          You   think   of   Psalm   51 ,   which   I   know ,   ray ,   is   one   of   your   absolute   favorites ?   I   mean   that   is   birthed   out   of   something   real   that   happened   with   David .

          Yeah ,   absolutely .   David   had   committed   adultery ,   committed   murder ,   and   Nathan   called   him   out   on   it   and   said   you&#39;re   the   man .   And   that&#39;s   when   he   realized   he   had   sinned   against   God .   It   just   shows   the   deceitfulness   of   sin ,   how   that   David   could   do   something   like   he   did   with   Goliath   deliver   Israel ,   be   a   lover   of   God   and   then   get   into   sexual   sin   and   create   an   idol   in   his   mind ,   as   if   God   is   happy   with   what   happened   and   swept   everything   under   the   carpet .   In   came   Nathan ,   pulled   back   the   carpet   and   exposed   him ,   and   thus   we   have   Psalm   51 ,   where   we   see   David&#39;s   heart   left   bare .

          And   I&#39;m   in   the   midst   of   reviewing   scripture   that   I&#39;d   memorized   in   my   mind   and   I   turn   around   to   get   the   drinks   and   like   five   seconds   later   I   realize   I   had   been   standing   there   staring   at   the   fountain   machine ,   totally   frozen   like   this .   And   then ,   like   seriously ,   you   guys   know   the   story ,   People   are   walking   by ,   like .   Well ,   you   guys   know   the   story   of   me   brushing   the   tassels ,   you   know ,   in   my   office   when   I   was   counseling   a   couple   and   I   came   to   have   you   said   that   on   the   podcast .

      <time>3:56</time>
      <p>
          Well ,   I   look   over   and   I   see   these   guys   sitting   there   and   they&#39;re   like   look   at   me .   And   then   when   they   walk   out ,   they   did   this   like   smirk   and   looked   over   at   me .   Oh   man ,   what   is   it   with   the   brain ?   They   were   probably   on   something .   Yeah ,   the   last   time   that   happened   to   me   was   on   the   91   freeway .   I   was   coming   to   the   office ,   I   was   reciting   and   going   through   scripture   and   I   veered   into   the   three   plus   lane   on   the   fast   track ,   because   we   always   take   the   three   plus   lane   One   with   our   family ,   yeah .   And   so   I   just   get   lit   up   and   I&#39;m   trying   to   convince   the   officer   I   had   the   folder   next   to   me .   You   know   my   scripture   memory .   I&#39;m   like   officer ,   I&#39;m   working   on   scripture .

          It&#39;s   funny   you   talk   about   like   zoning   out ,   because   the   other   day   I   was   getting   all   these   groceries   and   I   had   like   a   bag   of   fruit   and   I&#39;m   paying   for   my   groceries   and   I&#39;m   sitting   there   and   I   kind   of   zone   out   for   a   second   and   some   dude   steals   my   bag   of   fruit .   Seriously ,   I   was   speechless .   Are   you   saved ?   That   was   good .

          That   letter   I   gave   you ,   which   we   decided   not   to   read ,   has   got   some   dad   jokes   right   at   the   end   of   the   PS .

      <time>5:24</time>
      <p>
          Yeah ,   I&#39;ll   have   to   peer   into   that .   So ,   anyway ,   I&#39;m   standing   there   feeling   like   an   idiot   which   is   nothing   new   and   these   two   teenagers   come   in   and   they&#39;re   standing   there ,   they   order   their ,   their   food ,   they   get   their   water   cups   right ,   and   then   they   go   over   to   the   machine   and   in   my   mind   I   had   like   this   premonition ,   because   I   this   just   typically   happens   with   teenagers .   So   they&#39;re   getting   water   right ,   and   then   one   of   them   looks   around ,   pours   out   his   water ,   puts   in   some   spray   do   you   normally   say   something   when   somebody   fills   up   their   water   cup   with   spray ?

          I&#39;m   trying   to   figure   how   do   I   approach   Oscar .

          I   had ,   every   time   we   go   to   lunch ,   much   stealing ,   so   that&#39;s   illegal   yeah ,   well ,   yeah   you&#39;re   you&#39;re   stealing   soda   for   the   record   I   don&#39;t   even   drink   soda .   

      </p>

        <cite>Emeal Zwayne</cite>
      <time>6:07</time>
      <p>
          Yeah ,   you   know   Oscar&#39;s   Mr   health   freak ,   but   seriously ,   the   solution   of   that   is   to   have   a   dispenser   separate   from   where   the   fountain   drink   is .   You   know   for   that   anyway .   So   so   he   gets   sprite ,   you   know .   So   all   these   scenarios   were   going   through   my   mind ,   because   that   stuff   riles   me   up   and   and   I   can   sometimes ,   like   you   know ,   be   tempted   to   get   in   the   flesh .   But   no ,   I   thought   through   it .   So   then   I   go   up ,   I   go ,   hey   guys ,   I   go   check   this   out .   And   I   did   the   the   printer   app   thing   for   him ,   which   was   a   movie   card   love   it

        <cite>Emeal Zwayne</cite>
      <time>6:35</time>
      <p>
          they   go   oh ,   that&#39;s   so   cool ,   you   know ,   listen   that   I   go .   Hey   guys ,   let   me   just   give   you   a   little   tip .   I   said ,   man ,   as   you   guys   get   older ,   you   become   men .   You   don&#39;t   want   to   compromise   your   character   thing   for   a   little   drop   of   sprite .   And   like   what   when   I&#39;m   goes ?   No ,   I   got   water ,   I   go .   I   saw   him   do   sprite .   So   one   of   them   didn&#39;t   do   it   the   other   day .   He&#39;s   like ,   and   the   kid   just   drops   his   head   and   he&#39;s   like   oh   man ,   you   know .   So   I   just   went   on ,   you   know ,   talk   to   him   about   the   Lord ,   and   then   gave   for   you   gave   him   a   game   attract   and   I   ended   up   being   Arab   kids .

        <cite>Emeal Zwayne</cite>

      <p>
          Their ,   their   mom&#39;s ,   their   dad&#39;s   an   Arab .   You   could   tell   by   what   they   were   wearing   yeah ,   they   were   on   camels .   

      </p>

        <cite>Ray Comfort</cite>
      <time>7:10</time>
      <p>
          They   were   on   camels ,   that&#39;s   how   I   knew .   Oh   easy ,   I   know   you   got   that   spirit   to   the   sin   and   that&#39;s   very   admirable   but   it   was .   

      </p>

        <cite>Emeal Zwayne</cite>
      <time>7:19</time>
      <p>
          It   was   really .   You   know ,   it   was   a   cool   moment   because   they   were   taking   long   to   do   my   food .   I   should   have   left ,   probably   before   those   boys   came   in ,   but   the   Lord ,   just   you   know ,   orchestrated .   I   thought .   You   know   this   is   one   of   those   things   where   they   will   never   forget   this .   Yeah ,   you   know ,   I   mean   when   they&#39;re   later ,   you   know ,   grow   up   thinking   about   character   and   they   go   to   a   kid   oh ,   we   go   to   a   Christian   school ,   you   know ,   is   it ?   The   other   kid   goes .   I   got   baptized   in   the   Jordan   River .   You   know   so   well .   

