This week’s Come Follow Me for Teens Study & Teaching Guide finishes the book of Psalms with three powerful truths about seeing Jesus Christ in scripture, finding light when the road ahead is difficult, and learning to praise God through every season of life.
Psalms 110 and 118 contain prophecies and images that Jesus Christ and His Apostles later connected directly to the Savior.
“The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner.”
Youth explore how the Old Testament continually points toward Jesus Christ through prophecies, symbols, ordinances, stories, and deliverance—and why one of the most important questions we can ask while studying scripture is:
What does this teach me about Jesus Christ?
The more we learn to look for Him, the more we begin to recognize that He has been at the center of God’s plan all along.
Psalm 119 contains one of the most familiar images in scripture:
“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.”
This principle goes deeper into what that image means when life is genuinely difficult.
Sometimes we want God to give us a map—to explain where the road is going, why something is happening, and how everything will eventually work out. But a lamp may only illuminate enough of the path to take the next step.
Youth will explore how God’s word can provide direction, comfort, hope, reassurance, and truth during grief, illness, uncertainty, unanswered prayers, and other experiences that may not come with immediate explanations.
Sometimes faith does not mean seeing the whole road. It means trusting the light God has already given us enough to keep walking.
After 150 Psalms filled with fear, grief, repentance, enemies, unanswered questions, deliverance, gratitude, joy, worship, and hope, the final chapters repeatedly declare:
“Praise ye the Lord.”
Youth will consider why praise is deeper than simply thanking God when life goes the way we hoped.
Drawing on teachings from President Dieter F. Uchtdorf, this principle explores gratitude as an act of faith and testimony—learning to recognize who God is and what He has done even during difficult circumstances.
Over time, praise becomes less about what happened today and more about what we have learned about God through everything that has happened.
The final question of Psalms may not simply be:
What did I learn?
It may be:
What do I now have to praise God for?

This week’s guide helps youth learn to look for Jesus Christ throughout scripture, rely on God’s word when they cannot see the entire road ahead, and develop the kind of faith that can still praise God through every season of life.
