hit those share buttons and invite somebody else as many
(06:29):
as you can invite them to this platform on tonight,
that they can also hear a word from the Lord,
by permission of the Holy Spirit. Tonight we're going to
be coming from the book. The writing and the vision
of the book of psalms Psalm sixty one, Psalm writing
(06:52):
sixty one, and it's short, so we're going to read
it in its entirety. And when you come on the line,
please make sure you bring your sword with you so
you can read along with me, so you can have
your word to refer back to once we get off
of the Bible study Psalm fix the one and the
(07:16):
word reads this vile hear my cry, O God, a
tin unto my prayer from the end of the earth.
Will I cry unto thee when my heart is overwhelmed,
Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
(07:40):
For thou hast been a shelter for me and a
strong power from the enemy. I will abide in Thy
tabanacker forever. I will trust in the covert of thy
wings that say load thou, O, God has heard my vowels.
(08:04):
Thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear
thy name. Thy will prolong the king's life and his
years as many generations. He shall abide before God forever.
All prepare mercy and truth which may preserve him. At
(08:28):
verse eight, which is the last verse, so will I
sing praise unto Thy name forever that I may daily
perform my vows. Thus is the reading of Psalm sixty
one in its entirety, by permission of the Holy Spirit. Tonight,
(08:53):
our topic of discussion we are going to talk about
is security in God. Security in God. Now. The author
of this particular writing and it is David. And when
(09:15):
we look at this writing in context, this song is
supposed to have been written while David was fleeing from
his son Absalom, after Absalom had killed his brother Amnon.
(09:36):
David here found himself in a very emotional state of mind.
He was feeling fearful, he was feeling weak, and he
was wanting to die, but he knew that that was
(09:57):
not an option for And I'm sure at some point
in time in our lives we may have been experiencing
in some things in our life and we just felt like,
what shall I do. I've done everything, I've tried everything
that I knew how to do, and nothing works in
(10:19):
what else is there left to do? What other option
is there for me? And we may have been at
that point where David was. But David real that wait
a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, death is
not the way. Our depth is not an octioner for me.
We better know tonight that we have other options around
(10:43):
our circumstances. So David chose prayer instead, requesting God's divine
protection and that he would leave him to a safe
place as well as preserve his status as king. So
(11:10):
the Lord can bring us through and hotor of every situation,
no matter how difficult, and allow us to be sustained
even as we go through, and we can even be
at a better place when we come out. Metaphorically, David
(11:30):
used the analogy of a mother's hen protecting her baby
chicks with outstretched wings as a description of God's protection. Therefore,
because David had history, how many got history with God?
(11:54):
Because he had history in his relationship with God, because
he had faith, and because he trusted in Him for
his security. Tonight, as we are challenged to go through
this discussion, we will see how and why having faith
(12:22):
is exemplified in this discussion. On tonight, David presented us
with some requests to God, and we will see how
God accommodated those requests because of the relationship that he
(12:46):
had with David. So, now as we go ahead and
move into our discussion of the pathogest, when we look
at Versus one and two. There again for those of
you that may not have your sword, your bible, your
(13:07):
word with you got rid of it again and verses
wanting to read again. Share my cry So here here,
here David's distressing. Here, share my cry, o God, a
tent unto my prayer from the end of the earth.
(13:27):
Will I cry unto thee when my heart is overwhelmed,
Lead me to the rock that is higher than all Right.
Hearing these two passages, David made three requests to the Lord,
(13:53):
and he was dependent on God's faithfulness to him to
hear his petitions and respond to his needs. And there
is no need for us to trouble the Lord's patience.
And we're not going to go to him in expectation
(14:14):
that he is gonna respond to our requests. David realized
that his security rested in the power of all might
to God. See, we can thact that way when we
already have history with God where he has already brought
(14:38):
us through and out of some things. We can look
back on where He has already brought us from and
know that if he brought me through, that he will
get me through this. So David was relying on the
history that he already had with God, that God was
(14:58):
going to bring him through this thing situation that he
was confronted with concerning his son out so long his requests,
was this the first one? He said, here my chrit.
He was personalizing these things, even had to go to
(15:19):
guard and prayer bout everybody else. But sometime when we're
burning down, sometimes we have to go to the Lord
and put our self before God and petitioning the Lord
for what's going on in our lives. So here, David,
because of what he was confronted with, he needed to
know that you still got me. I need to know
(15:41):
that my security is still in the relationship that you
and I have because I can't deal with this thing
that's going on between me and my son. This boy
is rebelling against me because I did not do the
outcome that he wanted me to do. You know, it
(16:02):
did not happen the way that he wanted me to do,
the outcome He wanted me to do the thing that
he wants it because I did not conform to his wishes.
Now he has rebelled against me in turn against me,
and now even though he's my child, he has become
(16:23):
my enemy. So I but I need to know God
that you still gotten me and my relationship with you
is still to occur because I can't handle this on
my own. So here he was pleading in prayer with God.
But except the saying, Lord, I need your help. I
(16:45):
can't do this. And many times we want to ask
God for help. We want to do things on our own,
and then with a mess up, then we want to
go to God and that God that fits it. No
do that. David go in the beginning to God. Lord,
you see the situation. Lord, I need your help to
fix this. Then the second requests he meant to the Lord,
(17:09):
he said, attend unto my prayer. So again this was
a personal thing with David. He wouldn't He didn't go
to somebody who he couldn't help him. He went to
the one who he had a thoughted relationship with, and
more than just having a thought relationship, someone who he
(17:30):
knew had already delivered him out. There are some very
difficult situations. So he said, I need you to attend
unto my prayer. What is he saying? My petitions are
being made unto you Lord. You see, when David was
(17:51):
being sought after by his enemies, and again hear of
his son. After long have now become a part of
the enemies. He consulted the Lord. He didn't go to flesh,
he didn't go to somebody else who couldn't provide the anthter.
He didn't take any chantess. He needed some immediate relief.
(18:14):
So he consulted the Lord for his security and his deliverance.
We look in Psalm Cheveny versus one, two and three.
There David prayed unto the Lord these words. He said,
(18:37):
make haste, oh God, to deliver me. Make haste to
help me, Oh Lord, Let them be ashamed and confounded
that seek after my soul. Let them be turned backward
(18:59):
and put to confusion that desire my hurt. Let them
be turned back for a reward of their shame that
same our house. So what was going on here? Dad
(19:20):
was saying, Lord, I need you to begin to hurt.
I need you to come, and I need you to
come quick, because I don't understand. You know, I'm caught
between the cat twenty two, a rock and a hard place.
