01:05 I love Trayveon family. I'm Joe Moore County. We welcome you to
01:09 a brand new quarter of 3ABN Sabha school panel. That's
01:13 right. We're studying the book of sums up this quarter.
01:16 I'm excited. It's one of my favorite studies. Lesson number
01:19 one is how to read the phones before I introduce your family
01:24 here at the table today as we explore the word of God.
01:27 I want to tell you we're doing something brand new. We are

02:15 You're here.
02:16 >> It's a blessing to be here with not hear the last quarter.
02:19 And this Wednesday portion is what I have. It's inspired
02:23 prayers.
02:24 >> And last but not least bookended by my 5th year in
02:27 Jesus, Shelley planned. So glad you're here says, oh, it's so
02:30 exciting to be here Thursday. So lesson is the world of the
02:35 psalms. And before we go any further, we want to go to the
02:38 Lord in prayer. Ryan, would you pay for?
02:40 >> So then let's pray.
02:42 Her father in heaven, Lord, as we know, dive into a new
02:46 adventure, a study through the book of Psalms Lord. We Ask
02:48 that your leadership be with us. Your spirit be poured out
02:51 upon us and that all the work words that we say, everything
02:55 that's communicated here that goes out, Lord will bless us
02:58 and bless so many other people that each and every one of us
03:01 will be drawn to Jesus Christ from this incredible study.
03:04 So we give this time to you and we ask you, your will be done.
03:07 And Jesus. Holy name, Amen.
03:09 >> The Psalms explores the gamut of human emotion,
03:14 especially as it relates to God. The sums address, joy and
03:19 sadness, fear and frustration, repentance and forgiveness,
03:25 peace and anxiety, depression and praise. Everything comes
03:31 back to praise. We see that over and over again. Throughout
03:36 the book of Psalms. It was the him No. You could say for
03:39 ancient, Israel's worship can be spoken or sung in private or
03:46 in corporate worship. In fact, as we journey through the study
03:49 were discovered that there's musical and notations
03:52 throughout the some suggest they were mostly written to be
03:55 some in the context of worship. What I love about the Psalms
04:00 that explores the attributes of our God. He is King and judge.
04:06 He's creator and sustainer. He's read Emer and savior.
04:10 He's our healer in our ref. Huge and our shepherd. He has
04:14 great Tim powerful, an eternal and holy.
04:18 He is on the president everywhere at once. He is
04:21 omnipotent. All powerful. He is righteous and Justin
04:26 Faithful unforgiving. He is patient and merciful and
04:31 compassionate and loving our God is good, though. Here's a
04:37 quote from the lesson. It says the sums have served as the
04:40 prayer book and him book to Generations of Believers.
04:47 It's a collection of 150 songs. It's interesting both the
04:51 Hebrew and the SEP 2 agent contain 150 films, but they
04:55 know over them slightly different lane and most English
04:59 translations will follow the Hebrew numbering of the songs.
05:04 There's 2 ways that you can divide the Psalms as we study
05:07 throughout this quarter. The author of The Last Let me
05:10 mention her name. I'm not going to pronounce it right. Drago
05:13 Slava some trick. She's a PhD and Old Testament. She's the
05:17 managing editor of the Encyclopedia of 7th Day
05:20 Adventists at the General Conference. And she did a great
05:23 job with this lesson. She arranges our lessons thematic,
05:28 Ali. And we'll be looking at that. All the different types
05:31 of songs we have individual and corporate laments or prayers or
05:35 cries for help. There's individual and corporate
05:39 Thanksgiving. The Thanksgiving or praise songs
05:43 we look at Himss honoring God is our creator hymns honoring
05:47 God is our King. We look at songs of trust and songs of
05:51 science. Royal sums in Pilgrim sums and Wisdom sums and Torah
05:57 psalms.
05:58 >> Penitential songs which would be seeking forgiveness of
06:02 God. It runs the home can and we're going to explore and
06:06 study that this quarter. Another way to divide the
06:09 Psalms the author. The quarterly does not do it,
06:12 but you can divide them into 5 votes which mirror the Torah or
06:16 the first 5 books of the Old Testament,
06:20 for instance, Psalms one to 41 with parallel with Genesis
06:25 sums. 42 to 72 with parallel with Exodus and you can go down
06:31 and see book 3 of the Psalms would parallel with Leviticus
06:34 book for with numbers and book 5 with Deuteronomy to me.
06:38 It's fascinating when we study there are so many ways. Thank
06:42 you can study the word of God that you can open up and see
06:45 that this week. We look at how to read the songs and let's
06:48 read or memory text. We are in Luke. 24 versus 44 45. This is
06:54 of course Jesus speaking to the disciples
06:57 and the upper room after the walk to him a U.S. with the
07:00 disciples, then E appears in the upper room and he says
07:03 these words loop. 24 44 45 and he said to them, these are the
07:07 words I spoke to you while I was still with you that all
07:11 things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of
07:13 Moses and the prophets and the psalms concerning me. And he
07:19 opened the understanding that they might comprehend the
07:22 scriptures. Now there are 3 main sections of the Hebrew
07:25 scriptures. We have the law, the profits and the writings
07:29 and of the writings, the most important or talked about are
07:33 pivotal work would be the psalms. So you can see Jesus
07:36 references that here. He says the law, the profits and the
07:40 songs
07:41 this week, we just look at what's the inspiration of the
07:45 Psalms and what's the purpose of the psalms in worship?
07:48 Who are the authors of the songs and what are the types of
07:51 songs, the poetry of the Somme, the emotion of the sums,
07:56 the prayers of the some of the most importantly, the God
07:59 centered nearness of the songs on Sunday. And my remaining
08:04 time, we're going to look at the sums, an ancient Israel's
08:08 war shop. And I want to submit few 7 purposes if we get
08:12 through them. All right. In front of the sums in worship
08:15 for number one or going to first chronicles term of Meta
08:19 first chronicles chapter 16. We're going to verse 7.
