To discuss the broken place of pain, we must start by acknowledging the universality of pain and the many forms it takes (body, mind, and spirit). From the grief we experience at the loss of a loved one, to the anxiety and depression so often clouding our minds, to the chronic illness and pain which beset our bodies, pain is a part of all of our lives. Then we must explore the character of our God as one in the business of healing that pain (a.k.a. Jehova rapha – “the God who heals,” Exodus 15:26). In Psalm 147 the psalmist depicts God as being actively involved in healing our pain: rebuilding broken cities, bringing exiles home, healing the brokenhearted, bandaging wounds, supporting the humble, and blessing children. Luke 6:17-19 describes Jesus doing very much the same thing (“He healed everyone”). What might it look like for us to put our trust in a God who heals? And how might we join him in that healing work in the lives of others?

In Psalm 119:124, the psalmist asks God to deal with him according to his mercy. What is mercy, as opposed to other love words that are used of God?Music Credit: Johann Sebastian Bach, Trio from Brandenburg Concerto, No. 1, Movement 4

Imagine the blood of Jesus, the water that flowed from his side, and the application of his blood on your ailments. Imagine drinking the wonderful blood and the water that poured out of Jesus' side. This is for grown-ups who desire more of God and access to his wonderful love. Jesus Christ, on the cross, shed his blood, providing eternal salvation and sanctification. He offers us redemption through his blood and the Lord Jesus gives us his righteousness through his blood. He gives us his wisdom through his blood and the wonderful water that flowed from the side of Jesus Christ on the cross. These are benefits for us. Let's take advantage of them if our lives aren't working, if they don't make sense, if we're not getting any hope, if we're flying off the handle at work, if we're dissatisfied, or if we see dark images around us trying to make us fear. Do this practice, and I promise you, peace will overtake you, hope will fill your heart, and angels will be around you. You will grow in stature and measurement the way God intended for you to grow. I love you. God bless you. If no one told you they love you, I LOVE YOU! I give a high five. I care for you. I believe in you. You're a wonderful person. You're the child of the Most High, your wonderfully made! Let's do this as warriors in the benefits. In Psalm 103:1-5, bless the Lord, oh my soul, and all that is within me bless his holy name. Bless the Lord oh my soul, and forget none of his benefits. Who forgives all your iniquities, who heals all your diseases, who redeemed your life from destruction, who crowns you with loving kindness, and tender mercies, who satisfies your mouth with good things so that you're youth is renewed like the eagles!

In Psalm 34, David invites his listeners to learn the fear of Yahweh. But far more than an intellectual pursuit, David reminds us that to fear of the Lord, it demands that our lives come into alignment (conformed) with the God that we stand in awe and tremble before. In other words, to fear God means to have His righteousness, holiness, purity, and life demonstrated in and through our own. In this message, Nathan walks through Psalm 34, and encourages us to not only learn, but to experience and live the fear of Yahweh.

In Psalm 34:18, we’re reminded that “The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” But in seasons of heartbreak, unanswered prayers, or overwhelming busyness, God can sometimes feel distant. Cindi McMenamin shares how we can quiet the noise, draw near to God, and experience His presence as close and real as the air we breathe. ✨ Highlights Why God sometimes feels distant and how to reconnect with Him Four practical ways to experience God’s presence: Take a Divine Pause — slow down, breathe deeply, and be still (Psalm 46:10) Whisper His Name — use simple “breath prayers” like “Jesus, I need You” (Acts 4:12) Read His Word Aloud — Scripture is “living and active” and draws us closer (Hebrews 4:12) Start Praising Him — worship shifts our focus from ourselves to God’s goodness The promise of Jeremiah 29:13: when we seek Him with all our heart, we will find Him

Send us a messageIn a commentary written for “Endure” Ministries they write: “As believers, it is important that we learn and study the Names of God as revealed by His Word. In Psalm 9:10, it is written that: “And those who know your name, put their trust in You. For You, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.” And while “Jehovah” or “Yahweh” is the most common and important Name for God, there are hundreds more Names for Him in Scripture. Each one describes a particular characteristic or attribute of God. Therefore, they help us to understand more fully His power, wonder, and might. They describe Who He is,  what He does, and how He moves in our lives. But most of all, it brings us more fully into worship of Him – the Great I AM – the Mighty and Everlasting God – our Savior, Master, Lord and King!Support the showVisit our website: https://agapelightministries.com/

Today (a preview of our October Surprise Month), we look to delve into the question, Who is this King of Glory? On earth, we may be ruled by a King, or a parliament, or a representative republic, or a despot, or, just as the Akkadians called their early leaders, great men, but we are citizens of our God. In Psalm 98:6, "our King. the Lord."To our joy, no earthly ruler is our final authority. Who is this King of Glory?The God of the earthThe God of all fleshThe God of all comfortThe God of all grace.Of Him Jude reminds us:"Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy, 25 to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ."Jude 24-25"What a man is on his knees before God, that he is and nothing more."

