Psalm 67 - Our Missionary God

"Our Missionary God" (Psalm 67) David Miller, Pastor of Membership and Missions at McGregor Baptist Church, preaches through Psalm 67, an ancient harvest song that Israel sang while bringing in crops from the land God had given them. But the psalm is about more than the harvest. It is about the reason God blesses his people at all. The requests in verse one, drawn from the priestly blessing of Numbers 6, are made with a clear purpose in verse two: that God's way would be known on earth and his saving power made known among all nations. That purpose runs all the way back to God's promise to Abraham in Genesis 12, and it runs forward to the church today. Pastor David works through three movements in the psalm: the requests of God's people, the reasons behind those requests, and the results that follow. Along the way, he addresses why God's people have reason for joy, why his governance brings gladness, and what it means that salvation is not just transactional but familial. The sermon closes with a direct, pastoral challenge: if God saved us, he saved us to send us.   Sermon Notes April 26, 2026 David Miller, Pastor of Membership and Missions Presented by McGregor Podcast 2026 Visit Our Website at McGregorPodcast.com New to McGregor?