08:24 It starts out on that day. What day what is happening
08:27 here? The Ark has just been brought to Jerusalem and placed
08:33 in the midst of the tabernacle. On that day, David first
08:37 delivered this psalm into the hand of a staff and his
08:41 brethren to thank the Lord we see here. David is the author
08:46 of the Somme and actually they quote later from someone 0,
08:48 5, and you can read it in some. It's cold in the first
08:51 chronicle 16, but it's also some 105,
08:54 David deliver the Somme into the hand of a staff who is a
08:57 staff. He's one of the 3 leaders of the temple singers.
09:00 He's a singer in Israel. Ryan is right that we see the
09:03 songs connected with worship. We see music connected with
09:07 worship and music connected with the songs. If you jump
09:11 down diverse. 37 after this misquoted, it says he that
09:14 means David
09:16 last staff and his brothers there before the Ark of the
09:19 Covenant of the Lord to minister before the Ark
09:21 regularly as every day's work required. So what does that
09:26 mean? They were charged with music in the Temple worship and
09:31 it was Ed Daley. Experience takeaway. Number one. Music is
09:37 an integral part of worship. Yes. Make the sums up part of
09:43 your daily worship and facts. Someone 5, which is the sum
09:47 David deliver there in first Chronicle 16, some 1, 0,
09:50 5, 2, says saying to him, same praises to him. Talk of all his
09:56 wondrous works. Music is an integral part of worship.
10:00 Now for number 2, we go to Nehemiah 12 verse 8.
10:04 It says moreover, the leave EITs were and list their names.
10:08 I'm not going to read because I can't pronounce them. But what
10:11 did the Levi's do? They lead the Thanksgiving saw he and his
10:17 brother. Now, it's interesting to me, we think of the
10:19 restoration of Jerusalem. The rebuilding of the temple
10:23 Nehemiah rebuilt the walls, but they also release toward were
10:28 shot when we see the restoration of worship takeaway
10:32 number 2, Thanksgiving is an integral part of worship
10:37 because what did the Levi its lead? They lead them in
10:40 Thanksgiving. Psalms as heart of their worship.
10:46 Make thankfulness part of your worship. And if you're not sure
10:50 what you can even be thankful for, you can pray the sums back
10:54 to God. You can find one of those Thanksgiving songs and
10:58 you can pry it saying it back to God. Number 3 for this.
11:03 We're going to some 18 verse one, some 18 1. I will love
11:07 you. Oh, Lord, my strength. We see David's the author of
11:12 this song. It's the same. Saw mentioned in seconds a
11:15 mule. 22 and it talks about how David saying this. Someone got
11:19 delivered him from the hand of his enemies. And from Saul
11:24 takeaway, number 3, acknowledging God is our
11:27 sovereign and expressing love to him. It's an integral part
11:31 of worship. What a David say. I will love you o lord
11:36 sometimes in our worship or afraid to make emotion part of
11:40 worship. But we can acknowledge God is supreme and we can
11:44 express love to him and that is part of worship.
11:49 Number 4 were in some 30 versus one. How will extol you o Lord
11:55 for you have lifted me up. Have not let my phone's reign
11:58 over me. We see a similar concept in Psalm one. 45 verses
12:03 one to 3 outlook stole you. Oh, Lord, my God and Cain.
12:07 I will bless your name for ever and ever every day. I will
12:12 bless you and I will praise your name for ever and ever
12:15 take away. Number 4 praise is an integral part of worship.
12:21 You might say wait a minute to lead. Number 2 with
12:23 Thanksgiving is a part of worship. I believe the
12:26 Thanksgiving is thanking God for what he's done for us.
12:30 Praise is expressed scene who he is it safe to say inking
12:36 him. You could say that but for Hoey is not for what he's done
12:39 for us but for who he is and his greatness and his majesty
12:43 and his holiness and his goodness and his love moving
12:46 quickly. The next one. Number 5, some 86 verse one bow down
12:52 your hero. Lord, hear me for I am poor and needy. Takeaway
12:58 number 5, acknowledgement of our need is an integral part of
13:03 worship. That probably should have been number one because
13:06 when we come into God's presence, the first thing is to
13:09 recognize who we are and who God is and that we are Corin
13:14 sinful and needy and we need him. Number 6 is colossians 3
13:19 verse 16. Let the word of Christ welling you richly and
13:23 all wisdom teaching at admonishing one another and
13:26 sums and hymns and spiritual songs singing with Grace in
13:30 your hearts to the Lord. Take Away. 6 music is connected
13:34 with the word in worship. Did you notice that in that
13:38 scripture? The word of God is connected with music. So not
13:42 just his music, part of worship, but music in scripture
13:46 saying scripture songs back to God as part of your worship.
13:52 In number 7, prayer is connected with the sums in
13:58 worship. Spend time praying the sums back to God and it would
14:04 change and revolutionize your worship.
14:07 >> And many men. Thank you, Jill. Great opener. My name is
14:11 Ryan Day. I have Monday's lesson entitled Meet the
14:14 Psalmist and we're going kind of continue on the theme a
14:17 little bit of the same theme that Joe brought out. We're
14:20 going to go a little deeper into some other songs and look
14:24 at just the different elements of what we see and how we see
14:28 this on this opening up their hearts and sharing with us what
14:31 they're going through at that particular time. I want to
14:34 start. But with the lesson begins with its as King David,
14:36 whose name appears and the titles of most Psalms was
14:39 active in organizing the liturgy of Israel's worship.
14:43 He is called the sweets on this of Israel there in seconds,
14:46 Samuel Chapter 23 and verse one, the New Testament attest
14:50 to the Vidic authorship of various songs. And of course,
14:54 the Scripture brings out a Matthew. 22 in acts, Chapter 2
14:57 chapter? 34 35 acts for Romans for 6. We find a reference to
15:03 this. This truth. Numerous songs are composed by the
15:06 temple musicians as Joe brought out, who are also Levis,
15:10 for example, some 50 and of course, the lesson to show her
15:14 some 73 to 83 by a said, we do a little bit deeper research.
15:18 You'll find that many of these songs were actually written by
15:20 David. But for the purpose of putting them to music, which of
15:24 course the Bible does tested. It says a sum of a set many
15:27 times. It was written by David for a set to set to music.
