Devotional: Psalm 69:30-36

Today’s passage: Psalm 69:30-36

Helpful thoughts:

  • Micah 6:6-8
  • Only the humbled can appreciate the mercy and grace of God.  Pride insists on recognition of our acts.
    • Humility produces gladness/JOY.  Pride produces bitterness.
  • God will save Zion.  It will be possessed, inherited and dwelt in by His people.
    • Christ has risen from the dead.  The battle is already won.

Questions to consider:

  1. What is the incredible irony of the insistence of the proud to receive recognition for their acts?  What do all men deserve? (Romans 6:23)
  2. Why are we on the victorious side of this war?  What was accomplished?  Who accomplished it?  What remains to be done?
  3. How does our humility in the midst of all this truth give us greater joy than if we had to accomplish it all on our own?
