    Christian Devotional – March 17, 2024

    Psalm and Praise, Day 74 Feels like forever. Read Psalm chapter 74. When it comes to the question of how long until God brings justice and rights all the wrongs, it can feel like that is taking forever. Why does God not just make it right immediately? I’m sure he has a lot of reasons. But it still doesn’t feel right. Ultimately, we may find ourselves asking God exactly what the psalmist did. We can take confidence that God will make it right at just the right time.

    Psalm and Praise, Day 73 How do we respond when we see the wicked seem to prosper? Read Psalm chapter 73. I will admit, there are times that really struggle with what I perceive as the success of others who have no integrity and no regard for the commands of God. I can become jealous of what they seem to have that I don’t think I have. So often I do end up feeling like I am a failure when I compare myself to others. Yet, that is not God’s definition of success. God sees me as I am and he understands my desires. He helps me achieve what will…

    Psalm and Praise, Day 72 The king and the Lord. Read Psalm chapter 72. Reading this psalm, we see that it is a prayer for the king of the land. The desire is that the king would be a reflection of the Lord and that the Lord would bless him and give him everything he needs to be a successful and productive King. However, that does not change who God is and the role that God plays. While the King is the leader, the Lord is the master over all. The King owes everything to to the Lord. We owe everything to the Lord. We need to pray for our…

    Psalm and Praise, Day 71 Hope. Read Psalm chapter 71. We need to have hope. When we think about all the things that we go through, hope is a driving force that keeps us moving forward through it all. True hope is only found in the Lord. He is the one who will fulfill that hope. When we look around us in the world, we can see many things that will try to give us hope. They promise hope. However, only the Lord can truly deliver on his promises. When we are hoping in the Lord we will not be disappointed. Are we placing our hope in him, and in…

    Psalm and Praise, Day 70 Ever feel like you’re drowning? Read Psalm chapter 70. I feel like I am drowning and I know that God can help me. When he talks about the poor and the needy, he doesn’t just mean material poverty. We can be poor in so many ways. God is my deliverer. He will save me. I need to rest and rely on him.

    Psalm and Praise, Day 69 How do our hearts live? Read Psalm chapter 69. So many good phrases throughout this psalm, but the idea of our heart living through the praise we give God was something that stuck out to me today. So many people feel that they are overwhelmed and that they’re depressed and struggling with issues of the heart. How can we get our heart to live? We are to seek and praise the Lord. As we are glad, God rejoices and restores our heart. Are we allowing God to restore us as we praise him today?

    Psalm and Praise, Day 68 Demonstration of God’s power. Read Psalm 68. So many places and people today want to see God’s power. However, what they want to see is God do miraculous and amazing things that they want him to do. They don’t necessarily want to see God move in power doing something he wants to do. What do we think about God’s power? Do we recognize that it is a display of his glory and it is for his honor? When we think of God’s power, it is always accompanied with his glory. God would never display his power without a purpose to reveal or declare his glory.…

    Psalm and Praise, Day 67 Why does God bless us? Read Psalm chapter 67. So often we pray and ask God’s blessing. We want God to bless what we do. We want God to bless what we say. We want God to bless the people around us. But why do we ask for God’s blessing and why should God bless us? God blesses us so that we will spread his name and share his message and that others will bless him and praise him. God’s blessing is never about us, it is always about him. When God bless us, our first response is to praise God and our second response…

    Psalm and Praise, Day 66 Testing and refining. Read Psalm chapter 66. God tests us, but he does it with purpose. God tests us so that we become more like him. He is refining us so that we lose the impurities and sin in our lives. Are we allowing him to test us? Are we allowing him to work in our lives to make us more like him?

    Psalm and Praise, Day 65 What are words or phrases that we use to describe God? Read Psalm chapter 65. As we see here, the psalmist describes him as the one who answers prayer. When we think about all that God does for us, we need to remember that he does answer our prayers. He does hear us. He does listen. We can call on him because he is the o e who answers prayers.
