Happy Are Those Who Take Refuge In Him (Psalm 1-2)
“Look, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to each person according to what they have done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city. Outside are the dogs, those who practice magic arts, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood…” The…
Under the Shelter of God’s Wings (Psalm 91)
Listen, you heavens, and I will speak; hear, you earth, the words of my mouth.Let my teaching fall like rain and my words descend like dew,like showers on new grass, like abundant rain on tender plants.I will proclaim the name of the Lord. Oh, praise the greatness of our God!He is the Rock, his works are perfect, and all his ways are just.A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is he. Deuteronomy 32:1-4 Sermon Notes
Taste and See that the Lord is Good (Psalm 34)
Listen to my words, Lord, consider my lament.Hear my cry for help, my King and my God, for to you I pray. In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly.For you are not a God who is pleased with wickedness; with you, evil people are not welcome.The arrogant cannot stand in your presence.You hate all who do wrong; you destroy those who tell lies.The bloodthirsty and deceitful you, Lord, detest.But I, by your great love, can come into your house;in reverence I bow down toward your holy…
What Can the Righteous Do? (Psalm 11)
The Lord reigns forever; he has established his throne for judgment.He rules the world in righteousness and judges the peoples with equity.The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.Those who know your name trust in you, for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you. Psalm 9:7-10
Wait for the Lord (Psalm 27)
I lift up my eyes to the mountains— where does my help come from?My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip— he who watches over you will not slumber;indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord watches over you— the Lord is your shade at your right hand;the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord will keep you from all harm— he will watch over your life;the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and…
Standing On Level Ground (Psalm 26)
God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging. There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy place where the Most High dwells.God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day.Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall; he lifts his voice, the earth melts. The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. Psalm 46:1-7
Learn To Be Meek (Psalm 37)
Praise the Lord. Blessed are those who fear the Lord, who find great delight in his commands. Their children will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.Wealth and riches are in their houses, and their righteousness endures forever.Even in darkness light dawns for the upright, for those who are gracious and compassionate and righteous.Good will come to those who are generous and lend freely, who conduct their affairs with justice. Surely the righteous will never be shaken; they will be remembered forever.They will have no fear of bad news; their…
Our Safe Haven (Psalm 84)
See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. All who have this hope in him purify themselves, just as…
Happy Are Those Who Take Refuge in Him (Psalm 1&2)
We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature, but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. No, we declare God’s wisdom, a mystery that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time began. None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. However, as it is written: “What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard,and…
Resting in the Shadow of the Almighty (Psalm 91)
So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. “All who rage against you will surely be ashamed and disgraced;those who oppose you will be as nothing and perish.Though you search for your enemies, you will not find them.Those who wage war against you will be as nothing at all.For I am the Lord your God who takes hold of your right handand says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.” Isaiah…
