Psalms (117)
  1. Long ago, the people of Israel began to sing words of encouragement to each other in times of distress. In their songs, the psalms, are three Hebrew words that provide stability for us. They are more than just words—each one encapsulates the way of God with his people. They serve as helpful handholds in times of stress and upheaval. The words are these: רָפָה (be still), קָוָה (wait), and שָׁמַר (watch).
  2. Psalm 13 is a story of sorrow and joy, confession and absolution, it declares that God has answered all our trouble.
  3. Psalm 55 instructs us to call out to God and look to His sure promises when sin and darkness assails us.
  4. Is there any assurance when it doesn't feel like God is with you?
  5. The Psalmist speaks about how God delivers the poor and needy.
  6. Psalm 38 shows a confession of sin that seeks and trusts in God alone forgiveness.
  7. In Psalm 22, we see our pain and suffering imputed to Christ on the cross as he confesses the words of the Psalm.
  8. Crumbling and forsaken, a cry goes out to God.
  9. Psalm 31 delivers the promise that God is our deliverer and steadfast refuge.
