April 5
Introduction
It is thought that this psalm was adapted from a prayer of thanksgiving by an individual, perhaps a king, who was delivered by God from danger. Therefore, this psalm is sometimes entitled “A Song of Victory.” Today’s reading is the conclusion to the psalm which describes a liturgical procession and an affirmation of God’s eternal love.
Today’s Scripture Reading
Psalm 118:15-29
Today’s Key Verse: Psalm 118:24 (GNT)
This is the day of the LORD’s victory; let us be happy, let us celebrate!
Reflect
The opening and closing verses of this psalm are identical and affirm God’s goodness and enduring love (see also verse 1 of Psalms 106 and 107). For what is the psalm writer thankful? What verses speak of God’s deliverance? The psalm also includes a reference to a procession (verses 19-27). Have you ever participated in any type of religious procession? If so, what was the occasion and where did it take place?
Pray
Praise to you, Lord God! You are always with me and I need not fear. You are mighty and victorious. I give thanks to you because you are good and your love is eternal. You are my God, and I will proclaim your greatness. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Those facing danger
