Summary

Psalm 119Psalm 119 is not merely a lengthy poetic meditation, it is a heartfelt, Spirit-breathed testimony of a soul who clings to the work of God in a world of affliction and ambiguity. The Psalm is not dry legalism, nor abstract theology, but the honest, often painful voice of a believer navigating the tensions of obedience to the Lord in a world that's hostile to the Lord. The poet is hemmed in by trouble (v23, 61, 95). He is slandered, oppressed, and yet he rises again and again to the work of God - not simply as a text , but as the living voice of the loving God who speaks to his people. Psalm 119 is the prayer of someone who loves God because he knows God has first loved him.This sermon was given on the 17th of August by Tim Sandell and based on Psalm 119:65-80.
