Forty Days with the Psalms - 2021 - Standard pdf Final 1_29_21 (1)

faithfulness remains from one generation to another; you have laid
the foundation of the earth, and it abides. 91 Surely your ordinances
stand firm this day, for all things are your servants. 92 If my delight
had not been in your law, I should have perished in my affliction. 93 I
will never forget your commandments, for with them you have
enlivened me. 94 I am yours; O save me! For I have sought your
commandments. 95 The ungodly lie in wait for me to destroy me, but I
will consider your testimonies. 96 I see that all things come to an end,
but your commandment has no bounds. 97 Lord, what love I have for
your law; all the day long I meditate on it. 98 You, through your
commandment, have made me wiser than my enemies, for it is
always with me. 99 I have more understanding than my teachers, for
your testimonies are my study. 100 I am wiser than the agéd, because I
keep your commandments. 101 I have restrained my feet from every
evil way, that I may keep your word. 102 I have not turned aside from
your judgments, for you yourself have taught me. 103 Oh how sweet
are your words to my taste; indeed, sweeter than honey to my
mouth. 104 Through your commandments I get understanding;
therefore I hate all evil ways.
EVENING - Placing all cares in God’s hands
PSALM 88 ~ 1 O Lord God of my salvation, I have cried day and night
before you; O let my prayer enter into your presence; incline your ear
to my call. ² For my soul is full of trouble, and my life draws nigh to
the Grave. ³ I am counted as one of those who go down into the pit,
and I have become as one who has no strength. 4 I have become like
the dead, and like the slain who lie in the grave, whom you remember
no more, and who are cut off from your hand. 5 You have laid me in
the lowest pit, in a place of darkness, and in the deep. 6 Your
indignation lies heavy upon me, and you have overwhelmed me with
all your storms. 7 You have put my friends far from me, and made me
to be abhorred by them. 8 I am in prison; I cannot go forth. 9 My sight
fails because of trouble; Lord, I have called daily upon you; I have
stretched forth my hands unto you. 10 Do you show wonders among
the dead, or shall the dead rise up again and praise you? 11 Shall your
loving-kindness be shown in the grave, or your faithfulness in
destruction? 12 Shall your wondrous works be known in the dark, and
your righteousness in the land where all things are forgotten? 13 Unto
you have I cried, O Lord, and early shall my prayer come before you.
