Morning Psalm and Prayer

Earthly Kings rise to fame but eventually their mortality its toll. But the King of Heaven, the King of King, endures forever. He reigns and someday will reign on His throne in Zion. Praise His name - the one who is the same yesterday, today and forever!

Who you choose as friends matters. What you associate with matters. What we listen to shapes you. Do an inventory of your friendship circle from time to time. Maybe it's time to move on from some and add some others. God has given us a congregation of fellow believers. Find your people there.

Psalm 100 -- a famous and often quoted psalm. We are blessed by these inspired words. We are God's people. We come before Him with joyful song. We use the two keys to open the doors to His presence - the key of thanksgiving gets us through the gates and then the key of praise takes us into His enter courts.

The Lord your God Reigns over the entire earth. He is mighty. And He is Holy! Lord today we submit the exalted King of Kings. He rules over nations and also in the hearts of His followers.

Song has always been part of the Christian faith. Many of the Psalms are indicated as songs. Throughout the Bible there are the lyrics of songs prompted by your Holy Spirit. When we come into saving faith, we too want to sing for joy to the loving God of our Salvation - the one True God - the God of the Holy Bible.

Righteousness and Justice are the foundation of God's throne. There is none like Him. He has no rival. All adversaries in the heavens and on earth melt before your presence. Yet He loves and shelters His people. Be glad! Rejoice! Love God and Hate Evil!

The Lord loves you and fills you with joy. He puts a new song in your heart. The Lord our God is great and greatly to be praised! Boast in the Lord today and declare His name!

The Lord is our God ... the Great King and Shepherd! This Psalm reminds us to sing, to shout, to rejoice in the victory that Jesus won for us. Here the Psalmist reveals a key to God's presence. Listen closely for it. And help us listen closely for the voice of God because He is still speaking today!

The Lord is ever present. He sees. He hears. He is the rock of protection for His people. Fear not because of evil doers. The Lord notices and keeps a record. God will not abandon you. He is your refuge and hope!

The Lord our God reigns in majesty! He reigns from His eternal throne in heaven. He has established the earth, given us His testimonies and placed His people on solid ground. Bless the Lord today! Rejoice in your God!
