Daily Bible Reading “My God, My God” (Psalm 22:1-31)

Posted on by

 

My God, My God

Today’s Daily Bible Reading is from Psalm 22:1-31. Psalm 22 is a Psalm of David, to the Chief Musician, upon Aijeleth Shahar. Aijeleth Shahar describes the melody to which the psalm was to be played.

This Psalm starts by saying, “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” Jesus actually cried these words from the cross (see Matthew 27:46). He was forsaken by the Father for a purpose. Have you ever felt like God had forsaken you?

Psalm 22 has been referred to as, “the Psalm of the cross,” even though it was written by David about a thousand years before the death of Jesus on the cross. This Psalm describes what took place on the cross while Jesus was hanging on it. David even describes what Jesus was thinking and feeling. He also describes how the people acted around Jesus. Jesus suffered an extreme amount of pain as He took on our sins on the cross.

Deuteronomy 21:22-23 says, “And if a man have committed a sin worthy of death, and he be to be put to death, and thou hang him on a tree: His body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt in any wise bury him that day; (for he that is hanged is accursed of God;) that thy land be not defiled, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.”

God sent Jesus to be born on the earth for this purpose. He was miraculously placed in His mother’s womb so He could come to this world to die for the sins of the whole world. He was despised and rejected by the people around Him even though He came here to serve them.
Jesus took our sin upon Himself on the cross.

First Peter 2:24 tells us, “Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.” We have all sinned and come short of the glory of God (see Romans 3:23). But Jesus died so we can have eternal life. Have you accepted His sacrifice for your sins?

 

Daily Bible Reading:

Psalm 22:1-31

1 [[To the chief Musician upon Aijeleth Shahar, A Psalm of David.]] My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?
2 O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.
3 But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.
4 Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.
5 They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.
6 But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.
7 All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,
8 He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.
9 But thou art he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother’s breasts.
10 I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother’s belly.
11 Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.
12 Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.
13 They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.
14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.
15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.
16 For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.
17 I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.
18 They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.
19 But be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste thee to help me.
20 Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.
21 Save me from the lion’s mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns.
22 I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.
23 Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.
24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.
25 My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.
26 The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that seek him: your heart shall live for ever.
27 All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.
28 For the kingdom is the LORD’S: and he is the governor among the nations.
29 All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul.
30 A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.
31 They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this.

 

Things to think about:

  • Why was Jesus forsaken by the Father while on the cross?
  • Why did Jesus go to the cross?
  • How much did Jesus have to trust the Father in order to put His life in His hands?
  • Have you put your life in God’s hands?

 

Prayer of the Day:

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank You for this Scripture in the book of Psalms. Even though this Psalm is hard to read about the suffering Jesus went through we thank You for the sacrifice that was made for our sins. Help us to realize the agony He felt and cause us to appreciate the gift we have been given. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

Daily Bible Reading “David Exalts the LORD” (Psalm 21:1-13)

Posted on by

 

David Exalts the LORD

Today’s Daily Bible Reading is from Psalm 21:1-13. Psalm 21 is a Psalm of David to the Chief Musician. It is believed that not only is this Scripture talking about David as the King, but also Jesus Christ, who is the King of Kings. David rejoices in God’s strength and His salvation. Do you rejoice in God’s salvation?

David says God has given him the desires of his heart and hasn’t withheld any of his requests. The Bible tells us in Psalm 37:4, “Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.” David delighted in the LORD, do you?

David talks of God’s blessings and favor on his life, and he praises God for crowning him as king. God blessed David more than he could ever have asked for and David was sure to give God the glory for it. We should give God glory for all His blessings.

“Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us” (Ephesians 3:20).

In verses 8-12 David talks about the enemies of the LORD and how He will destroy them. Then, in the last verse, David exalts the LORD for His strength and power.

