I just love seeing varied attributes of God proclaimed together

through passages like this. He is strong with a mighty arm, He sits

on a foundation of righteousness and justice, and lovingkindness goes before Him

along with truth. Praise the Lord, I have found Him to be all these things to meπŸ’œ

Amen! Back in 2010, He urged me to put together a study on His attributes and character. The backbone verse He led me to was Psalm 18:2. Just in that verse, there are at least nine attributes. I learned to pay attention to every word in every verse, for each one is there for a reason. As for today's passage, righteousness, justice, and truth are the rock to which I cling in this world that is wholly unrighteous, shamefully without justice, and seeks to upend truth at every turn. So thankful for our unchanging Lord!

Those attributions also run the opposite direction: The Apostle Paul frequently cites O.T. verses, proverbs, and prophecies in his letters ... as does our Lord Jesus Himself.