      </p>

      <p>
          But   you   know   obviously ,   we   were   at   the   orange   block   sharing   the   gospel   I   think   you   were   there   easy   at   that   time   and   there   were   some   guys   waiting   right   outside   the   exit   of   the   movie   theater   and   they&#39;re   waiting   for   one   friend   right .   They   all   pitched   together ,   their   money   goes   inside   the   movie   theater ,   goes   into   the   back   door ,   the   exit   opens   up   the   exit   door   and   everybody   goes   on   inside   and   then   they   watch   whatever   movie   they&#39;re   gonna   watch .   But   I   had   a   chance   to   share   the   gospel   and   that   little   interim   before   that   door   was   opened   and   they   made   their   entrance   and   there   was   one   kid   that   was   really   struck   by   and   I   told   him .   I   said   listen ,   while   you&#39;re   in   there   watching   the   movie ,   I   want   you   to   realize   that   Christ   is   watching   you .   He&#39;s   watching   you   every   step   you   take   into   that   theater .

          This   is   before   they   went   in   before   they   went   in ,   but   you   saw   them   standing   by   the   door   yeah ,   I   knew   what   they   were   waiting   to   do .

          I   can&#39;t   remember   if   I&#39;ve   read   this   before   on   the   podcast   or   not ,   but   it&#39;s   worth   reading   anyway .   All   right ,   I   can&#39;t   begin   to   thank   you   enough   for   being   a   faithful   servant   of   Jesus   Christ .   I   grew   up   in   church   believing   in   God   and   believing   in   Jesus ,   made   a   few   public   professions   of   faith   and   was   even   baptized   several   times ,   thinking   this   time   is   really   it ,   for   real .   This   time   I   did   a   great   job   of   keeping   good   attendance   in   church ,   got   active   in   a   ministry   and   even   started   a   few   Bible   study   groups   and   read   my   Bible   every   day   without   fail .   But   something   was   still   missing .   I   secretly   felt   this   way   and   never   told   anyone .   Well ,   about   a   year   ago ,   my   daughter   asked   me   if   the   evidence   Bible   was   a   good   Bible ,   basically   wanting   to   know   if   it   was   sound   information .   I   honestly   had   no   idea ,   so   I   ordered   one   for   myself   and   eventually   found   your   videos   on   YouTube .

          At   that   time ,   I   was   feeling   guilty   about   having   never   shared   the   gospel   with   anyone ,   so   I   started   forcing   myself   to   do   so ,   and   it   was   like   white   noise   departing   my   lips   just   noise .   I   couldn&#39;t   put   my   finger   on   why   this   was .   As   I   started   watching   your   videos   at   first ,   I   was   deeply   offended   by   your   approach   to   sharing   the   true   gospel .   In   reality ,   I   was   being   convicted   because   I   knew   that   there   were   certain   secret   sins   in   my   life   that ,   no   matter   how   hard   I   tried ,   I   just   couldn&#39;t   get   rid   of .

          Well ,   about   a   month   ago ,   after   reading   through   your   evidence   Bible ,   constantly   bringing   your   videos   and   constantly   studying   this   topic   of   the   gospel ,   it   finally   dawned   on   me   that   I   had   been   a   false   convert   for   so   many   daunting   years ,   having   Christ   plus   works   legalistic   faith ,   if   you   can   even   call   it   that   more   like   religion .   So   I   fell   on   my   face ,   crying ,   with   tears   pouring   down ,   soaking   the   floor   with   a   broken   heart   and   contract   spirit   before   God .   But   on   that   day   it   finally   made   sense   to   me .   I   just   saw   how   rotten   I   was ,   despite   my   many   so-called   good   works ,   and   I   finally   trusted   the   finished   work   of   Jesus   that   Jesus   did   for   me   on   the   cross .   I   just   wanted   to   personally   thank   you   and   your   awesome   team   for   everything   that   you   do   for   our   Lord   and   King ,   jesus   Christ .   Most   sincerely .

          Would   you   say   this   is   what   sets   apart   your   study   habits   from   other   people ,   that   you   are   kind   of   redeeming   the   time .   You&#39;re   very   purposeful ,   right ?   I   mean ?   You&#39;ve   memorized   the   entire   book   of   Galatians   and   Ephesians   and   Philippians   and   Colossians ,   right ?   I   mean ?   I   don&#39;t   know   many   people   that   have   memorized   more   than   three   or   four   verses   in   each   one   of   those   books   and   you   have   other   books   that   you&#39;ve   memorized .   Is   it   a   matter   of   prioritizing   your   time   and   saying   listen ,   while   you   play   Toon   Blast   or   solitary   or   whatever ,   maybe ,   and   you   can   do   that ,   I&#39;m   sorry ,   what   game   was   that   sounds   like .

          I   was   looking   at   Ray&#39;s   phone   and   I   go   what   is   Ray   play ?   So   is   that   what   it   is ?   I   mean   you&#39;re   just   prioritizing   your   time   saying   while   you   play   the   game ,   I&#39;m   just   gonna   be   kind   of   you   know ,   I   think   the   key   is   priority ,   because   it&#39;s   not   about   not   having   leisure .

          I   think   that   it&#39;s   good   and   healthy .   Everyone   has   their   own   bent   on   what   things   they   do .   That   helps   them ,   you   know ,   relax ,   but   it&#39;s   priority .   So   to   me   it&#39;s   like   if   I&#39;m   gonna   do   something   relaxing ,   which   which   I   do   and   and   I   enjoy   I   want   to   make   sure   I&#39;ve   prioritized   what&#39;s   most   important ,   you   know ,   and   and   then   enjoy   those   sorts   of ,   so   you   have   10   minutes   to   kill .

          I   usually   like   to .   I   mean ,   again ,   it   depends   on   where   I&#39;m   at   my   day .   Have   I ,   have   I   fulfilled   my   priorities ?   Have   I   memorized ?   Have   I   been   reviewing   my   scriptures ?   Have   I   been   working   on   my   reading   and   my ?   Have   I   spent   time   with   Lord   in   prayer ?   If   I&#39;ve   done   that ,   maybe   I&#39;ll   watch   a   funny   video   or   something   or   you   know   whatever .   But   typically   if   I&#39;m   standing   in   the   line ,   a   lot   of   times   I&#39;ll   be   reciting .   Like   I   said ,   what   happened   the   other   day   in   the   in   the   store ,   I&#39;ll   recite   scripture   or ,   you   know ,   review   scripture ,   or   do   my   reading   or   Text   someone   and   encourage   them .

          So   have   you   always   been   like   this ?   I   mean ,   what   I&#39;m   trying   to   get   is   what   has   pushed   you   over   the   edge   right ,   what   separates   easy   from   other   people   who   are   just   not   doing   this   but   they   say   you   know ,   I   want   to   do   that ,   I   want   to   memorize   scripture .   What   is   that   first   step ?

