Psalm 119: Let’s Linger

This summer we’ve encouraged you to spend a little time in the Psalms each weekday. We prayed for you that as you set aside time to linger over the poetic and often raw words and sentences of the Psalms you would learn more about who God is and who you are in Him. We purposefully…

Psalm 148

When we approach the Psalms, we are overwhelmed and amazed at who our God is. We have seen this summer that our God is eternal, all-powerful, all-knowing, praiseworthy, majestic, Creator, King, a refuge, a provider, a protector, and our hope, just to name a few. Today as you read Psalms 148, take note of who…

Psalm 147

The first part of Psalm 147 tells how our Creator God is intimately acquainted and involved in His creation. He gathers up His children, binds their wounds, and knows each star by name. Our all-powerful, all-knowing, and immense God takes time and care for His creation and takes great delight in those who find their…

Psalm 146

As we finish up the final five psalms this week in our Summer in the Psalms study, we see that all five focus on praise. Praising our God for who He is and what He has done reminds us of the truth of who He is and that we can trust Him. Today, as you…

Psalm 145

Yesterday from Psalm 144, we praised God for who He is — LORD, rock, trainer, lover, fortress, stronghold, deliverer, shield, refuge, and subduer. Today we’re turning to Psalm 145 to celebrate His greatness, which David declares is unsearchable (v. 3). We could easily pick many standout verses from this psalm to overlay with a pretty…

Psalm 144

In Psalm 144, David calls out for rescue and deliverance from God in the face of his enemies, especially from their lying lips. The entire psalm is so good, but in this space, let’s focus on verses 1 and 2. In these two verses, David provides at least 10 character traits of God. Can you…

Psalm 143

From Psalm 143 today, we see that when we are soul thirsty, God is near. Like a newborn baby with searching, kneading hands upon her mother’s breast, so we can stretch out our hands to the Lord, who will satisfy our thirsty desires and nourish our souls. Call out to Him today. He is near.…

Psalm 142

When you need rescue, do you immediately cry out to the Lord? For many of us, our natural inclination in the face of fear is to take our questions to Google, send a complaint via text message, or post a less-than-thoughtful response to social media. Instead, what does this psalm model for us? Take some…

Psalm 141

Last week in our Summer in the Psalms, we introduced Psalm 140, a song penned by David as he looked to God for deliverance from his foes and expressed his trust in God to act justly on behalf of the upright. Today in Psalm 141 the theme of rescue continues but this time David focuses…

Psalm 140

Today at ufcwomen.blog, find the text of Psalm 140 and a brief devotional on waiting for God’s justice.

Psalm 139

Psalm 139 provides a picture of God’s protection over His children. Read it slow and soak up the truth that God knows you, loves you, and never abandons you.