Kennen wir das? Wir kommen nicht zur Ruhe. Uns fehlt der innere Frieden. Immer wieder liegen wir nachts wach – unsere Gedanken drehen sich permanent im Kreis. Die Umstände des Lebens, die Furcht einflößenden Nachrichten aus der Welt oder der bange Blick in die Zukunft bringen unser Innerstes in Aufruhr. Als beliebte Bewältigungsstrategie versuchen wir, bestimmte Dinge auszuklammern und nicht mehr darüber nachzudenken. Eine Diagnose wird verdrängt oder die Nachrichten einfach weggeschaltet. Nach dem Motto: Ablenkung statt Problembewältigung.Ganz anders geht jemand, der an Gott glaubt, damit um. In Psalm 43,5 heißt es: »Warum bist du unruhig, meine Seele, und was stöhnst du in mir?« Der Verfasser kennt sein Innerstes und nimmt heftige Gemütsschwankungen wahr. Eine tiefe Unruhe, die ihn zur Verzweiflung treibt. Doch während er darüber nachdenkt und seine Gedanken verarbeitet, kommt ihm die Lösung in den Sinn. Weiter heißt es nämlich im nächsten Vers: »Harre auf Gott!« Gemeint ist damit ein sehnsüchtiges Abwarten auf Gottes Handeln, was der Schlüssel für wahren inneren Frieden ist. Losgelöst von allen Umständen, Sorgen und Problemen, darf die Seele vor Gott zur Ruhe kommen.Wer Gott und dessen Verheißungen aus der Bibel kennt, der darf sorgenfrei in die Zukunft blicken und auch in aktueller Not jede Menge Hilfe, Trost und Kraft erfahren. Doch dieser innere Frieden ist ein Geschenk Gottes, das er nur denen zukommen lässt, die ihm vertrauen. Wenn wir eine grundlegende Hinwendung zu Gott vollzogen haben, dürfen wir ihn konkret und aufrichtig um Hilfe bitten und Zuflucht bei ihm suchen. Bei ihm darf unser Innerstes endlich zur Ruhe kommen. Unsere Seele findet nur bei Gott wahren Frieden.Alexander StrunkDiese und viele weitere Andachten online lesenWeitere Informationen zu »Leben ist mehr« erhalten Sie unter www.lebenistmehr.deAudioaufnahmen: Radio Segenswelle

In Psalm 119:123, the psalmist literally says his eyes are languishing for the saying or utterance of God's righteousness. Sometimes “of righteousness” can just be a fancy way of saying that the subject under discussion is righteous (e.g., an act of righteousness is a righteous act). But is that what the psalmist means here?Music Credit: Johann Sebastian Bach, Trio from Brandenburg Concerto, No. 1, Movement 4

“The Lord says, ‘I will rescue those who love me. I will protect those who trust in my name. When they call on me, I will answer; I will be with them in trouble. I will rescue and honor them.’” (Psalm 91:14–15 NLT) An old sea captain who was quite vocal about his atheism was washed overboard one night during a storm. His men heard him crying out to God for help. After his rescue, someone said, “I thought you didn’t believe in God.” He replied, “Well, if there isn’t a God, there ought to be for times like this.” Some people must hit rock bottom before they will cry out to God. C. S. Lewis wrote, “The atheist too has his moments of shuddering misgiving, of an all but irresistible suspicion that old tales may after all be true.” Sometimes the hardships of life are the very things that bring us to God. I remember a letter from someone who made a commitment to Christ at a Harvest Crusade. Her husband had a stroke, and she also was having problems with her mother. This woman became upset with God as all these things hit at once. Then her eight-year-old daughter heard about the Harvest Crusade and wanted to go. She wrote, “When the invitation was given, my daughter wanted to go forward, so I went with her. But little did I know that God was sending me down, too.” She went on to say, “After a few minutes, I fell on my knees, and I felt His love. I knew that He loves me and has forgiven me. You have saved my life, not only my soul.” That is a beautiful letter from someone who had hit rock bottom. Some people recognize rock bottom immediately. They can tell that their situation is far beyond their ability to do anything about it. So, they cry out in desperation. Other people refuse to surrender. Their pride won’t let them. They struggle and struggle, convinced that they can change their circumstances through sheer force of will. They want to claim credit for their own salvation, not realizing that they’re only prolonging their misery. Proverbs 29:23 says, “Pride ends in humiliation, while humility brings honor” (NLT). And James 4:6–7 says, “And he gives grace generously. As the Scriptures say, ‘God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.’ So humble yourselves before God” (NLT). Once they let go of their pride, they discover something infinitely more valuable: God’s presence. In Psalm 91:14–15, God says, “I will rescue those who love me. I will protect those who trust in my name. When they call on me, I will answer; I will be with them in trouble. I will rescue and honor them” (NLT). In the midst of our storms, we need to cry out to Jesus. Reflection question: What happened the last time you cried out to God in the midst of a storm in your life?