          I   think   I   have   an   answer   observing   your   life ,   because   you   said   priority ,   think   both   of   you   said   priority .   I   would   characterize   easy ,   different   than   just   priority ,   because   priority   people   can   have   priority   for   God&#39;s   word   for   a   month   and   then   it   falls   away .   I   think   the   thing   that   I&#39;ve   witnessed   in   EZ&#39;s   life   is   consistency .   Like   we   went   on   a   five   and   a   half   hour   road   trip   up   to   Northern   California   and   he   didn&#39;t   use   that   as   an   excuse   to   not   do   his   daily   disciplines   of   reading   and   prayer   and   writing .   At   that   time   he   was   in   the   car   doing   those   things   and   I   think   consistency   is- .   Was   he   draw   having ?   Yeah ,   he   was   with   his   feet .

          I   think   consistency   is   powerful   and   it&#39;s   often   overlooked .   I&#39;ve   quoted   before   that   the   idea   of   a   long   obedience   in   the   same   direction ,   day   in   and   day   out .   You   know ,   I   compare   it   to   like   working   out .   If   somebody   shows   up   and   works   out   on   a   Monday   and   then   they   wake   up   the   next   day   and   they   look   in   the   mirror   and   they&#39;re   like   man ,   I   didn&#39;t   see   a   difference ,   I&#39;m   going   to   quit .   They&#39;re   never   going   to   go   anywhere .   If   they   worked   out   three   days   in   a   row   and   then   they   looked   in   the   mirror   and   like   I   don&#39;t   see   anything ,   I&#39;m   going   to   quit .   I   don&#39;t   know   when   the   time   is ,   but   at   some   point ,   when   you   consistently   start   working   out ,   you   start   to   notice   a   difference .   I   don&#39;t   know   when   that   day   is .   It&#39;s   you   know   a   month ,   two   months ,   three   months ,   I   don&#39;t   know .   The   point   is ,   you   start   recognizing   the   difference .   I   think   in   EZ&#39;s   life ,   what   I   witnessed   since   knowing   you   is   a   consistency ,   is   a   long   obedience   in   the   same   direction   through   your   daily   disciplines ,   which   comes   to   memorizing   scriptures   and   meditating   on   God&#39;s   word .

          Wow .   Well ,   that&#39;s   encouraging   guys .   You   know ,   I   know   all   my   shortcomings   and   they&#39;re   huge   and   they&#39;re   massive ,   but   Ray   has   Amen ,   amen .   But   Ray   has   actually   been   a   massive   encouragement   and   example   to   me .   Inconsistency   Ray&#39;s   the   most   consistent   man   I   know .   He   starts   something   he   doesn&#39;t   stop   at .   I   mean   12   years   every   day   in   New   Zealand ,   open   air   preaching ,   you   know ,   going   to   Huntington   Beach ,   how   many   years   going   to   Cerritos   every   day ,   a   couple   times   a   day .   Like   you   said ,   it&#39;s   doing   something ,   even   if   it&#39;s   small ,   every   day   and   being   consistent   with   it ,   man ,   you&#39;ll   be   miles   ahead .   You   know ,   there&#39;s   a   day   when   I   started   the   first   verse   of   the   first   book   that   I   memorized   and   I   just   kept   going   and   it   built ,   you   know .   But   you   have   a   phenomenal   memory .   God&#39;s   been   kind   in   that   regard .   I   mean ,   I   feel   like   I   have   a   knack   for   memorization .

          So   what   I&#39;m   trying   to   say   is   that   when   you&#39;re   young   and   your   memory   is   very   good ,   use   it .

          I   just   want   to   take   a   step   back   and   not   overlook   the   reality   that   you   said .   Ray   is   a   massive   influence ,   which   has   got   to   be   the   first   time   Ray   and   Massive   was   ever   used   in   a   sense .

      <p>
          Massive   Ray ,   that&#39;s   true .   But   anyway ,   what   I   was   starting   to   say   was   the   reason   why   you   know   I   share   that   and   other   things   like   that   is   to   encourage   people .   And   I   have   a   point   to   make   in   that ,   mark ,   when   you   guys   were   having   lunch   with   some   friends   and   I   walked   in   I   had   been   speaking   somewhere .   I   walked   into   the   same   restaurant ,   texted   you   guys   what&#39;s   hiding   and   all   that   silly   stuff .   Anyway ,   our   good   friend ,   jerry   Blodgett ,   after   I   was   leaving   the   restaurant ,   followed   me   out .   Yeah ,   he&#39;s   a   listener .

        <cite>Mark Spence</cite>
      <time>21:03</time>
      <p>
          No ,   he   didn&#39;t   follow .   He   ran   from   our   table .   

      </p>

        <cite>Emeal Zwayne</cite>
      <time>21:06</time>
      <p>
          Oh ,   he   ran .   Okay ,   I   didn&#39;t   see   the   running   Like .

        <cite>Mark Spence</cite>
      <time>21:08</time>

      <time>21:10</time>
      <p>
          Yeah .   So   anyway ,   Jerry   is   a   good   friend ,   known   him   for   ages   goes   to   our   church .   You   guys   were   all   having   lunch   together   and   shout   out   to   you   Jerry ,   Jerry   listens   to   the   podcast   faithfully ,   so   anyway ,   he   follows   me   out   and   he   goes .   Man ,   I   just   want   to   thank   you   so   much   for   mentioning   because   I&#39;ve   mentioned   it   before   in   the   podcast   that   you   listen   to   the .   You   read   the   Psalms   and   Proverbs   through   every   month .

          He&#39;s   like   man ,   I   started   doing   that   and   he   said ,   like ,   basically ,   he&#39;s   addicted .   He&#39;s   like ,   if   I   go ,   you   know   a   few   days   and   I   haven&#39;t   done ,   he&#39;s   like   I   start   feeding   for   it .   And   that   just   stirred   my   soul .   I   thought ,   man ,   you   know ,   that&#39;s   why   we   share   examples   from   our   lives .   It&#39;s   to   stir   each   other   up .   I   mean ,   what   do   we   have   to   boast   in ?   What   do   we   have   that   we   didn&#39;t   receive ,   as   Scripture   says ?   And   if   we   received   it ,   why   do   we   boast ?   As   if ,   though ,   we   didn&#39;t ,   Like   it   came   from   ourselves ?   Why   would   I   be   something   special   for   eating   food ?   Oh   yeah ,   Look   at   the   way   I   eat ,   brother .   Like ,   what   are   you   talking   about ?   I   eat   a   lot .   Of   course ,   food   is   good   and   you   need   it ,   and   it&#39;s   healthy .   So   anyway ,   Jerry ,   thank   you ,   you   blessed   me   that   day ,   and   that   stirred   me   to   mention   that   again   today .

          And   yeah ,   so   it&#39;s   contagious ?   Yeah ,   and   the   same   way ,   when   a   senior   pastor   is   sharing   his   evangelistic   endeavors   that   week ,   from   the   pulpit   it   lights   a   fire   underneath   the   people   in   the   pews .

