Through the Characteristics of God study, we identified about 70 characteristics of God. These characteristics are shown throughout the Bible, but one of the best places to learn about the characteristics of God is in the Psalms. Occasionally, we will add a psalm to our list to keep us continually centered on God.
Here is the Characteristics of God table for you to print or look at as you read the psalm.
The psalm for this week is Psalm 23.
A psalm of David.
1 The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
3 he refreshes my soul.
He guides me along the right paths
for his name’s sake.
4 Even though I walk
through the darkest valley,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.5 You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
6 Surely your goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
forever.
