Anyone who has been brought up in a Christian tradition or even is familiar with our Western culture, either knows or, at least, has heard the 23rd Psalm. It's the Psalm that the padre is reading as the man is going to his execution in those old prison movies. It is the most well known of the Psalms and has been a source of comfort to many in peril over the centuries.
Many of the Psalms were written by David (some by others). They were sort of prayers to their god. They expressed the author's feelings and petitions to God in a wide variety of situations. They have also been read by many when in times of need. It is believed that if God answered David's prayers, then if we say the same prayer, we also might obtain God's grace.
The Psalms are exceptionally powerful and have secret meanings to all of them that we can all use in our lives. I will reveal more of this in the next few days via the thread.
The Psalms are an ideal prayer book, because there seems to be a Psalm for almost every intent or situation. When using the Psalms for a desired solution or result, it helps if one adds other devotional acts, eg. burning a candle and/or incense. While this is not always necessary, every act of devotion conveys one's sincerity.
Some Psalms do require special acts of devotion to accompany their reading. When reading the Psalm, do it in a reverent, meditative manner - a hurried reading may bring a haphazard result, or no result at all.
