Key #Scripture: #Psalm 117:1-2 Praise the Lord, all Nations! Extol him, all peoples! For great is His steadfast love toward us, and the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever. Praise the Lord!

The Psalms span a time frame of about a 1000 years. Most of the Psalms were written between 1010 and 930 BC during the time of #David and his son #Solomon. The oldest psalm, Psalm 90, was written by #Moses in approximately 1500 BC, when the first generation of Israelites were dying in the wilderness after the #Exodus. #Ezra was most likely the final editor of the work in 450 BC in celebration and thanksgiving after returning the exiles to Jerusalem.

#psalm #108
O #God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.

2 Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.

3 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.

4 For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds.

5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth;

6 That thy beloved may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.

7 God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

8 Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;

9 Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.

10 Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?

11 Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts?

12 Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.

13 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
