Reading – Psalms 109-111

Highlight Verse:

“Great are the works of the Lord; they are pondered by all who delight in them.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭111‬:‭2‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Growing up in the Lutheran Church, some of the basic building blocks of my faith came from Confirmation Class (Catechism).

One of the basics I remember from that class was the A.C.T.S of prayer.

That stands for:

• Acclamation
• Confession
• Thanksgiving
• Supplication

Many times, we tend to skip straight to the Supplication (or asking for things) part of the prayer without thinking about giving praise, confessing our sins, and giving thanks.

I think David and the other psalmists had it right when they concentrated on praising God for His many great works.

What are some of the great works of God that you have seen in your life?
What are some of the things you can thank Him for?
