Apr 5 (Psa 20, 25, 32, 42, 101)


Songs of Joy and Praise


Psalm 20


(v.4) I like this psalm for when I'm feeling a little overwhelmed...it's comforting. God has a purpose for all of us, and He loves to bless us and amaze us!

(v.6) God saves His beloved...that's you and me!


Psalm 25

(v.4) This is what we need to pray EVERY DAY...for God to show us His ways, and to lead us on our paths.

(v.11) I stress this with my kids...For Your name's sake...Jesus' name means YHWH Saves, so He can't go against His character!

(v.14) Being a believer and follower of Jesus is not like a fraternity or club...it is a relationship with Him. The more we pray and read His Word, the more He reveals His wisdom to us!

(v.20) I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ! Are you?


Psalm 32

(v.2) When we accept Jesus into our hearts, and we submit to His guidance, our sins are washed away with the blood of the Lamb. The Father sees us thereafter with Jesus-filtered glasses, and we are righteous and redeemed in His sight! Heb 8:12

(v.5) Our sins are forgiven only if we confess them to God. We need to say them out loud to Him, and learn from them, and He will help us to be more righteous.


Psalm 42

(v.4) The best times to praise God are when we are sad or even heartbroken. It's at those times, when we ignore our sinful ways to praise God during a storm in our lives, that God blesses us and comforts us immensely. He loves to do that!

(v.9) Jesus is our Rock, and He hears us and prays for us to the Father continuously.


Psalm 101

(v.3) Satan uses our eyes to tempt us...the eyes are the window to our soul that he tries to have us fall away from God. Lust of the eyes is very powerful, but God gives us a way out 1 Cor 10:13 if we let Him. The best thing for all of us to do, is to avoid putting ourselves in situations where we know we'll be tempted by what we see.

(v.6) I am reminded that I should choose my friends wisely. We need to associate with other believers and spend time with godly people, instead of those who are of this world.
