The first two Psalms 1 & 2 serve as a type of prelude to the entire first book… even the entire book of Psalms itself.

Pslams 1 focus’ on the importance and power of the God’s word in a humble and obedient heart.

Psalm 2 is all about God’s sovereignty and specifically Jesus’ future Millennial reign.

Psalm 3 is about self-imposed tradgedy and the immutability of God’s calls and His faithfulness to those who submit to Him in trust.

Psalm 4 centers in on God’s faithfulnes to hear us when we pray. Our need to hold Him in dep reverence and the joy that comes from face-to-face encounters with God.

Finally center stage in Psalm 5 is the righteousness God imputes to His Own and how His ear is open to their cry. God will not hold the proud, the wicked or liars guiltless. It concludes with a call to rejoice in God’s delieverance of the godly.
