The purpose of Psalms is to provide
poetry for the expression of praise,
worship and confession to God.
Psalms Book 5 is similar to Deut.
Just as Deuteronomy was concerned
with God and his Word, these
psalms are anthems of praise and
thanksgiving for God & His Word.
This week we understand God better
thru His revelation of names, mostly
related to His ability to meet needs.
On Monday, we learn from
Ps 109 about God of My Praise.
On Tuesday, we learn from
Ps 118 about Lord God My Helper.
On Wednesday, we learn from
Ps 136 about God of Enduring Love.
On Thursday, we learn from
Ps 140 about My Strong Deliverer.
On Friday, we learn from Ps 144
about God My Stronghold.
Let us humble ourselves and pray
and seek His face…In Jesus’ name.
Backgrounder on Psalms 140-145:
Your enemies will either drive you
from God or drive you to God.
In David’s hour of need he found
a sure Refuge (Ps 140, Ps 142),
a trustworthy Friend (Ps 141),
a listening Ear (Ps 143),
A Strong Arm (Ps 144),
a merciful King (Ps 145);
and You Can Too !! Amen.
Lord, You bring us Thro Trouble:
Bless the Lord, who is my rock.
He Gives Me Strength… He is
my loving ally and my fortress,
my Stronghold, my deliverer.
He stands before me as a Shield,
& I Take Refuge in Him (Ps 144:1-2)
O Lord, what are mortals that You
should notice us, mere mortals
that You should care for us ?
For… our days are like a passing
shadow. Bend down the heavens,
Lord & Come Down (v3-5) Amen.
Father God, I am Your child!
Nothing can separate me from
Your love. You are my loving ally.
You are my hero with strong arm.
You are my impregnable fortress
and my unconquerable stronghold
of safety. And You Lord will shield
me when I take refuge in You.
In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.
Lord Jesus, we praise You for
Coming to earth so that we who
believe in You may know Your
forgiveness & experience Yr love.
You are Emmanuel God with us!
Altho as mere humans our days
are just like a passing shadow,
You Reached Down from high &
brought us out of darkness into
Your marvelous light. Amen.
Holy Spirit, I don’t know what is
going to happen in the next 24 hrs.
But I know that You will give me
the Strength I need to handle it
and deal with whatever challenge
I may face. I bless You Lord!
Give me Your peace as I look
to You for everything I need.
In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.
