00:00:00,560 –> 00:00:03,000
Good morning, my dearly beloved
brethren and sisters in the Lord
00:00:00,560 –> 00:00:03,000
Good morning, my dearly beloved
brethren and sisters in the Lord
2
00:00:03,000 –> 00:00:08,200
Jesus Christ.
Yesterday we spoke on the chief
3
00:00:08,200 –> 00:00:15,200
musician and I was reminded by a
few brethren and sisters about
4
00:00:15,200 –> 00:00:20,440
the work of James Thurtle, who
wrote the booklets, the titles
5
00:00:20,480 –> 00:00:25,960
of the Psalms, and he advocated
to splitting up some of the
6
00:00:25,960 –> 00:00:29,800
titles and putting them at the
end of the previous Psalm.
7
00:00:30,360 –> 00:00:35,200
He reasoned that he reasoned
from Habakkuk chapter 3, which
8
00:00:35,200 –> 00:00:36,640
you’ll have a look at in a
minute.
9
00:00:38,240 –> 00:00:44,920
But the Hebrew Bible was not
written as one long string of
10
00:00:44,920 –> 00:00:47,600
letters which we can touch
whatever we think.
11
00:00:48,400 –> 00:00:53,520
The discovery of the Dead Sea
Scrolls have shown without any
12
00:00:53,520 –> 00:00:59,920
doubt that there was a line
break in between the sounds.
13
00:01:00,800 –> 00:01:05,840
And for example, here you see a
copy of Psalm 143, which I
14
00:01:05,840 –> 00:01:10,720
showed yesterday as well.
And here, for example, we see
15
00:01:10,720 –> 00:01:18,200
the end of Psalm 142 and the
beginning of Psalm 143 add a new
16
00:01:18,200 –> 00:01:24,400
line, and this is Miss Morla,
David, Yaeshma, Trilati and so
17
00:01:24,400 –> 00:01:27,400
on.
It’s the Psalm of David Yawe
18
00:01:27,800 –> 00:01:31,600
hear my voice.
So there’s a very clear
19
00:01:31,600 –> 00:01:37,680
indication that the Psalms,
including the first verse,
20
00:01:38,200 –> 00:01:43,840
including, that is the title is
part of the Psalm and there’s no
21
00:01:44,200 –> 00:01:47,520
justification to take, for
example, the phrase the chief
22
00:01:47,520 –> 00:01:52,360
musician and put it at the end
of the previous Psalm as
23
00:01:52,360 –> 00:01:57,400
advocated by James Theatre.
The deity scrolls put it to a
24
00:01:57,480 –> 00:02:00,040
complete halt.
You cannot do it.
25
00:02:00,240 –> 00:02:04,080
It is not justified.
If you talk to any Jewish Hebrew
26
00:02:04,080 –> 00:02:08,680
scholar, he will put you to
shame if you would say that.
27
00:02:09,639 –> 00:02:14,880
Nevertheless, it is important to
look at Habakkuk chapter 3,
28
00:02:14,880 –> 00:02:18,280
which I had intended to do
yesterday, but I ran out of
29
00:02:18,280 –> 00:02:21,920
time.
Let us go to Habakkuk chapter 3,
30
00:02:22,400 –> 00:02:30,600
because that was used by James
Thirtle to say that part of the
31
00:02:30,600 –> 00:02:34,560
Psalm title belongs to the
previous Psalm.
32
00:02:36,000 –> 00:02:40,080
It’s a wonderful chapter,
chapter 3, because it’s a
33
00:02:40,080 –> 00:02:44,960
prayer.
It’s a prayer of Habakkuk, that
34
00:02:44,960 –> 00:02:49,760
prophet upon Shiggy or not.
And there’s one of the titles in
35
00:02:49,760 –> 00:02:54,240
the use in the Psalms as well.
But we need to go to that last
36
00:02:54,320 –> 00:03:01,720
verse, verse 19 and there it
says Yahweh Elovim is my
37
00:03:01,720 –> 00:03:06,080
strength and he will make my
feet like Heinz and you will
38
00:03:06,080 –> 00:03:09,760
make me to work upon my high
places full stop.
39
00:03:11,160 –> 00:03:16,320
There is no full stop in the
Hebrew then says to the chief
40
00:03:16,320 –> 00:03:20,200
singer same word as to the chief
musician on my strength
41
00:03:20,200 –> 00:03:23,080
instruments.
And that’s the way it has been
42
00:03:23,080 –> 00:03:25,720
translated.
And that’s where the third of
43
00:03:25,720 –> 00:03:30,920
got the idea from that to the
chief musician actually belongs
44
00:03:30,920 –> 00:03:34,040
to the preview at the end of the
previous Psalm.
45
00:03:35,040 –> 00:03:39,760
But just like all the titles of
the Psalm, this verse should
46
00:03:39,760 –> 00:03:44,800
have been translated properly,
like we tried to translate all
47
00:03:44,800 –> 00:03:47,800
the psalms.
And you can see on the overhead
48
00:03:48,440 –> 00:03:52,120
to the chief singer on stringed
instrument in Hebrews Lummannad
49
00:03:52,120 –> 00:03:55,630
Saya, you meant us, the phrase
for the chief musician, but ***
50
00:03:55,640 –> 00:04:00,440
not Tai, and it should have been
translated Yahweh.
51
00:04:00,520 –> 00:04:04,960
My adong is my strength, and He
will make my feet like Hinds
52
00:04:04,960 –> 00:04:08,800
feet, and He will make me to
walk upon my high places to
53
00:04:08,800 –> 00:04:11,880
victory upon my strength
instruments.
54
00:04:12,920 –> 00:04:16,279
And that phrase of course he
makes my feet like Hinds feet
55
00:04:16,279 –> 00:04:20,560
and sets people my high places
is used in some 18 which we
56
00:04:20,880 –> 00:04:29,120
looked at yesterday.
But you should pay attention to
57
00:04:29,360 –> 00:04:33,240
what is actually said at the
very end of this verse.
58
00:04:33,240 –> 00:04:38,160
It says He will make me to walk
upon my high place to vaguely on
59
00:04:38,600 –> 00:04:45,720
my stringed instruments.
It indicates that Habakkuk
60
00:04:46,040 –> 00:04:51,520
made-up psalms, his own
instruments for prayer and
61
00:04:51,520 –> 00:04:56,760
worship, and he tells us further
that you can only walk to
62
00:04:56,760 –> 00:05:02,040
victory to our high places when
we use the stringed instruments,
63
00:05:02,040 –> 00:05:06,600
namely the inspired words that
David composed on the harp.
64
00:05:07,520 –> 00:05:12,480
King Hezekiah used a very
similar expression if you go to
65
00:05:12,520 –> 00:05:27,880
Isaiah chapter 38,
when he was in great
66
00:05:27,880 –> 00:05:32,200
difficulties with the sea to the
Assyrian round Jerusalem.
67
00:05:32,880 –> 00:05:36,160
And in first one it says
Hezekiah was sick and to death,
68
00:05:36,880 –> 00:05:39,200
and I say it is prophet.
The son of Amos came unto him
69
00:05:39,200 –> 00:05:41,880
and said unto him, Just as
Yahweh, sit and house, in order
70
00:05:41,880 –> 00:05:45,400
for thou shalt die and not live.
And he prays to God, and God
71
00:05:45,400 –> 00:05:52,800
gave him another 15 years.
And what is his expression after
72
00:05:52,800 –> 00:05:56,280
he got his wonderful message
from the prophet Isaiah in verse
73
00:05:56,280 –> 00:05:59,400
15?
What shall I say?
74
00:06:00,640 –> 00:06:04,080
He has both spoken unto me, and
Himself has done it.
75
00:06:05,000 –> 00:06:11,120
I shall go softly all my years
in the bitterness of my soul.
76
00:06:12,040 –> 00:06:15,960
Lord, by these things men live,
and All in all these things is
77
00:06:15,960 –> 00:06:20,440
the life of my spirit.
So Thou wilt recover me and make
78
00:06:20,440 –> 00:06:24,640
me to live, because for peace I
had great bitterness.