It's Friday, September 5th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Museum honors victims of genocide against Jews in Romania The Romanian city of Iași hosts the Pogrom museum, which was created to honor the victims the largest genocide against the Jews that took place on Romanian territory, preceding the deportations to Transnistria and the concentration camps at Auschwitz, reports Evangelical Focus. The museum was opened in the former headquarters of the Romanian police on June 29, 2021, the 80th anniversary of the killing of over 13,200 Jews in the yard of that building. In a story which aired on Alfa Omega TV, a Romanian broadcaster, the reporter explained, “Jews from the ages of 18 and up, were summoned, lured into a trap by being told to come and receive a pass for free movement. Romania had entered the war, and they could not move freely without that pass. However, they were met by Romanian and German soldiers who mercilessly machine-gunned them.” Before the genocide of the Jews, they brought in several Jews to dig the pits. The mass graves in which thousands of those Jews are buried can be visited in a field close to the museum. In addition to those who were executed, over 4,000 Jews were loaded into the so-called “death trains.” Initially, they put 40–50 people in a wagon, but the stationmaster refused to “waste wagons.” So, he packed in up to 100–120 people per train, standing pressed together. In the midst of this tragedy, there were “Christians from various denominations and even a colonel from the Romanian army, who saved Jews in those days.” DC sues Trump over National Guard The District of Columbia sued the Trump administration on Sept. 4 over its deployment of the National Guard to the nation's capital, reports The Epoch Times. The lawsuit alleges that the deployment violates the district's semi-sovereign status known as Home Rule, whereby the city has jurisdiction over its own affairs but Congress can override its decisions. The lawsuit states, “In so doing, [President Donald Trump] has run roughshod over a fundamental tenet of American democracy—that the military should not be involved in domestic law enforcement.” In a statement to The Epoch Times, the White House criticized the lawsuit and defended the deployment of the National Guard. White House Deputy Press Secretary Abigail Jackson said, “President Trump is well within his lawful authority to deploy the National Guard in Washington, D.C., to protect federal assets and assist law enforcement with specific tasks. This lawsuit is nothing more than another attempt—to the detriment of DC residents and visitors—to undermine the President's highly successful operations to stop violent crime in DC.” Trump asks Supreme Court to quickly take up tariffs case The Trump administration took the fight over tariffs to the Supreme Court on Wednesday, asking the justices to rule quickly that the president has the power to impose sweeping import taxes under federal law, reports American Family Radio News. The government called on the court to reverse an appeals court ruling that found most of President Donald Trump's tariffs are an illegal use of an emergency powers law. It's the latest in a series of Trump administration appeals to a Supreme Court he helped shape, and one that is expected to put a centerpiece of the president's trade policy before the justices. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit left the tariffs in place for now, but the administration nevertheless called on the high court to intervene quickly. Cheerleader charged with delivering, harming, & hiding her baby A University of Kentucky cheerleader is facing multiple charges after police found her dead newborn infant hidden in a closet, wrapped in a towel, and concealed inside a black trash bag, drawing reactions from activists on both sides of the abortion debate, reports the Christian Post. Laken Snelling, age 21, was arrested on Sunday and charged with abuse of a corpse, tampering with physical evidence and concealing the birth of an infant, according to the Lexington Police Department. During an appearance in court on Tuesday, Snelling pleaded not guilty. The American Association of Pro-Life OBGYNs said, "This heartbreaking and tragic incident is all the more painful as Kentucky has a safe haven law that allows parents to surrender their children, no questions asked.” Indeed, Kentucky's Safe Infants Act allows parents to leave a newborn baby under 30 days old at a police station, fire station, an emergency medical services provider, or a staffed place of worship without fear of prosecution or allegations of neglect.  In a video posted on her Instagram on Tuesday, pro-abortion writer Jessica Valenti was upset that police and the media in Kentucky said that Snelling had delivered an infant. Listen. VALENTI: “I really need reporters to stop using the word ‘baby' or ‘infant' until they actually know what happened in this case, because we don't know yet. We only know what police are telling us.” Oddly enough, Valenti believes that if a woman has a miscarriage that it somehow diminishes the value of the baby, and therefore, no one should call her baby a baby. In Psalm 139:13-14, Scripture quite clearly affirms the humanity of the child, no matter how early in gestational development and no matter the cause of death. King David wrote, “For You, [God], created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise You, [God], because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful, I know that full well.” Christian song “Whisper and the Wind” amassed 23 million streams And finally, you might recognize the name Bodie Kuljian from the 22nd season of The Voice back in 2022 when he won second place. The married 32-year-old singer-songwriter, who is also the father of three young children, signed with Provident, a Christian record label.  No Skips is his first full-length album, which releases today. The project comes after a string of chart-topping singles, millions of streams, and Dove Award nominations.  In fact, his song entitled  "Whisper and the Wind" amassed more than 23 million global streams, and won Bodie the grand prize in the International Songwriting Competition. Take a listen to an excerpt from this song that honors God as the One who fulfills us and guides us. (audio of song's opening) “When I'm feeling my feet are tired From running so hard for miles You are the air I really need When life is a rollercoaster And I start to lose composure You're in the drops and in between And every time I'm stuck in indecision Losing my vision You close the distance And I don't need to see it to believe it For my whole life, You've been that all I've needed And I, I've felt You in the fire and the rain So help me learn to listen when You're speaking 'Cause love is not a secret that You're keeping And I, I've felt You when walls are caving in Yeah, You're with me in the whisper and the wind” (Check out the rest of the lyrics) Isaiah 41:10 says, “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Friday, September 5th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

