52 Reasons To Read Psalm

PSALMS TO LEARN AND LOVE

52 REASONS TO READ PSALMS / Psalm 1

God’s Word was written to be studied, understood, and applied, and the book of Psalms lends itself most directly to
application. We understand the psalms best when we “stand under” them and allow them to flow over us like a rain shower.

We may turn to Psalms looking for something, but sooner or later we will meet Someone.

As we read and memorize the psalms, we will gradually discover how much they are already part of us. They put into words our deepest hurts, longings, thoughts, and prayers. They gently push us toward being what God designed us to be—people loving and living for him.

PSALMS TO LEARN AND LOVE / Psalm 24

Almost everyone, whether religious or not, has heard Psalm 23 because it is quoted so frequently. Many other psalms are also familiar because they are quoted in music, in literature, or in the words of the worship service. The psalms we know and love are the ones that come into our minds when we need them. They inspire us, comfort us, correct us just when we need a word from the Lord. If you want to begin memorizing psalms, start with some of these favorites. Memorize the whole psalm or just the verses that speak most directly to you. Or read the psalm aloud several times a day until it is part of you.

CHRIST IN THE PSALMS / Psalm 22

Both the Jewish and Christian faiths have long believed that many psalms referred as much to the promised Messiah as they did to events at the time.
Because the Messiah was to be a descendant of David, it was expected that many of the royal psalms would apply to him. Christians noted how many of the
passages seemed to describe in detail events from Christ’s life and death. Jesus himself frequently quoted from Psalms. Almost everything that happened at
the Crucifixion and most of Jesus’ words during his final hours were prophesied in Psalms. The following is a list of the main references in Psalms pertaining to Christ.
