They have seen Your procession, O God, The procession of my God, my King, into the sanctuary. The singers went before, the players on instruments followed after; Among them were the maidens playing timbrels.
What a procession into the sanctuary! The singers with their sacred hymns, a marching band with drums and other instruments; all raising their voices and instruments in praise to Yahweh.
Compare that to our assembling on the LORD's Day morning in the Sanctuary to worship Him. A lot of happy chatter but a discussion regarding the basketball game between the Red Sox and the Blue Jays can hardly be regarded as preparation for worship.
Shouldn't this be a time for reviewing the Scriptures for the day, or the sermon notes or the hymns to be sung. What will bring our minds and hearts to bare on the One who gave His all for us?
Reading
Morning Psalm 148, Noon Psalm 119:49-56, Evening Psalm 44
Alternate Reading Plan based on 7 chapters/day from 7 sections of the Scriptures. My groupings are: Genesis-Joshua, Judges to Esther, Job to Song of Solomon, Psalms breaking 119 into convenient sets, Isaiah to Malachi, Matthew to Acts, Romans to Revelation.
Set your own up in convenient groupings as fits your study habits.
I suggest either setting aside a period of the day to read all, or break the readings up into morning, mid-day, and evening series. Both approaches have their advantages, and both will build an awareness of the Bible as a whole over time.