15:31 For instance, 73 would be a great example. But then you go
15:34 and read some 42 some. 44 to 47, some 49 for some 84,
15:40 85 and some 88 by the sons of Cora as the listen brings out
15:44 here some 88 by Hayman or human. Have you say that the
15:49 eggs, right?
15:50 And some 89 by Ethan, the as right and of course, beyond
15:53 them. Solomon, of course, is responsible for writing some
15:56 72, someone, 27 and of course, Moses is a traditionally
16:00 attested to have written some chapter 90 as well, are somber,
16:04 some 90 as well. And so what we're going to do is when to
16:07 jump into some of the songs were going to the sums. We're
16:09 going to see just what the psalms reveal about the
16:12 experiences of these authors. And I love the book of Psalms.
16:16 I've read the book of Psalms over and over and over
16:18 throughout my life because it just brings it really shows you
16:21 that these were real men, the storeroom in going through real
16:25 things, point out their heart to God in ways that we can
16:28 relate to. And that's the wonderful thing about it.
16:30 For instance, you have some independents there in some.
16:33 25 verses one through 5. Some 25 verses one to 5.
16:36 Notice what it says here. This is to you, Lord. I lift up
16:39 my soul. Oh, my God. I trust in you.
16:43 >> Let me not be ashamed. Let not Mike enemies triumph
16:47 over me. You'll see this come up quite a bit. David,
16:50 especially writing in saying, Lord, Help Me overcome my
16:53 enemies. This week, David was a man of war. David was a a man
16:57 of God. He was a man after God's own heart in the enemy
17:00 through everything he could again see, you'll see this team
17:02 often rise up over and over a verse 3 of some. 25 says,
17:06 indeed, let no one who waits on you be ashamed. Let those be
17:11 ashamed. Who deal treacherously without calls. Show me your
17:14 ways or teach me your paths. Lead me in your truth and teach
17:19 me for you are the God of my salvation on you. I wait all
17:24 the days. You can see David's dependents here. Just Lord
17:27 Lord, I'm depending on you. I'm waiting on you o Lord.
17:30 >> Of course, there are other songs will see deep soul
17:33 searching and spiritual examination that's brought
17:35 about through the sums confession and repentance and
17:38 of course, sums of thanks and praise, for instance, in some
17:41 75 and verse one here and also some 77 verse one. It says we
17:46 think we give thanks to God we give. Thanks for your wondrous
17:50 works to clear that your name is near that. Some 75 in verse
17:53 one. And of course, also some 71. 77. 0st 1, I cried out to
17:58 God with my voice to God with my voice he gave and gave it to
18:02 me. So again, understanding the got here is a Scotts listening
18:06 to us and they understood this. There are songs of lamenting
18:10 that we see some sun lamenting. Of course, there's many of
18:13 these. But the example given here in the in the in the study
18:16 of some 88 verses one through 3, some in the 8 verses one
18:20 through 3 says, Oh, lord, because of my salvation,
18:23 I have cried out. I have cried out day and night before you
18:27 let my prayer come before you in kind your ear to my cry for
18:31 my soul is full of troubles. And my life draws near to the
18:36 grave. And so we can relate to this endeavor. Some of those
18:40 times we just like Lord, please hear my prayer. I need you to
18:43 come through like you've never come through before. We since
18:46 the humanity of these authors, as they often are crying out in
18:50 the minting, of course, is Joe brought out. There are songs
18:53 that were meant for to be saying as songs or of course,
18:56 with singing, for instance, 89 in verse one makes it clear I
18:59 will scene of the mercies of the Lord forever with my mouth.
19:03 I will make known your faithfulness to all
19:06 generations. And so we see much in much of this, of course,
19:09 songs of love songs of longing. And of course, the one that
19:12 when it comes to my mind that I love even singing often this
19:15 song is based on it's the song as the Deer, which is based on
19:18 some chapter, 42 in verse one. And I love the words to it.
19:22 >> As the 2, you had to follow a lot of Soma so long with a to
19:29 Z, Whew.
19:32 >> Mama Hart says I and I alone to lose should see. I just love
19:38 that. Even though it's based off of that one takes there in
19:41 some 42 and verse one. It just really shows the authors along
19:46 in desire. Lord, I need you. I depend on you. I long and
19:50 then you're in for you each and every day. Some 84 versus one.
19:54 And 2, you get that same tone this deep along this yearning
19:57 for the Lord. How lovely is short tabernacle? The summit's
20:01 writes, Oh, Lord of hosts my Soul Longs. Yes. Even faints
20:07 for the courts of the Lord. My heart and my flesh. Cry out
20:10 for the living. God. Have you ever experience that? I know I
20:14 find that often happening. The older I get the more
20:17 experienced, I get the more stuff you go through. You just
20:21 learn just how if you really are about life, you learn the
20:24 more you learn, the more you realize just how much little
20:27 you really know and how dependent and long you are for
20:31 the Lord to show up to lead and to guide you because ultimately
20:35 I don't trust myself, right? The more you grow in God,
20:37 you realize I don't trust me, Lord, I trust you take the will
20:40 of my life. You see these messages. You see this, this
20:43 powerful just she's just foreshadowing and beautiful.
20:49 Amazing message just burst forth from this on this as Uber
20:54 as you go through in scale over the sums, of course, it also
20:58 shows us on this, our but a reflection of the example of
21:02 the many people in the Bible that,
21:05 you know, went through some messed up situations and were
21:07 perfect ride. These were men who were striving for that
21:10 perfection in Christ that we're striving for to grow in
21:13 character and and and and and to be more like Jesus. But you
21:18 have a worse time and through some messed up stuff. And I
21:20 just made a note some notes here. I'm probably not going to
21:23 read all of these, but it's a reflection of the Somme us or
21:26 reflection of the other Bible riders and characters that we
21:28 find throughout the Bible. For instance, Abraham being too
21:31 old, Elijah was fearful and suicidal. Joseph was air going
21:34 abused job, went bankrupt. Moses was a murder and had a
21:38 speech problem. Gideon was afraid. Sampson was a
21:41 womanizer, a I was a prostitute.
21:43 >> You go through all these different people. But you see
21:45 that the Somme us were also men that needed the Lord. They also
21:49 had swept through some missteps situations and they certainly
21:53 need the Lord to come through for them as well.
