The darkest lament in the psalms, with one prayer that God will listen to him.... and then he weeps till the end.... hope will come in Psalm 89 when 'i will sing of the Lord forever'
The Word of God about the apocalyptic trumpetsBilly Dean
„Oh, and it is the same with this work of word coming out of My mouth all this time, for I, the Lord, am the First and the Last and I am this word, and I feed with it those in heaven and I feed their patience as well, and with it I call out to the man to come and drink and to see how good God is ...”
All the world under sin - what the Psalms have to sayMichael Scaman
A blessed man, a blessed God and a broken world. The problems and pains and a resolution for God's glory.
We go through each of the 5 books of Psalms (very very briefly) and see how each paints pictures of a world in sin needing a savior in order to 'come home'.
What you say is very important to God. He is not casual about spoken words. Your words are your fruit, your produce, and you are known by the fruit you bear. Do your words give life? Or are they poisonous? You choose your own words.
The Word of God about the apocalyptic fireBilly Dean
„...what happened to Sodom and Gomorrah and what happened with the world at the time of the Flood, the same it will happen with this world too.
... When the earth will be put on fire, My faithful ones will not be burned.
...The earth is stuffed to the brink with weapons of fire. When they burst out they will turn the earth upside down.”
The Word of God about the wedding of the LambBilly Dean
„I have always told you that the day of My wedding with you is coming on the earth, and the multitudes will come together to see you with Me, Jerusalem, son of My wedding, people of My coming, as I am coming and having the wedding in you, and when I have the days of wed-ding with you, I, the Bridegroom and you, the bride, oh, the saints are coming together with Me on your day with the Lord, as I, the Lord, am Your Bridegroom.”
The Word of God about the Great TribulationBilly Dean
„Oh, My people, the earth will no longer bring forth fruit, from east to south and from west to north, and you will no longer have anything to eat. What will you have to eat anymore?
The water will run dry. You will no longer have anything to drink, and this will be done for the tribulation and for the sufferance of the sinners, so that they may turn back.”

This is a study of Jesus leading to springs in heaven. He is still our Shepard in heaven and leads to the water of life. He makes sure all the pleasures of eternity are enjoyed by the saints.

The sweetest song (1988) - Richard Wurmbrand
"For God so loved the world, that He gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16
"Car Dieu a tant aimé le monde qu'il a donné son Fils unique, afin que quiconque croit en lui ne périsse point, mais qu'il ait la vie éternelle." Jean 3:16
"Also hat Gott die Welt geliebt, daß er seinen eingeborenen Sohn gab, auf daß alle, die an ihn glauben, nicht verloren werden, sondern das ewige Leben haben." Johannes 3:16
"Fiindca atat de mult a iubit Dumnezeu lumea, ca a dat pe singurul Lui Fiu, pentru ca oricine crede in El sa nu piara, ci sa aiba viata vesnica." (Ioan 3:16)
Just like you can't park your car in certain places, there are spiritual "no parking zones." You can't park in sin; you can't park in spiritual infancy; and you can't park in fear! These are no parking zones yet many have comfortably settled into these areas.
The Word of God about the apocalyptic trumpetsBilly Dean
"I am The Lord Jesus Christ. I am not body, but spirit. I have descended with The Holy Spirit on Earth to choose a nation and to tell them about the mysteries for this time. I am God’s Word and I have come to speak on Earth,..."
A look at where and how the phrase 'right hand of God appears in the book of Psalms. It appears concentrated mainly in three places.
- Around songs of the 1st Exodus
- Around songs of the 2nd Exodus
- In the laments of longings of 'How long?' in between
In all these cases, salvation is highlighted
MY apology for adding another book of conso-
lation to the number of like publications,
and of imitating such models as have before found
favor with the sorrowing, is twofold.
First, the wealth of such literature ever increases,
and, like the ripe harvest, ought to be gathered,
even though the granary seem already quite full.
Second, an important part of every true pastor's
labor is to comfort those that mourn. It is with
the devout hope that among the varied selections
here offered ministers may find some aid in cheering
the sorrowing that this little volume is sent forth.
The Word of God - The dead hear My voiceBilly Dean
„My word is the iron with which I rule the visible and invisible world, those in heaven and on earth and in hades;
The Word was in the beginning and I was the Word in the beginning. Here I am as Word in the end, for I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end, ...
And now I speak again with My mouth and My voice is heard beyond the dwelling of the dead, and these get ready for the resurrection.”
The word of god about the fearful judgmentBilly Dean
„The same way you will not stand the condemnation judgment. The judgment is here; it will be in Romania.”
„Sons, I tell you another mystery: My angel will cover you when the judgment will be sounded for the world, and for the dead, the resurrection. You will look and you will not be able to see the world, and neither will the world be able to see you, the world that will run after you.”
The Word of God about what defiles a man, what enters or what comes out of him?Billy Dean
„The day comes when for a meal you stay out of the garden, for Adam was driven out of the garden for a meal.”
