1 Praise the Lord!

I will thank the Lord with all my heart

as I meet with his godly people.

All who delight in him should ponder them.

His righteousness never fails.

4 He causes us to remember his wonderful works.

How gracious and merciful is our Lord!

5 He gives food to those who fear him;

he always remembers his covenant.

6 He has shown his great power to his people

by giving them the lands of other nations.

7 All he does is just and good,

and all his commandments are trustworthy.

8 They are forever true,

to be obeyed faithfully and with integrity.

9 He has paid a full ransom for his people.

He has guaranteed his covenant with them forever.

What a holy, awe-inspiring name he has!

10 Fear of the Lord is the foundation of true wisdom.

All who obey his commandments will grow in wisdom.

Praise him forever!

Reflect

  • Verse 2 talks about pondering or thinking about the amazing things that the Lord has done for the Nation of Israel. How often do you sit to take the time to think about all the many blessings and wonderful things God has done for you in your life?
  • In this Psalm, the psalmist references the covenant that God made with Abraham. God made a covenant with Abraham and He is still faithful to provide and take care of His people’s needs. How have you seen God taking care of your needs?
  • Verse ten talks about the growth that comes from fearing the Lord and that fear of the Lord is the true foundation of wisdom. Growing in wisdom helps you experience God at a deeper level. How would you like to see yourself grow in this season of life? What are some practical steps you can take to grow in wisdom and grow closer to God?
