God – My Greatest Desire Psalm 63

1 O God, You are my God; I shall seek You earnestly; My soul thirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You, In a dry and weary land where there is no water. 2 Thus I have seen You in the sanctuary, To see Your power and Your glory. 3 Because Your lovingkindness is better than life, My lips will praise You. 4 So I will bless You as long as I live; I will lift up my hands in Your name. 5 My soul is satisfied as with marrow and fatness, And my mouth offers praises with joyful lips. 6 When I remember You on my bed, I meditate on You in the night watches, 7 For You have been my help, And in the shadow of Your wings I sing for joy. 8 My soul clings to You; Your right hand upholds me. 9 But those who seek my life to destroy it, Will go into the [g]depths of the earth. 10 They will be delivered over to the power of the sword; They will be a prey for foxes. 11 But the king will rejoice in God; Everyone who swears by Him will glory, For the mouths of those who speak lies will be stopped.

2 Sam 12:10, “Now therefore, the sword shall never depart from your house, because you have despised Me and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your wife.”

OUTLINE: Three (3) focus points that should serve as a barometer for us to determine if our focus is in the right place despite our circumstances. 1. A focus on a yearning for God – Is God your Focus? (1 – 4) 2. A Focus on finding Satisfaction in God – Is God your Satisfaction? (5 – 7) 3. A Focus on Finding peace in God’s Judgment – Do you understand that Vengeance belongs to the Lord? (8 - 11)

A FOCUS ON A YEARNING FOR GOD – IS GOD YOU FOCUS?

Matt 13:44, "The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in the field, which a man found and hid again; and from joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field."

Rom 7:24: "Wretched man that I am! Who will set me free from the body of this death?” "Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord!”

A FOCUS ON FINDING SATISATION IN GOD – IS GOD YOUR SATISFACTION? A FOCUS ON A YEARNING FOR GOD – IS GOD YOU FOCUS? A FOCUS ON FINDING SATISATION IN GOD – IS GOD YOUR SATISFACTION?

Gen 2:24 "The man will leave his father and mother and BE JOINED / CLEAVE / CLING to his wife; And they shall become one flesh."

Deuteronomy 10:20, "You shall fear the Lord your God; you shall serve him and cling to Him, and you shall swear by his name."

A FOCUS ON FINDING SATISATION IN GOD – IS GOD YOUR SATISFACTION? A FOCUS ON A YEARNING FOR GOD – IS GOD YOU FOCUS? A FOCUS ON FINDING SATISATION IN GOD – IS GOD YOUR SATISFACTION? A FOCUS ON FINDING PEACE IN GOD’S JUDGMENT – DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT VENGEANCE BELONGS TO THE LORD?
