145. Continued. The Lord is gracious, compassionate, slow to anger and rich in lovingkindness. Your creation praises You. People will know about You because Your people will tell them. Your kingdom will last forever, through all generations. You satisfy the needs of every living thing. The Lord satisfies the desires of those who love and worship Him. He loves those who love Him and pray sincerely to Him, but He destroys the wicked. My mouth will speak praise, let all creatures praise Him forever.
146. The Lord an Abundant Helper. I will praise God as long as I live. Do not put your trust in mortal leaders or men who cannot save you. They die just like everyone else and their grand plans die with them. Blessed is the person whose help and hope comes from God. He feeds people, sets prisoners free, gives sight to the blind, lifts those bowed down and the righteous. The Lord watches over travelers, orphans and widows. He frustrates the ways of the wicked. The Lord reigns forever over all generations. Praise the Lord.
147. The Might and Grace of the Lord. How good and pleasant it is to praise God. The Lord restores Jerusalem and heals our bodies and souls. He decides how many stars there are and calls them all by name. Great and mighty is the power of God, His understanding is limitless. God helps the humble and throws the wicked to the ground. Give thanks to God for all He does. He makes rain fall and grass grow to feed the cattle and young ravens when they call. The Lord's delight isn't in the strength of beast or man, but in those who love Him and hope in His unfailing love. Praise God, Jerusalem, He satisfies all your needs. By His command snow falls, frost scatters, and hail hurls down. Who can stand the cold? He commands the ice to melt, the wind to blow and the streams to flow. He has revealed His word and laws to the Israelites, but not for any other nation. Praise the Lord.
148. Nature's Praise of the Lord. Praise the Lord in the highest heavens, all angels and heavenly hosts. Praise Him sun, moon and stars of light. Even the waters in heaven, praise the Lord! Let them praise Him for creating them and making a place for them forever.
Tomorrow read Psalms 148:7-150; Proverbs 1-2:9