Send us a textPsalm 29: God's Powerful Voice Brings Peace in the StormsFew experiences shake us like a thunderstorm. The lightning, thunder, and wind remind us how small and fragile we are. In Psalm 29, David takes this awe-inspiring force of nature and declares that it is not Baal, blind chance, or impersonal forces that command the storm, but Yahweh, the Lord of heaven and earth. His voice thunders over the waters, shakes the wilderness, and yet, for His people, His final word is peace.In this episode of Counseling Through the Psalms, we'll explore how God's voice reveals His majesty, His sovereignty over creation, and His gift of strength and peace to His people.Key Points from Psalm 29Heavenly Worship (vv. 1–2): All creation, even the angelic hosts, are called to ascribe glory to the Lord in the splendor of His holiness.The Voice of the Lord (vv. 3–9): Seven times the psalm repeats, “The voice of the Lord,” emphasizing God's command over the storm, from the seas to the mountains to the wilderness.The King on the Throne (vv. 10–11): The psalm concludes with the Lord enthroned forever, giving strength and peace to His people.Christ-Centered Hope: Jesus Christ, the eternal Word, calmed storms with His voice, bore cosmic judgment at the cross, and now gives His peace to His people.Resources & Next StepsJoin the free Navigator Level of the Lessons for Life Community: https://jameslongjr.org/communityExplore membership and coaching options: https://jameslongjr.org/signupnow ABOUT JAMES and LESSONS FOR LIFE Are you seeking hope, wisdom, and practical solutions to life's challenges?

In Psalm 139, David marvels at the God who created the universe yet still knows us intimately. Pastor Josh unpacks how God's omnipotence is not just displayed in galaxies and stars but also in the way He fearfully and wonderfully made each one of us. This message reminds us that God's power is deeply personal—He formed us with care, has sovereign purposes for our lives, and calls us to embrace the unique design He's given us.

