Our Eyes Look to the Lord

The Psalms of Ascent

June 11, 2023 • Dave Becker • Psalm 123, Psalm 121

Psalm 121, 123 // On our pilgrim journey to God we all need help. We are regularly beset by weaknesses, obstacles, temptations, frustrations, and more. Where we turn for help in our time of need and where we fix our eyes in the days of our journeying shows us who we are and who we trust. In Psalm 121 & 123 the psalmist shows us through songs of honest lament and honest confidence that we look to the Lord, who has made the heavens and the earth and who is enthroned in the heavens, for our help. The Lord tirelessly keeps watch over his people, protects his people in his mercy, and delivers his people safely to himself now and forever.

Bless the Lord!

August 20, 2023 • Drake Osborn • Psalm 134

Psalm 134 // We were created to tell the truth about God, to bless God by honoring and praising him for his perfect blessedness. The Gospel of Jesus answers all of our objections to this great purpose, and brings us into the Great blessings of God for us.

Unity From Above

August 13, 2023 • Dave Becker • Psalm 133

Psalm 133 // In Psalm 133 we learn that the unity of God's people comes down from God as a gift of his grace. Unity is the resting pulse of the Church as each of us has been joined to Christ as sons and daughters, and to one another as brothers and sisters, by faith. The unity of the church is not the accomplishment of the church, but a revelation of God's anointing and life giving grace.

Zeal for God's House

August 6, 2023 • Drake Osborn • Psalm 132

Psalm 132 // On our journey to God, how do we know our zeal to come and worship God will not be met with disappointments or rejection? Because we stand on the work and promises of Jesus, the son of David.
