Daily Bible Reading “Give Thanks to the LORD” (Psalm 105:1-45)

Give Thanks to the LORD

Today’s Daily Bible Reading is from Psalm 105:1-45. This Scripture talks about some of the ways we can give thanks to the LORD. We can call on His name through prayer, sing to Him, rejoice, and talk about His wondrous works.

The Scripture reminds us about the covenant the LORD made with Abraham (Genesis 17). We also see in this Psalm some of the miracles the LORD God performed. We’re reminded how He protected and provided for the children of Israel when they were in the wilderness.

There is a lot of history in this chapter. I started to delete some of the verses to make it shorter, but thought you might like to read the whole chapter to be reminded how God took care of the children of Israel back then and how He takes care of His children today. We need to thank Him and praise Him in any way we can because He is God.

Notice in the last verse it says, that they might observe His statutes and keep His laws. Even though we live under the grace of Jesus Christ now, we still need to be aware of God’s ways and follow the pattern of how He would have us conduct ourselves.

God did everything for the children of Israel so they would have a relationship with Him. He does the same for us so we will have a close intimate relationship with Him. Have you figured it out yet? It’s not about us. It’s all about Him. We were created to worship and praise Him.

 

Daily Bible Reading:

Psalm 105:1-45

1 O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people.
2 Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous works.
3 Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.
4 Seek the LORD, and his strength: seek his face evermore.
5 Remember his marvellous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;
6 O ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye children of Jacob his chosen.
7 He is the LORD our God: his judgments are in all the earth.
8 He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations.
9 Which covenant he made with Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac;
10 And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant:
11 Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance:
12 When they were but a few men in number; yea, very few, and strangers in it.
13 When they went from one nation to another, from one kingdom to another people;
14 He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, he reproved kings for their sakes;
15 Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.
16 Moreover he called for a famine upon the land: he brake the whole staff of bread.
17 He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was sold for a servant:
18 Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron:
19 Until the time that his word came: the word of the LORD tried him.
20 The king sent and loosed him; even the ruler of the people, and let him go free.
21 He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance:
22 To bind his princes at his pleasure; and teach his senators wisdom.
23 Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.
24 And he increased his people greatly; and made them stronger than their enemies.
25 He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtilly with his servants.
26 He sent Moses his servant; and Aaron whom he had chosen.
27 They shewed his signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.
28 He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his word.
29 He turned their waters into blood, and slew their fish.
30 Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, in the chambers of their kings.
31 He spake, and there came divers sorts of flies, and lice in all their coasts.
32 He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land.
33 He smote their vines also and their fig trees; and brake the trees of their coasts.
34 He spake, and the locusts came, and caterpillers, and that without number,
35 And did eat up all the herbs in their land, and devoured the fruit of their ground.
36 He smote also all the firstborn in their land, the chief of all their strength.
37 He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not one feeble person among their tribes.
38 Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them fell upon them.
39 He spread a cloud for a covering; and fire to give light in the night.
40 The people asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
41 He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out; they ran in the dry places like a river.
42 For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham his servant.
43 And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with gladness:
44 And gave them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the labour of the people;
45 That they might observe his statutes, and keep his laws. Praise ye the LORD.

 

Things to think about:

  • Are you thankful for what the LORD has done for you?
  • Do you give God thanks for all the things He has provided for you?
  • How do you show God you are grateful that He watches over you and cares for you?
  • What are some ways we can let God know we appreciate His goodness?
  • What are some ways we can give thanks and praise to the LORD?

 

Prayer of the Day:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We thank You for all You are and for all You have done for us. We thank You for watching over us, protecting us, and providing for us. Thank You for all Your wondrous works. Help us to be what You would have us to be. Help us to remember to always give You thanks and praise. We love You, LORD. In Jesus’ precious name, we pray. Amen.

