00:15 Hello, and welcome to His Words are Life.
00:17 I'm Kelly Mowrer and thank you for joining with me today, 00:20 to read in the book of Psalms together. Let's pray before we 00:22 start. Dear Lord thank you so much that you have always been 00:29 a song in the night for each of us, and that in praising you, we 00:34 can come into your presence. So now as we read these praises, 00:37 of David, be with us so that we may know and hear the lesson 00:43 you have for us in these words. We love you and thank you 00:46 for loving us. Amen. We're beginning in Psalm 22, 00:50 This is the King James Version. To the chief Musician upon 00:56 Aijeleth Shabar, A Psalm of David. 00:58 My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far 01:07 from helping me, and from the words of my roaring? 01:10 O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; 01:14 and in the night season, and am not silent. But thou art holy, 01:20 O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel. 01:23 Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst 01:28 deliver them. They cried unto thee, and were delivered: 01:31 they trusted in thee, and were not confounded. But I am a worm, 01:36 and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people. 01:40 All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip 01:46 they shake the head, saying, He trusted on the Lord 01:49 that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he 01:52 delighted in him. But thou art he that took me out of the womb: 01:57 thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother's breasts. 02:01 I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my 02:06 mother's belly. Be not far from me; for trouble is near; 02:11 For there is none to help. Many bulls have compassed me: 02:16 strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round. 02:20 They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a 02:23 roaring lion. I am poured out like water, and all my bones 02:28 are out of joint; my heart is like wax; it is melted in the 02:32 midst of my bowels. My strength is dried up like a potsherd; 02:37 My tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into 02:41 the dust of death. For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of 02:45 the wicked have enclosed me: they pierced my hands and my 02:50 feet. I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me. 02:54 They part my garments among them and cast lots upon my 02:59 vesture. But be not thou far from me O Lord: O my strength, 03:05 haste thee to help me. Deliver my soul from the sword, 03:09 my darling from the power of the dog. Save me from the lion's 03:14 mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns. 03:17 I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the 03:22 congregation will I praise thee. Ye that fear the Lord, praise 03:27 him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, 03:32 all ye the seed of Israel. For he hath not despised 03:37 nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he 03:41 hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard. 03:46 My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: 03:51 I will pay my vows before them that fear him. The meek shall 03:56 eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the Lord that seek him: 04:01 your heart shall live for ever. All the ends of the world shall 04:06 remember and turn unto the Lord: and all the kindreds of the 04:10 nations shall worship before thee. For the kingdom is the 04:14 Lord's: and he is the governor among the nations. 04:17 All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: 04:22 all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: 04:26 and none can keep alive his own soul. A seed shall serve him; 04:33 it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation. 04:36 They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness 04:40 unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this. 04:45 Psalm 23. A Psalm of David. The Lord is my shepherd; 04:53 I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: 04:58 he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: 05:04 He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's 05:08 sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of 05:13 death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; 05:17 thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 05:21 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: 05:26 thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. 05:31 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my 05:36 life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever. 05:41 Psalm 24. This is the King James Version. 05:47 A Psalm of David. The earth is the Lord's, and the 05:51 fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. 05:55 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon 06:00 the floods. Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? 06:04 or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands, 06:10 and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, 06:14 nor sworn deceitfully. He shall receive the blessing from the 06:19 Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation. 06:23 This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek 06:28 thy face, O Jacob, Selah. Lift up your heads, O ye gates; 06:34 and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; 06:38 and the King of glory shall come in. Who is the King of 06:43 glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty 06:48 in battle. Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye 06:53 everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. 06:57 Who is this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is the King of 07:03 glory. Selah. - Psalm 25. A Psalm of David. 07:09 Unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul. O my God, 07:16 I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies 07:21 triumph over me. Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: 07:26 let them be ashamed which transgress without cause. 