Psalm 33 - Praying God's Word


Please read Psalm 33.
www.blueletterbible.org/nasb/psa/33/1/s_511001
Meditate on verse 1b.

Praise is becoming to the upright.

It is appropriate to praise the LORD.  The psalmist gave a list of reasons to thank and praise God.  Some of them are:

1.     The Word of the LORD is upright (v. 4).
2.     All of God’s work is done in faithfulness (v.4).
3.     The earth is full of the LORD’s lovingkindness (v. 5).
4.     The Word of the LORD made the heavens (v. 6).
5.     The breath of God’s mouth made everything in the heavens (v. 6).
6.     The LORD nullifies the counsel of the nations, but His counsel stands forever (vs. 10-11).
7.     The LORD frustrates the plans of the people, but the plans of His heart last from generation to generation (vs. 10-11).

Meditate on at least one of these truths about the LORD.  Praise and thank Him all day long; it is appropriate.

Pray Psalm 33:18-22 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

“LORD, keep Your eye on ________ and me as we fear You.
LORD, we hope in Your lovingkindness to deliver our souls from death
 and to keep us alive in famine.  Our souls wait for You, LORD;
 You are our help and our shield.  Our heart rejoices in You
because we trust in Your holy name.  Let Your lovingkindness, O LORD,
be upon us according as we have hoped in You.
Because of Your name, Jesus~”
