Download or read book The Psalms for Everyday Living written by David J. McKinley and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-06-18 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In these turbulent times we need a strong anchor. This one-year devotional invites you to explore the anchoring wisdom of the Psalms, lovingly amplified through the insights of a spiritual giant, Charles Spurgeon. Written over a span of twenty years, his multi-volume commentary, The Treasury of David, is the basis for these daily meditations. Far from shallow sentimentalism, Spurgeon leads us into a greater understanding of the important biblical truths of the Christian faith. He also draws us deeper into the psalmists’ interior lives. Spurgeon’s own physical and emotional suffering heightened his awareness of the psalmists’ personal struggles, prayers, and ultimate dependence on the Father. Never pulling us to despair, Spurgeon rather lifts our eyes to see how God works in our world and through his people. Through these reflections on the Psalms, Spurgeon invites us into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ, an unswerving commitment to the church, an increasing love for a hurting world, and living for God’s glory. Start your days with this devotional guide and you will be oft-reminded that we may have weeping in the night, but joy comes in the morning.

In Life Without Lack, Dallas Willard revolutionizes our understanding of Psalm 23 by taking this comfortably familiar passage and revealing its extraordinary promises: "The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want...Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil." Written with Willard's characteristic gentle wisdom, Life Without Lack helps you experience: God's comforting presence God's abundant generosity Peace and freedom from worry Based on a series of talks by the late author and edited by his friend Larry Burtoft and by his daughter, Rebecca Willard Heatley, Life Without Lack will forever change the way you experience the most well-known passage in all of Scripture. Praise for Life Without Lack: "Dallas Willard helps us to understand that the Twenty-Third Psalm is not meant as a nice sentiment or for kitschy decor, it is for the very thick of our lives, the very moment of crisis. Imagine what our personal lives, families, communities, and politics would look like if we rejected the frantic striving of our day, and instead embraced the life without lack offered to us in Jesus Christ. No one has helped me to imagine and enter into that life more than Dallas Willard. I recommend this book with great joy and hopeful expectation." --Michael Wear, bestselling author of Reclaiming Hope

Download or read book Open and Unafraid written by W. David O. Taylor and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2020-03-10 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A book you will want to read and read again." -- Eugene Peterson Afterword by Bono. How can we find a more transparent, resilient, and fearless life of faith? The book of Psalms has been central to God's people for millennia, across all walks of life and cultural contexts. In reading it, we discover that we are never alone in our joys, sorrows, angers, doubts, praises, or thanksgivings. In it, we learn about prayer and poetry, honesty and community, justice and enemies, life and death, nations and creation. Open and Unafraid shows us how to read the psalms in a fresh, life-giving way, and so access the bottomless resources for life that they provide. "David Taylor’s take is 'open and unafraid' alright. He really goes there, exposing himself before God in the most beautiful way. He might have called the book Naked, because if you don’t find your own self feeling a little exposed here, it might be time to take some armor off." -- Bono, from the Afterword "A book that you will want to read and read again, and yet again, in order to discover the wisdom of the Psalms that shows us how to walk in the life-giving way of Jesus." -- Eugene Peterson, from the Foreword "A winsome, accessible entry into the Book of Psalms…Connects the poetry of the psalms to real-life wonders and struggles." -- Walter Brueggemann, Columbia Theological Seminary "Taylor reads these biblical prayers with Dr. Seuss, rappers, and other poets, along with theologians and the daily news....Guides readers in tracing out patterns of holy speech that have the potential for healing our hearts and our communities." -- Ellen F. Davis, Duke Divinity School "I have always loved the psalms--for their defiant devotion, their deep joy, and their brutal yet beautiful honesty. And after reading this fantastic book about them, I love them even more." -- Matt Redman, worship leader and song writer "In these fraught and fearsome days, we need the psalms more than ever. And we need more faithful artists and thinkers like David Taylor to mine the infinite gifts the psalms offer across the ages." -- Karen Swallow Prior, author of Fierce Convictions

Download or read book The Secrets of the Psalms written by J. E. Charles and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-10 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Jesus was dying on the cross for our sins, three of the seven statements he made at this critical moment of his life were from a single Old Testament book, the Book of Psalms. First, he cried out, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" which was a quotation from Psalm 22:1. Later, he said, "I thirst," a quotation from Psalm 69:21. Finally, he prayed, "Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit," words drawn from Psalm 31:5. At the key moment in his life, our Savior drew his strength from Book of Psalms. Jesus made four other statements while he hung on the cross-"Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do"; "Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise"; "Woman, behold thy son!" and "It is finished"-but the only Scripture he quoted while on the cross came from the Book of Psalms. In his hour of deepest need, he found his help in the psalms.This book is written to teach you to do the same!Understanding the PsalmsWhat is a Psalm?A Biblical psalm is a Spirit-inspired prayer, originally voiced in song, addressing the need of a human heart-a need for mercy and forgiveness, a need for miraculous help (for healing or deliverance or protection, for example), the need to praise and worship the Creator, the need for guidance or comfort or justice or strength, or even the need to complain and question. The psalms address these and every other human need under the sun. The exciting thing is this: Because the psalms are Spirit-anointed prayers, they have the ability to tap into the presence and power of Heaven on behalf of everyone who reads and prays them, including you and me! That is why the Lord included them in his written Word, to make them available to his people down through the ages so that he could do miracles in their lives.