79
00:06:25,200 –> 00:06:28,680
But Thou hast in love to my
soul, delivered it from the pit
80
00:06:28,680 –> 00:06:31,920
of corruption.
Thou hast cast all my sins
81
00:06:31,920 –> 00:06:35,560
behind Thy back, for the grave
cannot praise Thee.
82
00:06:35,880 –> 00:06:39,240
Death cannot celebrate Thee.
Then it go down into the pit.
83
00:06:39,240 –> 00:06:42,440
Cannot hope for that truth.
The living, the living.
84
00:06:42,440 –> 00:06:45,080
He shall praise Thee as I do
this day.
85
00:06:45,520 –> 00:06:48,480
The Father to the children shall
make known thy truth.
86
00:06:49,440 –> 00:06:53,600
Then He says, Yah was ready to
save me.
87
00:06:53,920 –> 00:06:59,520
Therefore we will sing my songs
to the stringed instruments.
88
00:06:59,560 –> 00:07:04,480
All the days of our life in the
House of Yahweh, He will sing
89
00:07:04,840 –> 00:07:08,480
His songs.
My songs, like Habakkuk said,
90
00:07:08,480 –> 00:07:13,880
they are my praises on the
stringed instruments that are
91
00:07:13,880 –> 00:07:19,200
the Nagi, not the Neginov, are
the Psalms, as we saw yesterday.
92
00:07:19,800 –> 00:07:23,560
So the sickness of Hezekiah
after an astonishing escape from
93
00:07:23,560 –> 00:07:29,480
the Assyrians was a humbling
experience for Hezekiah, and
94
00:07:29,480 –> 00:07:35,280
being healed by God made him go
softly and humbly all the
95
00:07:35,280 –> 00:07:40,040
remaining years of his life.
And what he said shows that he
96
00:07:40,040 –> 00:07:44,440
made the Psalms the focus of his
worship.
97
00:07:45,040 –> 00:07:49,520
And sometimes, like Hezekiah, we
also need to experience extreme
98
00:07:49,520 –> 00:07:54,760
distress before we turn to the
stringed instruments and make
99
00:07:54,760 –> 00:08:00,400
the sounds, our song and our
prayer all the days of our life.
100
00:08:03,160 –> 00:08:06,360
But now let us start at our
session for today.
101
00:08:07,800 –> 00:08:15,520
And I’d like to start by looking
at the word Sam, the many psalms
102
00:08:15,560 –> 00:08:21,760
called a Sam of David.
What is the word Sam actually
103
00:08:21,760 –> 00:08:24,560
mean?
It’s a Greek word.
104
00:08:25,480 –> 00:08:29,960
Remember we looked at Ephesians
chapter 5 and verse 19 where the
105
00:08:29,960 –> 00:08:32,880
apostle said be not filled with
wine, be not drunk with wine,
106
00:08:32,880 –> 00:08:36,480
but be filled with the Spirit
speaking to yourselves in
107
00:08:36,480 –> 00:08:41,559
psalms, hymns and spiritual
songs, singing and making melody
108
00:08:41,919 –> 00:08:46,120
in your heart to the Lord.
That word making melody is
109
00:08:46,120 –> 00:08:52,880
sallow in the Greek and to me it
is quite unreasonable and not
110
00:08:52,880 –> 00:08:59,760
intelligent to use a Greek word
making melody to translate the
111
00:08:59,760 –> 00:09:04,680
word Sam mis more which is the
word in Hebrew.
112
00:09:05,480 –> 00:09:09,760
The word for Sam in Hebrew is
mis more.
113
00:09:11,560 –> 00:09:16,160
It is not just a melody, a song
as the Greek indicates.
114
00:09:16,160 –> 00:09:20,640
Why would you take a Greek word
to translate a Hebrew word?
115
00:09:21,000 –> 00:09:25,080
But what does the word means
more actually mean?
116
00:09:26,840 –> 00:09:31,720
Well yesterday we saw with
Luminadzea that that most words,
117
00:09:31,920 –> 00:09:36,240
either verbs or nouns are
derived from three letter.
118
00:09:36,240 –> 00:09:41,560
We call that the three letter
root and this one is zamar,
119
00:09:42,240 –> 00:09:47,840
which basically means to prune
and later is also used to sing
120
00:09:49,240 –> 00:09:51,320
in Leviticus 25.
You don’t have to look it up.
121
00:09:51,320 –> 00:09:55,880
It says vend out your prune
divine or just the word for Sam.
122
00:09:57,000 –> 00:10:02,200
Well, why would you use the word
for prune as the basis for the
123
00:10:02,200 –> 00:10:07,680
word for Sam?
I’d like you to go to Genesis 43
124
00:10:09,760 –> 00:10:15,880
because that’s the first time
when that word is used and then
125
00:10:15,880 –> 00:10:20,520
you try and study the Bible
using Hebrew words.
126
00:10:21,040 –> 00:10:25,680
It’s always good to go back to
the first time that word is
127
00:10:25,720 –> 00:10:38,450
used.
Joseph was in Egypt.
128
00:10:39,330 –> 00:10:44,170
His brethren have been there.
Simeon have been taken captive
129
00:10:45,010 –> 00:10:49,250
and Joseph told him not to come
back unless they bring Benjamin
130
00:10:49,930 –> 00:10:53,280
with them.
Naturally Jacob resisted for a
131
00:10:53,280 –> 00:10:56,800
long time.
He had lost Joseph and he was
132
00:10:56,800 –> 00:10:59,560
not prepared to lose Benjamin as
well.
133
00:11:00,120 –> 00:11:03,800
But he didn’t know it was all in
the plan of God.
134
00:11:04,000 –> 00:11:09,280
And he tried to appease that
ruler in Egypt, which he didn’t
135
00:11:09,280 –> 00:11:14,840
yet know was his own son Joseph.
And then in verse 11 it says,
136
00:11:14,920 –> 00:11:19,200
And their father Israel said
unto them, if it must be so now
137
00:11:19,200 –> 00:11:22,680
do this.
Take off the best fruits in the
138
00:11:22,680 –> 00:11:27,720
land, in your vessels, and carry
down the man a present, a little
139
00:11:27,720 –> 00:11:31,160
balm, a little honey, spices,
murr, nuts and almonds.
140
00:11:32,640 –> 00:11:39,040
Why did he want to send the best
fruits to that ruler in Egypt?
141
00:11:40,160 –> 00:11:46,640
Well, it says so in verse 14.
And ale Shaddai, God Almighty
142
00:11:46,640 –> 00:11:50,920
give you mercy before the man
that he may send away your other
143
00:11:50,920 –> 00:11:54,920
brother and Benjamin.
And if I am bereaved, I am
144
00:11:55,040 –> 00:11:59,720
bereaved.
The word best fruits is Zimran.
145
00:11:59,840 –> 00:12:06,040
That’s the word for Assam.
And of course you do get the
146
00:12:06,040 –> 00:12:11,120
best fruits if you prune trees,
especially true of vines.
147
00:12:11,360 –> 00:12:14,360
They get those long runners,
take up all the nourishment.
148
00:12:14,360 –> 00:12:16,800
They don’t bear any fruit.
Cut them off because then the
149
00:12:16,800 –> 00:12:22,000
nourishment will go to the
grapes and that is what the
150
00:12:22,000 –> 00:12:26,160
Psalms are all about.
It’s not just a long narrative.
151
00:12:26,160 –> 00:12:31,840
They are short sentences that
express the faith of the
152
00:12:31,840 –> 00:12:35,000
psalmist who of course didn’t
speak his own words.
153
00:12:35,200 –> 00:12:37,000
They were the words of the Holy
Spirit.
154
00:12:37,000 –> 00:12:41,560
David said the spirit of Yahweh
speak by me and his word was in
155
00:12:41,560 –> 00:12:47,240
my tongue.
So they are the best fruits.
156
00:12:48,480 –> 00:12:55,360
In a similar language it says in
Psalm 12 the words of Yawa are
157
00:12:55,360 –> 00:13:02,400
pure words as silver tried in
the furnace of earth purified 7
158
00:13:02,400 –> 00:13:14,520
times and therefore the word
miss more means the pruned best
159
00:13:14,800 –> 00:13:19,240
fruit.
