Daily Bible Reading — Sustained By God’s Word Of Praise預覽
November 15
Introduction
Today’s reading is a hymn of thanksgiving for God’s eternal goodness and love. Written as a litany that was probably sung by the priests during worship, the words “his love is eternal” are a congregational response at the end of each verse.
Today’s Scripture: Psalm 136:1
Give thanks to the LORD, because he is good; his love is eternal.
Today’s Reading
Psalm 136
Reflect
Verses 4-9 recount the story of creation as recorded in Genesis 1:1-19. Similar to verses in yesterday’s reading (Psalm 135:8-12), verses 10-22 in today’s reading recall God’s saving acts in Israel’s history. When reading this psalm, what is the effect of the repeated response at the end of each verse? Try writing your own litany by recalling times in your life when you experienced God’s goodness and love and inserting the words “his love is eternal” at the end of each sentence.
Pray
Your love, O Lord God, is eternal. I thank and praise you and proclaim your mighty deeds.
Your love is eternal! Amen.
Prayer Concern
Congregational liturgists
Tomorrow’s Reading
Psalm 138: A prayer of thanksgiving for God’s love and care.
