Psalm 12:6
And the words of the Lord are flawless,
like silver refined in a furnace of clay, purified seven times.
The above verse is from a
song that David composed to remind God’s people that we can be certain of the
Lord’s protection and comfort. Where do
we flee to receive such help? The Word
of God!
Lord,
Your words are water living
When
my thirsting spirit pleads.
Lord,
Your words are bread life giving
On
Your words my spirit feeds
Lord,
Your words will be my light
Through
death’s cold and dreary night
Yes,
they are my sword prevailing
And
my cup of joy unfailing!
As you read, pray and meditate upon
this week’s Psalms, you might also pray the following collect that they church
has prayed for centuries:
Blessed
Lord, since You have caused all Holy Scripture to be written for our learning,
grant that we may so hear them, read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest them
that we may embrace and ever hold fast the blessed hope of everlasting life;
through Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the
Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.
Amen.
God bless your time spent in His
flawless, pure and perfect Word!
