Podcasts about Psalm 73

Second Baptist Church - Houston, TX | Asaph opens up about his own struggle with envy, and how it almost derailed his entire life. As he addresses the assumptions, actions, and accusations that got him there, he warns us about the subtleties of envy that lurk in our heart. But like him, in Christ, we worship can be our last word - the vertical, not the horizontal.

Psalm 73

Summer Of Psalms: Psalm 73 "You're Standing on Solid Ground" (Harold Guerra) by Pastor Harold Guerra

This week our Elder Toyin explores the tension found in Psalm 73 between the way of the righteous and the envy, temptation, and discontenment they can experience in this world. The remedy to this? Recognising God alone as our portion and prize.

Hello and thank you for joining us! At Gospel Community Church we teach the Bible line by line, verse by verse. In this week's sermon, David Patton takes us through Psalm 73 as we see the hymn writer Asaph confess his temptations of envy and praise the Lord because He is all that we need. This world has nothing better to offer. Want to go deeper in the scripture? Follow our sister podcast, ⁠⁠⁠⁠Deeper in the Text⁠⁠⁠⁠ , to take this text one step further!

Have you ever watched someone do everything wrong and still seem to come out ahead, while you are trying to honor God and paying the price for it? It can make you question what God is doing and whether faithfulness is even worth it. But there is something you cannot see yet, and once God reveals it, the entire picture changes.

Send us Fan MailIn this final episode of our Loud Longings, Holy God series, we bring everything back to the truth we've been discovering together: our deepest longings were always meant to lead us to Jesus. We talk about why cravings, emotional eating, scrolling, shopping, striving, and the search for approval aren't random—they often reveal a deeper desire for lasting comfort, peace, and connection with God. Reflecting on Psalm 73, we explore how even the best things in life can never fully satisfy, while God alone becomes the portion that never fades.We also look at Jesus' invitation throughout the Gospels and His prayer in John 17, where eternal life is described as knowing God personally. For those who struggle to sense God's nearness, we offer practical encouragement for renewing your mind with truth and cultivating awareness of His presence throughout the day. We close the series with a simple practice: pause and ask, "Lord, where are You right now?" Our prayer is that this conversation helps you move beyond temporary comforts and discover the lasting hope, peace, and relationship that can only be found by abiding in Christ.If you are ready to trade counterfeit comforts for real comfort, press play, share this with a friend who feels stuck, and leave a review so more people can find it.

Come on, admit it—we've all had moments when we've questioned our faith, questioned God, or wondered if He truly sees and cares. Those questions often surface when life takes an unexpected turn. The death of a loved one, a cancer diagnosis, conflict around the world, or suffering like the famine in Sudan can all lead us to ask the same question: "God, how can You allow this?"This Sunday, we're going to explore Psalm 73, read in full by Jail Ministry volunteer, Mark Taylor. In many ways, it's the book of Job in miniature. The psalmist comes within inches of walking away from his faith as he wrestles with doubt, injustice, and the apparent prosperity of the wicked. Yet by the end of the psalm, he finds himself closer to God than ever before.How did he move from doubt to confidence? From confusion to trust? That's the journey we'll take together this Sunday. And the hope of Psalm 73 is this: if God met the psalmist in the middle of his questions, He can meet us there too.I hope you'll join us as we discover that even when life doesn't make sense, God is still good, still present, and still worthy of our trust.--WebsiteFacebookInstagramSunday SetlistSunnybrook App (ios)Sunnybrook App (Google)Connect with us!How can we pray for you?

Have you ever looked around at people who play by their own rules, cheat their way to the top, and mock everything holy, only to watch them coast through life in luxury while you sweat blood just to keep food on the table? That crushing thought sneaks into the quietest hours of Monday morning, whispering that your faithfulness has been a bad investment and your sacrifices have yielded nothing but calloused hands. In this message on Psalm 73, Pastor Steve McKenzie uncovers the ancient journal of Asaph, a man whose feet were slipping on glassy ice as he choked on the thick fog of envy and silent doubt. When life curdles your soul and pain reduces you to living by sheer survival instinct, God does not cast you off or recoil from your honesty. Instead, the holy presence of God clears the haze of temporary ease and lifts your eyes to eternity. Discover how Jesus entered our brokenness, laid down His heavenly wealth, and surrendered His flesh to be pierced on the cross so that He could become your unshakable inheritance when your own heart and strength fail.

