Psalm 89-93: Christ Our New King June 6, 2021 Message: Take a Few
Psalm 89-93: Christ Our New King June 6, 2021 Message: Take a few moments to review the message notes from Sunday. What was your main takeaway from this message? Digging Deeper: Small Group Discussion 1.) What stood out to you? 2.) (Psalm 89) From the people’s perspective… their reality did not align with all of God’s promises. What happens when your reality fails to align with what you know to be true about God? 3.) (Psalm 90) In verse 12, what do you think it means when Moses says, “Teach us to number our days so that we may gain a heart of wisdom.”? 4.) (Psalm 91) God is our protection in verses 9 and 10, is God’s protection available to everyone? 5.) (Psalm 91:10) Does God’s protection mean Christians are immune from all harm? 6.) Satan quotes verse 11 to Jesus in the wilderness (Luke 4:9-12). The devil would like us to think that God’s promises have failed especially if He lets us suffer. Where does verse 15 say God will be? 7.) When the Israelites were tested in the wilderness they fell for Satan’s temptations. When Jesus was tested by Satan in the wilderness, He resisted temptation. What type of guidance does he model for us? 8.) (Psalm 92) This chapter is titled “A Song for the Sabbath Day.” It was written to be sung in community on the sabbath day. What do verses 1-4 teach us about praising God? 9.) (Psalm 93) This chapter reminds us the Lord reigns over all.

The Psalms As Hymns in the Temple of Jerusalem Gary A
4 The Psalms as Hymns in the Temple of Jerusalem Gary A. Rendsburg From as far back as our sources allow, hymns were part of Near Eastern temple ritual, with their performers an essential component of the temple functionaries. 1 These sources include Sumerian, Akkadian, and Egyptian texts 2 from as early as the third millennium BCE. From the second millennium BCE, we gain further examples of hymns from the Hittite realm, even if most (if not all) of the poems are based on Mesopotamian precursors.3 Ugarit, our main source of information on ancient Canaan, has not yielded songs of this sort in 1. For the performers, see Richard Henshaw, Female and Male: The Cu/tic Personnel: The Bible and Rest ~(the Ancient Near East (Allison Park, PA: Pickwick, 1994) esp. ch. 2, "Singers, Musicians, and Dancers," 84-134. Note, however, that this volume does not treat the Egyptian cultic personnel. 2. As the reader can imagine, the literature is ~xtensive, and hence I offer here but a sampling of bibliographic items. For Sumerian hymns, which include compositions directed both to specific deities and to the temples themselves, see Thorkild Jacobsen, The Harps that Once ... : Sumerian Poetry in Translation (New Haven: Yale University Press, 1987), esp. 99-142, 375--444. Notwithstanding the much larger corpus of Akkadian literarure, hymn~ are less well represented; see the discussion in Alan Lenzi, ed., Reading Akkadian Prayers and Hymns: An Introduction, Ancient Near East Monographs (Atlanta: Society of Biblical Literature, 2011), 56-60, with the most important texts included in said volume. For Egyptian hymns, see Jan A%mann, Agyptische Hymnen und Gebete, Orbis Biblicus et Orientalis (Gottingen: Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht, 1999); Andre Barucq and Frarn;:ois Daumas, Hymnes et prieres de /'Egypte ancienne, Litteratures anciennes du Proche-Orient (Paris: Cerf, 1980); and John L.

Psalms-Quiet-Times.Pdf
Psalms 90-106 Over the next 20 days, let us rest in the book of Psalms. The collection of Book 4 (Psalms 90-106) follows a myriad of exilic and post-exilic laments. In response to the devastation of Jerusalem, Psalm 90 begins recalling that God has been their “dwelling place through all generations.” At the centre of these Psalms is a celebration of God’s reign as King, ending with two Psalms retelling Israel’s history. These quiet times use a fairly standard method of Bible reading with a series of questions to have in mind as you read and reflect. The aim of these questions is to keep your mind and heart engaged throughout, rather than just going through the motions. The standard questions we will ask are: What stands out? What questions do you have? How does the reading point to Jesus? What could you pray? Who could you encourage? You may come to the end of a reading and think, ‘wow, I cannot figure out how that points to Jesus and I have no idea how the passage would help me encourage anyone’. That’s fine! The standard questions we will use may not fit every passage. However, they are important to ask none the less, as they keep us open to the Spirit’s leading as we read. I also like to recommend the Australian Christian band “Sons of Korah” as a wonderful companion to this series. They have composed beautiful versions of Psalm 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 99, 100, 103. You can listen to their music on Spotify, Itunes & Youtube.