          Yeah ,   so   if   you   want ,   Sorry ,   mark ,   go   ahead   no ,   finish   it ,   no ,   no ,   your   zeal   is   to   provoke   many   Scripture   says   and   it   does .   Yeah ,   so   does   yawning ,   don&#39;t   do   it .

          So ,   guys ,   Psalms   we&#39;re   going   to   jump   into   Psalms   today .   You   know   you   say   so ,   we   haven&#39;t   got   time   for   stuff ,   We&#39;ll   talk   about   that .   You   say   Psalms   and   I   think   there&#39;s   this   sort   of   shared   sense   that   people   get   from   saying   that   because   of   what   the   Psalms   contain   and   what   they&#39;re   all   about .   So   I   have   so   much   to   say   and   background   and   all   that ,   but   I&#39;m   going   to   let   Oscar   give   us   a   flyover   because   he&#39;s   really   good   at   that   kind   of   thing .

          Yeah ,   and   you   think   we   can   handle   Psalms   in   one   program .

          Seriously   Generally ,   not ,   but   we&#39;ll   give   it   a   go .   We   can   revisit   it   and   do   more   of   them ,   but   I   think   I   have   a   lot   that   I   want   to   touch   on   in   those .

            Psalms .   You   know ,   if   you   think   about   it ,   the   Psalms   150   of   them ,   their   poems ,   their   songs ,   their   prayers ,   and   this   is   sort   of   like   Israel&#39;s   playlist ,   right ,   like   we   all   have   Spotify ,   apple ,   apple   Music ,   whatever .   We   have   endless   songs .   This   150 ,   this   was   their   playlist .   This   was   the   songs   they   lived   by .   They   date   back   as   early   as   Moses ,   between   the   15th   and   13th   century .   They   move   forward   into   David&#39;s   reign ,   into   the   period   of   Babylonian   exile   and   even   after   that ,   73   of   them   are   directly   connected   to   David .   After   that   we&#39;ve   got   authors   like   Solomon .   I&#39;ve   mentioned   Moses .   We   have   49   anonymous   ones .   But   here&#39;s   what&#39;s   important   when   I   want   to   draw   our   attention   to   A   lot   of   people   don&#39;t   realize .

          They   think   that   it&#39;s   just   a   bunch   of   random   Psalms .   They&#39;ve   actually .   Shortly   after   the   Babylonian   exile ,   they   were   rearranged   into   five   general   categories   and   some   scholars   and   theologians   have   different   perspectives   on   the   topics ,   but   we   all   agree   that   they&#39;ve   been   organized   into   five   categories .   Books ,   basically ,   1   to   42 .   You   can   categorize   as   God&#39;s   covenant   faithfulness .   Book   two   would   be   42   to   72 ,   which   is   hope   for   the   Messianic   kingdom .   This   is   while   they   are   in ,   are   going   into   exile .   Book   three   is   chapter   73   to   89 ,   which   is   hope   in   or   hope   after   the   exile ,   book   fours   versus   chapters   90   to   106 ,   which   is   God   as   king   over   all   creation .   And   then   finally   the   songs   of   a   sense   or   poems   of   praise ,   which   is   where   it ,   where   it   all   kind   of   comes   to   head .

          Yeah ,   I   love   the   way   you   put   that   Oscar   Israel&#39;s   play   list .   You   know   just   the   fact   that   the   Psalms   are   so   connected   to   real   life   experiences   in   the   midst   of   things   that   were   happening .   You   think   of   Psalm   51 ,   which   I   know ,   Ray ,   is   one   of   your   absolute   favorites .   I   mean   that   is   birthed   out   of   something   real   that   happened   with   David .

          Yeah ,   absolutely .   David   had   committed   adultery ,   committed   murder ,   and   Nathan   called   him   out   on   it   and   said   you&#39;re   the   man .   And   that&#39;s   when   he   realized   he   had   sinned   against   God .   And   it   just   shows   that   a   seafolness   of   sin ,   how   that   David   could   do   something   like   he   did   with   Goliath   deliver   Israel ,   be   a   lover   of   God   and   then   get   into   sexual   sin   and   create   an   idol   in   his   mind ,   as   if   God   is   happy   with   what   happened   and   swept   everything   under   the   carpet .   In   came   Nathan ,   pulled   back   the   carpet   and   exposed   him ,   and   thus   we   have   Psalm   51 ,   where   we   see   David&#39;s   heart   left   bare .

          And   you   know   just   a   note   on   how   you   validate   scripture   by   the   fact   that   its   heroes   are   shown   with   all   their   warts .   You   know ,   in   the   sense   that   if   you&#39;re   going   to   compile   something   as   a   fictional   sort   of   a   work   so   that   you   can   garner   followers   or   whatever ,   you   would   never   paint   your   heroes   as   flawed   people .

          Right ,   I   remember   teaching   on   Psalm   23 .   And   one   of   the   books   that   I   really   enjoyed   was   A   Shepherd   Looks   at   Psalm   23   by   Philip   Keller .   So   Ray   and   I ,   we   were   at   a   CBA   several   years   ago   and   Philip   Keller   was   there   signing   books   and   I   went   up   to   him ,   waited   in   line ,   gave   him   a   hell&#39;s   biscuit   secret   and   I   said   hey ,   I   just   want   to   thank   you   for   your   book   A   Shepherd   Looks   at   Psalm   23 .   It   was   a   real   blessing .   I   read   it   a   couple   times   and   I   taught   on   different   points .   When   I   had   taught ,   he&#39;s   looking   at   me   with   a   little   bit   of   bewilderment   and   I   didn&#39;t   understand   that   you   know   entirely .   And   I   walked   away   and   I   was   just   thinking   well ,   I   mean ,   I   was   just   I&#39;m   glad   that   I   was   able   to   tell   him   that   I   look   over   and   I   and   I   see   a   little   name   placard   and   it   said   Philip   Yancy ,   wrong ,   philip .

The   man   of   the   Tombs ,   a   guy   named   Roby   Duke ,   and   when   I   was   pastoring ,   you   know ,   someone   said   Roby   Duke   is   here .   You   know   I&#39;m   like   what ?   So   I   got   up   to   the   guy   and   I&#39;m   Ray   oh ,   you&#39;re   so ,   he&#39;s   like   trying   to   enter   around   me   by ,   like   that&#39;s   not   me   man .   Oh   it&#39;s   crazy .   It   was   funny ,   but   I   do   that   with   people .   I   got   called   the   wrong   names   and   Rachel ,   just   yeah ,   it   gets   really   no   way ,   I   have   no ,   seriously .

          Comfort .   Here   it   is   again ,   but   let   me   just   I   mean ,   we   talked   about   Psalm   51 .   Hang   on .

