated "Command, God, Your strength." I don't have a problem with ambiguities and apparent contradictions; often God hides great treasure in them. This verse is an example.
Why would God command our strength, when it's His strength we're to depend on? Exactly! If that "exactly" doesn't make sense, you may not have watched Louie Giglio's "The Stand" sermon yet.
Even more fun, there's an ambiguity within "God has commanded your strength." God orders us to be strong [in Christ], but He is also the Commander, the One in charge of our strength (I posted it last night on the "To soak in" page.) Once you've seen the egg analogy, things should become clearer. [in Christ]. Is this not cool beyond belief?
But enough of my rambling on a nice Saturday morning. Go check out the egg thing.
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord
and in the power of His might.
