Saturday, October 3: The seas have lifted up their voice

Read

Read Psalm 93

The Lord reigns, he is robed in majesty;

the Lord is robed in majesty and armed with strength;

indeed, the world is established, firm and secure.

Your throne was established long ago;

you are from all eternity.

The seas have lifted up, Lord,

the seas have lifted up their voice;

the seas have lifted up their pounding waves.

Mightier than the thunder of the great waters,

mightier than the breakers of the sea—

the Lord on high is mighty.

Your statutes, Lord, stand firm;

holiness adorns your house

for endless days.

Reflect

Notice the repetition of words and phrases here that's so common in the Psalms and other ancient Hebrew poetry. In this psalm in particular, what effect do the repeated selections have on your understanding of what's being communicated?

Respond

Pray this section back to God: The seas have lifted up, Lord, the seas have lifted up their voice; the seas have lifted up their pounding waves. Mightier than the thunder of the great waters, mightier than the breakers of the sea—the Lord on high is mighty.
