August 5
Introduction
While today’s reading catalogues Israel’s rebellious ways, it begins with a reminder of God’s mercy. The psalm concludes with God choosing David to be king of Israel.
Scripture Reading
Psalm 78:38-72
Today’s Key Verse: Psalm 78:38a
God was merciful to his people. He forgave their sin and did not destroy them.
Reflect
Verse 41 states that the people “put God to the test and brought pain to the Holy God of Israel.” What verses speak of the people’s unfaithfulness? What verses speak of God’s mercy? What does today’s reading teach you about God?
Pray
Almighty God, you are merciful and always ready to forgive when we turn to you. May I remember how you continue to love and watch over me each day. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Psalm 86: A prayer for God’s help.
Scripture