Psalm 73 confronts one of the most corrosive forces in our spiritual lives: envy. This ancient song reveals how a worship leader named Asaph nearly abandoned his faith, not because of persecution or intellectual doubt, but because of envy toward the wicked and prosperous. The psalm takes us on a journey from bitter comparison to radical contentment. Asaph confesses that while he preached God's goodness, his feet had almost stumbled as he watched ungodly people thrive while he struggled. He describes their apparent freedom from trouble, their pride, and their complete lack of fear of God. The turning point comes with a single word: until. Until he entered the sanctuary of God, his vision remained clouded. But in God's presence, everything shifted. He saw with an eternal perspective that the wicked stand on slippery ground, destined for destruction, while those reconciled to God inherit eternal riches. The sanctuary for us is Jesus Christ Himself, the true meeting place between God and humanity. When we realize that we have Christ, we have everything. This psalm challenges us to examine what we believe will finally make us content. Is it wealth, health, status, or someone else's life? Or is Jesus our rare jewel of contentment? Envy is a hole in the heart that leaks joy, but Christ alone fills that hole completely and eternally.

This Sunday, during our outdoor service, studied Psalm 73. In this psalm, the psalm writer, Asaph, sings about a great struggle that almost ruined him. He started comparing himself to those who didn't seek after God or live for God but still seemed happy and prosperous. He fell into the deadly sin of comparison.  Psalm 73 reminds us that the greatest treasure in our lives is not possessing the gifts but being the treasured possession of the Giver. It's not having all the so-called blessings of this life but rather, it is knowing that you belong to the Giver of every good and perfect gift. One of the greatest needs of every child of God is to learn the secret of godly contentment. The apostle Paul writes to Timothy in 1 Timothy 6:6 - “But godliness with contentment is great gain.” Do you struggle with the sin of comparison? At some point, don't we all? Is it killing your joy and making you miserable? Do you know how to possess what the puritan writer Jeremiah Burroughs called “The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment”? Come this Sunday as we study another wisdom Psalm.   Come, worship, stay and be encouraged (and bring a friend)!

This sermon explores Psalm 73 to address the crisis of faith arising from the apparent prosperity of the wicked. The preacher explains how Asaph's initial envy and doubt are resolved through entering the sanctuary of God, which provides a fresh perspective on divine love and eternal judgment. By focusing on the gospel and the reality of eternity, believers can recognize that their suffering is under God's loving care rather than His anger. The message encourages Christians to find true satisfaction in God alone, trusting in His guidance and ultimate glory despite present circumstances. Ultimately, the sermon asserts that drawing near to God through Christ restores faith and confirms His goodness.

Send us Fan MailIn this fifth episode of our Loud Longings, Holy God series, we talk honestly about why surrender can feel so difficult, especially when we're letting go of the very things we've relied on for comfort. We begin with a breath prayer from Psalm 73—“You are the strength of my heart... and my portion forever”—and explore how stress, grief, and uncertainty can drive us toward emotional eating, control, perfectionism, busyness, scrolling, or other attempts to find quick relief. Together, we discuss why surrender often involves loss and why acknowledging that grief is an important part of the journey.Looking at Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, we see that surrender isn't about pretending everything is fine—it's about bringing our deepest struggles into relationship with the Father. We encourage listeners to choose connection with Jesus before reaching for immediate relief and share a simple practice to help pause and respond differently when urges arise. If surrender has ever felt overwhelming, we hope this conversation reminds you that you don't have to walk that path alone.If this helped you, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find the show. Support the showLearn more about our Revelation Within Community: https://www.revelationwithin.org

“Water has tremendous erosive power, particularly when carrying large amounts of sediment and rock, like the Colorado River does with flooding.” So says the National Park Service when explaining the role the Colorado River has had in the forming and carving out of the Grand Canyon. They go onto describe; “When large amounts of water are moved through a river channel, large rocks and boulders are carried too. These rocks act like chisels, chipping off pieces of the riverbed as they bounce along.”Isn't that how life feels at times? Trials come our way like a flood followed by doubts, discouragements, and despair chipping away at our faith causing us to lose our footing. In Psalm 73, Asaph begins; “Surely God is good to Israel, to those who are pure in heart. But as for me, my feet had almost slipped; I had nearly lost my foothold.”The cause of Asaph's struggle was seeing how those who love Jesus suffer while those whose worship and love are for themselves seem to prosper. It is a real and raw question – if we have found favor in the Lord's sight, why then is life so dang hard? The thing that lifts us up out of the flood and sediment that follows is to gaze on our Shepherd. He is our sanctuary, He is our strength, He is near and He is good. How wonderful it is to know that our faith may falter, our hope may dim and our strength may fail, but God is steadfast, His love is unfailing, His grip is strong. Jesus alone is able to keep us from falling and to present us before His glorious presence without fault and with great Joy. Jude 24-25Let us shift our gaze onto the Comfort and Care of our Shepherd who promises us mercy and grace to help us in our times of need.
