📜 TODAY'S SCRIPTURE: Psalm 17
Hear a just cause, O Lord; attend to my cry!
Give ear to my prayer from lips free of deceit!
2 From your presence let my vindication come!
Let your eyes behold the right!
3 You have tried my heart, you have visited me by night,
you have tested me, and you will find nothing;
I have purposed that my mouth will not transgress.
4 With regard to the works of man, by the word of your lips
I have avoided the ways of the violent.
5 My steps have held fast to your paths;
my feet have not slipped.
6 I call upon you, for you will answer me, O God;
incline your ear to me; hear my words.
7 Wondrously show your steadfast love,
O Savior of those who seek refuge
from their adversaries at your right hand.
8 Keep me as the apple of your eye;
hide me in the shadow of your wings,
9 from the wicked who do me violence,
my deadly enemies who surround me.
10 They close their hearts to pity;
with their mouths they speak arrogantly.
11 They have now surrounded our steps;
they set their eyes to cast us to the ground.
12 He is like a lion eager to tear,
as a young lion lurking in ambush.
13 Arise, O Lord! Confront him, subdue him!
Deliver my soul from the wicked by your sword,
14 from men by your hand, O Lord,
from men of the world whose portion is in this life.
You fill their womb with treasure;
they are satisfied with children,
and they leave their abundance to their infants.
15 As for me, I shall behold your face in righteousness;
when I awake, I shall be satisfied with your likeness.

| 0:00.0 | Good morning my friends. It is time for the morning mindset. Are you ready to get |
| 0:06.6 | your mind aligned with the truth of God? We are going to do that this morning by |
| 0:10.7 | jumping right into Psalm 17. Now let me apologize right off the |
| 0:14.9 | back. I am parked in a place where doing this recording there may be traffic |
| 0:19.6 | zooming by right next to my window. And matter of fact, there goes one right now. |
| 0:24.0 | If you hear that, just know that's what's going on. |
| 0:27.0 | In a way I can avoid it. |
| 0:29.0 | So today, we are going to talk about Psalm 17, |
| 0:32.0 | and I want you to think about the difference between being |
| 0:37.2 | assured in your own heart and mind that you are right with God and being arrogant. Okay, so let me say that again. |
| 0:47.2 | Think about the difference between being arrogant and being proud and on the other hand being assured of your right standing before God. There is a difference and sometimes it's a very subtle |
| 1:04.8 | nuance that we can come to there when we're trying to discern whether or not we are |
| 1:10.8 | acting boastfully or we're saying things in a boastful way. |
| 1:14.4 | Psalm 17 I have found is very helpful in that regard |
| 1:18.4 | because it is David praying to the Lord |
| 1:21.7 | about his own righteousness and about God's view of his own righteousness. |
| 1:28.6 | So let's listen to it. |
| 1:29.6 | It says, here a just cause, O Lord, attends to my cry. |
| 1:34.0 | Give ear to my prayer from lips free of deceit. |
| 1:38.0 | From your presence, let my vindication come. |
| 1:41.0 | Let your eyes behold the right. You have tried my heart. You have visited me by night. You have tested me and you will find nothing. |
| 1:58.2 | I have purposed that my mouth will not transgress. With regard to the works of man by the word of your lips I have avoided the ways of the violent. My steps have held fast to your paths. My feet have not slipped. |
