my strength. The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my

call to the Lord, who is worthy of praise, and I am saved from my

WEDNESDAY
November 25
Look
up and read
Psalm 23
“The Lord is my
shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green
pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Even
though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no
evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff they comfort me. You
prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head
with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and love will follow me all the
days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.”
Meditate over this
Psalm today and thank God for His guidance and that He is with us at all
times especially when we are experiencing times of persecution and
temptation.

Psalm

“Your love,
O Lord, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies.
Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your justice
like the great deep. O Lord, you preserve both man and beast. How
priceless is your unfailing love! Both high and low among men find
refuge in the shadow of your wings.”
Spend some time in
prayer today thanking God for his unfailing love, faithfulness and justice

FRIDAY
November 27
Look
up and read
Psalm
42:1-4
“As
the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, O
God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and
meet with God? My tears have been my food day and night, while men say to
me all day long, ‘Where is your God?’ These things I remember as I pour
out my soul: how I used to go with the multitude, leading the procession
to the house of God, with shouts of joy and thanksgiving among the festive
throng.” Pray
today thanking God for a soul that thirsts for Him and that you would
continue to cry out to Him all your days on this earth until He returns.

SATURDAY
November 28
Look
up and read
Psalm 100
“Shout for joy
to the Lord, all the earth. Worship the Lord with gladness; come
before him with joyful songs. Know that the Lord is God. It is
he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, the sheep of
his pasture. Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with
praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. For the Lord is
good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness
continues through all generations.”
Meditate over this Psalm today and thank God for his creation and making his
people unique and that we would shout for joy “our sound” and give praise to
His name. Thank Him for His eternal love and faithfulness which continues
throughout every generation after you. |
