    Psalm 70:1 Save Me, O God! Lord, Help Me Now

    Any reading of the psalms reveals that David turned to the Lord any time he was facing severe trials or was in deep anguish. Many of David’s subjects probably envied the life that he lived. To them, he couldn’t possibly have the problems that they faced. Yet, David’s writings revealed the great...

    James 1:19-21: Quick to Listen, Slow to Anger Now

    “This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; for the anger of man does not achieve the righteousness of God. Therefore, putting aside all filthiness and all that remains of wickedness, in humility receive the word implanted, which is...

    James 1:16-18: Do Not Be Deceived, My Dear Brothers Now

    “Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren. Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow. In the exercise of His will He brought us forth by the word of truth, so that we would be a kind of...

    James 1:13-15: God Does Not Tempt Anyone Now

    “Let no one say when he is tempted, ‘I am being tempted by God’; for God cannot be tempted by evil, and He Himself does not tempt anyone. But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust. Then when lust has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and when sin is...

    James 1:12 Meaning: Blessed Are Those Who Persevere Now

    “Blessed is a man who perseveres under trial; for once he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.” This is a statement of hope for a Christian. Suffering and trials WILL occur whether a person is a Christian or not. If a Christian...

    James 1:9-11: Rejoice, God Lifts the Humble Now

    “But the brother of humble circumstances is to glory in his high position; and the rich man is to glory in his humiliation, because like flowering grass he will pass away. For the sun rises with a scorching wind and withers the grass; and its flower falls off and the beauty of its appearance is...

    James 1:5-8: Seek Wisdom, God Will Provide Now

    “But if any of you lacks wisdom, he should pray to God, who will give it to him; because God gives generously and graciously to all. But when you pray, you must believe and not doubt at all. Whoever doubts is like a wave in the sea that is driven and blown about by the wind. A person like that...

    James 1:1-4: Rejoice in Trials Now, My Brethren

    “From James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ: Greetings to all God’s people scattered over the whole world. My brothers, consider yourselves fortunate when all kinds of trials come your way, for you know that when your faith succeeds in facing, such trials, the result is the...

    Psalm 51: God, Create In Me A Clean Heart Now – Tranquil Testament

    If a title could be given to this psalm, it would have to be “True Repentance”. Within the words of this psalm can be seen the anguish of a man who had suddenly realized the enormity of his sin before the Lord. The Psalm begins in verses 1-4, “Be gracious to me, O God, according to Your loving...

    Psalm 50: For you hate discipline, and you cast My words behind you

    Psalm 50 contains an almost awesome blending of promise and warning. From the very beginning, it is obvious that this psalm is different in many ways from some of the other psalms. What does Psalm 50:1 mean? The psalm begins very forcefully, "The Mighty One, God, the Lord, speaks and summons...

    I will incline my ear to a proverb; I will express my riddle on the harp

    Psalm 49 is a very practical psalm that deals with the subject of worldly wealth and power, and the richness of a relationship with the Lord. What is the meaning of Psalm 49:4? In verse 4 the Psalmist wrote, “I will incline my ear to a proverb; I will express my riddle on the harp.” We can...

    Psalm 48 Walk Around Zion Now

    Apparently, Psalm 48 was written shortly after an enemy of Israel had attempted to besiege Jerusalem and had failed. Some commentators believe that the Psalm refers to a confederation of Edomites, Moabites, and Ammonites that invaded Judah during the reign of Jehoshaphat. At one point, the enemy...

    Psalm 47: A Journey to Spiritual Enlightenment and Peace Now

    Psalm 47 represents something that is too often neglected today – simple praise of God. This psalm, or song, is definitely a song of praise to God’s power and glory. Today, prayers usually involve petitions for help. Such requests are definitely scriptural and needed. After all, God wants us to...

    Psalm 45 NASB: Celebrating the King’s Marriage with Grace and Majesty

    Psalm 45 was initially written as a wedding song to honor the wedding of the king to his beautiful bride. We can only imagine the pageantry that accompanied such an event. Although the psalm was written for what happened then, the words of the psalm also point to another, future wedding “between...

    Psalm 44 - We have heard it with our ears, O God

    Unlike the previous psalms, the main theme of Psalm 44 deals with a prayer for God’s help for the entire nation in the face of some national calamity. In other psalms, the petitions before God have been made on behalf of the individual or a group of people. But this prayer is on behalf of all...

    Psalm 43 Vindicate Me O God Now

    Due to the content, some commentators believe that Psalm 42 and 43 were written at the same time. There are definite similarities between the two. In the first verse, it is clear that the writer was experiencing great distress. Psalm 43:1 says, “Vindicate me, O God, and plead my case against...

    Psalm 42: Finding Peace and Hope in Troubled Times Now

    Psalm 42 begins a new section that contain psalms that were written by individuals other than David. In this case, the introduction states that the author may have been a son, or sons, of Korah. Even though the author may not be David, the psalms are still inspired, and the message is still very...

    Be Still, and Know That I Am God – Psalm 46:5 Reflection

    When we think about the psalms, the one that often comes to mind is the 23rd psalm. It is beautiful and reprinted often today. But in the time known as the Reformation in Europe, Psalm 46 held at least as important a place. When the Reformation began, Martin Luther wrote that the one psalm that...

    Many Christians around the world celebrate Christmas, Good Friday, and Second Coming dates and rituals without realizing that they are not found in the Bible. These traditions have been passed down through generations and have become an integral part of Christian culture. However, it is...

    Psalm 41: Blessed Is He Who Considers The Helpless Now

    The first verse of Psalm 41 is important because it gives one of the reasons why we should help people who are in need. Psalm 41:1 says, "Blessed is one who considers the helpless; The Lord will save him on a day of trouble." “The LORD will deliver him in a day of trouble.” In both the Old and...
