Psalm 62
For the Chief Musician. To Jeduthan. A Psalm by David.
62:1 My soul rests in God alone. My salvation is from him.
62:2 He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress— I will never be greatly shaken.
62:3 How long will you assault a man, would all of you throw him down,
Like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?
62:4 They fully intend to throw him down from his lofty place.
They delight in lies. They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly.
Selah.
62:5 My soul, wait in silence for God alone, for my expectation is from him.
62:6 He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress. I will not be shaken.
62:7 With God is my salvation and my honor.
The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.
62:8 Trust in him at all times, you people.
Pour out your heart before him. God is a refuge for us.
Selah.
62:9 Surely men of low degree are just a breath, and men of high degree are a lie.
In the balances they will go up. They are together lighter than a breath.
62:10 Don’t trust in oppression. Don’t become vain in robbery.
If riches increase, don’t set your heart on them.
62:11 God has spoken once; twice I have heard this,
that power belongs to God.
62:12 Also to you, Lord, belongs loving kindness,
for you reward every man according to his work.

Think Spot 14 October 2023
25 At that time Jesus said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. 26 Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do.
27 “All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.
28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” (Matthew 11:25-30)
Jesus is strong enough and capable enough, to carry any burden that is laid upon Him. Jesus Christ gives a solid and sure foundation for all aspects of life, which will not fall or be destroyed. Indeed Jesus Christ will never fall or decay such is His imperishability as the everlasting God. Jesus Christ is solid, dependable and strong; nobody and nothing can stand against Him. Jesus’ strength means I can go to Him for protection and strength when I am weak and knowing He will supply my needs. Just as He has done for the last 40 years of my following Him and He will continue to do so throughout my life here on earth.
Unlike people offering self-help approaches and quick fixes for life, Jesus offers us Himself. He is able to help because of who He is – the giver and author of life. He is entirely and utterly dependable. Just as your body needs water to survive, so do the souls of people need Jesus in a personal encounter with Him. That is how dissatisfaction with life is beaten – Jesus reaching out to grasp you by the hand. Let him take your life and He will change your life. That is His promise – as He satisfies the urges in your soul it is as if a spring of water bursts into you – life giving, sparkling streams of water… WOW!
Go into this week with that promise of Jesus.

Proverbs 3
G’day! Welcome to Partakers and to Wednesday Wisdom, where we are listening to what the Bible has to say through the Wisdom literature of Proverbs, Ecclesiastes and Song of Solomon. Come on in!
Today it is Proverbs 3. Download this episode using this link
1 My son, forget not my law; but let your heart keep my commandments:
2 For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to you.
3 Let not mercy and truth forsake you: bind them about your neck; write them upon the tablet of your heart:
4 So shall You find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.
5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart; and lean not to your own understanding.
6 In all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths.
7 Be not wise in your own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil.
8 It shall be health to your navel, and marrow to your bones.
9 Honour the Lord with your substance, and with the firstfruits of all your increase:
10 So shall your barns be filled with plenty, and your presses shall burst out with new wine.
11 My son, despise not the chastening of the Lord; neither be weary of his correction:
12 For whom the Lord loves he corrects; even as a father the son in whom he delights.
13 Happy is the man that finds wisdom, and the man that gets understanding.
14 For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.
15 She is more precious than rubies: and all the things You can desire are not to be compared to her.
16 Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honour.
17 Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace.
18 She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retains her.
19 The Lord by wisdom has founded the earth; by understanding has he established the heavens.
20 By his knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew.
21 My son, let them not depart from your eyes: keep sound wisdom and discretion:
22 So shall they be life to your soul, and grace to your neck.
23 Then shall You walk in your way safely, and your foot shall not stumble.
24 When You lie down, You shall not be afraid: yes, You shall lie down, and your sleep shall be sweet.
25 Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it comes.
26 For the Lord shall be your confidence, and shall keep your foot from being taken.
27 Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of your hand to do it.
28 Say not to your neighbour, Go, and come again, and to morrow I will give; when You have it by you.
29 Devise not evil against your neighbour, seeing he dwells securely by you.
30 Strive not with a man without cause, if he have done you no harm.
31 Envy You not the oppressor, and choose none of his ways.
32 For the corrupted is abomination to the Lord: but his secret is with the righteous.
33 The curse of the Lord is in the house of the wicked: but he blesses the habitation of the just.
34 Surely he scorns the scorners: but he gives grace to the lowly.
35 The wise shall inherit glory: but shame shall be the promotion of fools.
That’s it for today! Come back every day to Partakers Podcasts to hear something to encourage and uplift you as a Christian disciple, regardless of where you are in the world. You can also purchase our books via Amazon at www.pulptheology.com

Psalm 8
1 O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!
Who hast set thy glory above the heavens.
2 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings
hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies,
that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.
3 When I consider thy heavens,
the work of thy fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which thou hast ordained;
4 What is man,
that thou art mindful of him?
and the son of man,
that thou visitest him?
5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels,
and hast crowned him with glory and honour.
6 Thou madest him to have
dominion over the works of thy hands;
thou hast put all things under his feet:
7 All sheep and oxen, yea,
and the beasts of the field;
8 The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea,
and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.
9 O Lord our Lord,
how excellent is thy name in all the earth!

Think Spot - Greatness and Love

Monday Think Spot
Greatness and Love
To be great is to rely on your own strength, own power and own wiles with a self-serving self-seeking and self-important love. That is the wisdom of the world. But that is not true greatness. It isn’t even really love. So what is greatness?
As ever Jesus overturns the wisdom of the world (including alas some in the church today!)... Matthew 20:26-28 "It is not this way among you, but whoever wishes to become great among you shall be your servant, and whoever wishes to be first among you shall be your servant; just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.”
That is biblical greatness. That is biblical love in action. Go into this week determined to serve others selflessly so that others may see Jesus in however you serve other people.
