The Voice of the Lord

This Psalm was evidently composed by king David after a tremendous wind storm came to the land of Israel and destroyed many cedar trees there. David was so impressed with the Lord's power and His glory in this storm, that he thought it appropriate, and the Spirit led him to do this, to pen this Psalm, to show people in all generations what the right response to storms would be. And so we ourselves, having experienced a mighty storm that took place here recently in our area, we need to rightly respond to the Lord's having preserved us through it. Therefore, I believe that it will be good for us today, to think together about what we can learn, about God and His ways, so that our faith in Him might be increased.
The question that we should ask ourselves at a time like this, is – Do I hear the voice of the Lord in the physical storms that God brings, and what does it lead me to do? To answer that question, let me ask 3 other relevant questions which I believe will help us to understand the voice of God to us in this storm. 1st of all – Has this great storm caused you to worship God and to think of the beauty of holiness? 2nd – Has this great storm caused you to reflect on God's attribute of His power to judge men and to save them? And 3rd – Has this great storm caused you to say – Glory?
