Daily Bible Reading – May 2023, God’s Saving Word: FaithSample
May 14
Introduction
In this short psalm, an individual who has found safety in the LORD is addressing another individual and affirming trust and confidence in the LORD.
Scripture Reading
Psalm 11
Today’s Key Verse: Psalm 11:7
The LORD is righteous and loves good deeds; those who do them will live in his presence.
Reflect
Reread verses 4-7. How does the psalm writer describe the LORD? What is the destiny of the wicked? Of those who do good deeds? In what ways have you been blessed by the good deeds of others? What good deeds will you do today?
Pray
Lord God, you alone are holy. Thank you for watching over me. Help me to obey you so that I always do what is right. Keep me close to you, and keep my heart pure. May my words and actions today be pleasing in your sight. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Psalm 16: A prayer of confidence in God.
