(Reading May 2-May 8)
19. Christ in the Psalms
Key Point:
The psalms continue in expressions from the heart in praise and thanksgiving to God. We will look also at the "messianic psalms" that refer to the coming of Jesus, the Messiah.
Key Verse:
Praise the LORD, O my soul.
I will praise the LORD all my life.
I will sing praise to my God as long as I live. (Psalm 146:2 , DB page 580)

Thought Questions:
1. Psalm 119 (DB page 554) is an acrostic-the verses of each stanza begin with the same letter of the Hebrew alphabet. Use Psalm 119 to make an acrostic of the benefits of God's word.
2. Why does Psalm 136 (DB page 564) repeat the same phrase over and over?
3. Read Psalm 139 (DB page 566). How does David feel about God's total knowledge of him?
4. How do you see the Messiah predicted in Psalms?
