Tag: Supporting others in Christ - Psalm 33-35

Psalms 34:3
O magnify the Lord with me,
And let us exalt His name together.

Psalms 35:27
Let them shout for joy and rejoice, who favor my vindication;
And let them say continually, “The Lord be magnified,
Who delights in the prosperity of His servant.”

Tag:  Supporting Others in Christ

In the prophecy of Amos we read the following:

Amos 3:3
Do two men walk together unless they have made an appointment?

Amos is prophesying for God to the nation of Israel.  His point is that Israel can't expect to walk with God if they have not come to some agreement as to where that walk should start and should end.  Israel was rebelling against God and therefore NOT able to walk with God.  In the two verses from Psalms, above, we read that the desire of the writer is that he has someone who will walk with him for the purpose of Magnifying God.   Both come from Psalms write by David.  David knew what it was like to walk alone.   He knew that unless he could find companionship centered AROUND GOD, he would not survive.   Believers all need someone to walk with us and to glorify God with us.   When we need vindication we need to know that we have someone who is praying and is looking to say, "Let the Lord be magnified."   Magnifying God is allowing Him to grow larger and larger in your life, in your walk, in your conversation; in every aspect of your life.  Having someone with you to do that is the most awesome of relationships.
