Introduction

This psalm affirms that God is the supreme king and that God alone is holy. It concludes the collection of psalms we have been reading the past several days that praise God as king and righteous judge.

Scripture Reading

Psalm 99

Today’s Key Verse: Psalm 99:5

Praise the LORD our God; worship before his throne! Holy is he!

Reflect

What has the psalm writer said about God in verses 1 and 2?Verses 3 and 5 end with the words “Holy is he!” and verse 9 concludes with similar words. What does it mean to you that God is holy? Verses 6 and 7 include references to leaders in Israel’s past—Moses, Aaron, and Samuel—and how God spoke to them. Moses led the people out of Egypt (Exodus 12:37—14:31); Aaron was Moses’s brother and he and his sons became Israel’s first priests (Exodus 28:1); Samuel led the people after the time of the judges until Israel got its first king (1 Samuel 12:1-25). While the Israelites were in the wilderness, God appeared in the form of a cloud (Exodus 19:9; 33:9). In what ways do you experience God’s presence in your life?

Pray

Holy are you, Lord God, king of all creation. I worship and adore you and praise you for your deeds of righteousness and justice. As I listen for your voice, teach me your ways and order my steps this day. In your holy name, I pray. Amen.
