The Blessed
and the Perishing
Psalm 1
Psalm 1:1–6 presents a vivid contrast between the life of the
righteous who walk with God and the destruction awaiting the
ungodly.
|
Psalm 24 is a short psalm of only ten verses, but it is filled with
powerful truths about ownership and stewardship. It declares that
the earth belongs to the Lord and that everything in it is His. This
psalm calls us to recognize God’s ownership of all things—our
possessions, our bodies, our souls—and to respond with faithful
stewardship, holy living, and anticipation of His return.

Psalm 22
A
Messianic Prophecy of the Cross
The 1st of 5
Sermons in the Psalm 22 Series
Psalm 22 is one of the most vivid and detailed prophecies
of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Written by David around 1000 BC, it
describes events that would not occur until a thousand years later. It
begins with the anguished cry of abandonment and ends with a triumphant
declaration of salvation reaching to the nations. |
The Crucifixion of Christ
The Horrors of the Cross
The 2nd of 5
Sermons in the Psalm 22 Series
The crucifixion of Jesus stands at the center of
God’s redemptive plan. More than an act of cruelty, it was the
willing sacrifice of the Son of God for the sins of mankind. At
Calvary, love, justice, and prophecy converged to provide salvation
for all who believe and obey. |
Psalm 22
A Web of Prophecy Across Scripture
The 3rd
of 5
Sermons in the Psalm 22 Series
Psalm 22 stretches across centuries as prophecy woven
through Scripture. David’s lament points forward, echoed by prophets
and poets in many ages. From Isaiah to Zechariah, from Jeremiah to
the psalms of lament, one Spirit speaks with one voice: the
righteous sufferer is the promised Messiah and Savior. |
Psalm 22
The Cry of Abandonment
The 4th of 5
Sermons in the Psalm 22 Series
Psalm 22 opens with a cry that pierced history and
reached its fulfillment at Calvary. David voiced anguish that seemed
like abandonment, but Jesus bore true forsakenness as He carried our
sins. This lesson explores the depth of that cry, revealing sin’s
horror and God’s unmatched love in Christ. |
From the Cross to the Crown
The Triumph of Psalm 22
The 5th of 5 Sermons in the Psalm 22 Series
Psalm 22 moves from despair to glory. What began with
the cry of forsakenness ends in the triumph of resurrection and
universal praise. This final lesson reveals Christ proclaimed among
His brethren, worshipped by the nations, and served by future
generations who declare: the work is finished. |
Psalm 33 Why We Should Praise God
Psalm 33 is a beautiful reminder of the importance of praising
Jehovah. The psalmist gives four clear reasons why God deserves our
worship. Unlike many psalms, this one has no superscription—we don’t
know who wrote it or the circumstances behind it. But what we do
know is enough: it is entirely focused on why we must rejoice in the
Lord and lift up His name. It begins with a call to worship, then
unfolds into four powerful reasons why God deserves our praise. Each
reason is a sermon in itself, showing us who God is, what He has
done, and why our response must be worship. |
Psalm 34 A Psalm of Thanksgiving
Psalm 34 is one of David’s most beloved psalms of thanksgiving. It
was written during a time of fear and danger, when David pretended
madness before the Philistines in order to escape Saul (1 Samuel
21). From that desperate situation, David lifts a psalm of gratitude
and trust in God. This psalm is divided into two sections: first,
David’s personal thanksgiving for God’s deliverance, and second, a
teaching segment where David instructs us on what kind of
worshippers God desires. It reminds us that God listens, provides,
protects, and ultimately redeems His people. |
God Is Our Refuge and Strength
Psalm 46
Psalm 46 declares that God is our
refuge, strength, and ever-present help in trouble. This sermon
explores the psalm’s historical background in Hezekiah’s day, its
assurance of God’s presence among His people, and its fulfillment in
Christ under the New Covenant. It calls believers to trust God’s
sovereignty, rest in His peace, and honor Him as our fortress in
every storm. |
Psalm 65 teaches us that thanksgiving should be daily, not seasonal.
In this psalm, David reminds us to thank God for forgiveness,
creation, and His provisions, helping us live in gratitude every
day. |
Psalm 72 paints a powerful picture of the reign of the Messiah, a
reign unlike any earthly rule. Unlike the flawed judgments of men,
Christ reigns in righteousness, justice, mercy, and everlasting
dominion (Psalm 72:1–19). |
My Soul Is Troubled Psalm 77
All of God’s
children go through times of suffering. They have mental and
spiritual trials. Some of these may seem overwhelming. Our spirit
is depressed and our soul is heavy. Life may get us down and we
become discouraged. This psalm teaches
us that the good man is not exempt from life’s troubles but that the
God of all grace provides a way to lead us out of our troubles.

Tell Of God’s Wonderful Works (Psalm 105)
Introduction:
each of us here today should recognize we all benefit from all the
great deeds the Lord has done. This will serve as motivation and
encouragement to live as a member of God's family. Psalm 105 is a
“historical Psalm” that depicts the Lord's dealings with his people,
especially those described in the 1st 5 Books of the Bible.
Text: Psalm 105 |
God’s Steadfast
Love
Psalm 106
“Hallelujah” That’s
how Psalm 106 both begins and ends. Praise the Lord! This Psalm well
illustrates God’s steadfast love for His people in the face of their
repeated unfaithfulness.
|
Psalm 122
This beautiful psalm of old touches upon
one of man’s greatest and deepest needs – the worship of
Jehovah God. This psalm is in a section of fifteen
psalms, [120 – 134], which has an ancient ascription, “A
Song of Ascents.” Many students of the Scriptures
believe these were sung by the traveling Israelites as
they ascended to Jerusalem for worship. |
Our
Great and Awesome God
Text: Psalm 139
This psalm is
sometimes called “the crown of the Psalms.” David here paints a
portrait of God probably surpassed in beauty. A tribute to Jehovah
God in which David presents the makeup of God and his
characteristics for all humanity to see. The rider pictures him as
all-knowing, all-seeing, all-powerful, and finally, all-holy. |
Fullness of Joy
By meditating upon who the Lord is and all that He does for us, we can
experience the “fullness of joy” and “pleasures forevermore.” (Psalms
16:11 ESV)

The God We
Can Trust
Psalm 146
People often put their
hope in political leaders, powerful institutions, or wealthy influencers.
Yet the Bible warns that such hope is always misplaced. Psalm 146 is a psalm
of praise that redirects our trust from man to God. It contrasts the
weakness of human rulers with the eternal power, justice, and compassion of
the Lord. The psalm teaches us where true hope is found and why only God is
worthy of complete trust. |
Psalm 150
concludes the Psalter with a six-verse call to praise that answers where,
why, how, and who. It is not a slogan to repeat; it is a life to live. The
psalmist begins and ends with “Praise the Lord”—“Hallelujah”—signaling that
the fitting response of God’s people to His works and His character is
wholehearted, continual worship. This psalm also corrects common confusions:
praise is not driven by moods, novelties, or spectatorship; it is the
deliberate, God-centered engagement of the assembled church and the daily
rhythm of the individual saint. |
