The Psalm Project #40

How can I repay the Lord
for all his goodness to me?
I will lift up the cup of salvation
and call upon the name of the Lord.
I will fulfill my vows to the Lord
in the presence of all his people (Psalm 116:12-14).

Dear God,
the Old Testament saints had no idea
how You would save us,
but here is mention of “the cup of salvation,”
which brings to my mind the Lord’s Supper.
Here, in the midst of man’s praise to You,
You have given them a glimpse of the Savior.

Lord, I thank You for the cup of salvation,
the blood of Your Son,
who makes me free to be Your child.
Thank You for Your brilliant Plan to save Your people. Amen.
