Experiencing God in the Psalms
Experiencing God in the Psalms; for millennia people turned to the Psalms for comfort and strength in times of sorrow. Even those marginally acquainted with God find themselves searching for encouragement. How often have God’s people opened the Psalms to meditate on the beauty of His Holiness. The Psalms, God’s own Hymn Book written for us by God’s Spirit. By the breathe of the Spirit of God we are born again! Our faith in Jesus Christ we become children of God. Out of the very heart of God are born hymns to inform, encourage, and draw us into the presence of God!
The Psalms have inspired the Prophets and Apostles throughout all scripture. From Jonah, Peter, Jeremiah, Isaiah to the last chapter of Revelation, the Holy Spirit points us back to the glory of the Psalms. Example: from Psalm 22, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” Some of the last words of our Savior from the cross. Dr. Morey’s new translation seeks to return the Psalms to the form in which they were written. He has, daringly removed the sixteenth-century imposed chapter and verse references. This is the attempt to show new insights of the Psalms. As you read these translations you should find yourself enabled to follow the heart of the author of the psalms with a new clarity.