„Oh beloved, food and self-indulgence brought the man Adam out of Eden. Food and disobedience and immorality will fill the hell.
Christian, you get up at night and you cannot say your prayer, but can do other bad things and the whole hours pass this way.”

Adjacent psalms that tell a story part 10 - A blessed man who is also a poo...Michael Scaman
A blessed but poor man betrayed. Psalms 40 and 41 are quoted in the New Testament related to Jesus betrayal
Blessed are those who consider the poor man, particularly the man who was rich who became poor that we might be rich in him
Unexpected Discord In The Flow of Psalms: part 1 - Psalms 1 though 14 Michael Scaman
Places in the Psalms where we see unexpected contrasts in the flow of Psalms. For example we might go unexpectedly from rejoicing to lamenting. Psalms 1- Psalms 14 which is the start of Psalms book 1, Psalms 1 through 41.
The Son inherits the nations in Psalm 2 is contrasted with David on the run from his son in Psalm 3.
The man in Psalm 8 ruling in a special place in creation is contrasted with the man of the earth is Psalms 9 and 10 with laments following how long will evil go on and if indeed no one is righteous, no not one, then who can climb the mountain of God and dwell in His tent?
We compare this set of Psalms with the rest of Book 1. The son inherits the earth in Psalm 2. The meek inherits the earth in Psalm 37. We see Psalm book 1 as a literary parallel to Genesis where Psalm book 1 starts with a man who is like a tree of life and ends with a man like Joseph who is betrayed to save the World.
We see some themes come back later in Psalms such as "I am a green tree" in Psalm 52 or "there is no one good no not one", Psalm 14 repeated very closely in Psalm 53
Spurgeon, "This Psalm is apparently intended to accompany the third, and make a pair with it. If the last may be entitled THE MORNIG PSALM, this from its matter is equally deserving of the title of THE EVENING HYMN. May the choice words Psalms 4:8 be our sweet
song of rest as we retire to our repose!
"Thus with my thoughts composed to peace,
I will give mine eyes to sleep; Thy hand in safety keeps my days, And will my slumbers keep."
Psalm 42 deep calls to deep amidst thirst and turmoilMichael Scaman
In the first Psalm of book 2, Psalm 42 stands as an instructional psalm, both a lament as well as a lesson on what to pray if you have a disconnect between what you know about God's love and faithfulness and what your feelings are trying to tell you. Rather than mostly listening to feelings, the singer speaks to his feelings to encourage them to Hope in God.
The writer knows two things: God loves him and God is behind difficulties he faces. Rather than letting his feelings speak to him, The psalmist moves from a position of disconnection in his beliefs and feelings to connection and hoping in God.
Of the 13 psalms called masks, contemplative instructional psalms, 11 are in books 2 and 3, the priestly psalms that poetically correspond to Exodus and Leviticus. Psalm 42 is also a lament which is the most common category of psalms.
Psalms book 3: The dark book of the PsalmsMichael Scaman
Asaph sets the stage with a crisis of faith in Psalm 73 and the book ends with the darkest Psalm in all the Bible, Psalm 88. In the midst of the dark book of the Psalms, book 3, there is what Spurgeon called the sweetest Psalm and the center of the center of the center of that ( Ps 81:8 is 'if only My people would listen to Me and also arguably listen to me about the day of atonement alluded to in the middle of the two trumpets blown in vs ps 81:3 )
We look at the flow as Asaph, Sons of Korah, David, Heman and Ethan navigate through the darkness finding hope and resolution in God. 'Hope in God' one generation tells another in Psalm 77, even in the midst of these struggles.
Psalm 78 is a historical psalm and recounts failures of Israel particularly regarding temptations of food, power and worship. Jesus will go through these same temptations in the dessert yet prevail.
Psalm 81 is arguably the center psalm of the books. Center book is book 3 and in book 3 8 are before 8 after making psalm 81 the center psalm with the center verse being verse 8 'if only My people would listen to Me' and one can press it further with the two trumpets in verse 3, the center of those is the day of atonement. Book 3 is about crisis of faith and the other psalms and books revolve around that to resolve the crisis. There is hope since psalm 81 speaks of the man at God's right hand. Jesus listens to God where his people did not and is the one to resolve the crisis.
Books 2 and 3 are written largely by Levites and poetically follow Exodus and Leviticus. It is fitting that in the final two Psalms portend the ultimate sacrifice, the death of the Messiah, the anointed, the seed of David in psalm 88 with an upturn/resurrection in Psalm 89.
An lesser issue of book 3 concerns who Asaph is since the temples destruction would be future to the Asaph of David's day. Asaph was a seer so perhaps it's prophesy or perhaps from the musician group of levites founded by Asaph continuing to write psalms?