 

Daily Bible Reading:

Psalm 21:1-13

1 [[To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.]] The king shall joy in thy strength, O LORD; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!
2 Thou hast given him his heart’s desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah.
3 For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head.
4 He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him, even length of days for ever and ever.
5 His glory is great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him.
6 For thou hast made him most blessed for ever: thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance.
7 For the king trusteth in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.
8 Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee.
9 Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger: the LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.
10 Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.
11 For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform.
12 Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, when thou shalt make ready thine arrows upon thy strings against the face of them.
13 Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: so will we sing and praise thy power.

 

Things to think about:

  • How do you praise God for His salvation?
  • When is the last time you thanked God for His blessings on your life?
  • In what ways do you thank God for answering your prayers?
  • Why should we ask God to protect us from our enemies?

 

Prayer of the Day:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We thank You for this Scripture where David is praising You for Your strength and salvation. He is also thanking You for answering his prayers and blessing his life. Help us to praise and worship You for all Your blessings on our lives, and most of all, for Your gift of salvation. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

Daily Bible Reading “Save, LORD” (Psalm 20:1-9)

Posted on by

Save, LORD

Today Daily Bible Reading is from Psalm 20:1-9. Psalm 20 is a Psalm of David to the Chief Musician. David starts this Psalm by saying, “The LORD hear thee in the day of trouble.” Don’t you want God to hear you when you’re in trouble?

He calls on God to defend and send help from the sanctuary and strengthen them from Zion. Do you ever feel like you need strength to carry on? God can give you the strength you need. Many times we turn to our loved ones to help us in our times of trouble, but they may be busy and not have time to be bothered with our problems. God is always available twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. He is never too busy to hear our cries for help.

David asks God to remember their offerings and their burnt sacrifices. He declares that they will rejoice at the salvation of the LORD. He asks for God to answer all of their petitions. David says he knows God saves His anointed.

God sent Jesus, His Son, to die on the cross so He could become our Savior by being the sacrifice God accepted as redemption for our sins. We can trust in Him to forgive us of our sins and give us salvation. We can have victory through Jesus. We can be saved from the enemy. Have you put your faith and trust in Jesus as your Savior? If not, He will hear your cry. Call out to Him today.

David says some people trust in their military, but we put our trust in God. God is our provider. He is our protector and defender. He saves us from the enemy. Others are defeated, but we are lifted up. David’s last cry of this Psalm is, “Save, LORD: let the king hear us when we call.” Imagine the people of Israel singing this Psalm as a prayer.

 

Daily Bible Reading:

Psalm 20:1-9

1 [[To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.]] The LORD hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee;
2 Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;
3 Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice; Selah.
4 Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.
5 We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners: the LORD fulfil all thy petitions.
6 Now know I that the LORD saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.
7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.
8 They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright.
9 Save, LORD: let the king hear us when we call.

 

Things to think about:

  • In what ways do you cry out to God in times of trouble?
  • Share some of the times in your life when God has saved you from trouble.
  • What are some times of trouble in which we can pray for fellow believers?

 

Prayer of the Day:

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank You for this Scripture in the book of Psalms. Thank You that we can call on You not only when we are in trouble, but any time day or night. You are always available and ready to hear from us. Help us to turn our troubles over to You and not try to handle them on our own. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

Daily Bible Reading “The Heavens Declare His Glory” (Psalm 19:1-14)

Posted on by

The Heavens Declare His Glory

Today’s Daily Bible Reading is from Psalm 19:1-14.
Psalm 19 is a Psalm of David to the Chief Musician. I love this Psalm. David talks about how the heavens and the earth declare the glory of God and show His handiwork.

We see God’s work in creation everywhere we look, from the earth, the sun, the moon, and the stars. They don’t speak, but their very existence show the glory of God. When we look at all the creatures God created and all their different attributes we see His handiwork.

John 1:1-4 tells us, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men.”

Psalm 19:7-11 tells us about the law of the LORD. Some of the words that the Psalmist uses to describe the law are: perfect, sure, and right. They are standards that God set forth for us.

