获取软件Daily Bible Reading – May 2023, God’s Saving Word: Faith预览
May 17
Introduction
Today’s reading is a psalm proclaiming that God is our supreme ruler. It is a celebratory hymn in praise of God’s kingship and was probably used in some form of liturgical procession.
Scripture Reading
Psalm 47
Today’s Key Verse: Psalm 47:8
God sits on his sacred throne; he rules over the nations.
Reflect
Psalm 47 was most likely used as a liturgical hymn in connection with a worship festival. Christians associate this psalm with Jesus’s ascension into heaven, and Jewish people associate this psalm with Rosh-ha-Shanah, the beginning of the new year. According to verses 1, 6, and 7, what are worshipers instructed to do? How are festival occasions celebrated in your community of faith?
Pray
Sovereign God, your reign is eternal. With my whole being I praise your holy name. With a song in my heart I joyfully proclaim your love for all people. You are king over all the world. Reign in my heart, Lord God! Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Acts 1:1-11: Jesus is taken up to heaven.
