Psalm 27: 1, 4, 6-8, 30:4-5, 11-12, 31:1,3, 14, 23-24, 34:1-9, 37:4-5, 47:1, 5-8 & 48:1-3

 

(Psalm 27:) he Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? / One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord. / I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the Lord. / Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me. / When thou saidst, "Seek ye my face;" my heart said unto thee, "Thy face, Lord, will I seek."


(Psalm 30:4-5 & 11-12) Sing unto the Lord, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness. / ...Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. / Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness; To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.


(Psalm 31:1,3, 14, & 23-24) In thee, O Lord, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness. For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name's sake lead me, and guide me. / But I trusted in thee, O Lord: I said, Thou art my God. / O love the Lord, all ye his saints: for the Lord preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer. Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the Lord.


(Psalm 34:1-9) I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth. / My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad. / O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together. / I sought the Lord, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. They looked unto him, and were lightened... / The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. / O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. / O fear the Lord, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.


(Psalm 37:4-5)Delight thyself also in the Lord: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.


(Psalm 47:1 & 5-8) O clap your hands, all ye people; shout unto God with the voice of triumph. / God is gone up with a shout, the Lord with the sound of a trumpet. / Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises. / For God is the King of all the earth: sing ye praises with understanding. / God reigneth... God sitteth upon the throne of his holiness.

(Note: I just want to make very, very clear that the castle you have and will see in several of my Bible journal drawings is one I have been drawing for around 35 years. In no way is it meant to represent any of the Disney castles, as I do not support Disney.  I think at the time I first drew it, I had only been inspired by a book on medieval castles, but I cannot remember which one.)

(Psalm 48:1-3) Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of his holiness. / Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King. / God is known in her palaces for a refuge.
