“Better Is One Day in Your Courts”
Psalm 84:1-12
Series: Psalms, Hymns, & Spiritual Songs
Psalm 84 stirs thoughts of praise and anticipation. It focuses the worshiper’s attention on past experiences that lead to future desires. He looks to the Temple hoping and asking for another journey (a pilgrimage) into the presence of God. His wants to be with the Lord Almighty.
This Psalm is an opportunity for us to reflect on what we long for and discover what we can find in our journey to the Lord Almighty.
We can look …
… to
the Lord Almighty (vs 1-2)
… to
the Lord Almighty (vs 3-7)
… to
the Lord God Almighty (vs 8-11)
… to
the Lord Almighty (vs 12)
Memory Verse: “Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere; I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked.”
(Psalm 84:10 NIV)