With this situation between me and my own son, this
child that came from my bowels, I can't understand why
(19:40):
he turned against me this week, and now he's sinking
my life. He wants to take my life, and I'm
to the point that I'm so hurt by it that
I even want to die. But death is not an
option for me. I got a relationship with you, and
I have a secure place in you. So I need
to get to that that place of security so that
(20:02):
my son don't take my life and that I don't
have to take his life. I don't need to happen
between me and my son. But I know I have
security in you, he said. But when the enemy comes
after me, I need you to go after them. Oh,
(20:22):
because I need you to fight my daughter and especially
this one, because this is what I know that I
cannot fight. David, he sought, Sextu with me, what am
I talking about? A place of safety and security from
(20:43):
his own son, Afteralon, who had turned against him and
now he has become what was called an enemy to
his father. Then David went on. He said, lead me
to the rock that is higher than I. David said,
(21:07):
I I don't have no power, I don't have no
control over this situation. David understood his weakness, and he
understood his an ability to fight this battle against his
(21:28):
son's rebellion on his own. God, I can't fight this.
He's re better against me, But I can't go up
against him. I don't want to hurt my own child.
I cannot go up against him in this rebellious shape
that he is in. This boy wants to take my life.
(21:50):
David understood the necessity of having a power greater than
his natural power us to forge this war on his
be health. Too many times we go into battle on
(22:11):
our own, and when we failed, when we get all
beat up, when it never beat us down to the ground,
almost that we can't get back up. Now we want
to save a lord. Where were you? Well, No, we
never consulted the Lord, because hey, we consulted the Lord.
The Lord would have reminded us, be still and know
(22:34):
that I am God. Stands still and see the salvation
of the Lord. He would have reminded us, this battle
is not yours, it is mine. Let me fight for
you and I will give you the dicery. But no,
sometimes we have this need to make a point with people.
So we're going to go to battle for our faith.
(22:56):
Why because people can see us fighting. No, we need
to learn how to do spiritual battle. Why because we
rest a lot with flesh and blood. We don't have
to put up our dukes. We don't have to fight physically.
We need to learn how to fight spiritually. And we
need to allow God to go before us and let
(23:18):
him fight the battle. But we will win the war. See,
David knew if he was going to, if he was
going to or if he had any oaths of winning
this battle, he needed a place above himself, understanding, above
(23:42):
his secular wisdom, and greater than is human wisdom to
guide him. We would like to think that we have
plenty good sins, especially if we've been a cardist, if
we've been a seminary, we got them degrees behind our name.
We got some little letters behind our name. But we
(24:06):
need to understand that is going to come a time
that our secular wisdom is not gonna work for us.
We need a power greater than ours. We need a
wisdom that have a greater understanding and more knowledge than
what we have to guide us into the places and
the thing that we need to confront. But David understood that,
(24:32):
he recognized that he needed the power of God to
lead him to that rock, to that rock and I'm
not talking about a rock that to smoke. Okay, I'm
not talking about this a rock that you can go
down the Mirdle Beach or some beach to other and
you can fand on that rock. But he needed the
(24:52):
power of God to lead him to that rock of security,
a surified and that rock is the Lord Jesus Christ.
We need that same rock in our life. We need
the foundation, a solid foundation, that rock, and his name
(25:15):
is Jesus in our life. That is our sure foundation
in our life. In Psalm one versus one and two,
when David again found himself all strengthened out, and again
(25:36):
after the enemies was after him, let me tell you
one thing about David. David would mess up. And David
knew how to pray. David was a warrior, but David
was also a worship of earth. David knew how to
give you to the presence of the Lord and give it.
Also knew how to praise God and give God thanks
for the goodness that the Lord showed towards him. So
(25:58):
that Ps. One Versus one and two, there give it proclaimed,
here's security in God. When he said I will he assuredly,
he said, I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills.
(26:20):
From whence cometh my health. My health cometh from the
Lord which made heaven and earth. And if we notice,
he said assuredly, he said, my help come here, comeil
a et. On the end, he said, not just one
(26:43):
time when I need the Lord. Every time I need
him my help keep coming. He's gonna come every time
I need him, every time I've called on his wife,
because that's where my safe place is at. And every
time I need him, he's gonna show up. Why Because
he said, why you are yet calling me? I will answer,
(27:07):
you know. So it's not let the Lord got to
come from nowhere to get to us, because the spirit
of the Lord toll us on the inside of us.
So he don't have to come from another side of town,
he don't have to come from another country, he don't
have to come from another nation. Why, because the spirit
of the Lord dwells on the inside of us. That's
why he can get to us so quickly. And the
(27:30):
audacity of us does not taking advantage of calling on
the name of Jesus. Where he is that close that
he dwells on the inside of us. The spirit of
the Lord dwells on the inside of us. David recognized.
He said, I will melt up mine eyes to his.
(27:54):
I know we might help come from He said, I
don't have time. I'm running no people. I'm not running
to my friends. I'm not gonna run and get on
a telephone. I don't have no time for no gods up.
I don't have time to be having no conversations right now.
I don't have no time to be going to no
parties there. But right now, I got to go to
(28:16):
where my health come from, and am I come from
the Lord. That's the safe place where I need to
be right now. It's in the presence of the Lord.
I got to get to my secure place in God
so I can get me some answers. That's the way
that we need to be thinking. Where we are faced
(28:38):
with trials and triple relations, and we know that the
things that we are going through can't nobody bring us
no relief. When nobody can't help me, all they can
do is sit down and talk to me. They can
tell me if I was you, I do that. No,
you can't tell that. Don't help me because you're not me.
Where when I'm hurting and I'm broken and I need
(29:00):
and I need something in the change in my life
right now. I need a right now move in my life.
And only God can do that. He's a now father.
He moves eleven and one says now faith. That's why
we need a now faith, a now faith of faith
(29:20):
that can move God either now. Our God is now.
He moves right now. He don't have to wait till
the marrow. You don't have to wait the next week.
He don't have to wait the next month. He don't
have to wait the next year. Even though he moves
on his own time. If he chooses to, he can
move in thee Now. That's the kind of father we serve, why,
(29:44):
That's why our security is in him. He knows better
that we know when we need what we come before
him with. That's why we need to get into that
secure place with him, because he knows better than we
know about ourself, what we need, when we need, and
(30:05):
how much of it we need. And we can go
on moving on the verse three. There again, verse three
David praises God for his wonderful asks and his faithfulness
unto him while providing divine protection from his enemies. Very
(30:31):
verse three, David say this for Thou has been a
shelter for me and a strong power from the enemy.
It's like, yeah, I got many good friends and they're
good to me, you know. But you know, Lord, right now,
(30:52):
they can't cover me right now what I need. They
cannot be a shelter from me, and they cannot provide
for me for what I need right now. Proverbs eighteen
and ten reminds us of what real refuse and security
(31:13):
is in time of trouble and when being pursued by
the enemy. See, we need a sure place of refuge
when we really need to steal away and be by
ourself so we can just get before God. It just
(31:34):
led our crazy self out on the line before guarded,
and with all that baggage that we still as, we
can get before God and just tell it like it is.
Because see, let me tell you, we might have good friends,
but let me tell you one thing. Sometimes we can't
lay all that garbage out before our friend because sometimes
(31:55):
they can't handle us. Sometimes they can't handle the baggage
that we got in our suitcase. They can't handle that
when we start unpacking their suitcase. Sometimes at the best
of our friends and they can be saving and think
the fighting filled with the horle to go shoot, but
sometimes they can't handle us in our suitcase. So we
need to get in that secure safe place when we
(32:16):
get before God, because he understands. Yeah, we're human that
we save and we think the fact that we fill
with her are going we still killing. We are not infallible.
