Daily Bible Reading – November 2023, God’s Saving Word: Praise and Thanksgiving

ДЕН 29 ОТ 30

November 29

Introduction

Psalm 149: Today’s psalm is a song of praise that emphasizes God’s justice. It offers images of music, praise, and celebration. But it also includes images of punishment. It may have been an prayer during the exile for the defeat of Israel’s enemies, the deliverance of the people, and the restoration of Judah.

Today’s Key Verse: Psalm 149:1

Praise the LORD! Sing a new song to the LORD; praise him in the assembly of his faithful people!

Reflect

Reread verses 6–9: The “swords” symbolize God’s concern for justice. God gives his people responsibility to establish justice on earth. Punishment is to serve justice, and we rejoice when tyrants are retrained from evil. Note that New Testament writers do not speak about the sword of vengeance but rather as the power of God at work within us (see 2 Corinthians 10:3–5; Ephesians 6:12–17; Hebrews 4:12). This “power” is God’s Spirit which helps us to be living examples of God’s powerful love. In what ways have you experienced the power of God’s Spirit at work in your life?

Pray

Praise the LORD! Creator God, I sing to you joyfully! Make me an agent of your justice through the mighty power of your Holy Spirit, that I may be a living example of your love. Amen.