          But   let   me   just   read   a   few   verses   from   Psalm   51 .   I   mean ,   we   can&#39;t   just   pass   it   by .   Have   mercy   upon   me ,   oh   God ,   according   to   your   loving   kindness ,   according   to   the   multitude   of   your   tender   mercies ,   blot   out   my   transgressions ,   wash   me   thoroughly   from   my   iniquity   and   cleanse   me   from   my   sin ,   for   I   acknowledge   my   transgressions   and   my   sin   is   always   before   me ,   against   you .   You   only   have   I   sinned   and   done   this   evil   in   your   sight .   Oh ,   I   mean ,   Mark ,   when   you   say   this   is   like   the   epitome   of   repentance ,   like   no   excuses .   It&#39;s   against   you ,   Lord .

          This   is   like   well ,   that&#39;s   a   great   focal   point   and   it&#39;s   a   great   place   to   start   and   it&#39;s   a   great   place   to   finish .   As   much   as   we   think   that   our   sin   may   be   horizontal ,   it   will   always   be   vertical .   Right   Now   I   have   a   question   right   and   maybe   I&#39;ll   address   it   towards   Oscar .   It   seems   to   be   the   scholar   of   the   group   right   here ,   but   you   quoted   Psalm   51 .   We   know   that   is   David .   Yeah ,   right ,   we   look   at   maybe   Psalm   22 ,   verse   one ,   where   it   says   my   God ,   my   God ,   why   have   you   forsaken   me ?   And   as   we   look   at   a   text   like   that ,   why   is   it   just   not   David   thinking   to   himself   God ,   you   have   forsaken   David ?   We   are   quick   to   say   that   that   is   a   scripture   pointing   to   Jesus ,   when   Jesus&#39;   name   is   not   mentioned .   How   do   we   deal   with   a   text   like   that ?   What ?   

      </p>

        <cite>Oscar Navarro</cite>
      <time>29:24</time>
      <p>
          do   you   think ,   oscar ?   Yeah ,   well ,   one .   Jesus   attributes   that   chapter   right   to   himself   on   the   cross   when   he   says   my   God ,   my   God ,   why   have   you   forsaken   me ?   And   I   think   it&#39;s   important   to   realize .   You   know ,   you   and   I   were   talking   earlier   about   the   idea   of   Jesus   fulfilling   prophecy ,   and   one   of   the   things   that   we   often   do   in   our   minds   is   we   think   that   when   we   hear   prophecy   fulfillment ,   we   think   there&#39;s   like   this   one   to   one   as   then ,   like   as   though   there   was   like   this   list   of   like   50   or   100   things   that   Jesus   needed   to   checkmark ,   do .   

      </p>

        <cite>Oscar Navarro</cite>
      <time>29:54</time>
      <p>
          And   what   we   need   to   realize   is   that   often ,   when   the   Jewish   people   thought   about   prophecy   for   being   fulfilled ,   it   wasn&#39;t   so   much   a   checkmark ,   rather   typological ,   or   to   use   a   different   phrase ,   they   saw   Jesus   in   the   stories   that   they   grew   up   in   and   so ,   in   other   words ,   like   God&#39;s   people   were   always   longing   for   a   perfect   King   and   they   thought   that   David   was   going   to   be   the   perfect   King .   But ,   as   you   alluded   to   Psalm   51 ,   david   sins ,   and   so   when   Jesus   steps   into   the   marketplace ,   he   calls   himself   the   one   true   perfect   King .   He   is   the   perfect   David ,   the   perfect   King   that&#39;s   going   to   lead   people   when   David   sinned   and   because   of   that ,   his   son   dies   and   the   people   suffer ,   the   kingdom   suffer .   Jesus   steps   in   and   he   does   not   sin ,   and   yet   he   is   the   son   that   dies   for   our   sins   so   that   God&#39;s   kingdom   would   reign   on   earth   as   it   is   in   heaven ,   and   so   it&#39;s   important   that   we   see   how   he   fulfills   prophecy   by   being   a   typological   figure   that   the   people   were   longing   for   all   through   the   Old   Testament .   That&#39;s   great ,   yeah .

      <p>
          yeah .   And   then   you   know   I   think   this   is   extremely   important   to   note ,   mark ,   because   there   are   some   who   have   become   disillusioned   by   messianic   prophecy ,   because   they&#39;ll   look   at   the   context   and   they&#39;ll   say   wait   a   minute ,   this   is   talking   about   this .   Is   David   talking   about   himself   or   what ?   Have   you   Remember   what   it   says   in   Mark   12 ,   36 ,   david   himself   said   by   the   Spirit .   We   have   to   understand   that   the   New   Testament   is   unveiling   for   us   the   realities   of   what   God ,   by   the   Spirit ,   had   put   in   Scripture ,   even   though   these   were   Psalms   that   were   being   written   by   David   or   others ,   in   reference   to   maybe   even   themselves .   So   the   New   Testament   is   unveiling   for   us   what   God   intended   in   that .   So   that&#39;s   why   we   know   they&#39;re   messianic .   We   can&#39;t   just   go   and   pick   things   out   on   ourselves ,   but   we&#39;re   talking   about   the   prophetic   guidance   given   by   the   authors   of   the   New   Testament   to   reveal   that   reality   to   us .   Does   that   make ?

          sense ,   yeah ,   yeah .   Rho   Tomeus ,   where   Jesus   said   fools   in   slav   hearten   to   believe   all   that   the   prophets   have   spoken   and   direct   reference   to   himself   in   Scripture .

          Some   one   through   to   150 .   I   love ,   I   love   Psalm   23 ,   the   death   Psalm   as   it&#39;s   often   used   in   Hollywood .   You   see   these   old   cowboy   movies   where   they&#39;re   bearing   some   guy   and   a   drunken   preacher   says   the   Lord   is   my   shepherd ,   I   shall   not   want   to   make   me   land .   And   he   says ,   though ,   I   walk   through   the   valley   of   the   shadow   of   death .   

      </p>

        <cite>Ray Comfort</cite>
      <time>32:39</time>
      <p>
          And   most   people   say   that   Psalm   is   speaking   about   death ,   when   it&#39;s   speaking   about   the   exact   opposite .   When   you   walk   through   the   valley   of   the   shadow   of ,   you&#39;re   not   in   the   reality   and   just   close   proximity   to   it .   If   you&#39;re   in   the   shadow   of   a   wall ,   you&#39;re   not   in   the   wall ,   you&#39;re   just   very   close   to   the   wall .   And   this   life   is   the   shadow   of   death .   And   it   says   of   Jesus   to   them   that   sat   in   the   shadow   of   death   a   light   has   sprung   up ,   and   the   light   of   Christ   banishes   the   shadow   of   death .   So   it&#39;s   great   to   point   out   to   people   that   this   life ,   not   death   itself ,   is   that   shadow   of .   The   valley   that   we&#39;re   talking   of ,   we   walk   through .   The   shadow   of   death   is   hovering   over   every   one   of   us .   It   can   take   us   out   in   a   split   second .

