Psalm 7-12 (The Daily Walk Bible).
The devotional encourages us to “Take an aspect of God’s character that you discover while reading today’s passage, and translate it into the language of praise to God by singing a hymn, composing a short poem of praise, or reading aloud the words of Psalm 9.”
I’m going to go a step further. Try to pray through a Psalm. Take the lines and make them your own. In 9:1 stop and tell God the marvelous things that he has done for you. Make a commitment to Him that you will tell others. Stop in verse 2 to actually sing a song of joy. In verse 3 thank God for the enemies that he has saved you from (like death, hell and the grave!). In verse 4 thank Him for Jesus Christ taking your judgment away. And continue on….
Psalm 8:2 and 8:4-6 are Messianic and are used in Matthew 21:16, 1 Corinthians 15:25-28, and Hebrews 2:5-10.
Thank you Lord!
