Listen "Psalm 20: Sent to Serve in the Day of Trouble, Confident in Christ"
Episode Synopsis
Rev. Nathan Meador, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church in Plymouth, Wisconsin, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Psalm 20.
“May the LORD answer you in the day of trouble! May the name of the God of Jacob protect you!” Sometimes it feels like God uses Scripture to speak directly to us, in the midst of a coronavirus pandemic or whatever else. What beautiful prayers of peace we have in the Psalms!
Psalm 20 originally spoke of David going off to battle, sent from God’s sanctuary to defend His people. When David was saved, the people were saved. When Christ was raised from the dead, we received eternal life. We are sent to serve others even when we feel like hiding in fear; Christ wins the battle and the war. Our trust is not ultimately in chariots or vaccines, but Christ alone.
