@Pathfinder7 "The sweet psalmist of Israel" indeed...

Now these be the last words of David. David the son of Jesse said, and the man who was raised up on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet psalmist of Israel, said,

2 The Spirit of the LORD spake by me, and his word was in my tongue.

3 The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to me, He that ruleth over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God.

4 And he shall be as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, even a morning without clouds; as the tender grass springing out of the earth by clear shining after rain.

5 Although my house be not so with God; yet he hath made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things, and sure: for this is all my salvation, and all my desire, although he make it not to grow.

(2 Samuel 23.1-5)

Good day,
Yes, I have, because of the pandemic, Psalm 91 became my favorite. Also, the longest psalm is a great source of knowledge.

"Praise ye the Lord from the heavens: praise ye him in the high places.

Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.

Praise ye him, O sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars and light.

Praise him, ye heavens of heavens: and let all the waters that are above the heavens

Praise the name of the Lord. For he spoke, and they were made: he commanded, and they were created.

He hath established them for ever, and for ages of ages: he hath made a decree, and it shall not pass away.

Praise the Lord from the earth, ye dragons, and all ye deeps:

Fire, hail, snow, ice, stormy winds which fulfill his word:

Mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all cedars:

Beasts and all cattle: serpents and feathered fowls:

Kings of the earth and all people: princes and all judges of the earth:

Young men and maidens: let the old with the younger, praise the name of the Lord:

For his name alone is exalted.

The praise of him is above heaven and earth: and he hath exalted the horn of his people. A hymn to all his saints: to the children of Israel, a people approaching to him. Alleluia." (Ps. 148)

Thanks, @soul !

@Trueman-Ron Coates Indeed, a favourite of mine, also; and it ties in with the Good Shepherd of John chapter 10.

Did you know that God will offend the mind to reveal the heart?

 

[farouk]

Did you know that God will offend the mind to reveal the heart?

@Trueman-Ron Coates Psalm 73.26 comes to mind: "My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever."

 

[Truman]

If one is not offended by the gospel, it is not the true gospel. If it is not the true gospel, it is a false gospel. Please don't quote chapter and verse to me, if it's not revelation given by God then it is an idol, which steers one away from God and to their destruction. If this doesn't apply to you then you won't be offended.
