Praise ye the LORD. O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD? who can shew forth all his praise? Blessed are they that keep judgment, and he that doeth righteousness at all times. Remember me, O LORD, with the favour that thou bearest unto thy people: O visit me with thy salvation; That I may see the good of thy chosen, that I may rejoice in the gladness of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance.

Get ready for a longish Psalm dedicated to the praise of the LORD, God, the Almighty. As we work our way through this paean of praise, let us dig out the various ‘hints’ regarding how he wants to be praised, specifically regarding His directions to His people about acceptable forms of praise. I see a couple of distinct elements. The first is a filling of our mouths and minds with who He is, His very completeness. The second is a plea for Him to replicate like elements in His people.

An alternate Reading Plan is based on 7 chapters/day from 7 sections of the Scriptures. My groupings are: Genesis-Joshua, Judges to Esther, Job to Song of Solomon, Psalms breaking 119 into convenient sets, Isaiah to Malachi, Matthew to Acts, Romans to Revelation.

Or set your own reading schedule up in convenient groupings as fits your study habits. But a daily time in the Word of the LORD is an absolute.