But whatever what you call these
160
00:13:19,240 –> 00:13:25,200
Psalms best fruits and to
understand that we need to go to
161
00:13:25,200 –> 00:13:53,180
Hebrews chapter 13.
It’s a wonderful chapter, but we
162
00:13:53,180 –> 00:13:57,740
just concentrate on on one first
say in verse 14 it says of
163
00:13:57,740 –> 00:14:01,420
course we have here no
continuing city, but we seek one
164
00:14:01,420 –> 00:14:05,240
to come by him that’s the Lord
Jesus Christ.
165
00:14:05,240 –> 00:14:08,760
Therefore, let us offer the
sacrifice of praise to God
166
00:14:08,960 –> 00:14:15,600
continuing that is the fruit of
lips, giving thanks to his name
167
00:14:15,880 –> 00:14:21,440
the word our lips our is in
italics and whenever possible
168
00:14:21,440 –> 00:14:24,160
you should get rid of those
words in italics.
169
00:14:24,440 –> 00:14:29,360
It’s not the fruit of our lips,
it’s the fruit of lips.
170
00:14:31,400 –> 00:14:38,840
And if our prayers are the fruit
of our lips, they are also a
171
00:14:38,840 –> 00:14:47,480
sacrifice of praise.
See, what we offer to God,
172
00:14:48,000 –> 00:14:53,800
whether we sing hymns or we say
in prayer, should be a
173
00:14:53,800 –> 00:14:59,720
sacrifice.
Where does the fruit of lips
174
00:15:00,120 –> 00:15:07,440
come from which is acceptable to
present to gods so that we may
175
00:15:07,440 –> 00:15:12,440
find mercy with God as Jacob
tried to find mercy with that
176
00:15:12,440 –> 00:15:16,160
ruler in Egypt when he gave him
the best fruits?
177
00:15:17,280 –> 00:15:21,880
Well, the phrase the fruit of
lips is referred to in the
178
00:15:21,880 –> 00:15:38,960
prophet Isaiah chapter 57.
It speaks about the waveredness
179
00:15:38,960 –> 00:15:45,880
of the Jewish people.
But God in his mercy will heal.
180
00:15:45,880 –> 00:15:51,680
Israel in verse 18 says I’ve
seen his ways, but I will heal
181
00:15:51,680 –> 00:15:54,000
him.
I will lead him also and restore
182
00:15:54,000 –> 00:15:56,240
competent to him and to his
mourners.
183
00:15:57,880 –> 00:16:03,440
How should we respond to that?
Then God says I create the
184
00:16:03,440 –> 00:16:10,360
fruits of lips, peace, peace to
him that is afar off and to him
185
00:16:10,360 –> 00:16:14,280
that is near says Yahweh, and I
will heal him.
186
00:16:14,560 –> 00:16:20,320
God creates the fruit of lips.
It’s not a fruit, it’s not our
187
00:16:20,320 –> 00:16:22,600
fruit which we should offer to
God.
188
00:16:23,400 –> 00:16:28,600
God has prepared the praise
which we should sacrifice
189
00:16:28,600 –> 00:16:36,280
OfferUp to himself.
And if we do that, then we get
190
00:16:36,280 –> 00:16:39,720
peace.
Not just peace, double peace,
191
00:16:40,040 –> 00:16:44,400
peace, peace whether we are far
off or near.
192
00:16:45,800 –> 00:16:51,280
And once we realise that prayers
and praises, our sacrifices,
193
00:16:52,160 –> 00:16:56,040
then we become more careful what
we offer to God.
194
00:16:58,320 –> 00:17:02,080
It’s not that I doubt the
sincerity of any brother or
195
00:17:02,080 –> 00:17:04,359
sister that offers a prayer.
Not at all.
196
00:17:05,359 –> 00:17:09,040
It’s not that I want to
criticize our hymn book.
197
00:17:09,920 –> 00:17:16,160
It’s just a principle of what we
offer to God should be a
198
00:17:16,160 –> 00:17:21,960
sacrifice.
Under the law, sacrifices were
199
00:17:21,960 –> 00:17:27,079
strictly proscribed.
If you brought strange incense,
200
00:17:27,160 –> 00:17:31,000
as Native and the bio did, for
example, they were struck dead.
201
00:17:31,920 –> 00:17:35,280
If God says you’ve got to bring
a lamb, you can’t bring a cat.
202
00:17:36,920 –> 00:17:44,400
It’s as simple as that.
See it says in Exodus chapter 30
203
00:17:53,160 –> 00:17:59,000
it’s talking about the altar of
incense in verse 9.
204
00:18:01,440 –> 00:18:06,280
You should offer no strange
incense thereon, nor burned
205
00:18:06,280 –> 00:18:08,520
sacrifice, nor meat offering
nycha.
206
00:18:08,520 –> 00:18:13,720
You pour drink off in their own.
You cannot offer strange
207
00:18:14,160 –> 00:18:19,040
incense, incense that has not
been prescribed by God.
208
00:18:19,440 –> 00:18:22,880
And in the same chapter, at the
end, in verse 34, we get a
209
00:18:23,200 –> 00:18:27,080
prescription of the incense, how
it should be made.
210
00:18:27,400 –> 00:18:30,320
Look at verse 34.
Yawa sent to Moses.
211
00:18:30,320 –> 00:18:33,480
Take her to these sweet spices
stacked in onica and galbanum,
212
00:18:33,680 –> 00:18:36,840
sweet spices with pure
frankincense sense of which it
213
00:18:36,840 –> 00:18:40,080
shall be a lightweight.
Thou shall make it a perfume, a
214
00:18:40,080 –> 00:18:43,240
confection after the art of the
apothecary, tempered together,
215
00:18:43,240 –> 00:18:45,800
pure and holy.
There shall be someone with very
216
00:18:45,800 –> 00:18:49,200
small and put fit before the
testimony in the Tabernacle of
217
00:18:49,200 –> 00:18:51,680
the congregation where I will
meet with you.
218
00:18:51,960 –> 00:18:58,480
It shall be unto you most holy.
And As for the perfume, it thou
219
00:18:58,480 –> 00:19:01,920
shalt make, you shall not make
to yourself, according to the
220
00:19:01,920 –> 00:19:05,320
composition thereof.
It shall be unto thee holy for
221
00:19:05,320 –> 00:19:11,320
Yahweh, whosoever shall make
like unto that to smell, that
222
00:19:11,320 –> 00:19:14,720
too shall be cut off from his
people.
223
00:19:17,200 –> 00:19:21,920
But we don’t offer incense as
they do in some churches.
224
00:19:22,600 –> 00:19:28,960
But the principle that you can’t
offer what you want still
225
00:19:28,960 –> 00:19:34,200
applies to us today.
See John Thomas in Elpos Israel
226
00:19:34,480 –> 00:19:39,600
right in the beginning. in Page
seven, he says it is true that
227
00:19:39,600 –> 00:19:45,000
no man has a right to worship
God as he pleases.
228
00:19:45,480 –> 00:19:51,000
This is a Protestant fallacy.
Man has a right to worship God
229
00:19:51,040 –> 00:19:55,560
only in the way God has himself
appointed.
230
00:19:56,520 –> 00:19:59,720
And these are powerful words by
our brother John Thomas.
231
00:20:00,160 –> 00:20:02,280
And he is.
Dead on right.
232
00:20:04,240 –> 00:20:16,210
See if you go to Psalm 141.
That Psalm teaches us that
233
00:20:16,210 –> 00:20:22,730
prayers are incense.
It says in verse 2, My prayer
234
00:20:23,650 –> 00:20:28,650
shall be set forth before thee
as incense and the lifting up of
235
00:20:28,650 –> 00:20:31,890
my hands as the evening
sacrifice.
236
00:20:33,240 –> 00:20:36,600
See incense was always offered
in the Tabernacle and in the
237
00:20:36,640 –> 00:20:43,520
temple in the afternoon between
2:00 and 3:00.
