Psalms 86-89 Buddy the Elf; Lies make a bad throne!!

June 30th, Psalms 86-89

       It's hard to find a good throne. Not sure if you've spent much time shopping for one. They are pretty custom, originals. People will sit on almost anything. It reminds me of Buddy the Elf, when addressing the imposter Santa at the store..."you sit on a throne of lies." Then proceeds to pummel Santa in the Department store in front of all the kids! Funny in a movie!
       World history is easy to get a hold of. We've all studied some parts of world history. Know rulers, kings, monarchs, dictators, presidents and all sorts of leaders with great thrones and some with no titles.
       The verse that snatched my attention out of the blue was Psalm 89:14. "Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne; steadfast love and faithfulness go before you."
       Chances are you that you are leading at this point in your life. It might be from an official position, or the simple fact that someone looks up to you. What's your throne made of? I'm not asking for the construction materials. God's throne is made up of that which is right, that which is just. From that thrones pours out a blessing of love and faithfulness.
        The materials that make up our throne will also be a source that comes out from us. Buddy was concerned that Santa wasn't Santa and lies shouldn't be a throne that we sit on. I think Buddy is onto something, I'm certain that God is!