          You   know ,   I   picture   King   David   right .   He   walks   up   to   the   fence   and   he   looks   at   these   sheep   on   the   other   side   of   the   fence   and   he&#39;s   just   saying   where&#39;s   your   shepherd ?   Right ,   the   Lord   is   my   shepherd .   You   guys   are   so   weak ,   you   guys   are   in   need ,   you   guys   are   hungry .   Listen ,   I   don&#39;t   lack   anything ,   you   know ,   and   I   just   see   the   contrast ,   back   and   forth ,   back   and   forth ,   with   King   David   looking   at   the   other   sheep   and   just   boasting   and   who   his   shepherd   is .   And   that&#39;s   what   we   can   do ,   and   that&#39;s   what   Psalm   points   out   to   us .   I   love   that .   No ,   you   love .   No ,   that&#39;s   great   Good   to   you .

          I&#39;m   originally   from   New   Zealand   and   a   lot   of   sheep   in   New   Zealand .   I   won&#39;t   make   the   sheep   joke ,   but   one   thing   I   learned   about   sheep   is   they&#39;re   really ,   really   dumb .   I   mean   seriously   dumb .   They   just   stand   there   looking   dumb ,   growing   wool   and   waiting   to   be   eaten .   I   remember   when   we   were   surfing   if   a   sheep   got   in   front   of   our   vehicle   it   would   run   in   front   of   the   vehicle   for   miles ,   not   thinking   I   should   go   to   the   left   to   get   out   of   the   road   as   a   vehicle ,   but   it   didn&#39;t   think   it   was   just   run ,   run ,   run ,   run .

And   when   you&#39;re   giving   out   gospel   tracks   you   can   see   the   sheep   mentality   of   people .   If   someone   in   a   line   takes   a   track ,   all   have   one ,   all   have   one .   One   person   says   no ,   you   can   guarantee   the   next   three   or   say   no   because   we   certainly   are   like   sheep .   And   I   read   something .   I   did   a   video   on   how   to   get   to   sleep ,   how   to   enjoy   sleep ,   induce   sleep ,   and   I   saw   in   the   comments   someone   said   if   you   can&#39;t   sleep ,   don&#39;t   count   sheep .   Talk   to   the   shepherd   and   I   said   oh ,   that&#39;s   really   good .   How   many   sheep   are   there ?   In   New   Zealand ?   There&#39;s   something   like   50   million ,   but   not   sure   of   the   exact   amount   because   the   guy   that   counts   and   keeps   falling   to   sleep   Nice .   You   said   you   weren&#39;t   going   to   say   it .   You   made   me .

          You   provoke   me   like   I   love   Psalm   23 .   It   kind   of   flies   in   the   face   of ,   at   least   you   know ,   here   in   the   United   States ,   like   American   machismo   culture   because   we   all   liked   it .   Like   I   had   this   friend   shop   one   time   at   the   gym   with   me   and   he   was   wearing   a   shirt   and   it   said   not   a   sheep .   And   I   kind   of   chuckled   and   like   I&#39;m   like   what&#39;s   that   supposed   to   mean ?   And   he   told   me   and   I   didn&#39;t   disagree   with   why   he   was   wearing   it ,   but   I   was   like   you   know ,   the   irony   of   that   is   that   you   are   a   sheep ,   you&#39;re   just   following   a   different   shepherd ,   and   that&#39;s   the   thing   is   that   we&#39;re   all   sheep .   The   question   isn&#39;t   whether   or   not   you&#39;re   a   sheep ,   the   question   is   who&#39;s   your   shepherd ?

          and   who&#39;s   not .   And   you   know ,   I   think   it&#39;s   important   for   us   to   note   that   it&#39;s   easy   to   take   Psalms   like   Psalm   23 ,   because   it&#39;s   so .   I   mean ,   it&#39;s   just   so   familiar   and   it&#39;s   true ,   the   Psalm   you&#39;ll   hear   unbelievers   quote .   It&#39;s   just   like .   It&#39;s   like   what   I&#39;ve   said   before   the   John   3   16   syndrome .   You   know ,   we&#39;re   so   familiar   that   we   almost   write   it   off .   Man ,   we   need   to   pause   and   really   explore   the   depths   and   the   power   of   that .   You   know ,   the   Lord   is   my   shepherd .   I   mean ,   you   think   of   Mark   6 ,   which   I&#39;ve   talked   about   before .   I   mean   when   Jesus   looked   out   at   the   multitude   and   he   saw   them   as   weary   and   scattered   and   like   sheep   having   no   shepherd .   That&#39;s   actually   Matthew   9   hones   in   on   that ,   but   it&#39;s   a   parallel   passage .   But   sheep   having   no   shepherd ,   that   is   the   world .   And   what&#39;s   a   shepherd   do   for   a   sheep ?

          He   guides ,   he   provides ,   he   protects ,   he   breaks   the   legs   of   the   little   sheep   that   goes   stray .   Is   that   true ?   I&#39;ve   never   heard   that   I   read   that   inside   the   book   right ,   like   the   shepherd   that   goes ,   the   sheep   that   goes   stray .   He   breaks   the   legs ,   puts   it   around   and   he   tends   to   it   and   then ,   when   the   sheep   is   all   better ,   the   sheep   knows   not   to   stray   from   the   shepherd .

          I&#39;ll   tell   you   what   anytime   there&#39;s   a   beautiful   sunset   inside   my   house ,   somebody   will   come   inside   the   house   and   they&#39;ll   say   you   need   to   go   outside   right   now ,   right ?   And   we   all   go   outside   and   we   just   stand   in   amazement   at   the   sunset .   I   think   I   watch   every   sunrise   and   every   sunset .   When   it   comes   time   for   the   sunset ,   I&#39;m   on   a   walk   and   I&#39;m   enjoying   it   and   taking   pictures   and   just   absolutely   bling   away .   And   I   saw   the   most   beautiful   sunset   the   other   day   when   we   were   coming   back   from   the   river   there   in   Blythe   with   the   Sorensons .   Take   a   picture .   I   did   take   a   picture .   I&#39;ll   show   it   to   you   and   it   was   a   picture .   We   stopped   it   in   and   out   and   the   sun   sets   in   the   back   and   I   got   two   of   my   favorite   things   in   the   same   picture .

          You   know   I   love   that   we&#39;re   talking   about   Psalm   23   and   these   other   Psalms   of   praise ,   but   one   aspect   that   I   think   is   really   important   for   us   to   remember ,   too ,   is   the   Psalms   of   Lament ,   and   I   think   Lament   is   a   lost   art .   I   think   we&#39;ve   talked   about   this   before   in   the   podcast .   I   think   Lament   is   a   lost   art .   Could   you   define   it ,   especially   in   the   Christian   church   Lament ,   because   it&#39;s   an   old   book .   Yeah ,   yeah ,   I   think   it&#39;s   a   lost   art ,   especially   in   the   modern   day .   Church   Lament   is   a   longing   awaiting ,   a   crying   out ,   and   I   think   often   we   want   to   run   quickly   to   like   moments   of   praise .   That   is   a   great   picture .

