| 0:00.0 | Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble, and I'm your host for the Bible Recap. |
| 0:11.5 | We covered seven Psalms today. |
| 0:14.6 | One of my favorite parts about Psalm 43 is how David preaches the truth to himself. |
| 0:20.0 | He's struggling and he feels far from God, |
| 0:22.2 | but he speaks reminders of the truth to his own soul in verse 5. Why are you downcast, |
| 0:27.5 | oh my soul, and why are you in turmoil within me? Hope in God, for I shall again praise him, |
| 0:33.9 | my salvation and my God. David tells his heart and mind what to do. This is exactly the |
| 0:40.8 | kind of thing Moses told the Israelites to do in tough times, to remember who God is and what he has done. |
| 0:46.5 | David is putting Moses' words into practice hundreds of years later. In Psalm 44, we see that the |
| 0:52.8 | writers, the sons of Cora, are even relying on the things God has done for their ancestors, not just themselves personally, as a source of praise. |
| 1:01.2 | They remember that God is the one who grants victory, not a man's strong arm or a sword or a bow, especially since sometimes Israel didn't even take weapons to war at all. |
| 1:12.8 | Remember back when Moses warned the Israelites against three kinds of sinful thinking? One was fearful thought and two were |
| 1:18.4 | prideful thoughts. In Deuteronomy 8, Moses addressed the second kind of prideful thought by saying, |
| 1:25.1 | Beware lest you say in your heart, my power and the might of my hand |
| 1:28.8 | have gotten me this wealth. You shall remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you power to |
| 1:33.7 | get wealth, that he may confirm his covenant that he swore to your fathers as it is this day. |
| 1:39.7 | Again, the writers are doing exactly what Moses encouraged them to do. They're walking in humility, |
| 1:45.5 | and it leads them to praise God. But right now, the sons of Cora are confused, because God |
| 1:51.0 | doesn't seem to currently be granting the kind of victory he did in the past. From their vantage point, |
| 1:56.7 | it seems like God has not kept up his end of the covenant, so they're taking that concern to God himself. |
| 2:02.8 | They have no idea what kind of sin might be prompting God's silence on their behalf, |
| 2:07.6 | and they ask God to come to their rescue. |
