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 this message, we will see that the Old Testament law was full of shadows. Now that Christ has come, He is the substance of everything that the shadows pointed to. This is why we must come out of the shadows that we may fully embrace all that is available to us in Jesus.
In this Messianic Psalm, God demonstrates His reign over those who would oppose His rule. We learn the best thing to do is to submit to the Lords Messiah. Jesus Reigns!
In tonight‘s message, we will see David take us from prayer to praise. He begins the Psalm with complaints against his enemies. It turns into him crying out to the Lord, and it ends with his confident dependence on God‘s faithfulness. May we learn from the sweet Psalmist to turn our prayers into praise.
In today’s message, we go from looking at all that Christ has provided for us to looking at how we are to live in response. Three of the “Let Us” admonitions are in this section. I pray that we will be encouraged to draw near to God, hold fast to the truth, and consider one another for meaningful fellowship. May God‘s word transform us in a powerful way today.
In this Psalm, we will see the importance of connection with The Lord. The Psalmist cries out to the Lord, asking to be Heard and later he shares that he is confident in the Lord because he knows God hears him. What a privilege it is to be heard by God. May this Psalm bring us the same confidence and peace that it brought David.
