    Psalm 100 (ESV)

    His Steadfast Love Endures Forever

    A Psalm for giving thanks.

    1 Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!
    2 Serve the Lord with gladness!
    Come into his presence with singing!

    3 Know that the Lord, he is God!
    It is he who made us, and we are his;
    we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

    4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving,
    and his courts with praise!
    Give thanks to him; bless his name!

    5 For the Lord is good;
    his steadfast love endures forever,
    and his faithfulness to all generations.

     

    REFLECTION:

    1. The psalmist invited God’s people to approach the Lord with joy. We can serve God gladly because He is the creator, and we can worship Him thankfully because He is good and faithful.
    2. We appreciate the fact that our God is the sovereign God. And acknowledge that He has created us and that we are not self-made individuals. We belong to Him, and we partake of what He graciously provides for us.
    3. In response, we are called to enter into worship with thanksgiving in our hearts and live with liberating trust in God. We are to confess that God’s steadfast love and faithfulness will never fail. This opens the way for us to be joyful and glad.
    4. How might it help you personally to “know that the LORD is God,” that you are made by Him, and “the sheep of His pasture”?
    5. God is inviting you to worship Him with gladness. Offer a brief song or poem or prayer of worship or praise to God.

     

    PRAYER:

    Stay with God for a little longer.  Continue to converse with God and listen to what He wants to tell you.  Then write down any thought and/or prayer in your spiritual journal.

“My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.” (John 10:27)

In January 2009, PGC started the “260 Appointments with God” Bible Reading and Devotion program. From September 2017, the program has a vision to help brothers and sisters do devotion and reading through the whole Bible in four and a half years starting with the Book of Genesis. The program was renamed to “Listening to God” in January 2020. Thank the Lord the first cycle finished with Revelation on March 25, 2022. From March 28, 2022 “Listening to God” began another cycle starting with Genesis. The order of the books is alternated between the Old and New Testaments. For details, please refer to Bible Reading and Devotion Book Sequence.

All participants can track their progress of Bible reading using the PGC Bible Reading Chart. PGC participants can also track their Bible reading progress online and query through the Bible Reading Record Query page. PGC participants who do not have an account should create an account according to the instructions in the Registration page. The Bible Reading Record Query will allow tracking of personal progress after logging in. Even without logging in, you can still use the Bible Reading Record Query for fast access of the devotion information.

May brothers and sisters listen to and obey God’s Word every day, and be the Lord’s disciples.
