Psalm 33: Music, Justice, and God

Rev. George Sinclair — Sun, 02 Jul 2023 10:00:00 +0100

Psalm 33: Music, Justice, and God

Series: Summer in the Psalms

Speaker: Rev. George Sinclair

Messiah Downtown

Date: 2nd July 2023

Passage: Psalm 33:1-22

-------------------

Music is not a meaningless accident whose power is a delusion, a sin, or a trap.

The Triune God inextricably wove music into human beings.

The Triune God spoke and the universe came into being.

The created order reflects the goodness, glory, justice, beauty, and love of the Triune God.

The human problem is not that you have desires and pursue purposes - it is that you cannot have desires or purposes without them being tainted by a rejection of God and an exalting of yourself.

You are a mystery to yourself, but you are not a mystery to the Triune God - he sees your heart and your deeds.

The anthem of your Canadian heart - I need to be King; I need a powerful entourage; I need to be a powerful warrior; I need powerful techniques and tools.

"Behold the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him, on those who hope in His steadfast love, that He may deliver their soul from death, and keep them alive in famine." Psalm 33:18-19, ESV.
