Tonight we will have an introduction to the book of psalms and begin by going through this first amazing Psalm. We will see a sharp contrast between two paths, the blessed life and the cursed life We will be reminded that with God there's no middle ground. We can choose a Life in Him that is blessed and abundant or we can choose a life that ends in ruin. This Psalm gives us some wisdom and council on how to live a happy life and which path will lead us to it.
In tonight‘s message, we will look at one of the most powerful messianic Psalms in all the psalter. In this psalm, while David is crying out about some real distress he was going through, we will see many prophetic messages, some of which Jesus quoted directly from the cross. We will learn tonight about the power of the prophetic word and why Jesus wove these truths into the Old Testament.

In this Psalm David expresses his trust and hope in the Lord in the midst of his prayer request and praise reports. We see the depths of intimacy that David had in his relationship with God. I hope we will walk away from this message with deeper gratitude and greater trust in God.
In Tonight’s message David will show us that God is faithful in both our suffering and our restoration. We should remember His deliverance, remain humble in seasons of blessing, and praise Him continually.
