Psalm 60

Today's Passage: Psalm 60 

In Psalm 60, God’s attributes are on full display.

There are great works that have been written about the attributes of God.

The goal of studying the attributes of God is not just intellectual, as important as that is. The goal is also devotional.

The more you know God, the more you should love him. The more you love him, the more your life should be conformed to him.

“You become what you behold.”

Here are some of the ways we see God’s attributes in this Psalm:

Power

Psalm 60:2

    [2] You have made the land to quake; you have torn it open;
        repair its breaches, for it totters.

Deliverance & Salvation

Psalm 60:5

    [5] That your beloved ones may be delivered,
        give salvation by your right hand and answer us!

Holiness

Psalm 60:6

    [6] God has spoken in his holiness:
        “With exultation I will divide up Shechem
        and portion out the Vale of Succoth.

Victory

Psalm 60:11-12

    [11] Oh, grant us help against the foe,
        for vain is the salvation of man!
    [12] With God we shall do valiantly;
        it is he who will tread down our foes.

Know God. Love God. Live for God.
