One Year Bible and it's coming to you from 4 00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:12,450 Riverside, California. I'm your OG Godcaster. Steve Webb 5 00:00:12,450 --> 00:00:17,370 podcasting since 2004. It Psalms Wednesday, we'll read chapters 6 00:00:17,370 --> 00:00:21,390 146 through 148. and we'll also have a time of prayer. The 7 00:00:21,390 --> 00:00:24,390 website is Lifespringmedia.com. and I'll have contact 8 00:00:24,390 --> 00:00:26,790 information at the end of today's show in case you got 9 00:00:26,790 --> 00:00:31,260 anything to say to me, before we read, let's pray. Our Heavenly 10 00:00:31,260 --> 00:00:34,560 Father, we thank you for our time together, we pray God that 11 00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:37,440 as we read today, you would bless us. Thank you for the 12 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,950 Psalms. Lord, they teach us so much about how to praise you, 13 00:00:41,100 --> 00:00:45,960 how to worship you, and even how to just talk honestly to you. I 14 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:50,460 pray God that you would teach us today in Jesus name. Amen. Are 15 00:00:50,460 --> 00:00:51,780 you ready? Let's begin. 16 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:57,570 The last five chapters or songs of the book of Psalms beginning 17 00:00:57,570 --> 00:01:03,030 with this Psalm 146, are known as the Hallelujah Psalms. So 18 00:01:03,030 --> 00:01:06,420 what does hallelujah mean? In the simplest terms, it means 19 00:01:06,450 --> 00:01:09,300 praise the Lord. But there's so much more to it than that. 20 00:01:09,570 --> 00:01:13,680 Listen to this from Bible study tools.com. The word itself is a 21 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:18,030 transliteration into Greek of two Hebrew words halaal and 22 00:01:18,090 --> 00:01:22,440 Yawei. Hall all means to extol the greatness or excellence of a 23 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:27,450 person, object or event. It's often translated to praise, but 24 00:01:27,450 --> 00:01:31,560 who are you to praise? Yahweh is the covenant name of God, so to 25 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,940 say, hallelujah is saying, extol greatness to our covenant 26 00:01:35,940 --> 00:01:40,050 keeping God and so the final five psalms are all about that 27 00:01:40,260 --> 00:01:44,550 to extol greatness to our covenant keeping God. Well, what 28 00:01:44,550 --> 00:01:48,330 does extol mean? From Merriam Webster it means to praise 29 00:01:48,330 --> 00:01:52,470 highly to glorify. So are you beginning to understand 30 00:01:52,650 --> 00:01:56,760 Hallelujah means to celebrate, to praise to glorify, to lift up 31 00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:00,840 the name of God, to rejoice in to offer up to him all the honor 32 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,440 he so rightly deserves. James Montgomery Boice, the 33 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:07,980 commentator wrote, In the earlier songs we have studied 34 00:02:07,980 --> 00:02:13,110 the writer's griefs, shames, sins, doubts and fears. We have 35 00:02:13,110 --> 00:02:16,170 witnessed the people of God and their defeats and victories, 36 00:02:16,290 --> 00:02:20,010 their ups and downs in life. We have encountered rebellious 37 00:02:20,010 --> 00:02:24,480 words in struggling faith, all that is behind us. Now, in these 38 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,690 final Psalms, every word is a praise. 39 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:35,730 Psalms chapter 146. Praise the Lord, my whole being praise the 40 00:02:35,730 --> 00:02:40,020 Lord, I will praise the Lord all my life, I will sing praises to 41 00:02:40,020 --> 00:02:44,130 my God as long as I live. Do not put your trust in princes or 42 00:02:44,130 --> 00:02:47,760 other people who cannot save you. When people die, they are 43 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,720 buried, then all of their plans come to an end, happier those 44 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,990 who are helped by the God of Jacob. Their hope is in the Lord 45 00:02:54,990 --> 00:02:58,800 their God. He made heaven and earth, the sea and everything