21:55 >> Even in their weaknesses and in their trials and in their
21:58 tribulations. And so I just love that. And of course,
22:02 I wanted to in this particular lesson on one of my favorite
22:05 sums because the mini some this help remind us of our
22:09 brokenness in constant need to the safe. You're that's
22:11 ultimately what I get from this so much more than just that one
22:15 sentence that I just said. But when I scale through and I
22:17 read and survey the sums, it helps me to be reminded of my
22:21 constant need. And you know what I'm broke and I need to
22:24 fix. I need Christ to be that Potter has on the clay too many
22:28 to break me to mold me, to shape me into the character and
22:32 into the man he wants me to be. And I love some 23 and I'm sure
22:35 we're going to spend some time in that some at some point in
22:38 the future. But I just love the words here. The Lord is my
22:42 shepherd. David pouring his heart out. His need his
22:44 dependence upon God. I shall not want. He makes me lie down
22:49 in green pastures. He leads me beside the still waters.
22:52 He restoreth my soul. He leads me in the paths of
22:57 righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though, I walk
23:01 through the valley of the shadow of death. I love that.
23:04 He says I will fear no evil like this. God has not given us
23:07 the spirit of fear. He says for you are with me, your rod and
23:11 your staff. They comfort me. You prepare a table before me
23:15 in the presence of my enemies. You you anoint my head with
23:20 oil. My cup runs over. God brings the abundance of
23:25 blessings even though we don't deserve it. Surely goodness and
23:28 mercy shall follow me all the days of my life. And I will do
23:33 well in the house of the Lord and I love how it is for ever
23:37 thus on. This reminds us each and every one of us each and
23:40 every one of them reminds us that quitting is not an option,
23:43 maybe even fold, even though these brothers went through
23:46 stuff, even though there were moments when it seems like they
23:49 were at their wits end. And you can just since the lament,
23:52 you could just since the pain and the sorrow that they're
23:54 dealing for, even in times when yes, they were literally
23:58 walking through the valley of the shadow of death. They
24:01 remind us I will through it all. Trust in you, Lord.
24:05 I will through at all do well in the house of the Lord,
24:08 not just today and quit tomorrow, not for a week and
24:11 then quit the next week, not for a few years and then give
24:13 it all up a few years down the road. But I will dwell in the
24:16 House of the Lord forever because quitting is not an
24:20 option. And so the song this remind us these beautiful,
24:23 beautiful songs, remind us that putting our hand in the hand of
24:25 the lord and allowing him to lead and still our lives
24:28 through whatever trials, difficulties tribulations
24:31 through the good and through the bad we trust in the Lord
24:34 because he knows what's best.
24:36 >> For us and I think you so much, Ryan, one incredible
24:39 study. How encouraging the study is going to be great.
24:43 We're going to take a quick break. We'll be right.

25:18 [MUSIC]
25:21 >> Welcome back to our study on how to read the sums. We're
25:23 going to pass it over to Tuesday in Pastor James
25:26 Rafferty.
25:27 >> Thank you, Joe. We are in Tuesday's lesson, which is
25:29 entitle a song for every season on Pastor James Rafferty.
25:33 And as you mentioned, the songs are not only the hymnal of the
25:37 Old Testament, but Christian believes in Pakistan use it as
25:40 such today. They will sing through the Psalms. In fact,
25:42 when I was over, they give me some years ago they would spend
25:45 2 or 3 hours singing the songs and then they give you about
25:48 maybe 20 minutes for us and self. The songs are powerful
25:51 because they really do is, as Ryan was saying, they really do
25:54 encourage us to remain faithful to God, who is the one who is
25:59 faithful to us,
26:01 the quarterly the tech springs out here. And that's how the
26:03 school less than the SA must make the believing community
26:06 aware of the full range of human experience. They
26:09 demonstrate the believes can worship God in every season in
26:13 life. And then we see the following. Number one, hymns
26:17 that magnify God for his majesty and power in creation.
26:21 His kingly rule, his judgment. His faithfulness, for example,
26:25 saw 24 verses one through 6. The Earth is the lord's and the
26:29 fullness. They're off the world. And they that dwell
26:33 therein for is founded upon the seas, established upon the
26:36 floods who shall ascending to the hill of Lord who she'll
26:38 stand in his holy place. He did has clean hands and a
26:41 pure heart who has not lifted up the soul and a vanity or
26:45 sworn deceitfully. He should receive the blessing from the
26:48 Lord and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
26:52 This is the generation of them that seek him that seek thy
26:55 face shakeup, sila. We'll talk about seal here in just a
26:59 second. Number 2, Thanksgiving Psalms. The Psalms expressed
27:03 profound gratitude for God's abundant last scenes.
27:07 Read Psalm 107, for example. Begin with the first want to
27:10 give. Thanks unto the Lord for he is good for his mercy
27:13 endures forever. Let the redeem that the Lord say so someone 7
27:17 0st 2, he has redeemed from the hand of the enemy, however,
27:20 say that men would praise the Lord for his goodness for his
27:24 wonderful works to the children of men. 40 satisfies the
27:27 longing. So verse 9 in fills the hungry. So with goodness,
27:31 or how about verse? 15 old men would praise the Lord for his
27:34 goodness. And for his wonderful works, that children meant for
27:37 his broken the gates of brass and he's cut the bars of iron
27:40 in sunder or how about verse. 21, all that men would praise
27:44 the Lord for his goodness. And for his wonderful works to
27:46 the children of men to see some repetition here
27:50 and let them sacrifice the sacrifices a Thanksgiving and
27:53 declare his works with rejoicing. Thanksgiving to God
27:57 is a sacrifice that he delights to hear or how about first.
28:00 31, that men would praise the Lord for his goodness in for
28:03 his wonderful works that children men let them exalt
28:05 him. Also in the congregation of the people and praise him in
28:10 the assembly of the Elders, all about number 3 laments or
28:15 heartfelt Christ to God for Deliverance in trouble. This is
28:19 another characteristic of the Psalm Psalm 3, 3, 4, But thou
28:24 or Lord, oh, lord artists, she'll for me. My glory and the
28:27 lift off of my head. I cried unto The Lord is My Voice.
