Introduction
Many things God helps us escape from
1. Bible Examples
QUESTION: Examples of people in the Bible who escaped
2. Personal Experience
QUESTION: What has God helped you escape from so far?
3. Future Hope
QUESTION: What helps us stay escaped?
Conclusion
1. And can it be that I should gain
An int’rest in the Saviour’s blood?
Died He for me, who caused His pain?
For me, who Him to death pursued?
Amazing love! how can it be
That Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?
Amazing love! how can it be
That Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?
2. ’Tis mystery all! The Immortal dies!
Who can explore His strange design?
In vain the firstborn seraph tries
To sound the depths of love Divine!
’Tis mercy all! let earth adore,
Let angel minds inquire no more.
’Tis mercy all! let earth adore,
Let angel minds inquire no more.
3. He left His Father’s throne above,
So free, so infinite His grace;
Emptied Himself of all but love,
And bled for Adam’s helpless race:
’Tis mercy all, immense and free;
For, O my God, it found out me.
’Tis mercy all, immense and free;
For, O my God, it found out me.
4. Long my imprisoned spirit lay
Fast bound in sin and nature’s night;
Thine eye diffused a quickening ray,
I woke, the dungeon flamed with light;
My chains fell off, my heart was free,
I rose, went forth, and followed Thee.
My chains fell off, my heart was free,
I rose, went forth, and followed Thee.
5. No condemnation now I dread;
Jesus, and all in Him, is mine!
Alive in Him, my living Head,
And clothed in righteousness Divine,
Bold I approach the eternal throne,
And claim the crown, through Christ my own.
Bold I approach the eternal throne,
And claim the crown, through Christ my own.

"Questions about Psalm 124", Malcolm Cox
I'm preaching on Psalm 124 this coming Sunday, 17 May 2020.
I'm looking for a bit of help with the preparation.
I would be really interested in your thoughts. Thanks for helping me out. If you would like to join as on Sunday, drop me a line and I'll send you the link.
“A song of ascents. Of David. If the LORD had not been on our side—let Israel say— if the LORD had not been on our side
when people attacked us, they would have swallowed us alive
when their anger flared against us; the flood would have engulfed us,
the torrent would have swept over us, the raging waters
would have swept us away.
Praise be to the LORD,
who has not let us be torn by their teeth. We have escaped like a bird
from the fowler’s snare;
the snare has been broken,
and we have escaped. Our help is in the name of the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.” (Psalm 124:0–8 NIV11)
