Daily D – Psalm 113:3

by | Sep 20, 2021 | Daily D | 0 comments

From the rising of the sun to its setting, let the name of the LORD be praised.
PSALM 113:3 (CSB)

—————————————————————————
 

Sunrise and sunset are closer together now. The sun dipped below the horizon last night at 7:21. As one who enjoys days filled with more sunlight than darkness, this made me a little sad. It is dark now a few minutes after six o’clock in the morning. 

We can fill this day with praise to God and overflow into dusk and dark. If we begin with his attributes, his distinguishing characteristics, and finish with how we experience his goodness and grace, no amount of daylight will be enough. 

When the sun goes down and the moon and stars illuminate the heavens above, we can sing songs in the night. Psalm 42:8 says, 

The LORD will send his faithful love by day;
his song will be with me in the night—
a prayer to the God of my life.

Praise God all day. Pray yourself to sleep at night. That’s a pretty good day, don’t you think?

Start well with praise and thanksgiving. Ponder God’s goodness throughout the moments, the minutes, and the hours before you. Wrap it all up with thanksgiving and praise as you lie down and lay down your concerns and cares at bedtime. 

How will you experience God today? Take notes along the way. Then you will always have something to say as you remember God’s goodness in this day.

—————————————————————————

I will live this day with praise and thanksgiving from sunup to sundown to peaceful slumber. 

—————————————————————————

Our Father, open my eyes that I may see your goodness and grace today. I choose to live in awe and wonder, expressing your praise, thanking you for every good and perfect gift. Amen.

Daily D – Ruth 4:11-17

Ruth 4:11-17 All the people who were at the city gate, including the elders, said, “We are witnesses. May the Lord make the woman who is entering your house like Rachel and Leah, who together built the house of Israel. May you be powerful in Ephrathah and your name well known in Bethlehem. May your house become like the house of Perez, the son Tamar bore to Judah, because of the offspring the Lord will give you by this young woman.” Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife. He slept with her, and the Lord granted conception to her, and she gave birth to a son. The women said to Naomi, “Blessed be the Lord, who has not left you without a family redeemer today. May his name become well known in Israel. He will renew your life and sustain you in your old age. Indeed, your daughter-in-law, who loves you and is better to you than seven sons, has given birth to him.” Naomi took the child, placed him on her lap, and became a mother to him. The neighbor women said, “A son has been born to Naomi,” and they named him Obed. He was the father of Jesse, the father of David.

Daily D – Judges 16:20

Judges 16:20 Then she cried, “Samson, the Philistines are here!” When he awoke from his sleep, he said, “I will escape as I did before and shake myself free.” But he did not know that the LORD had left him.

Daily D – Judges 13:8

Judges 13:8 Manoah prayed to the Lord and said, “Please, Lord, let the man of God you sent come again to us and teach us what we should do for the boy who will be born.”

Daily D – Psalm 73:21-26

Psalm 73:21-26

When I became embittered
and my innermost being was wounded,
I was stupid and didn’t understand;
I was an unthinking animal toward you.

Yet I am always with you;
you hold my right hand.
You guide me with your counsel,
and afterward you will take me up in glory.
Who do I have in heaven but you?

And I desire nothing on earth but you.
My flesh and my heart may fail,
but God is the strength of my heart,
my portion forever.

Daily D – Judges 6:14-16

Judges 6:14-16 The Lord turned to him and said, “Go in the strength you have and deliver Israel from the grasp of Midian. I am sending you!” He said to him, “Please, Lord, how can I deliver Israel? Look, my family is the weakest in Manasseh, and I am the youngest in my father’s family.” “But I will be with you,” the Lord said to him. “You will strike Midian down as if it were one man.”