in 46 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:03,240 it. He remains loyal forever. He does what is fair for those who 47 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:07,050 have been wronged. He gives food to the hungry. The Lord sets the 48 00:03:07,050 --> 00:03:11,280 prisoners free. The Lord gives sight to the blind. The Lord 49 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,490 lifts up people who are in trouble. The Lord loves those 50 00:03:14,490 --> 00:03:18,360 who do right. The Lord protects the foreigners. He defends the 51 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,270 orphans and widows, but he blocks the way of the wicked. 52 00:03:21,780 --> 00:03:25,590 The LORD will be king forever. Jerusalem, Your God is 53 00:03:25,590 --> 00:03:27,660 everlasting. Praise the Lord. 54 00:03:30,420 --> 00:03:34,620 Like the other hallelujah Psalms, Psalm 147, has no title 55 00:03:34,710 --> 00:03:39,810 and like the others, this psalm begins and ends with hallelujah 56 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:41,220 or praise the Lord. 57 00:03:43,260 --> 00:03:49,050 Psalms chapter 147. Praise the Lord. It is good to sing praises 58 00:03:49,050 --> 00:03:52,860 to our God. It is good and pleasant to praise Him. The Lord 59 00:03:52,860 --> 00:03:57,300 rebuilds Jerusalem. He brings back the captured Israelites. He 60 00:03:57,300 --> 00:04:01,170 heals the brokenhearted and bandages their wounds. He counts 61 00:04:01,170 --> 00:04:05,040 the stars and names each one. Our Lord is great and very 62 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:09,210 powerful. There is no limit to what he knows. The Lord defends 63 00:04:09,210 --> 00:04:12,540 the humble but he throws the wicked to the ground. Sing 64 00:04:12,540 --> 00:04:17,040 praises to the Lord, praise our God with harps. He fills the sky 65 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,580 with clouds and sends rain to the earth and makes grass grow 66 00:04:20,580 --> 00:04:24,270 on the hills. He gives food to cattle and to the little birds 67 00:04:24,270 --> 00:04:27,750 that call he is not impressed with the strength of a horse or 68 00:04:27,750 --> 00:04:31,170 with human might. The Lord is pleased with those who respect 69 00:04:31,170 --> 00:04:35,580 him with those who trust His love. Jerusalem praise the Lord, 70 00:04:35,820 --> 00:04:40,350 Jerusalem praise your God. He makes your city gates strong and 71 00:04:40,350 --> 00:04:44,070 blesses your children inside. He brings peace to your country and 72 00:04:44,070 --> 00:04:48,000 fills you with the finest grain. He gives a command to the earth 73 00:04:48,090 --> 00:04:52,260 and it quickly obeys Him. He spreads the snow like wool and 74 00:04:52,260 --> 00:04:56,820 scatters the frost like ashes. He throws down hail like rocks. 75 00:04:56,910 --> 00:05:00,720 No one can stand the cold he sends then he gets is a command 76 00:05:00,750 --> 00:05:05,070 and it melts. He sends the breezes and the waters flow he 77 00:05:05,070 --> 00:05:09,270 gave his word to Jacob is laws and demands to Israel. He didn't 78 00:05:09,270 --> 00:05:13,080 do this for any other nation. They don't know his laws, praise 79 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:13,770 the Lord. 80 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:20,850 In Psalm 148, all of creation is called upon to praise God, every 81 00:05:20,850 --> 00:05:24,720 creature in all the universe of this song commentator G. 82 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,860 Campbell, Morgan wrote, what a wonderful song this is, look 83 00:05:28,860 --> 00:05:31,950 over it again. and note the fact that there is no reference in it 84 00:05:31,950 --> 00:05:36,480 from first to last to the mercy or pity or compassion of God. 85 00:05:36,750 --> 00:05:40,740 But that's because there is no reference to evil in any form. 86 00:05:41,010 --> 00:05:44,970 Hallelujah indeed. and beloved, lest you think that this is only 87 00:05:44,970 --> 00:05:49,170 an enthusiastic cry based on emotion, thank again, Revelation 88 00:05:49,170 --> 00:05:53,400 511 through 13 says it will indeed happen. In Revelation 89 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:57,060 five, the apostle John wrote, then I looked, and I heard