Summary

As we prepared ourselves for our gathering (where we examined Psalm 20), we encouraged our church to spend some time reading over and trying to understand the main theme and rhythm of Psalm 18.Why? Well, the reason for doing so is that David, in Psalm 18, reflects upon how God has delivered him from all of his enemies. Then, in Psalm 20, David builds upon what he has already said and turns to ask God to deliver King Jesus in similar ways. Thus, the themes of these two Psalms are tied together under the banner of deliverance for the King, with David asking God to do for King Jesus (Psalm 20) what God did for him (Psalm 18). As such, Psalm 20 is often referred to as a Royal Psalm; sung about the coming promised King who would fulfill the promise of God given to David in 2 Samuel 7. Therefore, it is a song of faith on the day of trouble, remembering how God saved David and pointing to how Jesus would be delivered on His day of greatest trouble. Through it all, we see how God never fails to do all that He has promised.

Episode Description

As we prepared ourselves for our gathering (where we examined Psalm 20), we encouraged our church to spend some time reading over and trying to understand the main theme and rhythm of Psalm 18.
Why? 
Well, the reason for doing so is that David, in Psalm 18, reflects upon how God has delivered him from all of his enemies. 
Then, in Psalm 20, David builds upon what he has already said and turns to ask God to deliver King Jesus in similar ways. 
Thus, the themes of these two Psalms are tied together under the banner of deliverance for the King, with David asking God to do for King Jesus (Psalm 20) what God did for him (Psalm 18). 
As such, Psalm 20 is often referred to as a Royal Psalm; sung about the coming promised King who would fulfill the promise of God given to David in 2 Samuel 7. 
Therefore, it is a song of faith on the day of trouble, remembering how God saved David and pointing to how Jesus would be delivered on His day of greatest trouble. Through it all, we see how God never fails to do all that He has promised.

Kootenai Church Morning Worship: 1 Peter Dave Rich 1 Peter was written to teach us how to remain faithful and content in the midst of the heavy trials of our mortal life on earth, this "time of your sojourn." We are taught the purpose and character of trials, seeing in them the sanctifying work of the Spirit revealing the genuineness of our God-given and, therefore, invincible, enduring faith.This series of messages was part of an exposition of the book of 1 Peter by Dave Rich, a pastor at Kootenai Community Church. Rainbow Trail, The by Zane Grey (1872 - 1939) LibriVox The Rainbow Trail is a sequel to The Riders of the Purple Sage. Both novels are notable for their protagonists' mild opposition to Mormon polygamy, but in The Rainbow Trail this theme is treated more explicitly. The plots of both books revolve around the victimization of women in the Mormon culture: events in Riders of the Purple Sage are centered on the struggle of a Mormon woman who sacrifices her wealth and social status to avoid becoming a junior wife of the head of a local church, while The Rainbow Trail contrasts the older Mormons with the rising generation of Mormon women who will not tolerate polygamy and Mormon men who do not seek it.
