HOW PRECIOUS AND GREAT IS THE SUM OF YOUR JEALOUS THOUGHTS
Psalms 139:17, KJV
"17 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!"
Yesterday, we saw how God's thoughts are part of God's jealous systems to us. We saw they were thoughts of good, peace or welfare and their end result is to give us an expected end. God thinks them to have us blessed and have a life not different from the blessed one already highlighted in the Bible. However, one thing was kept away from the disbursement of revelation yesterday. It was that these thoughts are precious and then numerous. What a thing! We all know what asset is in this our world. Asset is precious or of great worth. Asset includes money which is a means for all exchange on earth. Now, imagine your parents having left you very valuable assets which includes landed properties, cryptocurrency etc and then having it in large quantity. What sort of millionaire will that make you? You have what is valuable but you also have it in large quantity. That hints at how great you'll be. Such are God's thoughts.
"Precious" in the sense that they're highly valuable. You can't and shouldn't despise them. They're given to govern your results. You see, God's thoughts which are tangibilities are revelation of what you can become. They are important intentions of God that pertains to the becoming of your destiny. If you're detached from these precious thoughts of God or vice versa, you'll see that there's no expected end or destiny in front. The fact that they're thoughts of great worth is what reveals your destiny as of great worth as each of them unfolds and finds fulfilment.
However, these thoughts are just much. They are very valuable thoughts, that any should covet because they hold the force to lift someone from the dunghill to the throne, however, many of such thoughts there be also. That's why that place says, "how great is the sum of them!" The Psalmist was actually alarmed that they're numerous. He just exclaimed at their quantity after finding out. God's thoughts covers every aspect of your life. There are God's thoughts for your finances, family, children, spouse, health, longevity, body parts, properties etc. All these spheres that need to be covered makes God's thoughts numerous. No wonder the Psalmist says, "if I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee."
In counting these precious or great thoughts, it's breath taking. Look at how numerous they are. Thoughts manifesting as God's promises and prophecies for each day you live. Brethren, which father cares like God as to have such precious and numerous thoughts towards His children? Our earthly fathers as we know have a lot planned out for us. If you can't envisage how much they have laid out for us, begin to think of how much thoughts you've begun to think towards your own children. How much more God? His thoughts are not only precious but the sum of them is uncountable. They are thoughts that would continue to be unleashed daily until your old age and then passing away. Even at your passing away, God's thoughts are still finding fulfilment. I pray that these tangible thoughts of God which reveal His jealousy over you (in that they've been given to set us in distinction) and how much He wants you enjoy and not suffer shall comfort you. If you're currently at a level and it seems things aren't working, a spouse isn't coming for instance etc. Just search the scriptures and look for God's thoughts on that area of life, lift it to God in prayer. Thoughts of God are not meant to be redundant or stay just as written words in the Bible, they're rather to find expression in our lives. When God says, "I set the solitary in families (Psalm 68:6), He obviously has revealed His thoughts to all His children. It means there's a commitment of God to you to get you married irrespective of how much you've been afore rejected. God's thoughts are precious, great and important to our earthly comfortable living. Thank God also they aren't one, two or three. It's a long list that covers our entire ramifications and each day of our lives. Tap them!
PRAYER: I am the head and not the tail. I shall tend upward only and not downward
ACTION POINT: Find a Scripture to confess that has to do with your need.
BIBLE IN A YEAR: Job 37:1-39:30; 2 Corinthians 4:13-5:10; Psalm 44:9-26; Proverbs 22:13
