This is day 182 of our journey.

Today we read 6 psalms of praise.

David wrote Psalm 108 as a compilation of psalms 57 & 60. Psalm 109 is David's appeal to God's justice as the king asks God to vindicate him and to bring severe judgment down upon his enemies. Psalm 110 is a royal psalm that announces God's oracle to the Davidic king.

Psalm 111 is an acrostic poem that praises God for his marvelous deeds with a special emphasis on the way in which he provides for and delivers his people.

Psalm 112 is another acrostic poem. It is a wisdom psalm, listing some of the benefits of living a godly life.

In Psalm 113, the psalmist praises God as the sovereign king of the world who reaches down to help the needy.

Join me in Psalms 108-113 and marvel at the wonderful deeds of the Lord!