          Psalms   of   Lament .   They&#39;re   needed   for   us .   Psalms   of   Lament ,   often   in   unanswered   prayers .   I&#39;m   thinking   about   Psalm   88 .   I   cry   out   day   and   night   and   you   might   think   like ,   oh   man ,   he&#39;s   crying   out .   There&#39;s   so   many   unanswered   prayers   the   Psalmist   has   in   Psalm   88 .   And   you   would   think   that   the   Psalm   would   end   with   a   pretty   bow .   I   will   trust   you ,   you   are   my   faithful   God ,   but   it   ends   like   this   you   have   my   companion   have   become   darkness .   It&#39;s   like   he   does   not   have   answers   to   his   questions .   So   it&#39;s   real   life .   That&#39;s   real   life .   That&#39;s   exactly   right .

          We   can   relate   to   the   Psalmist   when   we   read   Psalms   like   this ,   because   we   begin   to   think   that   we   are   a   boat   to   ourselves ,   an   island   on   to   ourselves .   A   boat   to   ourselves .   A   new   phrase   A   Titanic   to   ourselves   that   we&#39;re   going   down   and   nobody   understands   what   we   are   going   through .   And   then   we   read   what   the   Psalmist   says   and   we   go   boy .   Now   I&#39;m   still   depressed .   Now   I&#39;m   just   depressed   with   somebody   else .

          Yeah ,   unlike   an   island   going   down ,   I&#39;m   like   an   island   on   a   ship .

          And   there   are   promises   for   those   moments   of   lament .   Lamentations   325 ,   the   Lord   is   good   to   those   who   wait   for   him ,   to   the   soul   who   seeks ,   and   then   Isaiah   49 ,   those   who   wait   for   me   shall   not   be   put   to   shame .   And   so   the   Psalms   of   lament   are   a   reminder   that ,   even   in   those   long   seasons   of   uncertainty ,   of   pain ,   of   suffering ,   of   longing   for   the   Lord ,   he   is   faithful .

          Yeah .   Psalm   18 ,   1   to   6, .   I   will   love   you ,   o   Lord ,   my   strength ,   the   Lord ,   is   my   rock   and   my   fortress   and   my   deliverer ,   my   God ,   my   strength ,   in   whom   I   will   trust   my   shield ,   in   the   horn   of   my   salvation ,   my   stronghold .   I   will   call   upon   the   Lord ,   who   is   worthy   to   be   praised .   So   shall   I   be   saved   from   my   enemies .   The   pangs   of   death   surrounded   me   and   the   floods   of   ungodliness   made   me   afraid .   The   sorrows   of   shield   surrounded   me .   The   snares   of   death   confronted   me .   In   my   distress ,   I   called   upon   the   Lord   and   cried   out   to   my   God .   He   heard   my   voice   from   his   temple   and   my   cry   came   before   him ,   even   to   his   ears .

          Ray   has .   Ray   you   have .   You   have   written   this   scripture   over   and   over   again   and   told   people   about   this .   Psalm   37 ,   take   the   light   in   the   Lord .   He&#39;ll   give   you   the   desires   of   your   heart .   

      </p>

        <cite>Ray Comfort</cite>
      <time>40:44</time>
      <p>
          Yes ,   yeah ,   it&#39;s   a ,   it&#39;s   a .   It&#39;s   one   that&#39;s   taken   out   of   context   and   it&#39;s   perfect   for   a   prosperity   preacher .   It&#39;s   perfect   for   a   pregnant   prosperity   preacher ,   because   it&#39;s   like ,   just   if   you   want   it ,   you   just   begin   claiming   it .   God   will   give   you   the   desires   of   your   heart .   But   they   don&#39;t   realize   or   preach   that   when   you   become   a   Christian ,   your   desires   die .   You   get   on   your   knees   and   say   not   my   will ,   but   yours   be   done .   So   when   we   cry   out   for   our   desires ,   it&#39;s   not   for   a   bigger   car ,   a   bigger   house ,   more   carpet   and   thicker   carpet ,   whatever   it&#39;s   all .   God ,   my   desires   are   like   your   desires ,   because   I&#39;m   trusting   in   you   and   his   desire   is   that   none   perish .   And   so   when   you&#39;ve   got   God&#39;s   desires   as   your   desires ,   that&#39;s   when   you   can   have   confidence   that   it&#39;ll   grant   your   desires   to   you .   So   good   that&#39;s   good ,   yeah .

          Psalm   27, .   One   through   three .   The   Lord   is   my   light ,   my   salvation .   Whom   shall   I   fear ?   The   Lord   is   the   strength   of   my   life .   Of   whom   shall   I   be   afraid ?   When   the   wicked   came   against   me   to   eat   up   my   flesh ,   my   enemies   and   foes ,   they   stumbled   and   fell .   Though   an   army   main   camp   against   me ,   my   heart   shall   not   fear   the   war   may   rise   against   me .   In   this   I   will   be   confident ,   man ,   I   mean .

          The   beauty   of   the   Lord   and   the   inquirer   in   his   temple ,   for   in   time   of   trouble ,   he   shall   hide   me   in   his   pavilion ,   in   the   secret   place   of   his   tabernacle .   He   shall   hide   me ,   he   shall   set   me   high   upon   a   rock .   That&#39;s   why   it&#39;s   so   good   to   memorize   my   Psalms ,   because   they   become   your   prayers .   Yeah ,   when   we   find   ourselves   in   those   times   of   distress   and   anguish   and   pain ,   we   can   connect   our   hearts   with   the   truth   of   God&#39;s   word .   I   mean ,   the   Lord   put   these   in   here   for   a   purpose .

          You   know   you&#39;ve   reminded   me   of   Psalm   91 ,   I&#39;m   sure   you&#39;re   familiar   with   it   he   that   dwells   in   the   secret   place   of   the   most   high   shall   abide   under   the   shadow   of   the   Almighty .   And   then   it   goes   on   promises   A   thousand   fold   at   one   side ,   etc .   It   takes   me   back   like   400   years   when   I   used   to   visit   a   91-year-old   Presbyterian   minister ,   the   Reverend   George   Denson ,   and   he   would   tell   me   of   when   he ,   as   a   chaplain ,   would   minister   to   soldiers   who   were   about   to   go   to   war   and   he   said   there   were   grown   men   who   would   be   weeping   in   fear .   We   just   you ,   don&#39;t   really   think   about   that .   These   guys   are   going   into   battle .   I   was   watching   a   documentary   the   other   day   about   D-Day   and   I   was   saying   50%   of   these   guys   are   going   to   die .   That   was   before   they   went   to   battle .   It   was   even   more   than   that   and   these   guys   would   weep   and   that&#39;s   the   Psalm   he   read   to   them   and   told   them   to   stand   on .

            love   this   too .   And   also   in   Psalm   127, .   I   would   have   lost   heart   unless   I   had   believed   that   I   would   see   the   goodness   of   the   Lord   in   the   land   of   the   living .   Wait   on   the   Lord ,   be   of   good   courage   and   he   shall   strengthen   your   heart .   Wait ,   I   say   on   the   Lord .

