Read: Psalm 1, 2, 10, 33, 91
Psalm 1 paints the scene for the other psalms. It admonishes the joys of the people who delight in the Word over the world’s wisdom. In Psalm 2 we see that God laughs at the nations that plot against him. To us he tells us to only ask, and he will give us the nations as our inheritance, the whole earth as our possession. He offers joy to all who take refuge in him.
God frustrates the plans of the nations and thwarts all their schemes. But His plans stand firm forever and his intentions can never be shaken. What a promise! He watches over those who fear him and rescues us. He is our rock of safety, our fortress, our hope, our strength.
Psalm 91 says it all. If ever there was a chapter to put to memory it is this one!
Lord, we put our hope in You. You are our help and our shield. In You our hearts rejoice, for we trust in your holy name. Let your unfailing love surround us, Lord, for our hope is in you alone.
