How firm of a foundation he says of the Lord, He is laid for your faith in His excellent Word.

How do you react to times of suffering? Do you fall into self-pity and blame,

or do you cling to Him and linger in His presence? Welcome to Through the Bible with Dr. J.

Today the Bible bus starts out in Psalm 79 where we're going to hear about Israel's suffering

and the course of their prayers to God. So why you grab your copy of God's Word and find

your seat? Let's listen to a few thoughts Dr. McGee shared many years ago.

We are back in this wonderful song book of the Old Testament and it's a hymn book. It's all about

Him that is the Lord Jesus Christ. It's praises unto Him and that's one of the reasons that we find

the book of Psalms so intensely interesting and important for the believer today because we're

singing constantly praises to Him. Even those of us that can't sing in our hearts these Psalms

produce a song. Do you have a song that you like to sing about God's goodness?

We love receiving your letters telling us about all the great things that you're learning as we

study His Word together. Letters of praise like this one from Lynette means so much to us.

I praise God for the opportunity to study His Word and pray with other believers on the world

prayer team Lynette writes. It's a pleasure to connect with other believers to pray knowing that

Jesus is our example who is still making intercession for us. God is teaching me so many things including

that I cannot be selfish in prayer so I will continue to pray as long as God gives me breath and

strength and I will continue to proclaim that He is risen indeed. Well thanks Lynette I agree that

being part of the world prayer team really can change your heart and how you think about what God's

doing in people's lives around the world. You know if you'd like to join Lynette and myself as we

travel around the world figuratively speaking on our knees praying that God uses His whole word to

reach His whole world. Why don't you sign up today for those daily emails go to ttb.org forward slash
