PSALM 93 WHAT THE LORD ESTABLISHED SHALL NOT BE MOVED
The LORD reigns; he is robed in majesty;
the LORD is robed; he has put on strength as his belt.
Yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved.
2 Your throne is established from of old;
you are from everlasting.
3 The floods have lifted up, O LORD,
the floods have lifted up their voice;
the floods lift up their roaring.
4 Mightier than the thunders of many waters,
mightier than the waves of the sea,
the LORD on high is mighty!
5 Your decrees are very trustworthy;
holiness befits your house,
O LORD, forevermore. – Psalm 93:1-5

A poem inspired by this psalm by ILMA
What the Lord creates, he gives it a solid foundation
If he has chosen someone, he equips that person
The Lord is sovereign; he is there before the world was made
Whatever he makes, it is for the purpose of giving him glory and praise
He created the waters, the sky and the earth and all living creatures
He made man in his own image so that he will have domain over his creation.
God’s throne is founded from ancient days and it is everlasting
No other gods are like him for he alone can create anything out of nothing
He is Almighty and powerful, he is all-knowing and all-seeing
If you serve the majestic God, you will be free and be discerning
If the Lord has chosen you, he established you and you shall not be moved
You will withstand trials and suffering for he will always be with you.