In Psalm 69, we have the prayer diary of Jesus and an expression of his anguish and his sufferings for us. This psalm, of course, is written by David, and it's about King David and his immediate problems. But it actually doesn't refer only to David—it also refers to a greater king than David and a far greater suffering. In John 15, Jesus tells his disciples that this psalm is talking about him. From this psalm, we can learn three things about what Jesus came to do: 1) he came to be a servant, 2) he came to be hated, and 3) he came to be exchanged. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on December 5, 1993. Series: Understanding Jesus. Scripture: Psalm 69.

We have moments in life we wish we could go back and change, undo, or relive for a variety of reasons. In Psalm 51, we see David's raw emotions revealed as He seeks forgiveness for the serious mistakes He has made.

In Psalm 133, we find a beautiful explanation of the God given goodness of dwelling in unity with our brothers and sisters in Christ. The Psalmist David, uses the images of a priestly ordination ceremony and the dew on the mountains to help us understand what unity in relationships can do in our lives and the life of the church. As we study this Psalm we'll see ways to realize that blessing in our everyday as we seek to dwell in unity with those around us.

Elder, Scott Culbreth, walks us through Psalm 19 this week. In Psalm 19 we see general and special revelation. Scott walks us through the implications for our lives as we live in a world where has revealed Himself in His creation and in His Word.

In Psalm 51 we learn that forgiveness is God's work for and in sinners and forgiveness is essential for the people of God.

In Psalm 119:122, the psalmist pictures himself going with the Lord to the bank, only instead of going to obtain a loan for money, they are going to obtain the psalmist's well-being, with the Lord serving as the guarantor. In this devotion we explore the Messianic overtones of this picture.Music Credit: Johann Sebastian Bach, Trio from Brandenburg Concerto, No. 1, Movement 4

Fear is one of the most powerful forces we face. It grips our hearts, clouds our thinking, and often keeps us from trusting God fully. Whether it shows up in anxiety over family struggles, health concerns, or uncertainty about the future, fear can feel overwhelming. In today's prayer and devotional, we are reminded that even David—the brave warrior who faced giants—admitted he was afraid. In Psalm 56:3, he writes, “When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.” His courage wasn’t rooted in his own strength but in his confidence that God was fighting for him. Today’s devotional encourages us to hand our anxious thoughts to the Lord and lean on His strength when fear creeps in. We are not alone—God promises His presence, peace, and protection for His children. Main Takeaways Fear is a natural human response, but it doesn’t have to control us. David shows us how to respond to fear: by placing our trust in God. When we shift our gaze from our fears to God’s promises, He fights our battles on our behalf. God’s presence offers peace even in the storms of life.

God's power isn't just out there holding the universe together. It's at work in you, shaping your life with value, purpose, and limits. In Psalm 139, we're reminded that the same God who spoke galaxies into being also handcrafted you with intention and invites you to live fully in His plan.

When you think of your Father, what comes to mind? Maybe you remember a special family vacation, a moment when he was proud of you, or maybe the memories of your dad are difficult. As we conclude our summer series Worship and Wonder, Pictures of God in the Psalms, Trevor Hunt invites us to reflect on the image of God as our Heavenly Father. In Psalm 103, we see a powerful picture of a Father who forgives all our iniquities, heals our diseases, redeems our lives from the pit, and crowns us with His steadfast love and mercy.

In Psalm 23:1–3, David makes a bold claim: “The LORD is my shepherd, I lack nothing.” But how can that be true when we often feel empty, restless, or in need? In this message, Eric Gentry shows how the rest of the psalm explains this radical promise—our Shepherd feeds us until we can rest, protects us when predators circle, and leads us on right paths for His glory. Unlike lions, who are always hungry and vulnerable, sheep with a strong shepherd are fully provided for and secure. Eric reminds us that God's provision isn't just about meeting our needs, but about displaying His name to the world through His care for His people. If you've ever wondered how to live content, even in seasons of struggle, this sermon will help you see why in Christ you truly “lack nothing.”

Waiting is something few of us enjoy—it often feels like wasted time. But if anyone understood the challenge of waiting, it was King David. In Psalm 37, we sit at the feet of a seasoned and wise David, who shows us that waiting on the Lord is not passive or pointless, but purposeful. Today, we'll explore the unexpected benefits that come from learning to wait well.Welcome to Antioch Georgetown!

