Psalm 19:9-10

Good morning i’m Pastor Myah Abrams and welcome to our morning mediottions

Scripture

Yahweh’s Creation and Law

19 For the music director. A psalm of David.

1 The heavens are telling the glory of God,

and the firmament proclaims the work of his hands.

2 ⌊Every day⌋ they pour forth speech,

and ⌊every night⌋ they tell knowledge.

3 There is no speech and there are no words;

their sound is inaudible.

4 Yet in all the world their line goes out,

and their words to the end of the world.

In them he has pitched a tent for the sun,

5 and it is like a bridegroom

who comes out of his bridal chamber.

It is glad like a strong man

to run its course.

6 Its rising is from one end of the heavens

and its circuit to the other end of them;

and nothing is hidden from its heat.

7 The law of Yahweh is perfect, reviving life.

The testimony of Yahweh is firm, making wise the simple.

8 The precepts of Yahweh are right, making the heart rejoice.

The command of Yahweh is pure, enlightening the eyes.

9 The fear of Yahweh is pure, enduring forever.

The ordinances of Yahweh are true; they are righteous altogether,

10 more desirable than gold, even much fine gold;

and sweeter than honey, even honey in the comb.

11 Moreover, your servant is warned by them;

in keeping them is great reward.

12 Who can perceive his errors?

Acquit me from hidden faults.

13 Also, keep back your servant from arrogant sins;

let them not rule over me.

Then I shall be blameless,

and I shall be innocent of great transgression.

14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart

be acceptable in your presence,

O Yahweh, my rock and my redeemer.

PSALM 19 IS AUTHORED BY DAVID ACCORDING TO THE SUPERSCRIPTION, WHICH IS IN FACT A PART OF THE PSALM

THE SUPERSCRIPTION IS THE HEADING ITS LIKE A TITLE TO A MOVIE, IT HINTS AS TO WHAT THAT PARTICULAR PSALM IS ABOUT.

AND IN THIS SUPERSCRIPTION DAVID SUGGEST THAT HE IS WRITING TO THE CHOIR DIRECTOR.

SO THIS PSALM IS ACTUALLY A SONG OF PRAISE THAT IS TO BE SUNG.

WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF THIS SONG, DAVID DISCERNS THAT THEIR IS A DIRECT CORRELATION BETWEEN -----THAT WHICH GOD CREATED--- AND HIS COMMANDMENTS

OUR FOCUS TODAY IS ON A SMALL PERICOPE IN THIS PASSAGE vs 9-10

BUT WE WILL USE THE CONTEXT FOR OUR FOUNDATION

STAY WITH ME BECAUSE NOTICE THAT IN THE INTERIM OF THIS PASSAGE DAVID EXPOSES THIS REVELATION

THAT EVERYTHING THAT GOD CREATED,.. WAS CREATED TO GIVE GOD GLORY.

HE REVEALS THIS IN VS 1-6

YOU WERE CREATED TO GIVE GOD GLORY

BEFORE YOU GET EXCITED OVER THAT FISRT SIP OF COFFEE

BEFORE YOU GET EXCITED OVER ANYTHING YOU ACCOMPLISH TODAY

YOUR FIRST EXPRESSION OF EXCITEMENT AND CELEBRATION SHOULD BE TOWARDS YOUR CREATOR

INITIALLY DAVID FOCUSES HIS ATTENTION IN VS 1-6 ON GODS CREATION

HE HONES IN ON TWO SPECIFIC COMPONENTS IN EARTH CREATION

THE SKY AND THE SUN

THOUGH THEY HAVE NO AUDIBLE VOICE

THEY DAILY PROCLAIM GODS GLORY

WITHOUT A BRAIN

WITHOUT A VOICE THEY ARE VERY BOISTEROUS

(GENESIS 1-2

WHEN GOD BEGAN TO CREATE

HE DIDN’T CALL AN ARCHITECH

DEMOLITION CREW

CONTRACTOR

HE CALLED HIS OWN WISDOM AND POWER

??? AND ACCORDING TO GENESIS CH 1 & 2 HE COMMANDED THINGS INTO BEING

HE SPOKE IT AND IT MANIFESTED

AND ACCORDING TO CH 1:26 WE ARE MADE IN HIS IMAGE AND HIS LIKENESS

SO WE CAN SPEAK TO A THING

AND AS WE SHIFT TO VS 9-10

NOTICE THAT DAVID MOVES FROM CREATION TO THE WORD

1.SUSTAIN - 9a  The fear of Yahweh is pure, enduring forever.

2. SANTIFY - 9b The ordinances of Yahweh are true; they are righteous altogether,

3. SATISFY - 10 more desirable than gold, even much fine gold;

and sweeter than honey, even honey in the comb.
