Psalm 96: 7, 8  Give to the Lord, O families of the peoples, Give to the Lord glory and strength. Give to the Lord the glory due His name; Bring an offering, and come into His courts. How does one give “glory and strength” to the Lord; the Lord Who is all glorious and mighty in power?  Also, this…

Psalm 95: 1   Oh come, let us sing to the Lord! Let us shout joyfully to the Rock of our salvation. The beginning of this Psalm starts better than it ends.  The conclusion is a stark reminder of Israel’s hardened hearts that led to rebellion that cost a generation the Promised Land. In verses 3 –…

Psalm 94: 17   Unless the Lord had been my help, My soul would soon have settled in silence. One of the most subtle weapons in the arsenal the enemy of our soul has is the attempt for us to be “settled in silence”. Onslaughts of the enemy have goals in addition to death and destruction, especially for…

Psalm 93: 4   The Lord on high is mightier Than the noise of many waters, Than the mighty waves of the sea. When the Lord is dressed in strength (vs. 1), parameters that He has set cannot be moved.  Floods may challenge, crisis may loom, waves can be boisterous but He is greater still.  There may be…

Psalm 92: 13   Those who are planted in the house of the Lord Shall flourish in the courts of our God.

The joyful sound described was…

Psalm 91: 9 Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge, Even the Most High, your dwelling place, Vs. 14  Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him on high, because he has known My name. Many of the blessings of God available to us are…

Psalm 90: 12   So teach us to number our days, That we may gain a heart of wisdom. Life is filled with “time lines”; school, college, marriage, employment, releasing children into their destiny, retirement and death. The meekest man on the earth, Moses understood we need to make our days count.  Every day matters as it…

Psalm 89: 1, 2   I will sing of the mercies of the Lord forever; With my mouth will I make known Your faithfulness to all generations.

Psalm 86: 11, 12  Teach me Your way, O Lord; I will walk in Your truth; Unite my heart to fear Your name. I will praise You, O Lord my God, with all my heart, And I will glorify Your name forevermore. Learning the Lord’s “way” has an incredible personal benefit often unrecognized, a united heart. …
