Uniquely clear and to the point – Psalm 32 contracts the heaviness and sorrow of sin versus the lightness and joy of God’s mercy. It is a passage of how freedom is found in confession and acknowledgement of sin and God’s true desire is for us all to be liberated from iniquity and transgressions.

God has the final word. There is no one more powerful than Him. His majesty and holiness are unmatched. There is no one like Him.

When He speaks – the waters tremble. When He speaks – we should listen.

In Psalm 28 - we again have the contrast between the wicked and the righteous but this time it highlights David’s expectations on God’s response to each.
