Bragging On God - Psalm 18

Jul 23, 2023    Eddie Williams

Have you ever wondered why we resonate so much with the Psalms? They seem to encapsulate the full breadth of human emotion, don't they? Well, that's exactly what we explore in this episode of our Summer in the Psalms Series. Starting with Psalm 18:1-6, we delve into the role of the Psalms in helping us communicate our deepest feelings to God. And it's not just us, we've invited some friends from other churches to add their insights on this topic. 


Ever noticed how bragging can take different forms? It's not always boastful, right? But how does it play out in the Psalms? We took a deep dive into Psalm 18 to unravel this. The illusion of stability and real security - that's something we all grapple with. Our exploration of Psalm 18 revealed that true security is not found in worldly possessions but in trusting God. Reflecting on the narrative of Saul and David, we contemplated on God's power, true strength, and the fulfillment of His plan. We hope that this episode invites you to find your identity in something deeper than your own will and to proclaim Jesus' power and goodness. Join us on this exciting journey through the Psalms!