238
00:20:43,520 –> 00:20:46,880
In the afternoon there was a
morning sacrifice between 6:00
239
00:20:46,880 –> 00:20:50,800
and 7:00 and an evening
sacrifice between 2:00 and 3:00.
240
00:20:51,080 –> 00:20:56,640
And got often uses that time to
answer prayers.
241
00:20:57,560 –> 00:21:05,920
If you go to 1 Kings, just a few
examples. 1 Kings 18 I’m not
242
00:21:05,920 –> 00:21:09,040
suggesting that God doesn’t
answer at any other time, but
243
00:21:09,040 –> 00:21:14,320
there are special times when God
answers prayer in because the
244
00:21:14,320 –> 00:21:19,680
big sacrifice of Elijah on Mount
Carmel, he mocked the priest of
245
00:21:19,960 –> 00:21:26,480
Baal and in verse 29 it says it
came to pass when midday was
246
00:21:26,480 –> 00:21:30,720
passed and they prophesied until
the time of the offering of the
247
00:21:31,080 –> 00:21:35,120
evening sacrifice.
It was now 2:00 in the
248
00:21:35,120 –> 00:21:38,520
afternoon.
There was neither the force nor
249
00:21:38,520 –> 00:21:42,440
any answer nor any of the
regardless and any licenses to
250
00:21:42,440 –> 00:21:45,080
the people come near to me and
they repair the arts of Yahweh
251
00:21:45,080 –> 00:21:52,120
that was broken down and then
God answered him by fire.
252
00:21:52,720 –> 00:21:57,440
During the time of the evening
sacrifice when incense was
253
00:21:57,440 –> 00:22:03,240
offered in the Tabernacle.
We looked earlier at Zechariah’s
254
00:22:03,960 –> 00:22:06,800
in Luk 1:00.
We we looked at this before that
255
00:22:07,040 –> 00:22:12,800
it was John’s Lotto burn incense
in the Temple of the Lords and
256
00:22:12,800 –> 00:22:17,720
how people of the multitude of
people outside praying outside
257
00:22:17,760 –> 00:22:22,200
at the time of incense and the
ace appeared at the side of the
258
00:22:22,200 –> 00:22:26,720
altar of incense and he says
that prayer is heard.
259
00:22:28,920 –> 00:22:34,080
Jesus died at the 9th hour of
the day.
260
00:22:34,800 –> 00:22:37,960
It says in Mark 15 when the 6th
hour was come, there was
261
00:22:37,960 –> 00:22:41,600
darkness over the whole length
until the 9th hour and at the
262
00:22:41,600 –> 00:22:45,680
9th hour Jesus cried with a loud
voice saying Ali Ali Lama SA
263
00:22:45,680 –> 00:22:52,760
Bahtani and God hurt him and he
saved him from death because he
264
00:22:52,760 –> 00:22:59,000
prayed at the hour of incense.
The words he said were Psalm 22.
265
00:22:59,920 –> 00:23:03,160
The high priest on the Day of
Atonement went with incense into
266
00:23:03,160 –> 00:23:06,560
the Most Holy.
He couldn’t go without incense.
267
00:23:07,040 –> 00:23:12,200
And Jesus also was the incense
of Psalm 22 on his lips entered
268
00:23:12,240 –> 00:23:17,360
into the Most Holy, and there
was still in use in the Acts of
269
00:23:17,360 –> 00:23:20,920
the apostle.
Look at Acts chapter 3 for
270
00:23:20,920 –> 00:23:34,670
example.
Now Peter and John went up
271
00:23:34,670 –> 00:23:42,150
together into the temple at the
hour of prayer being the 9th.
272
00:23:43,270 –> 00:23:47,510
There’s a time of the evening
sacrifice when they offered
273
00:23:47,550 –> 00:23:53,600
incense or incense and prayer
are linked together and then
274
00:23:53,600 –> 00:23:56,320
also certain men laying from his
mother’s womb carried whom they
275
00:23:56,320 –> 00:23:58,680
lay daily at the gate with a
temperature called beautiful.
276
00:23:59,400 –> 00:24:03,640
And then Peter said, silver and
gold have I known in verse 6,
277
00:24:03,640 –> 00:24:06,400
but such as I give thee in the
name of Jesus of Christ of
278
00:24:06,400 –> 00:24:10,840
Nazareth, rise up and walk.
That prayer was answered because
279
00:24:10,840 –> 00:24:13,840
it was the hour of prayer, the
hour of incense.
280
00:24:13,840 –> 00:24:18,160
And again Peter had a vision in
Acts chapter 10 of that sheet
281
00:24:18,160 –> 00:24:23,240
coming down at the 9th hour of
the day, and the Angel came to
282
00:24:23,240 –> 00:24:26,640
him.
Cornelius was praying at the 9th
283
00:24:26,680 –> 00:24:30,280
hour of the day, and he received
an answer.
284
00:24:30,840 –> 00:24:37,240
These men knew the principle of
incense and of prayer, and they
285
00:24:37,240 –> 00:24:41,120
received an answer to their
prayer of faith.
286
00:24:42,120 –> 00:24:47,920
And we can be sure that when we
use the fruit of lips created by
287
00:24:47,920 –> 00:24:53,840
God’s Holy Spirit that was on
David, that our words will be
288
00:24:53,840 –> 00:25:00,040
acceptable and that we will have
peace with God and that He will
289
00:25:00,240 –> 00:25:05,160
heal us as He promised if He do
this acceptably.
290
00:25:05,920 –> 00:25:10,680
And we really mean the words
which we say with all our hearts
291
00:25:12,400 –> 00:25:26,840
should be read in Romans chapter
8, the difficult verse 26.
292
00:25:32,640 –> 00:25:36,240
Likewise, the Spirit also help
us, our infirmities.
293
00:25:36,480 –> 00:25:40,640
What is our infirmity?
We don’t know what we should
294
00:25:40,640 –> 00:25:45,280
pray for, as we must check Acts
in the Greek and we can all
295
00:25:45,280 –> 00:25:48,680
identify with that.
It’s difficult to pray,
296
00:25:49,280 –> 00:25:52,760
especially in public and if you
listen to the prayers, sincere
297
00:25:52,760 –> 00:25:56,840
prayers, we often fall into the
same phraseology.
298
00:25:57,760 –> 00:26:04,200
It’s difficult to pray and to
know that God, will you hear
299
00:26:04,200 –> 00:26:07,360
your prayer?
Are we using the right words?
300
00:26:08,080 –> 00:26:11,160
And therefore it says, the
Spirit itself make us
301
00:26:11,160 –> 00:26:16,080
intercession for us with
groanings which cannot be
302
00:26:16,080 –> 00:26:21,240
uttered.
We cannot improve on the words
303
00:26:21,240 –> 00:26:26,400
of the Psalms in our prayer, the
Spirit words which David
304
00:26:26,400 –> 00:26:29,840
composed on the sounds.
Those Spirit words, if he use
305
00:26:29,840 –> 00:26:33,600
them, they make intercession for
us because they are God’s words.
306
00:26:33,960 –> 00:26:36,800
They are God’s fruit of lips
which he has prepared.
307
00:26:36,800 –> 00:26:41,120
David said in Psalm 51, Open
down my lips and my mouth shall
308
00:26:41,120 –> 00:26:47,160
show forth thy praise.
God has prepared the praise
309
00:26:47,360 –> 00:26:52,280
which we should use to offer up
to Him, and that is acceptable
310
00:26:52,400 –> 00:26:56,560
to God.
But like all prayers, we need to
311
00:26:56,560 –> 00:27:02,240
mean what we say.
He that searches the heart knows
312
00:27:02,240 –> 00:27:06,000
what is the mind of the Spirit,
because it makes intercession
313
00:27:06,000 –> 00:27:07,960
for the Saints according to the
will of God.
314
00:27:08,520 –> 00:27:12,520
There’s no point saying things
and you don’t mean them.
315
00:27:14,800 –> 00:27:21,120
And then of course we belong to
that spiritual priesthood.
316
00:27:21,120 –> 00:27:23,600
As Peter says, ye are living
stones.
