Psalm 62:10

Daily Bible Encouragement - April 27, 2024 04:00 - 1 minute
Psalm 62:10 Do not trust in extortion or put vain hope in stolen goods; though your riches increase, do not set your heart on them. Back in verse 5, we thought about some of the things that we might put our hope in. I doubt that 'stolen goods' were top of your list! But riches (or, at least, '...

Psalm 62:9

Daily Bible Encouragement - April 26, 2024 04:00 - 1 minute
Psalm 62:9 Surely the lowborn are but a breath, the highborn are but a lie. If weighed on a balance, they are nothing; together they are only a breath. Who do you rely on? When the going gets tough, who do you look to to sort things out? The government? The scientists? Or closer to home, a hus...

Psalm 62:8 Trust in him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge. Do you ever 'pour out your heart to God'?  We often come to God with our lists of requests, or our thanks. We praise him. We confess our sins.  But do we pour out our hearts? Just telling him ...

Psalm 62:7

Daily Bible Encouragement - April 24, 2024 04:00 - 1 minute
Psalm 62:7 My salvation and my honour depend on God; he is my mighty rock, my refuge. What does your honour depend on? It's not a word we often use, but we recognise the idea. It's like 'reputation'. What do people think of me? What am I recognised, valued, appreciated or praised for? Does my ...

Psalm 62:6

Daily Bible Encouragement - April 23, 2024 04:00 - 1 minute
Psalm 62:6 Truly he is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I shall not be shaken. Do these words sound familiar? They should do! Verse 6 is an exact repeat of verse 2. Why? Why does the psalmist repeat himself? I imagine it's because he is like us, and needs to keep hearing the same t...

Daily Bible Encouragement - April 22, 2024 04:00 - 1 minute
Psalm 62:5 Yes, my soul, find rest in God; my hope comes from him. What are you hoping for right now? Back in March we were hoping to find pasta and toilet rolls in the supermarket. By May we were hoping for an end to home-schooling. In June we were hoping for the rain to stop so we could mee...

Psalm 62:3-4 How long will you assault me? Would all of you throw me down – this leaning wall, this tottering fence?  Surely they intend to topple me from my lofty place; they take delight in lies. With their mouths they bless, but in their hearts they curse. The palmist is facing enemies det...

Psalm 51:18 May it please you to prosper Zion, to build up the walls of Jerusalem. For most of this psalm we've been listening to David relating to God individually. He's talking very personally about his sin, his need for forgiveness, his own individual faith. But in the final two verses we s...

Psalm 51:16-17 You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it; you do not take pleasure in burnt offerings.  My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart you, God, will not despise. Even though it’s a familiar psalm, I still find these verses surprising. Why would...
