Scripture Read:  Psalm 91, 92

Key Verse:  Psalm 92:15

“To declare that the Lord is upright; He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.”

Observation:

A Psalm of praise, love & worship! This psalm is a simple prayer beginning with praise & thanks, retelling the truths of what God has done. It ends with gratitude for having such a righteous and wonderful God. This Psalm is hidden with stories of hardships & victories. We
can only imagine what the person has been through to write such a confident & powerful prayer.

Application:

I love the confidence of this Psalm. I love the poetry of this Psalm. I can relate to this Psalm in the sense that I’ve
prayed this prayer many times before. I have times where I felt scared, nervous, worried or out of answers and God steps in to remind
me that it is through Him I can do all things. His power & grace are so immense and yet it’s crazy how we forget that. Myself included.

To think that we live each day with a Father who is so perfect, so loving, so forthright & has our best interest in mind at ALL TIMES is mind blowing.  Even when we fail Him, hurt Him, or ignore Him…. He’s there.  This Psalm is so simple, direct & beautiful because there’s an understanding.

Being a parent, one of the most pleasing, humbling moments is when your child does something you’ve been warning them
against. When you show your child tough love so they can find it on their own it is rewarding. They
fully understand what it is that you were trying to do and they respect it, learned from it and became a better person because of it. When they come to you & say, “thanks,” there’s a bond that happens and you know you did your job well.

Prayer:

Lord thank you for the love you have for us. Thank you for being a righteous God who gives us what we need. Thanks for being
our rock and showing us the way. You help correct us when we are wrong & straighten us when we go awry. You are our
Father, disciplinarian, caregiver and strength and for that we are blessed. Thank you for all that you do each & every day.
We love you & it is by your grace, we are saved. I pray for continued guidance & wisdom through our days. For understanding
 & forgiveness as we walk through our days. Amen