Only God is infallible. He's the only one that don't
make no mistakes. Man, Now we're not giving nobody no
license and not to go out and mess up with
(32:37):
in the event that we do. God understands. But sometimes
our friends can't handle us if we make a mistake,
and we can make an error, then they get a
little shaky. Why because they're depending too much on us
to be perfect people. Nobody is perfect. We are still
in this flesh. That's why we need a secure place
(32:58):
in God. So when we who are imperfect people who
serves a perfect God where we do imperfect things, we
can go to our secure place in God with our
imperfect self and lay our imperfect self before God and
just tell them all about it and say, Lord, I
(33:21):
need you, I need your help do something with me
and my imperfect self. Help me do that, David, I
need You'll help me. Sometimes it ain't the enemy that's
after us. Sometimes we are our own enemy. Deliver me
from our own self. Wow. So when we'll be pursued
(33:43):
by the enemy, like David was being pursued by the enemy,
they knew exactly where to go. He went before God
the name of the Lord. This is what he says
that Proverbs eighteen and ten. The name even that the
name of the Lord is a strong power, the right,
(34:07):
the riter, not the unsafe, not the unwrit the righteous
running into it, and is safe mean it is a
cure the name of the Lord. He gives. David gives
God thanks for two acts of kindness here, one for
(34:31):
sheltering him, meaning for provision of covering over his head,
and the second thing for defending him, which was his
strong power, being a shield for him from the attacks
of his endness. See the name of Jesus. There is power.
(34:55):
There is power in the name of Jesus. And we
know that song. There's power in the name of Jesus
to break every chain. And don't we don't need to
We don't need to get it. Tw instant to think
that because we are saved, sanctified, and filled with the
Hoodigos that we don't still have some chains on us
(35:17):
as long ever end as flesh. We still got some
chains that need to be broken. Maybe more have been
broken off of our lives than the average person, but
we still got some chains that need to be broken.
But the power is in the name of Jesus to
break those shames off of our lives. That is our
(35:40):
secure places, in the power of the name of Jesus,
that's our strong chow. And they was giving facts, giving
unto the Lord for providing him with shelter and for
defending him, being his strong power from the attacks of
(36:03):
the enemy, to show his gratitude. He saw even sometimes
the Lord is so good to us, He's so kind,
he's so forgiving, and he is so merciful, and God
is so faithful. Oftentimes we just think that God got
to do that for us because we said, well, I'm saving,
I belong to him. God got to do this for me. No,
(36:24):
God does not. He does it because he wants to,
because of the goodness of his heart, because of his
loving kindness, and because of his tender mercies. God does
these things. But he don't have to do anything for us,
but he will showed gratitude for God's faithful ness unto him,
(36:50):
David committed himself to making some I will some I
will resolutions in his jealousness for our praying. Well, now,
of course he was praying in faith, and he was
making these eyes will on resolutions expecting a response from God.
(37:18):
And again, as we already afore said, there's no need
of aring guard patients that we are not going to
go before God praying and partition in God without any expectation.
That's the whole point of going to the God. When
we go to him, we need to go in expectation,
believe in that when I go to God, I expect
(37:40):
you get an answer from the Lord. If we go
to our friends, we go with expectations that they're going
to be able to do for us the thing that
we approach them for. So, if we can believe and
have faith in our friends, or in our palents, in
our you know, in our uh you know, work over
workers on you know, if we can have expectations that
(38:03):
they're going to meet our expectations, why in the world
don't we have those same aspectations by faith that if
I go before God with a petition that he is
gonna he's secure enough or I'm secure enough in him
that he is gonna respond and give me an assort
for what I take before him. But David had to
(38:23):
save that he expected a response from God for the
resolution that he was going to say to the Lord
very fold. He said, I will this back day that
the pro rocket that they you know, he he just
said this thing, he said unapologetically. He said, I will
(38:48):
abide and by abaknaka whatever. He went on to say,
I will trust and a convert of thy wings. That
means in the secret place or in the security of
thy wings. And then if we look back up he
(39:10):
versed too. David promised, I will pray for the ends
of the earth when our heart is overwhelmed. Even when
my heart overwhelmed me, I'm gonna pray because Lord, I'm
secured in you. So no matter what's going on in
(39:31):
my life, I am not gonna stop serving you. I'm
gonna keep my commitment to you even when I'm overwhelmed.
No matter what going on in my life, I'm not
gonna let it be greater to me over in my
life than the relationship that I had with you. Too.
Oftentimes we forget that we got a relationship with the Lord.
When trouble comes our way, we have to tell the
(39:53):
devil grutts, here that is in me, and here that
is in the world. And now I'm not gonna let
what you bring, or i will shatter who lives each
side of me. And then in verse eight he gave
it promise, I will sing praise unto your name, not
(40:14):
just when you bless me, not just on Sunday morning,
not just on Tuesday night doing transfer on live Bible
radio show, not just on Wednesday night when I go
to Bible study, or whatever night of the week when
I'm on to lie, or at my church whenever my
church have Bible study. But he said, I will sing
(40:35):
praise until your name forever, no matter what's going on
in my life, I'm gonna give you praise. They would
say that song thirty four on his I will bless
the more that all time, and His and His name
to forever be in my mouth. His praise itself forever
be in my mouth. So we we got to always
(40:56):
have a praise on our lips when it comes to
the Lord. Again, David had come to realize the trust
of knowing he could rest in the assurance of being
secured by the power and promises of God. He made
God his dwelling place of security and his refuge. What
(41:22):
about us tonight? Have we made God our security and
our refuge? Is God our dreading place? Well? In Song
ninety one Versus one and two, there it says he
that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High,
(41:43):
shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will
say the Lord, he is my refuge and my fortress,
my God. In him will I trust. And then we've
moved down to birth. Not in that same chapter there
it says, because thou hast made the Lord, which is
(42:08):
my refuse, even of both eyes thy habitation, and verse ten,
there shall no evil befall thee neither shall any plague
come nigh thy dwelling. First of all, Psalm ninety one
(42:30):
is a sum of protection. Wow. It was written by Moses.
Some try to claim and give the credit to David,
but it said that he was written by Moses to
comfort the Israelites while in the wilderness and they were
going through the forty year cursed, also to assure them
(42:56):
of God throughout the ages of this pro again in
their earthly pilgrimage. He was talking about God, their defender
and protect us from their enemies and all evil and
evil unto this date. He is our defender and he
(43:21):
is our protector. He is our Jehovah, me safe, our abander.
That's our defender and our protects us. He is our
cover end. He protects us from the enemy and all evil.
Verse five. Now David expresses his satisfaction and trust in
(43:46):
the past records of service God had rendered unto him.
