“I will extol you, O LORD, for you have drawn me up…” (Psalm 30:1)

The Psalms teach us to be storytellers. They invite us to tell our individual stories to the corporate people of God so that they may learn from our mistakes, rejoice in our victories, and ultimately praise the goodness and mercy of God in all of our lives.

“Ascribe to the LORD, O heavenly beings, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.” (Psalm 29:1)

The Psalms present nature – even natural disasters – as part of God’s creation and under God’s rule. The natural world serves the Creator and his purposes, and the heavens declare his power, his sovereignty, and his majesty.

“To you, O LORD, I call; my rock, be not deaf to me…” (Psalm 28:1)

The Psalms are pledges of allegiance to God. They are declarations of our desire to be aligned with God and no one else. When the world says, “I reject God,” the psalms give us language to plant our flag in the ground and say, “I am his, and he is mine. I belong to the Lord.”

“The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?” (Psalm 27:1)

The Psalms find no contradiction between confidence and crisis. We sometimes believe we can only have one or the other, either entirely trusting or entirely doubting. But in the Psalms, we find hints of lament even in praise and seeds of faith even in darkest days.

“Vindicate me, O LORD, for I have walked in my integrity…” (Psalm 26:1)

The Psalms assume that we are praying to the God who already knows our prayers. He sees everything truly as it is, and because our vision is often flawed and distorted, we run to God for reality. He makes the final verdict. He is our standard of truth.

“To you, O LORD, I lift up my soul.” (Psalm 25:1)

The Psalms are teachers. They broaden our minds as we, the students, sit at our desks and study these carefully crafted prayers. The Psalms educate us with all the support, structure, and challenge that a good classroom demands. They invite us to learn how to talk with God.

Starting at Psalm 1 and ending at Psalm 150, Poor Bishop Hooper (the husband and wife duo of Jesse and Leah Roberts) released a simple, meditative song each week for nearly three years. In this interview, Mike talks to Jesse Roberts about his journey with the Psalms, the process of creating original music for the Psalms, and the impact of these prayers in their family and in their ministry.