          Amen ,   psalm   46 ,   the   earthquake   Psalm   for   Californias .   God&#39;s   their   refuge   and   strength ,   a   very   present   help   in   an   earthquake .   No ,   it   doesn&#39;t   say   that   in   times   of   trouble ,   but   yeah ,   so   that ,   yeah ,   you&#39;re   right .   Every   way   you   look ,   there&#39;s   just   promises   from   God   about   trouble .

          You   know ,   in   Psalm   46 ,   when   you   talk   about   that   in   verse   10   it   says   be   still   and   know   that   I&#39;m   gone .   I   like   the   Hebrew   rendering   of   that .   It&#39;s   literally   it&#39;s   cease   your   striving   and   let   me   show   you   that   I&#39;m   gone .

          That&#39;s   great .   I   love   that .   This   is   one   of   my   absolute   favorite   Psalms .   It&#39;s   Psalm   131 .   I   love   it .   It&#39;s   short ,   it&#39;s   brief ,   but   the   depth   of   it .   Lord ,   my   heart   is   not   haughty ,   nor   my   eyes   lofty .   Neither   do   I   concern   myself   with   great   matters ,   nor   with   things   too   profound   for   me .   Surely ,   I   have   calmed   and   quieted   my   soul   like   a   weaned   child   with   his   mother .   Like   a   weaned   child   is   my   soul   within   me .   Oh   Israel ,   hope   in   the   Lord   from   this   time   forth   and   forever .   I   love   that ,   you   know ,   like   a   weaned   child .   I   mean ,   I   have   two   grandkids .   One   of   them   now   is   he&#39;s   only   six   or   seven   weeks   and   you   know   he&#39;s   in   the   nursing   phase   and   you   know   that   when   that   time   comes   and   the   child   is   weaned   and   at   rest   and   at   peace ,   and   it&#39;s   just   like   ah   that&#39;s   how   I   want   my   soul   to   be   in   the   Lord .

          You ,   you   reading .   That   was   just   a   tonic   the   way   you   read   it   and   it   just   gave   me   an   idea .   I   signed   a   contract   I   can   use   Psalm   91   of   the   New   King   James   version   and   record   it .   I   haven&#39;t   done   it ,   but   I&#39;d   like   us   four   to   do   it .   We   can   do   like   30   Psalms   each   Harmonize .

          I   just   love   the   way   you   read   easy   and   same   Oscar   and   Mark   the   way   you   read .   I   think   it&#39;d   be   a   tonic   for   the   four   of   us   just   to   go   through   Psalms ,   not   commenting ,   but   just   reading   them .   People   can   listen   to   that .

          Yeah ,   so   so   many .   I   mean   just   a   few   more   quick   ones .   Psalm   3418 ,   the   Lord   is   near   to   those   who   have   a   broken   heart   and   saved   such   as   have   a   contrite   spirit .   You   didn&#39;t   read   that .   I   should   normally   read   it .   Read   it   like   he&#39;s   a   reader   Psalm   147 ,   3 ,   he   heals   the   broken   hearted   and   binds   up   their   wounds .   You   like   that   right   A   little   reverb   there .

          Psalm   41   to   2, .   I   waited   patiently   for   the   Lord   and   he   inclined   to   me   and   he   heard   my   cry .   He   also   brought   me   out ,   up   out   of   a   horrible   pit ,   out   of   the   Myrie   clay ,   and   set   my   feet   upon   a   rock   and   established   my   steps .   You   know ,   I   mean ,   and   you   envision   times   in   your   life   where   you   feel   like   it&#39;s   the   end   of   the   rope .   I   mean ,   I&#39;ve   said   it   many   times   it&#39;s   like   sometimes   I   feel   I   fall   off   the   edge   of   a   cliff .   I&#39;m   flying   toward   the   ground   and   right   before   my   nose   hits   it   and   I   splat ,   I   feel   this   tug   and   I   look   up   as   I&#39;m   going   back   up .   The   Lord   had   me   by   my   suspenders   the   whole   time .   It&#39;s   my   feet   back   upon   that   rock   and   establishes   me .   So   yeah ,   friends ,   we   can   go   on   and   on ,   and   on ,   and   on ,   and   on .

          There&#39;s   a   lot   of   good   ones ,   you   know   it&#39;s .   I   don&#39;t   know   if   we   did   this   on   purpose   or   not ,   but   we   skipped   Psalm   1 .   Psalm   1   is   so   important   because   it&#39;s   actually   it   kind   of   gives   precedence   for   all   of   the   Psalms .   It&#39;s   an   introduction   for   every   Psalm   that   comes   after   it .   And   I   just   want   to   read   it   here .   And   I   think   the   thing   that&#39;s   important   to   recognize   as   I   read   this   is   you   know ,   we   live   in   a   culture   where   we   want   to   pretend   like   everything   is   a   spectrum ,   but   the   scriptures   often   speak   in   binaries .   You   were   either   born   in   sin ,   under   Adam&#39;s   reign   and   rule ,   or   you   were   born   again   in   heritages   of   Christ&#39;s   righteousness .   There   is   no   binary ,   I&#39;m   sorry ,   there   is   no   spectrum   between   and   here   Psalm   1   gives   us   two ,   it   gives   us   a   binary .   You&#39;re   one   of   these   two   people .   Here   it   is .

          Blessed   is   the   man   who   walks   not   in   the   council   of   the   wicked ,   nor   stands   in   the   way   of   sinners ,   nor   sit   in   the   seat   of   scoffers ,   but   his   delight   is   in   the   law   of   the   Lord   and   on   his   law   he   meditates   day   and   night .   He   is   like   a   tree   planted   by   streams   of   water   that   yields   its   fruit   and   its   season   and   its   leaf   does   not   wither ,   and   all   he   does ,   he   prospers .   The   wicked   are   not   so ,   but   are   like   chaff   that   the   wind   drives   away .   Therefore ,   the   wicked   will   not   stand   in   the   judgment ,   nor   sinners   in   the   congregation   of   the   righteous ,   for   the   Lord   knows   the   way   of   the   righteous ,   but   the   way   of   the   wicked   will   perish .   You   have   in   that   Psalm   the   way   of   the   righteous   and   the   way   of   the   wicked .   And   all   150   Psalms ,   all   149   that   follow   after   Psalm   1 ,   shows   us   the   way   of   the   righteous ,   and   so   we   should   turn   it   into   our   own   playlists   and   for   our   own   lives ,   that   we   meditate   on   and   memorize   and   pray   through .

          Amen ,   friends ,   and   and   remember .   Sometimes ,   I   think ,   as   men   especially ,   we   can   get   this   idea   that   the   Psalms   are   a   little   too   soft   for   us .   Don&#39;t   forget   who   King   David   was ,   mighty   King   David ,   the   one   who   who   slayed   Goliath ,   the   one   who   was   noted   for   having   killed   his   tens   of   thousands ,   and   he   was   known   as   the   sweet   psalmist   of   Israel .   And   so   soak   your   soul   in   the   Psalms   and ,   and ,   and   see   the   faithfulness   and   the   goodness   of   God .   Let   them   be   your   comfort ,   your   help   and   your   encouragement .