Because of David's relationship with God, he was not shaken,
but stood us a cure in his faith in the
power of God and the provisions or damed for his life. Therefore,
(44:11):
David proceeds here to outline more mercyful acts of God's
love and kindness towards him as he seeks refuge and
security from the enemy. The scripture reason for thy old
(44:34):
God has heard my violes. Thou hast given me the
heritage of those that fear thy name. While I can
just imagine, if you will allow my imagination just a roam.
(44:55):
Deavid glimpsing into the future of the text at Isaiah
fifty four and seventeen Queer it seeds no weapon that
is formed against THEE shall prosper. And every toe that
shall rise against thee in judgment Thy chef un them.
(45:18):
This is the heritage of the servant of the Lord,
and their righteousness is of me. Saveth the Lord. This
particular passage predicts the nation of Israel that they will
become righteous and they will be the servants of the Lord.
(45:40):
Guess what they put this bully in your ear. This
also applied to us. This is also our security in
the Lord. Because no weapon that's bornes against us, he's
not going to prosper either. He never said that the
weapon was not going to reform, but he said that
(46:03):
if it forms against you, that it will not prosper.
When we look at verse six, the verse reads, God
will prolonged the king's life and his years as many generations. Now,
(46:25):
the heritage that David had been promised by God was
a royal dynasty. See, that's why we better learn how
to trust God and have faith and believe the word
of the Lord. He tells us to put him in
remembrance of the promises that he made us, because the
(46:46):
God don't lie. God's words are immutable. If he said it,
it had to come to pass no promise, No words
that the Lord ever speak from his mouth will ever
fall to the ground. It will perform that wherever where
(47:09):
he says it, because it can't go back to him.
Boyd it got to do whatever he says, because he
don't lie. The heritage that David hadn't again had been
promised was a royal dynasty. Therefore, David was praying here
that he might be granted a prolonged life and that
(47:33):
his sons remained on the throne from generation to generation forever.
As we remember, God made a covenant promise with David
in Second Samuel, chapter seven, verses twelve and thirteen, and
(47:55):
there he promised the establishment of his kingdom by his son.
And here how it reads.
Speaker 4 (48:05):
And when thy Dad's be fulfilled, the guard talking to David.
And when thy dad be fulfilled, and thou shall sleep
with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after these,
which shall proceed out of thy bowels.
Speaker 3 (48:27):
And I will establish his kingdom. And then verse thirteen,
he shall build an house for my name, and I
will establish the throne of his kingdom forever. Now I
need you listen very carefully. David's original throne was only temporary.
(48:55):
His original throne was inherited by his son Solomon. Thereafter,
after he passed away, the eternal throne of David will
be seated and established by God himself. God will establish
(49:16):
the eternal throne for the son that he was talking
about now, Jesus Christ. But then it was looking for
the prophesied coming Messiah. God's promise was fulfilled in Solomon,
who inherited the arranmal throne of David. And then the
(49:43):
fire fulfillment will be in the Messiah Jesus Christ, who
shall reign on the throne throughout eternity according to through that.
According to Isaiah, Chapter nine, verses six and seven says this,
for unto us a child is born, unto us a
(50:07):
son is given, and the government shall be upon his shoulders,
meaning the authority to rule over all the earth, and
his name shall be called. These names were not attributed
to following, but these names were attributed to becoming Messiah.
(50:32):
He shall be called Wonderful Counsel, the Mighty God, the
everlast Thing of Father, the Prince of Peace, of the
increase of his government and peace. There shall be no
end upon the throne of David. All right and upon
(50:57):
his kingdom to order it and to establish it with
judgment and with justice from in force and even forever.
The zeal of the Lord of Hoasts will perform this.
(51:18):
Here we're looking at where God established the authority. He
established the authority with the coming Messiah to be the ruler,
which will fulfill the covenant promise that he made with
David for the royal dynasty to lad throughout eternity, and
(51:40):
it will be secured by God himself set up that
throne to be given to the son Jesus Christ. Wow,
the zeal of the Lord of Hoast will perform this.
This referred to the future fulfillment of the assured promise
God covenant with David to give him a royal dynasty forever.
(52:05):
Here reed, David rested in the security of God to
bring it to past, beginning with Solomon and ending with
Jesus Christ. Charlomon's reign was temporary. However, there shall be
no end to the rule and government of Jesus Christ.
It will last throughout a turn our team verse seven.
(52:31):
Then Psalm sixty one and seven. Things he talking about
King Jesus, he shall abide before God forever. All prepare
mercy and truth which may, which may preserve him. In
(52:51):
respect to his royal limage, David now refers to Jesus
Christ being in before God through our imtunity, He alone
is our safety, our security, our dignity and delight. In him.
(53:14):
In Jesus we are man to sit in evenly places
as true believers. As it is said by firstly people,
long live the King. Now we as believers, we should
be saying, let mercy and truth. Let mercy and truth
(53:38):
preserve our Lord and savior, who is our King, Jesus
the Christ. We as believers, shall not have us because
we are kept by the divine mercy and truth from
which Jesus Christ provides us with his eternal love and
(54:00):
immutable faithfulness. Lamentations Chapter three, verses twenty two and twenty
three says this, it is of the Lord's mercy that
we are not consumed because his compassions fail. Not there
are new ever, and morning. Great is thy faithfulness. You see,
(54:25):
the mercis secures us because of his faithfulness, not because
of our faithfulness. Unto him, God is gonna be merciful.
He's gonna be faithful whether we are faithful or not.
Because that is just who God is. And verse eight,
(54:45):
Now David bows to praise the name of the Lord,
to remain in the security of God as he performed
his daily spiritual works are so may say this spiritual virus.
The verse reads this way, So will I sing praise
(55:08):
unto Thy.
Speaker 2 (55:08):
Name forever, that I may daily perform my violence. Devid
vowed his commitment to ever lasting Maybe he mased a
perpetual prayers unto God because.
Speaker 3 (55:27):
His prayers had been answered. He vowed to demonstrate gratefulness
because his prayers had been accepted by Jesus Christ. He prayed.
But now he vowed to say unto the Lord given
thanks unto even his name forever. David ended this psalm
(55:53):
of prayer, resting in the assurance of God's promises that
when he is consistent in walking circumspect me before God
and living daily according to the holy vowels he had made,
(56:14):
he is content and feel secure that God will render
unto him answered prist now Proverbs three and be closing
on this one. Proverbs three, five and six is a
(56:36):
good definition of security in God. I'm going to read it,
but then I want you to personalize this. Proverbs three,
five and six said, trusting the Lord with all thy
heart and leading, noting too thine own understanding in all
(56:57):
thy ways, acknowledge him and he shall direct thy path.
But then I want you to read this thing, and
I want you to personalize this says, I will trust
in the Lord with all my heart, and I will
not lean unto my own understanding in all my ways.
(57:21):
I will acknowledge him and he will direct my past. Wow.
