Get the appDaily Bible Reading – November 2023, God’s Saving Word: Praise and ThanksgivingNäide
November 24
Introduction
Psalm 144: 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 their return. The psalm concludes with a prayer for the nation.
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 (see the reading for November 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 12–14, which envision a well-structured society. How would you paraphrase these verses for a vision for 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.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Psalm 145: A hymn proclaiming God’s greatness.
