November 20
Introduction
Today’s psalm expands on themes found in yesterday’s reading (Psalm 146). These themes include God’s help and justice for the poor, the importance of trusting in God rather than in human leaders, and the glory of God’s creation. It is a postexilic psalm that praises God for restoring Jerusalem and bringing home those who were living in exile.
Today’s Scripture Reading
Psalm 147
Today’s Key Verse: Psalm 147:5
Great and mighty is our Lord; his wisdom cannot be measured.
Reflect
Reread verses 12-20. God’s blessings for Jerusalem include secure gates (meaning peace), many children, and good harvests. Verse 19 notes that God has spoken a personal word to his people. God’s instructions and laws are given to Israel. Just as God expects nature to obey his Word, so also does God expect people to obey him. What does it mean for you to obey God?
Pray
Praise the LORD! It is good to sing praise to you, O God; it is pleasant and right to praise you. May I find the strength and wisdom to obey your Word and walk in your ways all my life. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Those preparing for homecomings
Tomorrow’s Reading
Psalm 148: The universe is called upon to praise God.