And if you personalize this thing, this is total safe
and trust for total security in God. Wow. This is
(57:44):
our Bible study discussion on tonight. We just want to
thank the Lord for every one of you who have
been on the line to now. And I believe that
I believe somebody's heart was changing me. If somebody's life

(06:29):
as you can invite them to this platform on tonight,
that they can also hear a word from the Lord,
by permission of the Holy Spirit. Tonight we're going to
be coming from the book. The writing and the vision
of the book of psalms Psalm sixty one, Psalm writing
(06:52):
sixty one, and it's short, so we're going to read
it in its entirety. And when you come on the line,
please make sure you bring your sword with you so
you can read along with me, so you can have
your word to refer back to once we get off
of the Bible study Psalm fix the one and the
(07:16):
word reads this vile hear my cry, O God, a
tin unto my prayer from the end of the earth.
Will I cry unto thee when my heart is overwhelmed,
Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
(07:40):
For thou hast been a shelter for me and a
strong power from the enemy. I will abide in Thy
tabanacker forever. I will trust in the covert of thy
wings that say load thou, O, God has heard my vowels.
(08:04):
Thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear
thy name. Thy will prolong the king's life and his
years as many generations. He shall abide before God forever.
All prepare mercy and truth which may preserve him. At
(08:28):
verse eight, which is the last verse, so will I
sing praise unto Thy name forever that I may daily
perform my vows. Thus is the reading of Psalm sixty
one in its entirety, by permission of the Holy Spirit. Tonight,
(08:53):
our topic of discussion we are going to talk about
is security in God. Security in God. Now. The author
of this particular writing and it is David. And when
(09:15):
we look at this writing in context, this song is
supposed to have been written while David was fleeing from
his son Absalom, after Absalom had killed his brother Amnon.
(09:36):
David here found himself in a very emotional state of mind.
He was feeling fearful, he was feeling weak, and he
was wanting to die, but he knew that that was
(09:57):
not an option for And I'm sure at some point
in time in our lives we may have been experiencing
in some things in our life and we just felt like,
what shall I do. I've done everything, I've tried everything
that I knew how to do, and nothing works in
(10:19):
what else is there left to do? What other option
is there for me? And we may have been at
that point where David was. But David real that wait
a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, death is
not the way. Our depth is not an octioner for me.
We better know tonight that we have other options around
(10:43):
our circumstances. So David chose prayer instead, requesting God's divine
protection and that he would leave him to a safe
place as well as preserve his status as king. So
(11:10):
the Lord can bring us through and hotor of every situation,
no matter how difficult, and allow us to be sustained
even as we go through, and we can even be
at a better place when we come out. Metaphorically, David
(11:30):
used the analogy of a mother's hen protecting her baby
chicks with outstretched wings as a description of God's protection. Therefore,
because David had history, how many got history with God?
(11:54):
Because he had history in his relationship with God, because
he had faith, and because he trusted in Him for
his security. Tonight, as we are challenged to go through
this discussion, we will see how and why having faith
(12:22):
is exemplified in this discussion. On tonight, David presented us
with some requests to God, and we will see how
God accommodated those requests because of the relationship that he
(12:46):
had with David. So, now as we go ahead and
move into our discussion of the pathogest, when we look
at Versus one and two. There again for those of
you that may not have your sword, your bible, your
(13:07):
word with you got rid of it again and verses
wanting to read again. Share my cry So here here,
here David's distressing. Here, share my cry, o God, a
tent unto my prayer from the end of the earth.
(13:27):
Will I cry unto thee when my heart is overwhelmed,
Lead me to the rock that is higher than all Right.
Hearing these two passages, David made three requests to the Lord,
(13:53):
and he was dependent on God's faithfulness to him to
hear his petitions and respond to his needs. And there
is no need for us to trouble the Lord's patience.
And we're not going to go to him in expectation
(14:14):
that he is gonna respond to our requests. David realized
that his security rested in the power of all might
to God. See, we can thact that way when we
already have history with God where he has already brought
(14:38):
us through and out of some things. We can look
back on where He has already brought us from and
know that if he brought me through, that he will
get me through this. So David was relying on the
history that he already had with God, that God was
(14:58):
going to bring him through this thing situation that he
was confronted with concerning his son out so long his requests,
was this the first one? He said, here my chrit.
He was personalizing these things, even had to go to
(15:19):
guard and prayer bout everybody else. But sometime when we're
burning down, sometimes we have to go to the Lord
and put our self before God and petitioning the Lord
for what's going on in our lives. So here, David,
because of what he was confronted with, he needed to
know that you still got me. I need to know
(15:41):
that my security is still in the relationship that you
and I have because I can't deal with this thing
that's going on between me and my son. This boy
is rebelling against me because I did not do the
outcome that he wanted me to do. You know, it
(16:02):
did not happen the way that he wanted me to do,
the outcome He wanted me to do the thing that
he wants it because I did not conform to his wishes.
Now he has rebelled against me in turn against me,
and now even though he's my child, he has become
(16:23):
my enemy. So I but I need to know God
that you still gotten me and my relationship with you
is still to occur because I can't handle this on
my own. So here he was pleading in prayer with God.
But except the saying, Lord, I need your help. I
(16:45):
can't do this. And many times we want to ask
God for help. We want to do things on our own,
and then with a mess up, then we want to
go to God and that God that fits it. No
do that. David go in the beginning to God. Lord,
you see the situation. Lord, I need your help to
fix this. Then the second requests he meant to the Lord,
(17:09):
he said, attend unto my prayer. So again this was
a personal thing with David. He wouldn't He didn't go
to somebody who he couldn't help him. He went to
the one who he had a thoughted relationship with, and
more than just having a thought relationship, someone who he
(17:30):
knew had already delivered him out. There are some very
difficult situations. So he said, I need you to attend
unto my prayer. What is he saying? My petitions are
being made unto you Lord. You see, when David was
(17:51):
being sought after by his enemies, and again hear of
his son. After long have now become a part of
the enemies. He consulted the Lord. He didn't go to flesh,
he didn't go to somebody else who couldn't provide the anthter.
He didn't take any chantess. He needed some immediate relief.
(18:14):
So he consulted the Lord for his security and his deliverance.
We look in Psalm Cheveny versus one, two and three.
There David prayed unto the Lord these words. He said,
(18:37):
make haste, oh God, to deliver me. Make haste to
help me, Oh Lord, Let them be ashamed and confounded
that seek after my soul. Let them be turned backward
(18:59):
and put to confusion that desire my hurt. Let them
be turned back for a reward of their shame that
same our house. So what was going on here? Dad
(19:20):
was saying, Lord, I need you to begin to hurt.
I need you to come, and I need you to
come quick, because I don't understand. You know, I'm caught
between the cat twenty two, a rock and a hard place.
