December 10
Introduction
The psalm writer encourages worshipers to come before God with thanksgiving and songs of praise. God rules over all creation, and humankind is compared to a flock for which God cares. The writer encourages people to listen to God’s voice and to live in obedience and peace.
Today’s Scripture: Psalm 95:6
Come, let us bow down and worship him; let us kneel before the LORD, our Maker!
Today’s Reading
Psalm 95
Reflect
Reread verses 7-11. Sheep normally listen to their shepherd (John 10:4), but this passage tells how God’s people did not listen. The psalm writer uses this memory to call people to obey God “today” (verse 7). These verses may have been spoken in a worship service by a priest or prophet. Are they relevant for us today?
Pray
God of grace and mercy, there are times in my life when I have failed to listen to your call. Forgive me. Help me to hear your voice in all aspects of my life so that I may serve you faithfully. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Those who are hearing impaired
Tomorrow’s Reading
Psalm 96: God is our supreme king.
