Today's Meditation - Psalms
Psalm 145:8-16
This psalm has to be on the believer’s favorite list! Its emphasis on the nature and attributes of our God is so important to our perspective on prayer, praise, and trusting God for everything in our lives. The “glory” of His kingdom is the primary emphasis of this section of the psalm, and it encourages us to know that we are citizens of that kingdom by faith in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, having been born again by the Holy Spirit of God. We shall rule and reign with our Lord forever! His “power” and “mighty acts” should be praised every day of our lives, and there should be no doubt in our hearts that He can handle any problem we have!
Verse for MeditationVerse 8 – “The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy.”
Meditation Prayer: “Thank You, Lord, for Your goodness and Your kindness to me; when I fall, You are there to raise me up, and when I am in need, You are there to supply all my need.”