Small Group Guide PSALMS 92, 99, & 100 the Church at Brook Hills June 15, 2014 Psalms 92, 99, & 100
Small Group Guide PSALMS 92, 99, & 100 The Church at Brook Hills June 15, 2014 Psalms 92, 99, & 100 Use this resource as a tool to help Christ-followers move forward in their spiritual growth. To do this well requires that the Small Group Leader is building a relationship with the individuals in the small group and has identified where the people are in their relationship with God. Are they Christ- followers? Are they growing in Christ? If so, in what areas do they need to grow further? As disciple- makers, Small Group Leaders shepherd people to know the truth of Scripture, to understand why it matters, and to apply it to their lives. Small Group Leaders come alongside those whom they disciple to discover how loving God, loving each other, and loving those not yet in the Kingdom should shape how they live. The structure of this resource coincides with moving people from knowledge to understanding to application. Utilize this Small Group Guide as a flexible teaching tool to inform your time together and not as a rigid task list. GETTING STARTED Before Small Group Readings for June 16-22 Deuteronomy 21:1-28:19, and Psalm 108:1-119:24 Where We Are In The Story (Deuteronomy) Background of Deuteronomy: Deuteronomy picks up with Moses’ word from the Lord to the Israelites at Mount Horeb at the end of their forty years of wilderness wanderings. Deuteronomy presents the Law (much of what is in Exodus, Leviticus, and Numbers) in a preached format, and it contains three of Moses’ sermons to the people of Israel that both rehearse their history and instruct them in how they are to live as God’s people in the Land of Promise.

Siddur for Shabbat
úáùì øåãéñ Siddur for Shabbat úáùì øåãéñ Siddur for Shabbat David Singer, Editor Berkeley Hillel 5763 2003 i ii Contents Preface iv On Usage v Shabbat Evening Service 1 Shabbat Morning Service 43 Havdalah 95 Supplementary Prayers 97 Songs 103 iii Preface This siddur was first created by the Reform minyan at UC Berkeley, California in the spring of 2003. In deciding to compile this siddur, students embarked on an ambitious process: how could they best combine over twenty distinct creative service packets into one inclusive and comprehensive siddur which would suit the needs of the Berkeley Reform Jewish community’s prayer in all circumstances for years to come? Further, the prayer service, while in need of energy and creativity, was also worthy of respect and in due need of a certain amount of structure which service packets could not provide. It is our hope that this siddur meets that need, and accordingly that it can and will be used for Erev and Shacharit Shabbat and Havdalah services as well as song sessions. Further, it is our hope that this siddur will help to meet the same need in other youth and young adult minyanim for years to come. We thank the many people who have helped to make this siddur a reality, especially to those who spent countless hours compiling and editing. To David Singer, Melissa Loeffler, Jill Cozen-Harel, Becky Gimbel, David Abraham and Athalia Markowitz special thanks are due. The original printing of this siddur would not be possible if not for the generous financial support provided by Temple Beth El of Berkeley, CA.

Psalm 92 Sing out 29.07.2018

Unless otherwise indicated, Scripture quotations are from the Holy Bible, English Standard Version, published by HarperCollins Publishers © 2001 by Crossway Bibles, a division of Good News Publishers. Used by permission. All rights reserved. Sing Out! Read Psalm 92 One of the things I’ve discovered when I’ve worked with young children is that what you see tends to be what you get. They haven’t yet learned the art of putting a filter over what they are feeling, and what they are thinking, and it ends up being displayed on their faces for everyone to see. Take a children’s choir singing at a school concert. It is very clear that some of them are enjoying themselves – wide open mouths, faces full of delight and eyes sparkling. Their singing is a sound of joy. For others, it is very clear that they would rather be anywhere else but in the choir at that point in time. Their mouths are barely open, their faces look like thunder and there is no life in their singing. They clearly don’t want to be there. They clearly don’t want to sing. I wonder, when we come to church week by week and we sing together in our services, do you ever find yourself feeling like that second group of children? If you’re honest, you really don’t want to be singing. It’s something you have to do but you don’t delight in it, there is no joy in it.