Daily Bible Reading “How Great Thou Art” (Psalm 104:18-35)

How Great Thou Art

Today’s Daily Bible Reading is from Psalm 104:18-35. The Psalmist continues to share with us about the creation of the LORD. Do you enjoy looking at God’s creation and marvel at His wondrous works? The Psalmist says, “The high hills are a refuge for the wild goats; and the rocks for the conies,” which are a type of rabbit.

He talks about how God created the moon for seasons and to shine its light at night. So, the beasts of the field can hunt for food until the sun rises, then they retreat to their dens. God created the sun to light the day for man so he can work by day and rest at night. Isn’t it amazing how God orchestrated everything to work together?

I love verse twenty-four, which says, “O LORD, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches.” Then, the Psalmist goes on to talk about the vastness of the sea and all the creatures God created who live in the sea.

Think about that for a minute — all the many creatures God created. Consider all the different shapes, sizes, and colors. Some of the creatures swim, some fly, some walk on four legs. It’s simply amazing when you think of the vastness of God’s creation.

The ships sail upon the sea and search for food. The LORD gives the fishermen their reward in due time. The fishermen gather from the sea what the LORD blesses them with to feed their families. They sell the rest of their catch to make a living.

When the LORD hides His face from man he becomes afraid, and rightly so. Why would God turn His face away from us? Maybe He would do such a thing because we rebelled against Him and sinned. Maybe He would do it to get our attention. God is the one who gives us breath to live. When He takes away our breath we die and return to the dust from which He created us. God sends His spirit to create more life to replenish the earth. The LORD rejoices over His wondrous works. His glory will endure forever.

When God looks on the earth it trembles. When He touches the mountains they smoke. This reminds me of earthquakes and volcanoes.

The Psalmist declares he will sing and praise the LORD as long as he lives. He will meditate on the LORD and enjoy sweet fellowship with Him. He cries out to God for the wicked to be no more on the face of the earth. He blesses and praises the LORD.

 

Daily Bible Reading:

Psalm 104:18-35

18 The high hills are a refuge for the wild goats; and the rocks for the conies.

19 He appointed the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going down.

20 Thou makest darkness, and it is night: wherein all the beasts of the forest do creep forth.

21 The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their meat from God.

22 The sun ariseth, they gather themselves together, and lay them down in their dens.

23 Man goeth forth unto his work and to his labour until the evening.

24 O LORD, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches.

25 So is this great and wide sea, wherein are things creeping innumerable, both small and great beasts.

26 There go the ships: there is that leviathan, whom thou hast made to play therein.

27 These wait all upon thee; that thou mayest give them their meat in due season.

28 That thou givest them they gather: thou openest thine hand, they are filled with good.

29 Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled: thou takest away their breath, they die, and return to their dust.

30 Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they are created: and thou renewest the face of the earth.

31 The glory of the LORD shall endure for ever: the LORD shall rejoice in his works.

32 He looketh on the earth, and it trembleth: he toucheth the hills, and they smoke.

33 I will sing unto the LORD as long as I live: I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.

34 My meditation of him shall be sweet: I will be glad in the LORD.

35 Let the sinners be consumed out of the earth, and let the wicked be no more. Bless thou the LORD, O my soul. Praise ye the LORD.

 

Things to think about:

  • In what ways do you marvel at the works of the LORD?
  • Do you thank God and praise Him for His wondrous works?
  • In what ways can we show the LORD that we appreciate all He has done for us?

 

Prayer of the Day:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We thank You for this Scripture in Psalm 104 in which the Psalmist reminds us to give You glory and praise for Your wondrous works. Help us to show You how much we love and appreciate all the things You have created for us and given us to enjoy. Help us to praise and worship You all the days of our lives. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

Daily Bible Reading “How Great is Our God” (Psalm 104:1-17)

How Great is Our God

Today’s Daily Bible Reading is from Psalm 104:1-17. Have you ever considered who the LORD is and all He does or has done? The Psalmist goes through a list of His acts in Psalm 104. He thanks and praises the LORD for His honor and majesty. The LORD covers Himself with light like a garment. He stretched out the heavens as a curtain to cover the world.

