Psalm 18 is David's song of love and praise to Yahweh, his rock, fortress, and deliverer, who heard his cry from the cords of death, came in thunderous power to rescue him from Saul and all his enemies because He delighted in him, rewarded his covenant faithfulness, equipped him for victory, and showed steadfast love to His anointed and his offspring forever.

The right knowledge of sin

Psalm 19 teaches that God discloses His glory through both the wordless witness of creation and the perfect, life-giving Law of Scripture, which together lead the worshipper to confess hidden sin and pray that every word and thought be acceptable in His sight.

Point 1: Let Justice Flow Point 2: What Does This Mean for America Today? Point 3: A Preacher's Warning Point 4: What Does This Mean for the Church Today Point 5: Christ-Centered Connection The sermon challenges believers to move beyond empty religious rituals toward a genuine pursuit of God and social justice.

Have Mercy upon me, O God!

We continue our study of select Psalms and will look at Psalm 13 and 14 today.

In this teaching, we revisit Psalm 6 briefly and then move to Psalm 13. In Psalm 13, we see the suffering king cry out: I. A Cry of Anguish to the Covenant-Keeping God (1-2) II. A Petition for Relief (3-4) III. An Affirmation of Trust and Contentment (5-6)

The sermon examines the profound impact of Pope Innocent III and the Fourth Lateran Council on medieval Christianity, highlighting key doctrinal developments such as transubstantiation and the mandatory annual confession for all believers. It details the formalization of the seven sacraments and the condemnation of heretical groups like the Waldensians and Albigensians, alongside the expansion of monastic orders like the Franciscans and Dominicans. The narrative further explores Innocent's authorization of crusades, including the controversial Fourth Crusade against Constantinople and the violent campaign against the Albigensians. Finally, the discussion transitions to Martin Luther's 95 Theses, identifying the abuse of indulgences as a primary catalyst for the Protestant Reformation and the subsequent shift toward the authority of Scripture alone.

We will do a quick review of Psalm 1 & 2 and then continue our series in Psalm 6. In Psalm 6, David, overwhelmed by physical and emotional anguish under God's discipline and the threat of enemies, desperately pleads for mercy and healing, then rises in confidence that the Lord has head his weeping and will turn back his foes in shame.
