On Sunday, September 24, 2023 Dr. Jerry Shields preaches from Psalm 34, verses 11-22. “Living By God’s Grace”. We need a reverence before God. This is an attitude of our heart. When this takes place, we see a righteous life. The Lord is faithful. He will protect the righteous. He hears their cries. He is near to the brokenhearted.
Psalms 34:11-22
11 Come, my children, listen to me;
I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
12Whoever of you loves life
and desires to see many good days,
13keep your tongue from evil
and your lips from telling lies.
14Turn from evil and do good;
seek peace and pursue it.

15The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
and his ears are attentive to their cry;
16but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil,
to blot out their name from the earth.

17The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them;
he delivers them from all their troubles.
18The Lord is close to the brokenhearted
and saves those who are crushed in spirit.

19The righteous person may have many troubles,
but the Lord delivers him from them all;
20he protects all his bones,
not one of them will be broken.

21Evil will slay the wicked;
the foes of the righteous will be condemned.
22The Lord will rescue his servants;
no one who takes refuge in him will be condemned.
