Daily Bible Reading — Sustained By God’s Word Of Praiseનમૂનો

  

November 13

Introduction

Today’s reading is considered a “royal psalm” that celebrates David and his descendants as God’s anointed rulers. As a song used in worship, the psalm also celebrates the reason people made pilgrimages to the Temple in Jerusalem (Zion), God’s chosen home (verse 13). 

Today’s Scripture: Psalm 132:13

The LORD has chosen Zion; he wants to make it his home.

Today’s Reading 

Psalm 132

Reflect

Today’s reading lifts up two events in the life of David – David capturing Jerusalem from the Jebusites and making the city the capital of a united Israel (2 Samuel 5:6-10), and bringing the Covenant Box to the new capital (2 Samuel 6).  What was the vow that David made to God (verses 2-5)? Reread verses 10-12. What was the promise God made to David? What else did God promise (verses 13-18)? 

Pray

Ever-Faithful God, your promise of love is eternal. With joy I sing your praises and worship you with a thankful heart. Amen.

Prayer Concern

Houses of worship being dedicated
