Podcasts about Psalm 88

Have you ever experienced a season of absolute despair? A time when you wondered, “Will life ever get better?”Many of the writers of the Psalms of lament wondered the very same thing. They wrote from places of deep pain and despair—and maybe some of you can relate.This Sunday, we'll take a look at two Psalms: Psalm 88 and Psalm 89, read by Kelly Manker. At first glance, these Psalms can seem almost bipolar, but together, they represent the tension of the Christian life.We all go through chapters of life that feel like Psalm 88—chapters marked by absolute despair. Yet those moments don't invalidate the unfailing love and faithfulness of God that we see in Psalm 89.Join us as the Psalmist shows us that we can be honest with God about the struggles of life while also reminding us that His unfailing love meets us right there in the middle of them.After the message, we'll celebrate the unfailing love of God together through communion.--WebsiteFacebookInstagramSunday SetlistSunnybrook App (ios)Sunnybrook App (Google)Connect with us!How can we pray for you?

Eugene Peterson wrote, "Most Christians for most of the Christian centuries have learned to pray by praying the Psalms. The Hebrews, with several centuries of a head start on us in matters of prayer and worship, provided us with this prayer book that gives us a language adequate for responding to the God who speaks to us." In this series, we will consider how the Psalms teach us to worship and pray. The Psalms are a rich array of reflections on God's character, power, love, and activity in the world. They are also reflections of what it means for us to know, trust, and follow God. Written within the collection of Psalms, are words of praise, cries of help, expressions of anguish and of joy. How do we see our lives reflected in the words of the Psalms? How do the Psalms lead us to a deeper understanding of God enriching our worship of Him? How do the Psalms inform and guide us as we pray? This week, Christy Davis explores grief and grieving through the lens of Psalm 88. Note: Some of the lyrics from this week's song meditation might be difficult to hear clearly so we have included them here: Psalm 88 by Poor Bishop Hooper oh god of my salvation  i cry out day and night may my prayer come now before you would you listen to my cry for my soul is full of troubles and death it draws near with no strength i'm like the slain in the grave whom you no longer remember  darkness is my only friend in the darkest places and the deeps your wrath lies heavy upon me you have overwhelmed me with your waves i am trapped and i cannot escape my eyes grow dim in sorrow every day i call to you lord i open up my hands do you work wonders for the dead do departed rise to praise you does your love come from the grave are your wonders known in abbadon or good where those forget? darkness is my only friend oh why do you hide your face from me close to my demise since i was a kid your wrath your assaults all surrounding i suffer your horrors i'm desperate darkness is my only friend

Psalm 88 - Luke Rerekura - 12.07.26 by Wollongong Baptist Church

We examine the deep lament and unwavering faith expressed by the psalmist in Psalm 88, exploring how he maintains a persistent dialogue with God despite experiencing profound suffering, silence, and feelings of abandonment. Fr. Assisi Saldanha reflects on how these cries mirror the vicarious suffering of Jesus, ultimately offering a perspective on how personal pain can be transformed into a means of building up the faith community.

Fr. Assisi Saldanha, explores the profound distress and abandonment expressed in Psalm 88, characterizing it as one of the saddest psalms that confronts the silence of God in the face of human suffering. The reflection invites believers to maintain their faith and honesty with God, even during periods of deep personal darkness and unanswered prayer.

Pastor and president of the Beloved Community Aaron Dailey shares a great word about the theme of Lament in the Psalms today. Admittedly he's new to lamenting, but with that brings fresh perspective to an important aspect of our prayer lives. He teaches us four important things about lament rooted in Psalm 88. 

Preacher: Michael Warren

A Psalm of abandonment, full of questions without any attempt at resolution, this Psalm presents a heart-rending, honest portrayal of someone in the midst of deep difficulty. Combined with the lamenting tones of the Irish tune ‘Bean Dubh a Ghleanna,' this song holds a space for the most forsaken experiences of humanity, while continuing to retain a relationship with the God to whom it asks these questions.Continue your reflections with the accompanying journal, which includes further questions for reflection and some invitations to prayer and practice.Paid subscribers receive a free journal PDF, or you can purchase a paperback versionVisit the Celtic Psalms website for scores/books, mp3s, CDs, and videos for God of My SalvationFind out more about the Habits for the Spirit course: an 8-week online course exploring habits and daily spiritual practices to promote wellbeing in body, mind, and spiritFollow Kiran's monthly reflections on Bless My FeetPsalms for the Spirit is a reader-supported publication.

Sunday at Victory Family Church with Pastor Adam Starling. Links/Notes: https://www.victoryfamily.church/summerpsalms

On Sunday June 28, Pastor Rusten preached on Pslms 88. Join us for our livestream of our 9:30 AM services on Facebook live. 

This week we continue with our summer series “Disputing with God” with Psalm 88, the Bible's most unrelenting lament psalm. The speaker cries out to God from the depths of the pit, lamenting about the pain, suffering, and isolation that makes their life seem like a walking death, even accusing God of being the one who has caused them to suffer. And yet in this dispute, there is no response from God. Night and day the speaker cries out, from morning until night, every day since their youth—and God simply does not engage. We think of all the ways this psalm can speak to the pain of our own lives, giving voice to that which we might fear to voice before God. And we wrestle with what it means to dispute with a silent God, who is simply nowhere to be found.

Times of calamity, distress, and despair will, at times, overcome our souls, but throughout it all Christ remains our anchor, giving us the greatest assurance.

The Lord sends Samuel to tell King Saul that he is to wipe out the Amalekites completely, because they opposed Israel when God brought them out of Egypt. King Saul decides that he will wipe out everyone and everything, except for King Agag of the Amalekites, and, you know, all the good stuff. You can't destroy the good stuff, right? Because of this disobedience, the Lord tells Samuel that he regrets making Saul king. Samuel rebukes King Saul, and proceeds to take care of business where Saul failed to do so. After this, the Lord sends Samuel to Jesse of Bethlehem, because he has selected one of his sons to be king in Saul's place. 1  Samuel 15 - 1:02 .  1 Samuel 16 - 8:50 .  Psalm 88 - 13:51 .  :::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

A 2 am broadcast offering thoughts on Psalm 88

The writer of Psalm 88 struggles to find any hope in his situation and feels as if God is completely against him. Is this a biblical way to respond to a difficult situation? Is there any hope in times of darkness?

https://square.link/u/UHRU92rp - Donate HereToday's reading takes us into one of the heaviest chapters in all of Scripture—Psalm 88—a psalm that doesn't resolve neatly… doesn't lift quickly… and doesn't pretend everything is okay.This is raw sorrow. Deep anguish. A soul crying out from the lowest place imaginable.Often called the saddest psalm in the Bible, Psalm 88 gives voice to something many people feel but don't know how to say: “What do I do when it still hurts… when it still feels dark… when nothing seems to change?”And yet, even here—there's something powerful.The writer never stops crying out to God.Morning. Night. Day after day. Through confusion. Through pain. Through silence.In this episode, we walk through the weight of this psalm and uncover the quiet, unshakable truth beneath it: Even when you feel abandoned… you are not without access to God.If you're in a hard season… if your prayers feel unanswered… if your soul feels heavy—this chapter reminds you:You can still cry out. God is still listening. And even in the darkest place… He is still there.
