Psalm 18:3 -- I will call upon Jehovah


I will call upon Jehovah, who is worthy to be praised. -- Psalm 18:3,  American Standard Version.

No matter what our circumstances may be in life, we should always remember to call upon Jesus' God, Jehovah (Micah 5:4), in thanks and gratitude for what we have, whether it be little or great abundance. To the consecrated child of God, it is not something that should be put in the back of the mind to do when we have nothing else to do. It is a matter that should be of constant concern at all times, no matter what we are doing. To call upon Jehovah would thus signify a heart unity with Jehovah's purposes as He has revealed them in the Bible.

Only those, however, who are truly consecrated can reach a high level of appreciation of how Jehovah is worthy to be praised. In a way, all of us will, in our sinful flesh, fall short of such appreciation of Jehovah's worthiness. It is only as we walk by the spirit as new creatures in Christ, and not according to the sinful flesh, that such can be fully appreciated.

Nevertheless, for the regenerated child of God, the only way to call upon Jehovah is in the name of His Son, Jesus. There is no other way that God has given for us to come to Him.
