Sermons on Psalms (Page 7)

The Siege Mentality

Psalm 48 We look at an antidote to a defensive and fearful attitude in the church, as we see the strength, beauty and glory of the Church, which is her God.

Jesus Christ’s Triumphant Kingdom

Psalm 2 We meditate on this Psalm and rejoice in the truths it contains, not least of which is the certain triumph of the kingdom of Christ in this world. In the light of this, it is foolish to continue to resist Jesus’ claims on our lives.

Be Still and Know That I am God

Psalm 46 As we are at the threshold of a New Year and none of us can know what difficulties and dangers it may hold for us, we are reminded Who is our God. He is not some powerless, regional „deity„ but rather the Lord of hosts. He is the One who has always been
