Bible Reading- Psalm 135 - Proverbs 6
I finally finished all of Psalms today. This is a book that is great to read each chapter individually on an occasional but it is really difficult to sit down and read all 150 chapters in a short time period. There is no narrative going on so it is really difficult for me to stay concentrated on what I was reading. I also had to tackle all 176 verses of Psalm 119 and I can honestly tell you that I have no idea what it was about. I think I spent the majority of that chapter wondering when it was going to be over, but it just kept going and going. Overall, I really do enjoy the Psalms, but I think they are better when you just read a few at a time. Since it is Sunday, I will leave one of my favorite Psalms on here for you to read. I hope it provides a good focus for you as we go to worship God today.
Psalm 149
1 Praise the Lord !Sing to the Lord a new song.
Sing his praises in the assembly of the faithful.
2 O Israel, rejoice in your Maker.
O people of Jerusalem, exult in your King.
3 Praise his name with dancing,
accompanied by tambourine and harp.
4 For the Lord delights in his people;
he crowns the humble with victory.
5 Let the faithful rejoice that he honors them.
Let them sing for joy as they lie on their beds.
6 Let the praises of God be in their mouths,
and a sharp sword in their hands—
7 to execute vengeance on the nations
and punishment on the peoples,
8 to bind their kings with shackles
and their leaders with iron chains,
9 to execute the judgment written against them.
This is the glorious privilege of his faithful ones.
Praise the Lord !
-Michael
