Psalm 66 - This Psalm continues the theme of praising God for His many blessings. A day is coming when all the earth will praise God.

Psalm 67 - God wants to show the nations of the earth His mercy and love. He desires praise from the people of the earth and He allows the earth to bring forth abundance to bless them.
Psalm 69 - God is aware of our sin no matter how hard we try to hide them. David did not want people to be ashamed because of his sins. He was a leader and he needed to lead in righteousness. David shows a proper lament over his own failures and seeks God's mercy. He calls on all to seek the Lord to magnify Him with thanksgiving.
Psalm 70 - David requests deliverance from God and he exalts in God's salvation! David sees how poor and needy he is and finds that God is ready to meet his need.
