Study Questions
  1. Read 2 Samuel 22:1. Since the author’s description of when David wrote this Psalm is ambiguous, when do you think he did so? Why does this matter?
  2. Read 2 Samuel 22:2-4. List all of the ways in which David describes the Lord. How did David come to know these things? How deeply did he feel them? To what did David attribute his deliverance from his enemies?
  3. Read 2 Samuel 22:5-20. What was David facing in life? What did he do in response to his situation? How did the Lord respond?
  4. Read 2 Samuel 22:21-31. How did David understand himself in the midst of his distress? Did he think he was perfect? In his mind, what was the relationship between his character and the Lord’s deliverance?
  5. Read 2 Samuel 22:32-46. How did David understand the relationship between his success and the Lord’s work in his life?
  6. Read 2 Samuel 22:47-51. What specific reasons does David give for glorifying the Lord in his heart and in the world?
  7. What’s the most important thing you learned from the sermon and your personal study?
  8. How has today’s message helped you to grow in love for God and others?
  9. What is the most important thing Jesus would have you do in light of 2 Samuel 22?
  10. Take some time to worship Jesus. Thank him, praise him, and ask for his help as you seek to strive with other believers for the faith of the gospel.

To Have My Soul Happy in the Lord, by George Muller

By Anonymous
To Have My Soul Happy in the Lord By George Muller “It has pleased the Lord to teach me a truth, the benefit of which I have not lost for more than fourteen years. The point is this: I saw more clearly than ever that the first great and primary business to which I ought to attend every day was to have my soul happy in the Lord. The first thing to be concerned about was not how much I might serve the Lord, or how I might glorify the Lord, but how I might get my soul into a happy state, and how my inner man might be nourished. “I saw that the most important thing I had to do was to give myself to the reading of the Word of God—not prayer, but the Word of God. And here again, not the simple reading of the Word of God so that it only passes through my mind just as water runs through a pipe, but considering what I read, pondering over it, and applying it to my heart. To meditate on it, that thus my heart might be comforted, encouraged, warned, reproved, instructed. And that thus,...

Meditations on the Glory of Christ: He Sits at the Right Hand of God

By
In Hebrews 1:2-4, the author makes seven claims about Jesus that when taken together greatly exalt his glory. The seventh claim the author makes about the Son is that, having made purification for sins, he now sits at the right hand of the Majesty on high. The words “he sat down” set the stage for chapter 7 where we’re taught that Jesus is both Priest and King. Prior to Jesus, no king offered his own sacrifices and no priest sat on the throne of David, for that wouldn’t be right. God had decreed that there should be a separation of powers between the priest and the king, but Jesus, unlike all before him, is worthy and able to fulfill both roles. So, on the one hand, Jesus sat down at the right hand of God after making purification for sins because the sacrifice he offered, namely himself, is sufficient. Other priests were always standing, as we see in chapter 10:11-14, because their work was never done. The blood of bulls and goats can never take away sins, so the priests could...