317
00:27:23,600 –> 00:27:28,000
Build up a spiritual house and
holy priesthood to OfferUp
318
00:27:28,000 –> 00:27:34,400
spiritual sacrifices acceptable
to God by Jesus Christ, because
319
00:27:34,400 –> 00:27:37,840
only through Jesus Christ that
we can approach the Father.
320
00:27:39,120 –> 00:27:43,080
And David was not the first one
to use psalms.
321
00:27:44,960 –> 00:27:50,360
You know very well that Psalm 90
is a Psalm of Moses.
322
00:27:51,480 –> 00:27:56,400
The principle of using the best
fruits to offer to God was
323
00:27:56,400 –> 00:28:01,440
already established.
Then if you go to Exodus chapter
324
00:28:01,440 –> 00:28:07,000
15, because there’s victory song
after the Egyptian army was
325
00:28:07,000 –> 00:28:17,320
drowned in the Red Sea, Exodus
15 then sang Moses and the
326
00:28:17,320 –> 00:28:20,240
children of Israel this song
unto Yahweh and speak, saying, I
327
00:28:20,240 –> 00:28:23,440
will sing unto Yahweh, For he
has tried gloriously the horse
328
00:28:23,440 –> 00:28:25,320
in his right as he’s thrown into
the sea.
329
00:28:26,040 –> 00:28:33,320
And then he says, Yeah is my
strength and Psalm towards
330
00:28:33,320 –> 00:28:38,000
Zimbra towards for Psalm, and He
will become my salvation.
331
00:28:38,440 –> 00:28:41,400
He is my ale.
And I will prepare a habitation,
332
00:28:41,800 –> 00:28:44,880
My father’s Elohim, and I will
exalt him.
333
00:28:45,200 –> 00:28:48,360
And that first is used in Isaiah
chapter 12.
334
00:28:48,360 –> 00:28:53,080
Also Yahweh is my strength and
Psalm.
335
00:28:55,960 –> 00:29:00,440
In Judges we have the song of
Deborah and Barack, and that
336
00:29:00,440 –> 00:29:06,160
falls in the same category.
In Judges chapter 5 we have the
337
00:29:06,160 –> 00:29:17,440
song of Deborah and it says in
verse 3 Hear O ye kings give,
338
00:29:17,440 –> 00:29:23,320
hear ye Princess I I will sing
unto Yahweh, I will Sam to
339
00:29:23,320 –> 00:29:26,960
Yahweh, elim of Israel.
It’s the word Zimran.
340
00:29:28,160 –> 00:29:32,040
It’s the best fruits that have
been pruned down so only the
341
00:29:32,080 –> 00:29:36,760
pure words are left.
So the Israelites were therefore
342
00:29:36,760 –> 00:29:42,400
used to the concept of psalming
using the best fruit which have
343
00:29:42,400 –> 00:29:46,720
been induced by the Holy Spirit
itself from early on in their
344
00:29:46,720 –> 00:29:52,680
history.
And you wonder why the
345
00:29:53,080 –> 00:29:55,400
dispensation of Israel came to
an end.
346
00:29:56,880 –> 00:30:00,840
Why did God destroy that nation
and the first temple by the
347
00:30:00,840 –> 00:30:06,920
Babylonians?
It is because they refused to
348
00:30:06,920 –> 00:30:10,240
use the Psalms.
And that’s what it says in
349
00:30:10,240 –> 00:30:31,810
Ezekiel chapter 8
in Ezekiel 8 verse 17.
350
00:30:32,050 –> 00:30:34,650
Then he said unto me, Has thou
seen this old son of man?
351
00:30:35,690 –> 00:30:38,330
It’s a light thing to the House
of Judah that they commit the
352
00:30:38,330 –> 00:30:40,170
abominations.
Would they commit here?
353
00:30:40,850 –> 00:30:44,490
For they filled the land is
violence, and have returned to
354
00:30:44,490 –> 00:30:48,090
provoke me to anger.
And though they put the branch
355
00:30:48,090 –> 00:30:51,760
to their nose.
Have you ever put a branch to
356
00:30:51,760 –> 00:30:54,680
your nose?
It’s rather strange, isn’t it?
357
00:30:54,680 –> 00:30:57,920
You put a branch in your nose,
it’s meaningless.
358
00:30:59,120 –> 00:31:04,360
The translators did not know how
to translate this.
359
00:31:05,760 –> 00:31:10,120
The word nose AF is also the
word for anger.
360
00:31:11,320 –> 00:31:14,080
Now when you’re angry, your nose
just flare up, don’t you?
361
00:31:14,760 –> 00:31:18,960
So nose and anger, the anger
shows in your nose, but the word
362
00:31:18,960 –> 00:31:24,720
branch is worth for Psalm.
They send away the psalms in
363
00:31:24,720 –> 00:31:26,840
their anger.
We don’t want to use the best
364
00:31:26,840 –> 00:31:30,040
fruits anymore.
So God didn’t listen to them
365
00:31:30,080 –> 00:31:33,320
anymore and the nation was
destroyed.
366
00:31:35,480 –> 00:31:40,120
It’s only through the mercy of
God that a remnant of Israel
367
00:31:40,120 –> 00:31:43,400
shall be saved.
And that’s what happened in
368
00:31:43,400 –> 00:31:50,960
Jeremiah chapter 33.
In Jeremiah 33, he says in verse
369
00:31:51,720 –> 00:31:58,920
8, after in verse seven, he will
cause the captivity of Judah and
370
00:31:58,920 –> 00:32:00,760
the captivity of Israel to
return.
371
00:32:00,960 –> 00:32:04,600
He will build a message at the
1st and then he says I will
372
00:32:04,600 –> 00:32:08,000
cleanse them from all their
iniquity whereby they have
373
00:32:08,000 –> 00:32:12,560
sinned against me, and I will
pardon all their iniquities
374
00:32:12,560 –> 00:32:17,120
whereby they have sinned and
thereby they have transgressed
375
00:32:17,360 –> 00:32:26,400
against me.
And then it says, I’m sorry,
376
00:32:26,400 –> 00:32:30,480
I’ve lost this.
Now at the same time it says
377
00:32:30,480 –> 00:32:38,080
I’ve also in verse 8, I will
cure them and reveal unto them
378
00:32:38,600 –> 00:32:42,920
the abundance of peace and
truth.
379
00:32:45,600 –> 00:32:48,040
I don’t have the right
references in this chapter.
380
00:32:49,320 –> 00:32:50,960
Yeah, for six.
Thank you very much, Brother
381
00:32:50,960 –> 00:32:54,040
David.
Now bring it to health and cure
382
00:32:54,280 –> 00:32:58,400
our cure them and reveal unto
them the abundance of peace and
383
00:32:58,400 –> 00:33:02,480
truth is not the word for
abundance, It is the word for
384
00:33:02,880 –> 00:33:06,760
entreat.
God is going to show them, to
385
00:33:06,800 –> 00:33:12,920
reveal unto them how to entreat,
how to pray in peace and of
386
00:33:13,160 –> 00:33:16,000
truth.
It’s the same word that was used
387
00:33:16,000 –> 00:33:20,560
by Isaac when he entreated
Yahweh for his wife because she
388
00:33:20,560 –> 00:33:24,480
was barren.
And only when Israel will use
389
00:33:24,480 –> 00:33:29,160
the best fruits which God has
prepared, then they will be
390
00:33:29,960 –> 00:33:32,920
allowed to return to the land.
Look what it says in Hosea
391
00:33:32,920 –> 00:33:51,800
chapter 14.
God wants Israel to come back to
392
00:33:51,800 –> 00:33:58,440
him and to pray to him.
It’s a return unto Yahweh, thy
393
00:33:58,440 –> 00:34:02,200
Elovene, for thou fallen by thy
iniquity.
394
00:34:03,080 –> 00:34:08,679
Take with you words, and turn to
Yahweh and say unto him, Take
395
00:34:08,679 –> 00:34:11,480
away all iniquity, and receive
us graciously.
396
00:34:11,760 –> 00:34:15,440
So shall we render the calves of
our lips?
397
00:34:16,480 –> 00:34:19,400
I’m glad I don’t have calves
walking on my ribs, on my lips.
398
00:34:19,880 –> 00:34:25,840
It’s the word parin.
