"The Psalms are inexhaustible, and deserve to be read, said, sung, chanted, whispered, learned by heart, and even shouted from the rooftops. They express all the emotions we are ever likely to feel (including some we hope we may not), and they lay them, raw and open, in the presence of God." -NT Wright
GOD’S POWER DISPLAYS HIS HOLINESS
Psalm 68:1-4
"As well might a gnat seek to drink in the ocean, as a finite creature to comprehend the Eternal God. A God whom we could understand would be no God. If we could grasp Him, He could not be infinite. If we could understand Him, He could not be divine." -Charles Spurgeon
Exodus 15:11
GOD’S POWER DISPLAYS HIS GENTLENESS
Psalm 68:5-10
"God doth not govern the world only by his will as an absolute monarch, but by his wisdom and goodness as a tender father. It is not his greatest pleasure to show his sovereign power, or his inconceivable wisdom, but his immense goodness, to which he makes the other attributes subservient." -Stephen Charnock

Psalm 116: 1-4
1 John 5:14-15
“We sinned for no reason but an incomprehensible lack of love, and He saved us for no reason but an incomprehensible excess of love.” -Peter Kreeft“The gospel is this: We are more sinful and flawed in ourselves than we ever dared believe, yet at the very same time we are more loved and accepted in Jesus Christ than we ever dared hope.” -Timothy Keller
Romans 5:6
“Whenever we have to praise God, what do we do? We simply say what He is! ‘You are this and You are that.’ There is no other praise. We cannot fetch anything from anywhere else and bring it to God; the praises of God are simply the facts about Himself! If you want to praise the Lord Jesus Christ, tell the people about Him.” -Charles Spurgeon

Associate Pastor Eric Burch
David has found reconciliation with God through his acts of repentance and confession.
David knows that God will bring him, through life and death into everlasting joy because God was his only refuge, his sovereign Lord, his supreme treasure, and his trusted councilor and the same can be true for use today.
And finally, David’s confidence is due to the knowledge of the future atoning work of Jesus Christ on the cross; a work we know was fulfilled.
