Today's bible teaching: When the LORD restores the fortunes of his people, let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad

 Psalm 14

1
Psalm 14 For the director of music. Of David.
1
The fool says in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; there is no one who does good.
2
The LORD looks down from heaven on the sons of men to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God.
3
All have turned aside, they have together become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one.
4
Will evildoers never learn-- those who devour my people as men eat bread and who do not call on the LORD?
5
There they are, overwhelmed with dread, for God is present in the company of the righteous.
6
You evildoers frustrate the plans of the poor, but the LORD is their refuge.
7
Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion! When the LORD restores the fortunes of his people, let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad!

        Today's bible teaching: Though they plot evil against you and devise wicked schemes, they cannot succeed; for you will make them turn their backs when you aim at them with drawn bow

         Psalm 21

        1
        Psalm 21 For the director of music. A psalm of David.
        1
        O LORD, the king rejoices in your strength. How great is his joy in the victories you give!
        2
        You have granted him the desire of his heart and have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah
        3
        You welcomed him with rich blessings and placed a crown of pure gold on his head.
        4
        He asked you for life, and you gave it to him-- length of days, for ever and ever.
        5
        Through the victories you gave, his glory is great; you have bestowed on him splendor and majesty.
        6
        Surely you have granted him eternal blessings and made him glad with the joy of your presence.
        7
        For the king trusts in the LORD; through the unfailing love of the Most High he will not be shaken.
        8
        Your hand will lay hold on all your enemies; your right hand will seize your foes.
        9
        At the time of your appearing you will make them like a fiery furnace. In his wrath the LORD will swallow them up, and his fire will consume them.
        10
        You will destroy their descendants from the earth, their posterity from mankind.
        11
        Though they plot evil against you and devise wicked schemes, they cannot succeed;
        12
        for you will make them turn their backs when you aim at them with drawn bow.
        13
        Be exalted, O LORD, in your strength; we will sing and praise your might.

            Today's bible teaching: Rejoice in the LORD, you who are righteous, and praise his holy name

             Psalm 97

            1
            Psalm 97
            1
            The LORD reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice.
            2
            Clouds and thick darkness surround him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
            3
            Fire goes before him and consumes his foes on every side.
            4
            His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles.
            5
            The mountains melt like wax before the LORD, before the Lord of all the earth.
            6
            The heavens proclaim his righteousness, and all the peoples see his glory.
            7
            All who worship images are put to shame, those who boast in idols-- worship him, all you gods!
            8
            Zion hears and rejoices and the villages of Judah are glad because of your judgments, O LORD.
            9
            For you, O LORD, are the Most High over all the earth; you are exalted far above all gods.
            10
            Let those who love the LORD hate evil, for he guards the lives of his faithful ones and delivers them from the hand of the wicked.
            11
            Light is shed upon the righteous and joy on the upright in heart.
            12
            Rejoice in the LORD, you who are righteous, and praise his holy name.

                Today's bible teaching: The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon; planted in the house of the LORD, they will flourish in the courts of our God

                 Psalm 92

                1
                Psalm 92 A psalm. A song. For the Sabbath day.
                1
                It is good to praise the LORD and make music to your name, O Most High,
                2
                to proclaim your love in the morning and your faithfulness at night,
                3
                to the music of the ten-stringed lyre and the melody of the harp.
                4
                For you make me glad by your deeds, O LORD; I sing for joy at the works of your hands.
                5
                How great are your works, O LORD, how profound your thoughts!
                6
                The senseless man does not know, fools do not understand,
                7
                that though the wicked spring up like grass and all evildoers flourish, they will be forever destroyed.
                8
                But you, O LORD, are exalted forever.
                9
                For surely your enemies, O LORD, surely your enemies will perish; all evildoers will be scattered.
                10
                You have exalted my horn [1] like that of a wild ox; fine oils have been poured upon me.
                11
                My eyes have seen the defeat of my adversaries; my ears have heard the rout of my wicked foes.
                12
                The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon;
                13
                planted in the house of the LORD, they will flourish in the courts of our God.
                14
                They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green,
                15
                proclaiming, "The LORD is upright; he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him."
