[FoundInGrace]

Psalm 44:2-3

It was not by their sword that they won the land,
nor did their arm bring them victory;

it was your right hand, your arm, and the light of your face, for you loved them.

 

[rosemoss]

When I need to hear something good, I open Psalms.
It always makes me think, always makes me wonder, always makes me happy I'm a child of God.

~ Psalm 71:19-24 ~

Your righteousness reaches to the skies, O God, you who have done great things.
Who, O God, is like you?
Though you have made me see troubles, many and bitter, you will restore my life again;
from the depths of the earth you will again bring me up.
You will increase my honor and comfort me once again.

I will praise you with the harp for your faithfulness, O my God;
I will sing praise to you with the lyre, O Holy One of Israel.
My lips will shout for joy when I sing praise to you—
I, whom you have redeemed.
My tongue will tell of your righteous acts all day long,
for those who wanted to harm me have been put to shame and confusion.​

 

[Greenthumb]

Psalm 121

I lift up my eyes to the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.
He will not let your foot slip
he who watches over you will not slumber;
indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.
The Lord watches over you
the Lord is your shade at your right hand;
the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.
The Lord will keep you from all harm
he will watch over your life;
the Lord will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.​

 

[Proverbs31]

PSALM 55:22

Cast thy burden upon the Lord and he shall sustain thee he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.

PSALM 73 paraphrased


WHOM HAVE I IN HEAVEN? ã 2002

HAVE I IN VAIN WASHED MY HANDS IN INNOCENCE,
WHILE THE WICKED CONTINUE TO BUILD THEIR WEALTH?
I THOUGHT FOR NOTHING I'D KEPT MY HEART PURE,
BUT FATHER, YOU ARE MY PORTION FOREVER.

CHORUS:
SO TELL ME
WHOM HAVE I IN HEAVEN, BUT YOU?
EARTH HAS NOTHING I DESIRE, BUT YOU.
MY FLESH AND MY HEART MAY FAIL,
BUT YOU GUIDE ME WITH YOUR COUNSEL.

AND I AM ALWAYS WITH YOU.

AS FOR ME, MY FEET HAD ALMOST SLIPPED.
I HAD NEARLY LOST MY FOOTHOLD.
UNDERSTANDING WAS OPPRESSIVE TO ME
UNTIL I ENTERED YOUR SANCTUARY.

CHORUS:

MY FLESH AND MY HEART MAY FAIL,
BUT YOU GUIDE ME WITH YOUR COUNSEL.
AND I AM ALWAYS WITH YOU.

LORD, TELL ME
WHOM HAVE I IN HEAVEN
BUT YOU?

 

[jamesMarion]

Psalms 23:6
"Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever."
A sinner that deserves death: yet I have been given this promise of eternal life.

 

[nhzname]

~ Psalm 74:12 ~ But you, O God, are my king from of old; you bring salvation upon the earth.


Praise your Holy name!

 

[FoundInGrace]

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me;
your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

You prepare a table before me in the prescence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
forever.

Ps 23

 

[nhzname]

~ Psalm 75:9 ~ As for me, I will declare this forever; I will sing praise to the God of Jacob.

Ps 118:1-9

"Give thanks to the Lord,

for he is good!

His faithful love endures forever."​

 

[lovinChrist4ever]

Be still and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Psalms 46:10-11

 

[soblessed53]

I love Psalms 30 and think of it as my testimony of running back to the Lord after my husband died,and almost 20 years in a backslidden state.

Psa 30:1 [[A Psalm [and] Song [at] the dedication of the house of David.]] I will extol thee, O LORD; for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.

Psa 30:2 O LORD my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.

Psa 30:3 O LORD, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

Psa 30:4 Sing unto the LORD, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.

Psa 30:5 For his anger [endureth but] a moment; in his favour [is] life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy [cometh] in the morning.

Psa 30:6 And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved.

Psa 30:7 LORD, by thy favour thou hast made my mountain to stand strong: thou didst hide thy face, [and] I was troubled.

Psa 30:8 I cried to thee, O LORD; and unto the LORD I made supplication.

Psa 30:9 What profit [is there] in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?

Psa 30:10 Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me: LORD, be thou my helper.

Psa 30:11 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;

Psa 30:12 To the end that [my] glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.

This is a good verse for the night:


Psalm 4:8 "I will lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety."

 

[NorwayUnn]

Psalm 125:2

As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds his people both now and forevermore.
