God of Demonstration

He who brings an offering of praise and thanksgiving honors and glorifies me; and he who orders his way aright - who prepares the way that I may show him - to him I will demonstrate the salvation of god. Psalm 50:23 (AMP)

God is a God of demonstration! He did not explain Himself nor did He offer any apologies for being God. He simply spoke everything into existence out of nothing; demonstrating that He is God. From creation He moved to demonstrating His ability to judge with the Great Flood and then confused the languages of the people when they sought to become like Him.

Approximately 35 times the Old Testament shows God demonstrating who He is. Then beginning with Joshua He stopped the waters of the Jordan and through Jonah where He smote the gourd He demonstrated His being God 52 more times. There were 35 miraculous demonstrations by Jesus and another 16 by the disciples recorded for our information.

We can miss the power of demonstration in our verse for today. Let's take another look at it:

Whoever sacrifically offereth, zabach praise, towdah, with hands extended in adoration and praise (in the midst of the worshipping congregation) glorifieth, kawbad, glorifies and honors Me: and to him that, suwm, ordereth, steadfastly commits, his conversation, dehrek, course of life, mode of action, path aright, kuwn, ,faithfully and properly will I shew, rawaw, illuminate and reveal the liberty, deliverance, prosperity, and safety that salvation, yehshah, includes and God, eloheem, provides.

See what your demonstration of sacrificial praise will bring to you? Not only is God a God of demonstration but He rewards the person who demonstrates their love for Him.
