Know God
Songs of Degrees: This is a sermon series about Psalms 120 through 134. The Songs of Degrees, or the Songs of Ascents, are meant to teach us about our upward journey toward what God wills for His church. There are 15 of these songs and there were 1,500 years between the ministry of Moses and the earthly ministry of Jesus Christ. When God gave Moses the plan for the Tabernacle, it was the beginning of His plan to restore man, to rescue man. This plan, we know, was fulfilled by the death, resurrection, and ascension of our Lord and Savior.
In Part 3, we learned that God wants to protect the gates of our minds with His Word. We must know God’s Word. We must also know God. If we do not get to know Him and learn to submit to Him as the Master, then we will likely make the same mistake the Jewish priesthood made. They knew the Word of God but did not know God. Because they did not know Him, they judged Jesus Christ (God come in the flesh) as worthy of death according to their interpretation of God’s Word. We must learn to keep our eyes on God, for His mercies are new every morning.
