S – His salvation is very near those who fear him, so that glory may dwell in our land.
Faithful love and truth will join together; righteousness and peace will embrace.
Psalms 85:9–10 CSB
O – Commentary:
When God the Lord speaks, his faithful people listen. He promises them peace, meaning wholeness and well-being (see 37:11). They fear the Lord and know that he and his salvation are near to them. • The Lord does not tolerate foolish ways, such as those that resulted in the Exile.
85:10–13 In the glorious world of renewal and salvation, all the qualities of God’s care—love, truth, righteousness, and peace—come together and transform the created order into something new
New Living Translation Study Bible
A – Salvation yields amazing transformation. It is hard to imagine a life where faith, love, truth, righteousness and peace are not considerable components. A life without a relationship with Christ doesn’t see these come together in harmony. We have a lot to be grateful for.
R – Father, thank you for transforming our lives where all these are vital parts of each day. Please help us to deepen our relationship with you. We worship and surrender to you today.
