Psalms Day 6 | Joe Consford

Intro Welcome to The Morning Meditation Podcast with Missionary Joe Consford. Each morning, we spend a few quiet moments in God’s Word to start the day focused on Him. Today, we’ll be reading Psalms 24 through 28. These chapters lift our hearts in worship and remind us that our God is strong, holy, and worthy to be praised. Tomorrow, we’ll move forward in our Bible reading with Revelation chapter 6. Scripture Reading – Psalm 24–28 (Selected Highlights, KJV) “The earth is the LORD’s, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.” — Psalm 24:1 “Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart…” — Psalm 24:3–4 “The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” — Psalm 27:1 “Unto thee will I cry, O LORD my rock; be not silent to me…” — Psalm 28:1 Story – The Castle on the Hill Years ago, a missionary in Scotland visited an ancient castle that stood high above the valley. From a distance, it looked dark and impenetrable. But when he climbed the steep hill and stepped through the open gate, he found a quiet beauty inside—stone arches, sunlight filtering through high windows, and a chapel that echoed with the sound of his footsteps. That castle reminded him of Psalm 24: “Lift up your heads, O ye gates… and the King of glory shall come in.” The walls seemed lifeless until someone entered. Likewise, our hearts can feel empty and cold until Christ enters in. When the King of glory comes in, everything changes—the cold walls of fear warm with faith, and the echo of loneliness turns into praise. Reflection – Three Thoughts for the Day

God owns it all. Psalm 24 begins by declaring that “The earth is the LORD’s.” Everything you see today belongs to Him. That truth removes fear and fuels faith.
Holiness invites His presence. Clean hands and a pure heart open the door for fellowship with God. The King of glory doesn’t enter through prideful gates.
The LORD is my light. Psalm 27 reminds us that no darkness can overcome those who walk with the Lord. His light doesn’t flicker; it conquers fear and confusion.

Closing Verse “Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.” — Psalm 24:9 Outro Thank you for joining us for The Morning Meditation Podcast.
