The Psalms - Part Three


I thought I'd share a few more Psalms here today. It's been awhile since I have. I always need these reminders of wisdom and guidance.

You can read my other two posts HERE and HERE

I'm reminded to trust in the Lord:

"In You, O LORD, I put my trust;
Let me never be ashamed;
Deliver me in Your righteousness." Psalm 31:1


"Trust in the LORD, and do good;
Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness." Psalm 37:3



I'm reminded to be humble before Him:

"LORD, You have heard the desire of the humble;
You will prepare their heart;
You will cause Your ear to hear." Psalm 10:17


"The LORD takes pleasure in His people;
He will beautify the humble with salvation." Psalm 149:4



I'm reminded that joy and salvation come from the Lord:

"A Psalm of David. The king shall have joy in Your strength, O LORD;
And in Your salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!" Psalm 21:1



I'm reminded to be thankful to Him:

"Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, And into His courts with praise.
Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.


For the LORD is good;
His mercy is everlasting,
And His truth endures to all generations." Psalm 100:4-5



I'm reminded to ask the Lord for help in watching what I say:

"Set a guard, O LORD, over my mouth;
Keep watch over the door of my lips." Psalm 141:3

 
I'm reminded it is good to praise Him:

"Not unto us, O LORD, not unto us,
But to Your name give glory,
Because of Your mercy,
Because of Your truth." Psalm 115:1

  
"Praise the LORD!
Praise the LORD, O my soul!
While I live I will praise the LORD;
I will sing praises to my God while I have my being." Psalm 146:1-2

"Praise the LORD!
For it is good to sing praises to our God;
For it is pleasant, and praise is beautiful." Psalm 147:1

  6. I was writing about Psalms for some November posts, I think it would be a good read for Thanksgiving or even if you are not in the states, we are still in Sukkot also, kind of a Jewish Thanksgiving.