David asks, “Who can understand his own errors?” We have to accept the fact that we are all sinners and we need Jesus to save us from our sins.

One of my favorite verses is Psalm 19:14 which says, “Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.” What a great prayer for all of us.

 

Daily Bible Reading:

Psalm 19:1-14

1 [[To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.]] The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
3 There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.
4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,
5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.
6 His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
7 The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.
8 The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.
9 The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.
10 More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
11 Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward.
12 Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults.
13 Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression.
14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.

 

Things to think about:

  • How do the heavens declare the glory of God?
  • What was the purpose of the law?
  • What do the words in verse 14 mean to you?

 

Prayer of the Day:

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank You for this Scripture in the book of Psalms. Thank You for Your creation; the heavens, earth, sun, moon, stars, and all the earth that declare Your glory. Help us to give thanks to You for all of Your provision. Let the words of our mouths, and the meditation of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O LORD, our strength, and our redeemer. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

Daily Bible Reading “The LORD is My Deliverer” (Psalm 18:1-50)

Posted on by

The LORD is My Deliverer

Today’s Daily Bible Reading is from Psalm 18:1-50. Psalm 18 is a Psalm of David. David was a servant of the LORD. This Psalm was written as a song of praise and thanks to the LORD for delivering David from his enemies, and from the hand of Saul, the king, who wanted to kill him. David admits that the LORD is his strength.

He says, “The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.” What does David mean by this? Notice that when David uses the word “my,” he claims God as his deliver, strength, etc. Can you claim Him as your God in that way?

David states that the LORD delivered him from the wrath of the people, and made him the head of the heathen. David had no idea that they would serve him. They obeyed David and submitted to his commands. He said the outsider will die away and be frightened out of their secure spaces. David praises the LORD saying, “The LORD liveth; and blessed be my rock; and let the God of my salvation be exalted.”

David gave glory and honor to God for taking revenge upon his enemy and causing them to submit to him. The LORD delivered David from his enemies and he made sure to give thanks and sing praises to the LORD for what He did for him. The LORD delivered King David and gave him great victory. He showed mercy on David as His chosen one, both to him and to his descendants forever.

 

Daily Bible Reading:

Psalm 18:1-3

1 [To the chief Musician, [A Psalm of David, the servant of the LORD, who spake unto the LORD the words of this song in the day that the LORD delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul: And he said,]] I will love thee, O LORD, my strength.
2 The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.
3 I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.

***For the sake of space I didn’t include all the verses of this chapter, but it would be good if you would like to take out your Bible and read David’s description of how the Lord delivered him from his enemies.***

Psalm 18: 43-50

43 Thou hast delivered me from the strivings of the people; and thou hast made me the head of the heathen: a people whom I have not known shall serve me.
44 As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me: the strangers shall submit themselves unto me.
45 The strangers shall fade away, and be afraid out of their close places.
46 The LORD liveth; and blessed be my rock; and let the God of my salvation be exalted.
47 It is God that avengeth me, and subdueth the people under me.
48 He delivereth me from mine enemies: yea, thou liftest me up above those that rise up against me: thou hast delivered me from the violent man.
49 Therefore will I give thanks unto thee, O LORD, among the heathen, and sing praises unto thy name.
50 Great deliverance giveth he to his king; and sheweth mercy to his anointed, to David, and to his seed for evermore.

 

Things to think about:

  • We probably have never been in a situation like David.
  • What kind of enemies do we face today? In what ways has the LORD delivered you?
  • How did you give God praise for doing so?
  • In what ways do you give thanks daily for the LORD’S protection?
  • What are some ways that we can show the LORD that we appreciate Him and everything He does for us?

 

Prayer of the Day:

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank You for this Scripture in Psalm 18. We see that David was singing and praising You for delivering him from his enemies. Lord, we thank You for Your deliverance for us also. Help us to always sing and praise Your holy name for what You do for us. You are our rock and our redeemer and we will praise You forever. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
