JUNE 16, 2025 Psalm 96:1 Oh, sing to the Lord a new song! Sing to the Lord, all the earth. Looking at this verse, just on the surface, it could be interpreted to mean that we are encouraged to sing a song, never before heard; a song from our heart sung to the Creator. I have no doubt that […]
JUNE 15, 2025 Psalm 95:10-11 For forty years I was grieved with that generation, and said, “It is a people who go astray in their hearts, and they do not know My ways.” So I swore in My wrath, they shall not enter My rest. The verse above obviously refers to those who journeyed through […]
JUNE 13, 2025 Psalm 95:6-7 Oh come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord our Maker. For He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture, and the sheep of His hand.

JUNE 12, 2025 Psalm 95:4-5 In His hand are the deep places of the earth; the heights of the hills are His also. The sea is His, for He made it; and His hands formed the dry land. God is the King of the Universe — every part of it — from the lowest point to the highest. Nothing in His Creation […]
JUNE 11, 2025 Psalm 95:1-3 Come, let us sing to the Lord! Let us shout joyfully to the Rock of our salvation. Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving; let us shout joyfully to Him with psalms. For the Lord is the great God, and the great King above all gods. This is the […]
JUNE 10, 2025 Psalm 94:20 Shall the throne of iniquity, which devises evil by law, have fellowship with You?

Every time this precept has been ignored by […]
JUNE 9, 2025 Psalm 94:18-19 If I say, “My foot slips,” Your mercy, O Lord, will hold me up. In the multitude of my anxieties within me, Your comforts delight my soul. It is written, “You shall not take a stand against the life of your neighbor” (Leviticus 19:16). A more literal translation of this verse is, […]
JUNE 8, 2025 Psalm 94:16-17 Who ill rise up for me against the evildoers? Who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?

JUNE 7, 2025 Psalm 94:14-15 The Lord will not cast off His people, nor will He forsake His inheritance. But judgment will return to righteousness, and all the upright in heart will follow it.

JUNE 6, 2025 Psalm 94:12-13 Blessed is the man whom You instruct, O Lord, and teach out of Your law, that You may give him rest from the days of adversity.

JUNE 5, 2025 Psalm 94:7, 9-10 They say, “The Lord does not see, nor does the God of Jacob understand. … He who planted the ear, shall He not hear? He who formed the eye, shall He not see? He who instructs the nations, shall He not correct?” In the Law of Moses, if a […]
JUNE 4, 2025 Psalm 94:1-2 O Lord God, to whom vengeance belongs— O God, to whom vengeance belongs, shine forth! Rise up, O Judge of the earth.