07:31 Shew me thy ways, O Lord; teach me thy paths. Lead me in thy 07:37 truth and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; 07:41 on thee do I wait all the day. Remember, O Lord, thy tender 07:47 mercies and thy loving kindnesses; for they have been 07:50 ever of old. Remember not the sins of my youth, 07:56 nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me 08:02 for thy goodness' sake, O Lord. Good and upright is the Lord: 08:07 therefore will he teach sinners in the way. The meek will he 08:11 guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way. 08:15 All the paths of the Lord are mercy and truth unto such 08:21 as keep his covenant and his testimonies. For thy name's sake 08:27 O Lord, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great. 08:31 What man is he that feareth the Lord? him shall he teach 08:36 in the way that he shall choose. His soul shall dwell at ease; 08:41 and his seed shall inherit the earth. The secret of the Lord 08:45 is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant. 08:49 Mine eyes are ever toward the Lord; for he shall pluck my feet 08:55 out of the net. Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; 08:59 for I am desolate and afflicted. The troubles of my heart 09:04 are enlarged: O bring me out of my distresses. 09:07 Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins 09:12 Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me 09:17 with cruel hatred. O keep my soul, and deliver me: 09:21 Let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee. 09:25 Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee. 09:31 Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles. 09:36 Psalm 26. A Psalm of David. Judge me O Lord; for I have 09:44 walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the Lord; 09:48 therefore I shall not slide. Examine me, O Lord and prove me; 09:54 try my reins and my heart. For thy lovingkindness is before 09:58 mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth. I have not sat with 10:04 vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers. 10:07 I have hated the congregation of evildoers; and will not sit 10:11 with the wicked. I will wash mine hands in innocency: 10:15 so will I compass thine altar, O Lord: That I may publish with 10:20 the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works. 10:25 Lord, I have loved the habitation of thy house, 10:29 and the place where thine honor dwelleth. Gather not my soul 10:34 with sinners, nor my life with bloody men: In whose hands is 10:39 mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes. But as for me 10:43 I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful 10:48 unto me. My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations 10:53 will I bless the Lord. Psalm 27. 10:58 And this is the King James Version. 11:00 A Psalm of David. The Lord is my light and my 11:05 salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of 11:10 my life; of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked, 11:15 even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, 11:19 they stumbled and fell. Though an host should encamp against me 11:25 my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, 11:30 in this will I be confident. One thing have I desired 11:36 of the Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the 11:41 house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty 11:45 of the Lord, and to inquire in his temple. 11:48 For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: 11:54 in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set 11:59 me up upon a rock. And now shall mine head be lifted up above 12:04 mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his 12:08 tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing 12:13 praises unto the Lord. Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice 12:17 have mercy also upon me, and answer me. When thou saidst, 12:23 Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, Lord, 12:28 will I seek. Hide not thy face far from me; 12:32 Put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; 12:36 leave me not, neither forsake me O God of my salvation. 12:40 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the Lord 12:46 will take me up. Teach me thy way, O Lord, and lead me 12:51 in a plain path, because of mine enemies. 12:54 Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: 12:57 for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe 13:02 out cruelty. I had fainted, unless I had believed to see 13:06 the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. 13:08 Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen 13:14 thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord. 13:18 Psalm 28. This is the King James Version. 13:22 A Psalm of David. Unto thee will I cry, O Lord 13:28 my rock; be not silent to me: lest, if thou be silent to me, 13:33 I become like them that go down into the pit. Hear the voice of 13:37 my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up 13:40 my hands toward thy holy oracle. Draw me not away with the wicked 13:44 and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to 13:47 their neighbors, but mischief is in their hearts. 13:49 Give them according to their deeds, and according to the 13:52 wickedness of their endeavors: give them after the work of 13:55 their hands; render to them their desert: 13:58 because they regard not the works of the Lord, 14:01 nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them, 14:05 and not build them up. Blessed be the Lord, because he hath 14:09 heard the voice of my supplications. 14:11 The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, 14:16 and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; 14:20 and with my song will I praise him. The Lord is their strength, 14:24 and he is the saving strength of his anointed. 14:27 Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: 14:30 feed them also, and lift them up for ever. 14:34 Please join me again next time to continue reading the Psalms 14:38 of God. Goodbye. |
