Day 27

PSALM 27: Being with God

There has been a growing theme in Psalms of being with God in his dwelling place. Have a look at the following verses and note the various key words and ideas: 2:6, 3:4, 23:6, 24:3-6, 26:6-8.

What is it about God’s presence that is so desirable for the psalmist in Psalm 27?

How does Jesus fulfil our desire and need to be close to God (see Matt 28:20b)? What is yet to come (compare 1 John 3:2-3)?

Today’s Prayer Suggestions

1.Ask God to deepen your desire to dwell in His presence and to wait patiently on Him.

2. Pray for wisdom for those leading New City Kids and Youth as they share God's Word with young people, that children and youth in our church would come to know and believe the rich truths this passage teaches.

3. Pray for QUT Christians' staff team as they continue to adapt to new roles and responsibilities in 2025.
