Day 127 – Psalms: Book 3

“You, O God, are my king from ages past, bringing salvation to the earth.” Psalm 74:12 NLT

Reading Psalm 73 to Psalm 89

This collection of Psalms, categorised in Book 3, is like the book of Leviticus and mostly written by Asaph or Asaph’s descendants. Just as Leviticus discusses the Tabernacle and God’s holiness, many of these scriptures discuss the Temple and God’s enthronement. Because God is almighty, we can turn to Him for deliverance. These Psalms praise God because He alone is holy, and His perfect holiness deserves our worship and reverence.

These Psalms celebrate God’s sovereignty, His role in history, His faithfulness, and His covenant with David. They remind us that worship and prayer should be continuous in our lives.

Prayer: Father, You alone are worthy, and we praise and worship You with the words of these Psalms. Thank You, Lord, for teaching us about the Tabernacle and for enabling us to approach Your throne through the sacrifice and redemption that Jesus Christ provided us through His blood. Amen.