the 90 00:05:57,060 --> 00:06:00,990 voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures and 91 00:06:00,990 --> 00:06:05,550 the elders, and the number of them was 10,000 times 10,000, 92 00:06:05,700 --> 00:06:10,440 and 1000s of 1000s, saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb 93 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,130 who was slain to receive power and riches and wisdom, and 94 00:06:14,130 --> 00:06:18,240 strength, and honor and glory and blessing. and every creature 95 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,030 which is in heaven, and on earth, and under the earth, and 96 00:06:21,030 --> 00:06:24,780 such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, I heard 97 00:06:24,780 --> 00:06:28,950 saying, blessing and honor and glory and power be to Him who 98 00:06:28,950 --> 00:06:32,700 sits on the throne, and to the Lamb forever and ever. 99 00:06:34,650 --> 00:06:39,750 Psalms chapter 148. Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord from the 100 00:06:39,750 --> 00:06:43,680 skies. Praise him high above the earth. Praise Him, all you 101 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:47,820 angels. Praise Him all you armies of heaven. Praise Him Sun 102 00:06:47,820 --> 00:06:51,600 and Moon, praise him all you shining stars, praise him, 103 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:55,380 highest heavens and you waters above the sky. Let them praise 104 00:06:55,380 --> 00:06:58,950 the Lord because they were created by His Command. He put 105 00:06:58,950 --> 00:07:02,100 them in place forever and ever. He made a law that will never 106 00:07:02,100 --> 00:07:05,970 change. Praise the Lord from the earth, you large sea animals and 107 00:07:05,970 --> 00:07:10,020 all the oceans, lightning and hail, snow and mist and stormy 108 00:07:10,020 --> 00:07:13,890 winds that obey Him. Mountains, and all hills, fruit trees, and 109 00:07:13,890 --> 00:07:18,300 all cedars wild animals at all cattle, crawling animals and 110 00:07:18,300 --> 00:07:22,290 birds, kings of the earth and all nations, princes at all 111 00:07:22,290 --> 00:07:25,860 rulers of the earth. Young men and women, old people and 112 00:07:25,860 --> 00:07:30,090 children. Praise the Lord because He alone is great. He is 113 00:07:30,090 --> 00:07:33,690 more wonderful than heaven and earth. God has given his people 114 00:07:33,690 --> 00:07:37,800 a king, he should be praised by all who belong to him. He should 115 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:41,430 be praised by the Israelites, the people closest to his heart, 116 00:07:41,610 --> 00:07:42,690 praise the Lord. 117 00:07:44,820 --> 00:07:48,930 Beloved, Psalm 146 praises God for His trustworthiness and oh 118 00:07:48,930 --> 00:07:52,650 how I agree with that. I have discovered this to be so very 119 00:07:52,650 --> 00:07:56,850 true in my own lifetime. So many times he's demonstrated that he 120 00:07:56,850 --> 00:08:01,800 is always they're always able, always loving, and always true. 121 00:08:02,310 --> 00:08:06,330 and Psalm 147 praises God for the way he cares for us. and for 122 00:08:06,330 --> 00:08:10,470 his power over creation itself. There is nothing that he cannot 123 00:08:10,470 --> 00:08:15,090 do. and Psalm 148 calls for all of creation to praise the Lord. 124 00:08:15,270 --> 00:08:18,750 and there will come a day when that will indeed happen. 125 00:08:19,170 --> 00:08:23,430 Beloved, the older I get, the more I realized that he is 126 00:08:23,430 --> 00:08:26,520 worthy of praise. I love him more today than the day I 127 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,630 received Him as my Savior over 50 years ago. and when you think 128 00:08:30,630 --> 00:08:34,050 about it, that makes sense. I love my wife, the lovely lady 129 00:08:34,050 --> 00:08:37,650 Leanne more than the day I married her. How could that be? 130 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:41,040 Well, because we have gone through so many things together. 