To Know Christ and Make Him Known
shares insight on the life of David and his daily grind of mistreatment despite of his effort to live a godly life. Listen with us as Pastor Rick Miller shares from this wonderful psalm the Christ-like attitude that every believer in the Lord Jesus Christ do in times of being wronged despite of doing what is right.
23 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters.
3 He restores my soul.
He leads me in paths of righteousness
for his name’s sake.
4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies;
you anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
all the days of my life,
and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord
forever.
The vast of the heavens, the planets, the stars, their size and distance declares the existence of a Creator. Join us in listening as Pastor Rick Miller shares from God’s Word how God speaks and how he makes it plain to all mankind His existence.
The Law of the Lord Is Perfect
To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.
1 The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above1 proclaims his handiwork.
2 Day to day pours out speech,and night to night reveals knowledge.
3 There is no speech, nor are there words, whose voice is not heard.
4 Their voice goes out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world.In them he has set a tent for the sun,
5 which comes out like na bridegroom leaving his chamber,and, like a strong man, runs its course with joy.
6 Its rising is from the end of the heavens, and its circuit to the end of them,
and there is nothing hidden from its heat.
7 The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple;
8 the precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is pure,enlightening the eyes;
9 the fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever;
the rules of the Lord are true, and righteous altogether.
10 More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold;
asweeter also than honey and drippings of bthe honeycomb.
11 Moreover, by them is your servant warned; in keeping them there is great reward.
12 Who can discern his errors? Declare me innocent from hidden faults.
13 Keep back your servant also from hpresumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me!
Then I shall be blameless, and innocent of great transgression.
14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight,
O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.
To wait, not to complain but wait patiently in the Lord for answers. A very strong and encouraging message from Psalm 13:1-6. Join us in listening to Pastor Rick Miller as he shares a psalm that David wrote as a response during a time of hardship and uncertainty.