With this situation between me and my own son, this
child that came from my bowels, I can't understand why
(19:40):
he turned against me this week, and now he's sinking
my life. He wants to take my life, and I'm
to the point that I'm so hurt by it that
I even want to die. But death is not an
option for me. I got a relationship with you, and
I have a secure place in you. So I need
to get to that that place of security so that
(20:02):
my son don't take my life and that I don't
have to take his life. I don't need to happen
between me and my son. But I know I have
security in you, he said. But when the enemy comes
after me, I need you to go after them. Oh,
(20:22):
because I need you to fight my daughter and especially
this one, because this is what I know that I
cannot fight. David, he sought, Sextu with me, what am
I talking about? A place of safety and security from
(20:43):
his own son, Afteralon, who had turned against him and
now he has become what was called an enemy to
his father. Then David went on. He said, lead me
to the rock that is higher than I. David said,
(21:07):
I I don't have no power, I don't have no
control over this situation. David understood his weakness, and he
understood his an ability to fight this battle against his
(21:28):
son's rebellion on his own. God, I can't fight this.
He's re better against me, But I can't go up
against him. I don't want to hurt my own child.
I cannot go up against him in this rebellious shape
that he is in. This boy wants to take my life.
(21:50):
David understood the necessity of having a power greater than
his natural power us to forge this war on his
be health. Too many times we go into battle on
(22:11):
our own, and when we failed, when we get all
beat up, when it never beat us down to the ground,
almost that we can't get back up. Now we want
to save a lord. Where were you? Well, No, we
never consulted the Lord, because hey, we consulted the Lord.
The Lord would have reminded us, be still and know
(22:34):
that I am God. Stands still and see the salvation
of the Lord. He would have reminded us, this battle
is not yours, it is mine. Let me fight for
you and I will give you the dicery. But no,
sometimes we have this need to make a point with people.
So we're going to go to battle for our faith.
(22:56):
Why because people can see us fighting. No, we need
to learn how to do spiritual battle. Why because we
rest a lot with flesh and blood. We don't have
to put up our dukes. We don't have to fight physically.
We need to learn how to fight spiritually. And we
need to allow God to go before us and let
(23:18):
him fight the battle. But we will win the war. See,
David knew if he was going to, if he was
going to or if he had any oaths of winning
this battle, he needed a place above himself, understanding, above
(23:42):
his secular wisdom, and greater than is human wisdom to
guide him. We would like to think that we have
plenty good sins, especially if we've been a cardist, if
we've been a seminary, we got them degrees behind our name.
We got some little letters behind our name. But we
(24:06):
need to understand that is going to come a time
that our secular wisdom is not gonna work for us.
We need a power greater than ours. We need a
wisdom that have a greater understanding and more knowledge than
what we have to guide us into the places and
the thing that we need to confront. But David understood that,
(24:32):
he recognized that he needed the power of God to
lead him to that rock, to that rock and I'm
not talking about a rock that to smoke. Okay, I'm
not talking about this a rock that you can go
down the Mirdle Beach or some beach to other and
you can fand on that rock. But he needed the
(24:52):
power of God to lead him to that rock of security,
a surified and that rock is the Lord Jesus Christ.
We need that same rock in our life. We need
the foundation, a solid foundation, that rock, and his name
(25:15):
is Jesus in our life. That is our sure foundation
in our life. In Psalm one versus one and two,
when David again found himself all strengthened out, and again
(25:36):
after the enemies was after him, let me tell you
one thing about David. David would mess up. And David
knew how to pray. David was a warrior, but David
was also a worship of earth. David knew how to
give you to the presence of the Lord and give it.
Also knew how to praise God and give God thanks
for the goodness that the Lord showed towards him. So
(25:58):
that Ps. One Versus one and two, there give it proclaimed,
here's security in God. When he said I will he assuredly,
he said, I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills.
(26:20):
From whence cometh my health. My health cometh from the
Lord which made heaven and earth. And if we notice,
he said assuredly, he said, my help come here, comeil
a et. On the end, he said, not just one
(26:43):
time when I need the Lord. Every time I need
him my help keep coming. He's gonna come every time
I need him, every time I've called on his wife,
because that's where my safe place is at. And every
time I need him, he's gonna show up. Why Because
he said, why you are yet calling me? I will answer,
(27:07):
you know. So it's not let the Lord got to
come from nowhere to get to us, because the spirit
of the Lord toll us on the inside of us.
So he don't have to come from another side of town,
he don't have to come from another country, he don't
have to come from another nation. Why, because the spirit
of the Lord dwells on the inside of us. That's
why he can get to us so quickly. And the
(27:30):
audacity of us does not taking advantage of calling on
the name of Jesus. Where he is that close that
he dwells on the inside of us. The spirit of
the Lord dwells on the inside of us. David recognized.
He said, I will melt up mine eyes to his.
(27:54):
I know we might help come from He said, I
don't have time. I'm running no people. I'm not running
to my friends. I'm not gonna run and get on
a telephone. I don't have no time for no gods up.
I don't have time to be having no conversations right now.
I don't have no time to be going to no
parties there. But right now, I got to go to
(28:16):
where my health come from, and am I come from
the Lord. That's the safe place where I need to
be right now. It's in the presence of the Lord.
I got to get to my secure place in God
so I can get me some answers. That's the way
that we need to be thinking. Where we are faced
(28:38):
with trials and triple relations, and we know that the
things that we are going through can't nobody bring us
no relief. When nobody can't help me, all they can
do is sit down and talk to me. They can
tell me if I was you, I do that. No,
you can't tell that. Don't help me because you're not me.
Where when I'm hurting and I'm broken and I need
(29:00):
and I need something in the change in my life
right now. I need a right now move in my life.
And only God can do that. He's a now father.
He moves eleven and one says now faith. That's why
we need a now faith, a now faith of faith
(29:20):
that can move God either now. Our God is now.
He moves right now. He don't have to wait till
the marrow. You don't have to wait the next week.
He don't have to wait the next month. He don't
have to wait the next year. Even though he moves
on his own time. If he chooses to, he can
move in thee Now. That's the kind of father we serve, why,
(29:44):
That's why our security is in him. He knows better
that we know when we need what we come before
him with. That's why we need to get into that
secure place with him, because he knows better than we
know about ourself, what we need, when we need, and
(30:05):
how much of it we need. And we can go
on moving on the verse three. There again, verse three
David praises God for his wonderful asks and his faithfulness
unto him while providing divine protection from his enemies. Very
(30:31):
verse three, David say this for Thou has been a
shelter for me and a strong power from the enemy.
It's like, yeah, I got many good friends and they're
good to me, you know. But you know, Lord, right now,
(30:52):
they can't cover me right now what I need. They
cannot be a shelter from me, and they cannot provide
for me for what I need right now. Proverbs eighteen
and ten reminds us of what real refuse and security
(31:13):
is in time of trouble and when being pursued by
the enemy. See, we need a sure place of refuge
when we really need to steal away and be by
ourself so we can just get before God. It just
(31:34):
led our crazy self out on the line before guarded,
and with all that baggage that we still as, we
can get before God and just tell it like it is.
Because see, let me tell you, we might have good friends,
but let me tell you one thing. Sometimes we can't
lay all that garbage out before our friend because sometimes
(31:55):
they can't handle us. Sometimes they can't handle the baggage
that we got in our suitcase. They can't handle that
when we start unpacking their suitcase. Sometimes at the best
of our friends and they can be saving and think
the fighting filled with the horle to go shoot, but
sometimes they can't handle us in our suitcase. So we
need to get in that secure safe place when we
(32:16):
get before God, because he understands. Yeah, we're human that
we save and we think the fact that we fill
with her are going we still killing. We are not infallible.
