“Psalms of Ascent Series”, Quiet Time Coaching: Episode 144, Psalm 122v6
You have found a daily podcast based on the Psalms of Ascent (Psalms 120-134).
They are designed to help our hearts and minds being a healthy place while the Covid 19 virus does its worst.
“Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.” (Colossians 3:1–4 NIV11)
Each day we will meditate on a verse or two from these wonderful Psalms as we make our pilgrimage from confusion to hope, pain to peace, anxiety to joy.
“Pray” = Heb. “ask”. The informal word more than the formal word for prayer. In other words, it is an every day thing, not a special occasion thing. Something to be woven into our everyday lives. “It is the word Hebrews would use to ask for a second helping of bread if still hungry, or for directions if lost.” Peterson