28:30 And you heard me out of his Holy Hill Sila or there's
28:35 wisdom songs, songs that provide practical guidelines
28:38 for righteous living like someone versus one in 2.
28:42 Blessed is the man
28:44 that walk is not in the council. The ungodly north
28:47 stands in the way of sinners nor sits in the seat of the
28:49 scornful, but his delight. He's in the law of the Lord.
28:53 And in this law, does he meditate day and night or some
28:57 30 to one of my favorite promises verse 8? I will
29:00 instruct the and teach the in the way that thou shall go.
29:03 I will guide the with mine. I'd be not as a horse. There is
29:06 a view that has no understanding whose mouth as he
29:08 held with a bit and bridal unless they come Iran to the or
29:12 some 33 verse 10. The Lord brings the council of the heave
29:17 into not he makes the devices of the people of non if at and
29:22 then there's Royal Psalms Royal Psalms that point to Christ who
29:26 is sovereign and deliver of God's people sums that we like
29:30 someone 16 verses one through 6. I love the Lord because he
29:33 has heard my voice and my supplications because he's
29:36 inclined. As you wrote to me, therefore, I will call upon him
29:39 as long as I live the SARS of death. Come past me, the pains
29:43 of h*** get hold of me. I found trouble and sorrow. Then I
29:47 called upon the name of the Lord. Oh, Lord, I beseech Thee
29:50 deliver my Soul. Gracious is the Lord and right as she our
29:55 God is merciful.
29:57 The Lord Preserves the Simple. I was brought low and he helped
30:00 me more. There's historical songs. Songs that recall Israel
30:04 Israel's past and and highlight faithfulness. It and Israel's
30:08 unfaithfulness to teach coming generations not repeat the
30:11 mistakes of their ancestors, but to put their trust in God
30:14 and to remain faithful to our covenant. God like Psalms 105,
30:18 and 106. Remember, his marvelous works works that he's
30:22 done. His wonders and the judgments of his mouth. You see
30:25 that reminisce service, the children of Jacob and his chose
30:28 my can read all of those songs. But we are encouraged to read
30:32 some 1, 0, 5, 1, 0, 6, once every week. Just remember God's
30:37 leading in past history of God's people because as we
30:41 remember how God has led in the past, we will have nothing to
30:44 fear for the future. And then this is just an additional one
30:47 by through. And there's angry songs this on the show us how
30:51 to process or anger with God, right? If you ever read the
30:55 psalms and wondered, why is David so angry some of the
30:57 time, right? Well, he's processing his process. The
30:59 Menninger, it's it's good to processor and with God, we
31:03 learn how to process or anger with got we learn how to
31:05 process anger responsibly so that hopefully won't process
31:09 anger irresponsibly some. 54 help me save me o God by thy
31:14 name. Judge me by my strength. That's the first thing that
31:17 David does in these angry songs as he asked God to help him and
31:21 he says hear my prayer verse 2, 0, God give you the words of my
31:25 mouth and then explains the situation for strange is
31:27 versed. 3 have risen up against me and oppressive sic my soul.
31:30 They have not said God before them and the whole God verse 4
31:35 God as my help for the Lord is with me with them that I hold
31:38 my saw and then he lets go. He lets it out. He let his
31:41 anger out first 5, he sure would even want to Miami's cut
31:45 them off a night truth, just just let him have it. Of
31:47 course, David actually doesn't do that specifically with saw
31:51 because he lets his anchor out to God and God
31:54 fills the void of that anger being released, that he fills
31:58 the void with his spirit with the holy spirit. That's what
32:00 God wants to do for each one of us. And when he does that,
32:02 then David in Psalm 54 for 6,
32:06 we praise God. I will freely sacrifice into the I will
32:08 praise thy name o Lord for it is good. David was just angry
32:12 and now he's praising God because let all of the anger
32:14 out and got us fill the void with this spirit Ver 7 for us
32:18 to live in the out of all my trouble. My 9, my eye has seen
32:22 his deliverance upon my enemies. And of course, this is
32:24 a face statement that David makes. Now the push of the
32:27 Psalms demonstrates distinctive power to capture the attentions
32:31 of the readers. And some of these predict devices are kind
32:34 of lost in translation, the Corley says, but we can still
32:37 see in our native language and appreciate many of them.
32:41 For example,
32:42 parallelism involves the combining of symmetrically
32:45 constructed words or phrases or thoughts. Parallelism helps in
32:49 understanding the meaning of the corresponding parts,
32:51 for instance, bless the Lord O My soul and all that is within
32:56 the bless this holy name in this perilous, my soul and all
33:00 that in with in mean, namely months. Whole Bean are the same
33:04 thing or against someone. 47 verse 11. The Lord takes
33:07 pleasure in them that fear him, comma, those that hoping his
33:11 mercy. So those that fear him is parallel to those that her
33:15 hoping his mercy, if you got is to hope in his mercy imagery,
33:19 for example, the use of figurative language to strongly
33:23 appeal to the readers physical senses. God is our refuge and
33:27 strength. And he's depicted as the shadow of wings. He's a
33:32 he's got his shadow of wings over a psalm 91. He did was in
33:36 a secret place of the most high, shall abide under the
33:37 shadow of the almighty. I would say of the Lord. He is my
33:40 refuge and my fortress or Maris which expresses the tally of a
33:45 pair of contrast. In part, I cried unto the Lord Day and
33:49 night. Those a contrast in parts day and night. But that's
33:52 the totality of the thought cried as Lloyd Day and night.
33:55 And then we have workplace which employed the sound of
33:58 words to make up on our highlight a special spiritual
34:01 message like in some 96 4, 5, The Hebrew word. Hello. He gods
34:05 and and he he idols creates a wordplay to convey the message
34:09 that the gods of the nation's only appeared to be low.
34:11 He gods but Mill your hello. He he idols and then this
34:16 contrasts teen opposite thoughts in the second line.
34:19 For example, someone for 6, the Lord knows the way of the
34:22 righteous, but the way the ungodly shall perish, you've
34:25 got the righteous and the ungodly contrast it. And then
34:28 this synthetic Portree thought complete in the second line.
