Psalm 24 Worksheet

When studying the Psalms we need to remember that the Psalms were written to be ____________ by a congregation. When we see questions and answers in Psalms, we can picture a leader singing the question and the choir singing the response.

The King of Glory’s ___________________ includes everything and everyone V. 1-2

Why is everything and everyone on earth under the King’s Dominion?

Because He is the _______________________ of All!

Getting ourselves ready for __________________ at The Temple V. 3-6

Verse 4 gives 4 expectations of would be worshippers –

A clean life in _________________ Clean hands

A holy ______________________ Pure heart

Stays away from idols Has not lifted up his soul to an idol

Keeps his ____________________ Nor sworn deceitfully

Romans 3:23

If what it takes to be able to go to God is doing all of those things well 100% of the time, I ain’t gonna get to see God, and no one is going to get to see God.

That doesn’t mean the standard is bad at all – For those who fall short before salvation it reveals our need of a Savior, because we don’t measure up.

Matthew 5:48 Romans 3:24 2 Corimthians 5:21

We still fall short of these perfect expectations after salvation, but when we get saved we seek to _________________ these standards through the power of the Holy Spirit.

The __________________________ March to the Temple V. 7-10

These may be the words that Israel sung when the Ark was brought to Jerusalem through Jerusalem’s gates. 2 Samuel 6:12-15.

It also makes you think of Jesus riding the donkey through Jerusalem’s gates!

Revelation 3:20

Believing is Seeing

Read John 20:24-31 Believing is seeing Let’s Pray!

Thomas doubts because he hasn’t personally seen the Risen Christ V. 24-25

We do know that because Thomas missed “church” (the Greek word means assembly) on Resurrection Sunday he missed encountering the Risen Christ.

If everyone who has ever lived insisted on physically seeing Jesus alive like Thomas does here, the only ones who ever became Christians would have been the 500 disciples who saw Jesus alive before He went back to Heaven.

“For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” -Luke 19:10

Thomas sees Jesus Christ alive and believes V. 26-28

The defining mark of knowing Jesus down here is not physically seeing Him but having the peace with God that He brings us!

The rest of us must believe before we get to personally see Jesus V. 29-31

The Incomparable Jesus Christ

Hebrews 1:1-3

One Solitary Life

God spoke in the _________________ through His multiple prophets V. 1

Various ways = what an ______________________

1 Peter 1:10-12

Any reading of the Old Testament shows the anticipation and the __________________ that Messiah is coming.

Genesis 3:15 Genesis 49:10-11 Deut. 18:15

Micah 5:2, 4 Isaiah 9:6-7a Isaiah 53:6, 10, 12

Know therefore and understand that from the going forth of the command to restore and build Jerusalem until Messiah the Prince, there shall be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks...and after the sixty-two weeks Messiah shall be cut off, but not for Himself… -Dan. 9:25-26

483 years times 360 day calendar = 173,880 days.

March 4, 444 BC + 173,880 days = March 29, AD 33 (Triumphal entry), when Passover lambs were brought to Jerusalem for Ap. 3rd Passover.

God speaks in the ________________ through His unique Son V. 2-3

John 1:3

3. Jesus is the _____________________ of God’s glory

Colossians 1:7

6. Jesus made ______________________ for our sins

Tetelestai – It is finished!

What was finished?

__________________ it would take to create new life in sinners like you and me, and uphold that salvation forever!

The Power of an Indestructible Life

Christ died for our sins as the perfect sacrifice, but His resurrection from the dead testifies that He is our eternal High Priest. Because He lives, He is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through Him.

Read 1 Corinthians 15:12-23 The Power of an Indestructible Life Let’s Pray!

Christ died for our sins as the perfect sacrifice, but His resurrection from the dead testifies that He is our eternal High Priest. Because He lives, He is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through Him.

This past Wednesday our Jewish friends began celebrating the week long Festival of Unleavened Bread. It is Actually 3 festivals in one: Passover, Unleavened Bread, and Firsfruits.

“Rabbi Berekiah said in the name of Rabbi Isaac, ‘As the first redeemer (i.e, Moses) was, so shall the latter Redeemer be.”

During the third day of the 3-in-1 Spring Festivals of Israel, the Lord’s acceptance of the firstfruits by the Lord is an “earnest” or pledge on His part that there will be a full harvest!
