5/23/14 Psalm 147: 13, 14 The Lord Strengthens Your Gates and Blesses Your Sons


Psalm 147: 13, 14 (NAS)

For He has strengthened the bars of your gates; He has blessed your sons within you.He makes peace in your borders; He satisfies you with the finest of the wheat.
 
Psalm 147: 13, 14 (NLT)

For he has fortified the bars of your gates and blessed your children within you. He sends peace across your nation and satisfies you with plenty of the finest wheat.

Adonai the Lord fastens Himself to you and makes you strong and courageous. He has repaired and fortified your weak points, placing strong bars and bolts over your gates. There is no opening or door that cannot restrain your enemies from entering, for God has made you a conqueror. He will encourage you and establish you, so that you stand constant. You will hold fast, for the Lord has hardened you against any onslaughts. You will not melt away like wax in the heat of the battle. You will behave valiantly, giving glory to God.

Even before your children were born, they were blessed within you, because the Lord has blessed you. The abundance that you experience also belongs to them. They will continue to build your family name after you. Like you, they will also be fruitful and multiply.


You need not fear, for the Lord God Almighty has marked the border of your territory with peace. He has bound health and prosperity to all of your space. He has set landmarks all about you to keep you safe and well. His favor rests upon you and you are restored completely. He has made you whole.


In every area of your life, you are full and satisfied. You always have plenty of the riches that Adonai has to offer. Your storehouses are filled to overflowing with the best and the finest grain. God only gives you His choicest part and you grow fat with what He gives!
