Day 158: Blessedness, Refuge, and Righteousness in Psalm 1-5 | Bible In A Year (CSB)

On Day 158 of our "Bible in a Year" journey, we begin the Psalms with chapters 1-5. These opening poems contrast the way of the righteous with the wicked, celebrate God’s law, and cry out for divine protection and justice. Through vivid imagery, they invite trust in God as the ultimate refuge and king.

Questions:
1. Psalm 1 contrasts the flourishing righteous with the fleeting wicked—how does this imagery challenge us to consider the enduring value of rooting our lives in God’s Word over worldly pursuits?

2. The cries for refuge in Psalms 3-5 express deep trust amid distress—how might these prayers prompt us to reflect on the role of honest lament in strengthening our dependence on God as our shield?

3. Psalm 2 exalts God’s anointed king against rebellious nations—how does this vision of divine authority invite us to wrestle with submitting to God’s rule in our lives, anticipating Christ’s ultimate reign?
