Restoration and Rejoicing God’s Mercy Renewed

Today’s Psalms, 85 through 87, reveal the profound journey from repentance to restoration and celebration. The psalmist acknowledges past forgiveness and looks forward to God’s continual mercy and faithfulness. 🌿 Psalm 85: The Promise of Restoration “Turn us, O God of salvation, and cause thine anger toward us to cease.” (Psalm 85:4, KJV) This psalm expresses a heartfelt plea for God to restore His people after discipline. It beautifully balances confession, hope, and praise as the psalmist trusts that God will renew His favor. “Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.” (v.10) This union of mercy and truth symbolizes the perfect harmony in God’s kingdom. 🎶 Psalm 86: A Prayer for Help and Mercy David cries out in humility, asking God for mercy and protection: “Bow down thine ear, O Lord, hear me: for I am poor and needy.” (v.1) The psalm reveals the heart of a humble worshiper, fully dependent on God’s unfailing love. 🎉 Psalm 87: The Glorious City of God This psalm celebrates Zion as the beloved city where God’s name is cherished. “Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God.” (v.3) The nations and peoples gather here, united by God’s grace. Together, these psalms remind us that God’s restoration leads to joy and unity—a restored people praising their faithful God. #DailyPsalmsJourney #Psalm85 #MercyAndTruth #PeaceAndRighteousness #June2 #BibleVerse #KJV #prayer #jesus #jesuschrist #bible #amen #scripture