Sinful thoughts often begin quietly—an unchecked idea, a hidden fault, or a willful choice. Left unattended, they can grow into habits that enslave us. In Psalm 19:12-14, David prays for God’s forgiveness, protection, and guidance so that his heart and words might be pleasing in God’s sight. In today's prayer and devotional, Jessica Van Roekel reminds us that victory over sin isn’t about willpower alone. It comes from surrendering our hearts and minds to the Lord, allowing Him to be our Rock, Refuge, and Redeemer. God provides a way out of temptation, giving us strength to overcome sinful patterns and live in freedom. Main Takeaways Sin often begins as a thought and progresses if not surrendered to God. Like David, we can pray for forgiveness of hidden faults and strength against willful sins. God is our Rock and Redeemer, rescuing us from spiritual oppression and restoring us. The Holy Spirit always provides an escape from temptation (1 Corinthians 10:13). Living in victory requires dependence on God and aligning our words and thoughts with His will. Bible Verse References Psalm 19:12-14 – “But who can discern their own error? Forgive my hidden faults…” 1 Corinthians 10:13 – God provides a way out from temptation. Hebrews 4:13 – Nothing is hidden from God’s sight. Calls to Action (CTAs) Subscribe to Your Daily Prayer for daily devotionals rooted in Scripture.

In Matthew 13 Jesus tells a parable about the kingdom of heaven and he says that, "the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and covered up. Then in his joy, he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field." The point of this parable is that there is nothing more valuable than the kingdom of God, and that, like the man in the parable, we should not allow anything to stand in the way of our entering that kingdom. Psalm 72 has much to say about the kingdom of God and what it will be like, but even more importantly, I think Psalm 72 shows us why the kingdom of God is so valuable and so great. In Psalm 72 we see that The Greatness of God's Kingdom is Found in the Greatness of God's King...The author of Psalm 72 beautifully draws upon many Old Testament promises about the Messiah-King and essentially turns them into a prayer for God to bring this king, and all of his blessings, into the world. So wonderfully, then, does this great prayer find an even greater answer in the true king of God's kingdom, the Lord Jesus Christ. In Psalm 72, we see that the reign of King Jesus will bring Righteousness & Justice, Peace & Prosperity, and most importantly, it will last forever... Psalm 72 has been long loved by the people of God and was the inspiration for the great hymn "Jesus Shall Reign" written by Isaac Watts in 1719.

In Psalm 84 we see our deep longing for God's presence, the journey of faith through trials, and the hope of our true home with Him. This week Pastor Mike explores how God meets us in our yearning, sustains us on the way, and calls us to live in His blessing.

Joy is not something we manufacture—it's a gift from God. In Psalm 126, the pilgrims sing of God's past restoration and pray with hope for more, reminding us that joy flows from God's faithfulness yesterday and His promises for tomorrow. In this sermon, we reflect on what it means to be people who dream again, who sow even through tears, and who reap with songs of joy. No matter the season, we are invited to walk as a community marked by joy, laughter, and hope in Christ.For more information about Integrity Church, visit our website, http://liveintegritychurch.org Connect with us on social media throughout the week to stay up to date on events and things happening at Integrity!

Why do the wicked seem to prosper while the righteous suffer? In Psalm 73, Asaph wrestles with this same tension—until worship gives him an eternal perspective where God's nearness is his true good.

We live in a world in which some people do evil to others and yet go unpunished. Faced with this reality, we may doubt that God is just. In Psalm 94, the psalmist reassures us that He is and shows us how to live in light of this truth.

In Psalm 135, the worshipers who have been ascending to the LORD's house on Zion sing their praises to Him. All of the priests and the servants of the LORD are called upon to praise the LORD as the only true God who accomplishes His will of salvation. His praise sounds forth throughout all creation, even as His people know Him as the true God who delivered them from their enemies. All idols are nothing, and those who worship such idols become like them, but those who fear the LORD as the only true God dwell in eternal life, just as He does.  Rev. James Preus, pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church in Ottumwa, IA, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Psalm 135.  To learn more about Trinity Lutheran, visit trinitylutheranottumwa.com. Join Sharper Iron this summer to study selected Psalms. In the Psalter, God speaks His Word to us and teaches us how to speak back to Him in prayer. Even in the great variety of the Psalms, each one points us to our Savior, Jesus Christ.  Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org

