O LORD, have mercy upon us

Our Eyes Look to the Lord Our God A Song of Ascents. 123 To you I lift up my eyes,    O you who are enthroned in the heavens!2 Behold, as the eyes of servants    look to the hand of their master,as the eyes of a maidservant    to the hand of her mistress,so our eyes look to the Lord our God,    till he has mercy upon us. 3 Have mercy […]

Psalm 123: Lifting Our Eyes to God for Mercy Series: Walking Through the Psalms Host: Dave Jenkins Date: December 26, 2025 Show Summary Psalm 123 is a prayer for weary believers who feel worn down, mocked, or burdened by life. In this episode, Dave Jenkins explores how this Song of Ascents calls God's people to lift their eyes to the enthroned Lord, wait dependently for His mercy, and trust Him amid contempt and opposition. This psalm teaches us that the Christian life is lived not by self-sufficiency, but by humble dependence on the mercy of God—especially when trials press in and strength runs low. Audio Player Video Player Key Scripture Psalm 123 Episode Notes Looking Up to the Enthroned King (Psalm 123:1) Waiting Dependently for Mercy (Psalm 123:2) Crying Out Under Contempt (Psalm 123:3–4) Key Themes God is enthroned in heaven and rules over all things. Believers are called to depend entirely on God's mercy. Waiting on God is active faithfulness, not inactivity. God's people often endure scorn and opposition in the world. Mercy is God's loving response to our weakness. Takeaways Toward God: Lift your eyes to the Lord daily and depend on His mercy. Toward Yourself: Embrace dependence instead of self-sufficiency; remember your limitations. Toward Others: Show mercy to the weary and discouraged. Toward the World: Expect contempt, but respond with trust and steadfastness—not fear. Christ-Centered Focus Psalm 123 finds its fulfillment in Jesus Christ. Jesus endured scorn and contempt, yet trusted the Father and obeyed perfectly. At the cross, mercy descended not in judgment upon us, but in grace through Christ. Because of Jesus, we lift our eyes with confidence, knowing God's throne is a throne of grace.

The final prophecy against a particular nation is a doozy, proclaiming total annihilation and ruin and spanning two long chapters, one of which is the fifth longest chapter in Scripture. Who could this prophecy be against? What nation's actions would merit such a rebuke? If you guessed Babylon, you are right! Though the Lord allowed Babylon to attack His own people and send them into exile, Babylon is still responsible for their own sin and their own actions. By God's design, his people are punished because of their ongoing sin and rebellion, but Babylon is punished more so because of their idolatry and wickedness. This is a long episode so plan accordingly.Jeremiah 51 - 1:12 . Jeremiah 52 - 16:45 . Psalm 123 - 23:36 . Psalm 124 - 24:19 .  :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by Bobby Brown, Katelyn Pridgen, Eric Williamson & the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

In this teaching, we explore Psalm 123 within the broader context of the Psalms and Israel’s history. Spanning over a millennium, the 150 Psalms were carefully curated into five books, each reflecting key moments in Israel’s journey. Psalm 123 resides in the fifth and final book, known as the Psalms of Ascent, which captures the experience of God's people returning from exile to rebuild Jerusalem and reignite worship. This Psalm vividly portrays the posture of faithful waiting and hopeful looking to God amidst contempt, scorn, and hardship. Using rich imagery, it compares the people's gaze to that of a servant watching their master’s hand—patiently and expectantly awaiting divine favor. We unpack the historical backdrop from Nehemiah’s account, where the Israelites face ridicule and opposition while reconstructing Jerusalem’s walls, yet remain steadfast in their plea for God’s gracious intervention. The teaching also connects Psalm 123 to Jesus’ own experience, highlighting how He embodied this trust and grace even in the face of ultimate rejection and suffering on the cross. Jesus’ prayer for mercy amidst scorn reveals the profound mercy and favor God extends to us, encouraging us to adopt the same posture of reverent dependence. Key themes include: - The intentional arrangement of Psalms into historical and spiritual collections. - The Psalms of Ascent as expressions of physical and spiritual journeying toward God. - The dual imagery of God enthroned in heaven yet intimately near to His people. - The call to patiently wait on God’s timing and direction, trusting His sovereign hand. - The challenge to avoid distraction and apathy, and instead to actively lift our eyes to God in all life’s trials. - The ultimate fulfillment of these themes in Jesus Christ, who models perfect trust and mercy. Whether you’re wrestling with personal hardship, seeking a deeper understanding of scripture, or longing for renewed hope, this teaching offers a rich, poetic framework to engage with God authentically. Learn how to “put on spiritual eyes,” embrace a posture of faithful waiting, and discover God’s favor and grace in every season. * SPOTIFY MUSIC PLAYLIST -- https://tinyurl.com/fkzpkjwh * SERMON PODCAST -- https://tinyurl.com/2sn3msmn * CONNECT WITH US -- https://siderischurch.com/connectcard * MORE GOSPEL RESOURCES -- https://siderischurch.com/resources

Eyes Up: Psalm 123 (7-6-25) Anthony Ceder by Grace Commons Church

How do I stay true to who I am? We lift our eyes to the Lord. Jesus names his followers as no longer servants but friends - we are brought into something good, to participate in his mission. Being followers of Jesus is central to our identity - we are sons and daughters, heirs.
