Psalms with Stories- Jesus- Our Priest and King

 


Psalms with Stories-Lesson 8
Jesus - Our Priest and King

This is the last lesson for the Summer Bible class
 from Visual Faith® Ministry.
The study was designed to tie together a story, 
(in this lesson it is Matthew 22),
with the supporting Psalm connections.

I have learned some great pointers about how
 God's Word is written to make ONE GREAT STORY. 

Psalm 110, a Psalm of David,
 is highlighted in Matthew 22.

It is set up earlier in Psalm 2.
Then it is pulled together in Acts 2:29-35 
and 1 Corinthians 15:20-28
right into the New Testament time.
Ancient conquerors had dominion over defeated kings.
Jesus sits at the right hand of God as risen king
 and will fulfill this prophecy at the end of days.
He will claim us in victory.
Jesus will crush every opposition.
His power transforms how we live and move
 in His kingdom here on earth.

The VFM practice of "Counterpanes" was introduced.
On a half sheet of paper rewrite parts or all
 of the Psalm in the study.
Can add other notes or meaningful take aways.
We started with an ink stamp and some doodle lines.

A simple way I add meditation time
 is to fill in the a,e and o
vowels with a colored pencil shade.
Maybe also the o's are purple.
The e's are pink.
The a's are blue.
This brings me back to look over
 the words scribed once more.
Making wonky lines adds a space to color in also.

In the WORD- Bible Study time.
In the WORD- heart reflection time.
In the WORD- prayer time.
The very best when a practice combines
 both head and heart to send us out as 
everyday missionaries in the Kingdom.
