All Things New (Psalm 98)
September 3, 2023 • Brad Jones • Psalm 98
In Psalm 98, we see a song of joy. Over and over in scripture, especially in the Hebrew songbook called the psalms, God’s people would rehearse the goodness of God by remembering what they had been through and what God brought them out of. But this Psalm has a forward pitch. It doesn’t spend much time reflecting backward, but it is calling us to see something ahead of us, where God has promised to make all things new. When we have a vision of what God will do, it gives us a confidence to live a life of joy in the here and now.
Praying with Trust (Psalm 23)
August 13, 2023 • Brad Jones • Psalm 23
Psalm 23 is a psalm where David is talking to God with trust. David is using imagery that is very familiar to him. When we first encounter David in the Bible as a young man, in 1 Samuel 16, he is keeping the sheep. As a shepherd, David knows what it means to care for the sheep and he is able to draw from his experiences as a shepherd to understand the many ways that God is caring for him.
