Psalms for Life

Today my readings came from Psalms 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95

These Psalms are full of promises, wisdom, life "stuff". I'll call them Psalms for life. In other words, they speak for themselves...there's very little need to clarify, explain, dissect for understanding. For example here's a tour. If nothing else, meditate on these verses today:

Teach us to realize the brevity of life,
so that we may grow in wisdom. (Psalm 90:12 NLT)

Those who live in the shelter of the Most High
will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty. (Psalm 91:1 NLT)

It is good to give thanks to the Lord,
to sing praises to the Most High.
It is good to proclaim your unfailing love in the morning,
your faithfulness in the evening, (Psalm 92:1,2 NLT)

The Lord is king! He is robed in majesty.
Indeed, the Lord is robed in majesty and armed with strength.
The world stands firm and cannot be shaken. (Psalm 93:1 NLT)

But the Lord is my fortress;
my God is the mighty rock where I hide. (Psalm 94:22 NLT)

Come, let us sing to the Lord!
Let us shout joyfully to the Rock of our salvation.
Let us come to him with thanksgiving.
Let us sing psalms of praise to him.
For the Lord is a great God,
a great King above all gods. (Psalm 95:1-3 NLT)

Just from these, the reality is that our lives are short, and God is not limited by anything. We worship and give praise because of who he is. He is faithful, the King, our fortress, the great God above all other "gods".

Come, let us worship and bow down.
Let us kneel before the Lord our maker, (Psalm 95:6 NLT)

Peace