The LORD lays the beams of His chambers in the water. He makes the clouds His chariot and walks on the wings of the wind. He makes His angels spirits and His ministers a flaming fire. He created the foundations of the earth, and firmly established it, so it wouldn’t be moved forever.

He covers it with the deep like a curtain. The waters stood above the mountains. At the sound of thunder they fled. The water goes up to the mountains and back down to the valley where He founded them. He made springs of water to flow in the valleys between the mountains. He set boundaries so the waters would never cover the earth again. The springs provide water for the beasts of the field to quench their thirst and He causes the grass to grow to feed them.

He also uses the waters of the springs to provide places for the birds to make their nests as they sing with their beautiful voices from the branches of the trees. He causes herbs to grow so man can grow food to feed themselves and their families. He provides oil, bread, and wine to satisfy the hunger of man. His creation plan included every beast of the field, fowl of the air, and human being and all of their needs. He left nothing undone. How great is our God!

 

Daily Bible Reading:

Psalm 104:1-17

1 Bless the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, thou art very great; thou art clothed with honour and majesty.
2 Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain:
3 Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters: who maketh the clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind:
4 Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:
5 Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever.
6 Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the mountains.
7 At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away.
8 They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys unto the place which thou hast founded for them.
9 Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; that they turn not again to cover the earth.
10 He sendeth the springs into the valleys, which run among the hills.
11 They give drink to every beast of the field: the wild asses quench their thirst.
12 By them shall the fowls of the heaven have their habitation, which sing among the branches.
13 He watereth the hills from his chambers: the earth is satisfied with the fruit of thy works.
14 He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth;
15 And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face to shine, and bread which strengtheneth man’s heart.
16 The trees of the LORD are full of sap; the cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted;
17 Where the birds make their nests: as for the stork, the fir trees are her house.

 

Things to think about:

  • Think about the vastness of God’s creation. Draw a picture on paper or in your mind to remind yourself of His creation.
  • As you look at God’s creation, what is your favorite part?
  • Think about how God provided for each and every creature He created and list them. What an awesome God!

 

Prayer of the Day:

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank You for this Scripture in Psalm 104. The Psalmist reminds us of what an awesome God You are. He reminds us of Your creation and how You provided for every creature You created. We thank You for You wonderful plan of provision for the earth and everything in the earth. Help us to show our gratitude for Your creation. In Jesus’ name, we pray. We love You, LORD. Amen.

Daily Bible Reading “Bless the LORD, O My Soul” (Psalm 103:1-22)

Bless the LORD, O My Soul

Today’s Daily Bible Reading is from Psalm 103:1-22. When is the last time you stopped and thought about the LORD and all the benefits He has bestowed upon you? This is a Psalm of David in which his whole purpose of writing is to remind us to bless the LORD. What does it mean to “bless” the LORD? It means to exalt Him, lift Him up, and honor Him as God. All believers can do this, not only priests or pastors. When we worship and praise the LORD it blesses Him. David blesses the holy name of the LORD.

David reminds us of all of the benefits of the LORD. He reminds us that the LORD forgives our sins and heals our diseases. God made Himself known to Moses and demonstrated His wondrous works to the children of Israel. God is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and thankfully so, or He would have taken us out a long time ago. He has removed our sins as far as the east is from the west.

We are like the grass that withers away, but the LORD is eternal. His mercy is from everlasting to everlasting. He is the alpha and the omega, the beginning and the end. God has prepared a place in heaven for those who believe. David calls out for everything and everyone to bless the LORD. He ends the Psalm like he started it saying, “Bless the LORD, O my soul.”

Take some time today to think about all the things you have for which to bless the LORD. You can bless Him by giving Him thanks and praise for who He is and for His many blessings in your life. You could read this Scripture or other Scriptures out loud to the LORD and declare His goodness and mercy to Him. Don’t you enjoy hearing people say good things about you? What makes you think that the LORD wouldn’t enjoy hearing you acknowledge Him?

