The Psalms provide the contemporary Christian poetic vehicles to express thanksgiving and praise. The beautiful words of David and the other composers of their words are placed by the Holy Spirit at the center of our Bible for handy use on a frequent basis. In fact, these themes are so thoroughly treated in the Psalms that they don’t require much repetition in the complement of scripture.

The Psalms are God’s exhaustive treatise for the believer on praise and worship.

PRAYER: Father, we thank You for the beautiful words and expressions about Your greatness that we find in the Psalms. We will thereby use them for the rest of our earthly lives to sing to You.
