Shalom,

I want to share the Psalm from our Spoken Word Bible Reading Plan for today! It is POWERFUL and will be in our lives IF we are DOERS of it!

Psalm 4   To the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of David.

1 Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness (uprightness, justice, and right standing with You)! You have freed me when I was hemmed in and enlarged me when I was in distress; have mercy upon me and hear my prayer.
2 O you sons of men, how long will you turn my honor and glory into shame? How long will you love vanity and futility and seek after lies? Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]!
3 But know that the Lord has set apart for Himself [and given distinction to] him who is godly [the man of loving-kindness]. The Lord listens and heeds when I call to Him.
4 Be angry [or stand in awe] and sin not; commune with your own hearts upon your beds and be silent (sorry for the things you say in your hearts). Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]!
5 Offer just and right sacrifices; trust (lean on and be confident) in the Lord.
6 Many say, Oh, that we might see some good! Lift up the light of Your countenance upon us, O Lord.
7 You have put more joy and rejoicing in my heart than [they know] when their wheat and new wine have yielded abundantly.
8 In peace I will both lie down and sleep, for You, Lord, alone make me dwell in safety and confident trust.

AMEN! OUR GOD is a GOOD, GOOD GOD! Put HIM first place in YOUR life and HE will keep you FIRST PLACE in HIS! Here is Brooke Ligertwood with "Fear of God":

Shalom in Him!