It’s the word for fruits.
399
00:34:26,199 –> 00:34:33,120
Paris is fruit in Hebrew.
So we render the fruits of lips.
400
00:34:34,159 –> 00:34:38,679
Those are the best fruits which
God has prepared himself.
401
00:34:40,520 –> 00:34:44,159
It’s ever realised that they’ve
neglected the praise of Israel.
402
00:34:45,199 –> 00:34:48,560
If there’s 8 Ephraim to say,
what have I to do anymore with
403
00:34:48,600 –> 00:34:52,120
idols?
I’ve heard him and observed him.
404
00:34:52,639 –> 00:35:00,480
I’m like a green fir tree.
From me is die fruit found.
405
00:35:05,040 –> 00:35:09,200
So Brian says we don’t know what
we should pray for as we ought,
406
00:35:10,400 –> 00:35:14,720
but the Spirit itself make us
intercession for us, which words
407
00:35:14,960 –> 00:35:20,360
which can be uttered.
We cannot improve on the words
408
00:35:20,360 –> 00:35:26,000
of the Psalms in our prayers.
And I recommend to you to study
409
00:35:26,000 –> 00:35:30,320
the Psalms and to start using
them in your prayers.
410
00:35:31,200 –> 00:35:35,000
You know yourself that when you
hear a brother praying, the more
411
00:35:35,000 –> 00:35:38,720
scripture he uses in his prayer,
the more powerful it is.
412
00:35:39,560 –> 00:35:43,360
But if you use the best fruits
which God has created, then we
413
00:35:43,360 –> 00:35:48,560
can be sure that God will hear
us because the Spirit words make
414
00:35:48,560 –> 00:35:55,280
us intercession for us.
So we’ve learned that as first
415
00:35:55,280 –> 00:35:59,320
verse of the Psalms contain a
spiritual meaning that relates
416
00:35:59,320 –> 00:36:03,480
to the contents of the Psalms.
We’ve learned that word Psalm
417
00:36:03,480 –> 00:36:06,520
means best fruits.
The chief musician means to him
418
00:36:06,520 –> 00:36:09,400
that overcomes.
The Psalms were written to help
419
00:36:09,400 –> 00:36:13,920
David, but primarily Jesus to
overcome the world in themselves
420
00:36:14,480 –> 00:36:16,440
and they use them for their
prayers.
421
00:36:16,800 –> 00:36:21,200
And we too can be helped to
overcome when we use these words
422
00:36:21,440 –> 00:36:26,240
in our prayers.
See the word groanings in
423
00:36:26,240 –> 00:36:29,040
Romans.
These groanings which cannot be
424
00:36:29,040 –> 00:36:35,600
uttered is a bit of a difficult
word, but in Mark Chapter 7,
425
00:36:50,540 –> 00:36:59,420
that brought a man to Jesus who
was deaf and dumb, and he took
426
00:36:59,420 –> 00:37:04,700
him aside in verse 33 of Mark 7,
put his fingers in his ears and
427
00:37:04,700 –> 00:37:08,380
he spit and touched his tongue,
and looking up to heaven, he
428
00:37:08,380 –> 00:37:15,940
sighed.
I said to him, Ye Fatah, that is
429
00:37:16,720 –> 00:37:22,760
be opened in Second Corinthians
chapter 5.
430
00:37:36,520 –> 00:37:39,640
It says we know not.
We know that if our earthly
431
00:37:39,640 –> 00:37:41,960
House of this Tabernacle we
dissolve, we have a building
432
00:37:41,960 –> 00:37:45,160
which is off guard and house not
made with hands eternal in the
433
00:37:45,160 –> 00:37:49,520
heavens.
For in this we grown earnestly
434
00:37:49,520 –> 00:37:52,960
desire to be closed upon as a
house which is in from heaven.
435
00:37:53,240 –> 00:37:56,520
If so be that being closed, we
shall not be found naked for it.
436
00:37:57,000 –> 00:38:00,840
We that are in this Tabernacle
do groan, being burdened, not
437
00:38:00,840 –> 00:38:04,280
for that we would be unclothed,
but closed upon that mortality
438
00:38:04,280 –> 00:38:09,560
might be swallowed up in life.
This word grown stenazo in the
439
00:38:09,560 –> 00:38:11,240
Greek.
It’s the same as the groanings
440
00:38:11,240 –> 00:38:15,240
of Romans chapter 8 and 26.
Doesn’t mean to complain because
441
00:38:15,240 –> 00:38:19,080
you’re fed up.
It expresses a longing for our
442
00:38:19,080 –> 00:38:22,320
sufferings to be over.
If we don’t suffer, we don’t
443
00:38:22,320 –> 00:38:25,680
long to be saved.
And if you use the words of the
444
00:38:25,680 –> 00:38:31,720
Psalms, which are the spirit
words of Christ, then those
445
00:38:31,720 –> 00:38:37,480
spirit words make intercession
for us, because we cannot utter
446
00:38:37,800 –> 00:38:41,400
those deep groanings which we
read of in the Psalms.
447
00:38:41,400 –> 00:38:45,160
When David was persecuted, when
Jesus was persecuted, when he
448
00:38:45,400 –> 00:38:50,680
healed that the man, he groaned
in himself, because he saw in
449
00:38:50,680 –> 00:38:55,560
that man the result of sin.
We were all born blind.
450
00:38:55,800 –> 00:38:59,680
We are not born Mr. Knowledge of
God and he has must have grown
451
00:38:59,680 –> 00:39:03,000
to God with those groanings
which can be uttered using the
452
00:39:03,000 –> 00:39:08,000
words of Psalm of the Psalms.
Yahweh, heal me for my bones.
453
00:39:08,000 –> 00:39:10,880
I vexed.
My soul is also so vexed.
454
00:39:11,120 –> 00:39:13,240
But thou Yahweh.
How long?
455
00:39:13,760 –> 00:39:16,440
Psalm number six.
That’s what Jesus would have
456
00:39:16,440 –> 00:39:19,240
done.
Not from home would have deaf
457
00:39:19,240 –> 00:39:24,040
meant to heal.
Now he felt the result of sin in
458
00:39:24,040 –> 00:39:27,200
himself, as it were, when that
man stood in front of him.
459
00:39:29,680 –> 00:39:35,440
Yeah, of course, many words in
the sounds which have never been
460
00:39:35,440 –> 00:39:38,440
translated, and that’s a great
pity.
461
00:39:39,000 –> 00:39:44,400
And this study is far too short
to go into all of them.
462
00:39:45,480 –> 00:39:48,520
We see words like silam.
Soon I’ll be talking about the
463
00:39:48,520 –> 00:39:51,400
word silam.
It doesn’t mean to pause or
464
00:39:51,400 –> 00:39:54,160
anything or go on to the next
section of the sound.
465
00:39:54,520 –> 00:39:56,280
It’s got something to do with
value.
466
00:39:57,080 –> 00:40:01,040
Nekhilot, and you have all these
words on that handout which you
467
00:40:01,040 –> 00:40:05,120
should have as nikhilot means
inheritance.
468
00:40:05,360 –> 00:40:09,360
Shigayong, the word used by
habakkuk means wanderings,
469
00:40:09,840 –> 00:40:14,320
Higayong means meditation shaman
it means anointing, miktam means
470
00:40:14,320 –> 00:40:17,800
Mart, and so on.
All these words should have been
471
00:40:17,800 –> 00:40:23,200
translated in the psalms.
Alamat means over death.
472
00:40:23,280 –> 00:40:25,560
Go to Psalm 9 for example, where
it is used.
473
00:40:26,280 –> 00:40:29,200
And they have all sort of
stories about a champion and
474
00:40:29,200 –> 00:40:32,640
things like that, but it doesn’t
mean that at all.
475
00:40:35,800 –> 00:40:41,360
Psalm 9, the first verse or the
title says to the chief musician
476
00:40:41,400 –> 00:40:45,040
upon Mukhla Ben, the Psalm of
David.
477
00:40:46,600 –> 00:40:52,760
And they referred it to Goliath
because men of sons is a
478
00:40:52,920 –> 00:40:55,680
champion.