131 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:44,700 and I know we're better now than I did then. She's never left my 132 00:08:44,700 --> 00:08:49,080 side. She puts up with my idiosyncrasies, my faults, my 133 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:53,730 moods, my rough edges, and on and on and on. She loves me 134 00:08:53,730 --> 00:08:58,320 despite my oh so many faults, and God knows me even better 135 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:02,700 than LeeAnn's does. and yet, he loves me. and just as I still 136 00:09:02,700 --> 00:09:05,940 discover new things about my wife, I discover new things 137 00:09:05,940 --> 00:09:10,500 about God. Though he never changes. He reveals new things 138 00:09:10,500 --> 00:09:14,730 to me about himself. The depth of our relationship continues to 139 00:09:14,730 --> 00:09:19,710 grow deeper as I walk with him. Yes, the Lord is indeed worthy 140 00:09:19,710 --> 00:09:22,980 of praise. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. 141 00:10:27,750 --> 00:10:31,620 Hallelujah indeed. How have you found God to be worthy your 142 00:10:31,620 --> 00:10:34,650 praise? Let me know.

One Year Bible has been a blessing in your life 150 00:11:00,630 --> 00:11:03,330 this year, please pray about returning some of that blessing 151 00:11:03,330 --> 00:11:06,930 in the form of a financial gift. I will be keeping the entire 152 00:11:06,930 --> 00:11:11,130 Lifespring catalogue of well over 3000 episodes online at 153 00:11:11,190 --> 00:11:14,880 Lifespringmedia.com. For as long as I'm able, so that those 154 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,790 episodes will be a blessing for others at some time in the 155 00:11:17,790 --> 00:11:21,000 future. Most every episode I've ever produced has been 156 00:11:21,030 --> 00:11:24,060 evergreen. That means these episodes aren't related to 157 00:11:24,060 --> 00:11:27,900 current events, but to the timeless truths of God. So if 158 00:11:27,900 --> 00:11:31,260 someone listens next year or five years from now, or 20, 159 00:11:31,560 --> 00:11:35,370 they'll hear the good news. But there are costs associated with 160 00:11:35,370 --> 00:11:38,850 keeping the website online. Would you help me pray about it? 161 00:11:38,850 --> 00:11:42,240 Would you ask the Lord what he would have you do and then go 162 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:42,570 here 163 00:11:43,410 --> 00:11:43,440 Jingle: Lifespringmedia.com/support 164 00:11:46,740 --> 00:11:49,170 Steve Webb: I'll Thank you, those who hear the episodes in 165 00:11:49,170 --> 00:11:52,380 the future will thank you, and I believe that God will bless you. 166 00:12:01,710 --> 00:12:05,550 And now in medical news, or something like that, here's 167 00:12:05,550 --> 00:12:08,460 another anecdotal story that shows I'm not alone in their 168 00:12:08,460 --> 00:12:12,510 shoulder pain after laparoscopic surgery category. This note came 169 00:12:12,510 --> 00:12:15,570 in from Lifespring Berean Brother Phil. He said here's my 170 00:12:15,570 --> 00:12:18,930 shoulder story. I had my gallbladder removed. and after 171 00:12:18,930 --> 00:12:22,380 the operation, it felt like they had dropped me off the operating 172 00:12:22,380 --> 00:12:27,720 table onto my shoulder agony. No position helped. Yes, that does 173 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:31,200 sound familiar brother Phil. Phil says I asked what has 174 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:34,020 caused this. and now here's where the medical staff had 175 00:12:34,020 --> 00:12:36,780 brother Phil's hospital far excelled the staff at my 176 00:12:36,780 --> 00:12:41,250 hospital, he said, I was told it's referred pain from co2 177 00:12:41,250 --> 00:12:45,630 inflation of my stomach. They remove as much co2 as they can, 178 00:12:45,630 --> 00:12:49,350 but some remains. I researched it. and it seems that some 179 00:12:49,350 --> 00:12:53,670 nerves also map to other places. and I assume that in my case, 180 00:12:53,700 --> 00:12:56,490 stomach nerves or something associated with the gallbladder 181 00:12:56,670 --> 00:13:00,750 uses my shoulder nerve. So pain in the shoulder, right shoulder 182 00:13:00,990 --> 00:13:05,670 also means pain in an internal organ. I wonder if all internal 183 00:13:05,670 --> 00:13:08,910 organs shared nerves that we mentally map to other parts of 184 00:13:08,910 --> 00:13:12,270 our body. My neighbor has to have his gallbladder removed and 185 00:13:12,270 --> 00:13:16,020 was grateful for this