Read Psalm 34 today.
​

Why happened when the psalmist sought the Lord?
What benefits does one get when he tastes of the Lord?
How does the Lord respond to the righteous who cry out to him?

Those who draw near to God through honesty find that God is already near.

As you reflect on this, pray in these ways and any other way the Holy Spirit leads.

We would proclaim the greatness of the Lord and give gratitude and glory to God.
For the brokenhearted, that the Lord may be their help, and that we might extend God’s love to them.
For deliverance and protection for all who cry out to God for refuge.
To be strengthened by God’s presence.
 
God’s Goodness
A song by King David composed after his escape from the king when he pretended to be insane
 
1  Lord! I’m bursting with joy over what you’ve done for me!
My lips are full of perpetual praise.
2  I’m boasting of you and all your works,
so let all who are discouraged take heart.
3  Join me, everyone! Let’s praise the Lord together.
Let’s make him famous!
Let’s make his name glorious to all.
4  Listen to my testimony: I cried to God in my distress
and he answered me. He freed me from all my fears!
5  Gaze upon him, join your life with his, and joy will come.
Your faces will glisten with glory.
You’ll never wear that shame-face again.
6  When I had nothing, desperate and defeated,
I cried out to the Lord and he heard me,
bringing his miracle-deliverance when I needed it most. 
7  The angel of Yahweh stooped down to listen as I prayed,
encircling me, empowering me, and showing me how to escape.
He will do this for everyone who fears God.
8  Drink deeply of the pleasures of this God.
Experience for yourself the joyous mercies he gives
to all who turn to hide themselves in him.
9  Worship in awe and wonder, all you who’ve been made holy!
For all who fear him will feast with plenty.
10Even the strong and the wealthy grow weak and hungry,
but those who passionately pursue the Lord
will never lack any good thing.
11Come, children of God, and listen to me.
I’ll share the lesson I’ve learned of fearing the Lord:
12-13Do you want to live a long, good life,
enjoying the beauty that fills each day?
Then never speak a lie or allow wicked words
to come from your mouth.
14Keep turning your back on every sin,
and make “peace” your life motto.
Practice being at peace with everyone. 
15The Lord sees all we do;
he watches over his friends day and night.
His godly ones receive the answers they seek
whenever they cry out to him.
16But the Lord has made up his mind to oppose evildoers
and to wipe out even the memory of them
from the face of the earth. 
17Yet when holy lovers of God cry out
to him with all their hearts,
the Lord will hear them and come to rescue them
from all their troubles.
18The Lord is close to all whose hearts are crushed by pain,
and he is always ready to restore the repentant one.
19Even when bad things happen to the good and godly ones,
the Lord will save them and not let them be defeated
by what they face.
20God will be your bodyguard to protect you
when trouble is near.
Not one bone will be broken.
21Evil will cause the death of the wicked,
for they hate and persecute the devoted lovers of God.
Make no mistake about it:
God will hold them guilty and punish them;
they will pay the penalty!
22But the Lord has paid for the freedom of his servants,
and he will freely pardon those who love him.
He will declare them free and innocent
when they turn to hide themselves in him.