Only God is infallible. He's the only one that don't
make no mistakes. Man, Now we're not giving nobody no
license and not to go out and mess up with
(32:37):
in the event that we do. God understands. But sometimes
our friends can't handle us if we make a mistake,
and we can make an error, then they get a
little shaky. Why because they're depending too much on us
to be perfect people. Nobody is perfect. We are still
in this flesh. That's why we need a secure place
(32:58):
in God. So when we who are imperfect people who
serves a perfect God where we do imperfect things, we
can go to our secure place in God with our
imperfect self and lay our imperfect self before God and
just tell them all about it and say, Lord, I
(33:21):
need you, I need your help do something with me
and my imperfect self. Help me do that, David, I
need You'll help me. Sometimes it ain't the enemy that's
after us. Sometimes we are our own enemy. Deliver me
from our own self. Wow. So when we'll be pursued
(33:43):
by the enemy, like David was being pursued by the enemy,
they knew exactly where to go. He went before God
the name of the Lord. This is what he says
that Proverbs eighteen and ten. The name even that the
name of the Lord is a strong power, the right,
(34:07):
the riter, not the unsafe, not the unwrit the righteous
running into it, and is safe mean it is a
cure the name of the Lord. He gives. David gives
God thanks for two acts of kindness here, one for
(34:31):
sheltering him, meaning for provision of covering over his head,
and the second thing for defending him, which was his
strong power, being a shield for him from the attacks
of his endness. See the name of Jesus. There is power.
(34:55):
There is power in the name of Jesus. And we
know that song. There's power in the name of Jesus
to break every chain. And don't we don't need to
We don't need to get it. Tw instant to think
that because we are saved, sanctified, and filled with the
Hoodigos that we don't still have some chains on us
(35:17):
as long ever end as flesh. We still got some
chains that need to be broken. Maybe more have been
broken off of our lives than the average person, but
we still got some chains that need to be broken.
But the power is in the name of Jesus to
break those shames off of our lives. That is our
(35:40):
secure places, in the power of the name of Jesus,
that's our strong chow. And they was giving facts, giving
unto the Lord for providing him with shelter and for
defending him, being his strong power from the attacks of
(36:03):
the enemy, to show his gratitude. He saw even sometimes
the Lord is so good to us, He's so kind,
he's so forgiving, and he is so merciful, and God
is so faithful. Oftentimes we just think that God got
to do that for us because we said, well, I'm saving,
I belong to him. God got to do this for me. No,
(36:24):
God does not. He does it because he wants to,
because of the goodness of his heart, because of his
loving kindness, and because of his tender mercies. God does
these things. But he don't have to do anything for us,
but he will showed gratitude for God's faithful ness unto him,
(36:50):
David committed himself to making some I will some I
will resolutions in his jealousness for our praying. Well, now,
of course he was praying in faith, and he was
making these eyes will on resolutions expecting a response from God.
(37:18):
And again, as we already afore said, there's no need
of aring guard patients that we are not going to
go before God praying and partition in God without any expectation.
That's the whole point of going to the God. When
we go to him, we need to go in expectation,
believe in that when I go to God, I expect
(37:40):
you get an answer from the Lord. If we go
to our friends, we go with expectations that they're going
to be able to do for us the thing that
we approach them for. So, if we can believe and
have faith in our friends, or in our palents, in
our you know, in our uh you know, work over
workers on you know, if we can have expectations that
(38:03):
they're going to meet our expectations, why in the world
don't we have those same aspectations by faith that if
I go before God with a petition that he is
gonna he's secure enough or I'm secure enough in him
that he is gonna respond and give me an assort
for what I take before him. But David had to
(38:23):
save that he expected a response from God for the
resolution that he was going to say to the Lord
very fold. He said, I will this back day that
the pro rocket that they you know, he he just
said this thing, he said unapologetically. He said, I will
(38:48):
abide and by abaknaka whatever. He went on to say,
I will trust and a convert of thy wings. That
means in the secret place or in the security of
thy wings. And then if we look back up he
(39:10):
versed too. David promised, I will pray for the ends
of the earth when our heart is overwhelmed. Even when
my heart overwhelmed me, I'm gonna pray because Lord, I'm
secured in you. So no matter what's going on in
(39:31):
my life, I am not gonna stop serving you. I'm
gonna keep my commitment to you even when I'm overwhelmed.
No matter what going on in my life, I'm not
gonna let it be greater to me over in my
life than the relationship that I had with you. Too.
Oftentimes we forget that we got a relationship with the Lord.
When trouble comes our way, we have to tell the
(39:53):
devil grutts, here that is in me, and here that
is in the world. And now I'm not gonna let
what you bring, or i will shatter who lives each
side of me. And then in verse eight he gave
it promise, I will sing praise unto your name, not
(40:14):
just when you bless me, not just on Sunday morning,
not just on Tuesday night doing transfer on live Bible
radio show, not just on Wednesday night when I go
to Bible study, or whatever night of the week when
I'm on to lie, or at my church whenever my
church have Bible study. But he said, I will sing
(40:35):
praise until your name forever, no matter what's going on
in my life, I'm gonna give you praise. They would
say that song thirty four on his I will bless
the more that all time, and His and His name
to forever be in my mouth. His praise itself forever
be in my mouth. So we we got to always
(40:56):
have a praise on our lips when it comes to
the Lord. Again, David had come to realize the trust
of knowing he could rest in the assurance of being
secured by the power and promises of God. He made
God his dwelling place of security and his refuge. What
(41:22):
about us tonight? Have we made God our security and
our refuge? Is God our dreading place? Well? In Song
ninety one Versus one and two, there it says he
that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High,
(41:43):
shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will
say the Lord, he is my refuge and my fortress,
my God. In him will I trust. And then we've
moved down to birth. Not in that same chapter there
it says, because thou hast made the Lord, which is
(42:08):
my refuse, even of both eyes thy habitation, and verse ten,
there shall no evil befall thee neither shall any plague
come nigh thy dwelling. First of all, Psalm ninety one
(42:30):
is a sum of protection. Wow. It was written by Moses.
Some try to claim and give the credit to David,
but it said that he was written by Moses to
comfort the Israelites while in the wilderness and they were
going through the forty year cursed, also to assure them
(42:56):
of God throughout the ages of this pro again in
their earthly pilgrimage. He was talking about God, their defender
and protect us from their enemies and all evil and
evil unto this date. He is our defender and he
(43:21):
is our protector. He is our Jehovah, me safe, our abander.
That's our defender and our protects us. He is our
cover end. He protects us from the enemy and all evil.
Verse five. Now David expresses his satisfaction and trust in
(43:46):
the past records of service God had rendered unto him.
