Psalm 119 provides an extended insight into the psalmist’s spiritual experience as a suffering sojourner looking ahead to God’s mysterious but sure deliverance.

Any preacher today could be tempted to regard his main obstacle as a modern one, namely the incredulity and cynicism of a secularist world. Be there is an ancient one as well—the recurring doubts of God’s people in the supernatural world. Preachers have long served as God’s agents to help those who struggle to walk by faith and not by sight, and continue to look to the things that are unseen, which are eternal. 2 Kings 6:8-23 reveals an example of God’s prophet being used to open the eyes of others in order to see what is truly real.

This Psalm teaches us about life’s travails, and that Israel fails, but that Christ prevails.

In Jesus’ encounter with two people in great need we are reminded that God’s ways are not our ways; and that God’s ways are always better.

Change is unavoidable but how we change should follow God’s design for change.

David has two problems. There is David’s sin and there is David’s self. He faces his guilt as well as his guilty feelings. His repentance finds its voice, as does his faith, in the hope that God’s grace is sufficient for both his problems.
