DAY 221: JOURNEY THROUGH THE BIBLE IN A YEAR

Today we return to the journey through Psalms, with chapters 93-95.

Take some time before reading to pray over Psalms 93-95. Read Psalms 93-95. Let’s journey!

As we journey through the fourth book of Psalms, remember that nearly every psalm can be classified as a psalm of Lament or a psalm of praise. A lament is a cry to the Lord, asking Him to do something, most often when we are in pain, confused, or angry. A psalm of praise is a prayer of joy and celebration, thanking the Lord for His work.

Psalms 93-95: Psalm 93 delivers the theme of God as ruler of all. Psalm 94 delivers the theme of God as the avenger of the oppressed. Psalm 95 delivers a mixed theme: Rejoicing in His mercy and loving-kindness and punishment for rebelling against Him. (Psalms 93:1-95:11)

Read chapters 93-95, and ask yourself these questions: Are these psalms of lament or praise? How do you know? What does this psalm teach you about the Lord God? Take a moment and offer up to the Lord God at least one praise and one lament from your own life.
