Today was a horrific day.. and I want to explain why, no matter what your political ideology, this is a tragedy for you!  I'm going to do so through yesterday's and today's 'Our Daily Bread' devotionals.. for these two day's passages tell an unbelievably timely story of the unity that SHOULD exist, as well as teach us what's desperately needed as we move forward as a family.. and as a country..
May we all search for ways to comfort Charlie's family as well.  I pray this message helps.

Hold onto your hats!  We've got a long one for you today!  The historical, very important Psalm 78.  Today's episode will begin with a brief message from Matthew telling a little bit about this journey and thanking everyone who's been involved.  We'll then have Psalms 77 and 78 read out as we continue this long, yet very soothing trek through all 150 chapters.  (Can't wait til 119!  Might have to do that one in two separate episodes!)

What a life!  We're just steadfastly pressing forward each day!  We love you all so much and thank our listeners for being here.. we see you in Australia, Singapore and the Netherlands!  Wow.. I never thought someone on the other side of the globe would hear my voice FROM INSIDE THESE PRISON WALLS!  Glory be to The King of Kings and Lord of Lords for His great mercy and grace toward us!  Today we are doing Psalms 73 through 76!

Going straight into worship today, we begin with 69, crying out for The Lord's salvation!  We see in this Psalm a desire for the wicked to be destroyed.. but let us focus on the essence of evil, the essence of wickedness being destroyed.  Let us all pray for those who hurt us, forgive as Christ has forgiven us, and press forward to victory.  The Psalms will continue from 69 through chapter 72 (one of my favorites)!
Thank you my sweet Lady Wisdom.. for all you are.. and all you do!

Please join Matthew for a brief opening prayer to cast away our anxieties and then enter with us into Psalms.  Following along in your Bibles (Matthew uses the Complete Jewish Study Bible by David Stern), please join us for Psalms chapters 64 through 68.
We will see God's victory on full display in our lives!  You must believe it and receive it!  We live to serve, and we love you all! :)

This series is meant to inspire faith.  I've been told that there should be more commentary that educates people on the various worship songs, but I hope you'll check out prior episodes for deeper edification, and continue listening closely.. for there will always be edification coming from The Holy Spirit as He speaks through me.  Even if there are detractors and oppressors in our lives, we must press forward in faith.. we must continue to do the truly GOOD work we've been sent here to do.  Psalms 61-63 today with some added commentary on life.

It has been quite a while since I've had the opportunity to bring you all these life giving Words.. the most satisfying verses to be spoken.  I'M BACK! :)
When we look at the corruption that saturates our politics across the globe, or the ever present struggles of humanity, we ought to look for solutions.. AND TO TRANSITION OUR LIVES from being part of the problem to part of the solution!  Join us for Psalms 57 through 60!
(Special thanks to Ms. Wisdom - I've come to love you dearly.  Thank YOU!  I couldn't do this without you.. and you mean the world to me!)

Returning after a long hiatus, Matthew breaks down the events of this day, including the awful events in Minneapolis..  There is no guarantee of future episodes, no timeline for the return to the 'What We Really Need' series.. but for now, love has restored the inspiration in him.. and Isaiah 52 has much to say!
God bless you all and thank you for joining us! :)

What a whirlwind week!  Let's focus on GOODNESS!  I want us to step away from the tragic news and step into the Word of God!  Join us for THE Way, Truth and Life as we continue progressing through the Book of Psalms!  For today's episode, we'll be worshiping together with chapters 49 through 56! (minimal commentary) If we want to have a better future, we've got to be righteously engaged in the Spiritual Warfare that's all around us!

As we move through this episode, we're joined in worship by the 'street quartet' of dogs in the neighborhood!  It is our 10 month anniversary today!  We've been really struggling to find the time to steadily put out new episodes for you all, but that's just been God's will.. and that's the will I want to be done!  This episode comes at the PERFECT TIME as we go from Psalms 45 through 48!  Matthew breaks down a lot about the spiritual versus material / eternal versus temporal in between chapters.  We must have a Godly perspective if we want to experience the best blessings God has in store for us.  Enjoy!
