Today’s quote and prayer from
“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer”
Today’s Reading: Psalm 4

Listen to Psalm 4 as read by Jonathan Dent:

https://davidkitz.blog/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/psalm-4-remix1final.mp3

Heavenly Father,
today let the light
of your face shine on me.
Guide me in the way of truth.
I want to look to you
and walk in the way
you have prepared for me.
Amen.

The LORD wraps himself in light — photo by David Kitz

This is the verdict:
Light has come into the world,
but people loved darkness instead of light
because their deeds were evil.

Everyone who does evil hates the light,
and will not come into the light
for fear that their deeds will be exposed.

But whoever lives by the truth
comes into the light,
so that it may be seen plainly
that what they have done
has been done in the sight of God.

(John 3:19-21 NIV)*

New from David Kitz

James—the brother of Jesus—who was this man? What evidence do we have that this “brother of our Lord” even existed?

David Kitz digs deep into archeology, family dynamics, church history, and the biblical texts. What emerges from his research is a portrait of a decisive, pivotal leader who embodied the will and character of Jesus Christ.

But how did James—James the unbeliever—transform to become a leader who changed the course of world history? In these pages you will uncover the answer and rediscover for yourself the life-changing power of the gospel.

Today’s quote and prayer from
“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer”
by David Kitz

Reading: Psalm 134

Father God,
I thank you for loving me
and inviting me into your family.
Lord Jesus,
thank you for purchasing my redemption.
Holy Spirit,
I thank you for the confirmation
that I am your child.
Amen.

The true light that gives light
to everyone was coming into the world.
 
He was in the world,
and though the world was made through him,
the world did not recognize him.
He came to that which was his own,
but his own did not receive him.
 
Yet to all who did receive him,
to those who believed in his name,
he gave the right to become children of God—
 
children born not of natural descent,
nor of human decision
or a husband’s will,
but born of God.
(John 1:9-13 NIV)*

More than Magnificent

creation, Creator, earth, Genesis, God, Heavenly Father, sky, the heavens

Today’s quote and prayer from
“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer”
by David Kitz.

 Reading: Psalm 104:1-9

Heavenly Father,
you are very great!
I kneel before you,
my awesome God!
I praise you for your creation.
It is magnificent
because you are more than magnificent.
All praise belongs to you. 

Amen.

— — —

In the beginning
God created the heavens and the earth.

Now the earth was formless and empty,
darkness was over the surface of the deep,
and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.

And God said,
“Let there be light,”
and there was light.

God saw that the light was good,
and he separated the light from the darkness.

God called the light “day,”
and the darkness he called “night.”
And there was evening,
and there was morning—
the first day.

And God said,
“Let there be a vault between the waters
to separate water from water.”

So God made the vault
and separated the water under the vault
from the water above it.
And it was so.

God called the vault “sky.”
And there was evening,
and there was morning—
the second day.

(Genesis 1:1-8 NIV)*

Today’s quote and prayer from
“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer”
by David Kitz.

Reading: Psalm 91:1-8

LORD God,

you are my shelter in a stormy world.
I am so safe—
so very safe—
when I am with you.
I want to live each day
in the confidence you care for me
as a loving Father cares for His dear child.

Amen.

“Therefore I tell you,
do not worry about your life,
what you will eat or drink;
or about your body,
what you will wear.
Is not life more than food,
and the body more than clothes?

Look at the birds of the air;
they do not sow or reap
or store away in barns,
and yet your heavenly Father feeds them.
Are you not much more valuable than they?

Can any one of you
by worrying add a single hour to your life?
(Matthew 6:25-27)*

Today’s quote and prayer from
“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer”
by David Kitz.Psalm 19_12-14

Reading: Psalm 19:12-14

Heavenly Father,
please forgive my sins.
Often, I have lived according to my will,
not yours.
Forgive my selfish ways.
May these words of my mouth
and this meditation of my heart
be pleasing in your sight,
L
ORD, my Rock and my Redeemer. 

Amen.

“This, then, is how you should pray:
“‘Our Father in heaven,

your kingdom come,
your will be done,

Give us today our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
    as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
    but deliver us from the evil one.

For if you forgive other people when they sin against you,
your heavenly Father will also forgive you.

But if you do not forgive others their sins,
your Father will not forgive your sins.

Today’s quote and prayer from
“Psalms 365: Develop a Life of Worship and Prayer”
by David Kitz.Psalm 7_10a

Reading: Psalm 7:10-17

Heavenly Father,
today show me how I can build others up
instead of tearing them down.
I want to be more like you,
Lord Jesus.
You came to lift others.
In my interactions today,
help me do the same.

Amen.

— — —

Do not repay anyone evil for evil.
Be careful to do what is right
in the eyes of everyone.

If it is possible,
as far as it depends on you,
live at peace with everyone.
 
Do not take revenge,
my dear friends,
but leave room for God’s wrath,
for it is written:
“It is mine to avenge;
I will repay,”
says the Lord.
 
On the contrary:

“If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
    if he is thirsty,
give him something to drink.

In doing this,
you will heap burning coals on his head.”

 Do not be overcome by evil,
but overcome evil with good.