knowledge. and he's just signed it, Phil. 186 00:13:16,260 --> 00:13:19,110 Well, Brother Phil, thank you for that known, yes, you are 187 00:13:19,110 --> 00:13:22,320 confirming my research for sure. I'm sorry, you had to have your 188 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:25,530 gallbladder removed. and I do hope you're doing okay. One of 189 00:13:25,530 --> 00:13:28,740 my sisters in law also had hers removed many years ago. and as 190 00:13:28,740 --> 00:13:32,880 far as I know, she's just doing fine without hers. Yesterday was 191 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,820 the first day since my surgery that I haven't had any shoulder 192 00:13:35,820 --> 00:13:38,670 pain at all. So I'm thankful that that little adventure is 193 00:13:38,670 --> 00:13:42,150 behind me. and as long as we're in the health corner of the 194 00:13:42,150 --> 00:13:44,460 shell, today, I'm having a little follow up surgery 195 00:13:44,460 --> 00:13:48,210 procedure done on for my cataract surgery that I had a 196 00:13:48,210 --> 00:13:51,990 few weeks ago. I'm having a little laser surgery done on 197 00:13:51,990 --> 00:13:56,040 that eye to clean up a bit of lens flare caused by a remnant 198 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,160 of the lens that was removed, I think and it should just take a 199 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:03,060 few minutes show so it shouldn't really be a big deal. and this, 200 00:14:03,060 --> 00:14:06,150 by the way, will be the third time that I've had laser surgery 201 00:14:06,150 --> 00:14:10,050 on that I the first time was LASIK surgery about 20 years 202 00:14:10,050 --> 00:14:14,700 ago. The second time was when my retina tour in a sort of spot 203 00:14:14,700 --> 00:14:17,640 welded it to keep further damage from happening to the retina. 204 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:22,860 and then now this little cleanup job. So this laser surgery is 205 00:14:22,890 --> 00:14:24,480 sort of getting to be old hat 206 00:14:29,820 --> 00:14:32,850 Prayer requests praises. Well, there's nothing new today from 207 00:14:32,850 --> 00:14:36,510 the Lifespring family but praise the Lord as I said my soldier 208 00:14:36,510 --> 00:14:41,100 pain, my soldier pain, my shoulder pain. I used to say 209 00:14:41,100 --> 00:14:44,490 shoulder for soldier when I was a little kid I think I would 210 00:14:44,490 --> 00:14:48,000 call my shoulder my soldier. Well, that goes back a few years 211 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:52,380 anyway, my shoulder pain seems to be gone. and a prayer request 212 00:14:52,380 --> 00:14:55,770 that my laser procedure takes care of the annoying lens flare 213 00:14:55,800 --> 00:15:00,150 in my left eye would be good as well. So let's pray. Our 214 00:15:00,150 --> 00:15:04,110 Heavenly Father, we offer you our enthusiastic and heartfelt 215 00:15:04,110 --> 00:15:07,470 praise now and we look forward to the time that we join our 216 00:15:07,470 --> 00:15:11,220 voices with all of creation around your throne, rejoicing in 217 00:15:11,220 --> 00:15:15,510 your presence. Hallelujah. and Father, I thank you and I praise 218 00:15:15,510 --> 00:15:19,170 you that the pain in my shoulder is in the past. I praise you to 219 00:15:19,170 --> 00:15:22,530 Father for Liane who's taken such good care of me while I've 220 00:15:22,530 --> 00:15:25,170 been recovering from the surgery. and I pray that You 221 00:15:25,170 --> 00:15:28,560 would bless her for all that she does to be the wife that I need. 222 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:33,000 She is a gift father, I again, just ask that you bless her. and 223 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:37,020 I pray now that today's laser surgery would be successful, and 224 00:15:37,020 --> 00:15:41,040 that no new complications would happen. I deeply thank you, Lord 225 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:44,430 for the Lifespring family. and I pray that where there are needs 226 00:15:44,460 --> 00:15:48,060 you would meet them according to your perfect will. I pray this 227 00:15:48,060 --> 00:15:52,530 in Jesus name. Amen. Well, beloved, we have only three more 228 00:15:52,530 --> 00:15:56,190 times to pray together here on the show.
