November 30
Introduction
Today’s reading is a royal psalm that celebrates God’s powers and virtues. The “enemies” and “foreigners” mentioned in verses 6, 7, and 11 are the nations that oppressed God’s people during the exile and after they returned home. The psalm concludes with a prayer for the nation.
Scripture Reading
Psalm 144
Today’s Key Verse: Psalm 144:15b
Happy are the people whose God is the LORD!
Reflect
How is God described in verses 1 and 2? Verse 3 recalls Psalm 8:4. What does this verse, along with verse 4, indicate about the writer’s thoughts? What does the psalm writer ask of God (verses 5-8)? Reread verses 12-15 which envision a well-structured society. How would you paraphrase these verses for a vision of society today?
Pray
I praise you, Lord, because you are my protector and defender, my shelter and my savior, in whom I trust for safety. Reach down, O God, and embrace me in your loving care. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Those seeking safety and in need of protection
