Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

Here we have another of David's Songs inserted into the text of the Book of Samuel.

In my own experience of studying Music in America, I have learned that some of the best popular music comes during times of intense national stress. Many of our patriot songs that we sing come from the era of The War Between The States, and Ragtime flowered and turned into Jazz during WW1. During the Great Depression, Blues and Jazz made their way into Pop Culture and we saw the Big Bands emerge, which reached full flower in the USO and Canteens of WW2. The stress of the 1960's gave us Classic Rock, and my music students still beg for the songs of that era. As we remember our Fallen this Memorial Day, it is interesting to note that they listened to the same songs we sing today.

David's music, born of suffering, loneliness, exile, sin, disappointment in family and friends, repentance, regret, and thankfulness have the added quality of being inspired by God's Holy Spirit. We who believe in Biblical Inspiration acknowledge that, although every word in the Psalms is given by God, every nuance and foible of David's personality is 100% in play as well. While it is mathematically impossible to have 200% of anything, nothing is impossible with God! That is why we can enjoy these Psalms nearly 3000 years later!

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.
