Advent Promises–Lesson 6

Psalm 97 – Lectio Divina

Read: The last Sunday of Advent celebrates the appearing of Christ to the Magi.  As you read Psalm 97, imagine the joy and wonder of those who experienced the birth of the King firsthand.

Highlight or write in your journal the words and/or phrases that catch your attention as you read this Psalm a second time.

Meditate:  Repeat the words and phrases that you noted several times, writing them on your heart.  Commit them to memory if possible.

Pray:  In your time of prayer, use the words of the Psalm as a prayer of thanksgiving and worship to God.
