Psalm 125 // Live Faithfully

Episode Summary:

Jared explores Psalm 125, a part of a collection known as the Psalms of Ascent, which were sung by ancient Hebrews as they ascended to worship God in the temple in Jerusalem. Psalm 125 focuses on the theme of God's protection and the contrast between the godly and the ungodly. We go into the meaning of the psalm, highlighting the assurance of God's unwavering protection for those who trust in Him, the challenges faced by believers, and the importance of not succumbing to injustice or the ways of the world.

Key Takeaways:

• Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, unshakable and enduring forever.
• God surrounds His people with His protection, just as the mountains surround Jerusalem.
• Believers may face afflictions and opposition, but God's hand is always extended to defend His church.
• It is not the righteous' role to apply their hand to injustice, but to do good and bring peace.
• The Lord will banish evildoers and bring peace upon His people.