Part of God's unchanging nature is that He is sovereign and does things His way. In Isaiah 55, we read that God's ways are not our ways, and His thoughts are not our thoughts. In other words, He's infinitely more powerful than we are, especially when it comes to perspective.  We read in the Old Testament that sometimes other nations mocked the Israelites when they were exiled from their homeland. Really, they were mocking God because it was said that maybe He couldn't keep His promises. After all this, after the Assyrians and Babylonians conquered Israel, neighboring pagan nations remembered that God had promised to give the land to the Israelites. But did that mean God had lied, and was in reality no more powerful than man? No, not at all.                                                 Numbers 23:19 says, “God is not human, that he should lie, not a human being, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?” In fact, God tells us clearly that He does exactly what He wants, when He wants. We see this in Isaiah 46. When God led the Israelites out of Egypt, but they were then confronted at the Red Sea by Pharaoh's army—did that mean God had lied when He promised to lead them out of slavery? Of course not. In fact, it was then He performed one of history's greatest miracles. In Psalm 16:10, we read that God would not allow your holy one to rot in the grave, and this is a reference to Jesus. Yet, when Jesus died on the cross, many assumed that God had either lied or was powerless to stop Jesus from being entombed. We know how that story ended, and the triumph of life over death. God did raise Jesus from the dead. His body did not decay in the grave. So, it's a matter of perspective, then. Humans, with their limited understanding, think from time to time that God cannot keep His promises, but He keeps them all the time. All promises fulfilled—100% of the time. He cannot lie. Let's pray. Father God, you alone are powerful and you are our strength. You are perfect in all of your ways and have demonstrated that time after time. Help us let others see that—those who might doubt you. In Jesus' name, amen.  Change your shirt, and you can change the world! Save 15% Off your entire purchase of faith-based apparel + gifts at Kerusso.com with code KDD15.

In seasons of hurting, it is difficult to find comfort and peace. But there is a source that we can draw from. In Psalm 34, we find the future King David running for his life in a cave, surrounded by others who are miserable. Yet, David can still praise God.Psalm 34 SuperscriptionPsalm 34:1-31. WHEN I AM HURTING I WILL PRAISE GOD PASSIONATELY AND PUBLICLY. PSALM 34:4-7Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me, Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me, Christ on my right, Christ on my left, Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down, Christ when I arise… PSALM 34:8-102. WHEN I AM HURTING I will trust God to be my protector and provider. PSALM 34:11-16 3. WHEN I AM HURTING I will pursue peace and I will reject evil.  PSALM 34:17-224. When I am hurting, I am not condemned and I know I will be delivered.

Bible Reading: Psalm 139:1-10Malachi waited in the hallway, tapping his foot on the floor. "Almost time…"He didn't have to wait long. The door to his dad's office opened, and his dad appeared with his glasses pushed up on the top of his head. "Hi, bud," Dad said.Malachi grinned and started for the kitchen. He knew his dad would follow him.An hour later, Malachi positioned himself in the hallway again. This time his dad wouldn't just be getting water but also a snack. He was hoping he might share."Have you been standing out here all morning?" Dad asked as he stepped out of his office.Malachi shook his head with a grin. "What are you having today? Yogurt? A granola bar?"Dad gave him a sheepish smile. "How did you know I was feeling ready for a snack?"Malachi shrugged. Ever since his dad started working from home, he'd been paying attention and learning his routine.Malachi told his grandma about it that evening when she came to the house so his dad could go to a meeting. "I've memorized it all. He does everything at a certain time, even going outside to get a little fresh air."Grandma smiled. "It shows you care a lot about him for you to memorize his routine so you can see him when he takes little breaks from his work."Malachi nodded slowly. It did show that, didn't it? He wanted all the time he could get with his dad.Malachi frowned. "No one cares enough to memorize my routine. I don't think Dad even knows what time I get up.""Your dad might not, but someone does," Grandma said, scooping a homemade brownie onto a plate. "In Psalm 139, we read that God knows every move we make. Not only did He love us enough to send Jesus to save us from sin, but He cares about us enough to pay attention to our daily routines.""Really?" Malachi asked. "Well, that's cool."Grandma nodded. "Your dad loves and cares about you too, Malachi. If you're feeling lonely, maybe you should talk to him about spending more time together. But when your dad can't be with you, remember that God is. He knows everything about you and cares about your life. You can always talk to Him." –Emily AckerHow About You?Do you ever feel like no one really cares about you or pays a lot of attention to the things you do? If so, talk to a trusted adult about it so they can help. But know that God cares about you. He knows every detail of your life and wants to hear about everything you're going through. When it feels like no one cares, tell Him how you feel and trust Him to help you.Today's Key Verse:Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him, on those who hope in His mercy. (NKJV) (Psalm 33:18)Today's Key Thought:God cares about you
