Blessed Be the LORD God of Israel

Today’s Daily Bible Reading is from Psalm 72:13-20. David continues talking about Christ sparing the needy and redeeming their souls from deceit and violence. He says, “Precious will their blood be in His sight.” Why can He say this? I believe it is because their sins have been forgiven and their blood has been cleansed by the blood of the lamb, Jesus Christ.

Prayers will be made to Jesus continually and He will be praised daily. There will be plenty of food to eat. The people will flourish like the grass. His name will endure forever. All of the nations will call Him blessed. Blessed is the name of the LORD. The whole earth will be filled with His glory. Verse 20 tells us this is the end of the prayers of David, the son of Jesse.

Daily Bible Reading:

Psalm 72:13-20

13 He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall save the souls of the needy.
14 He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious shall their blood be in his sight.
15 And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba: prayer also shall be made for him continually; and daily shall he be praised.
16 There shall be an handful of corn in the earth upon the top of the mountains; the fruit thereof shall shake like Lebanon: and they of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth.
17 His name shall endure for ever: his name shall be continued as long as the sun: and men shall be blessed in him: all nations shall call him blessed.
18 Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things.
19 And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen.
20 The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.

Things to think about:

• Do you look forward to Jesus coming back?
• In what ways do you imagine believers will celebrate when Jesus returns?
• What are some of the things we can look forward to at Jesus’ coming?

Prayer of the Day:

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank You for this Scripture in Psalm 72. We see that David looked forward to the coming of the Lord as we do today. Help us to continually watch and pray for His coming. We ask that Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

About the book:

The Book of Psalms:Part 3 Chapters 61-90 by Deborah H. Bateman is 28th book in the Daily Bible Reading Series. The book of Psalms contains 150 chapters. Deborah divided The Book of Psalms into five books to make it easier to read and study. Each book contains approximately thirty chapters from the book of Psalms.

Psalm 119 will not be included in The Book of Psalms since Deborah has already published a book about it called: Psalm 119: Thy Word is a Lamp unto My Feet.

The book of Psalms is one of Deborah’s favorite books of the Bible. It is a great book to read if you’re ever feeling down or need to renew your relationship with Christ. King David went through a lot of tough times in his lifetime, but he loved God and trusted God to protect him from his enemies.

The book of Psalms was written by various people. About half of it was attributed to King David, whether they were written by David or for David is questioned by some biblical scholars. Some of the Psalms were written by Asaph and some say they were written for the sons of Korah and even Moses and Solomon were writers of the Psalms. The Psalms consists of poetry that was primarily meant to be used as songs of praise to the Lord.

The Book of Psalms: Part 3 Chapters 61-90 contains fifty Daily Bible Reading Lessons. Each lesson contains a brief commentary by the author, the Daily Bible Reading Scriptures, a few questions for contemplation or discussion, and a prayer of the day. It is a great Bible study for individuals or group studies.
