November 3
Introduction
Psalm 121: Today’s reading is from a section in the book of Psalms called the “Songs of Ascents” (Psalms 120–134). These psalms were used by pilgrims journeying to Jerusalem from various parts of the land. Jerusalem is built on a hill, and the Temple was located on the hill called Zion. These “Songs of Ascents” were probably used by worshipers as they were “going up” to Jerusalem for one of the major festivals. Psalm 121 expresses assurance of God’s protection as pilgrims make their way through lonely country to and from Jerusalem.
Today’s Key Verse: Psalm 121:2
My help will come from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
Reflect
What question is raised in verse 1? How does the remainder of the psalm answer the question? When have you sought help from God?
Pray
Lord God, you are my protector and you are always awake, watching over me. My help comes from you and I trust in your never-failing love and care. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Psalm 122: A psalm celebrating Jerusalem.
