Which Psalm has helped you most?

My favorite has always been 121, but 110 has helped me the most.

Psalm 46 for me. There was a stretch where everything felt like it was shifting under me and I kept reading 'Be still, and know that I am God' (Psalm 46:10) over and over. It didn't fix anything right away, it just made it easier to breathe and quit trying to hold it all together. Curious what 121 did for you that 110 didn't.

Psalm 110 made clear to me who Yahweh is. Psalm 121 assumes that I knew.

Greetings Matthias,

“Which Psalm has helped you most?”

I consider Psalm 8 as the most helpful. It uses the framework of the Genesis creation to speak of the New Creation in and through Jesus. I also believe that it was written by David after the slaying of Goliath. Psalm 8 and Psalm 110 are extensively quoted in the NT, a ready indication of their importance.

Kind regards
Trevor