Because of David's relationship with God, he was not shaken,
but stood us a cure in his faith in the
power of God and the provisions or damed for his life. Therefore,
(44:11):
David proceeds here to outline more mercyful acts of God's
love and kindness towards him as he seeks refuge and
security from the enemy. The scripture reason for thy old
(44:34):
God has heard my violes. Thou hast given me the
heritage of those that fear thy name. While I can
just imagine, if you will allow my imagination just a roam.
(44:55):
Deavid glimpsing into the future of the text at Isaiah
fifty four and seventeen Queer it seeds no weapon that
is formed against THEE shall prosper. And every toe that
shall rise against thee in judgment Thy chef un them.
(45:18):
This is the heritage of the servant of the Lord,
and their righteousness is of me. Saveth the Lord. This
particular passage predicts the nation of Israel that they will
become righteous and they will be the servants of the Lord.
(45:40):
Guess what they put this bully in your ear. This
also applied to us. This is also our security in
the Lord. Because no weapon that's bornes against us, he's
not going to prosper either. He never said that the
weapon was not going to reform, but he said that
(46:03):
if it forms against you, that it will not prosper.
When we look at verse six, the verse reads, God
will prolonged the king's life and his years as many generations. Now,
(46:25):
the heritage that David had been promised by God was
a royal dynasty. See, that's why we better learn how
to trust God and have faith and believe the word
of the Lord. He tells us to put him in
remembrance of the promises that he made us, because the
(46:46):
God don't lie. God's words are immutable. If he said it,
it had to come to pass no promise, No words
that the Lord ever speak from his mouth will ever
fall to the ground. It will perform that wherever where
(47:09):
he says it, because it can't go back to him.
Boyd it got to do whatever he says, because he
don't lie. The heritage that David hadn't again had been
promised was a royal dynasty. Therefore, David was praying here
that he might be granted a prolonged life and that
(47:33):
his sons remained on the throne from generation to generation forever.
As we remember, God made a covenant promise with David
in Second Samuel, chapter seven, verses twelve and thirteen, and
(47:55):
there he promised the establishment of his kingdom by his son.
And here how it reads.
Speaker 4 (48:05):
And when thy Dad's be fulfilled, the guard talking to David.
And when thy dad be fulfilled, and thou shall sleep
with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after these,
which shall proceed out of thy bowels.
Speaker 3 (48:27):
And I will establish his kingdom. And then verse thirteen,
he shall build an house for my name, and I
will establish the throne of his kingdom forever. Now I
need you listen very carefully. David's original throne was only temporary.
(48:55):
His original throne was inherited by his son Solomon. Thereafter,
after he passed away, the eternal throne of David will
be seated and established by God himself. God will establish
(49:16):
the eternal throne for the son that he was talking
about now, Jesus Christ. But then it was looking for
the prophesied coming Messiah. God's promise was fulfilled in Solomon,
who inherited the arranmal throne of David. And then the
(49:43):
fire fulfillment will be in the Messiah Jesus Christ, who
shall reign on the throne throughout eternity according to through that.
According to Isaiah, Chapter nine, verses six and seven says this,
for unto us a child is born, unto us a
(50:07):
son is given, and the government shall be upon his shoulders,
meaning the authority to rule over all the earth, and
his name shall be called. These names were not attributed
to following, but these names were attributed to becoming Messiah.
(50:32):
He shall be called Wonderful Counsel, the Mighty God, the
everlast Thing of Father, the Prince of Peace, of the
increase of his government and peace. There shall be no
end upon the throne of David. All right and upon
(50:57):
his kingdom to order it and to establish it with
judgment and with justice from in force and even forever.
The zeal of the Lord of Hoasts will perform this.
(51:18):
Here we're looking at where God established the authority. He
established the authority with the coming Messiah to be the ruler,
which will fulfill the covenant promise that he made with
David for the royal dynasty to lad throughout eternity, and
(51:40):
it will be secured by God himself set up that
throne to be given to the son Jesus Christ. Wow,
the zeal of the Lord of Hoast will perform this.
This referred to the future fulfillment of the assured promise
God covenant with David to give him a royal dynasty forever.
(52:05):
Here reed, David rested in the security of God to
bring it to past, beginning with Solomon and ending with
Jesus Christ. Charlomon's reign was temporary. However, there shall be
no end to the rule and government of Jesus Christ.
It will last throughout a turn our team verse seven.
(52:31):
Then Psalm sixty one and seven. Things he talking about
King Jesus, he shall abide before God forever. All prepare
mercy and truth which may, which may preserve him. In
(52:51):
respect to his royal limage, David now refers to Jesus
Christ being in before God through our imtunity, He alone
is our safety, our security, our dignity and delight. In him.
(53:14):
In Jesus we are man to sit in evenly places
as true believers. As it is said by firstly people,
long live the King. Now we as believers, we should
be saying, let mercy and truth. Let mercy and truth
(53:38):
preserve our Lord and savior, who is our King, Jesus
the Christ. We as believers, shall not have us because
we are kept by the divine mercy and truth from
which Jesus Christ provides us with his eternal love and
(54:00):
immutable faithfulness. Lamentations Chapter three, verses twenty two and twenty
three says this, it is of the Lord's mercy that
we are not consumed because his compassions fail. Not there
are new ever, and morning. Great is thy faithfulness. You see,
(54:25):
the mercis secures us because of his faithfulness, not because
of our faithfulness. Unto him, God is gonna be merciful.
He's gonna be faithful whether we are faithful or not.
Because that is just who God is. And verse eight,
(54:45):
Now David bows to praise the name of the Lord,
to remain in the security of God as he performed
his daily spiritual works are so may say this spiritual virus.
The verse reads this way, So will I sing praise
(55:08):
unto Thy.
Speaker 2 (55:08):
Name forever, that I may daily perform my violence. Devid
vowed his commitment to ever lasting Maybe he mased a
perpetual prayers unto God because.
Speaker 3 (55:27):
His prayers had been answered. He vowed to demonstrate gratefulness
because his prayers had been accepted by Jesus Christ. He prayed.
But now he vowed to say unto the Lord given
thanks unto even his name forever. David ended this psalm
(55:53):
of prayer, resting in the assurance of God's promises that
when he is consistent in walking circumspect me before God
and living daily according to the holy vowels he had made,
(56:14):
he is content and feel secure that God will render
unto him answered prist now Proverbs three and be closing
on this one. Proverbs three, five and six is a
(56:36):
good definition of security in God. I'm going to read it,
but then I want you to personalize this. Proverbs three,
five and six said, trusting the Lord with all thy
heart and leading, noting too thine own understanding in all
(56:57):
thy ways, acknowledge him and he shall direct thy path.
But then I want you to read this thing, and
I want you to personalize this says, I will trust
in the Lord with all my heart, and I will
not lean unto my own understanding in all my ways.
(57:21):
I will acknowledge him and he will direct my past. Wow.
And if you personalize this thing, this is total safe
and trust for total security in God. Wow. This is
(57:44):
our Bible study discussion on tonight. We just want to
thank the Lord for every one of you who have
been on the line to now. And I believe that
I believe somebody's heart was changing me. If somebody's life