34:31 The ungodly are not so but are like the chaff, which is driven
34:35 away by the wind. So you've got the second thought repeated to
34:39 to the the the thought completed in the second line.
34:44 And finally have the word see Lassila denotes a brief
34:48 interlude, either a call for a pause or reflection was
34:53 etcetera.
34:55 Either cause report pause or for selection on the messenger
34:58 or petit to a section of the saw a change maybe of musical
35:02 accompaniment say like, think about this and so many times
35:06 you go through the song's. David makes a point. The
35:08 profound point may be right in the middle of the Somme and
35:10 he's got us a lot. And that's calling us to just think about
35:14 applause upon that. And we used that same phrase many times,
35:18 not say a lot, but the same idea many times as we talk.
35:21 Think about that for a second. You know. Think about that,
35:24 right? And so the Psalms complete this dynamic,
35:29 powerful, beautiful
35:30 communication that got us encourage us to enter into when
35:34 we communicate with each other when we communicate with God
35:37 and men do. And thank you, Pastor James inspiring praise
35:41 the Lord.
35:42 Well, we are now on Wednesdays portion and my name is John.
35:45 Didn't see the title for Wednesday is inspired prayers.
35:49 As you read the songs, he will notice that there are many
35:52 prayers.
35:53 >> And you see that David is just pouring out his heart to
35:57 God talking to God, let him know what's inside his heart.
36:02 And the lesson points out, too.
36:04 See a few of these. Let's go to second Samuel Chapter. 23 verse
36:09 one 2
36:11 and we have there now. These are the last words of David.
36:16 The U.S. says David, the son of Jesse, the says the man raised
36:20 up on high the anointed about God of Jacob and the sweet
36:26 psalmist of Israel.
36:28 The spirit of the Lord spoke by me and his word was on my
36:34 tongue. So you see here that even
36:38 in the act of prayer, the Holy Spirit gets involved. And the
36:44 expressions that you see in the songs that our prayers are also
36:48 directed by the Holy Spirit. You know, when you approach
36:51 God, you're coming to him and you have a situation, you have
36:54 something going on. The Holy Spirit takes over even in your
36:59 prayer expression to God. And this is a marvelous thing
37:03 to understand. I'm going to
37:06 mentioned a few places where you see that the Holy Spirit is
37:12 involved here in the book of Acts. You see Peter come from
37:16 that the Holy Spirit spoke to David Psalms one 15 I saw I act
37:21 chapter one verse 15. And in those days, Peter stood up in
37:25 the midst of the disciples and said the number of names
37:28 together. We're about 120. He says men and brother in this
37:32 scripture must needs have been fulfilled, which the holy goals
37:37 by the month of David Spake before concerning Judas,
37:41 which was guide to them. That to Jesus acts one 20 where
37:45 it is written in the book of Psalms, let his habitation be
37:48 desolate and let no man dwell therein and his bishopric let
37:52 another take. So you see
37:54 Peter confirming that the Holy Spirit's folk by his servant.
37:58 David, now want to take you to a Romans chapter 8 and that
38:03 lesson point outburst. 26 27. But I want to start in verse.
38:06 21 2
38:08 present the contacts and how this is presented here in a way
38:13 that could lead to to understand how the holy spirit
38:16 gets involved
38:18 verse. 21 Roman say 21, because the creation itself also will
38:23 be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious
38:27 liberty of the children of God.
38:30 For we know that the whole creation notice groans and
38:33 labor's would birth pangs together until now we are
38:38 supposed to notice and this is being brought up by Paul.
38:41 Now it says verse. 22, not only that, but we also who have the
38:47 first-fruits all disparate. Even we ourselves groan within
38:51 ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the reduction of
38:55 our body. But we were say that in this hope, but hope that is
38:59 seen is not hope for. Why does one still hope for what he
39:02 sees?
39:03 But if we hope
39:05 for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with
39:09 perseverance.
39:10 Now, notice first. 26 likewise, the spirit that is the Holy
39:15 Spirit also helps our weaknesses for we do not know
39:19 what we should pray for as we ought.
39:22 But the spirit himself makes intercession for us with
39:28 groaning with with groanings which cannot be ordered.
39:33 Can wreck your mind around that to understand that as you go to
39:37 the Lord in prayer and you humble yourself before him,
39:41 the Holy Spirit gets involved and takes your prayers to
39:45 heaven with groanings which cannot be ordered. This is a
39:48 marvelous thing to understand and it should draw was close to
39:52 the Lord to understand that the Holy Spirit is even taking a
39:54 person putting them in the language of heaven.
39:58 Beautiful, beautiful scripture.
40:00 Now, I want to let you know, and you should know that the
40:05 holy spirit gets more involved in our lives. Then we think I
40:10 remember a time that we received a phone call here at 3
40:12 of you in because I was working and pastoral ministry. Some
40:15 people are calling with different problems,
40:17 difficulties they're facing.
40:19 And though, you know, we're praying before the people
40:21 calling for prayer for the Holy spirit to use us. And this is
40:25 one time when this man present the situation, he says I'm
40:28 going to court tomorrow.
40:30 People have come against be unfairly. There they are
40:34 accusing me of something I have not done. And as he was
40:37 talking, I thought I'll share with him some. 46, God is our
40:41 refuge and strength of Preston helping time of trouble.
40:44 And I continue listening to him. And just when I thought
40:48 the time had come to share songs, 46, some 46 completely
40:52 left my mind. I couldn't even remember it. I said I'm trying
40:55 to remember this. The scriptures I wanted to share
40:58 with you and it was gone. It was gone and then well,
41:01 let's go to some. And I mentioned a psalm and I so I
41:04 don't know why that song is coming to my mind. I don't even
41:07 know what it says. Let's go look at it.
41:09 So we want to that's Tom and I was amazed
41:14 the Holy Spirit had the words in the song that specifically
41:19 address the situation he was going to. And I said, praise
41:22 the Lord. Look, this is the Holy Spirit led in this.
41:25 I told this person and this is what I believe you need.
