A message from the series "Sunday Service." Today we want to delve into perhaps the oldest psalm in the Psalter, written by Moses, whose personal pilgrimage we will review as part of our background study of this psalm. Then we will follow his thoughts as he meditated on the fleetingness of human life and the intensity of God’s indignation toward His rebellious creatures, but we’ll also observe how Moses still dared to plead for God’s tender mercies as the true source of hope and joy for His people. We will seek to pray along with Moses as the Holy Spirit carried him through the whole gamut of a well-rounded conversation with God: from praise and confession to repentance, supplication and intercession.
In Joshua 23 - 24 we hear Joshua's final words to Israel before his death. In the lifetime of Joshua no pagan nation or city was able to stand against Israel as they walked with God. The Promised Land was conquered, but the Canaanites had not totally been driven out. That was the task that Joshua left to the next generation.
