Podcasts about psalm 140

The idea that God knows each person on earth intimately has proven one of the more attractive facets of Christianity, and the concept makes its first biblical landfall in the Book of Psalms.The final short songs of the Psalms are some of the most joyful and poetic as the book crescendoes towards its finale.Written and produced by Chas BayfieldMusic by Michael Auld and Jon Hawkins MusicCover art by Lisa Goff

I know...

Grant not the desire of the wicked...

Deliver me from evil men...

Enemies, abusers, bullies and scoffers are real; God promised to be our strength against them.

241117PM Psalm 140 John Cyr by Pastor Will Cass

In light of the cross, do we really want burning coals to fall on our enemies' heads? Today, Seth Master talks through Psalm 140 and how we think about justice and hope in light of the cross. Through four movements of the psalm, David shows the truth that despite evil and how it affects him, he expresses confidence in God's justice. Because of our sin, we were all enemies of God. The cross has made a way for those who have been made righteous in Christ to dwell in the presence of God.   Register for Training Day x Join The Journey here: https://www.watermark.org/events/6353-training-day-x-join-the-journey  Additional scripture mentioned in today's episode: 2 Chronicles 34 – King Josiah finding the Law  Grab a Psalms Join The Journey Journal for 2024: https://a.co/d/7rt0H3g  Got kids?

The Book of Psalms - Bible Study ~ 2024

We begin with a pronouncement against Tyre, an island city that served as profitable port which traded in luxurious goods. Tyre established a trading colony called Tarshish (thought to be in modern-day Spain) which boasted impressive ships. Assyria attempted to take Tyre a number of times, but it was Nebuchadnezzar who first infiltrated the island city, followed by Alexander the Great who destroyed it. The following chapters in this episode concern God's judgment of the whole earth, a judgment brought about by the sin of mankind. Though celebration will come to an end for a time, God will eventually prepare a feast for the peoples of earth and death will be destroyed forever. Keep your ears open for messages of resurrection as we read.Isaiah 23 - 1:03 . Isaiah 24 - 4:30 . Isaiah 25 - 9:16 . Isaiah 26 - 11:58 . Isaiah 27 - 16:00 . Psalm 140 - 19:08 .  :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Bible.facebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

Marco Hipwell preaching on Psalm 140

This week a nearby church hosted a Vacation Bible SchoolMy fourteen-year-old granddaughter, Adrianna, volunteered to help out- on Friday, a friend sent me a video that she filmed the day before• when I watched it, there was Adrianna on a stage in front of a crowd of kids• she had a Bible in her hand, and from it she read a couple verses from the Psalms◦ then she gave a brief talk, encouraging everyone to trust God's love and faithfulness- Adrianna was superb – as if she were a professional and had done this for years• I was very impressed

This is Christian Meditation for A Bigger Life – a time for you to relax, refocus, and re-narrate your life. I'm Dave Cover. I want to help you with Christian meditation where you can break through all the distractions and experience God's presence through biblically guided imagination.  Our summer schedule has begun. Look for new once-per-week episodes each Tuesday during the summer. If your podcast app is set to skip the silent sections, disable that in your podcast app for this podcast. Psalms 140:6 (NIV)  I say to the LORD, “You are my God.” Hear, LORD, my cry for mercy. One way to think of mercy is not getting the punishment you deserve. Whereas grace is getting the blessing you don't deserve.  We don't want to get too technical with these kinds of things because this distinction is not always what the biblical authors are thinking – but one way to think of mercy is the death of Jesus on the cross and one way to think of grace is the resurrection of Jesus. The cross takes the punishment you deserve. The resurrection gives you the blessing you don't deserve. The cry for mercy is the acknowledgment of your desperate need for God‘s forgiveness. To atone for your sin through Jesus on the cross. It's an emotional disposition of humbling ourselves before God and acknowledging that we have nothing in ourselves to put our confidence in except to cry out for God's mercy. “Have mercy on me, a sinner” is what the tax collector says in Jesus's parable in Luke 18:13. And Jesus says he's the one who went away justified before God (Luke 18:14). “For those who humble themselves will be exalted.” To me at least, there's a kind of relief that comes from knowing that my only hope is to cry out for God's mercy. Knowing that there's nothing I can do to atone for my sin other than humble myself and cling to Jesus on the cross. That that's my only good option. “LORD” in all uppercase letters in our English Bibles indicates that in Hebrew God's name, Yahweh, is used (for example, Exodus 3:14-15; Isaiah 42:8). Yahweh is the ancient Hebrew verb form for “HE IS.” God's name, Yahweh, is used more than any other term for God in the Hebrew scriptures. More than “God” is used.  When we survey the various truths associated with God's name, HE IS, in the Hebrew scriptures (what we call the Old Testament), four important aspects of God are emphasized.  HE IS the Creator and Sustainer of ALL that exists, including this entire universe (Ps 33:6; Isa 40:26; Isa 42:5; Isa 44:24).  HE IS the Giver and Sustainer of ALL life everywhere always (Num 27:16; Job 12:10; Acts 17:25). HE IS eternal and forever God (Isa 40:28; Isa 57:15) HE IS ALWAYS infinitely 100% present with you and in control of everything in your life at every moment (Ps 31:14-15; without being any less present or focused anywhere else in the universe, because HE IS infinite). See Jesus's words in Matthew 10:29-31. We often meditate on God‘s name in this podcast because it is the key to experiencing God as HE IS. God's name is filled with wonder and mystery and transcendence for us to meditate on using our biblically guided imagination. So imagine – envision – this reality. He is the Source of all being; he is the Giver of your life and sustains your life at every moment; he is the one who “inhabits eternity” (Isaiah 57:15), and so has the eternal perspective in all your life's circumstances; and he is infinitely, intimately, 100% present with you at every moment and in control of every circumstance in your life.
