The 2012 Northern Virginia Conference was on The Mountaintops of Scripture, giving a dispensational overview of the Bible.
The goals of this study are three-fold: first, to help the Bible student “think through” the Bible story along the lines of God’s promises and their fulfillment in the Person and work of our Lord Jesus Christ. The second objective is for us to gain a sense of how to “rightly divide” the Word of God, according to its own inherent pattern. In so doing, we are able to see its unity and minimize supposed contradictions. Finally, this overall grasp of Scripture will enable us to “tell the story” to others, keeping the focus where it belongs—on Jesus Christ the Savior.

Psalm 18 - The Demand for a Deliverer

Psalm 18 - The Demand for a Deliverer

We have positional holiness. David uses "righteousness" (Psa 18:24) as a picture of fellowship (Psa 86:2). David's righteousness has 3 witnesses (1Sa 26:23, 1Ki 14:8, 1Ki 11:4). God looks at our lives and desire of the heart - regardless of failure. We all fail but how we recover is paramount (Ecc 7:20, Psa 32:6). God gives strength for the way He wants us to go -- obedience (Psa 18:31-32). God gives stability (Psa 18:33-34) and increased impact (Psa 18:35-36). Only the eye of faith can see these things. David prays for victory (Psa 18:37-42). God takes the smallest instrument in nearest work in simplest way for the greatest victory (1Sa 17:47). God uses the weak and despised for His glory (Psa 18:43-45, Psa 113:7, Luk 1:53, Luk 3:5, 1Pe 5:5). David prays to his Deliverer (Psa 18:46-50). The Lord always is there to deliver (Heb 7:25). "Jesus" in New Testament is the name for "Deliverance" in the "Old Testament".