It doesn’t mean that says to
479
00:40:55,680 –> 00:41:03,720
achieve musician to him that
overcomes upon mut upon Mavid.
480
00:41:04,320 –> 00:41:11,800
Mavid is the word for death.
Le Ben means for the son the
481
00:41:11,800 –> 00:41:15,040
Psalm best fruit for David,
which means the beloved.
482
00:41:15,040 –> 00:41:25,840
Are you right sister Beulah?
So this Psalm, which continues
483
00:41:25,840 –> 00:41:31,200
in Psalm 10, is written to him
that overcome is over death.
484
00:41:32,240 –> 00:41:38,440
It’s for the Son, the best
fruits for the beloved, because
485
00:41:38,440 –> 00:41:43,920
names also have a meaning.
David is of course, David, the
486
00:41:43,920 –> 00:41:46,520
son of Jesse, but his name means
the beloved.
487
00:41:46,920 –> 00:41:50,000
Who is the great beloved of God.
Is it not the Lord Jesus Christ
488
00:41:50,760 –> 00:41:53,280
we saw yesterday in the title
Psalm 18?
489
00:41:53,480 –> 00:41:57,040
Saul was certainly a person that
lived at the time of David, but
490
00:41:57,040 –> 00:42:02,160
his name means the grave, the
Psalms for the sons of Korra.
491
00:42:02,840 –> 00:42:07,600
Korra means being bold, Korea,
like what a young man said to
492
00:42:07,600 –> 00:42:10,720
Elijah, the prophet you bought,
and you Korea, you Korea.
493
00:42:11,760 –> 00:42:16,240
But when you’re in mourning, the
men used to shave off their
494
00:42:16,240 –> 00:42:18,520
head.
So when you see a man that is
495
00:42:18,520 –> 00:42:22,120
shaved, he’s in mourning.
And though we do mourn if we
496
00:42:22,120 –> 00:42:26,040
suffer for Christ, and those
psalms are used in the time of
497
00:42:26,040 –> 00:42:29,640
mourning, the psalms for asaf.
But asaf means a gathering, a
498
00:42:29,640 –> 00:42:32,560
meeting in ecclesia.
We are in asifa at the moment.
499
00:42:32,760 –> 00:42:36,160
So we can use certain psalms by
the whole ecclesia.
500
00:42:36,160 –> 00:42:40,880
And you do.
Some means confession, but I’d
501
00:42:40,880 –> 00:42:45,240
like to pay some attention to
the word sealer.
502
00:42:45,280 –> 00:42:48,240
Because 70.
One times in the Book of the
503
00:42:48,240 –> 00:42:52,720
Psalms and three times in the
prayer of Habakkuk.
504
00:42:55,200 –> 00:42:56,640
But often we don’t read it, do
we?
505
00:42:59,080 –> 00:43:03,800
If you have a brother.
Called up to read a Psalm more
506
00:43:03,800 –> 00:43:05,080
often.
Than not, he doesn’t read.
507
00:43:05,080 –> 00:43:10,480
The title doesn’t say Sila
doesn’t say the word Higayon
508
00:43:10,480 –> 00:43:13,240
because we don’t understand them
yet.
509
00:43:13,240 –> 00:43:16,680
That part of the Holy Spirit
Word of God.
510
00:43:17,040 –> 00:43:19,280
So therefore they must have a
meaning.
511
00:43:25,480 –> 00:43:39,530
If you go to Psalm 3
three times in this.
512
00:43:39,530 –> 00:43:46,730
Psalm, the word sealer, is used.
Yeah, how are it served?
513
00:43:46,730 –> 00:43:49,170
Psalm of David the best fruit
for the Beloved when he fled
514
00:43:49,170 –> 00:43:51,080
from Absalom Nissan.
Yeah.
515
00:43:51,080 –> 00:43:53,000
How are they increase that
trouble me?
516
00:43:53,280 –> 00:43:57,400
Many are they that rise up
against me, many that say of my
517
00:43:57,400 –> 00:44:02,240
soul there’s no salvation would
help us Salvation for him in a
518
00:44:02,240 –> 00:44:07,080
living sea land.
But though you are the shield
519
00:44:07,080 –> 00:44:08,560
for.
Me my glory, in the lift up of
520
00:44:08,560 –> 00:44:11,120
my head I cried unto Yahweh’s my
voice.
521
00:44:11,120 –> 00:44:15,040
And he says, I will cry unto
Yahweh’s my voice, and He will
522
00:44:15,040 –> 00:44:17,600
hear me out of His holy hill,
sea land.
523
00:44:18,920 –> 00:44:22,240
I laid me down and slept.
I await for Yahweh sustained me.
524
00:44:22,640 –> 00:44:25,720
I’ll not be afraid of 10,000 of
people that have set themselves
525
00:44:25,720 –> 00:44:27,920
against me roundabout.
Arise.
526
00:44:27,920 –> 00:44:31,440
Yahweh saved me my Elohim, for
Thou smitten all mine enemies
527
00:44:31,440 –> 00:44:34,880
upon the cheekbone that has
broken the teeth of the ungodly.
528
00:44:36,000 –> 00:44:40,280
Salvation which was denied to
Him in verse 2.
529
00:44:40,280 –> 00:44:42,680
They said no salvation for him
in Elohim.
530
00:44:43,160 –> 00:44:47,000
Salvation belongs unto Yahweh,
Thy blessing upon Thy people.
531
00:44:47,240 –> 00:44:53,560
See La.
But if you read in.
532
00:44:53,560 –> 00:44:56,320
The commentaries people don’t
know what to do with this word.
533
00:44:56,680 –> 00:45:00,840
Some people say it means lifting
up the voice in song to make a
534
00:45:00,840 –> 00:45:05,320
pause or to proceed to the next
section of the sound.
535
00:45:06,000 –> 00:45:10,560
There’s no conclusive evidence
in all the writings about this
536
00:45:10,560 –> 00:45:14,240
word sila, and you read often
statements like this.
537
00:45:14,240 –> 00:45:18,560
We are left in the domain of
surmise regarding the meaning of
538
00:45:18,560 –> 00:45:22,440
the term sila.
You frequently encounter that.
539
00:45:23,360 –> 00:45:26,560
So how do you deal with
difficult words, words that are
540
00:45:26,560 –> 00:45:32,120
left untranslated in the Bible?
As I said before, we need to go
541
00:45:32,120 –> 00:45:37,800
to the first time that word is
used and in this case we need to
542
00:45:37,800 –> 00:45:43,600
go to the book of Job in chapter
28 where it were the same word
543
00:45:43,600 –> 00:45:47,600
Selah is used but now it has
been translated the.
544
00:45:57,470 –> 00:46:00,990
Chapters start by.
Seeing how men dig down deep in
545
00:46:00,990 –> 00:46:04,630
the earth and they bring all
sort of wonderful things out of
546
00:46:04,630 –> 00:46:08,550
their minds and speaks about
path, which we don’t know about
547
00:46:08,550 –> 00:46:12,040
it.
And when he looked at the and
548
00:46:12,040 –> 00:46:16,400
devils of men to find things, he
asked the right question.
549
00:46:17,280 –> 00:46:19,160
Churches, where shall wisdom be
found?
550
00:46:19,880 –> 00:46:23,560
And where’s the place of
understanding man knows?
551
00:46:23,560 –> 00:46:26,360
Not the price thereof.
Nor is it found in the land of
552
00:46:26,360 –> 00:46:28,400
the living.
The depth says not, is not.
553
00:46:28,440 –> 00:46:31,480
The depth says not in me.
The sea says not with me.
554
00:46:31,840 –> 00:46:35,000
It cannot be gotten for the
gold, nor there shall self be
555
00:46:35,000 –> 00:46:38,920
weighed for the price thereof.
It cannot be sealard.
556
00:46:38,920 –> 00:46:44,120
That’s the word sealer.
Valued with the gold of.
557
00:46:44,120 –> 00:46:50,080
Ophir with the precious Onyx or
the sapphire again in verse 19.
558
00:46:50,080 –> 00:46:52,520
The Topaz of Ethiopia shall not
equal it now.
