Meditations in the Psalms

April 12th

Psalm 48:9-14

The exaltation of our God should be our daily habit. Life is filled with many difficult people and situations, and it is quite easy to focus on the problems we have, and not on the God Who can not only help us cope now, but has promised us a glorious future – He is coming, and He is “our God for ever and ever.”

1. The mercy of our God that causes us to praise Him – verses 9-10
2. The message of rejoicing we should bring to all generations – verses 11-13
3. The meaning of His presence and promise – verse 14

That’s what we need to hear – v. 11 – “rejoice” and “be glad” – God will be with us through it all and has promised to be our “Guide.”

Verse for Meditation
