Mountains – Psalms 125

Posted on November 9, 2020November 13, 2020 by Wen

Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion. It cannot be shaken; it remains forever. Jerusalem — the mountains surround her. And the LORD surrounds His people, both now and forever. The scepter of the wicked will not remain over the land allotted to the righteous, so that the righteous will not apply … Continue reading Mountains – Psalms 125 →

Singing Praise – Psalms 147:1

Posted on July 20, 2020August 5, 2020 by Wen

Hallelujah! How good it is to sing to our God, for praise is pleasant and lovely. Wow! The psalmist says so much in so few words. This is a truth that is difficult to even articulate. Few things bring such pleasing loveliness to a child of God as singing His praise. The power of music … Continue reading Singing Praise – Psalms 147:1 →

Compassionate King – Psalms 145:8-9

Posted on July 18, 2020July 18, 2020 by Wen

The Lord is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love. The Lord is good to all, and his mercy is over all that he has made.

Things Spoken – Psalms 141:3

Posted on July 15, 2020July 15, 2020 by Wen

Lord, set up a guard for my mouth; keep watch at the door of my lips. How many things do we simply destroy with our mouths? How many things have we spoken in anger or disgust or frustration or feigned concern that have led to the character assassination of another? With our lips we praise … Continue reading Things Spoken – Psalms 141:3 →

For His Own Sake – Psalms 103:10

He has not dealt with us according to our sins, Nor punished us according to our iniquities.

Older – Psalms 92:12-15

Posted on June 13, 2020June 13, 2020 by Wen

The righteous flourish like the palm tree and grow like a cedar in Lebanon. They are planted in the house of the LORD; they flourish in the courts of our God.

Greater Fear – Psalms 86:11

Posted on June 8, 2020June 8, 2020 by Wen

Teach me Your way, Yahweh, and I will live by Your truth. Give me an undivided mind to fear Your name. The fear of most everything in life comes so natural to me. It is my biggest failing.

Selective Deafness – Psalms 81:11-12

Posted on June 5, 2020June 5, 2020 by Wen

“But my people did not listen to my voice; Israel would not submit to me. So I gave them over to their stubborn hearts, to follow their own counsels.” For those who refuse to listen to God He allows them to reap the consequences of their stubborn deafness. He won't interfere with their free will. … Continue reading Selective Deafness – Psalms 81:11-12 →

When I am afraid, I will put my trust in You. In God, whose word I praise, In God I have put my trust; I shall not be afraid. What can mere man do to me?

Glorious All – Psalms 29:9

Posted on April 26, 2020June 13, 2020 by Wen

And in His temple everything says, “Glory!” To be in the presence of God is to be overwhelmed by His glory. Those who stood at the base of Mount Sinai were overwhelmed with fear because of His glory.

Your Great Name – Psalms 25:11

Posted on April 24, 2020 by Wen

Because of Your name, Yahweh, forgive my sin, for it is great. There is no other name through which we can receive salvation.

It is our identity in Him, the One who saves, that … Continue reading Your Great Name – Psalms 25:11 →
