In this episode of Moments of Worship, Missy Linkletter walks through Psalm 20, a powerful prayer offered by God's people before battle.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Moments of Worship, Pastor Keith explores Psalm 19:7–11, where David shifts from God's revelation in creation to His revelation in Scripture. While the heavens declare God's glory, His Word reveals His character, His will, and the path to life. David celebrates the perfection, trustworthiness, purity, and righteousness of God's Word, describing it as more valuable than gold and sweeter than honey. This passage reminds us that Scripture revives the soul, imparts wisdom, fills the heart with joy, and guides believers in faithful obedience.

Using powerful poetic imagery, David describes the Lord coming in holiness, power, and authority to act on behalf of His servant. The earth trembles, thunder resounds, and lightning flashes, reminding us that the God who created all things rules over all things. This episode encourages us to trust God's sovereign power, knowing that He is never indifferent to the cries of His people and that nothing can stand against His perfect purposes. Ultimately, this passage points us to Jesus Christ, who demonstrated the same divine authority over creation during His earthly ministry.

This passage reminds us of the importance of integrity before God, guarding our words, walking according to His Word, and approaching Him with confidence in prayer.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Moments of Worship, we begin our journey through Psalm 16 by examining David’s declaration of trust and devotion to God. David confesses that the Lord is his refuge, his greatest good, and the source of every blessing. We also see his delight in the fellowship of God’s people and his warning against the sorrow that comes from pursuing idols.

429. Who Shall Dwell with God? (Psalm 15)
Send us Fan MailPsalm 15 asks the most important question a sinner can ask: Who may dwell in the presence of a holy God? David’s answer reveals the perfect righteousness God requires and exposes our inability to meet His standard. The psalm ultimately points us to Jesus Christ, the only truly righteous One, who fulfilled every requirement on our behalf. Through faith in Christ, we are clothed in His righteousness, welcomed into God’s presence, and transformed by the Holy Spirit to pursue a life of holiness.

426. The Fool Says, There Is No God (Psalm 14)
Send us Fan MailPsalm 14 gives a sobering diagnosis of the human condition: apart from God’s grace, no one seeks Him and every part of our nature is corrupted by sin. Yet this psalm does not leave us in despair. The God who looked down from heaven and found no one righteous is the same God who sent Christ, the only righteous One, to seek and save sinners. Through His life, death, and resurrection, we are forgiven, declared righteous, and brought near to God by grace alone through faith alone.

425. Waiting, Trusting, Worshiping (Psalm 13)
Send us Fan MailHave you ever found yourself asking, "How long, Lord?" In this episode of Moments of Worship, Pastor Keith McMinn explores Psalm 13, one of David's most honest and heartfelt prayers. Drawing from his own season of waiting and questioning, Keith reflects on the journey from sorrow to trust that unfolds in this short but powerful psalm.David begins with questions, moves to a plea for God's help, and ultimately rests in the steadfast love of the Lord. Psalm 13 reminds us that faith is not the absence of questions but the decision to trust God's character when we cannot understand His purposes.Whether you are walking through uncertainty, disappointment, or a season of waiting, this episode will encourage you to bring your honest struggles to God, remember His faithfulness, and find hope in His unfailing love. Like David, we can move from asking "How long?" to declaring, "I will sing to the Lord, because He has dealt bountifully with me."

424. The Pure Words of the Lord (Psalm 12)
Send us Fan MailPsalm 12 contrasts the deceptive speech of fallen humanity with the pure and trustworthy words of God. While David laments a culture marked by lies, flattery, and pride, he finds hope in the Lord's promises. God's Word is completely true, perfectly pure, and utterly reliable. In a world where truth is often distorted, believers can confidently rest in every word that proceeds from God.

423. In You I Take Refuge (Psalm 11)
Send us Fan MailPsalm 11 calls believers to place their confidence in the Lord when evil appears to threaten the foundations of society. Rather than fleeing in fear, David takes refuge in the God who reigns from heaven. The Lord's throne is unshaken, His purposes cannot fail, and His justice will ultimately prevail. The hope of God's people rests not in earthly circumstances but in the sovereign King who rules over all things.

Through Scripture, we explore various aspects of prayer, including continual prayer, supplication, confession, adoration, surrender, and petition. As believers, we have direct access to our heavenly Father through Jesus Christ and are invited to bring every burden, need, and praise before Him. This episode offers both encouragement and practical reminders to cultivate a deeper life of prayer.

Send us Fan MailPsalm 10:1–11 contrasts the apparent success of the wicked with the sovereign rule of God. David honestly expresses the struggle of seeing evil prosper while affirming that the Lord remains fully aware and in control. The wicked live as though God neither sees nor judges, but Scripture assures us that God's justice is certain and His providence governs all things. Believers are called to trust Him even when His purposes are not immediately visible.

Send us Fan MailHave you ever felt overwhelmed by the weight of life? Maybe your circumstances feel bigger than you, and your heart feels weary. In today’s episode of Moments of Worship, Missy Linkletter reflects on Psalm 8, where David lifts his eyes to the majesty of God.

415. Worshiping the Righteous Judge (Psalm 7:12-17)
Send us Fan MailPsalm 7:12–17 reminds us that God is holy, patient, and just.

