Who am I that You are mindful of me

How You love me it’s amazing
(It’s amazing it’s amazing)

SONG TITLE: GRAVES INTO GARDENS
Verse 1
I searched the world but it couldn’t fill me
Man’s empty praise and treasures that fade
Are never enough
Then You came along and put me back together
And every desire is now satisfied here in Your love
Chorus
Oh there’s nothing better than You
There’s nothing better than You
Lord there’s nothing
Nothing is better than You
Verse 2
I’m not afraid to show You my weakness
My failures and flaws
Lord You’ve seen them all
And You still call me friend
‘Cause the God of the mountain
Is the God of the valley
And there’s not a place
Your mercy and grace won’t find me again
Bridge
You turn mourning to dancing
You give beauty for ashes
You turn shame into glory
You’re the only one who can
Bridge
You turn graves into gardens
You turn bones into armies
You turn seas into highways
You’re the only one who can

SONG TITLE: GLORIOUD DAY
Verse 1
I was buried beneath my shame
Who could carry that kind of weight
It was my tomb ’til I met You
Verse 2
I was breathing but not alive
All my failures I tried to hide
It was my tomb ’til I met You
Chorus
(‘Cause when) You called my name (and)
I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness into Your glorious day
You called my name (and) I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness into Your glorious day
Verse 3
Now Your mercy has saved my soul
Now Your freedom is all that I know
The old made new Jesus when I met You
Bridge
I needed rescue my sin was heavy
But chains break at the weight of Your glory
I needed shelter I was an orphan
Now You call me a citizen of Heaven
When I was broken You were my healing
Now Your love is the air that I’m breathing
I have a future my eyes are open

SERMON NOTES with SCRIPTURE
SERMON TITLE: My Deliverer
TEACHER: Dr. Assad Saif
PASSAGE: Psalm 6
Sometimes the way we view our fathers or the absence of our fathers is how we view God.
Psalm 6:1 (NIV)
1 LORD, do not rebuke me in your anger
or discipline me in your wrath.
The Problem: Sometimes we can God as an angry father. (Psalm 6:1)
__________
Psalm 6:2-3 (NIV)
2 Have mercy on me, LORD, for I am faint;
heal me, LORD, for my bones are in agony.
3 My soul is in deep anguish.
How long, LORD, how long?
Observation: Your soul needs care. (vv.2-3)
Can you care for your own soul? Or do you expect others to do that?
__________
Psalm 6:4-7 (NIV)
4 Turn, LORD, and deliver me;
save me because of your unfailing love.
5 Among the dead no one proclaims your name.
Who praises you from the grave?
6 I am worn out from my groaning.
All night long I flood my bed with weeping
and drench my couch with tears.
7 My eyes grow weak with sorrow;
they fail because of all my foes.
Main Point: God is our deliverer. (vv. 4-7)
God does the saving… you don’t do that.
You live like you have been saved, that is your job.
God delivers and we walk in this world as ones who have been delivered.
__________
Psalm 6:8 (NIV)
8 Away from me, all you who do evil,
for the LORD has heard my weeping.
Observation: He is listening. (v. 8)
Question: Are you asking God to deliver you;
to rescue your soul when you are weary;
to save you from your circumstances?
__________
Psalm 6:9-10 (NIV)
9 The LORD has heard my cry for mercy;
the LORD accepts my prayer.
10 All my enemies will be overwhelmed with shame and anguish;
they will turn back and suddenly be put to shame.
The Challenge: Will you trust him? (vv. 9-10)
Hard Questions to ask yourself: Will I trust the lord? Do I love the lord? Do I trust the lord? Will I trust God in good times and bad?