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms - Psalm 1 though 41 version 10 ppt PDF.pdfMichael Scaman
David's first book of Psalms was Psalms 1 through 41. Poetically like Genesis. It begins with a man who is like a tree of life and ends with a man like Joseph who is betrayed. Also like Genesis there is the inheritance of the land. The meek inherit the earth, in the Son, in God.
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms- book 5 - Psalm 107 though 150 version 8 p...Michael Scaman
Psalm book 5 is on the theme 'Coming Home' In prior books of Psalms the meek would inherit the earth but found themselves unfaithful and in exile. Now there is a redemptive resolution.
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms- book 5 - Psalm 107 though 150 version 7 p...Michael Scaman
Psalms book 5 is on the theme 'Coming home" or entering te promised land. Poetically Deuteronomy.
Not only sharing the same overarching theme, but similar structure.
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms- book 4 - Psalm 90 though 106 version 7 pp...Michael Scaman
Book 2 and 3 ended very differently to eachother. Book 2 ended with an idylic future. Book 3 ended with a present crisis. The key changes and discord continues in book 4.
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms- book 4 - Psalm 90 though 106 version 6 pp...Michael Scaman
Psalms book 4 stands in contrast with books 2 which ended with an idylic future and book 3 which ends in a present crisis
The meek will inherit the earth as claimed in Psalm book 1 but not yet.
First there are trials and travails of this life and a retrospective and pro-spective in Book 4.
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms- book 4 - Psalm 90 though 106 version 4 pp...Michael Scaman
Book 4 of Psalms . Lots of contrasts. The sheperd king leads us through the trials and trails of life in this book which is a poetic takeoff on the book of Nubers
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms - Psalm 73 though 89 version 9 ppt.pdfMichael Scaman
The mountaintop mic drop of an ending of Psalms book 2 moves to a valley of struggle opening with 'surely God is good to Israel' in a book significantly concerning crisis of faith
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms - Psalm 73 though 89 version 8 ppt.pdfMichael Scaman
Following the MIC DROP mountain peak high which ends Psalms book 2, Psalm book 3 opens with a lament over national destruction and yet beings 'surefly God is good to Israel'
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms - Psalm 73 though 89 version 5 ppt.pdfMichael Scaman
Following the mountaintop experience of the ending of book 2. The mic drop psalm 72 is followed by a crisis of faith in book 3, but begins 'surely God is good to Israel'
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms - Psalm 42 though 72 version 11 ppt pdf.pdfMichael Scaman
Psalms book 2: Ps 42 to 72 has Jesus flipping the script from his troubles more than the hairs of His head to a comfort the God knows the hairs on your head. Many key changes and contrasts explored here.
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms - Psalm 42 though 72 version 1 ppt pdf.pdfMichael Scaman
Book1 of Psalms is poetically like Genesis. It starts with a man who is like a tree of life and ends wit a man who is betrayed like Joseph. Jesus quotes the final Psalm at the last supper.
Unexpected Discord In The Psalms - Psalm 1 though 41 version 10 ppt PDF.pdfMichael Scaman
The book of Pslams has a flow, sometimes unexpected. We see a praise in the midst of laments or a lament in the midst of praises. Why? Like a musical work where discord resolves to beauty some examples given here.
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
2 Peter 3: Because some scriptures are hard to understand and some will force them to say things God never intended, Peter warns us to take care.

3. Psalm 88 English Standard Version
(ESV)
A Song. A Psalm of the Sons of Korah. To the
choirmaster: according to Mahalath
Leannoth.
Somehow called a psalm which implies praise
but none seen in this psalm
4. A Maskil of Heman the Ezrahite.
Heman the wise.
Heman who had 12 sons and 2 daughters
he now tells of suffering much like Job
5. 88
O Lord, God of my salvation,
I cry out day and night before you.
‘God of my salvation’
that’s as hopeful as this psalm gets
God is called his salvation
6. 2
Let my prayer come before you;
incline your ear to my cry!
His one prayer in the psalm is that God will just listen to him
7. 3
For my soul is full of troubles,
and my life draws near to Sheol.
Jesus said ‘my soul is exceedingly troubled’
and so is the Psalmist
and then he weeps
8. 4
I am counted among those who go down to the pit;
I am a man who has no strength,
5
like one set loose among the dead,
like the slain that lie in the grave,
like those whom you remember no more,
for they are cut off from your hand.
6
You have put me in the depths of the pit,
in the regions dark and deep.
7
Your wrath lies heavy upon me,
and you overwhelm me with all your waves. Selah
He, like Job knew his sufferings
were in some sense from the hand of God
9. 8
You have caused my companions to shun me;
you have made me a horror to them.
I am shut in so that I cannot escape;
9
my eye grows dim through sorrow.
Every day I call upon you, O Lord;
I spread out my hands to you.
Like Job, once surrounded by family, friends and wife
now a pariah
10. six questions he asks
questions more akin to ‘why God?’
