Reflection on Psalm Book Four

Hearing God through His Word

Psalms Book Four (90-106)
mainly written by unknown authors
is similar to the book of Numbers.
Just as Numbers discusses the
relationship of the nation of Israel
to surrounding nations, these
psalms often mention the
relationship of God’s overruling
kingdom to the other nations.
Because we are citizens of the
kingdom of God, we can keep
the events and troubles of earth
in the proper perspective.

On Monday, we learn from Ps 90
that God Is Our Dwelling Place.
On Tuesday, we learn from Ps 91
that God Shields & Cares For Us.
On Wed, we learn from Ps 95/96
that God Is Our Maker & Saviour.
On Thu we learn from Ps 99/100
that God Is Forgiving & Merciful.
On Friday, we learn from Ps 103
that God Blesses Us With Benefits.
On Saturday, we learn from Ps 105
that God’s Plan Surely Will Not Fail.

Let us humble ourselves and pray
and seek His face. Help us O God
be Christ’s disciples who Hear You:
For You are our Dwelling Place
and that You Shield & Care For Us.
For You are our Maker & Saviour
and also Forgiving and Merciful.
For You Bless us with Benefits
and that Your Plan Will Never Fail.
In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.
