    249. Psalm 9 Encounter: God as Your Refuge in the Midst of Injustice

    In the previous episode, we talked about God as our refuge and our God of justice from Psalm 9. Today, we're moving from head knowledge to heart experience - we're going to encounter Him as our refuge. This is a guided meditation where you'll bring your burdens, your injustices, your heavy feelings to Jesus and experience Him as your high shelter and perfect hiding place. Find a quiet space, close your eyes, and let the Holy Spirit meet you right where you are. You are not forgotten. There is hope. Psalm 9:9-10 (TPT): "All who are oppressed may come to Yahweh as a high shelter in the time of trouble. A perfect hiding place. For everyone who knows your wonderful name keeps putting their trust in you. They can count on you for help no matter what. Oh Lord, you will never, no, never neglect those who come to you." HOW TO USE THIS EPISODE:Find a Quiet Space: This is not an episode to listen to while driving or multitaskingSet aside 10-15 minutes of uninterrupted timeGet comfortable, close your eyes Bring Something Specific: An injustice you're facingA burden from the news or social mediaA situation where you feel overlooked or forgottenWhatever feels heavy right now Let the Holy Spirit Lead: There are moments of silence - don't skip themNotice what Jesus wants to say or show youPicture Him as your High shelter, your Hiding PlaceHand over what you're carrying Write It Down: After the encounter, journal what you sensedWhat did the Holy Spirit press upon your imagination?What did you see, hear, or feel?We remember what we take time to write down Music Provided by Soundstripe:"Folded Silence" by Moments"What We Must" by Falls You are seen.

    248. Encountering the Book of Psalms: Psalm 9 Teaching Our God of Refuge in the Face of Injustice

    The world feels heavy with injustice right now - human trafficking, war, violence, oppression. Maybe you're not just watching it on the news - maybe you're living it. Where is God in all this suffering? Psalm 9 has an answer for us. God sees every injustice, He cares deeply about the oppressed, and He is our refuge RIGHT NOW - not someday in heaven, but today in the midst of the mess. In this episode, we are going back into our Encountering the Psalms series- Psalm 9, to discover God as our high shelter and perfect hiding place, and how He's inviting us to partner with Him, as well. SCRIPTURES MENTIONED: Psalm 9 (Passion Translation) Psalm 9:9-10 (key verses) Hosea 2:15 KEY THEMES: God Sees Injustice God Is Our Refuge NOW God Calls Us to Partner With His Justice QUOTES: Charles Spurgeon on Psalm 9: "We have here before us most engagingly a triumphal hymn, may it strengthen the faith of the militant believer and stimulate courage of the timid saint." Psalm 9:10 (TPT): "You will never, no, never neglect those who come to you." Journal Prompts: What cause is God calling you to partner with? How can you support organizations fighting injustice? What injustice are you personally facing that you need to bring to God as your refuge? NEXT EPISODE: Episode 249: "Encountering God as Your Refuge" (Psalm 9 Encounter) Join us for a guided encounter where we'll practice bringing our burdens to God and experiencing Him as our shelter.

    Ep. 247 Five Postures of Encountering God: Lessons from Psalm 27In this teaching episode, I invite you to walk through five powerful Hebrew verbs from Psalm 27:4-5 that reveal how we position ourselves for intimacy with Jesus in the Secret Place. These aren't just nice religious words—they're action words that teach us how to move from knowing about God to truly encountering Him in the land of the living, right here, right now. Key PointsOur word for the year: "Behold" (based on Isaiah 43:18-19 and Psalm 27:4-5)The five distinct postures David uses to encounter God: desire, seek, dwell, behold, inquireHow each Hebrew verb reveals a deeper layer of intimacy with the LordTransformation happens not in the doing, but in the being and beholdingWe can see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living—not someday, but today The Five Postures Explained1. Desire (Sha'al) - Holy hunger that starts with Him 2. Seek (Baqash) - Active pursuit through worship, prayer, and study 3. Dwell (Yashab) - Staying present, making home in His presence 4. Behold (Chazah) - Gazing at Jesus with delight, encountering Him 5. Inquire (Bakar) - Bringing honest questions and searching for His heart This Week's InvitationPractice one posture each day: Monday: Desire - Ask God to stir holy hunger in youTuesday: Seek - Actively pursue Him through worship and prayerWednesday: Dwell - Spend extra time just being in His presenceThursday: Behold - Gaze at Jesus and delight in who He isFriday: Inquire - Bring your questions and journal His responses Reflection QuestionsWhich of the five postures comes most naturally to you?Which posture challenges you the most?What would it look like to approach God this week with all five postures instead of rushing through a checklist?
