All About GOD - Growing Relationships with Jesus and Others

What is your favourite Psalm?

I love God's Word and I think the Book of Psalms is one I turn to often. I have always found that it seems to be my "go back to" book of the Bible.
What chapter of Psalms moves you and how and why?

Psalm 27-when people fail you.

And Psalm 90--when the world seems bigger than God.

Psalm 91 is very good. I use it often when visiting the sick and /or hurting.

Lord Bless,

Psalm 103:8

The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.

A Psalm of joyous praise, and a thankful acknowledgment of personal blessings to a lively celebration of God's gracious attributes!

God bless!

and this is the first Psalm I memorized :) My older sister posted it on our room, back then it

didn't mean anything..Thanks be to God!

Psalm 100:4-5 ⁴ Enter his gates with thanksgiving
   and his courts with praise;
   give thanks to him and praise his name.
⁵ For the LORD is good and his love endures forever;
   his faithfulness continues through all generations.

I actually have 2 favorites for but different reasons.

The first is Psalm 51 - because I can so much relate to David in that when I stumble or even am rebellious and God 'seems' to be far from me I know that He will restore me when I humbly turn to Him in repentance. It is by no means an excuse or 'right ' to do something wrong , it's just simply that I had experienced an amazing amount of grace in my walk with the Lord.

The second is the 19th because it is a psalm regarding the awesome majesty and glory of our God and it ends with my favorie prayer:

" Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart be accceptable in Thy sight , O Lord , my

Strength, and my redeeemer."

God bless

I love this discussion. Psalm 23 for reassurance of our Lord's faithfulness. Psalm 91 for God's overall Sovereign protection.

Psalm 119 - all of it! haha

Yes is the longest.

¹⁷ Be good to your servant while I live,
   that I may obey your word.
¹⁸ Open my eyes that I may see
   wonderful things in your law.
¹⁹ I am a stranger on earth;
   do not hide your commands from me.
²⁰ My soul is consumed with longing
   for your laws at all times.
²¹ You rebuke the arrogant, who are accursed,
   those who stray from your commands.

⁸⁹ Your word, LORD, is eternal;
   it stands firm in the heavens.
⁹⁰ Your faithfulness continues through all generations;
   you established the earth, and it endures.
⁹¹ Your laws endure to this day,
   for all things serve you.
⁹² If your law had not been my delight,
   I would have perished in my affliction.
⁹³ I will never forget your precepts,
   for by them you have preserved my life.
⁹⁴ Save me, for I am yours;
   I have sought out your precepts.
⁹⁵ The wicked are waiting to destroy me,
   but I will ponder your statutes.
⁹⁶ To all perfection I see a limit,
   but your commands are boundless

Psalm 19^[a]

¹ The heavens declare the glory of God;
   the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
² Day after day they pour forth speech;
   night after night they reveal knowledge.
³ They have no speech, they use no words;
   no sound is heard from them.
⁴ Yet their voice^[b] goes out into all the earth,
   their words to the ends of the world.
In the heavens God has pitched a tent for the sun.
⁵ It is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber,
   like a champion rejoicing to run his course.
⁶ It rises at one end of the heavens
   and makes its circuit to the other;
   nothing is deprived of its warmth.

⁷ The law of the LORD is perfect,
   refreshing the soul.
The statutes of the LORD are trustworthy,
   making wise the simple.
⁸ The precepts of the LORD are right,
   giving joy to the heart.
The commands of the LORD are radiant,
   giving light to the eyes.
⁹ The fear of the LORD is pure,
   enduring forever.
The decrees of the LORD are firm,
   and all of them are righteous.

¹⁰ They are more precious than gold,
   than much pure gold;
they are sweeter than honey,
   than honey from the honeycomb.
¹¹ By them your servant is warned;
   in keeping them there is great reward.
¹² But who can discern their own errors?
   Forgive my hidden faults.
¹³ Keep your servant also from willful sins;
   may they not rule over me.
Then I will be blameless,
   innocent of great transgression.
