Royal Psalms

August 12

Daily Bible Reading: Psalms 93 – 95

Verse of the Day: Psalm 93:1 – “Jehovah reigneth; he is clothed with majesty; Jehovah is clothed with strength; he hath girded himself therewith: The world also is established, that it cannot be moved.”

Some of the most inspiring Psalms are the ones categorized as Royal Psalms. In general, they speak of God as King in three different ways. He is King over Creation – He is the Creator. He is King over the Israelites because He is their savior, and He is the Coming King that will judge everyone. We can see this pictured in that He is reigning as said in our verse for today, and He is also coming to establish His permanent rule as pictured in Psalm 24:9.

As we meditate upon the incredible truth of God’s kingship, let it sink deeply into our hearts and minds.

Prayer: Majestic King of Glory, I bow humbly before You today. Speak to your servant, make Yourself plainly known. Draw me close to You all day. Amen.