414. Trusting the Righteous Judge (Psalm 7:8-11)
Send us Fan MailPsalm 7:8–11 turns our attention to the righteous judgment and perfect knowledge of God. David places himself before the Lord with humility, inviting God to examine his heart and judge rightly. Rather than defending himself in his own strength, David trusts the God who sees beyond outward appearances and knows every motive and thought. The passage reminds us that God is both our righteous Judge and our faithful Shield. He sees injustice, is not indifferent toward evil, and protects those who place their trust in Him. This episode encourages listeners to examine their own hearts and rest in God's perfect wisdom and protection.

413. The Shelter of God (Psalm 7:1-7)
Send us Fan MailPsalm 7:1–7 reminds us that God alone is our true refuge and safety. Using the picture of a childhood fort, this episode contrasts temporary places of security with the lasting refuge found in the Lord. David begins with personal confidence in God, crying out, “my God,” and seeking deliverance from enemies that feel overwhelming like a lion. Yet before asking for justice, David also examines his own heart, showing humility and a willingness to be searched by God. Ultimately, David entrusts judgment and justice to the Lord rather than taking matters into his own hands. The episode encourages listeners to consider where they run for safety and to rest in the faithful refuge of God.

411. When We Don't Feel Like Meeting with God (Psalm 1)
Send us Fan MailThe Christian life has a rhythm to it. There are days when we are tired, busy, distracted, or simply do not feel like reading Scripture or praying. In those moments we may wonder if pursuing God out of duty still matters. The answer is yes.Psalm 1 calls us to meditate on God’s Word day and night. Just as a tree planted by streams of water continually receives what it needs to live and grow, believers need the continual nourishment of God’s truth. Faithful daily rhythms of Scripture, prayer, worship, and biblical teaching sustain us and strengthen us spiritually. Without them, our spiritual lives can become dry and weak.Whether you are studying for ministry, preparing to teach, singing Scripture-rich songs, listening to biblical teaching, or engaging with truth in everyday life, the goal is the same: fill your life with God’s Word so that you are transformed into the image of Christ, grow in delight for Him, and bear fruit for His kingdom.Duty in pursuing God often leads to delight in God.

409. Walking in God’s Way (Psalm 5:8-12)
Send us Fan MailPsalm 5:8–12 reminds us that in the midst of opposition, pressure, and temptation, our greatest need is not merely protection from enemies, but guidance into righteous living. David humbly asks God to lead him in His righteousness and to make His way straight before him. In contrast to the wicked — whose words are filled with falsehood, destruction, and empty flattery — David desires to walk in God’s truth and faithfulness.The Psalm also reveals David’s reverence for God’s holiness as he calls upon the Lord for divine justice rather than personal revenge. Yet the passage ends with a beautiful shift from judgment to joy. Those who take refuge in the Lord can rejoice, sing for joy, and rest under His protection. God surrounds His people with favor like a shield. For believers today, this Psalm is a reminder to seek God’s daily, speak truthfully, trust His justice, and find our joy and security in His faithful character.

God does not delight in wickedness and stands opposed to evil, pride, deceit, and violence. Yet through God’s steadfast love, David is welcomed into His presence in worshipful reverence.

406. The King Who Reigns (Psalm 2)

405. Our Shield in the Night (Psalm 3)
Send us Fan MailPsalm 3 reminds us that even when we are surrounded by fear, opposition, and discouragement, God remains our shield and sustainer.

404. Rooted in the Word (Psalm 1)
Send us Fan MailPsalm 1 paints a clear contrast between the righteous and the wicked. The blessed man refuses to be shaped by the counsel and influence of the world, but instead delights in the Word of God and meditates on it continually. As his life is rooted deeply in Scripture, he becomes like a tree planted by streams of water—stable, fruitful, and spiritually vibrant. In contrast, the wicked are like chaff, empty and unstable, ultimately facing judgment and destruction.

403. The Gospel and Our Identity (Identity)
Send us Fan MailGenesis 3 reveals how sin distorted humanity’s identity and relationship with God. Because of Adam’s fall, sin has affected every part of human nature, leading people to seek meaning and identity apart from their Creator.

-
380
402. Created to Reflect God (Identity)
Send us Fan MailIn this episode, we look back to God’s original design for humanity. Genesis teaches that mankind was specially created by God with purpose and intention, not by chance or random processes. Made in the image of God, we were created to know Him, worship Him, and reflect His glory in the world. As culture encourages people to define themselves apart from God, this episode reminds us that true identity and lasting purpose are only found in rightly relating to our Creator.
-
379
401. Resting from the Need to Prove Yourself (Identity)
Send us Fan MailIn this episode, we move from what identity is to where we often go wrong. Even as believers, we are tempted to root our identity in performance, the approval of others, or our shifting emotions—but none of these can bear the weight of who we are. Grounded in Galatians 2:20, this episode exposes the instability of misplaced identity and points us back to the only secure foundation: our life in Christ. When we understand that our old self has been crucified and Christ now lives in us, we are freed from striving to define ourselves and can rest in who He is.
-
378
400. You’re Not Who You Think You Are (Identity)
Send us Fan MailIn a world that defines identity by roles, performance, and feelings, Scripture points us somewhere deeper. In this episode, we begin by asking the most important question: Who are you? Discover how true identity is not something you achieve, but something you receive in Christ—and why being “in Him” changes everything.
