Jesus | Our Provision (Psalm 40)

In this sermon, we explore Psalm 40 and see how it points to Jesus as our ultimate provision. The Psalm is divided into two distinct sections: thanksgiving and personal lament, yet it unifies in showing God’s faithfulness.

Sermon in a Sentence: Trust in God, obey His will, and proclaim His greatness while waiting patiently for Him to rescue you.

 

Here are the main points:

•Waiting with Patience (Psalm 40:1-2): Trust in God and wait confidently for His timing, knowing He will rescue you from your “desolate pit” and “muddy clay.”

•Sing God’s Praise (Psalm 40:3-5): Let God put a new song of praise in your mouth, sharing His goodness and faithfulness with others.

•Jesus, Our Provision (Psalm 40:6-8): Understand that Jesus is the ultimate fulfillment of God’s promises, offering one perfect sacrifice for all time.

•Rejoice in Proclamation (Psalm 40:9-10): Boldly proclaim God’s righteousness and faithfulness to others, completing your joy by sharing His work in your life.

•Plead with Cause (Psalm 40:11-17): Even in your pain, intertwine the praise of heaven with the struggles of earth, trusting in God’s compassion, love, and deliverance.