559
00:46:52,520 –> 00:46:56,440
It shall be sealed with pure
gold.
560
00:46:57,440 –> 00:47:02,720
It’s something of great value,
something of great price, when
561
00:47:02,720 –> 00:47:04,160
it is stuck at the end of a
verse.
562
00:47:04,160 –> 00:47:09,360
We should pay special attention
to the value of what is written
563
00:47:09,520 –> 00:47:16,520
in that particular sentence.
It’s also used in.
564
00:47:16,600 –> 00:47:33,360
Habakkuk, Chapter 3.
Actually it is used 3.
565
00:47:33,360 –> 00:47:41,680
Times In this prayer of Habakkuk
you have the.
566
00:47:41,680 –> 00:47:46,760
Verse 3.
Alvin shell come from Teeman and
567
00:47:46,760 –> 00:47:49,560
the Holy One from Mount Paran
Seela.
568
00:47:52,320 –> 00:47:55,840
Verse 9.
Thy bow was made quite naked,
569
00:47:55,840 –> 00:48:00,360
according to the oath of the
tribes, even thy word Seela.
570
00:48:03,120 –> 00:48:05,920
And in verse 13, thou wentest.
Forth for the salvation of thy
571
00:48:05,920 –> 00:48:09,400
people, even the salvation which
thine anointed, thou woundest
572
00:48:09,400 –> 00:48:11,880
the head out of the House of the
wicket, by discovering the
573
00:48:11,880 –> 00:48:17,080
foundation unto the neck seala.
Why?
574
00:48:17,520 –> 00:48:20,640
3.
Times this word seala.
575
00:48:21,760 –> 00:48:28,160
Well, verse 3 is not difficult
to understand because Elohim.
576
00:48:28,160 –> 00:48:30,280
Shall come from Teeman.
And the holy one from Mount
577
00:48:30,280 –> 00:48:37,440
Paran, Sila, well Moses spoke
about it in Deuteronomy, and so
578
00:48:37,440 –> 00:48:41,640
does Jute, quoting Enoch.
Yahweh came from Sinai, and Rosa
579
00:48:41,640 –> 00:48:44,280
from seer unto them.
He shined forth from Mount
580
00:48:44,280 –> 00:48:47,040
Paran, and he came with 10,000
of Saints.
581
00:48:47,280 –> 00:48:50,440
From his right hand went the
fiery law for them.
582
00:48:50,920 –> 00:48:53,200
That is Deuteronomy 33 and verse
2.
583
00:48:55,880 –> 00:48:59,160
And these words.
We should know almost by heart.
584
00:49:01,400 –> 00:49:05,080
There are many verses in the.
Bible that use in the Psalms
585
00:49:05,080 –> 00:49:08,200
that use that first that first.
Selah.
586
00:49:09,000 –> 00:49:14,160
And in verse 13 is the very
same, Thou woundest the head out
587
00:49:14,160 –> 00:49:17,160
of the House of the wicked, by
discovering the foundation unto
588
00:49:17,160 –> 00:49:18,120
the neck.
Selah.
589
00:49:18,600 –> 00:49:22,240
Think of Psalm 110.
When Christ shall become king,
590
00:49:22,240 –> 00:49:26,320
he will destroy the head of over
all those nations.
591
00:49:27,320 –> 00:49:30,480
But first nine is difficult to
understand it.
592
00:49:32,520 –> 00:49:36,240
Says thy Bo was made.
Quite naked according to the
593
00:49:36,240 –> 00:49:41,400
oaths of the tribes.
Even thy word sealer cut out the
594
00:49:41,520 –> 00:49:52,800
italics first of all, and it
actually means thy Bo not shall
595
00:49:52,800 –> 00:49:53,960
be.
Made make it shall.
596
00:49:53,960 –> 00:50:00,440
Be filled.
There’s the tribes saying the
597
00:50:00,440 –> 00:50:04,320
word Selah.
There’s those.
598
00:50:04,320 –> 00:50:08,560
People that.
Know how to use the word Selah,
599
00:50:08,560 –> 00:50:12,400
or rather the verses which have
that Selah, those centres of
600
00:50:12,400 –> 00:50:16,080
great value.
It says in Psalm 3, for example,
601
00:50:16,080 –> 00:50:18,920
there are many that say my soul,
there’s no salvation for him.
602
00:50:18,920 –> 00:50:20,520
In Aladeen we looked at that
Psalm.
603
00:50:20,960 –> 00:50:24,520
So in Psalm 20, remember all thy
offerings, and except Thy burnt
604
00:50:24,520 –> 00:50:25,920
sacrifice.
Sea Land.
605
00:50:26,520 –> 00:50:28,960
Psalm 32.
That was my hiding place, that
606
00:50:28,960 –> 00:50:31,800
shall preserve me from trouble,
that shall compass me about the
607
00:50:31,800 –> 00:50:34,240
songs of deliverance.
Sea Land.
608
00:50:35,480 –> 00:50:38,200
Psalm 73.
I remembered Elohim, and I was
609
00:50:38,200 –> 00:50:40,600
troubled.
I complained and my spirit was
610
00:50:40,600 –> 00:50:42,480
overwhelmed.
Sea Land.
611
00:50:44,240 –> 00:50:47,360
They’re like short prayers.
It reminds of Nehemiah that he
612
00:50:47,640 –> 00:50:50,640
said a very short prayer at the
moment and if he would learn
613
00:50:50,640 –> 00:50:57,080
those zeal our verses, then we
may be used by the Lord Jesus
614
00:50:57,080 –> 00:51:01,400
Christ like arrows in his bows
when he comes back to set up his
615
00:51:01,400 –> 00:51:07,600
Kingdom and destroy his enemies.
So these things are.
616
00:51:07,600 –> 00:51:10,160
Wonderful.
We should learn them by heart.
617
00:51:10,440 –> 00:51:13,880
We should use them in our
prayers, and if you had a
618
00:51:13,880 –> 00:51:17,640
difficult day, as we all have,
what better day to end with
619
00:51:17,640 –> 00:51:21,320
Psalm 4?
Stand in all and sin not,
620
00:51:21,680 –> 00:51:25,640
commune with your own heart upon
your bed and be still.
621
00:51:26,360 –> 00:51:30,920
Sea land.
So Ben and sisters, I hope.
622
00:51:30,920 –> 00:51:37,280
That this may have helped you a
bit in seeing how important it
623
00:51:37,280 –> 00:51:43,520
is to use the Psalms in our
prayers and in our worship to
624
00:51:43,520 –> 00:51:48,000
God.
They should be the fruit of our
625
00:51:48,200 –> 00:51:50,600
of lips, which should come of
our lips.
626
00:51:50,640 –> 00:51:55,120
Open down my lips, says David,
And my mouth shall shall forth
627
00:51:55,240 –> 00:51:58,760
die praise.
There’s one last first.
628
00:51:58,760 –> 00:52:18,200
I’d like the quotas of Psalm 65.
To the chief musician.
629
00:52:18,200 –> 00:52:21,520
To him that overcome us the best
fruits, the song of David.
630
00:52:22,600 –> 00:52:25,640
Praise waiters for thee Elohim
in Zion.
631
00:52:27,680 –> 00:52:34,000
But look at the margin.
It says praise is silent to.
632
00:52:34,000 –> 00:52:39,520
Thee O.
God in Zion how can we praise
633
00:52:39,520 –> 00:52:43,200
God and be silent?
It says in.
634
00:52:43,200 –> 00:52:48,240
Ecclesiastes.
God is in heaven and you are
635
00:52:48,240 –> 00:52:53,400
upon the earth.
Therefore let your words be few.
636
00:52:54,040 –> 00:52:59,880
And if you use God’s words, then
we are silent because they’re
637
00:52:59,880 –> 00:53:02,240
not our words, they’re God’s
words.
638
00:53:02,880 –> 00:53:06,680
Those are the best fruits that
should be the fruit of our lips
639
00:53:07,480 –> 00:53:09,680
when we pray to our heavenly
fathers.
640
00:53:10,360 –> 00:53:14,200
And then we can be sure that He
will hear our prayers.
