Psalms
“Blessed be the Lord, Who daily loads us with benefits, the God of our salvation! Selah.” – Psalm 68:19 Though I originally wrote this devotion in September 2024, as I just finished preaching through Psalm 68 this past Lord’s Day, and this verse in particular, I thought I would revisit the subject with some expanded thoughts and…
“Sing to God, sing praises to His name; Extol Him who rides on the clouds,by His name Yah, and rejoice before Him. A father of the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in His holy habitation. God sets the solitary in families; He brings out those who are bound into prosperity; But the rebellious dwell in a dry land.”…
“Come and hear, all you who fear God, and I will declare what He has done for my soul. I cried to Him with my mouth, and He was extolled with my tongue. If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear. But certainly God has heard me; He has attended to…
“You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the Lord.” Leviticus 19:18 “The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in mercy.

“Vindicate me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation; Oh, deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man! For You are the God of my strength; Why do You cast me off? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy? Oh, send out Your light and Your truth!…
“I will say to God my Rock, “Why have You forgotten me? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?” As with a breaking of my bones, my enemies reproach me, while they say to me all day long, “Where is your God?” Why are you cast down, O my soul?…
“You have set our iniquities before You, our secret sins in the light of Your countenance.” – Psalm 90:8 “Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord does not impute iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit. When I kept silent, my bones…
