Psalm 120 - Psalm of Steel by Robert Dean Steel


Oh God you have provided many examples in the Word for us.
David was a man after your heart.
Gideon was a mighty man of valor.
Elijah was a prophet who defied a king.
Isaiah was a statesman prophet.
Amos was a shepherd prophet and a Full Gospel Businessman.
In recent times you have given us Barnabus a man of encouragement.

Barnabus was a man of great sympathy. 
He was broad minded.  He saw people as they could be.
He loved to encourage and promote forgiveness.
The Spirit filled and led his life.
He was man who had a wonderful demeanor.
He inspired others to be an influence for Christ.
His life was one that demonstrated trustworthiness.

Barnabus understood that life was more than possessions.
Yet when he appear before others he represented the Lord.
No man was adapted to missionary service like him.
He sponsored the unlikely and promoted others before himself.
He knew by exalting others the Lord would be glorified.
Truly the Lord used him to support others.
Oh how we need people like him today.  Would you be like him in your world?
