The LORD Is Your Portion
on March 12th, 2021
Those who run after other gods will suffer more and more. I will not pour out libations of blood to such gods or take up their names on my lips.LORD, you alone are my portion and my cup; you make my lot secure.The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance.I will praise the LORD,who counsels me; even at night my heart instructs me.I keep my eyes al...

LORD, who may dwell in your sacred tent?Who may live on your Holy Mountain?The one whose walk is blameless, who does what is righteous, who speaks the truth from their heart; whose tongue utters no slander, who does no wrong to a neighbor, and casts no slur on others; who despises a vile person but honors those who fear the LORD . . . Whoever does these things will never be shaken. (Psalm 15) Thes... Read More

Take Refuge in God

I trust in the LORD for protection.So why do you say to me, "Fly like a bird to the mountains for safety!The wicked are stringing their bows . . .

What can the righteous do?"But the LORD is in His Holy Temple; the LORD still rules from Heaven.. . . The LORD examines both the righteous and ... Read More
God Helps The Fatherless
on March 7th, 2021
Why, LORD, do you stand afar off? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?In his arrogance the wicked man hunts down the weak, who are caught in the schemes he devises . . . Arise, LORD! Lift up your hand, O God.Do not forget the helpless.Why does the wicked man revile God?Why does he say to himself, "He won't call me to account"?But you, God, see the trouble of the afflicted; you consider th...
