Psalm 64:1-10
Introduction
Many of the Psalms are based on the affliction of good people. This Psalm is no different. There are many reasons, many times that righteous people suffer through no fault of their own!
1 Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
Mark 6:30-33
Introduction
Gen. 2:2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. 3 And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.

Psalm 88:1-7
Introduction
Some of the Psalms are like the bright sunny day, in which they simply praise the Lord! Others are like the cloudy dreary day in which it rains, but suddenly the clouds break way, and the sun begins to shine, and there is a bright and happy ending to the rainy day. Other Psalms are like that of a dreary storm, who’s clouds hang low, and cover for days on end. The rain doesn’t end, it simply drags on, and the sun doesn’t shine at the end of the chapter. This Psalm is like that, however we will find a ray of hope in all of it.
Psalm 102:1-12
Introduction
The Psalmist is overwhelmed here, but not because of a personal problem. It would seem in looking at it all, the Psalmist is concerned primarily with a national issue.
It would do us good, to be so heartbroken, grief stricken over the sin of our country, that we had this kind of a heart!

Psalm 119:49
Introduction
The Psalmist recounts the blessings of God’s word in his life. While this is a continual theme throughout the Psalm 119, it cannot be emphasized enough. The Bible should be our supreme, ultimate authority in our life.
There are three times the idea of remembering is brought up in this Psalm. Clearly, we need reminders in our life. Paul reminded Timothy

Psalm 119:73-75
Introduction
This section is JOD, which if you look at the Hebrew letter in your Bible, it is the smallest letter… Just like it says in Matthew 5:18
Matthew 5:18 — For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
David is up on the mountain tops, or down in valleys with little in between. We find him in this portion, down in the valley. With troubles, and hardships. Each time we see David in a valley, he comes out rejoicing. We find God, and the Word of God to always be his source of help, and strength. A great lesson for us.

Proverbs 19:13, 14, 18, 26
Introduction
There are three institutions that God created here on the earth, the Home, the church, and the government. None of these is as important as the home! It was the first one instituted. While church is certainly essential, a church can only be as strong as the families that make it up. We live in a day, where a family that was setup God’s way is rare to find. By the way, this is not new, if you read the OT, you will find that families were quite a mess many times in the OT as well.

Introduction
We have the six miscellaneous verses left in Proverbs 21 that I couldn’t put into a category. So we will cover several things and try to get through all of them this evening. These could all be thrown into a very general category of Life. How to live life.

Isaiah 26:3
Introduction
Peace is something much sought after in this world. I’m not talking about world peace, I’m talking about Personal Peace. Many people are seeking after peace. Many people turn to alcohol, drugs, or something that numbs their mind to find peace. The problem with that, it is only a temporary mask for peace, when the alcohol or drugs wears off, the problems are still there.
