I have been composing a daily tweet on a psalm for over two years now. These tweets are in canonical order and I am now on journey number 6. I have made #psalmtweets a spiritual discipline as part of my daily devotions. In the current journey of tweets I am attempting to let the Psalms speak for themselves about what they are and what they do. Here are the first 10 from voyage 6:
Psalm 1:
The Psalms are a day and night meditative prayer school.
Psalm 2:
The Psalms explore the kingship of Yahweh and his anointed son.
Psalm 3:
The Psalms express absolute trust in Yahweh as a protective shield.
Psalm 4:
The Psalms give us words to call on Yahweh and reassurance that he hears us.
Psalm 5:
The Psalms show us that Yahweh cares about how others treat us. We can, and should, talk to Him.
Psalm 6:
The Psalms reveal that sometimes we must wait for Yahweh’s deliverance.
Psalm 7:
The Psalms help us reflect and confess by enriching our prayer vocabulary.
Psalm 8:
The Psalms celebrate Yahweh as Creator; they help us worship Him and delight in Creation.
Psalm 9:
The Psalms continually reflect on Yahweh who rules from Zion; a God who dwells with His people.
Psalm 10:
The Psalms teach us about both Yahweh’s faithfulness and the fickleness of His creatures.
