Psalm 2. ESV
Why are the nations restless And the peoples plotting in vain? The kings of the earth take their stand And the rulers conspire together Against the LORD and against His Anointed, saying, “Let’s tear their shackles apart And throw their ropes away from us!” He who sits in the heavens laughs, The Lord scoffs at them. Then He will speak to them in His anger And terrify them in His fury, saying, “But as for Me, I have installed My King Upon Zion, My holy mountain.” “I will announce the decree of the LORD: He said to Me, ‘You are My Son, Today I have fathered You. ‘Ask it of Me, and I will certainly give the nations as Your inheritance, And the ends of the earth as Your possession .‘You shall break them with a rod of iron, You shall shatter them like earthenware.’” Now then, you kings, use insight; Let yourselves be instructed, you judges of the earth. Serve the LORD with reverence And rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, that He not be angry and you perish on the way, For His wrath may be kindled quickly. How blessed are all who take refuge in Him!
Psalm 2. JNV
If there is one notion that unites nations and peoples, it is the LORD, God, the Almighty and those that swear allegiance to the Trinitarian God. Why is it impossible for rulers and ruled to see that God, the Father, God, the Son, and God, the Holy Spirit unite for the good of all?
It is not surprising in the very least that the LORD, God, the Almighty laughs and scoffs. No more surprising that the LORD of the universe’s patience finally ends and He explodes in terrifying fury.” His King has been installed upon Zion, His Holy Mountain.
He has declared that His Son has inherited all; all to do with as He sees fit to break their rebellious spirit and strew as broken earthenware, as shards of useless pottery.
But, and a huge but it is. Those rebellious leaders are invited to return to the Family of God in reverence and obedience. To kiss the Son, appease His anger, and once again, take refuge in Him

Reading
Morning Psalm 18, Noon Psalm 119:145-152, Evening Psalm 99.. If you follow this regimen, you will pray through the Psalms every 47 days or just under 8 times per year.
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. This plan, over a several year period will result in an average reading of the entire Bible in slightly over twice per year. I've been following this plan since 1989 and still find the mixture of Scriptures presented each day to be a delightful way to end my day. The NLB app has a scheduling tool that assists greatly in keeping track of the reading list.
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.
Suggested Supplementary Reading
Our Dance With Grace, Spending the Day With God, by Rev. Gerald Skillicorn, Kindle Press. Jerry’s writing, as is characteristic with his life, bubbles over with his joy of being in the presence of the LORD, God, the Almighty.