41:28 Yes, you're right. He says. And then it was after that,
41:31 the psalm 46 came to mind. And I said, well, this is the
41:34 some that I originally wanted to talk to you. But the Holy
41:36 Spirit wanted to share this with this. We need to get we to
41:38 understand that the holy spirit gets involved in our lives and
41:41 in our prayers. Some 46, some 6 burst. 9
41:46 notice here. The expression that David saying that this is
41:51 a prayer. The Lord hath heard my supplication. The Lord will
41:55 receive my prayer and the Lord will receive your prayer.
41:59 Some 17 1
42:01 here. The right. Oh, lord attendant who might cry give
42:05 ear unto my prayer.
42:07 Some 39 12. Hear my prayer o lord and give ear onto my cry.
42:14 Some 54
42:16 first to hear my prayer o God give easier to the words of my
42:20 mouth. This sent to me Lord David is pouring out his heart.
42:25 Some 55 verse one, give ear to my prayer. God and I did not
42:30 die sell for my supplication. You see over and over again.
42:33 Many songs are really prayers. And this is something that I
42:37 want to encourage you to do. You don't know what you should
42:40 pray for, you know, the holy spirit that we don't even know
42:42 what we should pray for us. We as we we should. So if you
42:45 don't know what to see in your prayers, I encourage you to
42:48 look into the songs. We begin to write them down and see how
42:52 David is expressing himself. And you may say, well, I
42:55 identify with that.
42:57 I think how pretty that and you can pray this back to the Lord
43:01 just as David was doing, but apply to your situation.
43:04 Your experience
43:07 from the lesson we have these words, the Saugus
43:10 address got personally personally as my God. Oh,
43:16 Lord and Mike King Psalm 5 to Psalm. 84 3 are examples.
43:22 The psalmist often implore got to get year.
43:26 Some 5, 1, is an example. Hear my prayer. Some 39 12.
43:30 Also they say, look, law, you look at my situation, look at
43:33 what I'm going through
43:35 some 25 18. And then of course, there is the answer may be
43:39 hard. Answer me Psalm 102 verse 2 and the liver me Psalm 6,
43:45 4, And the lesson says these are clearly the expressions of
43:49 someone praying to God
43:52 who does not want their prayers to be. And so when they go
43:55 before the Lord, this is your your your desire. You eagerly
43:59 want to see the Lord work out a miracle in your life.
44:04 The lesson brings out the Jesus to quoted from the songs such
44:07 as in Luke Chapter 20 verse. 42 43
44:11 and this is when he quoted directly from Psalms 110 verse
44:15 one. I look now at live 20 verse. 42 43, this is Jesus
44:20 speaking. He says now they've it himself. Said in the book of
44:24 Psalms, the Lord said to my Lord, sit at my right hand till
44:29 I make your enemy is your foot stool.
44:32 Therefore, David, causing Lord, how is he then his son? So you
44:36 see this quoting of some 110 verse one, you can look that up
44:43 at another time.
44:44 But you will notice also that the psalms also expressed that
44:50 feelings of Jesus is such a psalm. 22 verse one, my God,
44:57 Oh, my God. Why hast thou forsaken me?
45:00 Why are they so far from helping me? And from the words
45:04 of my rolling
45:05 and is it is as if David was given a preview of what Jesus
45:11 was going to go through and is to is that
45:13 these can be said that it was not David saying these things.
45:17 It was Jesus
45:18 through the Holy Spirit in pressing David to write these
45:22 things. Remember
45:23 these things I have said unto you that when they come to
45:26 pass, you may believe so. As Jesus said, these things
45:30 they remembered. Hey, this is written in the scriptures,
45:33 some 69% in 9. I'm become a stranger into my brother and
45:37 and the Navy and onto my brother. My mother's children
45:40 for the zeal of their house have to eat me up and the
45:43 reproaches so than the reproach. The we are following
45:46 up on me notice also hear some 69. 21. They gave me also
45:51 golfer my meat and my Thursday gave me vinegar to drink.
45:55 Jesus identifies himself
45:57 in the songs as well.
45:59 >> Thank you all each and every one. I'm sure like when I have
46:03 Thursday Sluss and we're looking at the who the what the
46:07 why the where the how I've got to wear with Thursday's lesson
46:14 is the world of the Psalms. We're going to look into
46:21 the purpose of the songs and the World Bank and it did at
46:25 the time.
46:26 What place
46:29 just God occupy in this almost life.
46:34 And then I'm going to ask you,
46:36 we need to check our own polls and see what place does God act
46:43 to fight in our lots. Let's look at 6 samples that will
46:50 show us. God is the center of the Somos live
46:57 some 16 8. I have set the Lord always before me
47:04 and then resold
47:05 because he said my right hand. I shall not be the move.
47:12 Some 46, one,
47:14 God is our refuge and strength. A very present help in times of
47:22 trouble. Do you see him instead some 57 too
47:28 5 of this? I will cry out to God, most high
47:35 to God who performs all things for me.
47:40 Psalm
47:42 60 to 8
47:45 trusted him
47:48 just occasionally
47:51 just
47:52 in the morning.
47:53 >> Trust in him at all times. Shoot people pour out your
47:58 heart
48:00 before him.
48:02 >> Got us refuge for us. Say lot.
48:07 Do you pour your heart out to call this the center of your
48:12 life,
48:14 someone? 21 7,
48:16 the Lord shoppers serve you from.
48:19 >> All he will. He shall preserve here. So.
48:23 >> When you're living in the secret place of the most high,
48:27 God would haste the center of your life. That's what happens.
48:31 Here's one of my favorites.
48:33 Psalm one, 38 8.
48:37 I love this.
48:38 The Lord will perfect that which
48:43 >> concerns.
48:45 >> Can you imagine that's God's plan. God will perfect that
48:50 which can search you and him to state breaks out in praise your
48:55 Marcy own lowered. Your has said you're loving kindness,
48:58 your company to pay for this Nord
49:02 its doors for ever.
49:04 So the interesting thing here,
49:08 we look at the song's thus almost all relies
49:13 here step no matter where they might be
49:17 and he responds is perfect time. He is the ever-present
49:23 never fade. Like got
49:25 here's what the court leases, the world of the Psalms is
49:30 wholly got centered. It seeks to submit in prayer in praise.
