87. The Privileges of Citizenship in Zion. The City of God, Zion also known as Jerusalem or The City of David, had a reputation as being blessed by God. It would be a good thing to be born there. Songs would say that all joy springs from the City of God.
88. Prayer in the Face of Death. He asked God to hear his prayer. He was troubled because he was near death and he felt alone and afraid. He wondered whether God’s love was present in the grave. He had suffered affliction from the time he was young. His companions and loved ones had been taken from him so that darkness was his closest friend.
89. God’s Covenant with David. Ethan would sing of God’s great love forever. He would tell future generations that God’s love can always be trusted. He said one of David’s descendants would always be king. God is more glorious than any other beings in heaven. He rules the roaring sea and calms the waves. He crushed enemies and the whole earth belongs to Him. The Lord blesses all who come to Him. They are happy because of Him. God’s power made them strong. God chose David to be king and would always be there to help him. David could count on God’s never ending love. David’s family would always rule as long as the sun and moon appear in the sky.
Tomorrow read Psalms 89:38-91:13
