Pastor David Deutsch gives a message on Psalm 84 emphasizing the transformative power of gathering in God's presence, where worship, prayer, and singing allow believers to experience spiritual renewal and strength. It highlights the unique nature of time in worship, where moments in God's courts transcend ordinary time, becoming a foretaste of eternity. Ultimately, it celebrates the incomparable joy and blessing of being in communion with God and His people, declaring that even one day in His presence surpasses a thousand elsewhere.
1 How lovely is your dwelling place, O Lord of hosts! 2 My soul longs, yes, faints for the courts of the Lord; my heart and flesh sing for joy to the living God. 3 Even the sparrow finds a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, at your altars, O Lord of hosts, my King and my God. 4 Blessed are those who dwell in your house, ever singing your praise! Selah 5 Blessed are those whose strength is in you, in whose heart are the highways to Zion. 6 As they go through the Valley of Baca they make it a place of springs; the early rain also covers it with pools. 7 They go from strength to strength; each one appears before God in Zion. 8 O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer; give ear, O God of Jacob! Selah 9 Behold our shield, O God; look on the face of your anointed! 10 For a day in your courts is better than a thousand elsewhere. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of wickedness. 11 For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord bestows favor and honor. No good thing does he withhold from those who walk uprightly. 12 O Lord of hosts, blessed is the one who trusts in you! The Holy Bible: English Standard Version (Wheaton, IL: Crossway Bibles, 2016), Ps 84:1–12.

We're halfway through the Book of Psalms and we're hitting peak poetry.To the psalmist, one day in God's courts is worth a thousand elsewhere.He would sooner work as a humble temple guard than live in luxury with his enemy.Adoration of God is the order of the day, interspersed with the occasional request to God to pour out his fury on any nations that do not worship him.As ever, these songs continue to sing to their own tune.Written and produced by Chas BayfieldMusic by Michael Auld and Jon Hawkins MusicCover art by Lisa Goff
Longing and joy come together when our hearts long for our King, anticipated as the shield and anointed one in this psalm. Around us we see evil and darkness. We have been given this psalm to equip us to deal with dark times.

Message from Elder Ronnie Loudermilk on September 29, 2024
Ever wonder if God is depriving his people of anything good? Today Emma Dotter is joined by Watermark Student's graduate Anna Sharpe to talk through Psalm 84. If we are wondering if God is withholding good from us, we have to first define what good is. We see throughout the Bible, that true joy and happiness comes only from abiding in Jesus. The best gift God could ever give us is the gift of His Son, and that can never be taken away. We can follow the psalmist's example of being honest with God about how we are feeling and praise Him for what we know to be true of His character. Additional Scripture Referenced: 1 John 4:19 – "we love because he first loved us" Matthew 7:9-11 – Sermon on the Mount If you'd like to connect with Watermark's ministry for college students, check out Rally Kickoff tonight: https://www.watermark.org/events/6140-rally-fall-kickoff To hear more of Anna's story, check out her previous episode on the podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/join-the-journey/id1600151923?i=1000633334783 Grab a Join The Journey Journal for Psalms: https://a.co/d/7rt0H3g Got kids?

You may or may not go to church looking for God's presence. You may or may not feel like you need God to reveal God's self to you in some way, but God's presence, and God's power define the church. The church, amid all its flaws and humanness, is like a big neon sign from the God saying, “If you want to find me, you can find me here.” Even today, the church is the house of the Lord. SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts:Your Daily Prayer: https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-prayer/Your Daily Bible Verse: https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-bible-verse/ Full Transcript Below: Longing for the Church “My soul longs, indeed it faints for the courts of the Lord; my heart and my flesh sing for joy to the living God.” Psalm 84:2 When you were young, did you ever find yourself giddy with excitement when going somewhere? Maybe it was a theme park, maybe it was grandma's house, maybe it was a long trip, but internally you were fueled with joy and excitement. Like a kid before Christmas, you couldn't fall asleep - and if you did, you dreamt of what you would do when you got there. Have you ever had that experience on your way to church? Every block you pass on your way makes your heart leap into your throat; you are filled with excitement. I am willing to be not many of us have had that experience. But this is exactly what Psalm 84 calls us to. Psalm 84 centers around a pilgrimage to the Temple. For the psalmist, there was no greater thing than approaching the house of the Lord. The joy that is felt is not because the temple was beautifully adorned. The psalmist has a divine longing to be in the temple because the temple was the dwelling place of God - and to be in the temple I was to be in God's presence. What is more, to be in God's presence was to experience the wonder of God's divine activity. Do we have a similar understanding when we step through the front doors of our local churches today? Or do we view the church only in human terms, as a place to sing religious songs, to hear scripture read, to touch base with faithful friends? If we view the church only through the lens of what we do, we might fail to recognize what God does in our midst. Because the church is the place where we gather to meet the God who created, redeemed, and sustains us. And God is present in the church. In many ways, contemporary society has lost an understanding of sacred space. Life with God has become so individualized, that we tend to downplay the importance of the church as a place of God. A common quip is 'I don't need to go to the church, I can worship God as much on the golf course as anywhere.' And that's true, but do you? Yes, God is everywhere, even the psalmists understood that, but scripture always holds that there is something special about God's house. Psalm 84 begins 'How lovely is your dwelling place, O God;' how perfect, how wonderful, how magnificent is the place where God sets God's glory. See, for the psalmist, if God's presence was in the temple in some magnificent, unique, yet indescribable way – then there was no other place that he would rather be. We come to church to be in God's presence and to open ourselves to divine activity. Because God is not just some passive observer. God never naps in church. God is always moving, always active. Whatever the denomination, whether you meet in a building with a spire or in someone's home, whether the church is liturgical, charismatic, this is the nature of the church that we are invited to enjoy. Intersecting faith and life Psalm 84 declares that the Lord bestows favor and honor and does not withhold good things. Are you needing good things in your life, a good resolution, a good report, a healing? Are you needing a reinvigoration of life, or a sense of protection from whatever you may be going through? It may sound odd, and it may sound countercultural, but have you tried going to church? After all, what is the church, if it is not the place where we gather to meet God's loving and grace-filled presence, and to receive good things from God's hand. Of course, understanding God's presence and activity doesn't mean that things will turn around in a moment. Psalm 84 isn't a poem of prosperity declaring that God will make you healthy, wealthy, and glad all your days. No, life with God is a journey. The psalmist says “Blessed are the ones whose hearts are set on pilgrimage.” The ones who receive God's activity are those who long to move closer to God, even when the path is ruff and the hill is steep, and even in those times that you think that the journey isn't worth it. We are called to keep reaching out to God. Because rough times never discount God's presence or activity. And through the church, God always invites us to God's self. You may or may not go to church looking for God's presence. You may or may not feel like you need God to reveal God's self to you in some way, but God's presence, and God's power define the church. The church, amid all its flaws and humanness, is like a big neon sign from the God saying, “If you want to find me, you can find me here.” Even today, the church is the house of the Lord.