49:36 All life experiences to got got is the sovereign creator,
49:40 the king and the judge of all the Earth. He provides all
49:44 things for his children. Therefore, he's to be trusted
49:48 at all. Times cars got was the center of the psalmist life and
49:54 the people fly back to guess what?
49:57 What a ship
49:59 with central to their lives. If God is the center of our
50:03 lives, worship should be central to our lives that we
50:07 keep the 7 critics ample spare some 44 per se in God we post
50:13 all day long and praise your name for ever. So 47 f one 7,
50:21 something I'm doing a lot lately without realizing it.
50:25 >> Clap your hands. All U Peoples.
50:28 >> Shout to God with the foist triumph. For guidance that
50:32 heating up the Earth's sing praises to ham with
50:36 understanding. Now
50:39 some try look t of God
50:42 in their lives produces this trial to have worship and
50:49 what are shipped in the biblical culture. It was
50:53 natural. It was
50:57 temple was the undisputed center. But the entire
51:02 community slide that church where that to us today, right?
51:09 3 verse 4,
51:12 the song most Christ out because he knows everything
51:16 that happens. Both good and bad
51:20 should be expressed in worship. He cries out some 3 Burr's for
51:25 I cried to the Lord with my voice.
51:27 He heard me from his only he'll say La. Think about that.
51:34 God is the God who hears you. He is the God who aim to ship
51:39 where he takes action. So 18, 6 in my distress. I called upon
51:45 the Lord and cried out to God. He heard my voice from his
51:49 temple and my cry came before him even to his ears,
51:57 some 20 under 6. Now I know that the Lord Save, says
52:02 anointed. He will answer him from his home leash. He'll with
52:07 the saving strength of his hand.
52:11 Some 24 versus 7, 3, 10. I love this one
52:18 up your heads. OU gates and big lift it up. You ever last doors
52:25 and that he know Laurie will come in.
52:29 Who is this king of glory.
52:32 The Lloyd strong and mighty Lloyd mighty battle. Lift up
52:37 your heads. You, Kate.
52:39 He would say to us today open your heart.
52:43 Lift up your everlasting doors and the King of glory show
52:48 coming to you.
52:50 Who is this Lord of Glory, King of Color. He is the Lord of
52:55 hosts and someone 39
52:59 versus 7, 8,
53:03 These are special.
53:05 These are showing
53:07 the on the presence of the Lord.
53:10 Some one. 39 their 7th in a
53:14 David writes, Where can I go from your spirit?
53:18 Where can I flee from your print since you can't get away
53:24 from God and he knows everything that's going on in
53:27 your life. And you know, you can't hide it. Some people are
53:31 like, oh, I don't want to save is to the Lord in prayer.
53:34 If Europe said he no sure up said if you're thinking
53:38 something that, you know, support your sake, you may as
53:41 well talk about it to him in prayer.
53:44 He says if I
53:47 he says if I ascend into heaven, you're there.
53:51 If I make my bed in h***, behold, you're there. This
53:55 reminds me
53:58 God had Moses right to this.
54:03 The Lord didn't start off it. The Lord obviously didn't find
54:07 it necessary to explain his existence. He just had Moses
54:13 Wright. 2 different
54:16 Merritt heats up. The creation story we find in Genesis.
54:22 One, a picture of God
54:26 who transcends everything case high and lifted up. He's a he's
54:31 before.
54:33 There was never beginning neighboring and have we can't
54:36 comprehend that in our humid in our humanity because everything
54:41 we know has a beginning and an end,
54:43 if we can only be in one place at one time. So it's like,
54:47 oh, lord, how can you be everywhere? But you know what?
54:50 He does have this second merit teeth.
54:53 God has. This is repeat and a large right from the beginning
54:58 of the Bible. Scott has Moses right this second year. It and
55:05 all of said in the second story of creation,
55:10 it shows he's in the nuts that he isn't up close and personal.
55:16 God, a God who speaks up. Got. Who hears of God. Who
55:24 is present everywhere? Where can I go for your spirit?
55:29 Where can I flee from your presence? If I said to happened
55:34 you there.
55:35 If I make my bed inhales, she'll that great.
55:39 Behold, you're right there. The psalms speak to making God
55:45 this center of your life
55:47 and making worship central to your life there. Beautiful man.
55:53 >> Thank you so much. Shelly Pastor Johnny Pastor James and
55:56 Ryan. What an incredible study as we do. This overview,
56:00 the book of Psalms before we jump in. Want to give you 20
56:02 who moment to share a final thought.
56:04 >> You know, man, I just wanted to go to some 23 verse 6,
56:07 again, do the kind of the theme Texan I ended on surely
56:11 goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life.
56:14 And I will dwell in the House of the Lord for ever.
56:17 >> A man and just remember the songs cover a full range of
56:22 human experience, whatever you're going through in life,
56:24 whatever struggles they're going through. If you're in a
56:26 time of praise and Thanksgiving, you'll find that
56:29 experience in the songs. I met the man,
56:33 the Psalms, our inspired scriptures that we should pay
56:37 attention until they are prayers as well. And we
56:41 encourage you to study and sing them and study them.
56:47 >> I know that I learned I learned to praise. I always
56:50 start with Thanksgiving and praise
56:53 and I was so limited back, go through the psalms and find the
56:57 price and sums they're so beautiful. Let me ask you,
57:01 where are you seeking to keep God just in to your life?
57:05 What aspect of your life are you trying to keep from him?
57:09 He know said Hall,
57:11 read the songs. Share your heart with Marte.
57:14 >> I'm what an incredible study we are just getting started.
57:19 I think from a personal perspective, what I really like
57:22 about the Psalm says that no matter where you are in your
57:25 journey with cheese us, no matter what on feeling on a
57:28 certain day, I can open up the sums that I can be honest with
57:32 got you can pray. Those sums back to him. If you're
57:35 struggling with discouragement, if you're dealing with anger as
57:39 Pastor James brought out, if you're dealing with self pity
57:42 or you need God to bring some of engines are maybe you want
57:46 to express that praise and thanksgiving of your heart.
57:49 All of that is in the songs. All of that you can share with
57:53 God and be honest with him. Next lesson lesson number to
57:57 join us. Teach us to pray. Join us as we explore how we
58:02 can take these sums in pray them back to got
