Instead I will flourish and grow strong;The Shepherd…

Psalm 22 All Bible study should lead me to Jesus Christ. The Bible speaks about Him.

Psalm 20 The day of trouble: Is the evil day when the unseen spiritual forces attack (see Ephesians 6:12);Is the time of temptation. When the devils tries to make me fall away from the word of God through disbelief.

Psalm 19 The sky and space speak of the glory of God. The stars and the moon night after night they don't fail to shine. They go through their cycles faithfully. The sun always rises. It shines the world. It always rises in the east and sets in the west. In silence they operate telling times and seasons. In silence the sun operate carrying out all life cycles of evaporation, condensation,…

Psalm 18 The Lord is the ultimate defence and defender. A strong foundation. He makes me immovable. No enemy can penetrate His protection. No enemy can take Him by surprise. Ancient times major cities had fortresses and high towers. It was a defence against enemies and for watching for approaching threats. We now have technology like radar and defense missiles to watch and defend a country.…

Do you want what you’re praying for out of lust or it’s for a righteous cause, a just need (see James 4:3);Have faith.

Psalm 15 The Spirit has made it clear that God shall cut off all flattering lips and those that speak with a double heart (see Psalms 12:3). Evil doesn’t dwell with God nor will the foolish stand in His sight. The bloody and deceitful man will be destroyed in His presence (see Psalms 5:4-6). Now the question is: “Lord, who may abide in Your tabernacle? Who may dwell in Your holy hill?”Psalms…

Psalm 14 A fool not only says ‘God is not real’ but he also believes it in his heart. A wicked life has its roots in the failure to acknowledge God. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; Romans 1:28 NKJV https://bible.com/bible/114/rom.1.28.NKJV It’s not about intelligence nor academics.…

Psalm 13 How long? Its a question that is in my heart. How long? Has the Lord forgot about me? Did I even ever get His attention? Have my words ever reached His ears? Am I even accepted in His presence? How will this journey of trusting in God end for me? "How long will my enemy win against me?" Psalms 13:2 ERVhttps://bible.com/bible/406/psa.13.2.ERV Such sadness is real and it can strike the…

Psalm 12 Surrounded by a rotting generation it becomes very hard to live a godly life. It is as if the godly are rare and the faithful are disappearing. People lie, flatter and boast. They encourage each other in their bad paths. "Instead of loving God, they will love pleasure."2 Timothy 3:4 ERVhttps://bible.com/bible/406/2ti.3.4.ERV Compared to the words of flattery and lies from humans, “The…

Psalm 11 To put trust in God is to have faith or belief in Him. He becomes my refuge in times of trouble (see Psalm 9:9, 10). He becomes my defender (see Psalm 5:11). He becomes my shield (Psalm 3:3). I don’t need to fear, worry, panic nor be impulsive in everything I do. They may secretly plan against me, set traps for my fall. They may lie and flatter me (see Psalms 5:9). The foundation of…

Psalm 10 It is an evil that is under the sun, the wicked do prosper. The greedy, boastful and covetous have everything going well for them. These are they who make life difficult for the poor and helpless. They are among us and we know such people. Their success even makes them forget about God, His laws and they boast against God. Does God really not care about such things? Will they get…

Psalm 9 The Psalmist can seem distant sometimes. You’ve prayed to God to help you, you’ve done your best to achieve something. Somehow things don’t go according to the way you expected. How can you praise the Lord with all your heart, when you’re disappointed? How can you speak or display His marvelous works, when people know that you’ve failed? You feel like God has not maintained your right…

Psalms 8 God created everything seen and unseen. All the wonders of creation speak of His glory and strength. Thus, I wonder, why is God interested in me out of all this vast creation? God has chosen to show His strength through the praise of those who are considered foolish and weak (1 Corinthians 1:27) so as to confuse and frustrate the enemy and the avenger. You know who the enemy and…

Psalm 7 The confidence of the Psalmist before God in prayer: He has no iniquity in his hands;He has not payed back evil to a person who is good to him;He asks God to judge him according to his righteousness and the integrity in him in the situation he is in. Thus he asks God to come for judgement and in anger to rise up against his enemies. How can we have such confidence before the great…
