Devotional: Psalm 36

Today’s passage: Psalm 36

Helpful thoughts:

  • A low view of God results in an exalted view of myself.  Neither is correct.
  • David remedies these wrong views by recounting the attributes of God.
  • When we remember that God is the rightful Lord and judge, we see other people differently as well.

Questions to consider:

  1. Why does a high view of ourselves (Pride) result in so much sin?  What is found when we magnify our own hearts and self-interested desires?
  2. How does a right view of God change our relationship with Him and to Him?  How does it help us to agree with Paul in 2 Corinthians 5:9?
  3. Why won’t people and their opinions be able to control me when I rightly fear the Lord?
