Life is a journey, and the fourth section of the Psalms, known as the Numbers' Psalms, show us the goodness and guidance of God along that journey.

If we want to move forward, we must look up. Let's join Scott Pauley now as we open the Word of God and find direction for the road of life.

There's a great deal of talk today about worship, and yet I wonder, I truly do, how much

0:41.3

actual worship is being done. Remember Jesus once said that the Father was seeking true

0:47.6

worshippers, those who would worship him in spirit and in truth. I think it's possible that much of what is called worship today is anything

1:58.2

That as we humble ourselves, the Lord lifts us up.

2:02.0

That if you want to ascend with Him, if you want to live in heavenly places, then you must first humble yourself.

2:07.6

Oh, come, let us worship and bow down. Let us kneel before the Lord our maker. We do not know exactly

2:15.6

who wrote Psalm 95 or the setting of it. Psalm 95 is quoted in the

2:20.1

New Testament. In fact, the writer of Hebrews quotes prolifically from this Psalm in Hebrews chapter
