Passage: Psalm 118:15-29

-------------------

PSALM 118:15-29 God\u2019s steadfast love (2): A salvation to rejoice in

1) The salvation of God\u2019s king (v15-22)

Exodus 15:1-18

Luke 20:17-18 - But Jesus looked directly at them and said, \u201cWhat then is this that is written: \u201c\u2018The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone\u2019? Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, and when it falls on anyone, it will crush him.\u201d

Acts 4:10-12

2) The salvation of God\u2019s people (v23-29)

Luke 19:37-39 - As Jesus was drawing near\u2014already on the way down the Mount of Olives\u2014the whole multitude of his disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen, saying, \u201cBlessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!\u201d And some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, \u201cTeacher, rebuke your disciples.\u201d He answered, \u201cI tell you, if these were silent, the very stones would cry out.\u201d

For further reflection and prayer:\nRead over the psalm slowly and reflect on how these words came to amazing fulfilment in the life of Jesus eg v.5 and Hebrews 5:7, v.10 and Acts 4:27, v.18 and Hebrews 5:8, v.19 and Hebrews 9:24, v.22 and Luke 20:17, Acts 4:11, Ephesians 2:20, 1 Peter 2:4-7, v.26 and Luke 19:38\nWhat in the psalm moves your heart so you can sing v28-29 and mean it?
