For the introduction to Summer in the Psalms and a detailed overview of the POST study method, refer to https://tpcc.org/daily-bible-reading/introduction-and-psalm-1.
Step 1: Pray and Prepare
Invite the Holy Spirit into your time, asking Him to teach you and speak to your heart. Turn over anything that may be distracting you.
Before starting the next step, take a few minutes to prepare. Read over the notes you've taken this week to refresh your memory on the Psalms.
Step 2: Observe
Read Psalm 32 multiple times for comprehension. Write down what you observe and any questions that come up as you read.
Step 3: Seek Out
Now read other translations, commentaries, or study Bible notes to check your work from Step 2, gain further insight into the passage, and answer any remaining questions you have.
Study Tip: This Psalm is called a maskil, a Hebrew word used to describe a specific type of Psalm. How could this word be translated? Write down the definition you find in a place you can refer to when you encounter another maskil Psalm.
Step 4: Take Action
· What does Psalm 32 teach you about God and following Him?
· What is God saying to you as you read His Word and listen to His voice?
· What do you need to do to obey?
