Psalm 2 - The Song of the Gospel
Monday Apr 24, 2023
Monday Apr 24, 2023
The great doors of the Psalms begin in chapter 1 with "blessed is the man" and end in 2:12 with "blessed are all who take refuge in him." The 'him' is the Son, the King, the Anointed of God, the blessed man. We find our refuge, strength, and blessing by being found in the blessed man! Psalm 2 is the song of the gospel as nations rage, the Lord responds and the king reigns! How will you respond?

Psalm 1 - The Song of the Blessed Man

Thursday Apr 20, 2023
Blessed is the man... we often come to the Psalms looking at them like a mirror in which we see ourselves. This first of two great gates to the Psalms is a window for us to see the image of the blessed man, the one against the many. He does nothing wrong and everything he says comes from the Word of God. We don't find our blessing in how good of a person we are, we find our blessing by finding our refuge in the blessed man!

On the cross, Jesus quotes from Psalm 22. This rich Psalm is broken down into 3 stanzas that lead us on a journey from the cross to the resurrection. We see the tension, the trial, and finally the triumph in victory over the grave! A 1,000 years before Christ came, David through this Psalm prophesied about the death and resurrection of Jesus!

Psalm 16 - Through Ancient Gates
Saturday Apr 01, 2023
Saturday Apr 01, 2023
This introductory message demonstrates the composition and different perspectives of reading the Psalms. Much like a quilt, the book of Psalms contains the original songs of prayer and praise to the LORD written by men who lived through the struggles and triumphs of what it means to be a human. Those 150 psalms, were then stitched together in such a way as to reveal the Messiah, Jesus! Psalms is not primarily a book of humanity going to the divine but the divine coming down to humanity and Psalms is his story, the story of Jesus, the story of the Gospel! It is through the power of Jesus that we then pick up the Psalms and find them so meaningful to us!
