Psalm 99 "You were a forgiving God to them"

Psalm for Today = 99:8-9

           "O Lord our God, you answered them;

                                       you were a forgiving God to them,

                                                but an avenger of their wrongdoings.

Exalt the Lord our God,

and worship at his holy mountain;

   for the Lord our God is holy!"

Comments:

I find this passage both encouraging and sobering. I hope you are also encouraged to read the first clause about how he answers and forgives. I learned early on in my Christian life to be a quick confessor...and God hears and forgives so faithfully!

Yet if I don't come to him in repentance then He will come to me in recompense.

He is holy and we should be glad that he is!

Let us all come together and worship him!
