SNS 055: How To Not Be Afraid. Psalm 27, Psalm Tuesday

In this episode, the Psalmist makes a bold claim. He says, because God is his light, deliverance, and refuge he will not be afraid; that he will not fear or dread anyone. How is this even possible. Yeah, anyone can say this. But how does one make this a reality? The Psalmist says… well, that is getting ahead of ourselves, isn’t it? We’ll talk about it after the reading.

SNS 054: Praising God Is to Draw Closer to Him. Psalm 26, Psalm Tuesday

In today’s Psalm, I heard something very cool. Here we hear a song of praise that involves the Psalmist asking God to refine his emotions, character, and mind. Praising God, asking God to refine him even further, and this because God’s kindness and graciousness are his focus. What an amazing thing! That trust in God will lead to asking for an even deeper connection with him. And doesn’t this remind you of the Greatest Command ever given, to love God with our heart, soul, and mind?

SNS 053: What Grace Allows. Psalm 25, Psalm Tuesday

It has been said, one thing which sets Christianity apart from all other religions is grace. God loving us so much, despite choices we have made or things we have done, that he offers us forgiveness of it all in order to establish a relationship with us. If we but choose to accept his offer. Divine grace, that which answers fully the demands of divine justice. The psalm in this episode, Psalm 25, offers us a beautiful example of God’s grace in action. It is what allows one, who knows his guilt is great to come and ask forgiveness of his sins. Knowing that God is faithful to forgive him. This allows him to fully desire and place his trust in God. What a miraculous thing grace is.

SNS 052: Who Can Stand Before the King and Creator? Psalm 24, Psalm Tuesday

In this episode, the Psalmist tells us who it is that is able to approach and stand before God. The one clean of hand and pure of heart; the one who humbly consults with God.  Those who search for him. How is this done? The Psalmist says something interesting; he says to open the gate and let God in. Open the gate to let Almighty God in… how intriguing.

SNS 051: The Abundant Life, Gritty and Real, Psalm 23, Psalm Tuesday

There is perhaps no Psalm that is more popular that this one, the 23rd Psalm. Sometimes called The Shepherd’s Psalm. You know it, right? “The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want.” We love the phrases: I shall not want, green pasture, still water, he restores my soul, preparing a table. What wonderful promises for us…? Yet, what if they are not promises to us at all? What if this Psalm is not about us at all? What if it is completely about praising God for what he has already done? I mean, don’t get me wrong, these are all wonderful things, and yes, God, as the good shepherd, does these things for us. But what if there is something even deeper, more profound going on?