 

Daily Bible Reading:

Psalm 103:1-22

1 [[A Psalm of David.]] Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;
5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
6 The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.
7 He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.
8 The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.
9 He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever.
10 He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
11 For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.
12 As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
13 Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him.
14 For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.
15 As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.
16 For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more.
17 But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children’s children;
18 To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them.
19 The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.
20 Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.
21 Bless ye the LORD, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his, that do his pleasure.
22 Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.

 

Things to think about:

  • What are some things for which we can bless the LORD?
  • Have you accepted God’s forgiveness for your sins?
  • Look around you and think of all the blessings the LORD has bestowed upon you. List them here and thank Him for them.

 

Prayer of the Day:

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank You for this Scripture in Psalm 103 in which David reminds us to bless You. LORD, we bless Your holy name. You are merciful and loving. You are forgiving and kind. You have made a way for us to have forgiveness of our sins, if we only believe. You are the creator, You are our provider, You are our protector. We love You, LORD. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

Daily Bible Reading “The LORD Will Hear the Prayer of the Destitute” (Psalm 102:15-28)

The LORD Will Hear the Prayer of the Destitute

Today’s Daily Bible Reading is from Psalm 102:15-28. Have you ever felt desperate for God to hear and answer your prayer? The Psalmist earlier in the chapter cried out for God to hear his prayer. In this portion of the chapter he declares the greatness of the LORD.

He says the heathen will fear the name of the LORD and all the kings of the earth will fear His glory. When the LORD comes back in all His glory, He will build up Zion. He will remember the prayer of the destitute.

The Psalmist reminds us, this is written for the generation to come. It is a prophetic statement to let us know that the LORD hears and answers our prayers and He will return one day to take His children home.

The LORD looks down from His sanctuary in heaven and hears the cries of the prisoner. He will come back to proclaim the name of the LORD in Zion. His people will gather in Jerusalem to praise and worship the LORD.

This man is weak in his body and believes he is close to the end of his days. He is begging the LORD to spare his life.

The Psalmist professes the LORD as the creator of the world and that His name will last forever. The name of the LORD will be passed down from generation to generation. It is our duty as believers to make sure that the Word of the LORD is passed down to the next generation.

We need to teach our children and grandchildren about the LORD. Are you doing your part to spread the good news of the Gospel to the next generation? Thank God for those who came before us and sacrificed to make sure we knew about the Gospel of Jesus Christ in our lifetime.

 

Daily Bible Reading:

Psalm 102:15-28

15 So the heathen shall fear the name of the LORD, and all the kings of the earth thy glory.
16 When the LORD shall build up Zion, he shall appear in his glory.
17 He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their prayer.
18 This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people which shall be created shall praise the LORD.
19 For he hath looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from heaven did the LORD behold the earth;
20 To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are appointed to death;
21 To declare the name of the LORD in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem;
22 When the people are gathered together, and the kingdoms, to serve the LORD.
23 He weakened my strength in the way; he shortened my days.
24 I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days: thy years are throughout all generations.
25 Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands.
26 They shall perish, but thou shalt endure: yea, all of them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed:
27 But thou art the same, and thy years shall have no end.
28 The children of thy servants shall continue, and their seed shall be established before thee.

 

Things to think about:

  • In what ways do you show reverence for the name of the LORD?
  • In what ways can we prepare for the return of the LORD?
  • How do you acknowledge God as being the creator of the world?
  • What are some things we can do to make sure future generations have a chance to hear the Gospel?

 

Prayer of the Day:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We thank You for this Scripture in Psalm 102 in which the Psalmist reminds us of Your greatness and holiness. Help us to acknowledge You as LORD of this earth and as LORD of our lives. Help us to share the Gospel with the next generation. Help us to look forward to Your return. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

About the book:

The Book of Psalms: Part 4 Chapters 91-118 by Deborah H. Bateman is 29th 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 has already been published in a book 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 4 Chapters 91-118 contains thirty-six 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.
