The Good News of Redemption!
Psalm 40
- Mike Fritscher, pastor

God Rescues You From Destruction and Gives You Life!

It's the Theme of God! The Theme of Scripture!

1 Timothy 1:15 It is a trustworthy statement, deserving full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, among whom I am foremost of all.

Psalm 38:1 O LORD, rebuke me not in Your wrath, And chasten me not in Your burning anger. 3 There is no soundness in my flesh because of Your indignation; There is no health in my bones because of my sin. 4 For my iniquities are gone over my head; As a heavy burden they weigh too much for me. 5 My wounds grow foul and fester Because of my folly. 6 I am bent over and greatly bowed down; I go mourning all day long. 8 " Deliver me from all my transgressions; Make me not the reproach of the foolish. 18 For I confess my iniquity; I am full of anxiety because of my sin.

Psalm 39:10 "Remove Your plague from me; Because of the opposition of Your hand I am perishing. 11 "With reproofs You chasten a man for iniquity; You consume as a moth what is precious to him; Surely every man is a mere breath. 12 " Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear to my cry; Do not be silent at my tears; For I am a stranger with You, A sojourner like all my fathers.
